Xu Fan learned the true nature of his father's murder and, upon seeing the culprit right before his eyes, had resolved to kill Xu Tianhu, making sure he suffered immensely before dying.
If anyone dared to interfere, he wouldn't show mercy, not even if the Emperor himself tried to stop him.
Unexpectedly, someone did step in to stop him. While surprised, Xu Fan paused his movements and extinguished the Soul Fire in his palm.
All eyes turned towards the source of the voice.
They wanted to know – who had the courage to interfere with this avenging deity seeking retribution for his father? Weren't they afraid of attracting Xu Fan's wrath?
The crowd outside parted, making way for two elderly men to come forward.
