Chapter 338: Chapter 222, Big Brother is Going to Stab Someone Again!

Bai Wuxin opened his eyes, and Tang Fei and Little Fatty were sitting beside him, watching intently.

He was initially nervous, but the moment he saw Tang Fei, his tense nerves relaxed.

"Awake?" Tang Fei asked with a smile.

Bai Wuxin did not speak.

"Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Bai Wuxin remained silent.

"I didn’t know your condition, and I dared not send you to the hospital..." Tang Fei began explaining, "I applied some ointment brought from the Old Land to your wounds, but I have no idea if it works. Anyway, this is what we always use in the Old Land when we get injured, and so far, we’re still jumping around alive..."

"Thank you," Bai Wuxin said in a hoarse voice.

"Thank me for what?" Tang Fei laughed and said, "You now owe me four hundred bucks and a life... Just pay me back double later."

"Okay." Bai Wuxin agreed without hesitation.

Now it was Tang Fei’s turn to feel uncertain. Based on his extensive experience, whenever he readily agreed to something, he often had no intention of fulfilling that promise...

Especially with matters as serious as life itself.

He had only one life, how could he repay two?

Liar!

He would rather believe in ghosts than trust a man’s broken promises.

"Are you hungry?" Tang Fei asked.

"Not hungry."

"Thirsty?"

"Not thirsty."

"Since you’re neither hungry nor thirsty, and you seem to be in good spirits, let’s have a proper talk..." Tang Fei looked at Bai Wuxin, who had a ghostly pale complexion yet exuded an inexplicable morbid beauty, and quickly shifted his gaze...

No wonder the chestnut seller was charmed by his beauty, willing to give him chestnuts for free; this guy was indeed good-looking...

He was one of the most handsome men Tang Fei had ever seen.

The other was himself when he looked in the mirror.

"What on earth did you do to get wounded like this?" Tang Fei asked, staring at the wounds on Bai Wuxin’s body.

He was badly injured, with cuts from knives and swords, tearing impacts from the Pulse Gun, and he was poisoned...

Luckily, they often got poisoned when they were in the Old Land, and the old man’s pills had helped extracted the poison from his system.

As for any remaining toxins, they would have to wait until he recovered to carry out further tests.

Bai Wuxin stayed silent, not answering Tang Fei’s question.

"You should know, by sheltering you, I’m risking a lot... If you won’t tell me the actual situation, I’ll have to turn you in."

Tang Fei’s expression turned serious, pushing him as he spoke, "I can’t take such a huge responsibility and risk just because we’ve met a couple of times... I need to think about myself and my family."

"Revenge." Bai Wuxin finally replied concisely.

"Revenge? Revenge for what? Who is your enemy?"

Bai Wuxin did not respond again.

Tang Fei got up abruptly and said, "Little Fatty, call the police."

"Right away." Little Fatty agreed, preparing to dial.

"Royal Family," Bai Wuxin suddenly spoke.

"..."

Tang Fei was taken aback.

How did this bastard know his deepest secret?

Wasn’t this what he had been wanting and doing all along?

He suspected Bai Wuxin might have been spying on him, knowing his hidden secrets, and even thought about killing him to keep it quiet while no one else knew...

Little Fatty saw Tang Fei’s solemn expression and wisely hung up the phone he was about to dial.

This answer was too shocking, obviously not something that a simple police call could resolve.

"Royal Family. Empire officials, nine major families... everyone."

Bai Wuxin’s gaze was calm, his voice too was calm, yet Tang Fei could feel the bone-chilling coldness in his words.

This feeling seemed familiar...

Yes, he had felt it before from the old man.

That kind of hatred that eroded the heart and gnawed at the bones, tormenting day and night until finally settling into calm.

But when someone ripped open old wounds, every word he spoke, every breath he took, was like a knife.

Ice-cold and bone-piercing, carrying a resentful aura.

"How dare you!" Tang Fei shouted angrily, "How dare you commit such a seditious act? The nation gave birth to you, raised you, provided you with food and shelter..."

"Weren’t you raised in an orphanage? Without the state’s help, you would have starved to death outside and been devoured by wild dogs... How can you harbor such hatred towards the Royal Family?"

Bai Wuxin stared indifferently at Tang Fei; his act was not very convincing.

This made Tang Fei feel even colder inside, feeling as if this guy could see right through him.

He felt he understood him, knew things he shouldn’t know.

He knew his identity? Did he know he was Tang Li’s son?

Did he know he was... seeking revenge?

Otherwise, why would he dare to speak of his goal of revenge in his presence?

Why dare to say his targets for revenge were the Royal Family, the Empire officials, the nine major families?

You should know, he himself was a staunch Royal Family underling, a lifesaver of the Princess, the Empire-awarded deputy captain of the Imperial Guard...

To anyone outside, he was absolutely loyal to the Royal Family.

Being disloyal to the Royal Family was unimaginable.

Why would he dare to say such seditious things in his presence?

What exactly did he want to do?

Was he willing to blow his cover to recruit accomplices, or was it a probe from some faction?

Tang Fei’s mind spun wildly, in complete disarray.

He was uncertain of the true identity of this youth who always appeared in white, and then asked him for money to buy sugar-roasted chestnuts...

"Do you know what you are saying?" Tang Fei asked.

"I do," Bai Wuxin looked at Tang Fei and said, "And so do you."

"The Royal Family has shown me immense kindness; without their grace, I would still be in Old Land fighting monsters... Meeting someone like you, I should be informing the Royal Family immediately."

"You won’t do that."

"Why not?"

"Because you and I are the same."

Tang Fei then squinted with a warm smile, his gaze pure, and said, "You should know your own physical condition, right? I am capable of taking your life within three moves..."

Little Fatty saw the look in Tang Fei’s eyes and knew trouble was brewing, Big Brother was about to attack someone again...

"Moreover, I don’t know your identity, and I worry about you harboring ill intentions towards us, so while treating you, I also administered some ’Carefree Powder’ to you..."

"Don’t look at me with that kind of eyes; I am a man with little sense of security. A man falling onto the rooftop in the middle of the night, who knows what he’s up to?"

"Your body is now as soft as cotton, and if you forcibly use Yin Yang Qi, not only will you be unable to activate it, but the toxicity of the Carefree Powder will also follow your breath into all the channels in your body..."

"So?"

"If you cannot give me an explanation..." Tang Fei’s smile remained as he spoke, "I will kill you."

"..." Bai Wuxin.

"Really, I’m not joking." Tang Fei pointed at Little Fatty and said, "My brother here, has a hammer, with one hammer blow... your face will be unrecognizable..."

"..." Little Fatty.
