Chapter 976: Chapter 965: Aunt, You’ve Finally Woken Up
Under Ning Fan’s threat, Tian Tuyuan finally gave in. At this mont, he had no choice but to submit.
If he refused to reveal Situ Qingfeng’s whereabouts, it would result in the entire family being buried alongside that man.
At this mont, Tian Tuyuan could be said to hate Situ Qingfeng to the core. If it weren’t for that fool provoking Ning Fan, the god of death, how could the Tian Tuyuan family have suffered such a devastating blow?
Looking around, corpses were strewn everywhere. Even their Yin Yang Family’s prodigy had t a tragic end on the ground. As the Family Head here, how could his heart not ache!
But compared to the pain, Tian Tuyuan felt even more hatred in his heart—hatred for being too weak, hatred for Situ Qingfeng’s stupidity!
“A wise man submits to circumstances. Of course, you’re still an idiot. Now tell where Situ Qingfeng is, and I can spare you!”
“I’ll speak, I’ll speak! He’s inside, in a hidden chamber. In the main hall, there’s a landscape painting, and behind it is the chanism. Activating the chanism opens the hidden chamber—Situ Qingfeng is hiding there!”
At this mont, Tian Tuyuan dared not conceal anything from Ning Fan and imdiately revealed Situ Qingfeng’s hiding spot in full detail.
After learning Situ Qingfeng’s hiding spot, Ning Fan’s sword glead coldly, flashing across Tian Tuyuan’s throat. The other man’s eyes widened in disbelief as he fell to the ground, seemingly questioning Ning Fan’s earlier promise.
However, Ning Fan had no ti to concern himself. Indeed, he had said he would spare them, but he did not specify anyone in particular. The others who escaped, Ning Fan could leave them be, but this man? He would accompany Situ Qingfeng to the grave!
At the sa ti, Ning Fan wasn’t worried about Tian Tuyuan deceiving him. After all, he had vowed earlier—if necessary, he would dig up the ground and overturn the heavens to find Situ Qingfeng!
anwhile, inside the hidden chamber, Situ Qingfeng sat anxiously on the floor, having already been inford of the commotion outside.
Though the mbers of Tian Tuyuan’s family assured him not to panic, claiming Ning Fan would leave this ti without return, Situ Qingfeng still couldn’t calm his nerves.
“The sounds outside… have quieted?”
Situ Qingfeng pressed his ear against the wall. The noises from outside had gradually faded, seemingly giving way to an eerie calm.
He couldn’t tell if this was good or bad and could only pray the Yin Yang masters of Tian Tuyuan’s family had taken care of Ning Fan.
Bang—
Suddenly, the walls began to shift, and the once dim chamber beca progressively brighter as the walls moved.
“What’s going on?”
Situ Qingfeng muttered instinctively. Despite the hidden chamber being opened, no one appeared outside.
He glanced around, and a waft of blood stung his nostrils. Sensitive as he was, Situ Qingfeng furrowed his brows and cautiously peeked out, scrutinizing the surroundings.
“Situ Qingfeng…”
A voice, from nowhere, seed to drift over. It instantly turned Situ Qingfeng’s face pale with fright.
“Who’s there? Human or ghost!”
Situ Qingfeng scanned all directions, but no matter how he searched, he couldn’t locate the owner of the voice.
“Your ti of death has co!”
Slash!
A cold glint struck first; Situ Qingfeng’s eyes widened. His throat burned with a sharp pain, and instinctively he clutched at it. Blood gushed through his trembling fingers.
Blood surged up as Situ Qingfeng coughed uncontrollably, collapsing onto the ground!
One swift slash to the throat—Ning Fan, concealed in the shadows, coldly watched Situ Qingfeng writhing on the floor with voids of emotion in his eyes.
Remaining cloaked in invisibility, Ning Fan gave Situ Qingfeng no chance to react. To kill him using his stealth ability could even be considered an honor bestowed upon the man.
“Die slowly, in despair…”
Ning Fan’s mocking laughter echoed in Situ Qingfeng’s ears, dripping with scorn.
As foretold by Ning Fan, Situ Qingfeng’s eyes now exhibited only resentnt and despair.
Feeling the creeping approach of death, the gradual suffocation rendered the process of Situ Qingfeng’s demise extraordinarily excruciating!
Step, step, step—
Footsteps sounded from sowhere, growing increasingly distant. In Situ Qingfeng’s imagination, this must be the adversary departing with finesse.
…
“Mmm…”
In Zhonghai City’s hospital, inside an advanced ward, Xu Rongfei slowly opened her eyes, dressed in a hospital gown.
“Aunt! You’re finally awake!”
As Xu Rongfei’s eyes fluttered open, a delighted voice rang out beside her.
“Where is this… What happened to …”
Xu Rongfei murmured vaguely, still faintly confused.
She had been asleep for two whole days here. Severely dehydrated, nearly in shock, and ntally stretched thin, Xu Rongfei was extrely frail when delivered here.
After treatnt, while Xu Rongfei’s condition was stabilized, she remained unconscious in bed for two days.
“Aunt, you must lie down and not try to get up. You’ve only just recovered and need ample rest!”
Seeing Xu Rongfei move, Xu Xiaoqing hurriedly stepped forward to keep her down.
Only now did Xu Rongfei regain her awareness, feeling her body still weak. Rest seed a necessity.
“It’s you, Xiaoqing…” Xu Rongfei called out Xu Xiaoqing’s na instinctively, then asked, “Why am I here?”
Her mind was still muddled, and only now did Xu Rongfei begin piecing together what happened.
Xu Xiaoqing didn’t hesitate to reply, “Aunt, don’t you rember? Ning Fan brought you here!”
“Ning Fan brought here?”
Xu Rongfei froze montarily, a flicker of surprise crossing her beautiful eyes. In that instant, she recalled the sequence of events and felt a twinge of fear.
Situ Qingfeng had taken her captive, and it was Ning Fan who rescued her!
“But Aunt, what exactly happened?”
Xu Xiaoqing asked curiously at this point. She had only heard from Ning Fan that Xu Rongfei had been admitted to the hospital, but had no idea what Xu Rongfei had experienced or what truly transpired.
“It’s nothing…” Xu Rongfei thought briefly but refrained from ntioning anything about Situ Qingfeng.
Seeing Xu Rongfei unwilling to elaborate, Xu Xiaoqing dared not dig further. She was simply puzzled why Xu Rongfei, who was heading to the airport, ended up getting in trouble, and Ning Fan was the one who brought her to the hospital.
In fact, Ning Fan was rely responsible for the rescue. The person who brought Xu Rongfei to the hospital was Tulip. Ning Fan simply found it convenient to claim credit when explaining to Xu Ruolan and the others.
“Ah, you’re awake already? That’s wonderful!”
Suddenly, the hospital door swung open, and Ning Fan entered alongside Xu Ruolan.
Hearing the familiar voice, Xu Rongfei instinctively turned her gaze toward him.
“Aunt! You’re finally awake!”
