Good words are hard to persuade a damned ghost!
After being spoken to like that repeatedly.
No matter who it is, it's hard to suppress the anger in their heart.
Cao Gongyi stopped wasting words. He kicked the teapot in front of him towards Chu Fan while following closely behind.
Chu Fan shifted his body to the side, dodging the teapot, and a smile curved his lips.
A smile of disdain.
Whoosh…
His fist swept through the air.
What?
Cao Gongyi's heart trembled. His fist stopped in mid-air.
He couldn't imagine Chu Fan's speed. In a flash, he was gone.
"You father and son truly don't shed tears until you see the coffin!"
Chu Fan's cold voice echoed.
Cao Cheng's scalp instantly tingled.
Because Chu Fan's voice sounded from behind him.
Chu Fan, who was originally directly opposite his father, was now standing behind him.
Throughout the entire process, Cao Cheng hadn't even noticed when he had appeared behind him.
Was this speed even human?
A chilling sensation pricked his back. Cao Cheng subconsciously struck backward.
Bang!
Before he could fully turn around, a tremendous force slammed into him.
The formidable power was like a large truck charging forward.
Cao Cheng, with his robust physique and bear-like build, held no advantage in front of Chu Fan. He was as fragile as a sandbag.
"Cheng'er!"
Seeing Cao Cheng blasted into a corner, unmoving and his life or death unknown.
Cao Gongyi, ignoring Chu Fan, rushed to his son's side.
Upon careful examination, he found that his son was merely unconscious, his arm bone broken, but his foundation was not damaged. Only then did Cao Gongyi's suspended heart relax.
His son was the future of the Cao family; nothing could happen to him.
Seeing Chu Fan approach, Cao Gongyi slowly stood up, his bloodshot eyes glaring ferociously at Chu Fan.
"You're forcing me into this!"
With that, Cao Gongyi mobilized all his strength, surging towards Chu Fan with a gust of wind.
Facing the attack.
This time, Chu Fan did not dodge. He stood his ground, allowing the fist to land on him.
A muffled thud echoed.
Chu Fan remained as steady as a mountain, while Cao Gongyi's face turned pale, suffering the backlash.
"You, you…"
Feeling the surging power beneath his fist, like an overflowing flood, terror appeared on Cao Gongyi's face.
Originally, he thought Chu Fan might be a Grandmaster.
Now, he knew he had guessed wrong.
This young man was more than just a Grandmaster.
At the same time, Cao Gongyi understood that Chu Fan hadn't been lying earlier.
The power he possessed could indeed make the Cao family disappear from Shanhai City.
If he had known this, why struggle in vain?
"Regret now is too late!"
As Chu Fan's indifferent voice echoed, his fist struck Cao Gongyi's chest directly.
Puff…
Cao Gongyi was still in mid-air when blood spurted from his mouth.
The bookshelf collapsed. Upon hitting the ground, bloody foam continued to gush from his mouth.
Feeling his internal condition.
Cao Gongyi's eyes filled with despair, and his emotions caused his entire body to tremble.
He knew he was finished, his martial path utterly broken by Chu Fan's single punch.
"Bold! Daring to cause trouble in the Cao family, you court death!"
A rough, angry roar suddenly sounded from the doorway.
Cao Gongyi's elder brother, Cao Gongren, immediately lunged forward. However, before he could even launch an attack, Chu Fan had already closed in. With a push of his knee, he sent Cao Gongren flying out the door even faster. After rolling a few times on the ground, he completely lost consciousness.
The other Cao family members who had just arrived all instinctively stopped, gazing into the room with extreme fear.
Although Cao Gongren's strength was somewhat weaker than the Family Head's, he shouldn't have been so utterly defeated.
It was unimaginable how terrifying the person inside must be.
Inside the room.
Chu Fan walked to Cao Gongyi's side, looking down at him from above.
"Now, are you ready to talk?"
Having become a cripple himself, living was worse than dying.
Under this mindset, Cao Gongyi's eyes turned resolute, making it clear that Chu Fan would not get a single word from him.
Seeing this, Chu Fan did not rush.
He suddenly walked over to Cao Cheng, lifted him from the ground, and threw him onto a chair.
"This son of yours, he is the hope of your Cao family, isn't he?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Gongyi could no longer lie on the ground. He struggled to get up.
"You, what do you want to do?"
Likely realizing Chu Fan's intentions, Cao Gongyi's eyes began to show tension and panic.
"I won't do anything. Since you don't want to talk, I will make your Cao family completely disappear from Shanhai City!"
"For the sake of an official Zhang, you're willing to sacrifice your entire Cao family. I admire that!"
"I hope you can impress me one more time!"
Everyone has a weakness.
If one's mouth is stubborn and they refuse to speak, it's usually because their weakness hasn't been grasped.
Chu Fan knew that Cao Gongyi's weakness was Cao Cheng.
He was born with bear bones and immense strength, making him highly suited for a martial path.
If he were allowed to grow, the Cao family would certainly produce a Grandmaster in another twenty years.
Moreover, due to his talent far exceeding ordinary people, Cao Cheng, upon becoming a Grandmaster, would experience a meteoric rise in his cultivation.
Such a person held a position like a treasure in a martial family.
If Cao Gongyi didn't care about his own thoughts, could he not care about the Cao family's future?
Seeing that Chu Fan wasn't joking and was truly going to cripple Cao Cheng, Cao Gongyi's resolve crumbled.
"I'll talk, I'll talk! Please don't hurt Xiao Cheng!"
As the head of the Cao family, he crawled towards Chu Fan like a stray dog.
"As long as you don't harm Xiao Cheng, as long as you leave a way out for the Cao family, I will tell you whatever you want to know!"
Chu Fan dragged over a chair and sat down.
"Speak!"
"First, promise me you won't harm Xiao Cheng and will leave a way out for the Cao family after I tell you!"
Still trying to set conditions at this point?
Chu Fan's brow furrowed, and his cold gaze fixed on Cao Gongyi.
"I'll give you ten seconds. Will you speak or not?"
"You were given the chance long ago. You have no right to negotiate with me now!"
"Besides, I might already know the information you're about to give."
Cao Gongyi swallowed the blood in his mouth with difficulty. After a two-second hesitation, he quickly began to speak.
Knowing that Chu Fan was primarily interested in official Zhang, Cao Gongyi's words focused on him.
What he said was largely similar to what Wu Qiming had said.
"Alright, tell me directly, how do I find this official Zhang, or how do I contact him!"
Chu Fan was too lazy to listen to any more nonsense.
"I, I…"
Cao Gongyi's speech faltered.
"Don't tell me you don't know!"
The temperature in the room rapidly dropped.
The blood Cao Gongyi had spat onto the floor visibly began to freeze.
Seeing this, Cao Gongyi felt his bones go cold.
Earlier, he had already felt that Chu Fan's strength was formidable.
Now, he thoroughly understood what kind of terrifying existence he had provoked.
From this alone, he knew that official Zhang, whom he looked up to, didn't seem very strong in front of Chu Fan.
"Hmm?"
The questioning sound startled Cao Gongyi awake.
"I, I really don't know where he is now, nor do I know how to contact him!"
Feeling the pressure emanating from Chu Fan, Cao Gongyi knew he was very angry. He quickly added, "Two years ago, it was rumored that official Zhang was seriously injured during a fight and then disappeared completely!"
"In the past, when we contacted him, it was always he who contacted us first!"
"Every time, he used a new number!"
"Therefore, I don't know where official Zhang is now, nor how to proactively contact him."
The hiddenness was profound enough.
After all this effort, was it all for nothing?
Ring ring…
Just then, Chu Fan's phone suddenly rang.
Taking it out, it was an unfamiliar number. Chu Fan hesitated slightly before pressing the answer button.
"Kid, I heard you're looking for me?"
