Qian Clan Arrives, Shocking!

"Please, stay your step!"

Coming to his senses, Dugu Bo hurriedly called out, even utilizing his soul power to directly seal the carriage.

"Old Senior, have you made your decision?"

Lin Fan's lips curled into a smile; he knew that given Dugu Bo's doting love for his granddaughter, he would absolutely agree.

Even if there was only the slightest glimmer of hope!

"..."

Taking a deep breath, Dugu Bo asked in a low voice, "Are you truly certain you can evolve my granddaughter's Martial Soul?"

"If I weren't certain, how would I dare to appear before you?"

Lin Fan laughed, "The whole world knows that Poison Douluo is no saint; I have no desire to court death."

Hearing this, Lin Qingfeng's mouth twitched violently. You know he's no saint, yet you dare say that to his face?

Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death?

"Hahaha."

Dugu Bo, however, burst into loud laughter, "Good, good lad, you have guts! If anyone else dared to speak to me like this, they would have been poisoned to death by me long ago!"

"However, don't get happy too soon."

Dugu Bo said in a deep voice, "I will bring my granddaughter here. When the time comes, if you cannot cure her, I will have all your kin buried with you!"

"Hmph, get out of here."

Seeming to feel that he had been led by the nose by Lin Fan today, Dugu Bo's expression turned unsightly. Not wanting to say another word to Lin Fan, he flicked his sleeve, and a burst of soul power directly sent Lin Fan and Lin Qingfeng flying out.

With the matter resolved, Lin Fan didn't care about Dugu Bo's attitude and swaggered toward his own carriage.

Not until they returned to their carriage did Lin Qingfeng let out a long sigh of relief, his face full of lingering fear, "Fan'er... do you realize that was a Title Douluo? One of the strongest beings on the entire Douluo Continent?"

"I know."

Lin Fan remained indifferent. If it were any other Title Douluo, he certainly wouldn't dare to stir up trouble like this.

But Dugu Bo had a weakness.

Once a person has a weakness, no matter how powerful they are, they become vulnerable to being manipulated.

"You really are... daring beyond measure!"

Lin Qingfeng sighed with emotion, then suddenly asked, "Can you truly evolve other people's Martial Souls?"

"I can."

Lin Fan nodded, "Once my soul power is higher, perhaps I can even help you evolve, Father. By then, once the Frost Sword Martial Soul is rid of its flaws, you might be able to advance even further."

After a moment of hesitation, Lin Fan suddenly asked, "Father, do I have any grandparents? Are they stuck at a certain realm just like you?"

"If there are any, tell me, and I will definitely strive to help you all step into a higher realm!"

"When that time comes, I can finally enjoy my life in peace. As long as you are all powerful enough, no one in this world will dare to provoke me!"

Accustomed to being a rich second generation, Lin Fan really didn't want to struggle for himself.

At first, Lin Qingfeng listened to Lin Fan's words and thought he was being filial, feeling quite touched, but his expression grew darker and darker.

"Bang!"

Lin Qingfeng couldn't help but pat Lin Fan on the head, gritting his teeth, "Our family has no powerhouses, so stop dreaming of throwing your weight around!"

"Fine."

Lin Fan pouted, having no choice but to turn his gaze toward Lin Qingfeng.

Since there was no one more powerful, he could only rely on his father to rise to the top; he would just have to be a "father-dependent" then.

I've already called you Father, you have to shield me from the wind and rain, right?

That's only fair!

Without Dugu Bo and Xue Beng blocking the way, the carriage soon returned to the Lin Clan.

However, outside the Lin Clan gates today, there was actually another carriage parked.

On it was the emblem of a deer.

"Hmm? Your mother's family is here!"

Lin Qingfeng frowned, seemingly displeased.

Noticing this, Lin Fan couldn't help but ask, "What is it? Is my mother's side on bad terms with our family?"

"Did they ever bully my mother?"

Are you kidding me? Lin Fan had been in this world for over six years, and it was Qian Shu who had been taking care of him the entire time. If anyone dared to bully Qian Shu, regardless of their status, Lin Fan would make them regret ever coming into this world.

Lin Qingfeng, being a Soul Saint, sensed the killing intent within Lin Fan and couldn't help but laugh, "You child, it's good to be filial, but those are your mother's kin; you must not be rude to them."

Pausing for a moment, Lin Qingfeng said, "It's not that we are on bad terms, it's just that we are not from the Heaven Dou Empire. Back then, my marriage to your mother wasn't recognized by either family, so we ran away here."

"Even after you were born, although my parents and your mother's parents eventually accepted it, they rarely ever visit."

"They only came when you were born, and now they have returned. I have a feeling that something unusual is about to happen."

Lin Qingfeng sighed, allowing Lin Fan to understand a bit more about his own family background.

His grandparents on both sides were present, and they were likely from two families that could be considered influential powers!

This realization immediately filled Lin Fan with secret delight.

If his father's martial soul had mutated and he could still reach the Soul Saint realm at such a young age, wouldn't the older generation have even higher cultivation levels?

His muscle—ah, no, his relatives—had finally arrived, hadn't they?

When the time came, he could just call upon his elders to capture soul beasts for him, and wouldn't he be invincible then?

Thinking of this, Lin Fan grinned. Without waiting for Lin Qingfeng to finish speaking, he jumped off the carriage and sprinted toward the Lin residence.

Rushing back into the courtyard, Lin Fan hadn't even stepped into the main hall before he sensed that something was wrong.

His mother, Qian Shu, was sitting on the right, while a middle-aged woman in her forties with a graceful figure and refined features occupied the main seat.

At this moment, both of their expressions were quite grave.

Their gazes were fixed on a young girl sitting on the other side.

The girl was not very old, likely around the same age as Lin Fan, yet she looked extremely frail, her face pale and listless.

"What is going on here?"

Lin Fan paused his steps, doubt rising in his heart.

"Fan'er, you're back!"

Qian Shu noticed Lin Fan's return, and the grave expression on her face instantly vanished. Her face lit up with joy as she hurried out to meet him, pulling Lin Fan into her arms.

At the same time, both the middle-aged woman and the young girl turned their gazes toward Lin Fan.

Immediately, their expressions shifted slightly.

The middle-aged woman was also a soul master of no low rank, so she could naturally sense how powerful the soul power aura within Lin Fan's body was.

"Sister."

"Is this your Fan'er?"

Qian Ying frowned slightly and said, "If I remember correctly, he only awakened his martial soul a few days ago. How is it that he already possesses an aura nearing that of a Soul Grand Master?"

Beyond his own aura, the soul power of the soul beasts he had captured was also leaking out through his body, which was what had startled Qian Ying.

Hearing Qian Ying's confusion, Qian Shu felt a secret thrill; after all, in the past, this sister of hers had always been a cut above her in every aspect.

Now that her own son possessed such exceptional talent, surpassing both Qian Ying and her daughter, she naturally felt a sense of satisfaction.

"That's right."

Qian Shu said proudly, "This is my Fan'er, born with Innate Full Soul Power, who shattered the soul power crystal ball!"

"..."

As her words fell, Qian Ying could not help but show a look of shock, her eyes filled with astonishment as she stared at Lin Fan.
