“Do you have anything else to say today?” Lu Fan asked coldly, his killing intent surging.
“Since you intend to kill me, what more can I say!” The Lin family’s grand uncle smiled bitterly. “It’s just a pity that I couldn’t kill you back then, and now that you’ve grown, it’s a great misfortune for my Lin family!”
“A great misfortune for the Lin family?” Lu Fan sneered instantly, his anger flaring. “While that may be true, this will ultimately be your fault!”
As he spoke, the Lin family’s grand uncle sneered, ‘“Fault? What fault is there to speak of? It’s simply the victor takes all!”’
Lu Fan did not say much more. A stream of light surged out, and the Lin family’s grand uncle met his untimely end.
At this very moment, in a secret place within the Lin family, the Lin family’s head saw his grand uncle’s soul lamp extinguish. His face turned deathly pale, having never expected things to turn out this way.
“The grand uncle’s soul lamp is out, doesn’t that mean the grand uncle has been killed!” a young Lin family member exclaimed, his heart filled with shock. He had not expected things to escalate to this point, leaving him caught off guard.
“It must be the work of the Assassin Dynasty!” the Lin family elders declared, their imposing aura evident. They clearly hadn't expected the Assassin Dynasty to be so audacious, daring to kill even the Lin family’s grand uncle, showing no regard for the Lin family whatsoever.
At the same time, the expressions of everyone present shifted. The death of the Lin family’s grand uncle was a devastating blow to the entire Lin family.
“Elders, heed my command! Mobilize all of the Lin family’s strong cultivators to investigate the Assassin Dynasty!” the Lin family head ordered sternly. “How can the Lin family stand idly by after daring to kill our grand uncle!”
“We obey your command!” The elders cupped their fists, not daring to show the slightest negligence.
Meanwhile, the Lin family head changed his attire and addressed several other grand uncles, “The Assassin Dynasty has gone too far. If we don’t eradicate the Assassin Dynasty, how can the Lin family maintain its prestige? Today, I shall go to the Xuan Guang Sacred Land!”
The grand uncles remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly. The situation had reached a point where it was indeed beyond their control.
After some time, the Lin family head arrived at the Xuan Guang Sacred Land. Upon seeing the Lin family head’s arrival, the Xuan Guang Sacred Master personally came to greet him, “Patriarch Lin’s personal visit to the Xuan Guang Sacred Land, may I ask the reason for your visit?”
“The Assassin Dynasty is too arrogant. One of my Lin family’s grand uncles recently died at their hands!” the Lin family head stated directly. “This matter is of great importance. If we allow Hao Tian to grow, how will our respective sacred lands maintain their prestige in the future!”
“Patriarch Lin’s words align with my own thoughts!” The Xuan Guang Sacred Master nodded slightly, a pleased expression in his eyes. “The Assassin Dynasty’s Hao Tian has also killed one of our sacred land’s Grand Elders. The Xuan Guang Sacred Land harbors deep hatred for him!”
“In that case, let us join forces to deal with the Assassin Dynasty and deploy our strongest forces!” the Lin family head declared.
Upon hearing this, the Xuan Guang Sacred Master was slightly surprised. He hadn’t expected the Lin family head to be so decisive.
“Does Patriarch Lin mean that both of us will personally venture out?” the Xuan Guang Sacred Master inquired again.
“Indeed!” The Lin family head nodded slightly, his gaze serious, showing no hesitation on this matter.
With these words, the Xuan Guang Sacred Master also nodded. “Since that is the case, then we shall attack the Assassin Dynasty!”
Not long after, the alliance of the two great powers caused quite a stir.
After killing the Lin family’s grand uncle, Lu Fan returned to the Assassin Dynasty, carrying the head of the Lin family’s grand uncle.
“Congratulations on your return, Commander!” Ghost Shadow and the others cupped their fists, their faces beaming with joy. They had not expected Lu Fan to return so quickly.
“Commander, did Xu Fei not return with you?” Sister Zhao asked with a hint of suspicion.
“Isn’t he at the sub-branch?” Lu Fan frowned. “Did he leave the sub-branch?”
“He said today that he was going to accompany the Commander for revenge. Could it be that the Commander did not encounter him?” Sister Zhao’s brow furrowed.
“Didn’t I tell you long ago? That you should not easily leave the sub-branch?” Lu Fan’s expression changed. The outside was very chaotic now. He had just killed the Lin family’s grand uncle; the Lin family would not let this matter rest easily.
“It’s my fault for not stopping him, otherwise this wouldn't have happened!” Sister Zhao said helplessly. “I will go out and search now. Perhaps he will be back soon!”
“Ghost Shadow, take the other experts of the Assassin Dynasty and search together. Make sure to find Xu Fei!” Lu Fan’s expression was solemn. The people from the Eighteen Sects of the Nine Provinces were brought here by him. He would never allow anything to happen to anyone. Three years ago, Grandpa Shen died tragically, leaving Lu Fan with immense guilt. How could he allow such a thing to happen again?
Ghost Shadow cupped his fist slightly and led the numerous experts of the Assassin Dynasty towards various parts of the Eastern Domain, searching for Xu Fei. At this very moment, they also learned that the Lin family and the Xuan Guang Sacred Land had joined forces, preparing to take action against the Assassin Dynasty. This time, they had mobilized countless experts, truly going all out.
After a period of searching, they still had no news of Xu Fei, and they were greatly puzzled, unsure of Xu Fei’s whereabouts. Upon receiving the news, Lu Fan’s brow furrowed even deeper. He had not expected things to turn out this way, leaving him somewhat caught off guard and feeling a slight worry.
“Commander, this is bad! We just received news that besides the Lin family and the Xuan Guang Sacred Land, there are also the Yaochi Sacred Land and eight other sacred lands who wish to jointly attack the Assassin Dynasty!” Mudan’s voice sounded as she walked over.
“Nine Sacred Lands?” Lu Fan’s face instantly turned ashen. He had not expected the Lin family and the Xuan Guang Sacred Land to have such strong influence as to mobilize people from nine sacred lands. This was enough to show that they were determined to eradicate the Assassin Dynasty completely.
“The situation is critical now, should we seal the barrier?” Ghost Shadow asked. “If we do, perhaps we can conceal our heavenly secrets and not worry about those things!”
“I’m afraid it’s too late!” Lu Fan shook his head. “If I’m not mistaken, our location has already been exposed!”
“How is that possible!” Ghost Shadow shook his head. “The people of the Assassin Dynasty would never betray the Assassin Dynasty, so our barrier is absolutely safe!”
“With the combined might of the nine sacred lands, they must have ways to use soul-searching techniques!” Lu Fan shook his head. “If Xu Fei falls into their hands, then the experts of the nine sacred lands are probably already heading towards us!”
With Lu Fan’s words, everyone present was stunned and filled with worry. They did not know if Lu Fan’s words were true, but these words made a lot of sense, forcing them to consider the implications. Su Dan Novel Network.
“Commander, this is bad! Many people have appeared outside the barrier, looking like an endless tide. They are probably people from the nine sacred lands!” a killer ran over, his face filled with panic and his expression contorted.
