The Man In Rage novel Chapter 866

"All I can say is that you have terrible acting. From the moment you promised to be my slave and help me to hunt down Mochizuki Kawa, I could tell that you didn't do it wholeheartedly. It was all just acting. You want to take me to Tokyo and lead me into a trap at Sword Shrine, right?" said Ye Fan calmly as he smiled with his hands behind him.

He glanced teasingly at the young woman before him.

At the get-go, Ye Fan already knew that she was just pretending to submit to him, and it was all a part of a trap that Mochizuki Kawa had set.

However, Ye Fan didn't blow her cover.

He didn't care.

In his eyes, schemes like these were just child's play.

It was particularly ineffective in the face of true power.

Nothing could be trusted throughout time and space except himself.

Only power mattered!

And power was Ye Fan's greatest pride.

Suzumiya Eigetsu hung her head while Ye Fan's calm words echoed through the air.

She lowered her eyes without saying a word.

Sunlight shone in from outside the window and fell on her, casting a shadow on the floor.

In an instant, the young woman began tremble.

Before she knew it, tears had already trickled down from her face.

She hung her head and wept as she said, "Master, I'm sorry I lied. I'm sorry."

Tears cascaded down Suzumiya Eigetsu's face as she kept apologizing.

Ye Fan shook his head and said calmly, "Don't apologize. There is no right or wrong. We are just standing on the opposite sides. Mochizuki Kawa is your master, so that makes me your enemy. You are not to blame for lying to me or even killing me. But I don't understand. You should have been more than happy to lead me to Sword Shrine from the minute we reached Tokyo, so why are you stalling for time here?"

Ye Fan was quite curious.

In reality, Ye Fan didn't hate Suzumiya Eigetsu.

On the contrary, Ye Fan liked her a little.

During this short span of time, Ye Fan could tell that Suzumiya Eigetsu was a rather innocent young woman.

She was a bad actress and liar since everything was written on her face.

She was innocent and candid, just like a piece of untarnished white paper.

She only lied to Ye Fan on Mochizuki

Kawa's orders, so Ye Fan didn't blame her.

However, Suzumiya Eigetsu continued to hang her head despite Ye Fan's questions.

"I...I..." stammered Suzumiya Eigetsu hesitantly as she gritted her teeth.

Then she finally said, "I...I don't want you to die. Master, can you not go? All three Sword Shrine Head Priests have gathered, and they are waiting for you to walk into their trap. It's impossible for you to kill my teacher, and you will even end up getting killed." Suzumiya Eigetsu choked as she persuaded him.

Ye Fan killed both her senpais and hurt her master, Mochizuki Kawa, so she ought to hate him.

However, Suzumiya Eigetsu didn't know why she couldn't bear to hate Ye Fan at all.
