385 Assistance (2/2)
”What a powerful sword essence! I concede defeat!”
Lan Feihong let out a wailing laughter before a hateful look appeared on his face, ”Just that the way you do things... is too unscrupulous...”
”What... what did I do? How come I don't know what's happening...”
Han Jingfei was on the verge of tears.
He was frightened by how he raised his hands and released the sword essence just now.
”Hmph! My skills are inferior to yours! What else is there to say?”
Lan Feihong looked below and saw numerous people had already arrived outside. Leading that group was a tall and well-built elder with a long beard and mighty look.
”Who dares to harm my grandson?”
”Humph!”
Lan Feihong clenched his teeth and carried his green shirt junior in one hand while breaking through a window with the other. He leapt out of the restaurant and fled far away like a bird.
”Impressive Lightness Skill! A Wu Zong indeed!”
Han Family's Elder then went up the restaurant and lightly patted Han Jingfei's face, ”Grandson... it's fine now, with grandpa here, no one dares to harm you!”
”Grandpa!”
Han Ling'er tugged Grandpa Han's sleeve and said, ”Others didn't bully us, it was big brother who was bullying others!”
”Eh?”
Grandpa Han's eyes widened at once, ”Although that guy is young, he is no doubt a Wu Zong! You all were bullying him?”
”Grandpa... I was!”
Han Jingfei squeezed out an expression even uglier than a crying expression as he said, ”They claimed to be from Mystic Jade Sect and were beaten by me! I... I brought trouble to Han Family!”
”Mystic Jade Sect? One of the three big sects in Leaf Lake? The Mystic Jade Sect with a Wu Zong in the Meridian Opening Realm as their head?”
Grandpa Han almost choked to death as he heard what his grandson said. He immediately opened his eyes wide and scanned the surroundings.
As Grandpa Han was older and wiser, he had much more worldly experiences than his grandson. He knew that even if ten Han Jingfei fought against one Wu Zong, the Wu Zong would still defeat them with ease unless someone was secretly providing assistance.
The restaurant was in a total wreck and many of the customers had already run off as they feared trouble. Only the shopkeeper and a waiter were hiding in a corner.
Nevertheless, there was still a table that remained unscathed. The customer on it was even happily enjoying his wine which was very odd looking compared to the surroundings.
”Greetings, friend!”
Grandpa Han went forward and greeted this young man while sizing up him with his eyes.
The man was very young and appeared to be 20 years old only. However, he had sword-like brows, star-like eyes and appeared solemn and out of the ordinary. He was dressed like a normal martial artist. He slightly lifted his head to reveal a bright smile as he greeted, ”Since you have come, why not have a drink, Elder!”
”That sounds good!”
As Grandpa Han tried to probe, he could not figure out what this young man's cultivation was and felt uneasy. Nevertheless, he still amiably sat down and lifted his wine cup, ”I, Han Xiaotian, toast you! Can I ask what is your name?”
”Fate caused us to meet, why bother to ask if we met before...”
Fang Yuan smiled, ”My nickname is Crazy Knife. Pardon me for teaching those two young ones a lesson for being arrogant!”
”Indeed!”
Han Xiaotian had a look of realisation on his face.
Han Jingfei and Han Ling'er who stood beside Han Xiaotian finally realised their benefactor was right there. Their curious eyes kept looking at Fang Yuan as they sized him up.
It was especially so for Han Ling'er as her face turned slightly red.
”Wow! Looks like there's some advantage to having a beautiful face!” Fang Yuan thought to himself.
Fang Yuan was speechless at such a scene as he caressed his cheeks.
As Fang Yuan changed his appearance, he slightly improved his looks to fit the beauty standards. His current face was already much better than his previous one and he could be deemed as a pretty boy.
”Furthermore, this pair of brother and sister look like nice people and I guess fate brought us together which is why I decided to help them against such bullies!”
”Thank you very much...”
Han Xiaotian was very much speechless.
This was originally a small issue as his grandson would have just learned his lesson after being defeated. However, with Fang Yuan's so-called assistance, they had now offended Mystic Jade Sect! It was truly unlucky for the Han Family.
”Helping them my a*s!” Han Xiaotian thought.
Inside Han Xiaotian's heart, he was definitely very frustrated and vexed.
Nonetheless, since they had already offended Mystic Jade Sect, they could not bear to offend another person. Han Xiaotian still forced a smile and appeared cheery.
”Great, since this trouble was caused by me, I will settle it!”
Fang Yuan had already completed more than half of his goal and he immediately heroically continued, ”I just finished cultivating in the mountains and I'm looking forward to testing my skills! If Mystic Jade Sect comes after you all again, I will settle them myself!”
”I was waiting for you to say this!” Han Xiaotian thought.
Han Xiaotian's eyes sparkled as he could not contain his smile and thanked Fang Yuan profusely. He even warmly invited Fang Yuan to stay with Han Family.
”How... how could I trouble you!”
Fang Yuan acted like he was rejecting the offer which made Han Xiaotian anxiously use up all his pleasantries to make Fang Yuan accept the invite.
