**Chapter 114: The Web of Lies**

Chen Beixuan's gaze pierced through the darkness, his mind reeling with the revelation. Xuan Yuchen, his supposed sister, was standing before him, a smug smile plastered on her face.

"So, you're the one who's been playing me all along," Chen Beixuan's voice was laced with venom, his fists clenched in rage.

Xuan Yuchen's smile never wavered. "Ah, Beixuan, you're still so naive. I'm not playing you, I'm fighting for our family's survival."

Chen Beixuan's eyes narrowed. "Survival? You call this survival? You're the one who got our family's name dragged through the mud, who betrayed our trust and destroyed our reputation!"

Xuan Yuchen's expression turned icy. "You're just a foolish little boy, Beixuan. You don't know the first thing about politics or power. I did what was necessary to protect our family's interests."

Chen Beixuan's face twisted in anger. "You're not our sister, are you? You're just a fake, a pawn in some game of power and manipulation!"

Xuan Yuchen's eyes flashed with annoyance, but she maintained her composure. "Enough, Beixuan. You're just making things harder for yourself. Come with me, and I'll show you the truth."

Chen Beixuan's instincts screamed at him to run, to get as far away from this woman as possible. But his curiosity got the better of him. What was she hiding? What secrets lay behind her words?

He followed her, his senses on high alert, as she led him through the winding streets of the city. They eventually arrived at a nondescript building, its doors guarded by burly men in black.

"Welcome to the inner sanctum," Xuan Yuchen said, a sly smile spreading across her face. "Here, you'll learn the truth about our family's past and our true power."

Chen Beixuan's grip on his Nine Star Body's power tightened, his heart racing with anticipation. He was about to uncover a web of secrets that would change everything he thought he knew about his family and himself.

But as he stepped into the building, he couldn't shake off the feeling that he was walking into a trap, one that would have far-reaching consequences for his future and his very survival.
