Chapter 850: Chapter 850: The Tower’s Location

"Stop! Stop! I’ll just tell you!"

He worried that if he didn’t speak up, Ning Fan would really kill him.

Seeing Ning Caiwen relent, Ning Fan drew his Spirit Short Sword, staring at him coldly, "Speak, what exactly happened?"

Ning Caiwen clenched his teeth, propped himself up on the ground, and shrank back, creating some distance between himself and Ning Fan before he solemnly said, "Your father, back then... he wasn’t actually resisting a powerful enemy, but... someone from Kunlun came to suppress him."

"Kunlun?"

Ning Fan narrowed his eyes, suddenly recalling what Su Qingcheng had mentioned, about the Su Family wanting to marry her off to a young Sect Master of Kunlun.

It seemed that the eight major households of the Capital City all had some connections with Kunlun, more or less.

"Yes, back then people from Kunlun came, and they suppressed your father, and the place of suppression was in that tower," Ning Caiwen said through gritted teeth, "Why do you know about the tower?"

"You don’t need to worry about that," Ning Fan responded coldly. "A member of the Ning Family was suppressed, and you as the Family Head did nothing?"

Ning Caiwen’s eyes widened as he struggled to speak, "This... The people from Kunlun are very strong, we were no match for them, we could only accept their arrangements..."

After a pause, Ning Fan scoffed coldly, "So you are saying, back then you didn’t actually confront Kunlun directly, but instead you helped them, suppressed my father? Even... betrayed him?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Caiwen fell silent.

His reaction undoubtedly corroborated Ning Fan’s words from the side.

The fact was indeed so, when Kunlun’s people came to the Ning Family that year, Ning Caiwen did not choose to help.

Instead, he betrayed Ning Potian, directly pushed him out, and made him a sacrificial lamb.

"You really..."

Ning Fan stood up, his gaze towards the people of the Ning Family full of disappointment.

Such a so-called powerful family, when faced with a crisis, their first reaction turned out to be to abandon their own clan members.

It was utterly ridiculous!

"You, you just don’t understand..." Ning Caiwen was still forcefully arguing, "You have no idea how powerful the people in Kunlun are!"

"I only know that if my family members are threatened and suppressed," Ning Fan stated coldly, "I would never abandon them."

Over the years, Ning Fan had always adhered to this principle.

No matter what dangerous situations arose, he would absolutely never abandon friends and family.

If one had to disregard friends and family just to survive or gain more benefits,

what difference would there be between them and swine or dogs?

Seeing Ning Caiwen about to speak again, Ning Fan shook his head and said solemnly, "I don’t want to hear these explanations from you. Tell me, where is that tower?"

His purpose in coming to the Capital City was simple, to find his father and rescue him.

Ning Caiwen, although unwilling to tell Ning Fan, the latter’s earlier violent demeanor left him with no courage to contradict Ning Fan at this moment.

"That tower... only I know, it’s in a mountain in the Capital City."

"In the mountains?" Ning Fan frowned, "Why doesn’t anyone else know?"

"Because that tower was made by the people of Kunlun, and it’s said to be surrounded by some sort of barrier, which ordinary people simply cannot detect," Ning Caiwen hurriedly explained, "I’m not lying to you! That barrier was also set up by the people of Kunlun!"

Ning Fan nodded, if it was as he said, then that made sense.

After all, he had searched all the towers in the Capital City and still found nothing.

According to Ning Caiwen’s claims, this tower was not literally in the Capital City, nor was it recorded, which was why it remained undiscovered.

"Tell me the location of the tower. If I find out you’re lying to me, you’re done for," Ning Fan warned with an icy gaze.

Ning Caiwen nodded vigorously, quickly fetched some paper and pen, and drew the location of the tower.

Ning Fan took the drawing, preparing to leave the Ning Family.

Before leaving, he glanced at Ning Caiwen deeply, scoffing coldly, "If that’s what this powerful family is like, even without the matter of my father, I would never choose to return to the clan."

With those words, he turned and strode away.

Watching Ning Fan’s retreating figure, the members of the Ning Family felt a deep-seated fear.

It was the first time someone had caused such a commotion at the Ning Family and then left smoothly.

"Family Head, why did you tell him the location?"

"Yes, Ning Potian was a disaster too!"

"If he releases Ning Potian, how could we possibly control the two of them when they join forces?"

Ning Caiwen sneered, teeth gritted, "Don’t worry, inside that tower is a master left behind by Kunlun’s people back then, a stronger warrior than any of our Patrons or even those found across the eight major households."

"If this kid really dares to go, then he’s as good as dead!"

Upon hearing this, the clan members of the Ning Family suddenly realized and laughed maliciously.

"Stop damn laughing! Can’t you see my leg? Hurry up and take me to get bandaged!"

The crowd then reacted, immediately lifting Ning Caiwen and swiftly taking him to have his wounds bandaged.

...

While Ning Fan was causing an uproar at the Ning Family, the Li Family was experiencing an unprecedented low.

Every face was shrouded in grim despair.
