Chapter 242 Whoever hits me, I will hit Lan Shiwen

Oops.

The moment he heard this voice, Lan Shiwen's nerves suddenly tensed up.

Everyone in the circle of ascenders knows that Lan Shiwen from Yundu has the ability to predict the future. He stayed in the parking lot for too long, and the killer hiding in the dark had obviously realized that something was wrong.

"Xiaolan?"

His girlfriend's voice rang again. Lan Shiwen leaned back in his seat, not daring to look back.

"You are hiding, are you afraid to show up?" Lan Shiwen asked casually. He had made a mistake in the operation, and he was ready to die here. Any more information he could get before he died would be good.

The voice behind him was silent for a while, and then sounded again:
"Xiao Lan, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

A familiar voice, soft tone, and gentle pronunciation as if she was acting coquettishly to her boyfriend. Even the subconscious tongue-thrust sound at the end of a sentence was imitated exactly, and there was no difference from the owner of the voice. If Lan Shiwen had not been mentally prepared in advance after his experience of returning from death, he would never have had the slightest doubt about this voice.

"When you turned into Van Dyke before, I didn't think anything of it. It wasn't until today when I witnessed with my own eyes that the people around me were replaced by a ghost who was good at imitating. Then I realized your ability. It's really terrifying..."

Lan Shiwen waved his hands and sighed, "Stop playing tricks, Yeyao. I know it's you. Don't be impulsive, okay? If there is anything, we can sit down and talk. Only a calm negotiation can get a result that satisfies both parties, right?"

"Of course I don't want to be so unpleasant with you." The soft voice sounded again, but this time there was no emotion at all: "But I don't have any other choice, right?"

"What do you mean?" Lan Shiwen asked.

"Can't you predict the future?" Ning Zhe asked back, "Do you want to predict what I will say next?"

"Ah this..." Lan Shiwen smiled bitterly. He wished he could really predict the future.

After a moment of silence, Lan Shiwen spoke again: "Because of Fen Wu?"

"You already know that." Ning Zhe smiled and said softly, "Fen Wu is a mysterious person who is hard to find. You told me that. You also know that I have a grudge against Fen Wu. So, do you know that I seem to have found out Fen Wu's identity recently?"

"You found out Fen Wu's identity?!" Lan Shiwen was shocked when he heard this: "How is this possible!"

Seeing his reaction, Ning Zhe became more certain of his thoughts: "I'm not sure, I just suspected it, but not long after I began to believe it, this 'identity' died."

Having said that, there is no need for further explanation.

Lan Shiwen thought for a moment and understood why Ning Zhe came to kill him: "Ye Yao and Fen Wu have a grudge. He went to Qinzhou some time ago to try to control a ghost that could make up for his own shortcomings..."

The old defects are about to endanger his life, and the new rules have not yet been mastered. This is the most vulnerable and most dangerous time for an ascender. Fen Wu took advantage of this opportunity to attack Ning Zhe.

As for the consequences of this fight, he sat in the back seat alive.

"He actually survived Fenwu's pursuit... This means that Ye Yao has made up for the shortcomings of the core rules." After figuring out the key points, Lan Shiwen's attitude became more serious.

This is not simply a matter of having one more ghost or one less ghost, but the connection of rules and the completion of defects. The upgraders have mastered new ghosts that meet their own needs. What does this mean?
This means that the upgraded person can use the abilities of his original ghost almost without restriction until the new ghost begins to show defects.

A supernatural power that has no flaws, no side effects, and can be used infinitely. This is a transformation of essence, an elevation of life level, and the starting point for becoming a 'God'.

"You finally took that step." Lan Shiwen let go of the steering wheel, leaving two wet handprints on the steering wheel handle.

"Yes, so I came to find you." Ning Zhe said calmly: "I have a grudge against Fen Wu, and the two of us can only have a life-and-death feud, but when I was about to lock down his identity... this identity had a car accident and he died."

And the place where the car accident happened happened to be Yundu.

What a coincidence.

Lan Shiwen nodded, it was indeed a coincidence.

"Bai Fugui... So he is Fen Wu's real identity? He is hiding it very well." Lan Shiwen turned off the screen of his phone and continued, "As soon as his identity was locked, he chose to commit suicide to escape... So you think I used my ability to predict the future to tip off Fen Wu?"

"No, I don't think so." Ning Zhe denied this statement: "I just came to kill you."

"Ah?" Lan Shiwen was confused: "If you don't suspect me, why?"

"Because you, Lan Shiwen, are Tu Yu's adopted son." Ning Zhe said with a smile:

"Lan Shiwen, a natural ascender. In 1996, Tu Yu picked up your newborn from a hospital shrouded in strange events and raised you. Four years later, in 4, Tu Yu held the four-year-old you in his arms, entered Juxian Garden with Fen Wu and Ji Bochang, and killed everyone in the Yin family."

"Your ability is too dangerous, Lan Shiwen. You are also too close to Tu Yu and Fen Wu. Did you know that? In fact, there was more than one Ascendant who set up a trap to kill me in Qinzhou, there was also Tu Yu. If I had worse luck or a weaker mind, I would have been trapped to death by Tu Yu."

Hearing this, Lan Shiwen couldn't help but say, "Tu Yu is just a paid man. He will help anyone as long as they are paid. You know this, don't you?"

"Yes, I know." Ning Zhe's smile became more wonderful: "So if Fen Wu finds you and asks you to help him, will you help him?"

Lan Shiwen was silent.

Because his answer is: Yes.

"Then you might as well think about it again. Maybe I am in good condition now, but what about the future? The defects of the new ghosts I control are beginning to appear, urging me to find new rules to prolong my life. That is the second weak period of the ascenders. At that time..."

"Think about it, Lan Shiwen. Just Fenwu has made me so exhausted. If I add your and Tu Yu's help, do you think I can live to control the next ghost?"

Lan Shiwen remained silent.

Because he knew the answer was: No.

"You are too dangerous, Lan Shiwen, that's why I want to kill you." Ning Zhe said, and the smile on his face quietly disappeared:

"Predict the future, Lan Shiwen. Predict how I will kill you next?"

Lan Shiwen remained silent because he had no way of predicting the future.
