While Lin Fan would have preferred to keep these experts alive since turning living humans into puppets was always better than using corpses, he couldn't do that in this situation.
Who knew how long it would be before the Hunters Organization acted and if they were to ask for these experts from Lin Fan, Lin Fan would find it hard to say no.
They would be hidden dangers for him if they were released, so instead of having that possibility, it was better to kill them all off now.
As for why living beings were better than corpses, living beings still had wills even after being turned into puppets by Brainy, so they could still think for themselves. It was much better than having mindless puppets that Brainy would need to control itself.
But the problem was that it would take too much ti since Brainy couldn't forcefully turn the puppets. Or if it did, it would take a while to corrode the mind of these experts.
In the end, it just ant that Brainy's cultivation was too low.
Even now, Brainy only had a few Fragnted Soul Realm puppets and they were almost all made from corpses.
p
He would have to find so ti to help Brainy increase its cultivation and make the breakthrough into the Fragnted Soul Realm.
Only when Brainy broke through, would Lin Fan be able to start creating a loyal intelligence network under him and get the information that he wanted.
While Lin Fan was waiting, the Xu Family made their way through the entire base, not finding anything that was too valuable. They were all dejected when they ca back, that was until they found a secret room behind the throne.
In the room that was hidden behind the throne, there were several Storage Rings that were placed there.
When they went through these rings, they were shocked to find the amount of resources that were held in them. It was much more than the Xu Family had expected to find, it was even more than what the Xu Family had.
But that didn't make sense since if the One Shadow Organization had this much funds, why was their spy network so lax?
Were they just looking down on the Xu Family or were they just dumb?
Still, since they were finished now, that ant that all their assets now belonged to the Xu Family.
After taking these Storage Rings, the Xu Family group didn't bother dividing them up now because they were certain that the Hunters Organization would send soone to investigate. After all, there was one of their pri candidates that had died here, so it would be strange if they didn't care.
Since that was the most likely case, it was better for them to leave as soon as possible.
But what they didn't know was what kind of storm they had created.
…
In another part of the city, in the Qiao Manor.
The door to the study of the Qiao Family's master was suddenly pushed open as another old man suddenly ca into the room.
Old man Qiao looked up from the docunt that had been in his hands in surprise and he was even more surprised to see who had suddenly co in. However, even if he was surprised, he didn't look like he was about to make that person leave at all. Rather he revealed a faint smile of pleasant surprise as he said, "Old Fu, what are you doing here?"
The old man called Old Fu didn't have the sa smile as old man Qiao as he ca up to the table and sat down without any courtesy, saying with slightly knitted brows, "Did you send your kid after mine?"
Old man Qiao revealed a confused look as he asked, "What do you an?"
Old Fu said with a bit of anger, "Don't try lying to , I already know that kid has a token from you and he still ca after the one I gave my token to. You're telling that you don't have any grudges against ?"
Old man Qiao had to think about it and then he realized what Old Fu ant.
He had already received the report that Lin Fan would be attacking the One Shadow Organization and there was soone backing the One Shadow Organization, that person was the one who had received a token from Old Fu.
But this didn't make sense still because conflict like this was very common in the upper realm. Since they had so conflict, it didn't matter if they fought. Strength was all that mattered in this upper realm, so what Old Fu was doing didn't seem right.
Old man Qiao said, "So what if he attacked your kid? It just ans he's stronger than him? Why are you coming here to complain to ? This is sothing very normal."
There was a vein that popped out on Old Fu's forehead as he said, "Normal? You call sothing like this normal? Your kid killed my kid."
Old man Qiao was imdiately taken aback when he heard this as he repeated, "Killed? What do you an by that?"
Old Fu was also surprised when he heard this as he asked, "You didn't know anything about this?"
Old man Qiao shook his head and said, "I just knew that he had so conflict with your kid's little brother, so I knew that they would fight, but I never expected him to be this ruthless."
Old Fu gave a sigh when he heard this before saying, "Your kid really is sothing. It seems like my kid couldn't even fight back and was killed in a single slash. It really was quite the grueso scene. Your kid didn't even hesitate to kill him."
Old man Qiao revealed a smile when he heard this and he said, "I guess I just have better eyes than you."
Old Fu gave a chuckle before saying, "You're bragging like you're talking about yourself. It was all that kid in the end."
Old man Qiao just smiled without saying a thing.
The way they acted was like they didn't care at all that Yin Qiang had died, but that did make sense as well.
Once a person died, it ant that they no longer had any value to these experts. It also didn't matter to them since these people they gave their token to weren't related to them, they were just people that these experts felt admiration for. Since they were dead, it ant there was no use crying over spilt milk since there were still plenty of other talents out there.
Moreover, a dead talent was the best way to highlight the talent of the one that killed them since it ant that they were stronger than the one who died.
This raised the evaluation of Lin Fan in old man Qiao's mind.
He was very happy with his decision back then.
While old man Qiao was feeling happy, Old Fu suddenly said, "You still have to compensate for this."
Old man Qiao gave a snort and said, "Compensate my ass, your kid just wasn't strong enough, how can you bla that on ? You can just go and find soone else."
Old Fu revealed a smile as he said, "Oh I did."
Old man Qiao was confused as he asked, "Who?"
Old Fu said with a bit of slyness in his smile, "Your kid, give him to ."
Old man Qiao said, "Ha? What do you an?"
Old Fu said, "Exactly what I said. I've heard that your kid is quite handso and with how strong he is, I'm sure my Ling Ling will like him."
Old man Qiao imdiately jumped out of his seat and said, "You're coming here and trying to steal my future grandson in law?!"
Old Fu said, "You can find soone else, you know how hard I've been trying to find one for my Ling Ling. Just give him to this ti, I'll pay you back next ti."
Old man Qiao gave a snort and said, "Dream on, you already know how hard it is for to find soone good for my Fei Fei and I've finally done it. I'm not going to let you steal him from this ti."
Old Fu said, "How stingy. How about this, do you rember that Ice Soul that you liked so much last ti? I'll give it to you in exchange for him."
Old man Qiao gave another snort and said, "In your dreams."
Just like this, the two old n continued to bicker like children over Lin Fan.
Lin Fan never would have imagined that by killing Yin Qiang, he would catch the attention of soone else that wanted to marry their granddaughter to him…
Moreover, based on how this Old Fu was able to talk to old man Qiao without any courtesy, it was clear that he should have the sa status as him. This Old Fu was actually another Two Star Hunter that was affiliated with the Hunters Organization, which ant that he was also a Nascent Soul Realm Expert.
These two old n didn't care about any face at all as they argued over whose granddaughter would marry Lin Fan.
It was too bad that they didn't even consider how Lin Fan felt.
Moreover, if Angela were to learn of this…
In short, this was a very bad situation for Lin Fan overall.
Just like this, these two old n argued all night over whose granddaughter Lin Fan would marry.
