"So, you think everything is my mom's fault alone?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan nearly exploded with rage, veins bulging on his forehead.
He had seen shaless people like Zhang ili before.
But who could have thought that the old lunatic in front of him was the truly shaless one!
He personally ruined the lives of his disciples and their families, yet showed no remorse!
"Otherwise, who asked her to be so stupid? I clearly told her that the Ying family is a tumor, an important source of inco for Xuanwu Mountain."
The old man remained expressionless, still acting like he's disappointed, cursing nonstop.
"Moreover, the Ying family has only one heir in this generation. If we kill Ying Wenyuan, who is plagued by illness, the family line will end, and they'll be gravely weakened!"
"But unfortunately, she refused to listen, even using herself as dicine, with emotion as the catalyst, not only curing Ying Wenyuan's stubborn illness but his heartache as well!"
"Later, people from Xuanwu Mountain ca for her, and then she was abandoned by the Ying family, pushed to take the fall—serves her right!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan's expression changed dramatically, his body trembling uncontrollably.
So, there was this hidden truth behind the events of those years?
His mother wasn't just Ying Wenyuan's savior, but she also sacrificed herself for him!
This isn't just betrayal; it's a grave deception!
"...Old bastard, are you saying you did nothing wrong?"
After a long while, Lin Fan took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress his anger.
He said coldly, asking in return.
"You knew my mom had a kind heart, yet you forced her into assassination?"
"If you hadn't pressured her to do what she didn't want, how would she have fallen for Ying Wenyuan, that bastard?"
As he spoke, Lin Fan grew angrier, his eyes bloodshot.
"You're throwing everything on my mom, yet your conscience doesn't hurt at all!"
"Hmph, won are hard to keep, especially when they're foolish and naive, insisting on loving that loser?"
Lin Aochang's old face flushed a mix of blue and red, snorting weakly.
"Besides, she's soone I brought up, so she has to do what I command!"
"As the Earth Tower Master, how can I train soone weak-hearted lest the other tower masters at Vermilion Bird Tower ridicule ?"
"...Aren't you revered by the world as the dical Sage? Why resort to leading a notorious assassin organization?"
Lin Fan again tried to suppress his fury, gritting his teeth as he asked.
This was also one of his deepest confusions.
With the ability to heal the world, why did his mother beco the Human Tower Master?
Though after hearing from the old man that his mother never hard anyone, Lin Fan felt slightly relieved.
Otherwise, the unparalleled image of his mother in his heart would disintegrate, driving him mad!
"What's so special about being the dical Sage? Besides, everyone I killed deserved it, a fate worse than death."
The old man exhaled deeply, his gaze darkening.
He gestured for Lin Fan to sit down and then squinted his eyes before speaking.
"Since you've learned about the Vermilion Bird Tower, do you know what it used to be?"
"After the previous dynasty fell, our Heavenly dicine Sect went from Imperial Court to a civil organization... Many Jianghu people treated us with great respect, hoping we could save them at the brink of life and death."
"But what good is saving countless people? In the end, it's just you kill , I kill you?"
"So heartless people even feared we'd heal their enemies, turning their blades against our Heavenly dicine Sect!"
"Thus, the principle of our lineage gradually shifted from saving lives to killing to stop killing... Eventually, everything changed, utterly transforming into an assassin organization."
The old man sighed deeply, shaking his head.
"Of course, there were divisions within the building, splitting into Heaven and Earth and A, B, C, D, forming twelve towers, each taking their own path."
"I was the Earth Tower Master while overseeing the Human Tower, simultaneously supporting your mom in elevating... But who knew she would disappoint so greatly!"
"...And what's up with the Hai City Yuan Family? When did they beco the Sect Manager for the Human Tower, and why is my mom entirely unaware?"
Lin Fan was silent for a mont, reluctantly accepting the old man's explanation.
He then coldly stared at the man, asking another pressing question.
"Hai City... You an Xia Country's Southwest dicine City? Hmm, I do have so recollection; when your mother was young, I took her across the country, and we happen to stop there."
"And then we t a young man nad Yuan selling dicinal herbs, seed honest and upright, kind-hearted, so I felt empathetic and helped him."
"His na was sothing... Yuan Guang... Anyway, it's sowing a good relationship without expecting future returns."
The old man shook his head, frowning as he asked.
"So, your mom fled to Hai City with you? Then why didn't she find that Yuan fellow? If she did, she wouldn't be missing that last ingredient, Fire Fungus, for your Seven-Core Deadly Lotus!"
"Do you think my mom, like you, expects repaynt for favors given?"
Lin Fan said angrily, his face darkened.
"Also, be honest with , what's the value of this supposed world's most deadly toxin!"
"Hey, you little brat, you really have no eye for gold inlaid with jade! And you dare to call yourself Lin Aochang's disciple!"
The old man was so angry his face turned, rolling his eyes relentlessly.
"Xuanwu Mountain, Heavenly dicine Sect, along with the Holy Poison Sect controlling this area... All hidden sects have been conducting research privately, hoping to progress further with martial arts intertwined with Tao."
