Lin Fan's first response was, "What is this wedding announcement that you sent me? Do you have more information on this?"
Old man Qiao was surprised and confused when he heard this, but he still honestly answered, "We just received a notice that the wedding was being held by the Liao Family and the couple who was getting married was named Liao Ping and Lin Xue. This is just a normal notice from one of the elders of the True Spirit Sect, is it really worth noting?"
Lin Fan gritted his teeth and asked, "When is the wedding?"
Old man Qiao hesitantly said, "It's being held in a month from now. Is something wrong?"
Old man Qiao could clearly hear that there was something off about Lin Fan's voice, but he couldn't tell what exactly…
But then when he thought about it for a bit, he suddenly realized something.
The name of the bride was Lin Xue…The surname of Lin, could it be that she was someone related to Lin Fan?
If that was the case, that would explain everything. However, that would also throw a wrench in their plans since he knew that Lin Fan would certainly interfere with this wedding if this was the case.
This was a very fragile time for their twelve great factions and Lin Fan was one of their important cooperators, so if he were to create a mess at this time…
But it wasn't as if he could order Lin Fan around. They were partners and not master and subordinate, so he didn't have the right to order Lin Fan around. Even if Lin Fan was a hunter and he was an elder of the Hunters Association, he knew that the Hunter License was just something that Lin Fan had gotten out of convenience.
If he no longer needed it, Lin Fan would give up the Hunter License, the object that countless people on this Galactic Humanity Alliance dreamed of without any hesitation.
So old man Qiao started wracking his head for all kinds of solutions to this problem, but he wasn't able to come up with anything useful in the end.
Old man Qiao decided to cast this all away and said, "Xiao Fan, you shouldn't act hasty. Let's calm down and…"
Before he could finish, Lin Fan cut him off by saying, "Thank you for your concern, but it's fine. If you have any other information on the wedding, please send it to me as soon as possible."
Without even giving old man Qiao a chance to say anything, he hung up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOld man Qiao just sat there looking at his watch with a stunned look on his face.
He could tell from Lin Fan's voice that he was drawing a clear line with their Hunters Organization. It seemed like he was going to take care of this alone, but how could he let that happen?
Lin Fan was now a very important person not just to their Hunters Organization, but also the twelve great factions that they were allied with. Not only was he their precious supplier of Child Soul Realm and Nascent Soul Realm beasts, the master behind him would be their ultimate trump card.
Someone that could pull out Child Soul Realm and Nascent Soul Realm beasts that easily and even claim to be able to train True Soul Realm beasts, all of which were clearly beyond the capabilities of Lin Fan alone, was definitely someone that they couldn't underestimate. This kind of person might even be some super expert from some Stellar Kingdom that had come down for some unknown reason.
However, the fact that he was willing to send his disciple Lin Fan to create relations with their twelve great factions showed that he was willing to cooperate with them, which was all they could ask for.
Especially when they were facing the unknown enemies that were backing the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association.
As their only link to this master, naturally Lin Fan's importance was hard to measure.
After thinking for a bit, old man Qiao pressed a few buttons on his watch and made a few more calls.
It seemed like this would be a busy time for him.
…
After hanging up on the call, Lin Fan just stood there with a dark look on his face.
His subordinates who had noticed something happening all looked at him with wary looks. They had never seen Lin Fan like this, it was almost as if anyone who approached him would be instantly frozen by him.
As for Lin Fan himself, all he could think to himself was, "That son of a b*tch!"
That piece of trash from the Liao Family, he couldn't win his mother from his father, so now he was targeting the younger generation?
There was a gap between generations and he was touching his little sister?
He was right about that person, he was nothing more than trash…but he was trash that had a powerful family behind him, so he could afford to remain the piece of trash that he was.
But Lin Fan wouldn't allow this to happen.
This was the main reason that he had come up to the Galactic Humanity Alliance, so if he allowed this wedding to happen, it would mean that he failed.
He had thought that he had some more time to prepare before he headed to the Liao Family, but since they were inviting him, there was no reason for him not to accept this invitation.
After all, he was already basically prepared.
With the lucky downfall of three True Soul Realm allies, it meant that he had the confidence to do this.
If the True Spirit Sect really wanted to start something with him, it wasn't as if he wouldn't be able to fight back. He also didn't worry that the Thunder Sect and the Assassins Association would interfere in this matter.
After all, they were about to declare war on all the other twelve great factions and Lin Fan was just a single person that had now drawn a line with the other twelve great factions. They wouldn't ruin their plan just to help the True Spirit Sect.
This was also why Lin Fan was confident that the True Spirit Sect wouldn't go all out against him.
A single elder family against their plan that involved all the twelve great factions, it was clear which one would be sacrificed.
But Lin Fan didn't want to charge into this without any plans at all.
He had already started laying down the foundations for his plans against the Liao Family, but that didn't mean that he had any concrete plans yet. After all, he had thought that he had more time to prepare everything, so he had only started laying the foundations.
It seemed like it would be a busy two weeks for him.
Once these thoughts passed through his mind, Lin Fan let out a sigh and turned his
attention to his subordinates.
He narrowed his eyes as he began to think, planning out the role that they would play.
The one problem with his subordinates was that they were all too weak. Even if they had been cultivating, it wasn't as if they could break through that easily.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo most of them wouldn't be able to play a role in his plan normally.
But Lin Fan had something that others didn't.
He had been receiving Child Soul Realm eggs and Nascent Soul Realm eggs from the twelve great factions and he had been hatching them. The amount of Child Soul Realm and Nascent Soul Realm beasts that Lin Fan currently had was much greater than any of the twelve great factions.
So while his subordinates were weak, he could supplement them with these beasts.
They couldn't form contracts with them since they were much weaker than the beasts, but Lin Fan could have these beasts follow their orders since he had already formed contracts with them.
They wouldn't be as strong as normal Nascent Soul Realm and Child Soul Realm Experts since there was a disparity in cultivation, so the beasts themselves would be affected, but Lin Fan could make up for it with numbers.
An elder family would have at most two Nascent Soul Realm Experts, so if Lin Fan just threw five Nascent Soul Realm beasts at them, that would already be enough to smother them. Not to mention that he had far more Nascent Soul Realm beasts than that.
So using his subordinates wasn't a problem at all. In fact, they had something that others didn't have, their loyalty towards him.
So that was actually the benefit of using his subordinates.
Seeing the way Lin Fan looked at them, they couldn't help feeling a chill run down their spine, but they still just stood there waiting for him to say something.
That was their loyalty on full display.
Lin Fan just let them do their own thing and train in this arena as he went back upstairs to make another call.
When the call connected, Xu Lin immediately said, "I'm sorry, I don't know anything about this either."
It was clear that he had already heard about the wedding announcement from the Liao Family and he knew that he was at fault for this. Lin Fan had assigned him to watch over Lin Xue and Yue Qingruo, but he had allowed something like this to happen without even knowing how it happened.
This was without a doubt a violation of his orders.
It wouldn't be a surprise if Lin Fan were to punish him.
But he could only face it since he knew that it was his mistake.
