Chapter 1684  Xiao Zhan

"You can kill me now." Xiao Tian shut his eyes after saying that.

'I'm sorry, everyone.'

He added in his head.

To his surprise, the young lady did not kill him.

Sure, she swung her sword after hearing his words.

However, her target was not him but the huge tree behind him.

"Why? Why didn't you kill me?" he wanted to know why the young lady did not kill him because it was the best opportunity to kill him.

The young lady did not answer his question.

She only stared at him for three seconds before finally turning around and walking away.

"Wait! Tell me. Why didn't you kill me?" Xiao Tian still wanted to know the reason why she let him go.

Like before, the young lady ignored him.

She even did not turn her head to look at him as if she did not hear his question.

After Xiao Tian saw her disappear into the distance, he leaned his back against the big tree again.

'Thank you.'

He thanked her for giving him a second chance to live.

'I will make sure to repay your kindness in the future.'

He coughed blood again.

Xiao Family's Bar, Private Room.

Xiao Jianhong and Xiao Yaling were drinking red wine in a private room. Both of them were delighted, especially Xiao Jianhong.

Xiao Jianhong was thrilled because he believed Xiao Tian would lose one of his arms and legs today.

This was the reason why a burst of happy laughter escaped from his mouth because he finally could teach Xiao Tian a lesson.

"Haha." He expressed his happiness by drinking more red wine. "I'm sure our brother is dying right now."

"It seems like you really hate him, brother." Xiao Yaling sipped her red wine elegantly.

"Of course. Haha." He laughed again.

As they were drinking red wine happily, a young lady stepped into the private room.

If Xiao Tian saw the young lady, he would know her immediately because he met her a few minutes ago.

Xiao Yaling shifted her gaze from her brother to the young lady. "Oh, you have returned?"

"I want to give my report about my mission, young miss." Like before, the young lady was still wearing a black mask.

"How is it? Have you cut off any of his legs and arms?" Xiao Jianhong inquired.

"I'm sorry, young master Jianhong. I failed in carrying my mission." The young lady lied to him.

His face turned ugly after hearing her words. "Why? What made you fail to complete your mission?"

"I also want to hear your answer because you always successfully completed your missions before." Xiao Yaling said as she swirled her wine.

"An old man suddenly appeared and saved him when I was about to cut off his right arm. That old man is a powerful martial artist, and I'm not his opponent." The young lady made an excuse.

"An old man?" like before, Xiao Yaling swirled her wine. "You are not lying to us, right? Lan Ruoxi!"

"I'm telling the truth, young miss." Lan Ruoxi kept lying to them.

"Damn it!" Xiao Jianhong hit the table angrily.

He was furious because she failed to cut off one of Xiao Tian's legs and arms.

"Lan Ruoxi, during your mission of monitoring his movements, you are not in love with him, right?" Xiao Yaling threw another question at Lan Ruoxi.

Yes, Lan Ruoxi was always with Xiao Tian because she got a mission from Xiao Yaling, and that mission was to monitor Xiao Tian's movements.

At first, Lan Ruoxi never lied and always gave reports based on facts, but everything changed three years ago.

She started to lie in his reports and never reported everything that was very important to Xiao Tian to Xiao Yaling.

"I have no special feelings for him, young Miss Yaling." Lan Ruoxi responded instantly.

candidate to be the Ruler like us?" even though Xiao Yaling was angry, but she could still control herself.

"Then tell me. Why don't you tell me that Xiao Tian is also a candidate to be the Ruler like us?" even though Xiao Yaling was angry, but she could still control herself.

"That's right. Why don't you tell us about it?" Xiao Jianhong asked angrily.

He could not control himself ever since Lan Ruoxi said she failed to complete her mission.

"When I was about to deliver the letter, I was stopped by two people." Lan Ruoxi lied again. "I lost my letter during our fight. I forgot to write about it when I made a new report."

"Fool!" Xiao Jianhong threw his red wine at Lan Ruoxi's body.

Lan Ruoxi did not do or say anything. She kept standing straight as if he did not throw his red wine at her.

"Remember this, Lan Ruoxi. Your mother's life is in our hands. We will stop treatment if you show any signs of betraying us. You remember this, right?" Xiao Yaling uttered.

"I remember it, young miss." Lan Ruoxi responded immediately.

"You can leave now." Xiao Yaling believed her brother would do something to Lan Ruoxi if she remained with them.

Lan Ruoxi was still of use to her, so she did not want her brother to do anything to her.

"Understood." After saying that, Lan Ruoxi walked out of the private room.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" like before, Xiao Jianhong roared angrily.

"Calm down, brother." She tried to calm her brother. "Even if we fail today, we can make plans again later. We still have a lot of time, so I'm sure there will come a time when you can play with him however you want."

"Hmf!" He crossed his arms over his chest.

'I'm still angry over this.'

He said in his head.

She rose to her feet and looked at her brother. "Let's go now. We will go meet sister Mei now."

"Alright." His face instantly turned happy.

Unknown House, Bedroom.

Three people were in a big bedroom; a young man, a grown man, and a young lady.

The young man was unconscious on the bed, while the grown man was sitting on a chair and looking at the young man.

As for the young lady, she was standing behind the grown man. Like the grown man, she also looked at the young man.

However, no one could see what expression was on her face when she looked at the young man because she was wearing a mask.

Silver Fox!

Yes, the young woman standing behind the grown man was none other than Silver Fox, the young man's secret bodyguard.

After killing her enemies, she immediately saved Xiao Tian and brought him to their hidden base.

This was the reason why Xiao Tian was in a bedroom because she brought him to their base earlier.

"Master, we must take revenge." Silver Fox spoke abruptly. "They broke their promise, so we should attack them immediately."

"Not yet. We can't attack them openly yet." The grown man responded.

If one saw the faces of the grown man and the young man, that person would know right away that they were a father and a son.

Their eyes, hair, nose, lips, and chin; everything looked the same.

It was as if the grown man was the adult version of the young man because they resembled each other.

The name of the grown man was Xiao Zhan, Xiao Tian's father.

"Then when will we attack them?" Silver Fox inquired.
