"No Advanced Psychic over 30 years old?! Grandpa, you're not kidding me, are you? How is that possible? If that's true, it's just too... too monstrous!"

"Now you know what an amazing patron I found for you, right?"

"Hiss--"

Jin Kai gasped deeply; the news his grandfather had told him was so shocking that he couldn't process it all at once.

He seemed to have thought of something soon, and a sinister smile crept onto his lips.

"If I can latch onto such a powerful figure, my strength will surely surpass Jiang Fan's in the future, and I'll crush him under my feet and trample him mercilessly!"

Jin Changfeng shook his head, his eyes filled with disdain and contempt.

"He's just a minor martial arts exam champion, why are you so concerned about him? I've seen plenty of geniuses like him, but they're all just flashes in the pan. He might only ever reach the Third Rank, never making it to the Fourth Rank. But if you can successfully get on the good side of Master Li, your future achievements will definitely be no less than mine."

"Grandpa is right, Jiang Fan is nothing but an ant."

Jin Kai's face was full of undisguised arrogance, as if he could see his glorious moment of reaching the top in the future.

"However, Jiang Fan has offended you twice in a row, showing no respect for the Jin Family. We cannot let this go unpunished." Jin Changfeng's old face suddenly darkened, and he said coldly, "Find a few people to secretly cripple him, so he knows the consequences of offending the Jin Family."

"Cripple Jiang Fan? But he's a prominent figure at school now, and the principal seems to be paying special attention to him. What if it gets discovered? Won't our Jin Family be in trouble?" Jin Kai hesitated.

Jin Changfeng sneered, "What's there to be afraid of? If Jiang Fan is crippled, Yuanwu will only suspect the Li Family family, how could they possibly suspect my Jin Family?"

Upon hearing this, Jin Kai's eyes lit up, and he gave a thumbs up.

"Grandpa is brilliant! Brilliant indeed!"

Everyone in Yuanwu knew about the feud between Jiang Fan and Li Zhichao.

After Li Zhichao went missing, his father, Li Renfeng, immediately came to Yuanwu to cause trouble for Jiang Fan.

If the principal hadn't arrived in time, Jiang Fan would likely have been seriously injured.

Although the Li Family has remained silent during this period, given the vengeful nature of the Li Family father and son, no one believes that this matter will end there.

On the way home from school the next day.

When Jiang Fan was walking through a narrow alley, both his path and the path in front of him were blocked.

They were a group of people wearing Journey to the West masks, including the Bull Demon King, the White Bone Demon, the Black Bear Demon, the Golden Horn King, the Silver Horn King, Wutian, and many others, totaling more than twenty people, spanning parts 1 to 3.

It's unclear whether they were using this strategy intentionally to distract the enemy, or if they genuinely liked their respective roles.

Jiang Fan's attention was indeed drawn, and he scanned the masks on everyone's faces.

Then he spoke.

Who are you people?

"You brat, you killed my young master! Today you'll be crippled!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan immediately thought of Li Zhichao he had buried a thousand meters underground.

Are they from the Li Family? Is the "young master" they're referring to Li Zhichao?

Logically, that shouldn't be possible. Li Zhichao and the other two were buried so deep; they shouldn't have been able to find them.

Did the Li Family possess some special magical artifact that led them to find the person?

Even if the body is found, what grounds are there to suspect that the person committed the murder?

Before Jiang Fan could finish thinking, more than a dozen people rushed towards him.

Meanwhile, not far from the alley entrance, a rather inconspicuous car was parked on the side of the road.

The person sitting in the car was Jin Kai.

He held a glass of red wine in one hand and had his other arm around a scantily clad woman.

The beautiful woman's hands seemed to really like Jin Kai's clothes, constantly stroking them.

"Young Master Jin, someone has their eye on that bag. My best friend already has one, and I want one too."

"Okay, I'm in a good mood today, I'll buy it for you."

As soon as Jin Kai finished speaking, the beautiful woman began to unbutton his shirt.

"Don't rush."

Jin Kai held the beautiful woman's hand, looking at the resentful expression on her face, and said with a smile, "When my men come back, I'll play games with you properly."

"Alright then," the pretty girl said in a pouty, coquettish tone.

Time passed by, minute by minute.

Jin Kai stared anxiously at the alley entrance, wondering why they hadn't come out yet.

To deal with Jiang Fan, he sent a total of more than a dozen thugs.

Due to Jiang Fan's terrifying combat power in fighting beyond his level, he sent people who were all above the Third Rank, including two Martial Artist at the Early-Stage Fourth Rank.

It's important to understand that once Martial Artist's strength reaches the Fourth Rank, a substantial change will occur.

In fact, there was no need to use Early-Stage Fourth Rank Martial Artist to deal with Jiang Fan; it would be a complete waste. However, in order to finish the battle quickly and avoid any unforeseen complications from a prolonged fight, he ultimately brought in Early-Stage Fourth Rank Martial Artist.

And they transferred two people at once.

So much time has passed, why hasn't anyone come out yet?

Logically speaking, Jiang Fan should have been defeated by two Early-Stage Fourth Rank Martial Artist in less than a round; they should have been finished long ago.

Just as Jin Kai and the others were getting increasingly anxious, they finally saw someone emerge from the alleyway.

only--

But it was Jiang Fan who came out.

"How is that possible?!"

Jin Kai's eyes bulged out as he stared intently at Jiang Fan, completely unable to believe his eyes.

What he found most unbelievable was that Jiang Fan was completely unharmed, looking relaxed and carefree, as if nothing had happened.

Unbeknownst to Jin Kai, Jiang Fan had already locked onto him using his Psychic Power.

"So it was him..."

Jin Kai wasn't stupid; he used his personal feud with Li Zhichao as a cover.

Thinking this through, Jiang Fan had no intention of going up to cause trouble for Jin Kai, but instead continued walking home.

Since Jin Kai didn't make a move, if he went to cause trouble for him, the other party could easily distance himself from those people.

Moreover, he had killed all those thugs and buried them 10,000 meters underground. If he were to actively seek out Jin Kai, how would he explain the disappearance of those people?

After Jiang Fan's figure completely disappeared from Jin Kai's sight, Jin Kai couldn't wait to open the car door and run towards the alley entrance.

"Young Master Kai, wait for us!"

Concerned for Jin Kai's safety, the two bodyguards also ran over.

As soon as they caught up, they saw Jin Kai staring blankly at the empty alley.

Where are they?

Why are there none left?

He clearly saw those people walk into the alley, how could they all disappear in the blink of an eye?

Call them! Quickly!

"Yes, yes."

The bodyguard quickly dialed a phone.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is not in service. Please try again later."

"Out of service area?" Jin Kai was both anxious and annoyed. "Keep calling! Call every single one of them!"

Next, Jin Kai heard a constant, repetitive, mechanical sound.
