ong ball in his hand. The stone shimmered with silvery light, it was clearly a spirit stone.Ye Bufan was both surprised and delighted. He had seen records about spirit stones in the inheritance, these...Hua Manlou said, "Don't worry, I just asked Lao Zhang to teach that kid a lesson, I won't take his life."

"Dad, how could you do this"

Although Huaruyi let out a sigh of relief, she was still filled with anger.

"How dare you treat him like that If you hurt my brother Xiao Fan, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life!"

"Damn it, how dare you speak to my father like that"

Huo Manlou was also angered by his daughter, "If you continue to be so stubborn, believe me, I'll call Lao Zhang right now and have him kill that boy!"

"I..."

Hua Ru Yu originally wanted to argue, but now she didn't dare say a word, afraid that her father would really kill Ye Bu Fan.

"That kid is arrogant and conceited, blind to everything. He'll get what's coming to him sooner or later, he might even lose his life. Giving him a lesson would be doing him a favor..."

Hua Manlou was talking eloquently when suddenly the door was flung open with a bang, and Lao Zhang stumbled in.

"This..."

Seeing Lao Zhang, he was startled and reached out to help him sit down on the sofa next to him.

Reaching out to feel the other person's pulse, I immediately sensed a chaotic energy. They were clearly gravely injured, but thankfully not fatally wounded.

"Lao Zhang, what happened to you Who hurt you like this"

Hua Manlou was filled with anger. No matter what, Lao Zhang was his steward. Even if you were to hit a dog, you should look at the owner first. This was slapping him in the face.

In his mind, the perpetrator was most likely some other faction from the Stick Country. As for Ye Bufan, he didn't even think about it. A weakling like him couldn't possibly have injured a master!

"Master, we were all mistaken. That boy is a master."

Huamanlou was instantly stunned: "What do you mean Was it that boy who hurt you"

Lao Zhang nodded and recounted the events from beginning to end, finally saying: "I struck him with a palm, he was unharmed while I suffered internal injuries. His cultivation is truly formidable."

"In my opinion, he is worthy of standing beside the master."

Upon hearing that Ye Bufan was alright, Hua Ruoyu first felt shock, followed by immense joy.

She never would have thought that the random shield she found would be such a master, even defeating Zhang Bo.

"Impossible! How is this possible! He's just a kid in his twenties, how could he possibly have such strong Qi"

Huo Manlou shook his head repeatedly, he just couldn't believe that Ye Bufan was a Heavenly Realm expert.

Old Zhang's heart was filled with bitterness: "I don't believe it, but..."

Huamanlou folded his arms behind him and paced in the room, then said, "Lao Zhang, you must have been tricked by that boy"

Old Zhang was stunned: "This can't be possible!"

In my opinion, the boy must have either cultivated a special technique with extremely strong defense, or he was originally a body cultivator.

He's either severely wounded and just barely holding on, fooling you.

In short, it's impossible for him to reach my level of cultivation at his age. Even if he started practicing from the womb, he wouldn't have such a high level of skill.

"Oh! That's probably it!"

Lao Zhang was completely dumbfounded now. His intuition told him that the young man was a master, but his rationality told him that the head of the family's analysis made sense and should be the way it was.

"Well, let's not talk about him for now. The most urgent thing is to set a date for Yu's wedding."

Huamanlou attached great importance to this marriage alliance and turned back to his daughter, saying, "From now on, you will stay in the hotel honestly and not go anywhere. You are not allowed to contact that boy."

Hua Ru Yu let out a cold snort in protest, then she remembered that she had forgotten to get Ye Bufan's contact information. Now, even if she wanted to reach out, she couldn't.

Ye Bufan left the small park and walked forward. He originally wanted to call another car, but this location was indeed rather remote, and after searching for a long time, he couldn't find a taxi.

At that moment, a sudden flurry of engine noise erupted. A bright red Maserati sports car sped past from the front, followed closely by four or five black sedans.

At first, he thought it was a wealthy family outing, but then he realized something was wrong. That Maserati was clearly trying to escape, and those cars behind were chasing after it.

As expected, a black sedan quickly pulled up ahead and blocked the way. The vehicles behind then formed a ring around them.

With a deafening crash, the Maserati collided with the other car and came to a halt.

The car door opened, and a tall girl stepped out and ran away.

Several people jumped out of the cars, a dozen or so in total. Leading them was another young woman around twenty years old. The rest were all burly men dressed in black.

"Chase her, don't let that bitch get away, kill her, I want her dead!"

That young woman shrieked sharply, her voice brimming with excitement and a menacing grin etched on her face as she barked orders at her subordinates.

And the dozen or so black-clad men under her command immediately ran after the woman ahead.

The woman running ahead had blood on her forehead and stumbled as she ran, clearly injured from the recent collision.

However, it's clear she has some martial arts foundation; her speed isn't slow.

As she ran closer to the park, a figure in black suddenly appeared behind her. With a flick of his wrist, a cold glint flashed as a flying knife whistled through the air, plunging into her heart with a thud.

Now the woman could no longer hold on, stumbled out for several steps and fell with a thud at Ye Bufan's feet.

Finally, she struggled to her feet and cried out desperately, "Run! Run away! That wicked woman will kill you..."

The woman originally wanted to remind Ye Bufan to escape, but suddenly her expression froze. She exclaimed in shock, "It's you"

At the same time, Ye Bufan also recognized the woman before him. It was Li Zhixuan, who had challenged traditional Chinese medicine in China.

Back then, this woman's challenge of acupuncture on a copper man with her skillful hands holding the needles amazed everyone. However, she never expected to meet again in such a situation.

Even if he recognized Lee Zhixuan, Ye Bufan had no intention of helping.

Although the two weren't enemies, they certainly weren't friends either. And besides, this was just an internal struggle within Bānbānguó, what did it have to do with him

He just wants to watch the show from the sidelines and see these people fight amongst themselves.

But just as he was stunned, the woman behind him had already come up with her men, encircling the two of them in the middle.

"My dear sister, why haven't you run away"

That woman let out a shrill laugh, her face full of arrogance and triumph.

"Hahaha, the eldest miss of the Li family, the heir to Li Corporation, your father's most beloved daughter, how could you have never imagined ending up like this today"

A flash of despair crossed Lee Ji-hyeon's eyes, and he then said, "Lee Ji-hee, the one you want to kill is me. I have nothing to do with him. Let him go."

Ye Bufan was slightly taken aback, not expecting that at this moment, the woman before him would still be thinking of him.

"Let him go Don't be delusional! Anyone who knows the secrets of our Li family wouldn't live to see another day!"

Lee Ji-hee's gaze then fell on Ye Bufan, a sinister smile playing on her lips.

"My dear sister, if I'm not mistaken, this should be your boyfriend, right I thought you were truly pure and innocent, but I didn't expect you to secretly keep such a young lover. "

"It seems you're quite fond of this fellow. Well, I'll kill him right before your eyes, let you watch, and then send you to join him."e enough, he's a turtle with its head tucked in, daring not to retort while sounding so pompous."Luo Tianyang burst into laughter again. In his eyes, this man before him was nothing but cowardly and a...
