Fan Mingjue stepped forward, "Patriarch..."
He recounted the events, including how Fan Wubing effortlessly resolved everything with a single move.
The na Fan Wubing quickly spread among the onlookers.
Although Fan Qi was very pleased, he still had to display the deanor of a family head in front of so many outsiders, nodding in praise, "Hmm, you did well this ti, defending our Fan Family's territory. However, I still have to criticize you. How could you not even cover them with a piece of cloth? In such cold weather, it's quite unfair to others. Soone unaware might think our Fan Family is inconsiderate."
Everyone understood; this was not criticism but a disguised form of praise.
"I will go and cover them now."
"No need." Fan Qi looked toward the crowd, "I kindly ask each family to co and retrieve your injured disciples and heal them quickly, lest any prolonged condition arises, and you bla our Fan Family later."
The crowd rushed forward to claim their disciples.
Most people were beaten to the point of confusion, their faces swollen beyond recognition. Their bones were fractured in various places, but upon careful inspection, they found that crucial areas like the ridians and dantian were intact, which relieved them.
This also made them realize that Fan Wubing had indeed held back, as being able to deal such a blow with one move showed he had the capacity to cripple them.
Even if they were crippled, no one could complain. They were the ones who initiated the provocation, and Fan Wubing was also part of the younger generation, even considered young among them.
Therefore, those who ca to claim the injured did not dare utter a grievance. Not only that, they had to offer apologies voluntarily, a fact that was quite humiliating.
Ironically, just yesterday, the various families had united to exert pressure, and today, they ca together to claim their injured.
What caused this change was,
Fan Wubing.
The person who always had titles like "Disaster Star" and "Useless in cultivation" and was "quite famous" among the families in Kuiyu City.
Thus, an intense discussion erupted among the families in Kuiyu City.
What level had Fan Wubing, who returned from the Eternal Immortal Sect, reached?
To defeat so many at the Foundation Establishnt Stage in one move, he must be at the Golden Core level!
How old is Fan Wubing this year?
Fifteen!
A Golden Core at fifteen! Just thinking about it was enough to make the heads of various families go pale. A fifteen-year-old Golden Core, and a disciple of the Eternal Immortal Sect—what does that an? It ans that unless sothing unusual happens, breaking through to Nascent Soul shouldn't be a problem, and thinking further, he might even reach higher levels of Nascent Soul.
Perhaps upon graduating, he'd remain at the Eternal Immortal Sect, becoming a Steward Yi Feng or even an Elder!
Additionally!
The royal family of Canglang Country seed to have a good relationship with the Fan Family, likely due to Fan Wubing.
Fan Wubing truly had a bright future!
Thus, so questioned, who said Fan Wubing was a disaster star? Look for yourself, a fifteen-year-old Golden Core, favored by the royal family of Canglang Country—does that seem like a disaster star?
The Fan Family... in Kuiyu City was truly about to rise...
This beca a general consensus among the people.
Savvy families had already begun preparing gifts, ready to visit and establish connections.
In the following days, the Fan Family was bustling beyond belief, with all sorts of visitors daily, so offering apologies, others extending congratulations and best wishes... Without exception, they all wanted to et Fan Wubing and have a conversation with this new star of Kuiyu City.
But without exception, they were all turned away by Fan Qi.
As the patriarch, Fan Qi knew perfectly well what these people were up to, rely wanting to gauge his son's abilities. How could he let them interrupt his son's preparations for the upcoming five-year hurdle?
Rejected, all were rejected!
So even thought they had daughters around Fan Wubing's age and inquired, both openly and discreetly, if they could perhaps have a al together or sothing.
This amused Fan Qi; if it weren't for the need to maintain face, as they would encounter each other often, he would have bluntly said, "First ask yourself if you are worthy, then co ask if it's possible."
It's no exaggeration to say that the threshold of the Fan Family was nearly worn out from visits, as Fan Qi was busy entertaining guests, quite exhausted.
That night, while Fan Wubing was helping him nurture his body, he said, "Father, there's no need to et with everyone, right?"
"Although a large number of folks suddenly claim kinship, etings are necessary. The Fan Family has always had internal and external conflicts over the years. Many issues have been accumulating, so while you are ho with a good standing, it's opportune to address them all at once."
"Alright, just take care of yourself, don't overexert." After nurturing, Fan Wubing sat to the side and said, "There's sothing I want to discuss with you, Father."
"Oh?" Fan Qi imdiately perked up.
"Over the past few days, I've been observing. It seems the disciples of the Fan Family... lack a leading figure."
"You."
"It better not be ," Fan Wubing said. "Father, you know well that I can't remain in the Fan Family forever."
Fan Qi sighed, "That's inevitable. Among the younger generation of the Fan Family, those under forty, aside from you, there's truly no one particularly outstanding. Whether it's in cultivatation or martial arts, none have exceptional potential."
"We have a generational gap to bridge."
"Sigh," Fan Qi sighed. He understood that such a gap in a large family was deadly, but... talent is innate and hard to change.
