The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

He usually dotes on his youngest daughter the most, but this has also caused her to have a very bad personality: she is fearless and doesn't listen to anyone when she speaks.

But those were all within the Wang family compound, where there was no real danger. Now, things are different. Standing opposite her is Fang Yun, a ruthless person. If she gets annoyed, she could just kill him, and he probably wouldn't be able to say a word, let alone seek revenge.

"Listen to Daddy, Daddy will buy you a windmill to play with when we get back!"

Wang Tianlin could only patiently explain again.

"No, I want it now! Daddy, come with me now!" the little girl cried again.

This time, Wang Tianlin was both shocked and furious, and asked, "Where is your sister? Where did Wang Qing'er go? Tell her to take you away."

Wang'er chuckled to herself upon hearing this: "Hehe, I've shaken off my sister, I'm playing hide-and-seek with her now!"

Just as Wang'er was speaking, a clear voice called out from the doorway.

"Son, where are you? Come out quickly, don't disturb your uncles' conversation."

Upon hearing this voice, everyone felt that the girl was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and her voice was very delicate, like that of a nightingale.

Upon hearing this voice, Wang Tianlin's face immediately changed color, and he shouted, "Qing'er, hurry up and come in and take your sister away from me!"

The others couldn't help but look towards the door, wanting to see what Wang Tianlin's eldest daughter looked like.

Then, a girl dressed in an apricot-yellow dress came running over, and everyone's eyes lit up. She then slowed down and entered the hall. She had fair skin and delicate features, and could be considered a little beauty.

Although she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, she still had a slender and mature figure, which was especially accentuated by the yellow tulle dress, making her figure even more beautiful.

It must be said that although Wang Tianlin was a bad person, he was quite handsome, and his daughters were naturally not bad either; one was outstanding in appearance, and the other was also charming and cute.

When Wang Qing'er saw Wang Tianlin, she looked apologetic. She then lowered her head slightly and walked to Wang Tianlin's side, saying in a low voice, "I'm sorry... it was my oversight." As soon as she said that, Wang Qing'er saw Wang'er making a face at her, and she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Wang Tianlin said in a deep voice, "Who told you to be so careless? Don't you know we're discussing business with him? Get your sister away from me right now!"

"Yes."

Wang Qing'er obediently agreed, then took her sister's hand and led her away from the hall. Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but think, "Wang Tianlin is such a cunning and treacherous person, yet his daughter is like an angel. It's truly strange."

After the two left, Wang Tianlin quickly stepped forward, bowed to Fang Yun, and said, "Young Master Fang, I am truly sorry that my daughter was abrupt just now. Please don't take offense."

Fang Yun didn't speak, but his expression softened considerably.

At this moment, Li Kui suddenly ran to Wang Tianlin's side and whispered, "Master, this young master Fang is only in his early twenties. I just saw that he seemed quite interested in Miss Qing. Why don't you..."

Wang Tianlin was a shrewd man; as soon as he heard Li Kui say this, he immediately understood what Li Kui meant.

If Fang Yun really takes a liking to Wang Qing'er, not only will today's crisis be resolved immediately, but his position in the Wang family will also be unshakeable in the future.

Despite his turbulent emotions, Wang Tianlin remained respectful and said, "Young Master Fang, I was indeed wrong today, but I only ask that you punish me and give me a chance to express my apology."

"Would you be so kind as to visit my residence and allow me to properly entertain you? Even if it means I have to die to atone for my sins after this is over, I will have no regrets."

Since things had come to this point, and Wang Hai needed to return to the Wang family to retrieve the magical artifact, Fang Yun thought for a moment and agreed.

At that moment, apart from the flying bat that was still howling, the rest of them followed behind to the Prince's mansion to gather [something].

Chapter 686 Subjugation

This farce eventually came to an end. Fang Yun couldn't bear to teach Wang Tianlin a lesson in front of his two daughters, so she decided to let him off the hook for now.

Upon receiving this news, Wang Tianlin was overjoyed and immediately invited Fang Yun to his residence. He promised to treat Fang Yun with the highest level of hospitality and would not be slighted.

As for the matter of clearing up the misunderstanding, Wang Tianlin didn't mention it again. By the time Fang Yun visited the Wang family again, the misunderstanding had already been resolved on its own. Considering that the Wang family would go to such lengths to invite Fang Yun, and that Fang Yun was actually a legendary Earth Profound Realm cultivator, even if Wang Tianlin wanted to commit murder for money, he wouldn't be able to do it.

Therefore, Wang Tianlin is currently in a very good mood, and it is very likely that this move will solidify his position as the head of the family.

I ask you, who has the ability to invite a true Di Xuan to be their guest?

As for Fang Yun, he simply watched everything coldly, ultimately saying nothing. That's just how reality is in this world; often, how others treat you depends on your strength. Since Fang Yun had demonstrated his power, people naturally changed their attitude.

As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face, and given Wang Tianlin's obsequious manner, Fang Yun couldn't directly reprimand him.

"Young Master Fang, please rest here. Tonight, the entire Wang family will be waiting for your arrival!"

After saying this, Wang Tianlin took his leave and went back to his residence to prepare, as it required a lot of effort to make grand arrangements.

As for Li Kui, he also bowed to Fang Yun and then hurriedly left with Wang Tianlin.

In the end, the matter turned out well, and Wang Tianlin probably wouldn't blame him. Right now, he was going to help Wang Tianlin arrange the banquet.

As for Qi Gang, he also had a hint of shame on his face. He bowed to Fang Yun apologetically and then turned and left.

Soon, only Fang Yun, Wang Hai, and the flying bat lying on the ground remained in the council hall.

The flying bat has now lost a wing, and its whole body is covered in blood, looking half-dead.

When the flying bat saw Fang Yun looking at it, its eyes were filled with resentment and venom: "You little brat, even if you kill me today, I will swear a blood oath to kill you in the future!"

Fang Yun frowned slightly, and the flying bat continued, "Once I die, my disciples and followers will not let you off the hook, and you will live under endless harassment..."

"Shut up!" Fang Yun suddenly shouted, taking a few steps forward. "Do you even want to live? If you want to live, you'd better behave yourself."

The flying bat scoffed, saying, "Kid, don't try to act tough in front of me. If your bat grandpa hadn't injured himself while practicing these past few days, you'd still be too green for me!"

The Flying Bat was also a proud and arrogant person. Although he also wanted to live, he ultimately couldn't lower his head in front of Fang Yun.

"Really? What if I said I could attach wings to you and elevate your level?"

"Stop talking nonsense..."

The flying bat curled its lip, about to make a sarcastic remark, when it suddenly saw a strange luster covering Fang Yun's palm. Then, some points of light emitted from Fang Yun's hand like fireflies and landed on the flying bat's broken wound.

The flying bat suddenly found its body as comfortable as if it were soaking in a hot spring, and the wounds that had been excruciatingly painful were now gradually healing.

What was even more surprising was that a vision of mountains and rivers suddenly appeared in his mind. He was flying freely and boldly in that vast world, and his wings became stronger and more flexible.

Originally, these wings were forcibly attached to the flying bat by a dark magic technique it had learned, like a bloodline weapon. But now, the wings seemed to have grown out of its own body, which made the flying bat feel wonderful.

However, just as the flying bat was having a sweet dream, a cold voice interrupted him.

"I'm giving you a choice: submit or die."

The flying bat looked at Fang Yun and saw that his eyes held the vastness of mountains and rivers, just like the world it had longed for. Suddenly, it hesitated.

"I……"

"I told you, as long as you obediently submit, I will naturally grant you an opportunity. Otherwise, you will always remain this inhuman, ghost-like state."

Upon hearing this, the flying bat's defenses were finally broken down, and its eyes looked at Fang Yun with a mixture of hope and fear.

Fang Yun's methods are truly unheard of. Could he be the legendary "Tianxuan"?

The flying bat didn't dare to think too much. After struggling for a while, it finally uttered a few words with a sigh of relief: "At your command."

"Alright, you can stay here at the villa to recover for now. I'll come see you again in a few days."

With that, Fang Yun waved his hand, and the flying bat went black in its eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Chapter 687 Grand Banquet

Fang Yun walked out of the council hall, where Wang Hai was waiting.

He looked at Fang Yun with some surprise.

"I never imagined that Young Master Fang's strength would be far more terrifying than I had thought."

Fang Yun smiled faintly: "Sometimes, strength alone cannot accomplish everything."

Then, Fang Yun asked, "I wonder what kind of strength the leader of your organization has?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Hai frowned and said, "To be honest, I'm not entirely sure either. No one has seen him go all out yet, but my initial estimate is that he's at least at the Earth Profound level."

Fang Yun said "Oh," and understood in her heart.

To support such a large organization, you really need to have some skills.

"It's alright. Once we get to the Wang family, we'll have them remove the magic artifact from your status. We can discuss the rest later."

Fang Yun's main focus remained on that underground ruin.

According to Fang Yun's estimate, this may be the largest ancient site to be unearthed in recent decades, and its archaeological and cultural value will be immeasurable.

For this plan to proceed smoothly, Fang Yun still had to rely on Wang Hai.

Only he knew some of the organization's secrets and methods of communication, and then he managed to get information about the ruins for me. Otherwise, it would have been very difficult for me to handle it alone.

At this moment, Wang Hai also saw the Flying Bat sleeping in the hall and asked in surprise, "Young Master Fang, are you planning to let him go?"

Fang Yun said, "Killing him won't do any good. We might as well keep him and use him as a surprise move later."

Fang Yun could also tell from his fight with the Flying Bat that the man was incredibly talented and had a very solid foundation in lightness skills and flight.

If he can master this skill, he'll be a human reconnaissance aircraft. Fang Yun doesn't want to waste such a talent.

"Alright, let's find a place to rest a bit. Tonight, I'll have Wang Tianlin bring you that magic artifact."

Wang Hai nodded, and then the two found two bedrooms to sleep in. This was originally the Wang family's vacation property, and everything had been prepared, so the two slept quite comfortably.

As dusk approached, the two quickly tidied up and headed towards the Wang family's residence.

It is the transition from spring to summer, and the countryside is lush with vegetation and fragrant with flowers, making it the perfect time for tourists to go on outings.

The southwest main street of Qingyang Town was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, with large red lanterns hanging at the door of every household, leading all the way to a magnificent mansion.

Above the central plaque of the mansion are the words "Prince's Residence," while on either side of the entrance, on stone platforms, stand two flagpoles, each bearing a banner with words of welcome. The characters are vigorous and powerful, exuding strength.

Fang Yun couldn't help but smile inwardly. It seemed that Wang Tianlin really took this matter to heart, making such a big fuss and going to such lengths.

Below these two fluttering red banners are two majestic stone lions. The one on the left is baring its claws and looks very fierce, while the one on the right is pouncing as if it is about to pounce on its prey.
