Jiang Fan's 3121P Psychic Power allowed him to break through the current range of his perception once again.
He calmed his mind and focused his spirit, radiating Psychic Power as he wandered around the neighborhood.
Soon, he heard a child crying in a house, and the husband was yelling irritably at his wife, "I've worked all day, I'm exhausted! Can't you do something about him?!"
The woman complained, "He's not even a month old yet, how am I supposed to manage him? Tell him to shut up? Would he even listen?"
Then the two started arguing loudly, and the child cried hysterically.
Jiang Fan turned his gaze and entered another house. Before he could even look around, the man turned off the light, and then he heard his wife say that he was really useless, that it was over as soon as the light was off.
Jiang Fan kept manipulating his Psychic Power to move around, not because he had any quirks or liked to listen to other people's private matters, but simply to practice his familiarity with manipulating his Psychic Power.
He sat on the bed, withdrew his Psychic Power, slowly opened his eyes, a smile playing on his lips, his eyes brimming with joy.
The feeling of Zhuge Wolong, living in seclusion in Longzhong yet knowing everything under heaven, is truly exhilarating.
Therefore, he increasingly looked forward to a breakthrough in his Psychic Power.
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly sensed two highly skilled people approaching his house.
Although the two people were well-covered, it didn't prevent Jiang Fan from seeing their faces clearly using his Psychic Power.
It was them.
Jiang Fan recognized the two men at a glance; they were the Late-Stage Martial Apprentice bodyguards that Jiang Qifeng had brought with him during the day.
It seems that Jiang Qifeng suffered a setback with Wei Cangyue, but dared not make a scene, so he sent someone to sneak in and teach him a lesson.
Thinking of this, Jiang Fan came out of the room, pushed open the courtyard gate, and walked outside.
The two bodyguards, both wearing masks, exchanged a glance.
What is he doing going out so late?
Who knows? Maybe they're going to find ghosts?
He walked towards the woods.
"Isn't this the perfect opportunity to make our move? No matter how loud the commotion, no one will notice."
The two of them chatted as they quietly followed behind Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan stopped after he had gone deeper into the woods.
"Come out."
Both bodyguards were taken aback. Had they been discovered?
How is that possible?
They are all professionally trained bodyguards and thugs who have secretly committed countless murders and robberies, yet they have never been caught in a trap.
Jiang Fan, with only the Early-Stage Martial Apprentice level, how could he have discovered them?
Just as the two were thinking this, Jiang Fan's voice rang out again.
"Those hiding behind the sycamore trees, and those lying in the grass, come out!"
The two men's expressions changed drastically; they had really been discovered! He even knew their hiding place perfectly—how did he manage that?
After the initial shock, the two emerged from their respective hiding places.
Before they could do anything, Jiang Fan said, "You were all sent by Jiang Qifeng, weren't you?"
He found out too?!
The two exchanged another glance, noticing each other's disguises. Only their eyes were visible; the rest of their bodies were completely covered. Moreover, it was nighttime, and although there was moonlight, it was very dim tonight.
Furthermore, they were more than ten meters away from Jiang Fan; how could they possibly see their faces clearly?
Does Jiang Fan have X-ray vision?
Jiang Fan faced the two men calmly. "Speak," he said, "Did Jiang Qifeng send you here to kill me and silence me, or to teach me a lesson?"
Seeing that his scheme had been exposed, the bodyguard stopped trying to conceal his identity and pulled down his mask.
" Jiang Fan, don't blame us. Blame yourself for overestimating yourself, insisting on going against the Jiang Family, and even interrupting the Jiang Family head's most precious son. We're paid to do this, so you obediently let us break your two legs, and we won't touch anything else."
"I understand. I broke Jiang Youtian's legs, so Jiang Qifeng wanted to retaliate in kind, making me pay with two legs."
"That's right, so I'll say it again: if you cooperate, you'll suffer less when we dismember your legs. But if you insist on resisting, don't blame us for making things bloody."
Jiang Fan's expression remained unchanged despite their threats.
"Judging from how familiar you are with this, you must have done this kind of thing quite a few times before, right?"
"Haha! That's right, doing these kinds of jobs is just routine for us, so--" Before the bodyguard could finish his boastful words, Jiang Fan coldly interrupted him.
"So you can all go die now."
As that cold, ruthless voice fell, Jiang Fan pushed off the ground with one foot, and in the next second, the enormous explosive force propelled him to the side of the two bodyguards in an instant.
The two bodyguards were terrified; they never expected Jiang Fan to unleash such terrifying power.
Jiang Fan unleashed a double punch, striking the two men in the abdomen with lightning speed.
"Ah--ah--" A scream rang out, and the two were sent flying backward, their backs slamming into the tree trunk, writhing in excruciating pain.
They looked at the boy standing there, the cool moonlight shining on him, as if draping him in a mysterious veil, making him impossible to see through.
How could that be?
Isn't Jiang Fan at the Early-Stage Martial Apprentice?
But the burst of energy Jiang Fan just unleashed was definitely not at the level of Early-Stage Martial Apprentice.
Middle-Stage Martial Apprentice!
Moreover, he far surpasses Jiang Youtian, who has just been promoted to the Middle-Stage Martial Apprentice!
Upon reaching this conclusion, the two were both shocked.
However, there was no limit to how shocking it could get.
They then saw two F-grade alloy load-bearing rings slowly rising, suspended in mid-air.
At that moment, a tremendous storm surged through their hearts!
Spirit Master! Jiang Fan is Spirit Master!
he--
"Thud!" The sound of the weighted rings sinking into their foreheads brought them to a halt.
Jiang Fan dug a hole on the spot and buried the two of them in the soil.
After doing all this, he acted as if nothing had happened, went home, went to his room, and fell asleep immediately.
Jiang Fan slept soundly and deeply, while everyone at the Jiang Family's side waited for the bodyguard's reply.
Jiang Qifeng glanced at the clock on the wall and frowned. "What's going on? Why isn't there any news at all? Logically speaking, with their strength, dealing with Early-Stage Martial Apprentice should be as easy as a high school student bullying a kindergarten student. But now, not only is there no news, we can't even contact them."
Jiang Hongyuan said, "Dad, don't worry, this is definitely a done deal. As for not being able to get through on the phone, it's probably because the signal is too bad in the slums."
"That makes sense."
Jiang Qifeng nodded and then looked at Jiang Youtian's legs.
How are your legs feeling now?
Jiang Youtian replied, "He's almost fully recovered, Dad. Is this really the right thing to do? After all, Jiang Fan your own son. Breaking his legs—"
"Alright!" Jiang Qifeng interrupted Jiang Youtian unhappily and began to criticize him sternly.
