Even if one or two Fifth Rank Martial Artist are not exceptionally strong, the team still needs to cooperate extremely closely.

The young man before them appeared to be only at the Late-Stage Fourth Rank.

However, when facing monsters of the same level, it's like stomping on weaklings.

Moreover, he can quickly defeat even Five Star demonic beasts.

When Ye Qizhen caught up, she saw everyone's jaws drop in astonishment at Jiang Fan's outrageous actions.

She pouted.

It's not their fault. If it were him, and he was unaware of the situation, his reaction would probably be similar.

Back when he was at Fortress No. 31, he was being hunted down by assassins sent by the Church of Justice. When Jiang Fan rescued him while masked, his identity Spirit Master was exposed.

However, this Spirit Master displayed unparalleled physical strength!

They're still the kind of Martial Artist of the same level far behind.

He was utterly shocked at the time.

"I'll help you."

After shouting, Ye Qizhen rushed towards Jiang Fan without hesitation.

With a burst of Psychic Power, he instantly locked onto the fleeing monster, but did not kill it.

Seeing this, Jiang Fan swallowed the words "I don't need your help" that he almost blurted out.

It must be said that, given the inconvenience of using Psychic Power in public when there are outsiders present, having Ye Qizhen's assistance in trapping the monster is quite nice.

" Spirit Master! Ye Qizhen!"

Immediately, someone recognized Ye Qizhen's identity.

But it's not surprising, since almost everyone in Huaxia, from eighty-year-old seniors to three-year-old toddlers, recognizes Ye Qizhen's face.

But that's only on television and online media channels. If you were to actually meet them in person, you'd probably have to think twice.

After all, there are many people who look alike, and there are even quite a few fans who imitate them as cosplayers.

Wow! It really is Ye Qizhen!

"Wait, who's that kid with Ye Qizhen? He looks kind of familiar."

Having weathered the crisis, the woman in charge no longer showed fear in her eyes; instead, her gaze towards Jiang Fan was filled with curiosity.

Although Jiang Fan was not as well-known as Ye Qizhen, Spirit Master, in the eyes of the world, he was still very popular and his identity was quickly recognized by these people.

"Ah! I remember now, he seems to be that genius from Fortress No. 31! This year's martial arts champion!"

"Yay, ya--" The leading woman smiled, her eyes crinkling, and her gaze toward Jiang Fan grew increasingly ardent.

"It really is him! I didn't expect him to be so unphotogenic. He's much more handsome in person than in photos and videos."

The woman next to her nudged the woman in charge with her elbow, her eyes full of mockery.

"Are you falling for her?"

"Hehehe, guess!" The woman in the lead laughed until her eyes disappeared.

Thanks to the combined efforts of Jiang Fan and Ye Qizhen, not a single demonic beast managed to escape.

" Old Jiang, our teamwork is flawless, isn't it? How about we consider my previous suggestion and team up?" Ye Qizhen said.

Jiang Fan sheathed his broadsword, his tone slightly disdainful.

"To be honest, your Psychic Power is still a bit low. It's just that you didn't encounter many demonic beasts, and few of them were high-level. If there were even a dozen or so Five Star demonic beasts, your ability to control them would be pitifully weak."

Despite his complaints, he had to admit that with Ye Qizhen's help, he really enjoyed the killing spree.

Even without outsiders present, with Spirit Master assisting him, he wouldn't need to be distracted by restraining the fleeing monsters.

Moreover, it allows for greater freedom of action, without the need for precautions, enabling a more enjoyable and satisfying killing spree.

"My Psychic Power is low? Please, I'm only 18 years old, not even 19 yet, and I'm already Intermediate Psychic! Looking at the history of the Great Xia Great Xia, and even the whole world, how many people can achieve what I have?" Ye Qizhen said unconvinced.

Jiang Fan pointed to himself and said calmly, "Me, 17, Advanced Psychic. Am I arrogant?"

"..."

At this moment, Ye Qizhen felt a strong urge to hit someone.

At this moment, the woman in the lead walked over with her companions.

"Thank you for saving us. If it weren't for you, we would all be food for these beasts today."

"It's nothing, just a small favor."

As Jiang Fan spoke, he glanced at the woman in the lead several times, seemingly intentionally.

It really looks like it!

"Um, you're Jiang Fan, right?"

The woman in the lead brushed a stray hair behind her ear as she spoke, a shy expression on her face.

"Mm." Jiang Fan nodded.

My name is Wang Shuhe.

Surname Wang?

She even bears a resemblance to Wang Yao...

It seems his previous guess was quite plausible.

"Are you from the Pill Pavilion?"

Upon hearing Jiang Fan's question, Wang Shuhe's face showed a hint of surprise.

How do you know I'm from the Pill Pavilion? Have you seen me before?

They really are from the Wang Family of the Pill Pavilion.

"Your surname is Wang, and I just saw you and your companion take out quite a few Body Restoration Pill, so I guessed that," Jiang Fan said.

"I see." Wang Shuhe immediately changed the subject, asking, "I have no way to repay your life-saving grace. Please leave me your contact information so I can repay you in the future."

When Wang Shuhe said this, her face flushed red, and her ears turned as red as boiled shrimp. Anyone with eyes could see that she had fallen for Jiang Fan.

"Tsk tsk! Old Jiang, what are you standing there for? A beautiful woman is asking for your contact information," Ye Qizhen said with a wink.

Jiang Fan rolled her eyes at him. "Your tone sounds a bit sour."

"There's some truth to that. You know, before you existed, I was the one who got asked for contact information."

As Ye Qizhen said this, she touched her face.

"He's not as handsome as me."

Heh, Jiang Fan sneered inwardly. This guy was actually quite narcissistic.

Just as Jiang Fan was internally complaining, a burly man with a bushy beard walked over and looked at Ye Qizhen shyly.

That person also wants your contact information.

These words startled Ye Qizhen so much that her hair stood on end, and goosebumps rose from her head to her toes.

"Hehehe..." Jiang Fan couldn't hold back any longer and said with a smile, "You are indeed more charming than me."

Ye Qizhen glared at Jiang Fan fiercely. Would you want that kind of charm?

"I'm leaving." Jiang Fan turned around decisively, without any hesitation, leaving as quickly and cleanly as possible.

"Don't go!" Wang Shuhe cried anxiously, trying to catch up with him.

Jiang Fan merely turned his head slightly, "Don't follow me."

A single sentence made Wang Shuhe stop in her tracks.

Because of this delay, Jiang Fan disappeared into the dense forest.

"Still looking? They're all gone now," the girl next to him teased.

"Yes, I know." Wang Shuhe continued to look at him with lingering affection.

The girl complained again, "If you were so reluctant to leave, why didn't you follow me earlier?"
