Chapter 130 Speak of the devil

“It’s you!”

As Chu Fan walked in, the two hall masters stared in horror and quickly retreated.

They were still investigating Chu Fan’s identity with all their might and hadn’t obtained any useful information, yet the person had come knocking on their door.

Feeling the oppressive aura emanating from Chu Fan, the faces of the two hall masters grew even more grim as they exchanged glances.

Wasn’t he just a Zongshi?

This was no Zongshi, but at least a half-step Grandmaster.

Enduring the pressure, the two hall masters mentally cursed Mo Shiqian’s ancestors for eight generations.

He had said Chu Fan was a Zongshi, and the Dragon Tiger Hall had subconsciously treated him as such. Thus, they had sent three Zongshi, thinking it would be more than enough to deal with one.

Who would have thought their assessment was wrong.

Had they known Chu Fan was a half-step Grandmaster, the Dragon Tiger Hall would never have dared to send people to Shan Hai City to cause trouble, even if Mo Shiqian had been beaten to death.

The two were not fools; they knew Chu Fan was furious because they had gone to find his aunt.

The Fifth Hall Master immediately said with a smile, “Brother, we were impulsive earlier. Can you give us a chance to sit down and talk properly?”

Although they were both Zongshi, they didn’t dare to expect to defeat Chu Fan, who was a half-step Grandmaster.

When you know the times, you are a wise man.

At this moment, the two only wanted to resolve the conflict and avoid any clashes with Chu Fan.

“No!”

Chu Fan’s cold voice left no room for negotiation.

How dare they think of harming his aunt? Even though they hadn’t succeeded, he couldn’t tolerate it.

Chu Fan knew very well that if he hadn’t been prepared and arranged for someone to protect his aunt, she would have been captured by them by now.

It was also because of his own formidable strength.

If he were truly just a Zongshi, would these two still be so polite?

They would have long since trampled him underfoot.

Therefore, once the thought had crossed their minds, it wasn’t as simple as wanting to reconcile.

To reconcile, you must show your strength.

The atmosphere in the room became heavy after the word “No” was uttered.

They had no chance of winning in a fight.

The Sixth Hall Master, after secretly assessing the situation, stepped forward and said calmly, “Young brother, you are very strong, and we are indeed no match for you!”

“But don’t forget, you are only one person, and we have the Dragon Tiger Hall behind us.”

“We are willing to compensate for our previous mistake and promise to immediately withdraw from Shan Hai City.”

The Sixth Hall Master was not foolish; he knew that continuous concession would only make Chu Fan think they were easy to bully, so he directly brought up the Dragon Tiger Hall, hoping to make Chu Fan hesitate.

Of course, he also understood that Chu Fan would not back down just by saying a few words.

He could only try to appease Chu Fan’s anger through compensation.

Chu Fan’s brow twitched slightly, “You want to compensate?”

Seeing that there was room for negotiation, the Fifth Hall Master said, “Name your price!”

As long as there was room for discussion, anything could be talked about.

Chu Fan chuckled, “Sorry, the compensation I want isn’t money!”

Money, did he need it?

The two hall masters exchanged confused glances, not knowing what else could be offered as compensation besides money.

“Then what do you want as compensation?” the Sixth Hall Master asked.

“Your lives!”

Upon hearing this, the faces of the two hall masters immediately turned grim.

In the end, a confrontation was unavoidable.

As Zongshi powerhouses, they would never be people who would wait for death.

Realizing that there was no room for negotiation, the two exchanged a glance and lunged at Chu Fan simultaneously.

With no room for negotiation, they could only fight together and carve out a path to survival for themselves.

However, the two had overestimated their strength.

Facing Chu Fan, who was quite angry, the two hall masters fell to the ground within moments.

Completely losing the ability to resist, despair and terror filled their eyes.

Just now, they had thought Chu Fan was merely a half-step Grandmaster.

Only when they actually fought did they realize how mistaken they were.

Their opponent was a true Grandmaster.

Amidst their desperate cries, Chu Fan stomped his foot, caving in their chests.

Then, Chu Fan took out his phone and called Ji Ningyue, “Didn’t the Dragon Tiger Hall send three people?”

“Check where the other one went!”

Three minutes later, Ji Ningyue sent over Wang Yangyan’s whereabouts.

Looking at where the person was heading, Chu Fan’s brow twitched, but without further thought, he immediately set off.

Qin Family.

*Chih…*

The screech of tires echoed.

A car stopped directly in front of the main gate of the Qin family.

The Qin family guards saw this, frowned, and then walked forward with dejected faces, preparing to ask the driver if he was blind and didn’t know whose gate this was?

With so much empty space around, why block the entrance? Was he tired of living?

*Bang…*

The guard slapped the hood and shouted, “Don’t you know…”

Before he could finish speaking, his throat felt like it was being gripped by an invisible hand.

Because, behind the windshield, a pair of cold eyes were staring at him.

The guard began to tremble uncontrollably.

Although the face of the person in the car was blurry, the guard recognized him as the adult whom even the family head treated with respect.

Qin Tian was a meticulous person. Although Chu Fan had never visited the Qin family, he had long ago had all the personnel in the Qin family view Chu Fan’s photo and informed everyone that no matter where they saw this person in the future, not only should they not provoke him, but they should also hurry forward to greet him.

At the gate, another guard saw his companion suddenly fall silent and walked up to inquire what he was up to. By then, Chu Fan had already gotten out of the car.

Seeing Chu Fan, this guard was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his eyes vigorously. After confirming he wasn’t mistaken, he secretly let out a sound and rushed inside to inform Qin Tian.

“I can’t park here?”

Chu Fan asked as he passed the guard in front of the car.

“You can park, you can park…”

The guard nodded repeatedly.

In the inner courtyard of the Qin family, Qin Tian was drinking tea and reminiscing with Wang Yangyan, discussing their insights on the path of martial arts.

While they were engrossed in their conversation, a guard suddenly rushed in.

“Master…”

“You scoundrel! Don’t you see I’m receiving guests?”

“Get out!”

Qin Tian glared angrily at the guard, feeling that the guard’s actions were rash and might leave a bad impression on Wang Yangyan.

For any other matter, the guard would have endured it.

But Qin Tian had long ago instructed that any matter related to Chu Fan, no matter when, must be reported to him immediately.

Therefore, despite being reprimanded, the guard continued, “Master, that person has arrived.”

Qin Tian, in a foul mood, backhanded a teacup at the guard.

“Didn’t you hear what I said? I told you to get out! Today, I won’t see anyone, not even the Emperor of Heaven!”

The guard was miserable. He knew Chu Fan was coming in, and if he heard this, he might get angry. Enduring Qin Tian’s gaze, which seemed like he wanted to kill him, he repeated, “Master, that person, the one you told us to remember.”

What?

Qin Tian, who was furious, suddenly stood up and asked with wide, excited eyes, “Is it really him? Did he come to the Qin family?”

The guard quickly nodded.

Qin Tian was excited, his face flushed. He laughed heartily at Wang Yangyan and said, “Brother, speak of the devil, and he appears.”

“Let’s go, let’s go, I’ll take you to meet the esteemed person I mentioned earlier.”

“Whether you can gain the person’s favor depends entirely on your own performance!”

“Hahaha!”

Wang Yangyan burst into laughter, saying joyfully, “Then I thank Brother Qin in advance!”

Then, Wang Yangyan excitedly followed Qin Tian to greet the newcomer.
