Urban Invincible Mad Immortal

Zhou Ao cried so hard that tears streamed down his face, and Lin Fan immediately frowned.

His intuition told him that what Zhou Ao was about to say was something he didn't know before.

"A'ao, tell me everything you know. To be honest, I don't know much right now."

Zhou Ao nodded and told Lin Fan everything.

It turns out that the Lin family used to hold a very high position in the military, even comparable to the Long family.

Lin Fan was not a military personnel, and Lin Zongyao deliberately concealed this fact, so he never knew.

The Lin family has always controlled one of the strongest armies in the Dragon God Palace, the Divine Strategy Army.

Lin Zongyao is the commander of the Shence Army, and Lin Fan's four older brothers are all generals of the Shence Army!

Later, for some unknown reason, the higher-ups of the Great Xia issued an order to send Lin Fan's four older brothers to four different war zones, greatly reducing the strength of the Shence Army!

Not long after, that tragedy occurred.

Lin Fan's father and brothers each received a mission, and died one after another in battle, their deaths extremely tragic.

Hearing this, Lin Fan's emotions didn't fluctuate much, because he basically knew about these things.

But by the end, he couldn't stay calm!

He finally learned what Long Tiangang had been hiding from him: the Lin family, father and sons, had been labeled traitors by the higher-ups of the Great Xia Dynasty for colluding with the enemy and betraying the country!

Because of Long Tiangang's repeated insistence, the matter remained unresolved and was not completely settled.

The Lin family's assets were temporarily preserved, and Lin Fan was not implicated.

Lin Fan's feelings at this moment were indescribable. His Lin family had risked their lives and shed blood for the Great Xia Dynasty, even sacrificing five precious lives!

Now, they're accusing them of colluding with the enemy and betraying their country?

Lin Fan clenched his fists tightly. All he wanted to do now was find those so-called high-ranking officials, point his finger at them, and curse them viciously: "Go to hell!"

"Young Marshal! These injuries I sustained were from the final battle I fought alongside Marshal Lin."

At that time, we received intelligence that a small group of Western Xinjiang demons would infiltrate Great Xia from Demon Valley. Commander Lin planned to personally lead us to kill the demons.

To our utter surprise, when we arrived at the scene, we discovered that it wasn't just a small group of demons, but an entire legion of demons!

We were surrounded by the Demon Legion, and Lin Shuai chose to cover our retreat in order to protect us.

We fought our way out, but out of all our brothers, only three survived. I was one of them, and Lin Shuai…”

At this point, Zhou Ao, a man who was 1.9 meters tall, was already in tears.

"It's all because of us! We're useless! Otherwise, Lin Shuai wouldn't have been killed by those damned demons while protecting us!"

But I just can't understand why, since Marshal Lin sacrificed his life for the country and the four young marshals did the same, some people still framed them and wronged them.

If Marshal Lin really colluded with the enemy and betrayed his country, how could he have died at the hands of that demon? Were those so-called high-ranking officials brainless?

Zhou Ao became more and more agitated as he spoke, to the point that his recently stabilized injuries showed signs of relapse.

Lin Fan's face darkened. "I have to ask Uncle Long why he kept the truth from me!"

"Young Marshal, please calm down. The Palace Master must have his reasons; he probably doesn't want you to worry too much."

After all, this matter involves too many things. If you find out, you might do something irreversible in your anxiety.

Sigh, it's all my fault. I didn't think it through; it's only now that I've realized it!

Zhou Ao sighed, looking remorseful.

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I understand everything you're saying, and I can also understand Uncle Long's good intentions."

However, I am still very angry because doing so will only put me in a very passive position!

I need to find Uncle Long and get to the bottom of this. At the very least, I need to know how far he's gotten in his investigation.

"By the way, A'ao, you just said that this case is still unresolved. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be able to drag on indefinitely, right?"

Zhou Ao nodded with a bitter expression: "Young Marshal, you're right. There's only one month left until the final verdict in this case."

If no strong evidence can be found within a month to clear Lin Shuai and his group of suspicion, then Lin Shuai and his group will be labeled as spies who colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, and permanently branded with shame!

This matter will be reported nationwide, the Lin family's assets will be confiscated, and even you... may face imprisonment!

Every word Zhou Ao said was like a knife stabbing into Lin Fan's heart, and what he said was an undeniable truth that Lin Fan could not escape!

"A month?" Lin Fan took a deep breath.

Time is too tight. He knows nothing about potential enemies, and just thinking about it gives him a headache.

Moreover, as Zhou Ao just mentioned, since his father and brother's incident, the Shence Army has been implicated, not only disbanded but also scattered to various military regions.

Among them, most of Lin Zongyao's close confidants were discharged from the military early.

This targeting is far too obvious!

No, he must build his own team; otherwise, fighting alone will inevitably lead to defeat.

Thinking of this, he said to Zhou Ao with a serious expression, "Zhou Ao, I would like to ask you to do something for me."

Zhou Ao's expression changed, and he said, "Young Marshal, I am your subordinate. Please feel free to give me any orders. There is no need to be so polite."

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony! Ah Ao, I need you to contact those disbanded Shence Army veterans immediately and have them all gather in Tianhai."

Furthermore, I have already subdued the Black Dragon Gang of Tianhai. I hope you can put in the effort to transform them into a force capable of fighting tough battles.

As soon as Lin Fan finished speaking, Zhou Ao's face lit up with joy, and he said, "Young Marshal, you're planning a major operation to overthrow the Great Xia's leadership? That's fantastic!"

Lin Fan looked helpless and said, "A'ao, can you calm down a little? This isn't ancient society anymore, where you can overthrow a feudal dynasty by gathering a peasant army."

We're facing planes, missiles, and nuclear bombs—how could we possibly win? All I want is to build our own power base, so that we can at least put up a fight against the enemy's relentless advance.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ao was visibly disappointed and said, "Alright, Young Marshal is right. I was too impulsive. I'll go take care of it now! Don't worry, I will definitely complete the mission perfectly and won't let you down!"

After exchanging contact information, Zhou Ao left in a hurry and quickly disappeared from Lin Fan's sight.

Lin Fan also left the villa and hurriedly arrived at the military base.

After revealing the Dragon God Token, he easily entered the base.

He hadn't walked far when he saw Long Tiangang and Wang Badao playing chess in a small pavilion.

Long Tiangang listened to the advice and began to live the life of a normal elderly person.

Wang Badao was the first to sense Lin Fan's arrival. He quickly turned around and shouted to Lin Fan, "Lin Fan, you've come at the right time! This old dragon knows I'm bad at chess, but he still wants to play chess with me. I've lost to him 12 times already!"

"It's your turn. You help me kill him. You'll wipe him out completely!"

Wang Badao not only spoke, but also ran up to pull Lin Fan.

Lin Fan didn't refuse and was pulled to sit opposite Long Tiangang.

Long Tiangang's lips curled up slightly as he said, "Old Wang, so what if you lose? Why bother calling in outside help? Aren't you afraid of losing face?"

You want Lin Fan to help you get revenge? Don't you think about it? Chess players get better with age. Do you think Lin Fan's chess skills are better than mine?

Watch me casually move a few steps and I'll slaughter this kid without leaving a trace! Lin Fan, you can go first, come on!

Twenty minutes later, Long Tiangang looked at his lone old general with a bitter face and said, "Lin Fan, I know my chess skills may not be that great, but you've really gone too far by completely wiping me out, haven't you?"

Lin Fan picked up the "rook" and placed it heavily on the chessboard, saying calmly, "Checkmate, dead piece!"

Wang Badao frowned slightly; his intuition told him that Lin Fan clearly harbored resentment.

"Lin Fan, what happened? If you're a man, just say it straight, stop beating around the bush!"

Lin Fan let out a soft breath and said, "Alright, then I'll get straight to the point. Uncle Long, Uncle Wang, can you tell me why our Lin family, a family full of loyal martyrs, has been labeled as traitors?"

How did my father and brothers sell out the country? Could you tell me in detail?
