Beneath the Upper City

No one knows when it began—

But the world was split in two.

Those in the Upper City live in the sunlight, on vast lands, warm and free.

Those in the Lower City survive in a cram...

Chapter 1247 Awakening

Bai Qiming just said that Miesheng has disappeared.

That means Li Tiandao might still be alive.

At this moment, Ning Fan suddenly woke up, and it was hard not to doubt who he was.

No one spoke, but all the combatants had already stepped forward, and Wen Xiuyuan and other scientific researchers were also protected behind them.

Even Xu Jiang had stood up and came to Ning Fan's side.

Looking at the tense atmosphere around him, Ning Fan could naturally guess what was happening.

"Don't be nervous, it's me."

Ning Fan struggled to stand up and shook his dizzy head.

Although he had remained awake in the sword world during this period, his body had been in a coma for a long time after all.

However, his words did not make the people around him relax.

Ning Fan's eyes swept across everyone and finally stopped on Lu Yuan.

"Lu Lao Er, now you want to swing at me too?"

Lu Yuan was stunned, and a hint of hesitation immediately appeared in his eyes.

The tone of voice is so similar to Ning Fan's.

"Ning Fan."

Wen Xiuyuan squeezed in from the crowd and asked, "Tell me, what's going on now?"

His words did not reveal any information about his side, and they could also analyze what they wanted from Ning Fan's next words.

"Dad, I know what you're worried about."

Ning Fan raised his hand: "Can you give me some water first?"

Wen Xiuyuan nodded, then went to get Ning Fan a glass of water himself.

Ning Fan gulped it all down before letting out a long sigh.

"Li Tiandao is not dead."

Ning Fan said something that shocked everyone, but upon closer thought, it was extremely reasonable.

Likewise, there was no response from the crowd.

What Wen Xiuyuan just said was actually a reminder to the people around him that people on our side should not take the initiative to disclose information.

"Miesheng didn't kill him."

Ning Fan continued, "But it allowed him to release all his energy."

Luo Lin frowned and couldn't help asking, "Director, could you be more specific?"

Ning Fan looked at Luo Lin.

"To put it bluntly, Li Tiandao is now like those remaining souls of the past, and may disappear at any time."

"He lost the ability to directly replace me, but at the same time, I can no longer use his abilities."

"The most direct problem is that Wuxiang will not be of any use to me."

To be honest, if this person is really Ning Fan, then what he said now is a relief.

This is definitely good news.

Even if Ning Fan lost all his abilities, they could accept it.

After all, it is now known that Ling Mo cannot leave Diancheng, and the only Bahuang in Shangcheng is the old Sword God.

Judging from Xiang Shan’s attitude, the old Sword God will at least not be an enemy of the forces in Xiacheng.

This means that there is enough time in the lower city to figure out a way to get Guan Shanyue and others to the upper city.

At present, the biggest problem for them is still Li Tiandao.

Since Ning Fan said that Li Tiandao could not disrupt the situation, everything could proceed in an orderly manner according to the previously planned plan.

"What if you fall into a coma again?"

Wen Xiuyuan raised a question: "Or maybe he just fell asleep."

He knew that Ning Fan would enter the world of swords every time he fell asleep.

So if Li Tiandao still exists now, will Ning Fan be in danger if he goes in?

"Just like before, I died in the sword world and will only wake up again, so he can't pose a threat to me there."

Ning Fan stood up.

The people around were still on guard, but the atmosphere was not as solemn as before.

"You won't always treat me like this, right?"

Ning Fan gave a bitter smile: "I am really me."

"Captain General, where are you going?"

Seeing Ning Fan walking towards the door, Guan Shanyue came up to him sideways and asked in a low voice.

"Uncle Guan, you're not going to restrict my freedom, are you?"

"Captain General, I hope you can stay in the lower city for a while longer."

Guan Shanyue's expression was stern: "I believe you will understand my intention."

Ning Fan stared at Guan Shanyue for a while, then smiled.

"OK."

Guan Shanyue was indeed cautious in keeping Ning Fanqiang in the lower city.

After all, in the lower city, there are these high-level [Thousand Souls Level] people like them. Even if something goes wrong on Ning Fan's side, they always have some means of checks and balances.

If they are really no match for their opponent at that time, they will have tried their best.

Because up to now, no one dares to confirm 100% that the person who is now controlling Ning Fan's body is Ning Fan.

Similarly, Guan Shanyue said that Ning Fan would understand his intentions.

As long as this Ning Fan is real, he will definitely think that Guan Shanyue does this for the good of everyone.

Therefore, it was impossible for Ning Fan to turn against Guan Shanyue directly or even fight with her.

If Ning Fan really took action because of Guan Shanyue's obstruction...

Then, the person controlling Ning Fan's body at this time must be Li Tiandao!

Ning Fan's decisive agreement finally made people feel relieved.

Both Wen Xiuyuan and Luo Lin believed that Li Tiandao definitely did not have the ability to control Ning Fan for a long time.

If Ning Fan stays in the lower city for a week, there will most likely be a result.

Of course, all of this is based on their belief that Ning Fan's consciousness has not disappeared.

If Ning Fan had already perished along with Miesheng...

Then all their little tricks will be of no use at all.

Or it could be said that if Ning Fan was really Li Tiandao, there seemed to be no reason for him to act in front of them.

Another reason for letting Ning Fan stay was the phone call Gerlan just received.

Once Xu Jian arrives, they will be able to obtain a lot of information about Diancheng.

Most importantly, this will also allow them to have a more comprehensive understanding of Ning Fan.

By then, they will be able to understand more clearly that Ning Fan is now...

Is it really him?

In this way, Ning Fan stayed in the lower city peacefully for a day.

After waking up, he did feel a little weak. Every day, even if he did nothing, he would feel deeply tired.

He did not feel dissatisfied with the vigilance and precautions shown by the people around him.

And on the second day after waking up, Ning Fan took the initiative to find Wen Xiuyuan and Guan Shanyue.

That’s right, Ning Fan only looked for the two of them.

"Dad, based on the progress of your and Luo Lin's research, how long will it take for Uncle Guan and the others to actually head to Upper City?"

This state made Wen Xiuyuan even want to confirm directly that this was Ning Fan himself.

Whether it is the attitude of speaking or the direction of concern.

However, before Wen Xiuyuan could answer, Guan Shanyue asked back.

"The Grand Commander is in a hurry to get us up. Does he have any new plans?"
