Chapter 008: Regret is Futile

Fan Nan looked at Fan Zun and the others with a sinister smile, crossing his arms and squeezing them, producing a series of cracking sounds that made Fan Zun and the others' hearts race in response

Extreme regret

Although much has been restrained over the past century, the inherent ruthlessness has not been diminished; rather, it has settled and accumulated. Now, once it erupts, it becomes uncontrollable

These old fellows have already worn out their welcome; today, it is essential to settle the accounts. Moreover, the non-smoker must not have died in vain; at the very least, these old fellows should accompany him in death

However, before Fan Nan could finish speaking, the loneliness, like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on, widened its eyes and said: "Don't even think about that one million red crystal coins; that is the compensation given by Yun Tianqi, and it has nothing to do with you."

Faced with this scene, even the once blood-soaked killer Fan Canglan found it hard to act. With a sigh, he looked at Fan Zun before him with a complex expression; this young man truly is a competent clan leader

At this moment, Fan Nan appeared to Fan Zun and the others as an unadulterated little devil, and they all deeply regretted it

At this moment, Fan Canglan suddenly waved his hand and said: "No need to look for him, Xiaonan, Grandpa has lived enough and is just about ready to go down and meet Qingya..."

Fan Zun and the seven elders exchanged glances, their eyes filled with a mixture of confusion and surprise

With a piercing gaze, he fixed his eyes on Fan Zun and the seven elders, determined to eliminate these old fellows today.

No, Grandpa, other matters can be set aside, but these old fellows have plotted against you, and Fei Yan cannot die in vain. Today, we must seek justice!

There is no need to look further; I am well aware of your grandfather's condition. His lifespan has diminished. Originally, he had another ten years to live, but due to transferring sixty percent of his vital energy to you, he now has only two years left. If you wish to extend your grandfather's life, you must find a miraculous medicine that can increase lifespan; otherwise, you should prepare for his funeral in two years.

Fan Xuan'er saw her father preparing to seek death and immediately could not hold back, rushing forward to kneel before Fan Canglan, pleading incessantly, with large tears continuously streaming down her face

Fan Canglan was aware of his own situation; the title of "Bloodied Handed Butcher" was not given without reason. In the past, he had indeed been too domineering. If it had been Fan Zun in his place, it is likely that the actions taken would have been even more ruthless, more decisive, and more vicious

This is the most regrettable point, and then Fan Nan turned his eyes and looked at the lonely one with a smile, saying: "Lord Mansion Master, do you remember the one million red crystal coins that Yun Tianqi promised before..."

Ah! Just do your best. Master Fan, my century has come to an end. This is the ancestral spiritual weapon of the Fan family, the Burning Mirror. From now on, I have no further ties with the Fan family. Xiaonan, let us go

"Grandfather, I will definitely find the miraculous medicine for you!" Fan Nan said solemnly

Having spoken, the solitary figure swiftly departed from the Fan family. This time, he merely stopped here briefly as a matter of convenience; he had other matters to attend to and no time to linger.

I am waiting for you, but by then it will not be a matter of just a few slaps; I will definitely kill you

"Where can I find such a miraculous medicine?" Fan Nan stared eagerly at the solitude, for this was the hope of her grandfather's life

Seeing Fan Canglan approaching slowly, Fan Zun glanced at the seven elders beside him, took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said solemnly: "Esteemed Elder, we have indeed been in the wrong over these years. All of this was instigated by me, and they were merely acting on my orders. If punishment is to be meted out, let it be upon me! I hope that, for the sake of Aunt Qingya, you can spare them this time."

... ...

Fan Canglan flicked his sleeve and walked towards the gate of the Fan family, without a trace of reluctance, for there was indeed nothing here that he found worth holding onto

Having spoken, Fan Zun closed his eyes, intending to bear all the blame alone. In this regard, Fan Zun is indeed a person of responsibility.

Having said that, Fan Canglan turned around and left, as he truly did not wish to stay in this place any longer

Regret

Fan Nan does not allow his grandfather to pass away, although his grandfather has a poor reputation outside, he is still the grandfather who raised him

Today, it is imperative to see some blood

It was I who instigated the clan leader; if you wish to kill someone, then let it be me

She curled her lips and, feeling lonely, turned to smile at Fan Nan, saying: "Kid, what exactly is that green mist you just used to restore your body? Show it to me so I can take a look."

This is equivalent to what https://m.hetushu.com.com states, that they have schemed their entire lives only to achieve nothing, and they have also driven away Fan Canglan, who possesses the potential to unleash the power of a Grandmaster in the human realm

Having spoken, Yuntianqi embraced Tongxin and soared into the sky. Shortly thereafter, a large red bird rushed towards them, catching the three of them and spreading its wings as it flew southward

This young man is certainly aware, but I kindly ask the lord of the manor to examine my grandfather's health

And I, at that time, was the one who wanted ... ...

Grandfather, since you cannot bring yourself to kill, then you should incapacitate these eight ungrateful wretches, and I will personally take care of eliminating them. This way, you will not be considered to have broken your promise

A dog that has lost its home is always light, and it may even be killed by some enemies

Of course, all of this is predicated on Fan Nan being able to defeat Tong Xin; otherwise, he would be slain by Tong Xin, and this possibility is quite significant

However, Fan Nan's purpose this time is not focused on those red crystal coins; he has other intentions.

At this moment, everyone was filled with despair; in the presence of such a powerful figure, they had no room for resistance. Among them, some were even more terrified, as they had secretly done many things against Fan Nan over the years, and now they were certain that their prospects were grim.

Looking at this dark mass, Fan Nan felt speechless, as if he were a villain.

Fan Nan was indeed taken aback by the shamelessness of loneliness; it seems the rumors are true, this peculiar lord of the manor possesses such a character

Is that all done

They could not afford to think any further; their gaze was fixed on the one-foot-sized mirror in Fan Zun's hand, which was not only a medium-grade spiritual weapon but also recorded a profound technique of the Earth realm—Burning Body Palm

At this moment, the disciples of the Fan family surrounding the training ground all looked at Fan Canglan with expressions of shock. They had never anticipated that Fan Canglan possessed such strength; this was certainly not the level of a mere half-step master

The matter unrelated to smoking is not over yet. If I find out that it was you who did it, none of you will escape!" With a resentful glare at Fan Zun and the others, Fan Nan also turned and left

Fan Canglan paused, his brows slightly furrowing, and said: "I once promised Qingya that I would not kill the direct descendants of the Fan family. Their schemes can be treated as a calculation against Tushu; this is also something I owe to the Fan family."

Regret has turned my intestines green

Now that the great master of the realm of solitude is present, Fan Nan certainly does not wish to let this opportunity slip away. Over the past few years, his grandfather's health has been declining day by day, which is a sign that the end is near

This is at least a master-level expert

Ah! Fan Zun, I hope you will lead the Fan family well

However, there was something even more regretful and terrifying that happened to them, which was a statement made by Fan Nan

As for how the Fan family would fare after losing these individuals, that was entirely outside of Fan Nan's considerations. Even if the Fan family were to be destroyed, it would have no monetary implications for him. Over the past decade or so, he had not harbored even the slightest affection for the Fan family; their demise would be just fine.

However, when they saw the first line of this profound skill, they were dumbfounded, exchanging glances that revealed the bitterness on their faces

Over the years, he has not considered this aspect, which has allowed Fan Zun and others to become increasingly arrogant. Fan Canglan is not a broad-minded person; in the past, he was known for killing without hesitation.

Damn, this is really troublesome. It seems I have to search for clues on Feiyan's corpse. At this moment, Feiyan's body should be in the ice cave, and I hope to find some clues.

"No! Grandfather, you are my family. No matter what, I will find the divine medicine that extends life for you." Fan Nan looked stubbornly at Fan Canglan, then turned to ask, "Lord Governor, please tell me where I can find the divine medicine for prolonging life."

At this moment, the faces of Fan Zun and the others turned pale. Upon witnessing Fan Canglan's true strength, they no longer believed they had any chance of resistance in front of a Grand Master, even if Fan Canglan could not fully display his power.

With a disdainful glance at Fan Zun and the others, Jimo spoke: "Within Blood Slaughter City, there exists an ancient secret realm passed down from ancient times, known as the Spirit Rhythm Divine Mansion. Inside, you will find the divine medicine you seek. However, to obtain this divine medicine, you must possess the peak strength of a Grandmaster; otherwise, you have no hope whatsoever. Well, I will stop here. Remember to come for the military selection three months from now; only by entering the military can you qualify to enter the Spirit Rhythm Divine Mansion"

The seven elders immediately knelt down, pleading with Fan Canglan and Fan Nan to spare Fan Zun, while the members of the Fan family who had originally been outside the martial arts and library venues also voluntarily knelt before Fan Canglan.

Then Fan Zun turned to Fan Nan, his expression complex as he said: "Xiao Nan, over the years we have indeed wronged you. My own ambitions have been too heavy, but after all, I am the head of the Fan family, and everything is for the sake of the Fan family. However, that Feiyan was not killed by us. At that time, we only saw Feiyan's corpse and then devised that series of schemes. Feiyan was truly not killed by us; the real murderer is someone else, but we have not been able to uncover it. Go ahead and take action!"

This statement brought a moment of joy to Fan Zun and the others, as they did not expect there to be such intricacies involved. However, they were quickly brought back down to earth by a remark from Fan Nan.

Although he was smiling, the murderous intent within was extremely chilling, and everyone present had no doubt that Fan Nan would truly kill Tong Xin at that moment

However, what the loneliness does not know is that with his robust physique and fierce countenance, this smile is truly not commendable and could definitely frighten children

Oh! That is indeed not a breach of promise. I have tolerated you little brats for a long time; today, I shall personally eliminate you to relieve the hatred in my heart

Fan Nan's thoughts shifted slightly as he glanced at the green dot on the mini-map. At this moment, Fan Zun and the others no longer harbored any ill will towards him, suggesting that they were likely not lying. But who exactly killed this Fei Yan?

However, before he left, he also took away that large bell. He found that using this large iron bell in battle was quite an enjoyable experience.

However, the current state of this burning realm was destroyed by a powerful figure a hundred years ago, completely losing its original function

His gaze swept over the crowd present; although some individuals no longer harbored much hostility towards him, a significant portion still retained a degree of animosity.

Hmph! I hope you can still be so stubborn by then

They schemed for decades and obtained it so easily

Hehe... this is a small skill, a natural talent, capable of stimulating the potency of elixirs. However, it is unfortunate that it is only useful for myself and has no effect whatsoever on others

The chilling and bloodthirsty aura was fully unleashed, enveloping everyone in the training ground, especially Fan Zun and the seven elders who were closest to it. Under this terrifying pressure, their bodies began to tremble, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans dripped down one by one, soon soaking their clothes and clinging tightly to their bodies

Come back, for your father deserves his punishment. Xuan'er, after your father is gone, you must not seek revenge. This is your father's final request

However, what concerns everyone the most is that if Fan Canglan and the seven elders were to die, the Fan family would essentially be finished. Without powerful figures to hold the fort, they would surely be swallowed up by other families. At that point, without the protection of the Fan family, their fate would be all too predictable

It is clearly impossible to identify the true culprit based solely on the resolution capability of the small map

To master the divine skill, one must first burn oneself

However, Fan Nan could not help but exclaim that although Fan Zun had been calculating against him in various ways, he was still very dedicated to the entire Fan family, making him a competent head of the family

This is the prerequisite for cultivating the Burning Body Palm. The term "Burning Body" refers to the consumption of a spiritual fruit known as the Flame Burning Body Fruit, and then utilizing the Burning Body Mirror before you to refine the medicinal power of the Flame Burning Body Fruit into the essence of true energy. Without the assistance of the Burning Body Mirror, the outcome would undoubtedly be one of certain death.

Fan Nan is not a magnanimous person. In the past, due to his limited abilities, the members of the Fan family suppressed their various humiliations against him deep in their hearts. If he had not had the opportunity, it would have been one thing, but now that he has this chance, how could he let it slip away

This is a gap in realms that cannot be bridged merely by quantity

"No, Grandpa Fan, please don't kill my father, I beg you!"

Regret

Having said that, he struck Fan Xuan'er on the back of the neck with a palm, rendering her unconscious, and then resolutely gazed at Fan Canglan before him

Fan Zun and others also perked up their ears, quietly waiting for the lonely continuation. Who wouldn't want to live a little longer

Thinking of Qingya, Fan Canglan felt a twinge of sorrow. She was the only woman he had ever loved in his life, yet he had killed her with his own hand. This was the pain of his existence

Fan Canglan was once a ruthless killer known as the Bloodhand Butcher; having come to terms with this, there is naturally no need for any form of politeness now

Elder Taishang, please spare the clan leader

Fan Nan has already decided to go into the ice cave shortly to search for clues, and must not allow that murderer to escape justice

Therefore, he has always adhered to the words spoken by Qingya before her death, even though over the past few decades, Fan Zun and others have acted excessively, he has never resorted to violence.
