Chu Fan chuckled.
"Guess!"
Behind him, Ding Changshui's eyes were already wide with disbelief.
Although Chu Fan didn't directly admit to being Wuming, he knew the Four Vajras couldn't be wrong. Coupled with Chu Fan's unflinching demeanor in the face of this situation, who else could it be but the renowned Wuming?
"Damn trash!"
"Who else could you provoke but this person!"
Ding Changshui cursed the deceased Ding Wuchang in his heart, regretting his rash actions without understanding Chu Fan's identity earlier.
If only he had known Chu Fan was Wuming.
Let alone Ding Wuchang only having an arm broken and being beaten, even if he had been crippled or mentally incapacitated, the Ding family wouldn't have dared to make a peep.
And now.
This god of slaughter had arrived.
Ding Changshui knew full well that with Chu Fan's ability to effortlessly destroy the Blade Sect, even if the Longevity Sect's Four Vajras arrived, the victor was still uncertain.
Ding Changshui quickly thought of dozens of reasons to get rid of this god of slaughter, Chu Fan.
However, it was easy to invite a god but difficult to send one away.
In a situation where he could only be a subordinate, Ding Changshui had no opportunity to speak.
Having basically confirmed Chu Fan was Wuming, a smile appeared on the Great Vajra's stern face.
He cupped his fists and greeted with a chuckle, "So young friend, you are Wuming. Pardon my ignorance!"
He wouldn't have been so polite to anyone else.
But Wuming was different. The Sect Master of the Longevity Sect had long since declared that this young man was not only powerful but also had an unfathomable backing. One could only befriend him, not provoke him.
Therefore, the Four Vajras, who had come to help the Ding family resolve their difficulties, immediately changed their minds and didn't want to fight Chu Fan.
"What?"
"Not going to fight anymore?"
"I've been waiting for you here for half an hour, and this isn't the outcome I was waiting for!"
Chu Fan's tone held displeasure.
He came forward willingly, only for them to talk peace?
What a joke, did they think their time was theirs to waste?
Seeing Chu Fan's strong stance, determined to escalate the conflict, the Great Vajra quickly explained with a smile, "Young friend, there must be some misunderstanding."
"We came because we heard someone was causing trouble here and wanted to take a look."
"We didn't intend to fight."
Bully the weak.
Show weakness to those they couldn't defeat.
Chu Fan's impression of the Longevity Sect didn't improve much.
He said with extreme coldness, "Let me tell you very clearly, I'm not here to chat with you today!"
"I'm here to resolve a matter!"
"If you don't give me an explanation, there will only be one outcome!"
The Great Vajra, unwilling to fight Chu Fan, despite being displeased inwardly by his arrogant attitude, still managed to calm himself and said, "Since it's about resolving a matter, let's resolve it!"
"How does young friend wish to resolve it?"
Behind him, Ding Changshui's heart suddenly leaped upon hearing the Great Vajra's words, his bad premonition intensifying.
Judging by the Great Vajra's clear attempt to appease Chu Fan, he deduced that the Great Vajra would likely push the Ding family forward to appease Chu Fan and hand him over for disposal.
"How to resolve it?"
"Chu Fan hesitated, saying, "The Ding family has done some things that I find quite deplorable."
"I've also heard that the Ding family has bullied others with their power over the years."
"Do you think such a family needs to exist?"
The Great Vajra's mouth twitched.
The Ding family, as a favored clan of the Longevity Sect, had provided them with many good things year-round.
It could be said that the basic livelihood of all members of the Longevity Sect depended on the Ding family, which was why the Four Vajras had rushed to help when Ding Changshui made a call for aid.
Although Chu Fan hadn't specified how the Ding family would be dealt with, his intention was clear: the Ding family was doomed today.
As the Ding family's backer, would he now stand by and watch the Ding family perish?
The Great Vajra was in a difficult position.
However, he soon realized that as long as the Longevity Sect still existed, they could re-establish another Ding family in no time.
But if they missed this opportunity to befriend Chu Fan today, they might never have such a good chance again.
Weighing the options, the Great Vajra said, "Such a family indeed has no need to exist!"
Chu Fan nodded, spreading his hands with a casual air, "Since you think so, then let's act!"
Act?
The Four Vajras were somewhat bewildered.
Act against whom?
Thinking Chu Fan meant they should act against him, the Great Vajra quickly explained, "Young Wuming, did you misunderstand? Didn't I just say we came here just to take a look and didn't intend to fight?"
"No, no, no!"
Chu Fan shook his head, "I'm not asking you to fight me, but to deal with this family that only knows how to bully others with their power."
What?
Ask us to kill our own people?
The Four Vajras' expressions became even more astonished, never expecting such an absurd request to come from Chu Fan's mouth.
Ding Changshui was on the verge of tears. He, the dignified patriarch of the Ding family and a Grandmaster, was now like fish on a chopping block, at the mercy of others.
And that wasn't the most difficult part.
What was most agonizing was that while they were discussing how to deal with the Ding family, he, the representative of the Ding family, had to obediently listen.
Waiting was the most tormenting.
"Young friend, we just came to take a look. Fighting would be inappropriate!"
The Great Vajra pushed back with a forced smile.
He couldn't understand what Chu Fan was thinking.
If he wanted the Ding family to cease to exist, he should have acted himself.
But now, he wanted them to destroy the Ding family? Was that even possible?
Furthermore, he was a Grandmaster, not some minion of yours to be ordered around.
Respecting you was giving you face, but it didn't mean you could command me arbitrarily.
"Is that so?"
"Since you're here, either act against me, or act against that one!"
"I'll give you one minute to choose!"
Chu Fan's indifferent attitude and words were like a heavy slap to the faces of the Four Vajras.
The atmosphere in the scene suddenly became strange.
Fu Piaoyao's face was filled with excitement and anticipation. She hadn't expected Chu Fan to be so audacious, forcing the Longevity Sect's Four Vajras to destroy the Ding family.
She eagerly awaited how the Four Vajras would choose next.
Would they defy Chu Fan?
Or would they, as Chu Fan demanded, exterminate the Ding family supported by the Longevity Sect?
One minute was neither long nor short, but at this moment, it felt extremely long for the Four Vajras.
Wuming, who had single-handedly destroyed the Blade Sect, was someone they truly didn't want to provoke.
However, acting against the Ding family, with whom they had always had a good relationship, was like striking a good friend, and they felt a pang of guilt.
"The minute is up!"
"Give me your choice!"
Chu Fan suddenly spoke, his deep voice carrying immense pressure.
*Plop!*
Ding Changshui, having held on until now, broke down internally and suddenly knelt on the ground.
"Buddy, don't listen to his nonsense!"
"He's been poisoned, and he's doing this because he can't act himself and is bluffing!"
"Don't fall for it!"
