Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

The Lin Family has fallen, and the next step is naturally their internal struggle, to see who can stand out.

The previous alliance agreements with the other three families have naturally become blurred.

There is only one position; whoever is soft-hearted must withdraw from the competition.

”Son, the opportunity for our Nanyuan Family to vie for the position is hard-won. Maybe, at some point, you might have to face your partners with blades drawn. Be mentally prepared in advance.”

Nanyuan En’s father spoke earnestly.

Nanyuan En’s expression turned somewhat hesitant, seemingly deep in thought. Finally, he gathered his courage and took a deep breath, speaking.

”Father, aren’t we on the same front with the other three families? Why make it so clear? Managing Da Liang City together isn’t impossible either.”

”Foolish!”

As soon as Nanyuan En finished speaking, he was reprimanded.

Nanyuan En’s father glared at his son, as if hating iron for not becoming steel.

”Do you know how much we’ve sacrificed for this opportunity? For the rise of the Nanyuan Family, what does your little childish friendship count for? Remember, you carry the bloodline of the Nanyuan Family; you are destined to be extraordinary! Destined to dominate the entire Da Liang City! To become the next Lin Family! The next Eldest Ancestor!”

Seeing his father erupt in anger, Nanyuan En immediately lowered his head, silent.

Only then did Nanyuan En’s father calm his emotions and said in a deep voice: ”Alright, you’re tired today, go back to your room and rest. Later, I’ll arrange for you to go to the Haven of the Heart, deliver some supplies to the poisoned citizens, and bring our latest Detoxification Potion to see if anyone is willing to volunteer to drink it and see the effects... you should know what to say.”

”Father, I understand.”

”Alright, you may go.”

”Yes.”

Nanyuan En began to withdraw, silently harboring some doubts in his heart.

The rise of the Nanyuan Family is due to the demonization of the Lin Family’s Old Great Ancestor. What price was paid... hasn’t it always been a silent accumulation of strength, only the right time, right place, and harmony of people allowed the Nanyuan Family and other three families to instantly become the top in Da Liang City, standing alongside the Foolish Underworld on the pinnacle after the Lin Family’s decline.

Nanyuan En’s father gradually calmed down after watching his son leave.

He silently sighed.

Some of the family’s matters have indeed begun to be handed over to his son.

But some things haven’t reached the point where his son can manage.

Some dark things, some things that cannot be known by outsiders, still need him to continue to preside over for a while longer, until his son grows a bit more to safely commit them to his son’s hands.

As for the decline of the Lin Family...

There aren’t that many great fortunes dropping from the sky in this world.

What exists is only long-term planning, and carefully strategized layouts.

”Eldest Ancestor, fortunately, the final result was good; otherwise, the Nanyuan Family would have been annihilated that night.”

”Not just the Nanyuan Family, but also the Lu Family, Shu Family... all families involved would have been wiped out that night by the Lin Family’s Old Demon.”

”Just like... what the last descendant of the Lin Family, that girl Lin Liang, did.”

”It’s fortunate that the girl was not a threat, unable to find the real enemy. Her revenge could only result in poisoning the city, dragging the entire city down her path.”

”As for the families wiped out, they were just unlucky.”

Nanyuan En’s father looked outward.

Some secrets, whether to him or to the other family executives, will always be buried deep in their guts, with not a single word leaked outside.

However, that such an impressive feat could be achieved, changing Da Liang City’s situation in one fell swoop, paving the way for their family’s rise, this gamble was undoubtedly their victory.

”Blame Lin Lao Guai’s greed!”

”Having dominated Da Liang City for so many years and still not satisfied, still attempting to go further, trying to control Da Liang City forever and make us perpetual subordinates of the Lin Family!”

”Our Nanyuan Family is no longer the weak Nanyuan Family of the past.”

”Time is a wonderful thing. In the long years, we have grown, other families have also grown. We, who once could only crawl on the ground, finally can stand up and look the giant in the eye.”

”With just a little means, a few strategic layouts, no matter how giant the giant may be, it will crumble internally, collapse.”

”Now, it is our era!”

”The Master of Foolish Earth Mansion, the Family Head of the Nanyuan Family, the Family Head of the Lu Family, the Family Head of the Shu Family... so many masters, with such huge sacrifices, have finally defeated the giant!”

”From now on, Da Liang City belongs to us!”

”Belongs to... the Nanyuan Family!”

Nanyuan En’s father clenched his fist in silence, the tendons on his wrist bulging due to exertion.

In matters of distribution, fairness has never been a consideration, everyone... it’s just up to their methods!

The Nanyuan Family had long made many preparations, to obtain this position of dominance, to take over this position of dominance, they put in more effort than other families.

For example, Lin Liang’s poisoning.

They had actually obtained the news earlier.

But they did not stop it.

The Lin Family has collapsed, but the hearts of the people, still uncertain where they lie.

An all-encompassing city-wide virus can simplify some things.

The moment the Lin Family’s Old Ancestor died, the first to salvage the remnants of the Lin Family was their Nanyuan Family.

Thus, regarding this peculiar poison, they actually had a partial understanding long ago.

Although the information was incomplete, only some stage records of poison development, even so, their Nanyuan Family’s starting point was far ahead of other families.

Undoubtedly, the first to eventually develop the antidote will be their Nanyuan Family!

For instance, the temporary potion to alleviate the onset of poison, developed first by their Nanyuan Family. It will soon come in handy when Nanyuan En goes to comfort the poisoned citizens.

No need for a cure, just temporary symptom relief is enough to win the Nanyuan Family immense public support!

The various calculations involved, are what Nanyuan En has yet to grasp.

”Son, the road, I am still paving for you. But in the end, the Nanyuan Family must be inherited by you.”

The family’s darkness, he temporarily bears.

Ultimately, it still requires Nanyuan En to face and take on.

He has grown old, and devoted too much energy to family management, advancing no more in Martial Arts.

Each generation does the work of its generation, he can only go this far, he replaced the Ancestor in managing all family affairs, paving the way for his son. His Martial Arts cannot break through, it is no longer important; what is essential is that he has paved the way for the next generation.

From now on, the Nanyuan Family, without the suppression of the Lin Family’s Old Ancestor, free of many constraints, coupled with the steady progress of antidote research, once the antidote research is successful, it will be the moment of public alignment!

At that moment, the Nanyuan Family will truly become the king of Da Liang City!

And his son Nanyuan En, will become the second generation... City Lord of Da Liang City!!

”With public expectation, the heart of the people aligning, son, don’t let your father, be disappointed.”

...

”Healed??”

In the Foolish Underworld, Fang Yu looked at Ding Hui in surprise.

The guy brought over and was on the verge of death from poison, almost dying, now breathing steadily, jumping and active.

”Divine, Divine Doctor!”

The patient almost knelt in worship to Ding Hui, just short of lowering her head to lick her feet.

Her name is Kong Feiyun, with elderly family members above, six children below, but due to severe poisoning, she collapsed first, found by the Foolish Underworld’s people in the waiting-for-death camp, and brought here.

In her blurred consciousness, she heard the conversations of the Foolish Underworld officials, seemingly that this Divine Doctor wanted to examine a few severely poisoned patients.

And she was the lucky one, the chosen person.

”It can’t be considered healed, just that her heart is enlarged to forcibly keep her alive.”

Ding Hui told Kong Feiyun not to move, and after administering a few more needles on her, she smiled at Fang Yu.

”But I roughly understand the pathology; solely from the condition, it’s not as complicated as I thought. It looks like it’s the poisoning method that’s a bit special. Allow me to find a few more patients to see if I can deduce what means were used to achieve city-wide contamination.”
