Chapter 3911: Coffin-Stealing Thief!!

Of course.

They weren't digging up their own Family graves, but the graves of others!

Therefore, starting from the first-generation Old Ancestor of the Zhuge Family, he felt that something was amiss…

Since digging up graves was something they did often, he was bound to feel uneasy; if things went wrong, his own grave might be dug up too!

Consequently, he placed the ancestral graves in this location, protected by layers of Restrictions. Unless one possessed the Bloodline of the Zhuge Family, outsiders could never reach this place.

Once an outsider forcibly broke in, those with insufficient Realm would be directly obliterated by various Killing Arrays…

For those with a high Realm, the Zhuge Family's ancestral graves would simply self-destruct…

"That is the reason why my Family's ancestral graves are in this place…" Zhuge Wen said weakly.

"What is that scripture you mentioned?!" Xiao Fan asked curiously.

"I don't know either; I've never seen it…" Zhuge Wen shook his head helplessly.

"Are you lying to me?!" Xiao Fan's face darkened as he spoke angrily.

Zhuge Wen: "…"

"No, no… Why would I lie to you? Really, I'm not lying!" Zhuge Wen said hurriedly.

"Still not being honest?!"

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"… Xiao Fan immediately took action, punching Zhuge Wen several more times.

"Ah… I'm really not lying to you, I'm really not!" Zhuge Wen yelled.

"Fine, then keep talking…" Xiao Fan said indifferently.

"You… why did you hit me?!"

"Just testing you."

Zhuge Wen: "…"

Zhuge Wen gritted his teeth and told Xiao Fan all the secrets regarding the Zhuge Family.

There was no other choice; he had already fallen into the other party's hands, so what other option did he have but to speak?

Precisely because of this, the Zhuge Family had many enemies.

But the first-generation Old Ancestor of the Zhuge Family once lamented that the Zhuge Family had dug up too many graves, and it would surely damage their Karma in the future…

Therefore, the first-generation Old Ancestor of the Zhuge Family set a rule: whenever they robbed someone's ancestral grave in the future, they must not kill members of that Family… at most, they could only injure them!

They had to ensure they only injured and never killed, to minimize the Family's Karma!

"So, is that the reason why you only injured the people of the Xiahou Family when you went there, instead of killing them?" Xiao Fan asked, puzzled.

"Yes…" Zhuge Wen nodded.

"That's not right, though. You seemed to have severely injured several Guest Elders back then, and you even killed one, right…" Xiao Fan thought for a moment and asked, puzzled.

"Those Guest Elders aren't members of the Xiahou Family, so according to the ancestral teachings, I can kill them…" Zhuge Wen said indifferently.

"Fine." Xiao Fan shook his head helplessly; he felt that Zhuge Wen's words made a lot of sense.

Indeed. Guest Elders aren't members of the Xiahou Family, so killing them is fine.

"Wait a minute, how… how do you know about the Xiahou Family's affairs?!" Suddenly, Zhuge Wen looked at Xiao Fan with a shocked expression and intense gaze.

If he had only heard about it, the other party shouldn't know such details; even minor matters like whether or not he killed the Guest Elders were known to him!

Xiao Fan: "…"

"That is not something you should know." Xiao Fan said indifferently.

"You… could it be… did you steal the coffin of the Xiahou Family's Old Ancestor?!" Suddenly, Zhuge Wen realized the crux of the matter and said through gritted teeth.

Xiao Fan: "…"

"Don't slander me, understand?!" Xiao Fan's face darkened as he glared fiercely at Zhuge Wen.

"It must be you, it is you, it definitely is you, there's no mistake…" Zhuge Wen gritted his teeth, stood up menacingly, pointed at Xiao Fan, and said viciously: "Tell me, why… why did you set me up!!"

It was precisely because the Xiahou Family's Old Ancestor's coffin had gone missing that Zhuge Wen was captured by Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan and had now become a laborer for Heavenly Venerable Shenzhan.

If things went wrong, the other party might kill him at any moment!

The culprit behind all of this was the other party!! That damn Coffin-Stealing Thief!!

"Don't slander me… do you hear me?!" "Bang!" "Bang!"…

"You… even if you beat me to death, it must have been you who did it!" Zhuge Wen said, gritting his teeth and looking heartbroken.

"It wasn't me, don't blame me…"

"It is you, you've admitted it, haven't you!"

"Fine, I admit it." Xiao Fan shrugged and shook his head helplessly: "But I didn't steal that coffin; she followed me of her own volition."

"You… you liar, who are you trying to fool? Why would a coffin follow you?!" Zhuge Wen said, gritting his teeth viciously.

Xiao Fan shrugged and glanced at Xiahou Yan beside him.

The other party had no intention of revealing her identity, so naturally, Xiao Fan would not say anything more.

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, Zhuge Wen gritted his teeth: "You… why are you treating me like this?!"

"It's probably our fate, or perhaps this is the… retribution for your Zhuge Family."
