Jiang Fan hesitated.
If he handed him over, there would be no hope of rescuing Xingyuan Venerable again.
But if he didn’t, he would have to fall out with the Five-star Giant King right now.
Swish!
A shadow converged beside the Five-star Giant King.
It was Wu Gou Venerable!
In his hand, he held Xingyuan Venerable, who had been resealed with the five senses.
Seeing him, Jiang Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
Xingyuan Venerable was still alive.
What he feared most was that all his efforts would result in news of Xingyuan Venerable’s death.
Fortunately, they hadn’t killed Xingyuan Venerable but spared his life.
Jiang Fan guessed their intention.
To convert Xingyuan Venerable!
"Devour Blood, what’s the situation now?"
Wu Gou Venerable scrutinized Jiang Fan and the Five-star Giant King, eyes full of doubt.
Shouldn’t the atmosphere between the two be tense and confrontational?
How come the Five-star Giant King didn’t have any killing intent?
The Five-star Giant King snorted, "This fool caused a big misunderstanding!"
Wu Gou Venerable looked at Jiang Fan suspiciously, "You wouldn’t say this guy is that person, would you?"
Jiang Fan was frustrated.
Why don’t you just say the name of that damned traitor in front of all the martial artists of Hunyuan State!
The Five-star Giant King nodded, "It’s him."
"Not long ago, a deal was made."
"Now there’s trouble, hoping to sell Xingyuan Venerable a big favor in exchange for protection."
"Xingyuan Venerable cannot be taken back by him, I’ve given him some Magical Treasures."
Wu Gou Venerable stared at Jiang Fan, eyes narrowing gradually.
He had never seen that traitor before.
He’d only heard that there was such a person in Central Earth with extraordinary connections, though his strength wasn’t very high.
But his abilities were extremely strong.
Whatever resources the Heavenly Realm wanted, whatever intelligence was needed, he could find it.
Since the Connecting Sky Black Pillar linked the two realms, he’d provided the Heavenly Realm with much valuable intelligence.
The Giant Emperor was very fond of him.
He was second only to him in favor from the Giant Emperor.
However, something seemed amiss.
This person wanting to exchange Xingyuan Venerable was enough with the information of the Nine Phoenix Chao Dao hairpin.
Why go to the trouble of breaking into the military camp, slaughtering, and capturing Princess Zi Jiang?
It all seemed like revenge against the Ancient Giants.
"Devour Blood, have you seen that person’s true face?"
Wu Gou Venerable asked.
The Five-star Giant King slightly shook his head, "No, but I heard from the Giant Emperor that his true face and the mask are similar in age."
Wu Gou Venerable’s face changed, his eyes suddenly sharp, speaking in a cold voice:
"You’ve been tricked!"
"The person before you, beneath the mask, is a young man!!"
The Five-star Giant King might not see it, but as one of the Heavenly Human Five Declines from Central Earth, he had long seen through the mask with the spell.
Beneath that mask, it wasn’t any middle-aged man.
But a young man!
"What?" the Five-star Giant King exclaimed, the five stars on his forehead spinning rapidly, carefully sensing Jiang Fan’s blood energy.
Moments later, the giant vertical eye was filled with angry killing intent.
"His blood, indeed, doesn’t have the taste of a middle-aged man!"
"You little brat! How dare you deceive this king!"
