20 Chapter 20: Is There Someone Behind You_1
Translator: 549690339
Ye Fan, who was trying hard to hide himself in the back of the crowd, was speechless at the commotion around him.
The law of causality couldn’t be changed after all.
Opportunities come with dangers.
Everything written in the s is real!
With prior preparation, Ye Fan smoothly avoided the crossbow arrows, plus he was not the main target.
Ye Fan, being strong and alert, naturally didn’t have any problems.
The others, however, were not so lucky.
The Sky-breaking Crossbow is a weapon specifically aimed at Martial artists.
Its powerful destructive force can easily pierce through the bodies of mid-term Body Forging Martial artists.
Thud! Thud!
The sound of bodies getting pierced rang out from time to time, accompanied by intermittent wails.
The Martial Artists in the late stages of Body Forging seemed to have no major issues, each of them vigilantly watching their surroundings.
Soon, a group of warriors in powerful armor emerged from the forest.
“I told you these damn things are useless.”
“Blood Hands Xue Ning”, the leader, tossed away the Sky-breaking Crossbow in his hand and spit on the ground.
“Boss, how could they be useless? Didn’t we just kill a bunch?”contemporary romance
His subordinates, looking at the fallen Changhe Town Martial Artist on the ground, chuckled.
“Xue Ning, what are you trying to do?”
Someone quickly recognized Xue Ning’s identity and shouted angrily.
“What I want to do? Isn’t it obvious? I’m robbing you, hand over everything you’ve got.”
Xue Ning looked contemptuously at the many martial artists of Changhe Town.
The Changhe Town Martial Artists turned their heads one after another, looking towards the three leaders at the peak of the ninth level of Body Forging.
The Black Mountain Thieves were the most powerful bandits nearby Changhe Town.
Several of them were in the late stages of Body Forging.
Chief Xue, their leader, was at the peak of the ninth level of Body Forging.
Ordinary families had no power to resist against the Black Mountain Thieves.
They could only look to the few Martial Artists at the late stages of the ninth level of Body Forging, hoping they would take the lead.
“Xue Ning, do you really think your Black Mountain Thieves can take us all? You’re not even close!”
The head of the Iron Armor Martial Arts Hall, Mu Tie, stepped forward.
“Mu Tie, it seems you won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin.”
Xue Ning charged directly at Mu Tie with his fist wrapped in a glove smashing towards Mu Tie.
Forged-Iron Fist!
Mu Tie showed no fear, punching right back at Xue Ning.
A fierce look flashed in Xue Ning’s eyes and a hint of blood appeared on his fist.
Boom!
Mu Tie, upon whom so many hopes were pinned, was thrown out like a ragged sack.
He flew several meters before slamming heavily onto the ground with a dull thud.
“You’re not in the late stage of Body Forging.”
Mu Tie’s eyes were filled with shock. Xue Ning had actually made a breakthrough.
“Who told you I was in the late stage of Body Forging? Now, can you put down your weapons and listen to me?”
Xue Ning looked increasingly insane.
Looking at the fallen Mu Tie, the many families in Changhe Town turned unusually pale.
Xue Ning had actually made a breakthrough.
Even though there is only a minor difference between the peak of Body Forging and the late stage of Body Forging, there is a huge difference in combat capability.
Although the late stage of Body Forging is powerful, they have no ability to resist the vital energy of someone at the peak of Body Forging.
Especially the remaining two at the ninth level, their eyes were filled with fear and jealousy when looking at Xue Ning.
A breakthrough in the late stage of Body Forging symbolizes hope of a breakthrough into the Postnatal Realm.
It was a tiny step, yet it had them stumped for who knows how many years.
“Minions, search for me. Take all the valuable items and then go to Changhe Town. Changhe Town belongs to us, the Black Mountain Thieves, from now on. I suppose none of you would have an objection to this.”
Xue Ning doesn’t care about others’ opinions at all, as inhibition by absolute force makes remaining opinions pointless.
“Surrender your stuff nicely. Don’t make me act. Once you hand over your possessions, you can leave. Just wait for us Black Mountain Thieves to take over Changhe Town.”
The look on Changhe Town Martial Artists’ faces was grim, but they didn’t dare to counter.
At this moment, someone suddenly noticed Ye Fan in the back of the crowd.
“We also have a Peak of Body Forging in Changhe Town, Patriarch Ye is also here.”
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look at Ye Fan.
Although Ye Fan never formally stated that he was at the Peak of Body Forging, there were many assumptions about it in private.
Now in this situation, someone had the intention and pushed Ye Fan to the front.
Of course, it would be best if Ye Fan could defeat the Black Mountain Thieves. If he can’t, they won’t be the ones at a loss anyway.
Ye Fan saw that everyone was looking at him, he thought to himself that this was bad luck.
He knew that things were not that simple.
Xue Ning also noticed Ye Fan, squinting his eyes and staring intently at him.
“Ye Fan, isn’t this the Ye Pharmacist who refined the Boiling Blood elixir?”
Xue Ning did not believe at all that Ye Fan had the strength at the Peak of Body Forging, but he was interested in Ye Fan’s abilities.
The Boiling Blood elixir, Five Complete Powder, these are all money-making items.
“Are you Ye Fan of Ye’s Pharmacy?”
Ye Fan kept silent and did not refute.
“It seems that I am lucky today. I have changed my mind now, others can leave after handing over their things, but Ye Fan has to stay.”
A pharmacist, if controlled by oneself, can generate substantial profits.
Now that he has met Ye Fan, Xue Ning naturally won’t let him go.
“Patriarch Ye, save us.”
“Ye Pharmacist, with your strength, you must be able to defeat Xue Ning.”
…
Many people hope that Ye Fan will take action, and it would be great if he could critically injure Xue Ning in the process.
Everyone wants this Iron Ore Mine, and many people also want the Ye family’s assets.
Ye Fan remained unmoved, considering whether it would be better to just leave.
According to how the scenario is unfolding, if he got rid of the Black Mountain Thieves, would he again fall into a situation where after hitting the son, the father comes for revenge?
Such a scenario completely goes against Ye Fan’s intention to keep a low-profile development.
“Ye Pharmacist, I hope you don’t think about escaping. You wouldn’t want an incident to occur to your family, would you?”
Ye Fan, who was initially calm, suddenly clenched his fists after hearing this.
“All I want is to peacefully develop a family. Why is it so difficult?”
Ye Fan slowly raised his head and showed Xue Ning a big smile.
“Chief Xue, I want to ask, do you Black Mountain Thieves have any strong backers?”
Ye Fan’s words stunned Xue Ning, who answered instinctively: “What strong backup? If we had strong backup, the Black Mountain Thieves would have rushed out of Changhe Town a long time ago. Why would we need to make a move on Changhe Town, draw you all out, and defeat you one by one?”
“I see.” Ye Fan sighed in relief.
“Why are you asking this?” Xue Ning hadn’t caught on yet.
Ye Fan’s smile got even brighter: “Since you’ve confirmed you don’t have any backing, I can feel free to kill you.”
The next moment, Ye Fan made his move.
The light of the blade was raised!
The wild wind arose!
The intent of the blade erupted in an instant, encasing Xue Ning.
Xue Ning felt that the easygoing and refined middle-aged man in front of him had instantly become a bloodthirsty beast.
The influence of heaven and earth made it hard for him to breathe.
Feeling the power of Ye Fan’s long sword, Xue Ning had a premonition.
He wouldn’t be able to block this attack and he would die.
