"Whew... finally ho, I’m so tired."
A creaking sound was heard.
The black rcedes ca to a stop at the entrance of the Southern City War Zone compound.
Lin Fan and the other two got out of the car, exchanging smiles.
Sumr Bingbing raised her fair arms, stretched her slender waist, and let out a big yawn.
Fatty Chu, on the other hand, wore a wide grin, leaning on his crutch, clearly intending to shalessly keep following along.
"Guoxiong, get back ho right now, the old man has sothing to say to you!"
At this mont,
a middle-aged man with his hands behind his back walked out from the main entrance of the Chu family’s ancestral house across the street.
An air of authority naturally radiated from his square face, now shrouded in a chill.
He frowned, finished speaking, and glared at Sumr Bingbing with displeasure, before fixing his gaze on Lin Fan’s face.
For so reason, the man’s cheek twitched slightly.
A glint of astonishnt and dread flickered in his eyes, then he turned and walked back without a word.
"Oh no, oh no, my dad must have found out about the trouble I caused today, maybe the old man will even use family law..."
Seeing this, Fatty Chu had a bitter face, turning back every few steps, as he headed ho.
"Will he be okay?"
Lin Fan withdrew his gaze and asked Sumr Bingbing, who was reveling in schadenfreude.
"No worries, that fat guy’s skin is thick. He’s been spanked by Mr. Chu Sr. since he was a kid, he’s probably got calluses on his butt by now, nothing to worry about."
Sumr Bingbing shook her head with a giggle.
"Hmph, you two have the mind to worry about others? Get in here, both of you!"
The next mont,
there ca a stern, angry shout from deep inside the compound.
"Oh no, the old man’s angry! Lin Fan, you better cover for !"
Sumr Bingbing’s playful smile froze.
She couldn’t help but shrink her neck, looking pitifully at Lin Fan.
"Weren’t you also spanked by the old man since you were little? What’s there to be afraid of now?"
Lin Fan’s mouth twitched as he took a deep breath, trying to maintain his composure.
Under the sympathetic gazes of the two guards, he walked alongside Sumr Bingbing into the Xia Family Mansion.
"Sumr Bingbing, you’ve grown so guts, huh? I told you not to get involved in Lin Fan’s ss, but you wouldn’t listen?"
The two of them arrived at the main hall deep inside the courtyard.
Mr. Xia Sr. sat at the top with a fierce face and barked angrily.
Two warriors in black uniforms with crew cuts sat to his right, observing with grim expressions.
"Grandpa, I, I didn’t do anything bad, why are you so fierce?"
Sumr Bingbing approached with a distressed face, complaining to Mr. Xia Sr.
"Step aside for now; I’ll deal with you later."
Mr. Xia Sr. remained unmoved, glaring at the approaching Lin Fan, his eyebrows twitching involuntarily.
"I asked you to stay in the Imperial Capital, but why didn’t you follow the rules? Just look at you; you nearly caused a storm today!"
He gestured backward towards the two warriors in uniform, snorting angrily.
"They’re here to interrogate you now. I’m done with this; if you keep being reckless, you’re dood!"
"...Sorry, I was too impulsive today and caused trouble for the old marshal."
Lin Fan paused, then turned to look at the two squinting warriors in uniform.
"If you want to take away, I won’t resist... but it was all my doing and has nothing to do with the Xia family."
"Ha, still playing the noble hero?"
One tall and thin warrior stood up, hands behind his back, circling around Lin Fan.
"You should know our identities well; you killed soone, and not just anyone, but a foreign guest. You even injured Ying Rufeng, who just returned... You really are sothing!"
"Thank you for the complint, I just couldn’t hold back, I’ll watch out next ti."
Lin Fan smiled, responding calmly.
"Are you stupid or just pretending to be? Next ti, there won’t be a next ti!"
Bam!
The other middle-aged, slightly overweight warrior slamd the table, standing up abruptly!
"Ying Bufan! No, wait, Lin Fan! Since you’ve broken the rules, you must accept the punishnt as previously agreed!"
"What punishnt?"
Lin Fan glanced sideways at the man, asking indifferently.
"You were a fugitive to begin with, returning to the Imperial Capital was already a gesture of leniency from above! Yet you show no appreciation and dare to run amok?"
The middle-aged warrior’s eyes widened coldly, shouting sternly.
"Seeing your current attitude, there’s no sign of repentance. You better be prepared to confess honestly in the military court!"
Having said that, he stepped forward, reaching out to grab Lin Fan’s shoulder.
"Hold on a mont, as far as I know, the Extre Speed Taekwondo Gym has already proactively reported to the relevant authorities, they won’t hold this against at all."
Smack!
Lin Fan abruptly slapped away the man’s big hand, his expression growing colder.
"As for injuring Ying Rufeng, he was the one who started it. I showed restraint multiple tis; I was already being lenient."
Wha-what?
You kid sure know how to shirk responsibility cleanly.
You beat Ying Rufeng so badly that his own mother almost couldn’t recognize him, and you call that being lenient?
Hearing this, the two uniford warriors exchanged glances, so angry that their noses were almost crooked.
"Hmph, no matter how you argue, it doesn’t change the facts!"
The middle-aged uniford warrior took a deep breath, angrily saying, "Your only way out now is to atone for your cris."
"Here’s the deal: in light of your past rits, hand over the Qi Replenishing Pill formula imdiately, and perhaps you can make ands!"
As soon as this remark ca out, the hall suddenly fell silent.
Mr. Xia Sr. squinted his eyes and gave a cold smile.
Next to him, Xia Bingbing was montarily stunned and couldn’t help but purse her lips, a hint of disdain in her eyes.
It goes without saying, these two must have been sent by the Imperial Capital War Zone to intimidate Lin Fan.
The real motive was to obtain the invaluable Qi Replenishing Pill formula!
"Which big shot from the Imperial Capital War Zone are you two under?"
Lin Fan furrowed his brow slightly, looking deeply at the two n.
"That’s none of your business. If you’re unwilling, then there’s nothing more to say. Co with us!"
The middle-aged uniford warrior’s eyes flickered, turning his head away.
The other’s expression changed slightly, hesitating without speaking.
One second, two seconds, three seconds... After a full ten seconds of silence.
Lin Fan took a long breath, nodded.
"Fine, I’m willing to hand over the Qi Replenishing Pill formula."
What?
This kid is finally willing to concede?
Both middle-aged uniford warriors were montarily stunned, then couldn’t help but look at each other, deep joy in their eyes!
Originally, they thought they would have to coerce and lure him before Lin Fan would yield.
Who would have thought, this once proud and aloof Heavenly Pride War God was ultimately a hero in decline.
Even with all his past honors.
Now he also has to bow to reality!
"The mighty tiger, once fallen, is bullied by dogs, sigh..."
Seeing this, Mr. Xia Sr. hesitated to speak.
Ultimately, the words at his lips transford into a long sigh.
You have to know, the Qi Replenishing Pill formula was once Lin Fan’s greatest trump card, making other war zones quite envious.
Yet he stubbornly refused to share.
Saying it was to leave an equitable path for promotion for the warriors from ordinary civilian backgrounds.
Not to turn the Qi Replenishing Pill into a private treasure for currying favor!
"Grandfather, aren’t they just bullying him? You, how could you..."
Xia Bingbing was stunned.
Coming to her senses, she couldn’t help but feel angry and heartbroken for Lin Fan, stomping her foot and looking at Mr. Xia Sr.
"It’s the path he chose himself, I’m old, I can’t interfere."
Mr. Xia Sr. shook his head, signaling Xia Bingbing to hold her tongue.
"Heh heh, a wise man submits to circumstances, Lin Fan, you should understand this principle well."
At this mont.
That middle-aged warrior’s eyes glead with smugness.
Then he took out the prepared paper and pen, leisurely handing it to Lin Fan.
"Write it down, don’t play any tricks. After we take it back, we’ll have dical experts discern it carefully."
"I won’t play any tricks... However, I intend to make the Qi Replenishing Pill formula public and freely give it to all Xia Country Battle Zones."
Lin Fan took the paper and pen, nodded, and began to write swiftly.
Completely disregarding the two n’s frozen smiles and shocked expressions!
Public?
He actually intends to make the invaluable Qi Replenishing Pill formula public!
Damn it, if that really happens, the big shots in other war zones would go crazy with joy.
But the ones who would suffer would be the eagerly waiting big shots of the Imperial Capital War Zone!
"No! It can’t be made public, you can’t make such a decision on your own!"
The middle-aged warrior gasped in shock.
He imdiately panicked, lunging forward to try and snatch back the paper and pen.
