Second Young Master

The young lady wasn't old, and her expression was unremarkable.

She squatted there, quietly watching Chu Qing.

Seeing that Chu Qing was only scared and hadn't taken the tea, she withdrew her hand and took a sip herself.

Chu Qing: "..."

What was wrong with this woman?

Why was she staring at me like this?

Underneath those slightly vacant eyes, Chu Qing even began to wonder if she had seen through his disguise.

But at this moment, he couldn't worry about that. He heard the leader laugh heartily:

"The Second Young Master of the Chu Family, under the Wrathful God Fist, I thought you had some skill, but it seems you're nothing special!"

Chu Qing immediately turned his gaze back to the window. He saw Chu Fan standing between the galloping horses, his arms and legs caught by grappling hooks, unable to move.

"...What kind of trickery is this?"

Chu Qing's mouth twitched. He had thought he could dodge or counterattack, but it turned out... he was taking every move thrown at him.

At the same time, the Iron Horse Seven Bandits' movements changed again.

They were seen holding grappling hooks and chains, turning their horses and galloping in the opposite direction.

They were going to tear Chu Fan apart on the spot!

But Chu Fan smiled slightly:

"Then let me show you what I, Chu, am truly capable of!"

As he spoke, he roared, stomping his feet on the ground. A booming sound echoed as his true energy surged outwards.

Hiss!

The steeds of the Iron Horse Seven Bandits immediately whinnied towards the sky, seemingly greatly startled.

The two Iron Horse Seven Bandits who had hooked Chu Fan's legs suddenly felt as if they were pulling a mountain. The mountain didn't fall, but they themselves were dragged off their horses.

The grappling hooks and chains fastened onto Chu Fan clattered noisily, no longer as taut as before.

At this moment, Chu Fan suddenly flipped his palms, gripping the chains on either side. With a sudden pull, there was a clattering sound, and the two great thieves felt an irresistible force pull them, sending them flying backwards uncontrollably.

With a thump, the two met in mid-air and collided violently, the sound of shattering bones faintly audible.

They both spat blood, their faces pale, clearly not going to survive.

"Fourth, Sixth!!"

The leader roared in anger, spurring his horse forward, his battle axe swinging in wide arcs towards Chu Fan.

Chu Fan raised his hands and shattered the chains on his arms. He then clapped his palms together, using an empty-handed technique to block the leader's battle axe.

The leader's forehead bulged with veins, throbbing intensely, all his strength concentrated in one point.

He forcefully pressed the battle axe down, trying to split Chu Fan in two.

The immense power transmitted caused Chu Fan's feet to sink slightly, gradually digging into the ground.

But the battle axe simply couldn't cut down.

The leader took a deep breath and roared:

"He's at a stalemate with me, seize the opportunity to cut off his head!!"

Including the three who had died today, the leader and Chu Fan were locked in a struggle, leaving three others.

The two great thieves who had been dragging Chu Fan's feet exchanged glances. They immediately tightened their grip on the chains, disregarding their horses, and used their Internal Energy to drag.

The one who was free had already reached behind Chu Fan, a ring-handled saber in his hand, hacking down fiercely towards the back of Chu Fan's neck.

But at this very moment, the leader's expression changed drastically.

Not good!!

Cracking sounds emanated from the battle axe in his hand, cracks instantly spreading. Before he could react, with a crash, the battle axe in his hand shattered.

He wasn't trying to block my axe... he was trying to break my weapon!!

What kind of monstrous strength is this?

How can it be so exaggerated?

Chu Fan suddenly clenched his fist, and in an instant, the air seemed to be swept away. He sank his stance, suddenly turned, and threw a punch!

Tai Yi Divine Fist!!

An explosion sounded in the air. The first thing the fist strike collided with was the saber behind him.

The saber's momentum was immediately scattered by the punch, losing all coherence. He couldn't control it, leaving himself wide open. With a bang, his fist slammed heavily into his chest and abdomen.

Whoosh!

A large plume of blood erupted from behind the man, and he was sent flying like a tattered sack, his entire body deformed by the punch.

The leader was stunned by the power of this punch, his pupils contracting sharply. He suddenly roared:

"Run!!!"

From the moment he attacked until now, only a few breaths had passed, and three of his men were already dead.

One of his axes was broken, and there was no way he could fight a monster like Chu Fan.

He squeezed the horse's belly with his legs and charged forward, heading straight for the tea house.

In a flash, he was inside the tea house, roaring:

"Get out of the way!!"

He was yelling at the waiter.

The waiter had been in the tea house, watching the commotion with a trembling body.

He never expected the commotion to come for him.

He hurriedly got up to run, but as he took a step, he found himself directly in front of the charging horse.

The horses of the Iron Horse Seven Bandits were all prized steeds. With a stomp of its hoof, the waiter was kicked out of the tea house before he could even react.

This turn of events was too fast. Although there were experts in the tea house, they couldn't save him in time.

The leading Great Thief urged his horse forward, crashing through the other side of the tea house with a rumble. He immediately turned his horse around and changed direction. He had thrown an axe earlier that had landed in the carriage. He used the tea house as a shortcut to retrieve it. With a reach, the axe was back in his hand.

He immediately galloped away, shouting loudly:

"Chu Fan, I will repay this favor today in the future!!"

"Scoundrel, don't run!!"

Chu Fan's face darkened, unwilling to let him escape.

He then saw the two men who had used grappling hooks to lock his legs also disappear without a trace during this opportune moment.

He hardened his heart and decided to deal with the main culprit first!

"Junior sister!!"

He called out, and Chu Qing heard the woman beside him reply:

"Coming!"

The two of them used their Qinggong and went straight in the direction the leader had fled.

"Well done, second young master of the Chu Family, truly remarkable!"

"A true hero emerging from youth!"

The tea house patrons, seeing that the immediate danger had passed, praised them and then dispersed. This was not a place to linger; it was best to leave.

In a moment, the entire tea house was empty.

No one even glanced at the dead waiter or the bodies of the first person who was chopped to death.

Only the shopkeeper remained, looking dazed, as he approached the waiter who had been kicked to death.

He reached out and patted his face:

"Huzi... Huzi? Get up, they've all left.

"I told you, the ground is cold, it's not good to lie there all the time.

"Your mother sent word through someone just the other day, saying she found you a fiancée. I was thinking these past couple of days that you should go home and get married.

"If you injure yourself like this, it will affect your ability to have children.

"Huzi... Huzi, wake up, don't scare your uncle!"

He nudged the corpse, as if calling out to a sleeping junior to wake up.

But how could a corpse respond?
