Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible - Chapter 1420
Chapter 1420 The Only Father God
“I’m fine.” Lin Fan tried to make his voice sound calm, but the aversion of his eyes revealed the turmoil in his heart. He silently asked himself in his heart, could the power of evil really not be completely controlled by himself? Why is there always an indescribable worry that lingers like a shadow.
Phoenix keenly caught Lin Fan’s subtle changes, her heart ached, and the corners of her eyes couldn’t help but turn red. “Lin Fan, it’s only because of me that I cause trouble to you every time. I’m really sorry…” There was deep apology and self-blame in her voice. She knew that since she met Lin Fan, he had been in danger many times because of her, and this guilt weighed on her heart like a heavy stone.
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect Phoenix to say this. He turned around and looked into Phoenix’s apologetic eyes, feeling a warmth surge in his heart. He shook his head gently, with a gentle smile on his face, “How could it be possible? Don’t think about it too much. We are friends and we should help each other. Let’s go and have a look at your house. Maybe we can find something new. Discover.”
On the way to Fenghuang’s house, the two passed through the bustling streets of Muni City and arrived at the middle-class aristocratic area outside the east gate. This was once a commercial battlefield, where fierce competition and bustling transactions took place. However, a sudden fierce battle completely changed the appearance of this place, and the once prosperity was reduced to ruins. Now, after reconstruction, it has become a residential area for middle-class nobles in Mooney City, quiet and peaceful.
As night falls, the surrounding scenery gradually becomes blurred and shrouded in a layer of faint shadow. The evening breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, as if it wanted to heal the trauma of this land.
Under the guidance of Phoenix, Lin Fan saw the outline of the large villa from a distance. It stands quietly in the night, as if telling a story of the past. Phoenix’s eyes became a little complicated at this moment, and she said softly: “Those dead soldiers also lived there. They were okay at first, but then they became more and more disobedient to discipline. Even my father was not looked down upon. I don’t know. Did anything big happen at home during this time?”
Lin Fan frowned slightly when he heard this. He could feel the sadness and helplessness in Phoenix’s tone. These so-called dead men had probably become a major hidden danger in the family. He said solemnly: “Dead soldiers? If they are really what you said, then their existence may not only be for cheating people to eat and drink. We need to deal with them carefully and see if we can find out their true purpose.”
Phoenix nodded, her eyes shining with determination. She knew that with Lin Fan’s company and support, she would have the courage to face it no matter how many difficulties and challenges lay ahead. The two walked side by side to the villa, ready to face unknown challenges and mysteries.
As they approached, the outline of the villa gradually became clear. Lin Fan looked at the building and saw that although it had been renovated, it still had a calm and noble temperament. There were two uniformed guards standing at the door. They scanned the surroundings with vigilant eyes, as if they were guarding against something.
Lin Fan and Fenghuang approached, and the guard immediately stepped forward to ask. After learning their identities, the guard’s attitude became obviously more respectful, but there was still a trace of vigilance in his eyes. Lin Fan observed secretly, knowing in his heart that these guards may have been affected by the dead soldiers and had to stay vigilant at all times.
After entering the villa, they were shocked by what they saw. The originally spacious and bright hall now became dilapidated, with furniture randomly discarded in the corners, and various waste and broken decorations remaining on the floor. This scene made Phoenix’s eyes turn red again, and she bit her lower lip tightly, trying not to cry.
“How could it be like this?” Lin Fan asked in a deep voice, his heart filled with anger and confusion. What on earth did these dead men do to destroy a good home like this!
Phoenix shook his head, his voice choked with sobs: “I don’t know… I really don’t know how they became like this. They were not like this before, they were all loyal family members, but since that fierce battle, they seem to have changed. Like a person.”
Lin Fan clenched his fists and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He knew that there must be some ulterior secret hidden behind these dead soldiers. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down: “Don’t worry, we will find out the truth. Now, let’s go see your father’s situation first.”
Led by Phoenix, they walked through a messy hall and came to the depths of the villa. A spacious study room came into view. The door of the study room was closed tightly. Through the crack in the door, you could faintly hear the low conversation inside. Lin Fan and Fenghuang looked at each other, knowing in their hearts that the answer they were looking for might be hidden behind this door. They opened the door carefully and walked in quietly…
The scene in the study room shocked Lin Fan and Fenghuang again. I saw a mess in the study room, the books on the bookshelf were thrown carelessly on the floor, the ink bottle was knocked over, and the expensive carpet was stained black with ink. In the center of the study, a middle-aged man was tied to a chair. He was disheveled and his face was full of anger and helplessness.
“Father!” Phoenix exclaimed and immediately rushed forward to rescue his father. Lin Fan followed closely behind, looking at the surrounding environment vigilantly.
When the middle-aged man saw the arrival of Fenghuang and Lin Fan, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He struggled to speak, but was unable to make a sound because of the tight binding. Phoenix hurriedly untied the rope for him, tears welling up in his eyes: “Father God, I love you…”,
