Lan Family.

As an overlord-level hidden family, the Lan Family has always been calm, like a deep lake, undisturbed even by the slightest breeze.

After all, at this level, very few things are significant enough to cause a ripple in the Lan Family.

However, today, a piece of news has thrown the entire Lan Family into extreme shock.

The young lady, without the consent of the Family Head and other senior members, has joined the Ruthless Path!

As an overlord-level power, the Lan Family has countless cultivation techniques at its disposal.

Moreover, the young lady of the Lan Family is remarkably talented and at the peak of her youth; why did she choose the Ruthless Path alone?

This news stunned the entire Lan Family and filled them with overwhelming anger!

The young lady of the Lan Family was raised with knowledge of poetry and etiquette, unlike the arrogant heirs of other families; she was elegant and dignified, like a fairy stepping out of a painting!

Yet this perfect fairy has joined the Ruthless Path! Who knows how many dreams of the Lan Family's offspring this has shattered!

"No matter who it is! No matter which scoundrel! If they dare bully my Lan Family like this, I will tear them to pieces!"

In the grand hall, a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance, who bore some resemblance to Lan Xinyi, let out a furious roar that made the entire hall tremble.

This man was none other than Lan Xinyi's father, also the family head of the Lan Family, Lan Tongxuan!

At this moment, Lan Tongxuan's face was twisted and ferocious, a terrifying aura surged from him, instilling fear!

As the Family Head of the Lan Family, Lan Tongxuan was industrious and dedicated, leading the Lan Family's rapid development and solidifying its overlord status, while secretly enhancing its strength.

Yet as Lan Xinyi's father, Lan Tongxuan was not quite competent.

For the sake of the Lan Family, Lan Tongxuan devoted most of his energy to the family, naturally spending less time with Lan Xinyi.

Since she could remember, Lan Xinyi almost never disturbed Lan Tongxuan in handling family matters, not even once acting spoiled around him.

Thinking about this, Lan Tongxuan's heart ached uncontrollably!

Originally, Lan Tongxuan planned to stabilize the family over the next two years, then shower all his love on his daughter, making up for lost time, and even find a husband for her!

Only the most outstanding young men in the world, only the finest young male could be worthy of his daughter!

However, all of that has become empty talk.

Yesterday, Lan Xinyi returned, not saying a word, she silently went into seclusion.

The next day, Lan Xinyi was covered with white hair, her face as cold as ice, she had joined the Ruthless Path!

The so-called Ruthless Path means severing all emotions in the heart, never again tainted with emotions in life.

If it were a seventy or eighty-year-old who had seen through the world, naturally no one would find it strange, but Lan Xinyi was barely twenty, at the cusp of blossoming emotions, the most beautiful time of one's life!

Such a thing is heart-wrenching, even more so infuriating!

Who did such a cruel thing, hurting a young girl in her prime, like a fairy, to such an extent?

Whoever it is, whatever the reason, it is unforgivable!

"Family Head! Yesterday, the young lady went to the base to participate in the grand base competition, accompanied by the talented Luo Yan of the Luo Family! Could it be that…"

Amid the senior members, one stepped forward and spoke.

Lan Xinyi was not only the apple of Lan Tongxuan's eye but also the princess of all the Lan Family's senior members!

There is no better young lady in the world than our own! And now, such a thing happened to her!

Everyone was livid with anger! Even if it was that talented member of the Luo Family, they would not spare him!

"That Luo Yan from the Luo Family? Is he worthy?"

Surprisingly, Lan Tongxuan dismissed this speculation with a wave of his hand, looking disdainful.

Lan Tongxuan was well aware of how exceptional his daughter was, even the talented member of the Luo Family was not qualified to hurt his daughter to such an extent!

"Report!"

As the words faded, a figure appeared in the grand hall, kneeling on one knee, moving so fast it seemed like they had always been there.

Lan Tongxuan abruptly stood from his seat, a terrifying aura rising slowly, as numerous senior members stared at the figure with burning eyes.

For an ordinary person, witnessing such a scene would be enough to make them tremble with fear!

However, the figure remained calm, lifting his head to reveal a young face. Facing Lan Tongxuan and the enraged crowd, his voice was steady, with not a hint of trembling.

"Report to the Family Head, yesterday, everything about the young lady has been clarified!"

One stone stirred a thousand waves! The uproar among the senior members could be heard from afar!

"Speak quickly! Who hurt the young lady like this!?"

"Regardless of whose child it is, I will peel their skin!"

Boom!

A terrifying aura surged, engulfing all the furious senior members, and in the next moment, all sounds disappeared.

At the head, Lan Tongxuan's face looked ominous, as he slowly spat out a single word.

"Speak!"

The young man, who had remained calm, changed his expression slightly upon seeing Lan Tongxuan, but his voice remained steady.

"Report to the Family Head! Yesterday, Luo Yan and the young lady formed an alliance, but the one who harmed the young lady was not Luo Yan."

Not Luo Yan?

In the small base, true experts were few; the only one who could sit alongside Lan Xinyi was Luo Yan!

If it wasn't Luo Yan who harmed the young lady, then who was it?

Lan Tongxuan fixed his gaze fiercely on the young man, saying nothing, yet a terrifying aura slowly rose.

The young man gritted his teeth and began, "In fact, no one harmed the young lady! I investigated almost all the base's students, and there were no substantial discrepancies in their testimonies."

Boom!

There was an explosive uproar in the grand hall.

No one harmed the young lady? Then why did she join the Ruthless Path? What on earth happened to her?

Lan Tongxuan's face looked grim as he stared at the kneeling young man, speaking word by word, "Is this, your answer to me?"

Boom!

The young man shivered all over, gritting his teeth, he laid out his immature conclusion.

"Report to the Family Head, it is said that a boy named Xu Fan merely glanced coldly at the young lady!"

Bang!

The armrest in Lan Tongxuan's hand shattered, his eyes filled with ice-cold fury, "Kill!"

"Yes!"

All the senior members bowed, even though everyone found it somewhat absurd that a boy they had never heard of, merely casting a cold glance at the young lady, could be the culprit.

Yet, the Family Head's orders were never questioned.

However, just as everyone rose, preparing to kill the boy named Xu Fan, they suddenly froze.

A figure was standing at the entrance of the grand hall, the white hair fluttering like snow in the breeze, freezing the entire hall.
