The group quickly waved their hands, "No, no, absolutely not!"

The steward sneered, "Heh, don't actually anger Young Master Fang, or you'll all regret it!"

The group nodded repeatedly, their air of seniority from before Fang Chen completely gone.

At this moment, their hearts were filled with dread and fear.

They never imagined that Fang Chen had actually succeeded in breaking through, making him even more impressive than those rich young masters!

He used to be nothing more than a gambling hooligan, Yet in less than a month, the Fang family's boy had undergone such a massive transformation!

Not only had his strength greatly increased, but he had also gotten involved with the Young Gang Leader of the Three Rivers Gang!

On top of that, he had even managed to get Old Fang a position as their steward.

How could they have ever predicted any of this!

Just now, they had been boasting about their own sons to Old Fang.

Looking back, it seemed rather laughable.

How could their sons compare to the current Fang Chen!

Not only was he doing well for himself, but he was also ensuring his father lived well!

Where could you find a son like that?

Everyone couldn't help but envy him, Having a son like that was truly something to be proud of.

But... thinking about it now was useless. They needed to focus on whether Fang Chen was angry or not...

Meanwhile, at the Fang residence, Fang Chen was busy preparing meat with Fang Ting, having long since forgotten about the earlier incident.

Fang Ting said with a smile, "A Chen, I never expected your martial arts talent to be so good."

"Thinking back, I should have sent you to train martial arts earlier, instead of letting you fool around all day."

Fang Chen chuckled, "Sis, martial arts training also depends on age. Training too young can harm the body."

Fang Ting didn't quite understand this, but she was very happy about her brother's current change.

"A Chen, it seems like ever since you were knocked out last time, you've completely changed. Not only did you stop gambling and messing around, but you even started thinking about practicing martial arts."

Hearing this, Fang Chen found it difficult to explain, so he simply didn't answer.

However...

Fang Chen still didn't know who had knocked him out. He pondered and recalled, The previous me died, which is why I could transmigrate here.

So the person who knocked me out back then wasn't trying to just knock me unconscious, but to kill me outright.

What was I doing that day?

Hiss...

Fang Chen felt a slight pain in his head.

Damn it, why can't I remember what happened that day.

Is it a side effect of being hit on the head...

Fang Ting asked with concern, "A Chen, are you feeling unwell?"

Fang Chen smiled, "It's nothing, I just can't quite remember what happened the day I was knocked out."

"Sis, do you know what I was doing that day?"

Fang Ting frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head. "A Chen, I basically worked in the laundry room during the day, so I don't know where you went."

"But based on your usual habits, you were probably out messing around with your buddies."

"Maybe you can ask them?"

Hearing this suggestion, Fang Chen nodded, "I'm a steward in the Three Rivers Gang. Tomorrow I'm going to collect my gang token, so I can meet up with Ling Hu and the others then."

Fang Ting sounded surprised and delighted, "A Chen, you're a steward now?!"

Fang Chen smiled and nodded.

"There are many other things, we can talk about them while eating later."

"I was also thinking of changing our place to live. It's been a bit unsafe around here lately..."

At the dinner table, Fang Chen told Father Fang about the honorary steward position. Father Fang was very happy and drank a few more cups of wine.

Then Fang Chen brought up the matter of moving. Both Father Fang and Fang Ting said they would listen to his arrangements.

Slowly, Fang Chen had surprisingly become the decision-maker of the family.

After dinner and a short rest, Fang Chen continued to practice the Whirlwind Blade Technique in the courtyard.

The next day, Fang Chen arrived at a branch of the Three Rivers Gang nearby. A steward was in charge there.

Fang Chen had no conflict with him because Fang Chen only held an honorary position.

He would only step in when absolutely necessary, and the daily affairs of the territory were managed by this steward.

Upon seeing Fang Chen, the steward cupped his hands first, "Young Master Fang, your waist token is ready."

"But I need my subordinates to get a good look at you, so they don't offend you in the future."

"Besides that, if you need them to do anything, you can also give them direct orders."

Fang Chen nodded and took the waist token given by the other party.

The front was inscribed with "Steward," and the back bore his name.

Not long after, several of the steward's subordinates, including some leaders and regular members, arrived.

Fang Chen saw Li Hu and Zhang Tao among the crowd.

They naturally also saw Fang Chen. After all, Fang Chen was standing shoulder-to-shoulder with their steward, making it impossible not to see him.

After seeing Fang Chen, Zhang Tao and the others were filled with surprise and doubt.

They had heard the steward say that a new honorary steward had arrived today and they needed to recognize him.

Could it be... that the new honorary steward was Fang Chen?!

Such a guess couldn't help but surface in Zhang Tao and the others' minds.

But if that were the case, it would be too astonishing! Let's wait and see what the steward says first...

Seeing that everyone had arrived, the steward announced loudly, "This is Young Master Fang beside me. He is a steward at the same level as I am, and also a master of the Skin and Muscle Realm!"

"From now on, when you see him, you should respectfully call him Steward Fang."

"If Young Master Fang has anything he needs you to do, you must all do it properly for me, do you hear me?!"

Hearing the steward's words directly, Li Hu's face instantly turned pale, "How could this be..."

"Fang Chen has already broken through to the Skin and Muscle Realm?! How could it be so fast?!"

When he had first seen Fang Chen, Li Hu had initially thought that perhaps Fang Chen had indeed become a steward, but it was likely due to the Young Gang Leader's favor, unrelated to his own strength.

However, just now, the steward had personally said that

Fang Chen was a master of the Skin and Muscle Realm!

How was this possible?! Fang Chen hadn't even been in the martial arts school for a month, how could his progress be so rapid!

Not long ago, he had told his subordinates that if they worked hard, they might also be able to curry favor with the Young Gang Leader like Fang Chen in the future.

But now... Fang Chen had used his own strength to tell him that

Fang Chen's connection with the Young Gang Leader was due to his own strength, not flattery!

This time, Fang Chen had slapped Li Hu hard in the face.

No matter how much Li Hu tried to deny it, he couldn't change the fact that Fang Chen's strength and status were now higher than theirs!

Li Hu stood there trembling, not daring to meet Fang Chen's gaze.

Now Fang Chen was a steward one rank above him.

Although it was only an honorary position, with his connection to the Young Gang Leader, it would be incredibly easy for him to have Li Hu's position as a subordinate leader removed.

Li Hu had no possibility of resistance.

Therefore, he was very afraid of Fang Chen now, hoping that Fang Chen wouldn't bring up past grievances, otherwise, he truly didn't know what to do.

At this moment, The Steward looked at Fang Chen and asked with a smile, "Young Master Fang, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll let them go back."

Fang Chen shook his head.

"Li Hu, Zhang Tao, you guys wait here. I have a few words for you. Everyone else can disperse."

The Steward felt a bit surprised but didn't think too much of it. He waved his hand, letting the others leave first.

Li Hu and the others were filled with dread at this moment.

What was Fang Chen planning? Did he already know they had been badmouthing him?

Was he going to kill them directly?!

Seeing everyone disperse, the Steward also left directly, not wanting to interrupt Fang Chen's conversation.

Li Hu stepped forward first and said respectfully, "Master Fang... Master Fang, do you have any instructions?"

Hearing the address "Master Fang," Fang Chen couldn't help but chuckle.
