Unrivaled Soldier in the City

In an instant, dozens of people from the Fan Family rushed out, converging on the ancient castle where Fan Wudao was located. At their head was a middle-aged man at the Skyline realm, followed by two or three other Skyline experts. The rest were all Postnatal masters.

Seeing this, Fan Wucheng’s expression turned grim. The opposing group’s strength was formidable, shaking him to the core.

As the group charged forward, Lin Kuang, Pei Yuandong, and Yao Zhao quickly moved to intercept them. At the same time, Yao Shan also hurried over. With so many opponents, he was worried Yao Zhao might get injured, especially since Yao Zhao was a leading figure of the Yao Family’s younger generation.

"Who are you? Why are you attacking our Fan Family?" Fan Wucheng demanded solemnly, signaling for his men to prepare for a fight.

Lin Kuang chuckled at the sight. "Everyone," he began, his voice suddenly turning serious, "perhaps you are unaware, but your Family Head, Fan Wudao, is a member of the Demon Sect. We are here to kill him and eradicate this cancer!"

At Lin Kuang’s words, Fan Wucheng’s expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. How could my own elder brother be a member of the Demon Sect? This is utterly absurd!

"You may not believe it, but the man fighting over there is a protector Elder from Wumi Building, and this information has been confirmed by them. You should all be well aware of what the Demon Sect is. Therefore, Fan Wudao must die, and so must all these Demon Sect members! Furthermore, the person fighting the Elder from Wumi Building is a Demon Emissary!" Lin Kuang announced.

Hearing this, Fan Wucheng’s face fell again, clear hesitation in his eyes. He knew exactly what kind of organization Wumi Building was and what it represented. Their intelligence had never been wrong. He couldn’t believe that the powerful Wumi Building would spread false rumors just to target the Fan Family. As these thoughts raced through his mind, he grew even more hesitant, unsure of what to do.

Just then, Fan Wudao roared, "Second Brother, order everyone to attack! Don’t listen to their nonsense! That man is a friend of mine, not some Demon Emissary! Don’t believe them!"

Fan Wucheng’s expression faltered, the uncertainty in his eyes deepening. After all, Fan Wudao was his elder brother.

Just as Fan Wucheng was torn about whether to act, Fan Bingbing and Fan Bin arrived.

"Dad, don’t listen to Uncle! He’s from the Demon Sect!" Fan Bingbing shouted as she ran up to Fan Wucheng.

Indeed, this was Fan Wucheng, Fan Bingbing’s father and Fan Wudao’s younger brother.

"Bingbing? What are you doing here?" Fan Wucheng asked, surprised by his daughter’s arrival.

"I was worried you’d be deceived, so I came. Dad, don’t attack. Uncle really is a member of the Demon Sect," Fan Bingbing said, looking at her father.

Fan Wucheng furrowed his brow. "Bingbing, how can you be so sure that the Family Head is from the Demon Sect?"

"Because... because Lin Kuang told me, and Wumi Building has confirmed it. Also, Lin Kuang is my man."

As she spoke, she walked over to Lin Kuang, a blush on her face. She took his hand, her heart instantly filling with a sweet warmth.

Fan Wucheng was stunned. He had no idea his daughter was in love with someone, and the revelation was jarringly abrupt. "Is... is this true?" he stammered, looking at his daughter.

Fan Bingbing nodded vigorously. "Yes, Dad, it’s true. Lin Kuang is the man I love. I trust him not to lie to me. Besides, you know what kind of organization Wumi Building is. Do you really think they would ruin their reputation just to kill someone from our Fan Family? Unless they’re fools, I’m sure they would never do that," she said, looking her father in the eye.

Fan Wucheng nodded. "I know, but... but that’s your uncle we’re talking about. Is this information really accurate?" he said hesitantly. After all, this was his own older brother.

"Uncle Fan," Lin Kuang began, "are you aware that Fan Wudao has sent assassins after me more than once just to keep Bingbing and me apart? He sent the Shadow Guard, Fan Zeyu, and even an expert at the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top. However, I dealt with all of them. Furthermore, he knows my identity—that I’m from the Lin Family of Yanjing. He’s afraid that with me in the picture, combined with Bingbing’s excellent performance in the assessments, she would be a shoo-in to become the next Family Head. He fears his own son would lose any chance at the position, and that’s why he did all this."

Fan Wucheng’s face turned pale. He had no idea about any of this and had never imagined his own brother could be such a person. Fan Bingbing also looked at Lin Kuang in astonishment, as she too was unaware her uncle had done these things.

"Is this all true?" Fan Wucheng asked, his voice trembling slightly.

"Of course. I have no reason to lie to you," Lin Kuang replied. "And it isn’t just Wumi Building that has come today. The Zhantai, Yao, and Pei Ancient Martial Arts families are here as well."

Hearing this, Fan Wucheng nodded, his expression grim. "Alright. I understand. I know what to do now."

"Second Brother! Are you trying to rebel?! Don’t listen to their lies! Get our men to attack!" Fan Wudao yelled, his eyes filled with desperation.

Pei Chengwu’s strength was immense, completely overwhelming him. If he didn’t unleash his Demonic Qi soon, he would be killed. But if he did, his identity would be completely exposed, and he would be doomed all the same. So, Fan Wudao was growing frantic. If his family members would just intervene, he wouldn’t have to reveal his Demonic Qi and would naturally be safe.

Hearing Fan Wudao’s shouts, Fan Wucheng remained silent, just watching. In truth, his heart was in turmoil. However, despite his hesitation, he knew that in a matter this grave, he had to choose justice over family. The Demon Sect was simply too terrifying—a common enemy that had to be eradicated by all.

Seeing that Fan Wucheng made no move, the other members of the Fan Family didn’t dare to act either. They simply stood there, watching quietly.

"You’re a cunning one, Fan Wudao," Pei Chengwu sneered. "Fine. I’ll just have to force out your Demonic Qi and let everyone see you for who you really are!"
