Chapter 4779: If You Want Me to Shut Up, I’ll Shut Up

"Xiao Xuan! How dare you speak to the Lady like that! You must be tired of living!"

"Xiao Xuan! Your time has come!"

"This isn't about the Purple Lotus anymore! Xiao Xuan! You're asking for death!"

"…"

The group of Prodigies following Sha Mushi were all brimming with Killing Intent, intending to use this as an excuse to kill Xiao Xuan and seize the Purple Lotus.

That way, Sha Mushi wouldn't be able to keep it all for herself, and the Purple Lotus would be theirs.

"Wait!" Sha Mushi said with a dark expression and a heavy voice, "Did I tell you to make a move?!"

"But, Lady… he was disrespectful to you!"

"And what about you?" Sha Mushi asked coldly. "Did I tell you to act? You're moving now! How is your behavior any different from Xiao Xuan's?!"

Hearing this, the Prodigies fell silent, and none of them dared to continue.

Sha Mushi let out a breath and looked at Xiao Fan. "You… how dare you speak to me like that just now! Aren't you afraid of death?!"

From Sha Mushi's eyes, Xiao Fan could sense Killing Intent…

"No." Xiao Fan shook his head.

"Why?!"

"Because those are the rules you established yourself! I am merely following them. If I am wrong, then it proves you are wrong as well!" Xiao Fan said calmly, staring intently into Sha Mushi's eyes, locking gazes with her.

"You? Heh… fine." Sha Mushi was momentarily stunned, then she began to laugh.

"The Purple Lotus was obtained by Xiao Xuan himself! It rightfully belongs to him… As for Zu Dan's death, the cause cannot be determined, so we will not pursue it for now," Sha Mushi said after a moment's hesitation.

As soon as she spoke, the Prodigies were all filled with dissatisfaction.

Without a doubt, Sha Mushi did not intend to hold Xiao Fan accountable.

"Lady, if we do this, wouldn't it…"

"Shut up! Do you wish to defy my orders?!" Sha Mushi was enraged, glaring fiercely at the person who spoke.

"No, no… I wouldn't dare." The person who had just spoken shook their head repeatedly, trembling with fear and not daring to say another word.

Xiao Fan smiled; he hadn't expected Sha Mushi to handle it this way.

This outcome was naturally good for him, as he wouldn't have to fall out with Sha Mushi and her group.

After all, when Xiao Li entered the Ancient Burial Holy Land later, the person he was most likely to contact was Sha Mushi. By staying by Sha Mushi's side, he had the best chance of meeting Xiao Li.

This was also why Xiao Fan hadn't left and instead followed Sha Mushi's group deeper into the Ancient Burial Holy Land.

"Alright, let's go." Sha Mushi let out a breath and was the first to fly off.

The others were unconvinced, but since Sha Mushi had spoken, they couldn't say much.

Xiao Fan smiled and didn't rush to leave. Instead, he went to the pool of blood, which all belonged to Zu Dan…

The others were surprised, unsure of what Xiao Fan was planning to do.

Soon, Xiao Fan found Zu Dan's storage ring and collected it.

This scene shocked everyone…

Then Xiao Fan flew up and chased after Sha Mushi.

No one had expected that after killing Zu Dan, he wouldn't even let the man's storage ring go.

Xiao Fan's behavior infuriated the experts following Sha Mushi, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Soon, Xiao Fan caught up to Sha Mushi…

Looking at Sha Mushi, Xiao Fan couldn't help but smile.

"What are you laughing at?!" Sha Mushi asked with a dark expression, looking at Xiao Fan beside her.

She felt a sense of familiarity from him, the same kind of feeling Wei Zhongshan gave her… In fact, Sha Mushi wasn't sure if her decision not to pursue the matter was because of the rules she had set or because he reminded her too much of Wei Zhongshan.

"Heh… it's nothing. I just think you're quite beautiful, really." Xiao Fan laughed.

Hearing this, Sha Mushi was stunned, because Xiao Fan had said the exact same thing before.

"You… shut up!" Sha Mushi hesitated for a moment before snapping at Xiao Fan.

"Oh, oh, oh… Alright, if you want me to shut up, I'll shut up." Xiao Fan smiled and said nothing more.

As Xiao Fan followed Sha Mushi's group forward, he sent a portion of his Divine Soul into the star chart to study the Purple Lotus…

The Purple Lotus was anything but simple, containing an unimaginable amount of the Power of Hongmeng.
