Chapter 772: Xiao Ming, you’re really something now!

This sigh was like a thunderclap, reverberating in the hearts of everyone present.

Qin Yue’er gazed into the distance, trying to locate the mysterious figure.

Among those present were experts at the peak of the Grand Heaven Realm, even some who had condensed more than ten chains of laws, yet despite their strength, no one could detect the other’s location.

Since when had the Xuanhuang World possessed such an expert?

“Who is it? Please show yourself.”

Wang Xiao Liu stared into the void and bowed respectfully.

He was quite confident about his child’s safety. Although Xiaoming was under the other’s control, he knew that the heavenly Dao of Xuanhuang had always protected their Wang family.

When life was in danger, the heavenly Dao would manifest to protect the descendants of the Wang family.

Many honored guests exchanged puzzled glances. They had only heard the sigh but had not sensed the other’s presence.

This was simply inconceivable to them.

“Master Liu, you can’t sense him either?”

A guest respectfully asked an old man beside him.

The old man’s cultivation was the highest here, having refined twelve chains of laws, rivaling the supreme elders of great sects.

But now even Master Liu was frowning, which shocked everyone.

At this moment, Lin Fan observed the scene, feeling somewhat helpless. This Wang Xiaoming was unbelievable—he learned nothing good, only emulating the spoiled brats.

If it weren’t for him covering for Xiaoming, the boy might have been hacked to death long ago.

“Xiao Liu…”

Suddenly, a voice came from the void again.

This time, however, it shocked everyone.

“Xiao Liu?”

This was the name of the Wang family head! But since the Wang family rose to power, no one had dared to use this name anymore, as it sounded too vulgar.

Wang Xiao Liu’s expression changed, showing confusion, as if recalling something.

Buzz!

The void trembled.

Lin Fan was ready to reveal himself; he would take responsibility.

As Lin Fan’s true form emerged from the void,

The Wang family’s honored guests quickly surrounded him.

Qin Yue’er gazed at this towering figure before her. Although the man said nothing, his long hair flowing without wind deeply captivated her.

“He saved me, but who is he?” Qin Yue’er wondered, involuntarily losing herself in thoughts.

Now Lin Fan had reached the ninth stage of Divine Heaven, merging the Eight Desolations into one realm, his aura already transcendent.

Standing there, he became the center of the world.

“Who are you? Why do you dare to act recklessly at the Wang family?” The honored guests were highly alert, knowing this young man was no ordinary person.

“Step aside.”

At this moment, Wang Xiao Liu pushed through the crowd, his expression excited as he looked at the figure before him. This familiar face was one he would never forget his entire life.

But now seeing it again, it felt so unreal to him.

After the Wang family’s rise, Wang Xiao Liu had discreetly investigated.

Eventually, he learned everything he wanted to know.

He had thought they would never meet again, yet now the person stood before him, so real.

“Head of the Wang family, be careful,” Master Liu warned cautiously.

Master Liu was deeply grateful to the Wang family head, for when he was pursued and fled here, the Wang family had taken him in as an honored guest.

Moreover, the Wang family had provided him with abundant resources for cultivation, a favor for which Master Liu was immensely grateful.

Wang Xiao Liu waved his hand, “It’s okay. If he wanted to kill me, no one in the world could stop him.”

As soon as Wang Xiao Liu spoke, everyone was shocked again, even more curious about this young man.

Who exactly was he, to make the Wang family head say such words? But as far as they knew, there was no such person in the Xuanhuang World.

“Big Brother…”

Wang Xiao Liu’s eyes reddened slightly, his voice hoarse.

“What?”

Suddenly, everyone seemed to have misheard.

Did the Wang family head just call this young man… Big Brother?

At this moment, everyone turned their gazes toward Lin Fan, which seemed utterly incredible to them.

Qin Yue’er’s heart sank suddenly. She hadn’t expected this young man to know the Wang family. This… this…

“Uncle Lin?”

Wang Xiaoming, hanging in midair, suddenly snapped back to his senses and looked at the young man with confusion.

Suddenly, memories surged into his mind.

Scene after scene flooded into Wang Xiaoming’s consciousness.

At this moment, Wang Xiaoming finally remembered, “Uncle Lin, it’s me, Xiaoming! I was bullied by this stinky woman. You must stand up for me!”

Although Wang Xiaoming had only met Uncle Lin once, there was one thing he would never forget—

That Uncle Lin had once patted his head when he was little.

“It’s only because you’re Xiaoming that you have the chance to speak. Otherwise, you’d already be a corpse,” Lin Fan said sternly.

He hadn’t expected that in just a few years, the once innocent Xiaoming had become a spoiled brat.

To Lin Fan, this was truly exasperating.

“Uncle Lin, please don’t scare me. Xiaoming knows he was wrong,” Wang Xiaoming cried out, especially frightened by Lin Fan’s serious gaze, his little heart pounding rapidly.

Looking at the situation before him, Lin Fan couldn’t help but smile.

As for being a spoiled brat, Lin Fan didn’t really care.

After all, he himself wasn’t a good person either. What was so bad about being a spoiled brat?

Smiling, Lin Fan stepped forward and patted Wang Xiaoming’s head, just as he used to when Xiaoming was little. This feeling was so familiar to Wang Xiaoming.

“Ding! Detected the Ultimate Antagonist of the Chosen One.”

Lin Fan had originally wanted to say something.

But at this moment, he instantly closed his mouth.

His calm heart now suddenly beat rapidly.

What was this system notification?

“The Ultimate Antagonist of the Chosen One: Between heaven and earth, all beings possess spirit, inheriting the power of heaven and earth, born with great fortune—these are the Chosen Ones. There are countless Chosen Ones, but each of them has one common enemy throughout their lives. This enemy has a mocking face, constantly pushing the Chosen Ones to strive harder and improve their strength. This is the Ultimate Antagonist of the Chosen One.”

“What the heck!”

Lin Fan was stunned. He had truly never encountered such a constitution before.

But that wasn’t right either—how could Wang Xiaoming possibly have this constitution?

Lin Fan carefully examined Wang Xiaoming, and at this moment, Wang Xiaoming’s hair stood on end, sensing something ominous.

“Right, it must be because I gave Wang Xiaoming too much power. As the saying goes, excess leads to the opposite effect. Originally, with my protection, Wang Xiaoming was destined to be the protagonist. But I gave him too much power, creating a backlash, turning him into the lifelong enemy of countless Chosen Ones.”

And for all the Chosen Ones, Wang Xiaoming was like a whip, constantly lashing them, urging the Chosen Ones to strive and cultivate until they reached the peak!

To confirm his suspicions, Lin Fan directly turned his gaze toward Qin Yue’er.

This observation further confirmed his thoughts.

Qin Yue’er had top-notch talent, with a dormant divine consciousness within her.

And her fearless personality fit the description perfectly.

At this moment, Lin Fan was speechless. He hadn’t expected things to turn out this way.

But in an instant, Lin Fan’s thoughts raced, formulating a long-term plan.

“Xiaoming, it’s all Uncle’s fault. But since things have come to this, you’ll just have to endure it,” Lin Fan sighed inwardly.

For the greater plan, what was a little pain?
