But to his surprise, Lin Fan didn't blame him at all for this matter.

Lin Fan could tell from his voice that he was genuinely surprised by this news and he was sincere with his apology.

This had also come as a surprise to him and he knew that there must have been something that had suddenly changed with the Liao Family for this to happen. This was not something anyone could have expected, so naturally it was an honest mistake on Xu Lin's part.

No, it couldn't even be considered a mistake since there was nothing he could have done about this.

Xu Lin was after all only the disciple of one of the elders in the True Spirit Sect, his status wasn't high enough to do anything about this.

So Lin Fan wouldn't dwell on this matter, there were other things that required his attention for now.

Lin Fan just calmly said, "It's fine, it's not as if you could have predicted this. Tell me everything that has happened with the Yue Family and the Liao Family over the past few days. I want to see if anything has changed with their situation."

Xu Lin was clearly surprised by Lin Fan's words as he didn't say anything right away. He knew how cold and merciless Lin Fan was after seeing what he had done for the Xu Family, so he thought that he would certainly be punished.

But it seemed like he had been wrong about Lin Fan.

This just made him more certain about his decision to follow Lin Fan.

Xu Lin quickly described everything that he had seen over the past few weeks to Lin Fan, but all that did was make Lin Fan even more confused.

Both his mother and little sister had been left alone in the Yue Manor and the Liao Family had never made any contact with the Yue Family, so why would they suddenly decide to hold this wedding?

There were no signs that they had talked to each other to discuss terms. In fact, Liao Ping had even locked himself away during this time, not making an appearance when the wedding announcement was made.

None of this seemed to make any sense…

It was almost as if there was some hidden force behind the scenes that was manipulating everything.

But that explanation made even less sense.

Since he couldn't get anything useful from Xu Lin, he said, "Watch over the Yue and Liao Families for me. There should be something that has changed with those two families and I want to know what it is. As long as we can understand what has changed, it'll be much easier to deal with what comes in the future."

Xu Lin hesitated a bit before saying, "Young master, what about…"

Before he could finish, Lin Fan said, "I'll send you all the funds you need, just get it done. "

Xu Lin no longer hesitated as he said, "Yes young master."

Since Lin Fan was offering his full support, there was nothing that Xu Lin needed to worry about.

He knew that Lin Fan's power was far greater than what it seemed on the surface based on the letters that he had been receiving from the Xu Family. Since he was going to give him everything he needed, all Xu Lin needed to do was follow his order.

Before he hung up, Lin Fan also remembered something and added, "Help me keep an eye on the Shi Family as well."

Xu Lin was confused why Lin Fan suddenly mentioned the Shi Family, but he agreed to this before hanging up.

Lin Fan couldn't help thinking about one thing that Xu Lin had mentioned in his report.

The Shi Family had met with the Yue Family before this wedding was announced…Could it be that this was related?

He wasn't certain, but there was a faint bad premonition that he felt from this information.

After all of this was taken care of, all Lin Fan had left to do was tell Lin Ao about this.

This was the thing that he had been dreading the most since he knew how hard it would be to control Lin Ao once he heard this news. There was no doubt that he would rush right to the True Spirit Sect once he learned of this.

But Lin Fan couldn't have him do that since that would alert the Liao Family of their presence on the Galactic Humanity Alliance.

Right now, the Liao Family didn't know that he had already come up since there were countless people in this Galactic Humanity Alliance. Lin Fan had only done his business in Harmony City and the area around it, which wasn't a place that the Liao Family didn't have any coverage in since they didn't have any business in.

Even if they heard the name Lin Fan, the group that had gone to the Blue Star Planet had never even bothered learning his name, so they didn't connect it to him.

But if Lin Ao were to charge into the True Spirit Sect alone, it would without a doubt create a large incident. It would be impossible to hide it after something like this happened.

Then they would lose the element of surprise which would be their greatest advantage.

So Lin Fan had to make sure that Lin Ao didn't go anywhere after he learned this.

To even make sure that he could stop Lin Ao, Lin Fan even had Brainy release some puppets to form a barrier around the residence before he went in.

Lin Ao had been cultivating when Lin Fan arrived. Lin Fan didn't plan on disturbing him since he wanted to delay talking to him about this, but Lin Ao stopped cultivating as soon as he sensed Lin Fan's arrival.

When he came out, he narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan before saying, "Something happened, didn't it?"

He didn't even wait for Lin Fan to respond as he immediately dashed at the door, but Lin Fan had already expected this as soon as he saw him narrow his eyes. He quickly moved in front of Lin Ao and raised his hand to form a barrier that pushed him back.

p Seeing that Lin Fan wouldn't let him leave, Lin Ao drew his sword and prepared to fight.

Lin Fan saw this and gave a sigh as he also pulled out his sword, but he still said, "If you calm down, I'll tell you everything first."

Lin Ao glared at Lin Fan and after a moment of hesitation, he did put his sword down in the end.

If it had been anyone else who was standing in front of him, he would have already cut them down with his personality. However, the one in front of him was his son and someone who wasn't weaker than he was, so he was unwilling to do this.

Seeing that Lin Ao had calmed down, Lin Fan really was relieved.

He was worried that he wouldn't be able to convince Lin Ao and would have to fight him, but now it seemed like it would end peacefully. It wasn't that he was afraid of fighting Lin Ao, but rather he wouldn't be able to hold back if he did.

If the two of them fought for real, it was certain that one or both of them would have been injured.

After sitting down, Lin Fan told Lin Ao everything that had happened.

Lin Ao had his brows knitted the entire time and even when he heard everything, he still sat there with knitted brows, not saying a thing.

Lin Fan took this opportunity to say, "I'm already devising a plan to take care of this matter, so all you have to do is get stronger and wait for the right moment. If you charge in by yourself right now, you won't be able to do anything."

Lin Ao didn't deny Lin Fan's words.

He had already experienced how strong the Yue Family and the Liao Family were the last time that he had been here.

If it wasn't for the Lin Family Ancestor's help last time, he might not have been able to get away at all.

But the fact that they were forcing his daughter to marry the man who ruined his life last time ate away at him deep down.

The one comfort was that Lin Fan was here.

If he didn't have Lin Fan at his side, he would have disregarded everything to charge into the True Spirit Sect. If he couldn't save them, he would want to at least die with them as a family.

So after thinking about this, Lin Ao said in a low voice, "How much confidence do you have in your plan?"

Lin Fan said in a serious voice, "I'm 100% certain that we'll be able to rescue them as long as we follow my plan. This is something that I've been preparing for a long time now."

Lin Ao looked at the serious look on his face and he couldn't help feeling a bit of pride.

When he had looked at his son before, while he still loved him, he had felt disappointed because Lin Fan had never shown any drive and determination. He had always lived his life in a half hearted manner, never taking anything seriously.

But that also showed how kind of a person he was since the only time that he did take things seriously was when he did things for others.

Still, since he was his son, he had let him live the way he wanted. He had even given him the store so he would be able to make a living.

But now, the son standing in front of him was completely different.

He was a man who he could depend on, a son that he was truly proud of.

Lin Ao gave a nod and said, "Alright, we'll follow your plan."
