At this moment, Fu Yunche was chained and unable to move.
He thought of Jiang Huai'an, who had been controlled before he fell into a coma, and Chu Yu, who had gone missing. He felt anxious and his face darkened as he angrily shouted, "Who is behind all this? Get out here! Otherwise, even if you catch me, I will find a way to drag you out and make you pay a heavy price."
The domineering and authoritative words spread, and soon after, Daoist Xuanji led Fu Sisi in through the door.
When Fu Sisi saw Fu Yunche being captured, her eyes were full of excitement: "Master, you are amazing. After controlling Jiang Huai'an, you used him to set a trap and captured Fu Yunche. You also turned those metaphysicians he brought into puppets and slaves. In this way, we have more manpower. This is a double win."
Xuanji Daoist snorted lightly and said slyly, "I originally wanted him to bring Tao Susu and Huang Dalu, but I didn't expect him to bring some metaphysicians instead. That's fine, it gives us more help."
Fu Sisi chuckled and said shrewdly, "No matter who he brings, we won't lose out. Besides, Tao Susu and Huang Dalu will be caught by us sooner or later."
Fu Yunche looked at Xuanji Daoist with a gloomy gaze and asked directly, "Who are you, and why are you targeting us like this?"
Xuanji Daoist replied coldly, "The Fu family is my enemy. I schemed against you to seek revenge."
Seeing how tightly he was wrapped up, Fu Yunche's eyes flashed with disdain: "If you want revenge, then do it openly and honestly. You are so timid and cowardly, wearing a mask to cover your true face. You are like a rat in the gutter, insidious and self-deprecating. It's really laughable."
Hearing this, Fu Sisi was about to scold him angrily when Fu Yunche glared at her coldly: "I'm talking to your master. What are you barking about, you lackey?"
The icy words, carrying an extremely strong aura, startled Fu Sisi, causing her to tremble and quickly shut her mouth. She was amazed in her heart, thinking, "My God, even though Fu Yunche has become a prisoner, his aura is still so strong."
Xuanji Daoist looked at Fu Yunche, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "As expected of the head of the Fu family, even when imprisoned, he will never lose face."
He turned to Fu Sisi and said, "You go out first, I want to talk to him alone for a while."
Fu Sisi nodded and turned to leave.
After Fu Sisi left, the surroundings became quiet.
Fu Yunche looked sharply at Xuanji Daoist and said in a sharp tone, "Since there are no outsiders here, you don't need to hide anything."
Xuanji Daoist raised an eyebrow: "Fine, since you're already on the verge of death anyway, I'll let you die knowing why."
He removed the black mask from his face, revealing his true appearance.
Fu Yunche stared intently, his face filled with shock: "You...you're Third Uncle?!"
That face looked exactly like his third uncle, Fu Minghe.
Madam Fu has three sons and one daughter. Her eldest son is Fu Yunche's biological father and currently resides abroad. Her second son, Fu Tongbai, previously opposed Fu Yunche at every turn in order to seize the position of the group's leader. He even poisoned Madam Fu and used puppetry to curse her. After the matter was exposed, Madam Fu imprisoned him and he has not been released to this day.
The youngest son, Fu Minghe, has loved art since childhood and is a painter. He lives abroad most of the year and rarely comes back.
In everyone's impression, he was in poor health, rarely appeared in public, and was a marginal figure in the Fu family.
In the past year, he said he had been seriously ill and unable to travel far, so he had not returned to China. Even though his mother was in poor health, he had not come or gone back to visit her.
The old lady was very disappointed in him.
When Xuanji Daoist saw that he recognized him, a mocking sneer appeared on his lips, and he readily admitted, "Yes, I am your third uncle, Fu Minghe."
Seeing that he admitted it, Fu Yunche became angry: "The Fu family has treated you well. Even though you haven't returned to the country to visit your grandparents all these years, they still think of you often. You actually claimed to be an enemy of the Fu family and even plotted against me and Chu Yu. You are such an ingrate."
Hearing this, Fu Minghe's suppressed grievances and anger surged up, and he retorted angrily: "If the Fu family is really so good to me, why don't they hand over the business to me and let me control the group's wealth? Instead of guiding me to learn some art, to become a mediocre rich young master, to become a marginal figure in the Fu family, to be disregarded, and even to be looked down upon by the Fu family's collateral branches."
You are the eldest brother's child, entrusted with important responsibilities from a young age, destined to inherit the family fortune from birth. How could you possibly understand the bitterness in the hearts of those of us who were abandoned from birth?
Hearing his complaints, Fu Yunche's eyes were filled with disappointment, and he said incisively, "I suppose you have already found out about your background."
You are not actually your grandmother's biological child. Your biological father was my grandfather's driver. Your biological father died protecting my grandfather. At that time, your mother was pregnant with you. After hearing the news, she was so shocked that she had a difficult childbirth and passed away after giving birth to you.
Your grandparents took pity on you and brought you home, claiming you were their youngest son. They've always treated you like their own child, showering you with resources and ensuring you a life of wealth and luxury.
I never expected that you would not only be ungrateful, but also blame your grandparents for not passing on all the family property to you, and therefore hate them, and even the entire Fu family. You are truly shameless!
Faced with his contempt and reprimand, Fu Minghe felt no remorse. His eyes were gloomy as he gritted his teeth and said, "I've known about my background for a long time. My biological father died saving the old man, and my biological mother also died because of it. The old man owes me two lives."
They took me back as their own son, so they should value me more, instead of treating me as an outsider whom everyone looks down on. Some even want me dead.
From childhood to adulthood, I've endured countless cold stares and even been assassinated. If I hadn't been lucky enough to cleverly feign being a sickly, unambitious person, I probably wouldn't have even grown up.
Fu Yunche frowned. So, his love of art, his desire to become a painter without ambition, and even his poor health and settlement abroad for recuperation were all to deceive the Fu family and others.
He did this simply to play dumb and take advantage of the situation.
Fu Yunche sneered: "You really are insidious. You must have been planning this for many years to get to this point."
He thought to himself that if his grandparents knew he was such a heartless person, they would be heartbroken, after all, they had treated him with genuine kindness.
Fu Minghe glanced at him coldly, thinking of all the years of hard work and perseverance, and said with a hint of bitterness and pride, "Yes, I have been planning for all of this for many years. I have also been secretly studying Taoist magic and mystical arts. Fortunately, I am quite talented, and my cultivation has increased greatly over the years, and I have gained the ability to control the whole situation."
Fu Yunche's sharp gaze swept over him, and he retorted sarcastically, "You're practicing the heretical path, aren't you? As far as I know, your body isn't suited for orthodox cultivation; you can only practice the heretical path."
