Bao Zhen Zi

Chapter 289 Please Accept a Bow from Your Humble Servant

Heard that something had happened to Shen Ruobing’s family, Cheng Xiaofan’s heart was filled with a premonition, this might be related to the dream last night.

"Who in her family had an accident?" Cheng Xiaofan asked calmly.

Lu Shengming said, "Shen Ruobing has an uncle named Shen Lixia. Last night, he suddenly swept away a lot of Shen family assets and fled!"

"Immediately, someone discovered that a bodyguard he hired was found dead in his home, with five holes in his entire head, as if his head had been pierced by some giant claw."

"This person, nominally Shen Lixia's private bodyguard, was actually a rogue martial artist who was skilled at using his divine soul to kill and steal in dreams."

"This bodyguard, named Ye Kezi, has long been on our Jianghu Affairs Bureau's list. We suspect he was killed in a dream!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaofan chuckled and said, "Old Lu, you're babbling on to me about all this, as if it has nothing to do with me."

"You don't possibly suspect that I killed that Ye Kezi in a dream, do you?"

"No, no, no!"

Lu Shengming quickly smiled, "Mr. Cheng, you misunderstand. How could I possibly suspect you of Ye Kezi's death? That's completely out of the question!"

"What makes me curious, though, is that after Ye Kezi was killed in a dream, Shen Lixia fled overnight. This inevitably raises some doubts. Could Ye Kezi's death be related to Shen Lixia?"

"Furthermore, someone discovered that on the bedboard where Ye Kezi died, there were finger marks he carved. Upon closer inspection, the finger marks formed four characters: 'The Secret Scroll Has Appeared!'"

"Mr. Cheng, the main reason I'm calling you is to ask for your opinion on how you would view such a matter?"

Cheng Xiaofan chuckled, "You want me to look? It's very easy to look. I can sit and look, stand and look, lie down and look, I can look however I want."

"The question is, how do you, Old Lu, see it?"

"..." Could this conversation continue?

Lu Shengming's face immediately darkened. Couldn't you be more serious and speak properly?

He felt it was always so difficult to have a serious conversation with the other party.

"Old Lu, if there's nothing else, I'm hanging up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Xiaofan had already hung up the phone.

Hmph!

Playing mind games with me?

You're far from it!

It was just that Cheng Xiaofan didn't expect that the person who wanted to snatch Shen Ruobing's secret scroll in the dream was the bodyguard by Shen Ruobing's second uncle's side.

It was obvious that Ye Kezi was acting under Shen Lixia's orders to enter Shen Ruobing's dream to snatch that brocade box.

It seemed that Shen Lixia was also a craftsman cultivator, just like Shen Ruobing, who had always wanted to obtain the "Thirty-Six Forms of Shen Family Wedding Bed Secret Scrolls" painted by his ancestor Shen Yanwang.

It was also possible that Shen Lixia had long anticipated that the secret scroll painted by Shen Yanwang would eventually fall into the hands of his niece Shen Ruobing.

Because of this, Shen Lixia had hired Ye Kezi at a high price and had been monitoring Shen Ruobing's divine soul in dreams.

Everyone dreams, and the thoughts of people in dreams are sometimes beyond their control.

Shen Lixia felt that by secretly monitoring Shen Ruobing's dreams, he would sooner or later find the whereabouts of the Shen family's ancestral secret scroll.

However, Shen Lixia never expected that Ye Kezi would die tragically in a dream last night, with his entire head pierced by the claws of some monster.

The four characters left by Ye Kezi on the bed naturally told Shen Lixia that the secret scroll had appeared and was with Shen Ruobing.

Unfortunately, not only did he fail to snatch the secret scroll from Shen Ruobing's hands, but he was instead killed by some monster by her side.

Shen Lixia, afraid that he, the mastermind, had been exposed by Ye Kezi, could only sweep away the Shen family's assets and flee before dawn.

This was Cheng Xiaofan's deduction.

There was no other explanation.

Cheng Xiaofan had to admire Lu Shengming's ability. As soon as the Shen family in C city had an incident, he received the news and even tracked him down.

The reason he tracked him down was because Shen Ruobing had come to Zhuxi Village.

Shen Ruobing arrived at Cheng Xiaofan's place that day, and the incident happened that night. To those who were paying attention, it was indeed too coincidental.

As for the four characters "The Secret Scroll Has Appeared," they sparked the imagination and contained too much information.

Cheng Xiaofan was not a fool, how could he not know that Lu Shengming's call to him was to get some clue from him?

The question was, would Cheng Xiaofan reveal anything to him?

He certainly wouldn't tell Lu Shengming that he had transformed into a flying dragon in the dream and killed Ye Kezi with one blow.

Thinking of the scene of killing Ye Kezi in the dream, Cheng Xiaofan even felt afraid of himself. 138 Reading Network

At that time, seeing the saber in Ye Kezi's hand about to fall on Shen Ruobing, he uncontrollably transformed into a golden dragon, and his entire body was filled with a violent aura.

That aura seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth at that moment.

This dragon power within him was truly violent!

Cheng Xiaofan sighed and took a walk along the bank of Baiyong Lake.

The gazes of the beauties in the villa were truly unbearable for him, so he could only stroll and admire the lake and mountain scenery.

Bathed in the morning sun, with a slight autumn breeze blowing against his face.

It made Cheng Xiaofan feel refreshed from head to toe.

He should plan this place well in the future and turn it into his private domain.

Although he dared not openly boast, "This mountain is mine, this tree is mine. If you want to pass, pay the toll," he could do it in another way.

Anyone who came here... except for his relatives and friends, had to pay.

As Cheng Xiaofan was daydreaming about somersaulting in the sky and diving into the water, his phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was from his own goddess Bai.

"Yiling, what's wrong?" Cheng Xiaofan asked as soon as he pressed the answer button.

Bai Yiling said, "Xiaofan, come back. Shen Ruobing just received a call from C city. Something big happened at home, and she has to rush back immediately!"

"My other sisters also have to go back. Please come back!"

"Okay, I'll be back right away!" Cheng Xiaofan put away his phone, looked around, and was stunned.

He had walked all the way to the other side of the lake from the bamboo villa while strolling.

Was his strolling speed about to catch up to the speed of light?

Cheng Xiaofan knew that the beauties in the villa must be surrounding Shen Ruobing and asking her about everything, so they wouldn't be looking in his direction. He then used the "Roaming Dragon" movement technique, stepped on the waves of the lake, and crossed the lake like lightning, arriving at the opposite bank.

As soon as he arrived in front of the bamboo villa, seven beauties led by Bai Yiling were walking out of the villa.

"Master Cheng, please accept this humble bow from me!"

Seeing Cheng Xiaofan, Shen Ruobing hurried forward and, with a thud, knelt before him.
