Wu Jiaming was just a Martial Artist at the True Qi stage, and in front of Su Fan, he had no chance to resist.

However, Su Fan didn't kill him; he just captured him and then called Li Guanyun's assistant to come and take him away.

At the same time, Su Fan decided to make a risk investment.

In the internal conflict of the hidden Wu family, he sided with the direct line, 'Wu Guanyun'.

In the future, when dealing with his formidable enemies, the hidden Wu family would obviously be a powerful ally for him.

Li Guanyun's assistant quickly came to take Wu Jiaming, whose meridians had been sealed by Su Fan, away.

Not long after, Su Fan once again came to Li Guanyun's treatment room.

Helping him with medical treatment had one price, but becoming his ally and assisting him in gaining power was naturally another.

Li Guanyun was very pleased to see Su Fan again.

Because Su Fan had already stated his position, it meant he had completely sided with them.

But his smile soon froze.

Because while Su Fan was checking his pulse again, he made him feel the intensity of his True Qi.

Li Guanyun's smile instantly turned into shock, with even a hint of fear.

His surroundings seemed unguarded, but he actually had a security team on standby at all times.

Moreover, he had never thought of Su Fan as a dangerous person.

But now, he realized he was wrong!

Though hard to believe, Su Fan, who looked barely in his twenties, turned out to be a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Throughout his life, Li Guanyun had gone through ups and downs, experiencing numerous storms and waves.

He thought that at his age of over ninety, nothing could shock him anymore.

Yet at this moment, his face couldn't conceal his astonishment.

His heart was now surging with waves of shock.

His gaze towards Su Fan was filled with nothing but astonishment.

Compared to the utterly stunned Li Guanyun, Su Fan's demeanor was very calm.

He spoke lightly, "Old Li, I originally intended to remain neutral."

"But by treating you, I stood in opposition to Wu Jiaming and others."

"Since that's the case, I might as well collaborate well with you, Old Li."

Su Fan left it at that, not saying more, but waited for Li Guanyun to make a decision.

Li Guanyun naturally hoped Su Fan could become their ally.

He remained silent for a moment, then decided to speak candidly with Su Fan.

"The Wu family's direct line has three branches."

"The legacy of the first branch was lost in the chaos of the old society."

"In that chaotic period, the second branch also left China and went to North America."

"Only the third branch of the Wu family, my own lineage, persisted."

"However, within my lineage, my father and second uncle had some differences, and thus split into two."

While Li Guanyun spoke of these matters, Su Fan listened attentively.

Since he had decided to wade into these murky waters, the more he understood the situation, the better.

If Li Guanyun and his people succeeded, the help he'd receive would undoubtedly be substantial.

Li Guanyun reflected while calmly recounting these bygone days.

"During that war-torn era, the Wu family struggled to sustain itself."

"Later, after the war ended, the Wu family quickly recovered."

"However, the direct line of the third branch suffered many casualties during the war."

"In the end, only I remained as a Martial Arts Grandmaster."

"Unfortunately, I was negligent and trusted villains, allowing those who once depended on the Wu family to usurp power."

"Due to the influence of the Wu family's second branch in North America and my second uncle's faction, they didn't wipe us out completely."

"Yet, after my martial arts were crippled, the hidden Wu family in Shu fell into the hands of this group."
