Chapter 407: Chapter 407: Incitement and Sabotage _1

Jun Tian Grand Hotel rooftop.

“Wa... wa la xi ka me...”

Oda Tenshu’s voice trembled with fear as he babbled a long string of incoherent words.

“Speak human language!” Xu Fan said impatiently.

Oda Chihide, with cold sweat streaming down his forehead, hastily switched to Chinese, “I am the Young Master of the Island Country’s Oda clan, Oda Chihide. The ninja... um, he was brought by me; his name is Oda Tenshu.”

Xu Fan’s gaze turned frosty. As expected, birds of a feather flock together.

Actually, from the very first glance he took at Oda Chihide, he understood that this man and the Jonin were together because they came from the same family and shared a blood connection; their auras were related.

Furthermore, seeing Oda Chihide’s luxurious attire and how he was treated as an honored guest here, it was evident his status was not ordinary. It was possible that the Jonin’s relationship with him was like that between Huang Yechun and Xu Qiyin—a master-servant relationship.

Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for the Jonin to take action against Xu Fan on his own initiative; it had to have been instigated by Oda Chihide.

In that case, Xu Fan could not just turn a blind eye to this. He had always believed in repaying debts and seeking revenge for grievances, and this matter had to be pursued.

Since the Jonin had committed suicide, Xu Fan had nothing to say, but if he met the real mastermind, how could he overlook it?

However, he had just promised Qian Zongsheng not to lay hands on ordinary people, and since Oda Chihide had no cultivation, it was rather difficult for him to go back on his word under their “surveillance.”

Naturally, he also disdained to do so.

But if he simply let this man go, Xu Fan would not feel satisfied. Thus, he sneered, “Chihide, Tenshu... You’re really putting on quite a show. Can your ‘performance’ be eaten as food?”Nôv(el)B\\jnn

His words were sharp and unpleasant, aimed at angering the man. If this person had even a trace of backbone, he would naturally argue back, unable to help being provoked into a quarrel, or even just speaking loudly would be enough excuse for Xu Fan to instantly take him out, not letting the grudge last overnight!

His goal was clear, but the situation did not unfold as he had imagined.

“Yes, yes... You are right in your teachings. The moment I return to the Island Country, I will immediately change this damned name.”

Oda Chihide was so abjectly servile it was in his bones as he repeatedly nodded and bowed, speaking in a low and obsequious voice, “I’ve already thought of a new name, I will change it to Oda Senki.”

Qin Haowu broke out in a fine sweat, his breathing becoming rapid.

Despite being fearful of Xu Fan’s strength, Gao Ziling was always put off by Xu Fan’s behavior and impatiently said, “Protector Xu, Xu Qiyin is the current Young Master of your Xu Family. He’s certainly no fool. There shouldn’t be a problem with him choosing to run away when he saw trouble, right?”

“Hmph!”

Xu Fan looked at him with displeasure but couldn’t be bothered to argue. He extended a finger towards Oda Chihide and said sternly, “You there, it seems only you can tell me the truth. Tell me, where is Xu Qi?”

“I...”

Oda Chihide was somewhat taken aback, pointing to himself with his finger, rather uncertain whether Xu Fan was speaking to him.

Qin Haowu’s eyes widened in urgency. This was bad; he had not forewarned this fool to stay silent and gestured frantically at Oda Chihide, signaling him not to speak rashly.

A hint of mockery appeared on Xu Fan’s lips as he nodded towards Oda Chihide.

Suddenly, Oda Tenshu felt an invisible oppressiveness enveloping him, making it extremely difficult to breathe. He also had the illusion that Xu Fan could see through everything about him, even his innermost thoughts. So if he lied, Xu Fan would immediately realize he was being deceived... a consequence he certainly couldn’t bear.

Actually, Xu Fan’s Divine Sense had been spread out all along, easily sensing the location of Xu Qi.

The reason he asked Oda Chihide was merely to avoid revealing his ability. It would be better to get the same result through this Oda Chihide’s testimony.

In doing so, he also had another consideration—Oda Chihide, Xu Qi, and Qin Haowu were together for more than idle chatter; obviously, they were discussing cooperation.

These three individuals each represented prominent identities and could speak for their respective families.

Since Qin Haowu had chosen to cover for Xu Qi, Xu Fan might as well create a divide, sabotaging their cooperative relationship.

Making Oda Chihide reveal the true location of Xu Qi would effectively make him an enemy of Xu Qi, with no room left for sentiments between them.

Caught in the middle, Qin Haowu would have to make a choice and side with one over the other.

If he abandoned the Oda Family from Island Country for the sake of siding with Xu Qi, Xu Fan could then use Oda Chihide...

Oda Chihide, under the tremendous pressure of the aura, stammered, uncertain of what choice to make.

Xu Fan had no choice but to intensify his tone and demand, “Speak now, or take responsibility for the consequences.”
