“Stop!”
The voice came among a large crowd that was spilling into the courtyard. The leader of the crowd, was also the speaker, he was a man of imposing manner. The sight of his man lit up An Zaichen and An Tianfen’s face with glee.
“Chairman!”
The man was the Chairman of Ans Group’s board of directors, An Tianshu. Standing beside him was Lord An himself An Zaiqin, and An Yuqin, Hou Fangyu and many other leaders of the An family. There were also a few guests mixed in among familiar faces.
“Hey dip s.h.i.+t! Our family lord and Chairman are here. What can you do now?”
An Tianfen grinned and asked coldly.
An Ruoxi covered her mouth and squeezed her eyes closed as she ran to hide behind An Ya. However, An Yuqin had already spotted her. The young woman dragged An Ruoxi by the ear and pulled her out from her cover.
“Did you do this?”
An Tianshu was taken aback by what he saw inside the courtyard. He pulled a taut face and asked Chen Fan. The rest of the crowd also gazed at Chen Fan, some in confusion, and the others in fear. No one had expected a young man to be so strong as to take on a dozen guards at once.
However, Chen Fan had picked the wrong opponent and ruffled the feathers of the mighty An family.
Already, many people shook their heads, praying for Chen Fan.
“Do you think they can save you?”
Chen Fan was unfazed by the large crowd. His gaze on An Tianfen didn’t waver in the slightest.
“What are you going to do?”
An Tianfen registered the deadly intent in Chen Fan’s eyes and was terrified by it. He felt cold sweat running down from his back as he slowly backed away.
“Kneel!”
Chen Fan growled and kicked at An Tianfen’s legs, breaking them in an instant. With a loud thud, An Tianfen dropped to the ground. His hands grabbed the wound on his legs as he let out a painful scream.
“You are courting death!”
The development angered the crowd.
An Tianshu rounded his eyes in disbelief and his darkened face was taut with anger. Black flames roiled inside him, contorting his face until he looked like a ravenous tiger who as ready to pounce on his prey. There was no doubt that the chairman of the multi-trillion cooperation was riled up.
Chen Fan’s action had caught An Yuqin and An Ruoxi by surprise. They would never have thought that Chen Fan would injure anyone in An family in broad daylight. Losing her last shred of hope, An Ya finally closed her eyes and give in to what was about to come. The situation had already escalated to the point of no return.
“Xiao Fan is my brother, my real family. I am always on his side regardless of what he is going to do. If he wanted to visit h.e.l.l, I will follow him as well.”
With that thought in mind, An Ya opened her eyes again. She found that with the new-found determination, she could see much clearer now.
“You are an Internal Force user, aren’t you. Do you think your puny tricks will make you safe?” An Tianshu snorted and shouted: “Brother Xin!”
“Boss An, I got you covered!”
A broad middle-age man with a dull face stepped forward.
Despite his ordinary facial appearance, he had two outrageously long arms that dropped from his shoulders that reached his knee. The man’s face was lined with wrinkles, and despite the plain appearance, a sharp light glinted in his eyes in fits and starts, a telltale sign of the man’s extraordinary strength.
“He is Xin Shouqiong, a quiet but powerful master from the Grand Sage’s Pi Gua Sect. I heard that he already reached the peak of Internal Force cultivation and is only a half-step away from reaching the Grandmaster level.”
The sight of the fighter caught Hou Fangyu’s attention. He murmured under his breath.
Most people who had dabbled in the martial arts would have been shocked by Hou Fangyu’s revelation. Grandmasters were the so-called True Dragons. If Xin Shouqiong was only a half-step away from reaching that level, the man was definitely no match against him.
“I wager he is the guardian of the An family.”
Someone exclaimed.
“Indeed. Father had solicited Uncle Xin’s service a while ago. He had been a mighty warrior in the Don He Province, and was granted the nickname ‘Invincible Xin.’” An Yuqin let out a cold smile as she shot a gloating glare at Chen Fan.
“Ah! That’s Uncle Xin! That means—”
An Ruoxi covered her mouth to stifle a fearful cry.
She was well aware of the strength of her father’s bodyguard. Uncle Xin had punched a tiger to death right in front of her.
There was no way that Chen Fan could hold his own while fighting against Uncle Xin.
“This young man is knee-deep in trouble.”
Many people shook their heads and lamented.
“Kiddo, you really shouldn’t have come. I won’t kill you because you are still too young to die. But I will have to break your legs as a lesson to you.”
Invincible Xin slowly inched closer to Chen Fan as he lamented.
Suddenly, he straightened his long slender back into a sword. He shot out both arms, revealing the dark glinting fingertips: the results of decades of focused strengthening.
Chen Fan barely gave Xin Shouqiong a glance.
The An family might be gullible enough to pay a fortune to solicit protection from a semi transcendent level fighter. But Chen Fan could kill the fighter without even lifting a finger.
“Hold on!”
