Chapter 2217
Nelson glanced at Fane in confusion before he spoke," I wonder what business you have by visitingus here."
Theo sneered coldly, knowing he had said nothing offensive at all. Instead, he looked at Fane andsaid," Junior Brother Fane, do you know that our Junior Brother Frank has perished?"
Fane mentally smirked. He initially assumed that they were here for something else, but it seemedthat it was only regarding Frank's death. Fane thus nodded without hesitation. "I know, and I sawhim die with my own eyes, but what does this have to do with me? It wasn't me who killed him."
Edric looked like he wanted to say something but immediately stopped himself.
Theo scoffed at this. "You’re wrong. Nobody saw how Junior Brother Frank died, and you were theone nearest to him when it happened. On top of that, you two had bad blood with one another, andno one will believe you if you say that his death had nothing to do with you."
Fane’s expression turned cold when he heard what Theo said. What did he mean by that? Theywere trying to blame this on him! Fane knew how Frank died as Frank was the one who put himselfinto all that trouble. Why was Fane blamed when all he did was make sure Frank got what hewanted?
Fane sneered and slightly raised his voice in responding, "Senior Brother Theo, your remark is quiteabsurd. What are you trying to say? Are you trying to say that I was the one who killed Frank? Didn'tyour clan brothers tell you that I was also surrounded by enemies when Frank died? We werecaught in a battle, and you're saying that I turned around to kill Frank instead of fighting against theCorpse Pavilion's disciples?"
Theo narrowed his eyes. "My junior brother saw that you ran away and left Frank behind with hisown eyes! All the attacks landed on my junior brother, and you survived!"
Fane was speechless from anger. How could Theo say something like that? Should he have stayedbehind and died together with Frank? Everybody wanted to survive! On top of that, he did not knowFrank well, and they had grudges. Why should he die together with Frank?
Theo's words were downright absurd!novelbin
He could clearly feel that Theo was here to cause trouble.
Nelson frowned and glanced at Fane before lowering his voice as he asked, "What's going on? Areyou involved in Frank's death?"
Fane exhaled deeply and gave a brief explanation about what happened, and Nelson then turnedaround to look at Theo with a scowl. Everybody there could see that Theo was here to causetrouble. Based on what happened, Fane did not make any mistakes.
Frank died because he was too slow in his escape attempt, and this had nothing to do with Fane!
Although Nelson did not know Fane well, they were disciples from the same pavilion. Theo wascausing them problems on purpose, and it happened without any reason. "Senior Brother Theo,you're going too far," spoke Nelson, his voice audibly stern. "My Junior Brother Fane is unrelated toFrank; they just happened to be allies for a brief moment."
