Fang Hanshan suddenly realized, but he asked Guan Yue: "Do you have a way to make them tell the truth?"
Guan Yue replied: "Senior, please be patient. Let me ask them carefully."
Guan Yue then approached Youth and the short man, having already begun to exert mental control over them during his approach. Now that Guan Yue had reached the Breakthrough Realm as a Disciple, his ability to manipulate minds had significantly strengthened.
So when Guan Yue pointed at Youth and asked him to speak first, he immediately began to talk without hesitation, his expression remaining unchanged and his mind free of any concerns:
"Fang Hanshan could break through to the Profound Heaven Realm at any moment, and if he does, the elders will surely make him the head of the family. To deal with him, my father tried various methods but failed one after another, so in the end, he came up with the idea of sending Direction East and Fang West to the Wang family to collect debts.
He initially wanted to tell the Wang family to eliminate these two siblings, but then thought it would be better to let them bear the blame and escape. This way, we could also take down Fang Hanshan, throw him into prison, and everything would go smoothly. Thus, he sent us five to deal with Direction East and his sister. Who would have thought that Direction East and Fang West were so fierce in combat that they killed three of us? Only I and Cousin survived. Although we captured Fang West, we were caught again after seeking shelter in a cave from the rain."
After Youth finished speaking, the short man continued: "Those two are simply bastards. Direction East and Fang West, they even killed my brother! I must take revenge on them; no matter who their parents are, as long as I have breath left in me, I will kill them. Fang Hanshan, just wait; you will die too."
Fang Hanshan asked several questions to that Youth, who answered without holding anything back. Fang Hanshan was filled with rage and was about to explode.
Fang West said to her father: "Take us with you to find the elders so that our cousin and Cousin can explain the real situation to them. The elders should be reasonable, right?"
Fang Hanshan nodded in agreement without further thought, pulling along Youth and the short man as they walked ahead. Fang West held onto Guan Yue, following behind as they rushed toward another estate.
The five of them passed through several checkpoints before entering a cave. However, this cave was different; inside it was built a massive Palatial Architecture, everything inside was exquisite, and numerous everlasting lamps were placed around, illuminating the cave as bright as day.
Arriving at the center of the cave, Fang Hanshan shouted loudly, and soon after, the Three Elders appeared in the grand hall of the cave, taking their seats on three elevated platforms.
Fang Hanshan began recounting the entire situation respectfully to the Three Elders. Subsequently, both Youth and the short man also told their truths.
Everything became very clear.
Guan Yue looked at the Three Elders sitting on the high platform. In the center sat a very fat man, whose body was almost as wide as it was tall. To his left was a very thin man, exceptionally skinny and small, weighing perhaps only one-tenth of the fat man's weight. To the right was a tall individual, whose face was pale and devoid of color due to years of not seeing sunlight.
After hearing all the statements, the fat man solemnly announced, "Since that is the case, starting today, you, Gao Hanshan, will be the clan leader of the Fang Family. The second elder will take you out to announce this to the entire family immediately. The family guard will also follow your command; anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy."
Then the fat man looked at Guan Yue and said, "However, this outsider must stay. This matter cannot be leaked; otherwise, our Fang Family will have no standing in the martial world."
Gao Hanshan loudly stated, "This person is named Guan Yue. Guan Yue has saved my son and daughter three times; he is truly a benefactor of our Fang Family. Elders, please do not act against him."
The fat man angrily replied, "We know what we are doing. Hurry up and follow the second elder to accept your authority over the family. However, you must quickly break through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm; otherwise, there may be unforeseen changes."
Little Slim forcibly pulled Fang Hanshan out.
The tall man coldly asked Guan Yue, "You with the surname Guan, where do you come from? What is your intention in infiltrating our Fang Family?"
Guan Yue retorted angrily, "I am friends with those from Direction East and West. I help those in need; how could I possibly infiltrate your Fang Family?"
"Our Fang Family matters are to be managed by our own people; outsiders have no place in it!" The fat man shouted back fiercely.
Fang West had just been excited that her father had become Clan Leader; her heart was naturally pleased. However, she noticed that the two elders seemed to want to act against Guan Yue, which made her anxious. She grabbed Guan Yue's arm and loudly declared, "Elders, Guan Yue is my husband; he is not an outsider!"
Fang West's declaration surprised Guan Yue greatly. How did he become her husband? Even he didn't know!
The fat man became even angrier and shouted, "Young lady, don't speak nonsense! Old Man doesn't even know where your husband came from! An outsider is still an outsider; our Fang Family's family disgrace must never be leaked. Our Fang Family has stood in the martial world for a thousand years and must not give any leverage to our enemies."
The tall man then addressed Guan Yue sternly: "You with the surname Guan, considering your contributions to our Fang Family, I won't take your life. However, to prevent our family's matters from leaking out, I give you two choices: one is to be imprisoned in our Fang Family's dungeon forever and released after a hundred years; the other is to have your arms and tongue removed so you cannot reveal our secrets. You can choose now."
The words of these two elders made Guan Yue furious beyond measure. These two old fools were spouting nonsense; their minds were filled with rubbish. What dignity did the Fang Family have left when they were being treated like this by such old bastards?
I can't believe they want to be unreasonable towards me, a good person who speaks out for justice, intending to put me to death.
He pointed angrily at the two elders sitting in high positions: "You, you, you bastards!"
Fang West also stepped forward and said loudly, "Elders, you can't harm Guan Yue! He is not an outsider; he is truly my husband."
At that moment, both Guan Yue and Fang West, filled with anger, unconsciously unleashed their power at the Breaking Heaven Realm. The two elders couldn't help but widen their eyes at them: "Hmm? These two little ones are only in their teens, yet they've both reached the Breaking Heaven Realm? What rare talents!"
Is this a blessing or a curse for our Fang Family?
No, we absolutely cannot let this brat leave our Fang Family; otherwise, it will lead to endless troubles!
After a quick thought, the chubby one immediately asked, "West, you actually broke through to the Breaking Heaven Realm?"
"Elders, West only broke through to the Breaking Heaven Realm with Guan Yue's help," Fang West quickly praised Guan Yue when she saw a glimmer of hope.
"How did he help you?" the chubby one asked again.
Fang West glanced at Guan Yue and seeing that he had no objections, replied, "Guan Yue refined a Skybreaking Beneficial Pill for me to take, which allowed me to break through."
"Really?"
Fang West hurriedly said, "If I deceive the elders, may I be struck by lightning. Moreover, West still has one more pill that Guan Yue prepared for my brother."
"Let me see." The chubby one extended his hand. Fang West reluctantly handed over the Skybreaking Beneficial Pill that Guan Yue had prepared for her brother. She feared that the chubby one would covet this pill since his grandson had also reached the Peak of the Great Path.
Sure enough, the chubby one took the Skybreaking Beneficial Pill and examined it repeatedly before tucking it away. He casually said to Fang West, "Your brother is currently at Great Dao Realm High-Quality and not yet at peak state; giving it to him now would be a waste. Wait until he reaches peak before discussing it. This one will be used by your brother first; it's better for our Fang Family to have another person at Breaking Heaven Realm as soon as possible."
Guan Yue was extremely angry; he had never seen such a shameless person before. So he secretly directed a colorless beam of light at the pill, reducing its effectiveness. He would not allow the fat man's grandson to reach the Breaking Heaven Realm; otherwise, that fat man would become even more arrogant and domineering.
In terms of personal Combat Power, Guan Yue could clearly feel that Gong Bufan was much stronger than any of the three of them compared to Yellow Robe Sage. At this moment, he did not know the outcome of their battle. It should be that Yellow Robe Sage had the absolute upper hand, right?
After obtaining the Skybreaking Beneficial Pill, the fat man was delighted, and his decision changed: "Since this Guan kid wants to marry you, let him marry you. Before the marriage, he must not be released from the Fang Family. Otherwise, I will have words with your father. Go now."
The tall man wanted to say something, but the fat man quickly ran off; he was eager to give his grandson the Skybreaking Beneficial Pill.
The tall man could only sigh deeply, stomp his feet a few times, and then leave angrily with his hands behind his back.
Regarding this unexpected turn of events, Fang West was completely taken aback. It wasn't until both elders had left that Fang West realized that Guan Yue was no longer in danger. So she happily rushed into Guan Yue's arms and began to sob.
Guan Yue knew that the earlier situation had frightened her quite a bit, so he gently held her and comforted her until she gradually stopped crying. Then he hurriedly took her away from the lavish cave.
As they emerged, they found the entire Fang Family in an uproar.
It turned out that the Fang Family guard team was attacking and clearing out those who opposed Fang Hanshan as the patriarch of the Fang Family. Seeing that the family guard team had really come to their doorstep, as family members, they naturally had no choice but to surrender and acknowledge Fang Hanshan's position as patriarch.
In the end, ten heads of families were captured, and all other family members recognized Fang Hanshan.
Thus, Fang Hanshan finally seized control of the family. The captured heads of families were all released after writing guarantees in blood.
Guan Yue witnessed all of this and realized that having a powerful force of his own was an important guarantee for protecting his interests from being infringed upon!
