CHAPTER 625: CHAPTER 533: BLOOD CENTIPEDE_2

"I understand, I understand."

Jiang Tao nodded vigorously.

Suddenly he thought of something and asked, "If I tell the truth, will you let me leave?"

The expressions of the fourth and fifth members of the Song Family immediately turned playful.

Are you kidding?

Let him leave?

So he can go back and report?

"That depends on your performance."

Song Wu smiled meaningfully.

"Okay, I’ll talk."

Once the bow is drawn, there’s no turning back. Besides, he realized that if he played tricks this time, the other party would definitely get serious.

"The person who killed your brother was Chen Fan."

As soon as these words fell, Chen Fan, who was rushing back to Anshan City thousands of miles away, suddenly paused his movement, his brows furrowing.

"Chen Fan?"

The three Song Family members exchanged glances, their astonishment reaching an extreme level.

"Second Brother, it’s really him! It’s that Chen Fan who killed Third Brother!" Fifth Brother of the Song Family clenched his fists, his veins bulging on his forehead, as if they could burst out at any moment.

The fourth of the Song Family looked at Song Wu, his tone shocked, "Second Brother, the person on the phone was telling the truth!"

"Hmm." Song Wu took a deep breath, tears streaming down his eyes.

He looked up at the ceiling, his lips trembling, "Third Brother, we finally know the real culprit who killed you. Please watch from heaven and see how we avenge you!"

In the next moment, he lowered his head, his expression fierce, "Say, what’s going on!? Why did people from the Martial Arts Association kill someone from the Song Family!? Tell us!"

His heart was filled with hatred; if it weren’t for considering that this person was still useful, he would have killed him on the spot!

"It wasn’t us stirring up trouble; it was those Feng Country people, pushing us too far." Jiang Tao gritted his teeth.

"Feng Country people?"

The fourth of the Qin Family wondered, "What does this matter have to do with the Feng Country people?"

"Of course, it has a connection. The whole situation started because of them." Jiang Tao quickly explained, "We were following the President into the rainforest to collect Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, but who could have thought that shortly after, we were targeted by a group of Feng Country people? They wanted us to hand over the treasures, or else they’d kill us."

"Then what?"

The fourth of the Qin Family calmly asked.

"Of course, we didn’t agree, and thus fought them. We were no match for them and had to surrender our Spatial Rings. But we never expected that those Feng Country people didn’t mean to let us leave alive! Their earlier words were all nonsense!"

Song Wu and the two others exchanged glances.

Regarding the behavior of Feng Country people, the Song Family might not be the most knowledgeable, but ranking within the top three was likely.

Especially since, due to John’s death, the Feng Country people had demanded a hefty compensation, causing bleeding hearts.

"What you said, what’s the connection with my brother’s death?" Song Wu impatiently asked.

"There’s a connection, there really is." Jiang Tao hurriedly said, "When those Feng Country people were about to kill us, Brother Chen, no, Chen Fan appeared. Actually, he didn’t intend to cause trouble; he just wanted to take us away. But those Feng Country people weren’t reasonable and targeted him instead."

"So?"

"So, Chen Fan fought back, killed several of them, and was about to continue when your brother appeared, bringing a Feng Country person along."

Hearing this, the three members of the Song Family simultaneously took a deep breath.

They vaguely guessed what happened.

"Continue." Song Wu’s voice was icy cold.

"Yes, yes."

Jiang Tao’s heart reached his throat.

"The newly arrived Feng Country person, seeing the scene, was furious, and ordered your brother to kill us. He complied but was not a match for Chen Fan, and together with the Feng Country person, died at Chen Fan’s hands."

"Bullshit!"

Fifth Brother of the Song Family cursed, "Third Brother may only be in the Second Realm of True Essence, but with the Treasure Saber, his combat power rivals that of True Essence Realm Third Realm Martial Artists. John’s strength isn’t negligible either. How could they both die so easily at the hands of an unknown figure?"

"That’s not it."

Jiang Tao smiled bitterly, "I saw the situation myself. John didn’t even get a chance to strike before being burned alive. Your brother did attack but could do nothing against Chen Fan and was killed in the blink of an eye."

"What? Are you sure?"

"What weapon did he use at the time? Was it a blue long blade?"

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes." Jiang Tao cautiously said, afraid of angering the three and getting slapped to death.

"How could this be?"

A chill crept up their spines.

Song Gang wielding the Ice Soul Cold Blade, even Song Wu, the strongest among them, wouldn’t be confident to easily defeat him, let alone subdue him effortlessly.

"What’s this Chen Fan’s true strength?" Song Wu asked.

"I really don’t know." Jiang Tao answered honestly, "According to headquarters’ information, he’s a True Essence Realm Martial Artist."

"Hmph."

Song Wu glared at him.

"Second Brother, that guy is probably a True Essence Realm Third Realm Martial Artist, and must have something powerful with him. Only then could he easily defeat our brother." Fourth Brother of the Song Family analyzed.

"You’re right." Song Wu nodded, "Regardless, dealing with him alone won’t suffice, we must inform Big Brother, mobilize more resources, and even ask the ancestors to intervene."

"!!!"

Upon hearing the last sentence, Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother of the Song Family’s eyes widened like copper bells.

Invite the ancestors?

Is it true?

In their impression, the ancestors had never left the ancestral land, and among them, only Big Brother was qualified to meet them.

Now, to deal with Chen Fan, they need to bother the ancestors?

Isn’t that overkill?

"Second Brother, this matter should be manageable with just us and Big Brother, right?"

"Yes, Second Brother, if the ancestors know about what’s happening, they might not be happy, right?"

The two worriedly said.

Blame it all on Chen Fan, causing significant losses to the Song Family!

If it weren’t for him, things wouldn’t escalate this far.

"I’m only considering the worst-case scenario."

Song Wu sighed, "Chen Fan is likely the next Celestial Realm Martial Artist under the Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association. His status in the association is evident. To capture him, Big Brother and we should be enough, but I’m worried he might have someone secretly protecting him."

"Second Brother means? A Celestial Realm Martial Artist protecting him?"

"No, can’t be. Jiangnan Sub-district Martial Arts Association only has two Celestial Realm Martial Artists. Stone has left, and Elder Wang is said to always stay at headquarters, never leaving."

"But what if Chen Fan is right beside Elder Wang?" Song Wu said.

The atmosphere instantly quieted.

Yes, such a talented individual receiving guidance from a Celestial Realm Martial Artist is reasonable, similar to the Song Family, where promising individuals are chosen by ancestors for tutelage.

For example, their second uncle was rumored to be the most likely among their father’s generation to enter the Celestial Realm.

"Second Brother, you’re right. Let’s call Big Brother and tell him what happened here. See how he’ll handle it." Fourth Brother of the Song Family said.

"Hmm, let Big Brother decide. After all, he’s the current Patriarch of the Song Family."
