Cultivation Pet Shop

"Urgent? What do you mean by urgent?" Lin Fan asked in a confused voice.

"Well the call came this morning and it sounded like something had happened. You can listen to it yourself if you want." Momonga went over to the store's phone.

The voicemail inbox was opened and he played the message, "Lin Fan, come home if you can. There's something we need to talk to you about."

Lin Fan could tell by this voice that it was his father, but there seemed to be something strange with his tone. It was like he was unwilling to make this call, it almost seemed like he wanted Lin Fan to do the opposite of what he said.

Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows and thinking about what might have happened, but he really couldn't think of anything.

Still, since they called him, it must mean that something had happened since normally his family never interfered with the store.

Lin Fan didn't risk it and immediately went home.

Angela could tell that something was wrong, so she quickly followed him.

As for Momonga, he stayed since even if something happened, it usually was his job to watch the store which he honestly didn't mind. There were plenty of new things to play with and all kinds of new food here, it was quite comfy.

…

When Lin Fan arrived at his house, he found that the front door was unlocked and ajar.

Judging by the mark left on it, it was clear that someone had broken in.

Lin Fan immediately released his life energy and charged forward, but when he came in, he found that there was no one around. The only things that he saw were broken parts of the furniture lying all over the ground and a few shattered items like plates or vases.

Whoever had broken in clearly didn't have kind intentions and they definitely weren't kind to the residents living here.

Lin Fan ran upstairs, but he found that most of the rooms upstairs had been left untouched.

Running back downstairs and heading into the kitchen, Lin Fan found that there was where most of the struggle had been.

The breakfast that was on the table there was still warm, but there had been all kinds of plates and cutlery that had been thrown to the ground. On the table, there was a note that was pinned there with a needle.

Lin Fan came up to the note and removed the needle, bringing it up to look over the contents.

The contents of the letter was simple, but it created a rage that completely consumed him.

The letter read, "Your family is waiting for you." At the bottom, it was signed with the word "Feng".

Lin Fan never expected that a respected royal family would act in such a manner, they had actually kidnapped his family to force him to come to them!

Lin Fan wanted to tear the note to pieces, he wanted to shatter the table, he wanted to do anything, but he forced himself to stay calm.

Angela who had been following him also saw the letter and after thinking about it, she remembered that it was the family that had been harassing Lin Fan the entire time.

She didn't know why, but her hands suddenly clenched in anger as well. It might have been because she didn't want to see Lin Fan in pain like this or maybe it was because of how his mother had treated her…

Still, there was a flame of rage that was burning inside of her when she read this note.

Lin Fan calmly thought it through before raising his hand to make a few calls.

Since the Feng Family wanted a war, he would give them one.

A dragon had a reverse scale that couldn't be touched. No one was allowed to touch it.

…

Mu Bo Hai had just sent off the Lord Envoy when he suddenly received a call.

When he picked up, he was shocked to hear that it was from Lin Fan. After all, they had just seen each other.

Before he could even ask Lin Fan why he was calling, Lin Fan jumped right into the topic.

"The Feng Family is holding my family hostage. How much trouble would I cause if I were to exterminate them?"

Mu Bo Hai couldn't believe what he was hearing, "Wait, wait, what do you mean by the Feng Family has kidnapped your family? Are you sure about this?"

Lin Fan's voice turned even colder, "How could I not be sure if they left a note provoking me?"

Mu Bo Hai really didn't know how to process this, but he did react fast as he said with a sigh, "Alright, I understand you're angry, but it'll be a big deal if you eliminate an entire Platinum Family."

Lin Fan replied in that ice cold voice, "Then what do you want me to do?"

Mu Bo Hai quickly said, "I know you're angry right now, I am too, I can't believe that they would stoop so low. However, it is in times like this that we have to keep our calm. A Platinum Realm family is not something that can be randomly created, each one is built up over time over hundreds of years. If you were to destroy one, it would destabilize the situation in Snow Wind City and it might even cause us to lose this stronghold. Moreover, you already know about the strange situation with the planar crack, we can't afford to lose a guardian right now."

Lin Fan responded, "Then you're saying the Union Government would choose them over me?"

Mu Bo Hai couldn't help cursing in his mind.

Choose them over you? Do you know how many Legendary Realm Experts felt the aura from that girl in your shop?

The Union Government had already told Mu Bo Hai that they would be accepting Lin Fan's application to become a noble. When they also heard that Lin Fan was already in the Platinum Realm, they even hinted at the possibility of increasing his title to a royal.

To choose the Feng Family over this den of unknown experts was suicidal, there would be no way that they would do that.

However, if possible, they would try to find a way to ensure that everyone could remain at peace.

Mu Bo Hai quickly said, "Of course not, but the Union Government needs to consider the safety of the public as well. Like I said, if we suddenly lose a Platinum Family, it would mean losing a strong fighting force for Snow Wind City and we just lost that noble family recently from them being traitors. Who knows what other traitors there might be in Snow Wind City? Please, I'm asking you to just stay calm for now and let us negotiate this matter. I promise you that I will give you an answer as soon as possible."

But his pleas fell onto deaf ears. Lin Fan just said, "It's good to hear that the consequences aren't as serious as I thought. While I do worry about the people of Snow Wind City, this problem can be easily solved. I will take over for the Feng Family in protecting the people, this matter will not end with just negotiations. I will tell you that one thing is certain, the Feng Family will disappear from Snow Wind City today. It doesn't matter what the Union Government wants, they have crossed my bottom line. That is all I have to say."

Mu Bo Hai wanted to try to change his mind again, but before he could even say anything, Lin Fan had already hung up.

"God damn it!"

Mu Bo Hai couldn't help cursing out loud.

Just what was that Feng Family thinking! They just had to push Lin Fan over the line like this!

If Lin Fan were to bring his master into this, could the Union Government even handle the consequences?

No, Lin Fan wouldn't bring his master into this since his master was still in hiding. However, just bringing Angela alone into this was already bad enough…

Mu Bo Hai knew that he didn't have any time to waste, he had to try to settle this as soon as possible.

So with a headache pounding in his head, he quickly began making calls while rushing to the Union Government branch.

One thing was certain, today would be a day of change for Snow Wind City.

…

After Lin Fan hung up, he didn't wait any longer.

Mu Bo Hai was the last person he called and now it was time to go to war.

Today, there would be a storm of blood.
