nThe cloaked figures that didn’t turn traitor moved in front of the old master and the three masters, as if they wanted to protect them.

nOne of them turned to the old master to say, “Master, you should take the young masters and leave this place. We’ll hold them back.”

nBut the old master just gave a snort and said, “Leave this place? Do you think that he would let us do that? He came here with a plan and this is clearly not all that he can do.”

nThe cloaked figure didn’t say anything, but it was clear by his body language that he was tense.

nThe old master ignored this and turned back to look at Lin Fan.

nAfter a long period of hesitation, he asked, “What did you do?”

nLin Fan gave a shrug as he said, “What do you think I did?”

nThe old master didn’t say anything in response, but it was clear by the look in his eyes that he was filled with anger and confusion.

nAfter another long moment of silence, the old master finally asked, “Just who are you? I’m sure that my Lin Family has never had any form of conflict with you before, so why are you doing all of this?”

nThe old master had no choice but to accept that Lin Fan was a threat to his Lin Family now.

nAfter the demonstration that he had shown with the guards outside and now even the hidden guards that protected them, it didn’t seem like there was anything that they could do.

nThis was a monster that could control people!

nHow was he supposed to deal with that?!

nTo the old master’s surprise, Lin Fan just said with a calm smile, “Actually, that’s something very interesting that I wanted to talk about. Who do you think I am?” Tʜe source of this ᴄontent s Novlꜰre.et

nThe old master and the three masters revealed confused looks when they heard this.

nThe old master looked at the first master.

nThe first master was the one that was in charge of collecting information, so he would be the one that knew who this mysterious invader was.

nThe first master gave a nod to the old master before turning to Lin Fan to say, “Your name is Wu Qing, you’re a B Ranker who is registered with the Mercenary Guild. But your real identity is an orphan who came from Silver Vein City in the eastern province who registered as a mercenary four years ago.”

nLin Fan shook his head with a faint smile as he said, “Do you really think that’s who I am?”

nThe first master knitted his brows when he heard this, but he slowly shook his head as he said, “While I don’t know exactly who you are, the fact that you have said this means that you are someone who has faked his identity to the Mercenary Guild. Do you know the consequences of doing something like this?”

nHe wanted to use the Mercenary Guild to threaten Lin Fan, but Lin Fan just revealed a look like he was looking at a clown.

nSince Mu Bao Bao took over the Mu Empire, it was the Mercenary Guild who had been trying to get closer to him through Tian Tian. If it was really found out that he was using a fake identity, it wouldn’t matter since they would just accept it.

nSo the threats of the first master had no effect on him at all.

nLin Fan just gave a shrug as he said, “Go and report me then.”

nThe first master was shocked when he heard this, but that wasn’t all that shocked him.

nLin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at the first master as he said, “That is if you even have the life left to do so.”

nThe first master couldn’t help stumbling in the chair that he had been sitting in when he heard this as a chill ran down his spine. If he hadn’t been sitting down, it would have been very likely that he fell to the ground.

nBut since he was sitting in the chair, he was able to remain seated even if he looked a bit strange.

nThe old master cut in by saying, “Alright, stop playing around and just tell us what you want.”

nLin Fan looked at the old master with another smile and said, “I think that I’ve already made it very clear what I want. Now the ball is in your court.”

nThe old master narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan for a while before saying in a low voice, “Why?”

nHe was no longer beating around the bush and just simply asking Lin Fan why he was doing all of this. After all, no matter how the old master thought about this, it didn’t seem like there was a reason for any of this.

nLin Fan no longer had a teasing smile and just calmly said, “Let me tell you a story, I think it’ll make sense then.”

nThe old master and the three masters all revealed confused looks, but they didn’t say anything as they waited for Lin Fan to tell this story that he wanted to tell.

nLin Fan just calmly started that story.

nIt was about a boy who was born as an illegitimate member of his family and was discriminated against, but was eventually accepted by said family because of the talent that he demonstrated.

nHowever, because of that talent, he attracted the hatred of the other members of said family.

nAs he told this story, the expression of the third master suddenly changed.

nThe other two masters and the old master didn’t seem to react as much to this story, but the third master was clearly reacting. It was as if he recognized this story and in turn was slowly forming an idea of who this mysterious invader was.

nThe end of the story was that the boy was poisoned by the members of his family and left out in the wilderness to die.

nAt this, the third master clenched his fists and looked carefully at Lin Fan, as if he was trying to see through him.

nSeeing this, Lin Fan looked at the third master with a smile and said, “Do you recognize this story?”

nThe third master’s expression changed several times when he heard this before he said, “You can’t be…”

nLin Fan gave a shrug before saying, “Sometimes, what seems impossible is what is the truth, don’t you know?”

n“How are you still alive?” The third master said in a shocked voice.

nLin Fan couldn’t help slightly knitting his brows when he heard this.

nIt was almost as if the third master had been aware of everything that happened and had even been a part of the death of the original owner of this body. He had only thought that it was the other wives who had been a part of the murder, but it seemed that even the father was connected.

nThat was right, the father of the original owner of this body was the third master.

nThe third master had been the most talented member of the Lin Family, which resulted in the talent of the original owner of this body.

nBut now it seemed that the third master had even been jealous of his son’s talent and had participated in his death.

nStill, Lin Fan didn’t break character as he looked at the third master to say, “Well, what do you think my name is?”

nThe third master trembled when he heard this, but he didn’t say a thing as he kept looking at Lin Fan with a strange look.

nIt was only after a long silence that he said, “Lin Fan? Is that really you?”

nWhen the old master and the other two masters heard this, they deeply knitted their brows.

nThey never thought that this person would actually be connected to their Lin Family…

nLin Fan just gave a simple nod before removing the disguise that he had on.

nThe moment that his face returned to normal, the old master and all three of the masters revealed ugly looks. That was because they all recognized him as the former most talented member of the Lin Family’s younger generation.

nThe handsome face of his was really something that was hard to forget.

nWhen the old master reacted, he immediately slammed his hand down on the armrest of his chair before glaring at the third master.

nWhen Lin Fan saw this, he couldn’t help being surprised.

nlightsnοvεl It seemed that even the old master didn’t know the truth of his death.

nIt seemed that everything had been a plot of his father to kill him.

nThis third master of the Lin Family, he really was a cruel man. Because of his jealousy, it seemed that he didn’t even hesitate to kill his own son.

nIt seemed that both the first master and second master also didn’t know anything about this.

nIt seemed that everything had been done by his father, the third master.

nBut of course, Lin Fan had no intention of letting any of them go.

nThe old master glared at the third master for a bit who was just too stunned to react, but then the old master turned to look at Lin Fan with a smile on his face as he said, “Fan’er, it’s you! Why didn’t you tell us that you were coming back to visit?”

nLin Fan felt a strong disgust when he heard the old master say this.

nEven after everything that happened, he wanted to pretend that they were family?

nIn his dreams!
