But still the old man said with a smile, "I'm ready whenever you're ready."
He would come to regret those words very soon.
Angela just gave a snort and gathered her wind laws in her palm.
When the old man saw this, he was only mildly surprised at first, but then his face was soon filled with shock.
The degree of the law of wind in her hands, it had already surpassed the threshold of the Fragmented Soul Realm.
This old man had been confident since he was one of the strongest experts of the Blue Star Planet, but the limit of the Blue Star Planet was still in the Fragmented Soul Realm.
Only now did he understand why Mu Bo Hai's report had been so serious, this was clearly something that involved powers that were above them.
The old man tried saying, "Alright, you win…" But before he could even finish, Angela had already jumped out.
The old man tried using his lightning laws to dodge just like he had done with Lin Fan, but before he could finish channeling them, Angela's fist had already hit his eye.
Angela didn't stop with just a single punch, she released a second punch at his other eye, causing it to swell up as much as the first eye. Only then did she take the ball from his hand with a proud smile.
The old man could see that proud smile through his swollen eyes and he could only reveal a helpless smile at this. He had underestimated her and he had paid the price for it, but he couldn't blame anyone but himself for not believing the reports.
The old man stood up and spread his hands, "Alright, it's your win."
Lin Fan had recovered enough energy to stand up, so he came over and asked, "Then are you going to tell us what you know about the Lin Family now?"
The old man turned to Lin Fan and the moment he did, Lin Fan couldn't hold back his laughter. The old man really looked like a panda with his two swollen eyes.
The old man saw this and ignored it as he said while spreading his hands with a shrug, "I was going to tell you anyway, but now it seems like I've bitten off more than I can chew. Anyway, there hasn't been any movement from the Lin Family yet. It doesn't seem like they'll be moving against you for what you did, but Lin Yu's side branch does seem like they are making some moves."
Lin Fan heard this and fell into deep thought.
This didn't seem right, one of the main descendants of the Lin Family had been beaten like this, it didn't make sense for them not to make any moves.
Could it be that they were going the underhanded method like the Feng Family? Would they move against his family?
No, that wasn't right either since if that was the case, Lin Yu would have already done it. Lin Ao in the eyes of the Lin Family was trash, so why would he hesitate to move against Lin Ao?
None of this made any sense to Lin Fan, but he didn't waste more time thinking about this.
He had already left enough protection for his family back in Snow Wind City, namely he had Momonga protect them with his maids.
Both of those maids were already in the Legendary Realm, but as for which realm specifically, Lin Fan had no idea. The only thing he was certain about was that they surpassed the limits of this Blue Star Planet.
As long as the Lin Family didn't have a connection to the upper realm and could bring down stronger experts, his family would be safe.
Then Lin Fan turned to the old man and asked with narrowed eyes, "So, are you gonna tell us who you are and why you're telling us this?"
The old man revealed a smile, "Beat me and you'll find out."
Lin Fan turned to Angela and she gave a nod, but the old man had also seen this and he quickly said, "I meant you, not her! I'm never getting involved with this little girl again, I want to live for a few more years!"
Lin Fan couldn't help smiling at this, but that smile quickly disappeared as he said, "Then can you tell me one thing? Are you my enemy or my friend?"
The old man gave a shrug, "I've already told you before, I'm not your enemy and I want to be your friend, but that all depends on you. The one thing I can tell you is that I'm friends with Mu Bo Hai."
Mu Bo Hai, he was the old man who kept sticking around Lin Fan, but he did show his sincerity with the help he provided to Lin Fan when it came to communicating with the Union Government.
As his mind turned, Lin Fan quickly came up with a guess, but he wasn't certain. The only thing he was certain of was that this entire encounter was connected to the Union Government.
While Lin Fan was in thought, the old man carefully looked him over. After a bit of time passed, the old man suddenly asked, "Owner Lin, do you like this world?"
Lin Fan was confused why this old man suddenly asked this, but he answered, "I like this world quite a bit, why?"
The old man could hear the sincerity in Lin Fan's voice, so he gave a nod and said, "Good, it's all good if you like this world."
Lin Fan was even more confused, but before he had a chance to say anything, the old man suddenly said, "Alright, now that I've accomplished what I came here for, I need to get going."
Before either Lin Fan or Angela could react, the old man quickly walked out of the room, but he didn't forget to leave a few words, "Owner Lin, I hope you remember that this world is your home and your home will always be a special place."
The two of them just watched this old man leave like that. He had left just like he had appeared, in the same mysterious way.
…
The old man walked a distance and finally when he turned the corner, there were several people in military uniforms that came over.
"General, we finally found you!" One of the officers with the most badges on his chest came up and gave a salute before then saying, "What happened to your eyes, sir?"
The old man just nodded and ignored this question, "Un, it doesn't matter."
That officer reacted quickly and forced himself to say in a normal voice, "General, we've prepared everything for engaging special war factor three, all we are waiting for is your order."
The old man stopped for a second and turned back in the direction of the training room before saying, "Forget it, cancel the mission."
The officer was shocked, "Cancel the mission? But general, what about our orders?"
The old man just shook his head, "It's fine, it's fine, I've already talked with special war factor three and I've confirmed that he is of no threat. There is no need for this mission any longer."
The officer still wouldn't give up, "Sir, this was an order that came directly from the Union President. If we don't fulfill this mission, it…"
The old man suddenly cut him off with a stern voice, "I've already given my order!"
Only then did the officer back down with a salute, "Yes sir!"
The officer gave a hand signal to the other men in military uniforms and they quickly headed off to cancel the mission.
The old man then said, "Send a message to the president for me. Tell him that special war factor three is mainly harmless, but he is protective of the things he cares about. He also considers himself a member of this world, so that will play in our favour."
Once he was done speaking, there was a sudden flash of white before the old man disappeared from this airship.
The officer stared at where he had been standing in shock before suddenly knitting his brows in thought. But after he was done thinking, he still went to obey the old man's orders.
This old man wasn't just a normal old man, he was the Grand General of the Union Government's forces, one of the strongest three experts on the Blue Star Planet.
The prestige that he commanded wasn't normal.
