Hall Master Zheng and the others had no idea that all their schemes had already been overheard by Brandon Jiang.

This conversation confirmed Brandon's previous suspicions.

As expected, the three deputy hall masters were indeed demonic cultivators, and they had joined the Brotherhood Hall to seize power.

However, their progress was faster than he had imagined; they were already prepared to assassinate Frank Fan.

If everything went smoothly, they might actually succeed.

But now that he knew about their plan, ten days from now could be the perfect opportunity to capture all three deputy hall masters in one fell swoop.

Moreover, if he could save Frank Fan during this crisis, he would surely gain his favor, making it easier to win him over.

"Wait a minute, if I calculate the time right, ten days should be enough for me to reach the peak of the fifth level of Qi Refining, ready to break through at any moment."

Brandon's heart stirred again. If he could use one of the deputy hall masters as a sacrificial furnace, he could directly break through to the sixth level of Qi Refining.

It would be killing three birds with one stone.

With this in mind, Brandon quietly left and returned to his residence to focus on his cultivation.

Days passed by, and Brandon was either cultivating or monitoring the movements of the three deputy hall masters to prevent them from acting prematurely.

During this period, Brandon never saw Frank Fan, which seemed to confirm Hall Master Zheng and the others' analysis that Frank was indeed on the verge of a breakthrough.

Although he hadn't seen Frank, by tracking Hall Master Zheng and the others, Brandon had already discovered Frank's exact residence.

As long as Hall Master Zheng and the others headed in that direction, he would rush over immediately.

Finally, ten days had passed.

Early in the morning, Hall Master Zheng and the others made their move. They first took out a large number of sacrificial furnaces they had prepared, began absorbing power and fortune, and accumulated spiritual energy in their bodies, making the final preparations for the battle.

After finishing, they quietly headed towards Frank Fan's seclusion chamber.

But Brandon was faster than them. He arrived first and concealed his presence outside Frank's seclusion chamber, waiting quietly.

As he waited, Brandon's curiosity and suspicion grew.

Hall Master Zheng and the others' plot to seize power was well-known. Could it be that Old Hall Master Fan was completely unaware?

Did he really dare to break through under the watchful eyes of these three?

Could this be a trap? Was he not really in seclusion but instead luring Hall Master Zheng and the others into a trap?

With this thought in mind, Brandon couldn't help but probe outside the chamber, trying to figure out what was going on inside.

Unfortunately, he didn't know any scouting Daoist Arts and couldn't discern anything.

Before long, Hall Master Zheng and the others arrived. They didn't notice Brandon lurking in the shadows. Instead, they scrutinized the door of the chamber, their expressions filled with greed, caution, and fear.

They didn't choose to break in directly but tried to test the waters first.

Deputy Hall Master Jia stepped up to the door and respectfully said in a loud voice, "Hall Master, some major events have occurred in the hall recently. I must report them to you. Please come out of seclusion."

The three waited for a long time but heard no response from inside the chamber.

"No response. Is he really in seclusion or testing us?" Deputy Hall Master Jia looked at the other two.

The three brothers were no fools and naturally had their concerns.

Deputy Hall Master Fu snorted coldly and said, "That old thing has indeed long suspected our rebellious intentions. But although he is at the eighth level of Qi Refining, he can't fight all three of us at once. He would exhaust his spiritual energy first, which is why he had to watch us grow stronger."

"He knows that if this continues, we will eventually usurp him. He has no choice but to make a last-ditch effort to break through despite his old age."

"In my opinion, the old thing has at most set up a few traps as a precaution. If he had any means to capture us all in one go, he would have used them long ago. Why wait until now?"

The other two nodded in agreement.

Frank Fan and the three brothers had been in a stalemate until now because the former had no means to deal with them.

Even if he had some preparations, what could he do? At most, he would make them suffer a bit.

Worst case scenario, if they couldn't defeat the old thing, they could always run away.

"Let's attack. The biggest trouble would be facing him head-on. If we delay and let the old thing break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, that would be a real problem!" Hall Master Zheng shouted.

Deputy Hall Masters Fu and Jia nodded, and the three of them simultaneously unleashed their techniques, instantly shattering the door of the chamber.

The path ahead was clear, with an eerie depth.

But having come this far, the three had no room for retreat. Without hesitation, they charged in!

Brandon followed closely behind, entering the chamber's passage.

However, not long after they entered, a series of rumbling sounds erupted behind them. Large stones fell from the passage, not to crush them but to seal the exit tightly.

This sudden change startled Hall Master Zheng and the others, but soon, a resolute look flashed in their eyes.

"So what if our retreat is cut off? We'll just kill the old thing and find another way out!" Hall Master Zheng's eyes flashed with a murderous gleam.

For cultivators, no matter how many stones blocked the way, as long as they were ordinary stones, breaking through them was just a matter of time.

Brandon, trapped in the chamber with them, wasn't too worried either. He silently followed their steps.

Finally, they reached the end of the long tunnel, where a secluded chamber buried deep underground appeared before them.

The chamber wasn't large but was meticulously clean. The candles on the walls illuminated the room brightly and warmly.

An elderly man with white hair and a slender build sat cross-legged on a mat in the center of the chamber.

He appeared to be in a state between sleep and wakefulness, as if dozing off.

Having just used the sacrificial furnaces and able to clearly sense the spiritual energy in the air, the three's faces darkened.

Hall Master Zheng immediately cursed, "I knew you weren't honest, old thing. You haven't broken through at all!"

"Did you lure us here because you're tired of living and want to make this your burial ground?"

The other two stood ready, their eyes filled with killing intent, prepared for a bloody battle.

In the small chamber, the tension was palpable.

Finally, Frank Fan slowly opened his eyes. His murky gaze fell on the three and he said calmly, "Demon Eye, Demon Heart, Demon Claw, these are the names you Blood Demon Trio use when traveling outside. Am I wrong?"

The three were initially stunned, then sneered in unison, "That's right. Since you know our true identities, you should also know how glorious our battle records are!"

"We've killed even the seventh-level Qi Refining disciples of the Righteous Alliance. You can't be stronger than those geniuses from great sects. You can't possibly be our match!"

"Old thing, are you ready to die?"

Frank Fan nodded and said, "I am aware of that. However, I didn't trap you here to kill you but to perish together with you!"

"You should know that if a cultivator self-destructs, the spiritual energy within will sweep through everything, far exceeding the cultivator's full-strength attack."

"In such a confined space, you three will have nowhere to hide and may all fall here."

As soon as he said this, the arrogant expressions of the Blood Demon Trio turned incredibly stiff.
