Chapter 825 True Identity (1)



The mastermind only allowed himself to be shocked for a few seconds before saying, "How do you know if I\'m lying or not? What if I\'m not lying and there really is an antidote? Would you be able to live with yourself if you knew that there was one and you didn\'t do anything to help?"

There was a hint of panic in his voice when he said this, but he knew that this was the only way for him.

The only thing that he could do was ask these misleading questions to try and create a bit of doubt in Lin Fan. As long as there was doubt, he would hesitate to kill him since there was still the possibility that he would have the antidote.

But Lin Fan didn\'t fall for this at all.

He just calmly looked at him and said, "You have already shown your killing intent, there\'s no need to hide it anymore."

The mastermind wouldn\'t give up as he was about to say something, but Lin Fan cut him off again by saying, "As for whether there is really an antidote or not, that is not up to you to say. I\'ll talk to you once it\'s done."

The mastermind felt a chill run down his spine when he heard this and he immediately said, "What do you…Ah!"

Before he could finish, he suddenly felt a stinging sensation coming from his mind. Then after that, there was a mind rending pain that he had never felt before that suddenly ran right through him from head to toe.

It was as if there was something that was digging right into his brain and was running along the nerves in his body, ripping it apart bit by bit and replacing it. As this happened, the light that had once been in the mastermind\'s eyes started to dim as if he was losing his free will.

This was Brainy\'s Parasite Seed that was taking over his body. However, the pain that he was feeling was deliberate.

Normally it wouldn\'t hurt at all for Brainy\'s Parasite Seed to wrap around the nerve system of the target, but Lin Fan had ordered Brainy to make it as painful as possible. So right now, the thorns of the Parasite Seed\'s vines were currently stabbing the mastermind\'s nerves from every angle, causing him unimaginable pain.

That was the little bit of revenge that he was taking.

Of course, he didn\'t forget himself in his revenge and had made sure to set up a sound law barrier to ensure that his screams weren\'t heard by anyone.

The screaming didn\'t last long before the mastermind completely succumbed to Brainy\'s Parasite Seed. Once the Parasite Seed had taken over, the mastermind looked at Lin Fan with those dead eyes and waited for orders.

The first order that Lin Fan gave was naturally for the mastermind to hand over the antidote.

But as he had expected, there was no antidote.

The mastermind told him the entire plan, "The plan was to use poison to kill both of them. First use the old man to attract the girl and then use the poison to kill them both since poison isn\'t easily tracked. Of course, the mission was to kill them, so there\'s no antidote to this poison at all."

Lin Fan knitted his brows even though he had expected this.

He had already checked Duanmu Hua Yu\'s body and even with his knowledge, he wasn\'t able to recognize the poison or cure it. After all, there were many different plants on many different planets, it was impossible for him to recognize everything.

His cultivation and attainments with the Nine Revolution  Pill Refining Technique wasn\'t good enough for him to refine the All Cure Pill, the pill that could detoxify any kind of poison. So there really was nothing that he could do if this person didn\'t have an antidote.

While Lin Fan had his brows knit in thought, Duanmu Hua Yu suddenly stood up and walked over to him.

Lin Fan was shocked to see this and quickly said, "You should lie down and prevent the poison from spreading. As long as you don\'t move, you should be able to last long enough for me to find an antidote."

But Duanmu Hua Yu just shook his head.

He had already accepted his death since he knew that these words from Lin Fan were nothing more than empty promises. He knew that it was impossible for Lin Fan to find an antidote for him before he succumbed to the poison, so he wanted to use the final bit of his life to do what he needed to do.

He turned around and suddenly attacked the mastermind, but Lin Fan quickly reached out to stop him.

Duanmu Hua Yu narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan, but Lin Fan explained, "He\'s fully under my control. There\'s no need to kill him, I can still use him for other things."

Duanmu Hua Yu had a bit of doubt in his eyes, but since it was Lin Fan saying this, he had no reason to doubt him. Lin Fan had shown him many things that could be considered a miracle, so he didn\'t need to doubt Lin Fan when he said this.

So after a pause, Duanmu Hua Yu turned back to Lin Fan with something written on his board.

"Will you listen to a story?"

Lin Fan could tell from the heavy look on his face that it was something serious, so after a moment of hesitation, he gave a nod.

Duanmu Hua Yu ignored the pain in his body as his shaking hand began writing his final words on the tablet.

Over the next few minutes, Lin Fan learned all about the true identities of Duanmu Hua Yu and Min\'er. As he had expected, it was anything from simple, but it also went far beyond what he could imagine.

When he finished listening, he couldn\'t help feeling a bit of regret choosing them that day in the wasteland…

But it was already too late for regret.

After he finished telling Lin Fan his story, Duanmu Hua Yu wrote, "Will you help keep Min\'er safe? Even if she never reclaims what belongs to her and gets her revenge, all I want is for to be safe."

Lin Fan hesitated a bit before giving a nod, making this promise to Duanmu Hua Yu.

Duanmu Hua Yu\'s lips slowly curled up before he wrote, "Thank you."

Then with the final bit of strength that he had left, he raised his hand which had something in it towards Lin Fan. However, before he could give this thing to Lin Fan, he lost his final bit of strength and his hand started to fall downwards.

Lin Fan reached out before his hand could fall to the ground and held tight as he took the item that he had been holding. As he held his hand, he looked at Duanmu Hua Yu and said, "I will protect Min\'er for you."

He felt like there was a squeeze in the hand that he was holding, but he wasn\'t sure as Duanmu Hua Yu collapsed onto the ground.

Lin Fan took one last look at him before having Brainy take away Duanmu Hua Yu\'s corpse.

He then turned his attention to the people covered in vines lying on the side and his eyes turned cold. After a moment of silence, he said, "You can take care of them."

If one looked at it from the side, they might think that Lin Fan was crazy for talking to himself. However, he was actually talking to Brainy that was in his sleeve.

With a nod, Brainy jumped out from Lin Fan\'s sleeve and disappeared into the ground along with the people covered in vines. She also took away the mastermind and Duanmu Hua Yu\'s corpse.

As for Lin Fan, he was just left standing there with a difficult look on his face.

After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly shook his head and gave a sigh before walking out of the quarry.

Lin Fan moved quickly and soon he arrived at a place outside of the city.

This was the place that Duanmu Hua Yu had told Min\'er to hide in after she received that symbol from him.

He hadn\'t known about this place before, but Duanmu Hua Yu had told him where it was with his last dying breath.

Since it had been short, he hadn\'t been able to clearly describe where the cave Min\'er hiding in was. Lin Fan had also sent Brainy away, so he had to control the puppets himself to find this place.

Naturally Lin Fan wasn\'t as skilled at controlling the puppets as Brainy, so it had taken him some time to find this cave.

After he did, he slowly walked in to find an empty cave. However, Lin Fan wasn\'t worried because he knew the trick of this cave.

He walked over to one of the stalactites on the roof and then with a turn of his hand, he turned the tip of the stalactite to the side.

As the tip of the stalactite turned, there was a grinding sound that rang out before one of the walls opened up to reveal a secret room. Inside of that secret room was Min\'er sitting there holding a stuffed rabbit.

When the door opened, Min\'er looked out with a look filled with hope, but that diminished a bit when she saw that it was Lin Fan there. She couldn\'t help asking, "Big brother Lin, where\'s grandpa?"

Lin Fan shook his head and gave a sigh before saying, "Your grandpa is no longer in this world. I\'ll be taking care of you from now on."

Min\'er\'s eyes immediately filled with tears before she charged forward and started hitting Lin Fan with her little fists while shouting, "You\'re lying! You\'re lying!"

Lin Fan gave another sigh before raising his hand and reaching out towards Min\'er\'s head before saying, "Unfortunately, you have to die as well."

Min\'er trembled when she heard this and she looked up in disbelief. But even this look couldn\'t stop Lin Fan\'s hand from approaching.

Lin Fan\'s hand came closer and closer until it covered up her vision and soon everything turned to black for her.

As her vision disappeared, her consciousness also faded. Her body turned soft before crumpling, falling backwards into Lin Fan\'s other hand that was already waiting to catch her.

Lin Fan just looked at her peaceful expression before saying in a sad voice, "This is the only way."

After giving one last sigh, Lin Fan picked Min\'er\'s body off the ground and turned around to head out of the cave without turning back once. Once he was out of the cave, he flicked his hand and the entire mountain that the cave was a part of collapsed to the ground, disappearing without a trace.
