Deng Jun managed to gather himself and connected the call. He placed the cell phone near his ear and as he listened, nodding from time to time. In the end, he hung up the phone and, after a couple of seconds of pause, he turned to Chen Fan.

“I am sorry… Mr. Chen… I didn’t know that….”

“Deng Jun, what are you doing? Go after him!” Brother Wu shouted. However, he got a solid slap on the face as a reply.

Brother Wu was stunned by the development. He covered his cheek and was not sure what to do.

Everyone was dumbfounded by the development as they wondered what had happened. Could it be that the caller really was Baldy Liu?

Then and only then, realization finally dawned upon Brother Wu. He knew that he had ticked off the wrong person this time; the burning hand mark on his cheeks was the proof.

He hurried to drop to both knees to the ground and kowtowed to Chen Fan. “I am sorry, please forgive me. Please forgive me!”

Deng Jun plastered on a conciliatory smile and said: “Mr. Chen, he is an idiot, he has always been. Don’t let him bother you.”

Chen Fan kept his silence. However, Tong Shan took a step forward and kicked Brother Wu’s legs with great force.

“AHHhh!”

Brother Wu bent over doubled and hugged his knees close to his chest as he let out a painful howl.

Life drained away from Deng Jun’s face and the faces around him. However, no one dared to say a word.

“Fine, that will be it.” Chen Fan shook his head slightly and decided to call it quits. These are lowly sc.u.m and, if not because of Lord Wu’s involvement, he would have already left the scene a while ago.

However, Chen Fan would not so easily forgive Deng Jun and other perpetrators. He had told Liu Guodong on the phone that he didn’t want to see these people again. He was confident that Liu Guodong would be smart enough to understand what he really meant.

“What a shame that I was unable to meet Lord Wu.” Chen Fan heaved a sigh before he started back to the bus.

As he pa.s.sed Zhang Qiang, he paused a second and then said lightly: “Go back and tell Wu Xiuyan that I will be visiting him in person very soon.”

Afterwards, he disappeared into the bus. Lu Yanxue hesitated for a second and quickly caught up with him. Zhang Qiang wasn’t able to gather himself until the bus had disappeared at the end of the road.

“Wu Xiuyan? Isn’t that Lord Wu’s name?” Zhang Qiang furrowed his brows and asked: “So he asked me to leave a message for Lord Wu, but who the heck is he?”

He glanced at Brother Wu, who was still howling out his pain as a light bulb moment hit him. “He has a connection with Boss Liu and, his last name is Chen. He is also very young. Could he be the legendary Master Chen?”

With that thought in mind, Zhang Qiang started to tremble uncontrollably.

He had thought that Master Chen was an urban legend.

He thought of the rumors about the bad blood between Lord Wu and Master Chen, and the thought gave him jitters. He hurried back to the vehicle and drove away to deliver the message.

When Chen Fan was back on the bus, pa.s.sengers gave Chen Fan fearful glances. Miao Xiaoqian was pleasantly surprised by the turn of events. Chen Fan was able to overcome the group of angry mobs with just a phone call.

Lu Yanxue held up her chin with pride. She muttered to herself. “Humph. Liu Guodong is no big deal. His power is only mediocre compared to members of my family.”

Chen Fan heard the girl’s words and was amused. He reckoned that her bark was worse than her bite.

Afterward, the three chatted along the way. When they finally arrived at the Lin City, Miao Xiaoqian felt it difficult to say goodbye. Before Lu Yanxue bade farewell with him, she said with a solemn face: “Hey kiddo, don’t try to be a hero next time. Although you are under your Big Cousin’s protection, he was no match against real powerful fighters despite his tough looks. Just stay out of trouble, will you?”

She paused a second as a hint of hesitation surfaced on her face. “If you do get yourself into trouble, tell them my name and tell them you know people from the Lu family.”

“Thanks, but that’s fine. I am not afraid of anyone.” Chen Fan said with his hands linked behind his back, it was as if he was a Martial Arts master.

“Tough guy.” Lu Yanxue rolled her eyes at him. After they exchanged each other’s phone numbers, they bade each other farewell and parted ways.

Chen Fan sauntered out of the bus station with Tong Shan trailing closely behind.

“Lin City, I have arrived!”

He scanned the flow of traffic around him and then reached out with his Immortal Will. To his surprise, he sensed the presence of a Martial Artist; it was a good sign.

“I would be hard pressed to find even just one Martial Artist in a month, yet they are everywhere here. I am in the right place!”

Chen Fan didn’t ask Huo Donglai the location of the conference since he was confident that he could be able to locate it by himself.

He locked his Immortal Will onto the martial artist he had spotted and followed his signal. The Martial Artist traveled fast, weaving in and out of the crowd like a herring swimming in a cl.u.s.ter of corals. On the other hand, Chen Fan’s steps were slow, but his strides were wide, so much so that he had no problem catching up with the swift-moving martial artist.

The cat and mouse game went on for a while until the Martial artist led Chen Fan into a dead end. As soon as Chen Fan rounded a corner, he saw the man was standing against a wall, waiting for him.

“May I know who you are? Why have you been following me?”

The martial artist’s face was yellow and waxy. He was a slender build and tall, middle-aged man. Despite his thin limbs, his hands were gigantic. A white light glowed faintly at the tip of each finger. He fixed his gaze on Tong Shan, in part due to the fearsome sight of Tong Shan’s large body.

“You were able to detect me?”
