nBut of course, Lin Fan didn’t shatter their hopes right away since he was here to torture them before killing them.

nHe had promised that he would make things as painful as he could for the family of the original owner of this body so that they could suffer the same pain as him.

nThough there were a few that he would be sparing so that the Lin Family would be able to maintain the stability of this place in the future.

nThough that was all being handled by the Control Toad.

nAll Lin Fan had to do was take care of the four that were in front of him.

nLin Fan looked at the old master and said, “Is that so, grandfather? Then when I was poisoned, why did no one help me if we’re all one big family?”

nThe old master revealed a very ugly expression when he heard this, but he quickly made that expression disappear as he said with a smile, “Fan’er, I have no idea what you mean. Poison? Aren’t you standing here perfectly healthy in front of me? Are you saying that someone tried to poison you?”

nLin Fan just gave a snort and shook his head with a smile of disdain when he heard this.

nThe old master’s heart tensed seeing this, but he didn’t give up hope as he said, “Fan’er, if someone tried to hurt you before, I’ll make sure that they pay for what they did.”

nAfter saying this, he turned to look at the third master since the third master was the father of the original owner of this body.

nThe third master had been in complete shock at this, but he forced himself to calm down and suppress the complicated feelings that he felt.

nIn no time at all, he revealed a concerned look and said, “Fan’er, where have you been? You suddenly disappeared and we’ve all been worried about you.”

n“Humph.” Lin Fan just gave a casual snort as he said, “Worried? Sure you were.”

nThe third master knitted his brows slightly, but then he acted like he was bothered by this as he said, “Of course I would be worried about you since I’m your father. Like father said, if there was anyone that tried to hurt you, I will make them pay the price.”

nThe old master gave a nod of approval before saying, “Right, Fan’er, we are a family. This is what family does.”

nFinally, the first and second masters reacted as well and tried to support the old master and the third master.

nBut seeing them act this way, it really made Lin Fan feel disgusted.

nHe had already seen through them and they were shameless enough to pretend like nothing had happened.

nIf their faces were used to guard a city, it would definitely be invincible.

nBut he also didn’t say anything as they kept trying to turn him to their side.

nAfter a while, the old master finally said, “Fan’er, we’re all family here. How about we forget this matter and talk this out? You should know that family is the most important thing.”

nLin Fan didn’t say anything as he looked at the third master.

nHe had been looking at the third master the entire time without saying a single word which had unnerved him, but the third master had to act like there was nothing wrong the entire time.

nWhen the old master stopped talking, Lin Fan suddenly said, “You said that you would help me take care of all those that tried to poison me, right?”

nHearing the way that he said this, which seemed like there was a possibility of talking this through, the old master quickly said with a nod and a smile, “Fan’er, you are a member of the Lin Family. If anyone wants to bully you, then they have to come through us first.”

nThe other three masters all nodded in agreement to this.

nLin Fan also gave a nod after a pause before saying with a smile, “Then I want to take care of him, what do you think?”

nAs he said this, he pointed his finger at the third master.

nThe moment that Lin Fan’s finger pointed in his direction, the third master revealed a very ugly expression.

nIt was clear that he never expected Lin Fan to say something like this.

nThe old master was also taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly came forward to mediate as he said, “Fan’er, what are you saying? That is your father, how could he try to do anything to you?”

nLin Fan just calmly looked over at the old master with a smile on his face as he said, “Are you sure about that? Do you really think that he wouldn’t do anything? I think you know in your heart what the answer is.”

nThe old master really wanted to deny this, but he couldn’t when he saw the look on Lin Fan’s face.

nThat was the look of someone who clearly knew everything already, but was just making fun of them.

nThe old master quickly started weighing the pros and cons in his head.

nAfter all, there were just too many things to consider at this point.

nThe third master was the greatest genius of the second generation of the Lin Family. He was someone that they would depend on in the future, so he was someone that was very important to the Lin Family.

nBut now there was a Lin Fan who had appeared out of nowhere. Follow current novls on NovlFire(.)nt

nThe old master wasn’t able to see through Lin Fan’s cultivation and Lin Fan had demonstrated this strange skill to control people.

nWhen he weighed the two of them, it seemed that Lin Fan might really be the better option.

nSo did that mean that he would have to sacrifice the third master to bring Lin Fan back into their Lin Family?

nHe wanted to think of a way to get them both to become the pillar of the Lin Fan so that they would become even stronger in the future.

nBut there really didn’t seem to be a way.

nThat was until there was another secret passage that opened and an old man walked out.

nThis old man had a bent back and looked like he was about to collapse any moment, but the aura that came from this old man was anything but normal.

nWhen this old man came in, the old master’s eyes immediately lit up as he said, “Elder Qian! You’re finally here!”

nThe old man gave a nod to the old master before saying, “What’s wrong? Why are you so panicked?”

nThe old master shot a cautious look at Lin Fan, as if he was scared that Lin Fan would do something. But when he saw Lin Fan just standing there as if he didn’t have a care in the world, the old master quickly explained the situation to this old man he called Elder Qian.

nElder Qian gave a nod as he listened along before turning to look at Lin Fan.

nWhen he did, he couldn’t help revealing a surprised look as he said, “Young man, you really are something. As expected of the descendant of my brother.”

nThis Elder Qian was someone from a generation even above the old master’s.

nThis Elder Qian was someone who was friends with the old master’s father, the founder of the Lin Family.

nThe founder had died early and Elder Qian guarded the Lin Family now out of respect for his brother. Though Elder Qian didn’t really seem like he had that many years left in him.

nStill, Elder Qian was the strongest expert that the Lin Family had.

nElder Qian was in the Peak Foundation Realm, far above the third master who was only in the Mid Foundation Realm.

nSo he was the strongest trump card of the Lin Family.

nAfter a moment of silence, Elder Qian gave a sigh and said, “Young man, sometimes you need to learn to forgive and forget. You’re a member of the Lin Family no matter what happened in the past, so you shouldn’t hold onto these grudges against family members.”

nLin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at Elder Qian before saying, “Who do you think you are to say these things to me? Are you qualified to lecture me?”

nElder Qian gave another sigh before saying, “It seems like the young descendant of my brother really is arrogant. I guess that the only thing that this old man can do is teach a lesson to this young child.”

nElder Qian looked at the old master and said, “Old master, I’m afraid that I’ll have to get a bit rough with this child.”

nThe old master bit his lip for a second, but he still gave a nod to say, “Un, please try to capture him alive.”

nElder Qian gave a chuckle as he said, “Not a problem. It’s just a naughty child, it won’t take more than a few seconds.”

nThe three masters all let out sighs of relief when they heard this.

nElder Qian was the pillar of their Lin Family and as long as Elder Qian was here, nothing would happen to their Lin Family. That was how strong their faith in Elder Qian was.

nElder Qian took a step forward and said with a chuckle, “Young man, I’m afraid that this old man will have to teach you a lesson. I hope you can learn from this and move forward as a better person.”

nThere was a snap that rang out when Elder Qian’s voice fell.

nThen when Elder Qian looked down, he found that there was an icicle that was stuck in his chest.
