Such a scene.
If the people outside the door saw it, who knows what expression they would be startled with.
"My lord, arriving in Shanhai City for the first time, I implore your lordship for permission. The Qin family will serve you!"
Opportunity lost is never regained.
Qin Tian had no doubt about Chu Fan's origin and did not want to miss the chance to connect with a hidden family.
Therefore, what was kneeling worth?
As long as he could obtain the method to reach the summit, let alone kneel, he would not hesitate even if Chu Fan asked him to kowtow.
This scene was exactly as Chu Fan had planned.
However, one cannot get too greedy.
He said casually, "Mr. Qin, there's no need for this!"
"I'm not one for showing off, so let's keep things normal!"
"As long as you can help me, you'll definitely be rewarded!"
If he wanted Qin Tian to serve him obediently, making promises was essential.
A new plan had already formed in Chu Fan's mind from the moment he saw Qin Tian guessing his identity incorrectly.
Martial arts families had strong pride.
Forcing them to reveal Lord Zhang would be difficult.
Chu Fan suddenly thought, if the hard approach doesn't work, try the soft one.
Approach Qin Tian with a different identity, and then slowly lure Lord Zhang out by arousing curiosity.
This way, without any effort, Qin Tian would actively seek out Lord Zhang.
This plan was excellent!
"Good, good, good!"
"Thank you, my lord, for giving the Qin family this opportunity!"
"As long as we are in Shanhai City, no matter what help your lordship needs, the Qin family will wholeheartedly assist!"
Chu Fan stood up and nodded, reminding him, "My identity is a bit sensitive!"
"Therefore, regarding the matter I just mentioned to you, I don't want a third person to know!"
Qin Tian quickly nodded.
"I see you've reached a bottleneck. Take this calligraphy back and study it carefully. Although it won't be of great help to you, it can still improve your strength to a certain extent!"
"Thank you, my lord, for the calligraphy!"
Qin Tian quickly put away the calligraphy, which looked ordinary but contained a strong killing intent.
He had already realized that this calligraphy was no simple matter.
Even if Chu Fan hadn't said so, he would have asked for it or secretly taken it.
"That's all for today. There are too many miscellaneous people around, so I'll be leaving now!"
"Tonight, you can find me at Shanhai Pavilion!"
Before Qin Tian could respond, Chu Fan's figure flashed, stirring up a gust of wind.
After the room became quiet, Chu Fan's figure had already disappeared.
"So strong, so incredibly strong!"
"The Qin family's opportunity has arrived!"
Qin Tian was once again awestruck by Chu Fan's strength, and his resolve to follow Chu Fan and serve him well became even firmer.
Outside the house.
Everyone was waiting anxiously. Suddenly, the door opened.
Eager to go home and comprehend the killing intent within the calligraphy, Qin Tian said indifferently, "Everyone, I have matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first."
"Zhengqi, take good care of everyone!"
As soon as Qin Tian left, the crowd in the courtyard burst into an uproar.
"That kid, he wouldn't have died, would he?"
"Only President Qin came out. He's definitely dead!"
The patriarchs of the other three martial arts families rushed to the door and entered the house.
They did not see the scene of a corpse on the ground as they had imagined.
In the center of the room, there was only a pile of small wooden fragments.
There were also members of other martial arts families present. To prevent them from discovering anything and competing with the Qin family for the privilege of serving Chu Fan,
Before coming out, Qin Tian deliberately crushed the collapsed table with his own hands, making it impossible for anyone to discover the killing intent that had seeped onto the tabletop through the Xuan paper.
"Where is he?"
"Yes, where did that kid go? Why can't I see him?"
After Guan Hongyun and Shangguan Hongyu exchanged glances, anxiety flickered in their eyes.
It wasn't that they didn't believe in Chu Fan's strength, but Qin Tian was also not simple; he was the strongest in Shanhai.
Just as the two were anxious, Guan Hongyun's phone vibrated.
"I have matters to attend to, so I'm leaving. You can make your own arrangements!"
Seeing that his lord was unharmed, the two influential figures laughed heartily, drawing confused glances from the suspicious crowd.
They had come precisely to accompany Chu Fan.
Since he had left, the two influential figures had no intention of staying any longer.
Outside the villa.
A car suddenly drove up and stopped at the entrance.
"Xuanxuan, what exactly are you doing?"
"Didn't you cause this trouble?"
"And now you're worried about him being in danger?"
Zhao Jiayu looked at her sister with great confusion.
Earlier, Nan Baixuan had suddenly called her to pick her up. On the way, she had told her that Chu Fan had gotten into big trouble and had offended many influential people.
But halfway there, Nan Baixuan suddenly asked her to turn back.
Nan Baixuan gazed inside the entrance, her expression worried.
"I, I..."
The little girl had a bad temper and held grudges but had no malicious intent.
Having caused trouble for Chu Fan, she thought about it on the way back and realized that he was her cousin. If he were killed by the Qin family, her mother would be devastated.
Feeling reluctant, she appeared here again.
This was also why Chu Fan hadn't been too angry with her provocations.
If she had truly meant harm, what difference would being a cousin make?
She would have long since let him know that there were always people better than you and heavens beyond the heavens.
"Xuanxuan, you know very well who is inside. Even if you come back, you can't save him!"
Zhao Jiayu couldn't understand what was going on with Nan Baixuan lately.
Every time she mentioned her eccentric cousin Chu Fan, she would speak haltingly.
When asked what happened, she would shake her head and say nothing.
Yet, her expression clearly indicated that something was wrong.
Nan Baixuan took a deep breath to suppress her nervousness, gritted her teeth, and said, "I don't care about that much, I'm going in to take a look!"
"You crazy girl, you must not get into any trouble!"
As Nan Baixuan walked, she prayed silently.
Upon entering the depths of the villa, she couldn't find Chu Fan but only saw the table that had been clearly damaged by brute force on the ground. The little girl's face suddenly turned pale.
The broken table indicated that a fight had occurred.
Since Chu Fan was not present, he must have been beaten to death and dragged away.
"Little girl, why are you still here?"
The middle-aged man noticed Nan Baixuan and asked curiously, "Where is your cousin?"
"I don't know!"
Nan Baixuan shook her head, "Wasn't he here?"
...
After learning that Chu Fan had been left in the house by Qin Tian after displaying his calligraphy and then had seemingly vanished into thin air.
Nan Baixuan's eyes reddened, and tears involuntarily streamed down her face.
She didn't know Qin Tian very well, but she had heard some rumors.
He was the strongest in Shanhai City, with strength comparable to the Five Great War Emperors.
Such a person could easily kill someone with a single blow.
At this moment, Nan Baixuan was certain that Chu Fan had been killed by Qin Tian.
To avoid alarming others, and his body had been disposed of.
The sad little girl immediately rushed out of the villa crying, asking Zhao Jiayu to take her back to Wanshu Mountain.
Wanshu Mountain Villa.
As soon as Nan Baixuan entered the door, she burst into tears.
Qin Xue and her husband came out of the study upon hearing the commotion.
"Xuanxuan, what's wrong? What happened?"
Nan Zi'an asked anxiously.
"Mom, I was wrong!"
Nan Baixuan knelt before Qin Xue.
"Xuanxuan, what's wrong? Did you cause trouble?"
Since Nan Baixuan was arrogant and never admitted her mistakes, her crying and admitting fault at this moment made Qin Xue extremely nervous.
"Wuwuwu..."
Nan Baixuan didn't know how to explain the truth.
Qin Xue pulled Nan Baixuan up from the ground.
"Xuanxuan, what exactly happened, tell me quickly!"
"No matter what trouble you've caused, just tell me!"
Nan Baixuan raised her hand to wipe her tears, gritted her teeth, and said, "Cousin Chu Fan, he, he's dead!"
Boom...
Qin Xue's face turned pale, and she staggered back.
"Who said I'm dead?"
