C868 Why Are You Here
It was too fast and too close. Ye Bufan had nowhere to run. However, this was a matter of life and death. His reaction wasn't slow at all. He placed the corpse of the chief protector on his shoulder in front of him. The red-dressed woman cried out in surprise and withdrew the silver light. She gave up on this attack.
Ye Bufan retreated quickly. He stood in the distance and panted heavily. He stared at the woman in red coldly. This woman seemed to be stronger than before. Luckily, the opponent had given up on attacking. Otherwise, the Great Protector's body wouldn't be able to stop the silver light. At that time, Ye Bufan would definitely suffer serious injuries.
"Why are you here?" Red Shirt opened his red lips and let out a clear and cold voice.
Ye Bufan took a deep breath and subconsciously placed the corpse of the Chief Guardian on his shoulder. Then, he said faintly, "Why can't I appear here?" At the same time, he looked at the red clothed woman with a pair of fearful eyes. He was extremely vigilant in his heart. He was ready to prevent her from launching a sudden attack at any time.
The sneak attack just now had made Ye Bufan break out in cold sweat. If he hadn't been 120% alert, he really might have died at the hands of the woman in red.
"You know him?" The woman in red pointed at the body of the Chief Guardian on the ground and said with a sad tone. Ye Bufan was stunned for a moment because he could feel the grief of the woman in red. He was very confused. Could the woman in red be related to the dead Chief Guardian?
Ye Bufan nodded. This was not a secret, so he admitted it calmly.
"He is my father. I didn't think that he would go ahead of me."
What!? Ye Bufan had never been as shocked as today. The relationship between the Chief Guardian and Zhu Yeqing was shocking enough. Now, the woman in red was the daughter of the Chief Guardian. If there was a possibility that there was such a relationship between Zhu Yeqing and the Chief Guardian... The woman in red was a completely unrelated person. How could there still be a connection between her and the Chief Guardian?
After carefully looking at the woman in red's beautiful face, Ye Bufan then looked at the chief enforcer. There was nothing in common between the two of them, but the woman in red had personally admitted the relationship between the two of them. Furthermore, there was no need for her to lie. There was no doubt in Ye Bufan's heart.
"Do you know who the murderer is?" The woman in red's chest heaved up and down as she spoke in a hurried voice.
The question she asked was exactly the question that Ye Bufan wanted to know. Shaking his head, Ye Bufan said expressionlessly, "Until now, I have not found any clues, but it should have something to do with the person who killed your brother."
"My brother?"
The woman in red was obviously stunned. She said in a daze, "What my brother? I only have my father as my family. I don't have any brothers or sisters. Where did you hear that I have a brother?"
"Zhu Yeqing is not..." Ye Bufan subconsciously spat it out. Suddenly, he realized that something was not right. The rest of the words were stopped in a hurry. No, the chief enforcer could not lie. It was even more impossible for the woman in red to lie. However, their words had two completely different meanings. Ye Bufan was also confused for a moment.
"Zhu Yeqing..." The woman in red lowered her head. After a while, she looked up and said, "The Zhu Yeqing you are talking about should be my uncle, not my brother. You are mistaken."
Brother? Uncle? This time, Ye Bufan was completely confused. He thought that the woman in red didn't know who Zhu Yeqing was. Who knew that not only did she know who Zhu Yeqing was, she even knew who he was. However, it was completely different from what Ye Bufan had heard from the Great Protector. He was an uncle. One was an uncle. Don't think that it was just two words. However, the difference was huge.
As a father, the chief enforcer could not lie. The woman in red must have gotten the wrong information. That was why she thought Zhu Yeqing was his uncle and not his brother.
Thinking of this, Ye Bufan secretly smiled bitterly in his heart. The relationship between the family was too messy. To be honest, if it wasn't for the experiment, he wouldn't have bothered to ask.
"Since you are here, I will leave the body of the Chief Guardian to you. I will be leaving now. " Those who knew the secret were all dead. This trip to the Earth Fiend Sect was destined to be fruitless. Ye Bufan was extremely disappointed. He had no interest in staying here any longer.
The woman in red nodded. For the first time, she revealed a smile and said gratefully, "Thank you."
Ye Bufan waved his hand and did not say anything. Instead, he turned around and left. However, when he walked into the hall, his facial expression changed drastically. His legs suddenly stopped moving.
No, that's not right. The woman in red was as cold as ice. Why did she suddenly change her attitude today?
There was another important point. The inner room was only one wall away from the hall. If it was a conversation in the main hall, the inner room would definitely be able to hear it clearly. Zhu Yeqing's screams, the screams of the chief enforcer, Ye Bufan could clearly hear them when he walked out of the building. The woman in red would definitely be able to hear them as well.
However, she didn't rush out at that time...
Zhu Yeqing's corpse!
Ye Bufan exclaimed in his heart as he thought about it. He remembered when the chief guardian carried Zhu Yeqing's corpse into the inner room, but he didn't see Zhu Yeqing's corpse in the inner room. Only the woman in red was lying on the bed. Thinking of this, Ye Bufan realized that something was not right.
He quietly turned around and carefully walked to the door of the inner room. He secretly looked inside and saw that the woman in red was moving the body of the chief enforcer on the ground. After moving the body onto the bed, the woman in red's heavy breathing could be heard in the inner room. Suddenly, a long red tube extended out of her body. It plunged into the body of the chief enforcer.
Ye Bufan immediately covered his mouth and suppressed the shock in his heart. He was afraid that he would make a sound. Sure enough, what he saw had confirmed his guess. The woman in red was indeed unusual. He was afraid that she had nothing to do with the Chief Guardian. Furthermore, Ye Bufan was sure that she was the one who killed the Chief Guardian and Zhu Yeqing.
As time passed, the body of the Chief Guardian started shrinking. In the end, it became a dried up human skin. At this moment... The woman in red slowly put away the red tube and let out a satisfied moan. She casually threw the dried human skin under the bed.
Ye Bufan shifted his gaze and saw another human skin under the bed. Although he couldn't see the details, he was sure that this human skin belonged to Zhu Yeqing.0
You almost fooled the insidious woman.
Ye Bufan was furious, but he quickly calmed down. The woman in red actually had the same ability as the flower in the Space of Consciousness. She could produce a red tube that could suck human flesh and blood. Ye Bufan had witnessed such a strange ability once. He was still scared and didn't dare to act rashly for the time being.
The woman in red laid down on the bed again, and her heavy breathing gradually calmed down. Ye Bufan carefully looked at her. Due to the distance and angle, he couldn't see whether the woman in red had fallen asleep. For a moment, he didn't dare to go in and take a look.
Ye Bufan shook his head slightly. He suddenly remembered that his goal was to obtain the secret of the experiment. As for the other matters, they weren't as important as joining the City Lord Contest. As for what the woman in red wanted to do, it had nothing to do with Ye Bufan. Furthermore, Ye Bufan didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Even if the woman in red killed the two guardians, Ye Bufan had no interest in avenging them. Helping the guardians collect their corpses was a spur of the moment. As for risking his life to provoke the woman in red... Unless Ye Bufan's brain was flooded with water, he would never do it.
After that, he carefully turned around and walked outside. His footsteps were the lightest. Afraid that he would wake up the woman in red lying on the bed, Ye Bufan took a deep breath when he walked outside. If the woman in red discovered him, it would be a fierce battle of life and death.
Ye Bufan didn't stop and left the Earth Fiend Sect.
After six hours, Ye Bufan had indeed left the Earth Fiend Sect. However, he didn't return to the main city. Instead, he was trapped in an unfamiliar place. He couldn't even find the way back to the Earth Fiend Sect. He was completely lost. He couldn't see anyone around him. He couldn't ask for directions even if he wanted to.
Mountains surrounded him. The mountains were densely packed with forests. Ye Bufan was currently in a canyon. After coming out of the Earth Fiend Sect, he kept moving forward, and went deep into the mountains. The further he went, the more regret he felt, because there were too many forks in the road in the valley. Ye Bufan did not deliberately remember which path he had entered from. Even if he remembered the direction of the Earth Fiend Sect, he would not be able to walk out of the maze.
"Big Stone, do you remember the path you came from?"
"I don't remember!" No one knew what he was busy with, but Big Stone seemed to have no time to answer Ye Bufan's question. He said vaguely.
Ye Bufan shook his head with a bitter smile. He thought to himself that even if he did not get lost, he would not be able to walk out of the city and return to the main city. Because when he came, the Great Protector made a strange sound and used some kind of special method to come to the Earth Fiend Sect. Ye Bufan did not know the specific method. Now that the Great Protector was dead, it seemed like all the way out of the Earth Fiend Sect had been blocked.
There was no other way. He could only enter the God Domain through the Book of God. However, he had to wait for three days before returning to the Immortal Domain. In terms of time, he still had time to participate in the elimination round. Besides, Ye Bufan didn't want to waste any more time in this place. In any case, he had already lost his way.
After opening the Book of God, a dazzling golden light flashed. After that, Ye Bufan once again arrived in God Domain.
When his vision returned to normal, Ye Bufan was shocked to find that he was trapped in a transparent crystal box. It was filled with a large amount of blood colored liquid, and the smell of blood was extremely pungent. It seemed to be the blood of some kind of living creature or human.
Ye Bufan punched the box hard. With a loud bang, there was no trace left on the box. Just as Ye Bufan was about to try the second punch, he suddenly heard a series of hurried footsteps.
Someone was coming!
At this moment, Ye Bufan remembered to observe his surroundings.
This was a spacious house, and there were more than a dozen crystal boxes on the floor. It was exactly the same as the one that trapped Ye Bufan, and there was a person trapped inside. However, the difference was that Ye Bufan was very clear-headed, but the others had their eyes closed. They couldn't hear the sound of breathing, as if they had fallen into a coma. Perhaps it was because they had died a long time ago.
