“Damn punk, what a load of gall you have! Once I’m through with her, I’ll deal with you.”

Lin Tianyu stared down Zhuo Fan with killing intent. As a man from the Seven Noble Houses, everywhere he went all he saw was respect and envy.

So a person like Zhuo Fan, who had only contempt, had to be put down. This was an unwritten law of the Tianyu Empire.

Dong Tianba sensed his killing intent and sighed at Zhuo Fan’s fate.

“Ha-ha-ha, bro Dong shouldn’t waste time with a clown.” Aware of the change in the atmosphere, Zhuo Fan still sported a casual smile.

It was spoken low enough to seem nonchalant, but loud enough to let everyone in on his words.

Everyone knew who he was hinting at, but none saw it coming from a 1st layer of Bone Tempering cultivator.

[Only a fool would mock the Seven Noble Houses.]

The people started to pity Zhuo Fan’s imminent and gruesome death.

“Ha-ha-ha, brother Tianyu, a fool just ridiculed you.” Xiao Dandan felt the atmosphere was lacking so she added oil to the fire.

Lin Tianyu was now filled with hatred for Zhuo Fan, “Humph, a retard’s words won’t affect me. I’ll just swipe him away once I’m done with the girl.”

He then stepped forward.

A fierce wind blew and vanished, but his laughter never stopped banging on the others’ ears, “Ha-ha-ha, only the last article remains and then I will get to truly appreciate this lady.”

Dong Xiaowan was curled up in fear, her hands tightened on her last shred of dignity.

Dong Tianba and the four elders made a tight circle around her. However, Zhuo Fan stood there impassive, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Suddenly, Lin Tianyu appeared before Dong Xiaowan and reached for her last article with a grin.

“He-he-he, I won!”

“Think again!”

A snort reached his ears.

He didn’t even get the chance to react when a fist smashed into his pretty face.

He went tumbling through the air and smacked the pavement before he could get his bearing. When he got up from the ground his cheek was already swollen.

“What just happened?”

The two were so fast that the onlookers didn’t see a shadow. They only heard two loud sounds and then came Lin Tianyu kissing the ground. Zhuo Fan also appeared, his hand outstretched above Dong Xiaowan.

“You… got him?” Dong Tianba was stunned. When not even himself and his four elders could save his sister, this kid managed to save the day?

Putting aside the fact that his 1st layer Bone Tempering cultivation held more power than a 7th layer, his speed alone was inconceivable.

In a casual manner, Zhuo Fan rubbed his presumably sore fist, “Something just came towards my fist. Owie, it stings.”

His words startled everyone, and Dong Tianba even began to laugh, “Ha-ha-ha, great! Bro, how did you do it? I couldn’t even see him!”

“Do you even need to see?” Zhuo Fan rose an eyebrow and sported a vague smile, “Isn’t his target obvious? If you build a wall next to her, he’s bound to bump into it.”

It was so obvious now that everyone could think of it.

They were so focused on Lin Tianyu’s speed mastery that they were led by the nose. But even with his impressive speed, his target was Dong Xiaowan. All they had to do was keep their eyes on her.

This simple reasoning almost made them tear up.

“Amazing!” An elder praised Zhuo Fan, “Young master Song is really a genius worthy of our young master’s admiration.”

“Ha-ha-ha, see little sister? Don’t I always say bro Song is a man of ethics and talent? If it wasn’t for him, you’d never have escaped this predicament.” Dong Tianba laughed as he lifted the weight off his heart.

Dong Xiaowan blushed as she conveyed her thanks and appreciation to Zhuo Fan through her eyes.

Waving it off, Zhuo Fan made eye contact with Dong Tianba, “Bro Dong, can you stop, it’s not up to you how it ends.”

Picking up on his gesture, Dong Tianba walked before Xiao Dandan with a smile, “Miss, we were lucky to have stopped this youth. I’m sure a disciple from Drifting Flowers Edifice wouldn’t cross her word, so let us end it here. I will be taking my sister now.”

With a deep bow, Dong Tianba was about to leave.

“Wait!”
