When they came out of the planar crack, they arrived to find themselves surrounded by experts with their weapons raised.

These weren't just the experts from the Monster Trainer Union that had been guarding this planar crack a week ago, there were now various different experts in different uniforms all around the planar crack.

​​

They didn't even let their guard down when they saw that it was the armoured vehicles that they had sent in a week ago. All of them still pointed their weapons at the armoured vehicles as if they were prepared to attack at any moment.

Only when the young geniuses and Lin Fan came out of the car was there a familiar voice that sounded.

"Move, move, clear the way for me."

Lin Fan and the others turned to see Zhang Liang coming over with a large group behind him.

Lin Fan didn't recognize the people in the group, but the young geniuses definitely did. These were their parents and the elders of their family.

They were surprised why their parents and elders had shown up, but they didn't have time to deal with this.

Zhang Liang stopped in front of Lin Fan and asked, "Owner Lin, it's good to see you, but we need to move away from this planar crack right away."

Lin Fan wanted to question why there was a need for this rush, but Zhang Liang didn't give him that chance. Zhang Liang and the others quickly led their group away where they were given physical exams before gathering them all in a single room.

When Lin Fan arrived in the room and he looked around, he found that there were several adults with dark looks looking at him, but he didn't feel any pressure from them at all.

Zhang Liang was sitting at the center of the table waiting for them and once Lin Fan and the rest of the young geniuses were gathered, he started the meeting, "Owner Lin, can you tell us what happened in there?"

Lin Fan nodded and he began his story, of course he made sure to leave a few things out since he wanted to give them a surprise.

The rest of the young geniuses chimed in from time to time to help support Lin Fan's story, but none of them said a single thing about the parts that he missed. They knew that he had his own idea, so they didn't expose him.

The seeds that Lin Fan had sown had played their effects, so most of them either respected or feared Lin Fan enough not to say a thing.

It was worth noting that Yan Huo had already been freed from his shackles and was also sitting in this room. However, he was doing his best to avoid Lin Fan and hide from him as best as he could. Naturally, that meant that he didn't say a single thing to poke a hole in Lin Fan's story.

Once Lin Fan's story was over, of course there were people who had doubts since there were clear holes in this story.

There was someone who was dressed in a dark cloak and looked like a meek librarian, but when he spoke, there was a power in his voice that couldn't be ignored. That person said, "Then brat Lin, can you tell me what happened to Yin Zi, my daughter?"

Lin Fan had deliberately left this part out since he wanted to bait the Yin Family into trying to start conflict with him. After all, the best way to take care of a family was to bait them to fall into his trap.

Lin Fan turned to look at Family Head Yin with a smile and said, "I wonder, what did happen to Yin Zi?"

Family Head Yin immediately flew into a rage when he heard this and he shouted, "You, you dare play games with me? I think that you're nothing more than a traitor to humanity and all of you are colluding with the Beast Clan right now!"

Lin Fan said with the same smile, "Are we the traitor or are you the traitor?"

There was a flash of surprise that appeared in Family Head Yin's eyes that everyone except for Lin Fan and Angela missed. He quickly gave a snort as he said, "You're trying to pin the blame on me? Our Yin Family has served the Union Government faithfully for hundreds of years, what does a kid like you know?"

Lin Fan raised his hand and there was a dagger that appeared in it as he said, "Then do you care to explain this?"

This dagger was the shadow law dagger that Yin Zi had. Since it had absorbed her vitality, there was her aura that was currently coming from the dagger.

Zhang Liang sensed this aura and he knit his brows as he looked at Lin Fan, wondering what Lin Fan's plan was here.

Family Head Yin still had the same angry look, but he was laughing on the inside, "You're trying to frame me with this? Don't you know that by taking out this dagger, you are just admitting your guilt?"

Then Family Head Yin turned to everyone else in the room and said, "It's clear that this boy is a traitor to humanity. He wanted the artifact passed down in our Yin Family, an artifact that I personally gave my daughter, so he killed her and took it from her! How can we let someone like this live!"

It was true, taking out this dagger at this point was completely incriminating himself, but Lin Fan wouldn't do such things without a plan.

During the fight in the pyramid, it hadn't been Yin Zi using this dagger, but rather Lord Yin…

Lin Fan released his life energy around the dagger that had been sealing it and there was a powerful beast aura that immediately came from it. If the aura around the dagger before was proof that it belonged to Yin Zi, the aura that came from it now was proof that it belonged to a powerful beast.

Family Head Yin's face turned slightly ugly when he sensed this.

Naturally he knew about the sacrifice function of this dagger and with such a powerful aura coming from this dagger, it was clear that Yin Zi had been forced to use it for a powerful member of the Beast Clan. But the fact that Lin Fan had brought this dagger back even with the aura of the powerful Beast Clan Expert around it, it showed that Lin Fan definitely wasn't normal.

However, how could he back down at a time like this?

Family Head Yin stuck to his guns and vehemently denied everything, "It's clear that you're using some kind of artifact to mimic this aura to fool us, but we won't fall for this, right everyone? You won't be able to make those of us loyal to humanity fall, you traitor!"

But then Lin Fan wasn't the one to say anything, rather it was Yan Huo's father who was a giant of a man.

Family Head Yan said, "All I want to know is, why is my son injured to this extent? What did you do to him?"

It was like Family Head Yin saw a light at the end of the tunnel and he dashed right towards it as he followed up Family Head Yan, "That's right! Look at how injured nephew Yan is, you must have coerced him into silence with force! I bet you're a Beast Clan Expert who is skilled in deception that is disguised as a human!"

If it was possible, Family Head Yin wanted to attack Lin Fan right away, but there were two reasons why he didn't dare to do so. One was that Zhang Liang was in the room and the Monster Trainer Union behind him was definitely not a force that he could offend. After all, this was a force that was directly connected to an upper realm power and Lin Fan had been invited by them to explore this planar crack. Two, it was because he wasn't certain how powerful Lin Fan was. At first he was certain since he was after all a peak Platinum Realm Expert, but then Lin Fan released the powerful Beast Clan aura from that dagger which made him waver on how powerful Lin Fan was.

Lin Fan ignored Family Head Yin and turned right to Family Head Yan and Yan Huo. When Yan Huo felt Lin Fan's gaze fall onto him, he flinched.

Lin Fan then said without any fear, "Family Head Yan, it was your son who was fooled by the traitor and colluded with that traitor to attack us. That was why we had no choice but to defend ourselves. But of course that is understandable since the traitor had been hiding among us for the longest time, so they were quite skilled at what they did. Isn't that right, Yan Huo?"

When Yan Huo heard this, it was like someone had reached their hand out to him to pull him out of the darkness.

He naturally knew the consequences of his actions and knew what would happen after coming back, but now it seemed like there was a chance to escape. After all, being a traitor and being fooled by a traitor were two completely different things.

Yan Huo didn't hesitate at all as he said, "That's right, Brother Lin is absolutely right. Unfortunately I was fooled by the traitor, but Brother Lin was the one to stop me. I am deeply ashamed for what I did, but I hope to make it right by revealing that the traitor wasn't alone, their entire family was working with them."

It didn't stop there, the other young geniuses all began supporting Lin Fan after Yan Huo, causing public opinion to sway to Lin Fan's side once again.

After all, they trusted their blood above the words of other families.

Everyone turned to look at Family Head Yin who clearly knew that he was in a dangerous situation. If he didn't find a way to diffuse this situation, everything that his family had worked for over the past hundred years would go to waste. It was also very likely that their family wouldn't be able to survive after this.

Family Head Yin was about to say a few words to defend himself, but before he could even say a thing, there was a giant sound that rang out in the room.

The Monster Trainer Union's vice president Zhang Liang naturally believed in Lin Fan since they had a deep relationship that had been formed over their cooperation and from his admiration of him. But more importantly, what he hated the most was traitors to humanity.

Zhang Liang had smashed his fist down on the table, creating a web of cracks that spread from the impact that his fist had made, but Zhang Liang didn't care about this at all. He just looked at Family Head Yin with a dark look as he said, "Family Head Yin, do you care to explain this?"
