Lin Fan remained indifferent, shaking his head as he said, "Sorry, I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy such blessings!"
As he spoke, Lin Fan paused briefly before continuing, "And as far as I know, weren't you and Fang Mingjie of the City Lord Mansion just recently together? What now? With Fang Mingjie killed by me, you want to come back to me? Who do you think I, Lin Fan, am? A collector of discarded goods?"
"You're such a fickle woman, quickly changing your affections from one man to another, what use do I have for you?" Lin Fan's tone grew increasingly stern and his voice colder as he spoke, his eyes fixed tightly on Liu Zhirou as if trying to see right through her.
"Someone bring paper and pen!"
Lin Fan suddenly commanded with a forceful shout.
Only then did Liu Zhirou come back to her senses, asking uneasily, "What are you going to do?"
"I'm writing a divorce letter, divorcing you," said Lin Fan.
"What?"
Liu Zhirou was taken aback, then furious, she demanded, "Lin Fan, don't go too far."
"Too far?"
Lin Fan scoffed with a cold laugh, "When you humiliated me in the past, did you ever consider that you were 'going too far'? Now, you speak of going too far only after feeling humiliated yourself, don't you find that laughable?"
By this time, someone from the Lin Family had brought paper and pen. Lin Fan did not hesitate, quickly writing a letter of divorce and handing it to Liu Zhirou, saying blandly, "From this moment on, you, Liu Zhirou, have nothing to do with the Lin Family. Today, I, Lin Fan, hereby formally divorce Liu Zhirou."
Liu Zhirou's complexion turned extremely ugly.
For a woman, being divorced was a lifelong shame.
Liu Zhirou had never dreamed that she would suffer such humiliation.
"Lin Fan, I'll fight you to the end."
As she spoke, Liu Zhirou charged straight towards Lin Fan, a short knife appearing in her hand as she swung her wrist, aiming directly for Lin Fan's throat.
It was clear that Liu Zhirou intended to kill Lin Fan on the spot.
Lin Fan dodged Liu Zhirou's attack with a swift move, a cold killing intent sweeping towards Liu Zhirou as he said icily, "Considering that there was once a marriage contract between us, I will overlook your impudence just now. But remember, I don't want such an incident to happen a second time. If you dare to draw a knife on me again, I will have your corpse leave my Lin Family."
"Bastard!"
Liu Zhirou had lost all reason, readying to charge at Lin Fan once again.
However, she was stopped by an expert from the Liu Family, who said, "Miss, there will be other opportunities."
In the end, Liu Zhirou calmed down, staring at Lin Fan as if wishing to kill him with her glare, she viciously said, "Lin Fan, just you wait. One day, I'll make you regret this."
"Regret?"
Lin Fan laughed, saying nonchalantly, "Well, I'll be looking forward to it. I'm quite curious as to how you will make me regret."
After speaking, Lin Fan paused momentarily then loudly commanded, "Show the guests out!"
The people from the Liu Family did not linger, leaving one after another.
Lin Fan also said, "Oh yes, take all the things your Liu Family brought with you. The Lin Family has no need for them."
None of the Liu Family members said a word, but as they left, their expressions were gloomy. Each of them felt extremely angry, having assumed that they would receive the Liu Family's focused hospitality upon visiting today.
But they had not expected...
To have suffered such an insult at the Lin Family's hands?
Finally, the Liu Family members left completely, and in the guest hall, only the Lin Family's top echelon remained, as well as Lin Fan.
A high-ranking member of the Lin Family stepped forward and said to Lin Zhenxiong, "Family Head, Lin Fan's actions just now were too impulsive. Now, our Lin Family is thoroughly at odds with the Liu Family. Coupled with Lin Fan having previously killed Fang Mingjie from the City Lord Mansion, once the Liu Family and Fang Family join forces, our Lin Family will struggle to make a single move in Heavenly Martial City."
Another high-ranking member nodded and said, "Indeed, our Lin Family will surely fall into an absolute crisis."
The others, though silent, had obviously unfriendly looks in their eyes when they glanced at Lin Fan.
Lin Zhenxiong ignored everyone's comments and looked towards Lin Fan, asking, "Lin Fan, what do you plan to do?"
Lin Fan said indifferently, "Just the Liu Family? They're not to be feared. As for the Fang Family of the City Lord Mansion? If they stay quiet, fine. If not, then we'll just have to replace them."
What?
Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, everyone couldn't help but be startled!
The next moment, their evaluation of Lin Fan could be summarized in two words: arrogant.
He actually intended to replace the Fang Family of the City Lord Mansion?
What is this if not arrogance?
Are we not aware of how strong the foundation of the Fang Family in the City Lord Mansion is?
Although the Lin Family had produced Lin Tianyu, the number one expert in Heavenly Martial City, they had never before thought to supplant the Fang Family. The reason is simple: the Fang Family's foundation is just too strong, a nebulous concept that cannot be compensated for merely by producing a top-level expert.
Now, Lin Tianyu was trapped within Space Fragments on the Outer Realm Battlefield, and Lin Fan, with only Initial Profound Realm cultivation, spoke such arrogant words.
Everyone was at a loss as to how to assess Lin Fan.
Lin Zhenxiong kept his gaze fixed on Lin Fan, asking, "How will you replace the Fang Family?"
Lin Fan replied, "Kill all their experts!"
Arrogance, sheer arrogance...
The upper echelons of the Lin Family wanted to speak, but for a moment, they didn't know what to say.
Because they were completely shocked by Lin Fan's arrogance.
Right then, Lin Fan said, "By the way, Grandfather, I discovered a very serious problem today."
Lin Zhenxiong was startled and asked, "What?"
Lin Fan replied, "I found that our Lin Family's Mountain Protection Array has many weaknesses. Those weaknesses might stop ordinary cultivators, but for slightly stronger ones, they can destroy our Mountain Protection Array with a simple wave of their hand!"
"Therefore, I think we should properly improve the Array!"
Lin Fan spoke very earnestly.
Includng Lin Zhenxiong, all the Lin Family members showed a very helpless expression on their faces after hearing Lin Fan's words.
Lin Zhenxiong said, "How could we not know about the weaknesses in the Array? We also wish to repair the Array, but unfortunately, to fix our Lin Family's Mountain Protection Array is extremely expensive. Our Lin Family cannot afford it. Moreover, Array Masters are so rare, it is not that easy to find one who can repair our Mountain Protection Array."
After hearing Lin Zhenxiong's words, the other high-ranking members remained silent, but their faces all showed a very helpless look.
Clearly, Lin Zhenxiong's words had touched a nerve with them.
