11: Come on, try to move me.
Lin Xianhuo, holding Ding Dong's hand, rushed out of the alley, her face trembling beneath her black robe.
At this moment, she felt a suffocating sensation, and even her breathing became disordered.
She was a Genius, a Genius from the Imperial Capital!
And then what?
Now, she could only watch someone whose Realm was lower than hers stand before her, helping her fend off two opponents she couldn't possibly defeat!
Her pride was utterly shattered at this moment.
When Xiao Fan activated Element Overlap like a madman, she knew, compared to him, what kind of Genius was she? She was utterly useless.
Just a cowardly deserter!
She suddenly began to resent herself for leaving so decisively back then, not leaving any trump cards behind. Otherwise, calling her family now would instantly resolve all problems.
She could only run, run frantically; only then could her heart feel a little better.
… …
What about Xiao Fan?
He was not flustered at all, because he had hundreds of Cultivation Techniques in his body, all taking effect simultaneously, like lubricant; one drop was useless, but hundreds of drops had a good effect.
The three forces, in fact, were not completely compatible and were subtly separated.
Xiao Fan was not someone who would sacrifice his life to save others.
He was as steady as an old dog.
But on the surface?
“Come on!” Xiao Fan roared, chasing the two frantically.
Pang Hu couldn't hold back, veins bulging on his forehead, and he turned and threw a punch.
“Bang!”
Fists collided, and both retreated more than ten steps.
Pang Hu roared, “How could I, your old man, be scared away by a little brat like you?!”
“I’ll take your surname if I am!”
Huang Meng, on the side, quickly said, “Don’t do it, it’s not worth it!”
“Brother, don’t mind me. I’m going all out today, at worst, we die together!” A fierce glint appeared in Pang Hu’s eyes.
His talent was also average, only Six-Star, but he was ruthless and fearless, which was why he could reach his current position.
Xiao Fan’s heart sank, thinking it was bad.
He thought it would be enough to scare them away.
Because if they fought, the influx of external forces could easily destabilize the power within him and cause him to explode.
Pang Hu charged like a madman, and Xiao Fan suddenly raised his hand and shouted, “Wait!”
Pang Hu paused, frowning, “What do you want?”
“I’m telling you, don’t touch me!” Xiao Fan took a deep breath and said, “If you don’t touch me, I can still control it. If you touch me, I might really explode!”
“What do you mean? Are you threatening me!?” Pang Hu was even more furious.
He was about to smash a fist towards Xiao Fan’s face.
Xiao Fan quickly looked at Huang Meng and shouted, “If you don’t stop him, we’ll all die!”
Huang Meng was not as reckless as Pang Hu and quickly stepped forward to pull him back, saying, “No, no, no!”
“Ah Hu, it’s really not worth it!”
“My son’s hand can still be reattached!”
“We can talk things out nicely. Dying like this isn’t worth it!”
Pang Hu was furious and said, “Then, Big Brother, are we just going to bow down to a little brat like this?”
“Look at the scars on this guy’s body. He looks young, but will he actually be a simple character!?” Huang Meng roared.
“This is also a ruthless person, like you when you were young! But we’re not young anymore!”
“You already have a wife and children now; you can’t act so carelessly with your life. If you die, what will your wife and children do?!”
This time, Pang Hu was persuaded.
On the empty street, the three stood motionless, staring at each other, maintaining a safe distance.
Huang Meng pulled Pang Hu behind him and said coldly, “You’re very smart, I really can’t touch you!”
“Alright, we’ll just keep this stalemate!”
“But I want to know, why did you cut off my son’s hand?!”
Xiao Fan said coldly, “An ignorant little girl came to the black market to buy anti-cancer medicine for her grandmother. Your son wanted to assault her. I couldn’t stand it, so I dealt with your son! Any problem?”
Huang Meng scoffed, “Foolish kindness!”
“Damn it, what if your grandmother had cancer?!” Xiao Fan roared.
Huang Meng took a deep breath and responded without weakness, “It’s precisely to avoid being so useless in the future that I’ve reached this position today!”
“With me, there is no ‘if’!”
Xiao Fan grinned and said, “I like enemies like you!”
“By the way, let me tell you, your capable subordinate, Black Butcher, has already been killed by me!”
“Damn it!” Huang Meng roared, “I’m telling you, even if you survive today, I’ll find you sooner or later! And kill you!”
“Are you a damn queer?!” Xiao Fan cursed.
“You’re the damn queer, I meant I’m going to beat you to death!” Huang Meng cursed back.
Xiao Fan sneered, “From now on, I’ll stay with that fire-wielding girl every day, like conjoined twins. The moment I see you, I’ll activate Element Overlap. What are you going to do about it?”
“Why are you so despicable?!” Huang Meng was exasperated.
Both sides were in a stalemate.
Xiao Fan simply accessed the System! He glanced at the three optional Cultivation Techniques and was a little disappointed.
He had thought he could choose any Cultivation Technique, but it turned out the System offered him three to choose from!
Surprise!
There was an amplification-type one, increasing strength—《Iron Arm》!
After selecting it, he immediately began to Cultivate!
“Ding, Iron Arm Cultivation progress — 1%.”
At this moment!
Xiao Fan found that his lubricant was almost evaporated, he couldn't hold on much longer, but they should have run far enough by now.
So…
“Goodbye!” Xiao Fan snorted coldly, turned, and quickly ran away.
Huang Meng roared, “Chase him!”
“He’s about to collapse!”
The two quickly followed, but when Xiao Fan disappeared into the sewer, they immediately lost him.
Huang Meng covered his nose and cursed.
“What kind of dog thing runs into the sewer?!”
“Fucking disgusting!”
“Forget it, we’ll find him tomorrow!”
“Let’s go, Ah Hu, we’re going home!”
The leader of Green Leaf City’s largest underground force was furious that night.
Because he was actually tricked by a little brat!
This was simply a great humiliation.
But luckily, he had a good memory and immediately began to draw a portrait, sending all his subordinates out to find out where Xiao Fan lived!
Xiao Fan had also already released all his power at this time, feeling very uneasy.
Damn it.
He overdid it!
That guy had so many subordinates, they would definitely find him if they looked every day.
Oh, so annoying!
Xiao Fan squatted in a dark alley at the street corner, sighed, picked up his phone, and reluctantly dialed a number.
“Beep beep beep…”
The phone rang three times before it was picked up.
“Xiao Fan! You actually called me voluntarily!”
Shao Yan’s shy voice came from the other end of the phone.
Xiao Fan’s expression stiffened and he said, “You haven’t had too much to drink again, have you?”
“Don’t worry, today is a goddess gathering, all girls, no need for you to take me home!” Shao Yan chuckled.
“Speak, you never call without a reason. What do you need from me?”
Xiao Fan sighed and said, “I chopped off the hand of Huang Meng’s son, the black market boss’s son!”
“He saw my true face, and he’ll definitely be looking for me everywhere tomorrow!”
“Oh, you messed up, why?” Shao Yan asked curiously.
“To save a little girl.”
“Who?”
“Is that the point?”
“Oh, I’m just curious.”
“I think her name was Ding Dong?”
“What!?” Shao Yan was startled and said, “Is it the one who likes to wear a blue skirt?”
“You know her?”
“I know her!” Shao Yan quickly said, “Why did she go to the black market?”
“To buy anti-cancer medicine.” Xiao Fan sighed.
“She’s truly a stubborn little girl, sigh. I found her before and offered her money, but she refused!” Shao Yan said helplessly.
“How do you know that little girl?” Xiao Fan was also somewhat shocked; Green Leaf City was actually this small.
Shao Yan whispered, “This involves a huge secret, you must never tell anyone!”
“Forget it, I don’t want to hear it.” Xiao Fan quickly shook his head.
“No, you have to listen!”
“Damn it, why would I listen to this secret?” Xiao Fan was helpless.
“Hehe, I’ll just tell you directly, I’m telling you, Ding Dong… possesses Myth-Grade talent!”
“What!?” Xiao Fan shrieked, “Holy crap?!”
“Are you jealous now?” Shao Yan chuckled, then her voice became sad, “Her parents died in the war years ago, and only an old person is left in her family.”
“Years ago, she went for a talent test and was found to have no talent, but her grandmother asked someone to call me, saying Ding Dong was very powerful and could make plants grow quickly.”
“So I went to take a look.”
“As it turned out, it was because her talent was too high to be detected.”
“Mythic: Ten Thousand Things Birth.”
“Oh my god…” Xiao Fan was truly, both joyful and regretful, saying, “That’s not right, with a talent like Ten Thousand Things Birth, saving her grandmother shouldn’t be difficult, right?”
“Excluding cancer, it’s actually… just dying of old age.” Shao Yan also sighed continuously.
“If you hadn’t intervened today, if her Mythic talent had Awakened and gone berserk, that would have been the real trouble.”
“I previously made a pact with her that after she takes care of her grandmother, she would come to the academy to study, not to waste this talent. She agreed.”
“Now it seems… it’s almost time, at most, she’ll be in the next batch after you.”
“Alright, then I’ll go find Huang Meng now. I’ll solve this matter for you.”
“Okay.” Xiao Fan nodded and said, “Thank you.”
“Hmph, I’m telling you, I don’t easily help others, you know.”
Xiao Fan retorted without hesitation, “Then next time you drink too much, go home by yourself.”
“You’re so despicable!” Shao Yan angrily hung up the phone.
