631: Chapter 620: It’s Actually Zhu Xuetao!
“Senior, I am extremely grateful for your help today; I will surely repay you generously in the future!”
After leaving the Shangguan Family, Ning Fan clasped his fist in thanks to the figure in black.
Without the senior’s support today, it would not have been easy for them to leave the Shangguan Family.
The person in black waved his hand and shook his head, saying, “Our fate is not yet at an end; there will come a day for you to return the favor!”
With these words, the strong figure in black prepared to turn and leave with an air of nonchalance.
Ning Fan hurriedly approached and asked, “Senior, may I know your identity?”
He was very curious about who this person was; with the strength of True Origin Realm at its peak and Half-step Aerial Mastery, he was far stronger than Shangguan Tanglong’s Object-Manipulating Realm at its peak!
The figure in black halted his steps, turned back, and looked deeply at Ning Fan for a few seconds before finally replying, “Fallen Angel!”
No sooner had the voice faded than the figure’s toes touched the ground, and he soared into the sky, rapidly vanishing from the sight of the crowd.
Fallen Angel, Ning Fan wore a look of confusion; he had never heard of this title.
However, upon hearing it, the four people of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning all opened their mouths in disbelief, incredulously watching as the figure disappeared.
“Fallen Angel, do you know of them?”
Ning Fan asked out of curiosity, growing more interested in this Fallen Angel.
Ah Feng swallowed hard, his eyes somewhat unfocused as he looked at Ning Fan and said with a wry smile, “You can’t possibly have not heard of them, can you?
You are Asura, after all!”
“I…” Ning Fan rolled his eyes.
He had no knowledge of any Fallen Angel; was that so abnormal?
If he did know who the Fallen Angel was, he wouldn’t be so utterly confused, nor would he be asking them about it.
Seeing Ning Fan’s expression and believing it genuine, Ah Feng turned serious and solemnly said, “In Huaxia, there is a super mysterious and incredibly powerful organization called the Blazing Angels!”
Blazing Angels?
Surprise crossed Ning Fan’s face.
“And this Fallen Angel is a member of the Blazing Angels organization.
I never expected that in my lifetime, I would actually have the chance to meet such a powerful being!”
After finishing, Ah Feng’s eyes held a hint of admiration.
The Blazing Angels were, after all, the strongest mysterious organization in Huaxia.
Even Ning Fan’s Phantom Guild could not compare; there was still a considerable gap.
Ning Fan himself was astounded; he never expected to encounter a member of Huaxia’s super mysterious organization, the Blazing Angels, and indeed the power of this Fallen Angel was impressive, worthy of being part of the strongest Blazing Angels in Huaxia.
As for these Blazing Angels, Ning Fan’s curiosity only deepened, feeling that on his return journey, he needed to learn more about this Blazing Angels organization.
However, before that, they had to return to Zhonghai first.
Far away in Zhonghai, Chen Fengnan, upon receiving the good news, had immediately arranged for Ning Fan and his group’s return trip.
Sitting in the car back to Zhonghai, Ning Fan and Huo Qiuran sat together, clinging closely to one another.
Having reconciled, they were inseparable even for a moment.
“Ning Fan, I’m so glad you could come today!”
As Huo Qiuran spoke, she seemed on the verge of tears once again.
She was still dressed in her wedding gown, looking stunningly beautiful, while Ning Fan beside her had his suit ruined.
But Huo Qiuran didn’t mind; she continued to lean tightly against Ning Fan, wishing she could melt into his body.
“Fool, why are you crying?
It’s my fault, I can’t believe I misunderstood you for so long…”
Ning Fan looked at Huo Qiuran with guilt.
Now he completely understood the reason she had proposed breaking up and said those hurtful words in the past; it was all because of today’s events.
At that time, Huo Qiuran had no choice but to protect him, which filled Ning Fan with guilt as well as immense gratitude towards Huo Qiuran.
Remembering their encounter after his return and how he had deliberately ignored Huo Qiuran and pretended not to know her, he realized he had deeply hurt her too.
All Ning Fan could think of now was how to make it up to Huo Qiuran.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, I’m crying because I’m happy!”
Huo Qiuran leaned into Ning Fan’s embrace, gazing affectionately at him.
After a long lock of eyes, the next moment their lips met.
…
While Ning Fan and the others were on their way back to Zhonghai, the mysterious black-clad powerhouse who had assisted them en route reached Zhonghai ahead of them.
Hurrying to his destination, he surprisingly ended up at Xu Corporation, something nobody would have anticipated.
The black-clad powerhouse entered Xu Corporation undetected and made his way straight to the security department.
Finding it empty, he quietly entered Zhu Xuetao’s office.
After locking the office door, he finally removed the mask from his face.
Zhu Xuetao!!!
To everyone’s astonishment, the black-clad powerhouse turned out to be Zhu Xuetao, the head of security at Xu Corporation and Ning Fan’s sworn brother.
If Ning Fan were here, he would surely think he was dreaming—Zhu Xuetao was the black-clad powerhouse who had helped them!
Zhu Xuetao took off his disguise and changed back into his usual security guard uniform.
Looking at his reflection in the mirror, he sneered, “Kid, Archangel, your disciple has finally made you proud…”
He looked at himself in the mirror with complex emotions, impossible for anyone to guess that this man was the Fallen Angel, a member of the Blazing Angels organization and a powerful Peak True Origin Realm practitioner with Half-step Aerial Mastery.
The words he muttered to himself indicated that he knew Ning Fan’s mentor, and one could only imagine what Ning Fan’s reaction would be upon learning all this.
After locking up the black clothes in the cabinet, Zhu Xuetao exited his office.
With an expressionless face, he walked around the security department.
Soon some security guards came back to rest and saw him wandering aimlessly, wondering what he was up to.
“Chief, are you still worried about Queen Huo getting married?”
A security guard joked, prompting laughter from those around him.
“What are you talking about?
I’m thinking about work.
What are you lot playing at, and who told you that I’m interested in that so-called Queen Huo?
I’ll loosen their bones for them!”
Zhu Xuetao glared at the guards fiercely, clueless about who started the ridiculous rumor that Huo Qiuran was his idol.
His initial response upon hearing it was to scowl.
It’s true that rumors need only a mouth to spread, but refuting them is a much harder task.
Now everyone in the security department thinks his idol is Huo Qiuran—what nonsense!
“Yes, yes, you’ve been tirelessly working for the company’s development, we all understand!”
“Damn it, you little brats looking for a beating, huh?
Stand still, don’t run!”
