Chapter 1411: Chapter 1411: The Relationship Between Men and Women Is Not Simple

Xue Xue did not respond, a sharp glint flitting across her eyes, as an invisible oppressive aura filled the surroundings. Gu Fan, a veteran in countless battles, quickly understood the meaning behind her gaze and immediately tensed his body, readying for combat. "Wait a moment..." Li realized that the situation was dire and tried to intervene, but it was too late. Xue Xue stomped her foot and charged directly at Gu Fan, unaware that the man before her was not simple, with only the thought of killing to silence him crossing her mind. Gu Fan was attacked, his eyes widening as he felt his neck being grabbed, a formidable force pushing him backward. Xue Xue immediately suppressed Gu Fan, pushing him against the wall and lifting him off the ground. "Let’s talk this through!" Gu Fan grasped Xue Xue’s arm, feigning a bit of difficulty in breathing, hoping to negotiate. However, Xue Xue had no intention of listening, her murderous intent in her eyes grew stronger, and her grip on Gu Fan’s neck tightened. Li, standing by, became anxious, "Xue, stop it, he’s my friend, he won’t betray me." "That’s right, I’m Li’s friend, I just helped you," Gu Fan had just finished speaking when he heard Xue Xue coldly say, "Sorry, but for me and Li, anyone who knows my whereabouts mustn’t be spared, so I’m sorry." "It doesn’t matter, you can’t kill me anyway." Gu Fan deployed the Vajra Body Protection, a strong defensive force emanated from his neck, making him feel much more relaxed. Xue Xue was taken aback, her hands, no matter how hard she tried, could not break Gu Fan’s neck, even using both hands together was futile, suddenly feeling that things weren’t looking good. Gu Fan appeared quite composed, grabbing Xue Xue’s arms and then yanking with nearly the same strength as her, alleviating the threat to his neck. "What, this guy is so strong, is he an ordinary person?" Xue Xue could hardly believe it but did not give up, and tried to reach for Gu Fan’s neck again. "Hey! Don’t you get it? You can’t kill me." Gu Fan firmly held Xue Xue’s clawing arms, preventing her hands from even touching his neck. Finally, both engaged in a struggle, their four palms meeting, Xue Xue not gaining the slightest advantage. Li watched, dumbfounded. Being a vampire, Xue Xue’s strength should at least be twice that of an ordinary person, yet Gu Fan could match her in strength. Gu Fan, seeing that Xue Xue still hesitated to let go, could only sigh helplessly and spun his body like flipping over. Since their four palms were connected, this move forced Xue Xue to rotate along with him, the two who had been face-to-face now turned back-to-back. Gu Fan seized the initiative. He bent backward, catching the unprepared Xue Xue off balance with a push from his back. Following that, Gu Fan performed a shoulder throw, flipping Xue Xue from behind him to the front. As Xue Xue tried to rise, Gu Fan twisted her arm back and pinned her down with his knee. "Don’t move, beautiful, or this wooden stake will not be so kind." Gu Fan pressed a wooden stake against Xue Xue’s heart, instantly making her expression change dramatically, no longer daring to struggle. Li immediately pleaded, "Brother, please show mercy." Gu Fan said, "Beautiful, you should thank Li." After finishing, Gu Fan stood up and released Xue Xue. Li immediately helped Xue Xue to her feet like a knight protecting a flower, while Xue Xue still appeared unwilling, glaring fiercely at Gu Fan as if she still wanted a rematch to regain her dignity. Gu Fan spoke again, "Alright, now do you believe that I’m on your side?" "Li, you—" Li was at a loss for words, only able to chuckle dryly, "Thank you." "It’s nothing, when that beauty wanted to kill me earlier, you also pleaded for me; I’m only overlooking this because of you," Gu Fan looked at Xue Xue, his interest piqued further. Xue Xue, with an expression of indifference, ignored Gu Fan completely. "Let me guess, back then, Xue Xue to protect herself, killed a member of the Xue Clan, and hence was pursued by Organization X. And Li, you kindly took Xue Xue in. Organization X has never known that Xue Xue was still in Dark City, thinking she had already fled outside," Gu Fan looked at Xue Xue and then at Li, pondering the special nature of their relationship. Li replied with a bitter smile, "Actually, it wasn’t Xue Xue who killed that member of the Xue Clan; it was me. I did it to protect Xue Xue, using a wooden stake." Hearing this, Xue Xue’s expression showed intense fear, touching Li with her arm. Li shook his head, "It’s okay, I trust Tai, and I believe he will keep this a secret for me." "Thank you for trusting me so much." Gu Fan suddenly felt comforted to find someone he could trust in enemy territory, a rare occurrence. Gu Fan added, "No wonder, after the incident, you were the only one alive when the first rescue team arrived; it turns out you and Xue Xue were together." Li explained, "To be precise, I was the first to get there. Originally, Xue Xue was no match for that Xue Clan member, but because I burst in, I distracted that Xue Clan member, giving Xue Xue a chance to counterattack." "I see, your appearance made that Xue Clan member feel threatened, causing him to howl for help. When the first rescue team arrived, that Xue Clan member had already been killed by you." Gu Fan was surprised, looking at Li appreciatively before saying, "You’re amazing, you actually took down a Xue Clan member." To that, Li shook his head, "I was lying on the ground, pretending to be dead, then took advantage of the brawl between Xue Xue and that Xue Clan member to launch a surprise attack from behind." "No wonder, that Xue Clan member was stabbed in the back. If only Xue Xue and that Xue Clan member were in the room at the time of the incident, the Xue Clan member shouldn’t have exposed his back to Xue Xue," Gu Fan pondered seriously. Xue Xue scoffed, "Alright, now you know everything, what do you want to do?" "What do I want?" Gu Fan appeared troubled, "I don’t want to do much, I just want to help a friend." Xue Xue squinted, clearly skeptical, "You’re that kind-hearted?" Li quickly interceded, "Xue Xue, you don’t know Tai, you don’t know what kind of person he is, but you trust me, and I trust Tai." "It’s not that I don’t trust you, but we’ve killed a member of the Xue Clan, and Organization X won’t let us go. Whoever helps us will face the pursuit of Organization X; it’s a huge risk, who would dare to take it on." Xue Xue’s disbelief was evident as she firmly stated, "I don’t believe you would offend Organization X for us."
