Chapter 783 Interrogation

After being abandoned, He Wuji's face looked like dying ashes, but there was nothing that he could do.

Without any hesitation, he suddenly stood up and started running away from Lin Fan, trying to put as much distance between him and Lin Fan as possible.

It was just too bad that Lin Fan's Nascent Soul Realm pets were waiting behind him.

With a single flick of a tail, He Wuji was hit in the stomach and sent flying back in front of Lin Fan.

To prevent the same thing from happening, Lin Fan cut off one of his legs this time.

As He Wuji roared out in pain, some of the city guards and experts from the City Lord Manor woke up to see this scene.

All of them had looks of horror on their faces as they couldn't believe what they were seeing.

The powerful City Lord, the one symbol of power for them, was currently lying on the ground screaming in pain, missing one of his legs and arms. This once powerful man was now lying on the ground looking this pitiful…

They couldn't believe their eyes, but the facts were in front of them.

Lin Fan also noticed that they had awakened and turned his gaze onto them.

As soon as his gaze fell onto them, they felt like they had been locked onto by the god of death.

Without any hesitation, they immediately fell to the ground, kowtowing as they started begging for their lives.

Lin Fan gave a cold snort when he saw this, but he didn't do anything to them. Instead, he said, "Go back to the City Lord Manor and bring me He Wuji's family. If you do this, I'll spare your lives."

He Wuji stopped screaming out in pain when he heard this and he quickly turned to glare at his subordinates, but every single one of them ignored his gaze.

To them, the most important thing was getting out of this alive. Their past loyalties didn't mean a single thing right now.

All of them quickly bowed their heads and promised Lin Fan that they would before quickly running off.

As for whether they would really do it or not, Lin Fan didn't care.

Without He Wuji, it was impossible for his family to do anything to take revenge on him, so he didn't care if those pieces of trash escaped.

Lin Fan let them go before turning back to He Wuji who now looked at Lin Fan with a completely different gaze once again. There was no more confidence left in his eyes, there was only fear as he looked at this young man.

He couldn't understand where this young man had come from, but he did feel regret.

If only his son hadn't done something foolish back then, perhaps he wouldn't have ended up like this.

Lin Fan didn't care how He Wuji felt, he just grabbed him by the hair and dragged him into the store.

Outside of the street, when the guards blocking off the area saw the guards and experts that had gone into the street run out, they were all confused. But when they learned that the City Lord had been defeated and had been captured, their hearts filled with fear.

Without even bothering thinking of a plan to go rescue He Wuji, everyone just scattered and ran back to their barracks, hoping that they could escape out of this place alive.

When the crowd saw this, they naturally pulled out their cameras and started taking pictures that they shared on the forums.

It didn't take long before this entire matter spread all over Harmony City.

Once it did, everyone began hiding in their homes.

After all, something that had defeated the city guards and the experts of the City Lord Manor, it definitely wasn't something that they could handle. All they could do was wait for the experts of the twelve great factions to come and save them.

There were many different theories that had been posted about what had happened in the business street, but only those that knew inside information knew what had really happened.

As soon as the twelve great factions learned of this, they immediately sent their representatives to Lin Fan's shop.

All of the twelve great factions except for the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association that had closed themselves up.

They had wanted to send representatives as well, but Bing Jun had contacted them to stop them from doing so. As soon as he had received the call from He Wuji, he had already contacted the leaders of these three factions.

Once he knew that He Wuji had failed, he had immediately left Harmony City and returned to the True Spirit Sect. As he went back, there was an unwilling look on his face, but it wasn't as if he could do anything.

Not to mention...their plan was about to start…

The goal that these representatives had was to make sure that Lin Fan was alright, but they were also hoping to rescue He Wuji if it was possible. After all, no matter what, He Wuji was the City Lord and if they couldn't save him, it would hurt their reputation.

It was just too bad that by the time that they arrived, it was already too late.

It was a day after the fight between Lin Fan and He Wuji that these representatives arrived.

When they did, all they found at Lin Fan's store was the corpses of He Wuji and his family.

The city guards and the experts of the City Lord Manor didn't hesitate at all as they brought He Yong and He Wuji's wife to Lin Fan's store. It took them less than an hour to do so.

When these two were brought to Lin Fan's store, they had terrified looks on their faces, but they were still confident that nothing would happen to them. That was until they saw He Wuji lying there without a single limb.

They had thought that He Wuji would save them like he had always done, but when they saw him lying there just as a torso and head, their last bit of hope died.

Looking at Lin Fan standing over He Wuji, they revealed complicated looks.

He Yong had the most complicated look since he never would have expected that this lowly commoner would be able to defeat his invincible father.

? As he stared at Lin Fan standing over He Wuji, he was filled with regret over his actions. If he hadn't provoked Lin Fan in the past, perhaps none of this would have happened.

Lin Fan didn't care as he came over to He Yong and He Wuji's wife. He put his sword at their necks and said to He Wuji, "Tell me everything that you know or they'll die."

He Wuji had a look of despair as he said, "I've already told you everything that I know, there's nothing else I can tell you!"

This was the truth, before Lin Fan had cut off his remaining arm and leg, he had already told Lin Fan everything that he had known. It was just that Lin Fan chose to keep interrogating him even when he swore that he knew nothing.

Lin Fan could tell that he indeed didn't know anything, but he was also taking his revenge, so he kept pushing it.

Lin Fan brought He Yong out and said, "I'll give you one last chance."

He Wuji looked at his son and begged, "Please, just let my son go. I promise that I've already told you everything."

Lin Fan ignored this and just slit He Yong's throat right in front of He Wuji, letting the blood splatter all over his face.

He Wuji's eyes died when he saw this. After a moment of being in a daze, he cursed with all his strength, "I will haunt you from the very pits of hell! I swear, I will never let you off."

Lin Fan just looked at him with cold eyes and said, "You won't have that chance."

Then without even giving He Wuji a chance to say anything, he stabbed He Wuji right through the head, ending his life.

He Wuji's wife who had been silently watching from the side pissed herself at this moment as her fear completely took over her. She knew that she was dead, but she didn't want to die.

So she used the only thing that she had left to her, her beauty.

She lowered the straps at her shoulder to reveal more skin as she said in a seductive voice, "I'll give you whatever you want as long as you let me go."

She was indeed quite the beauty which was why He Wuji had married her in the first place. It was just too bad for her that Lin Fan had already seen true beauty in Angela and the other girls, so a beauty of her level couldn't move him.

Lin Fan just gave a snort as he cut off her head.

Back to the present, the representatives of the nine great factions looked at the three corpses in front of them with complicated expressions. The strongest emotion that they were feeling was actually fear since they never thought that Lin Fan would be this cruel.

But since it was already done, there was nothing that they could do about this.

After all, Lin Fan's value far outweighed the value of this He Wuji.

If He Wuji died, it would just hurt their reputation a bit, but they could still replace him.

In these dangerous times, losing a bit of reputation wouldn't hurt them too badly.

But if Lin Fan was hurt, that was not a loss that they could afford.
