"Stop!"
Ai Nan finally came to his senses and saw his military sons launch a second suicidal attack on Qin Fang. He immediately let out an angry roar.
Unfortunately... it was a bit too late!
Almost as soon as the words left his mouth, Qin Fang made his second move.
This time, it wasn't just a simple stomp of the foot. His body shifted slightly, and his aura burst forth instantly. The suppression of his Level 4 status was immediately felt as everyone suddenly found their movements sluggish and difficult.
But this was just the beginning for Qin Fang. The real action was yet to come.
Qin Fang's hands circled in front of him slightly, his shoulders dipped gently, and then he spun around swiftly in a large circle, his elbows scraping harshly against the chests of the military sons.
Immediately...
Eight shadows flew into the air almost simultaneously, flung backward as if not by Qin Fang, but by a bomb exploding in their midst, blasted away by the shockwave.
At that moment, it was as if a vacuum had formed around Qin Fang's body, making him look extremely formidable!
"Fuck, that's awesome!"
Li Yang's eyes nearly bulged out, and he couldn't help but lavish his uncensored praise, earning a fierce glare from Chu Yunxuan.
Of course, Chu Yunxuan was extremely excited, perhaps even more so than anyone else.
Why?
Because Qin Fang was her man! Her pride! Of course she was more excited than the others!
Pfft pfft pfft~~
Eight men hit the ground with dull thuds, all of them lying there, moaning with their hands on their chests where Qin Fang's elbows had struck. Their faces showed intense pain, as if they were nearing life's end. It was quite a pitiable sight.
"You..."
Ai Nan had intended to stop his men from ganging up on Qin Fang, but he hadn't expected Qin Fang to be much stronger than he had imagined. All eight were downed in an instant, and seemingly in great pain, as if they had been dealt a severe blow.
This scene erased the slight guilt he had just felt and replaced it with anger towards Qin Fang. After all, these men were his, and Qin Fang had beaten them like this.
"Don't look at me; they're all fine, just pretending..."
Qin Fang didn't give Ai Nan a chance to lose his temper and pointed out the fact directly.
His previous movement seemed forceful, but in reality, he had used controlled skill. The contact might have hurt a bit at the moment, but after the brief pain subsided, there would be no further adverse reactions.
As for the military sons moaning endlessly, they weren't hurt at all. They were either playing dead or hadn't realized this fact and thought they were truly severely injured.
"Eh, it really doesn't hurt anymore..."
Someone, having heard Qin Fang's words, rubbed the spot on his chest that had been hit by the elbow. It felt sore and tingly, but indeed the pain was gone, prompting a surprised outburst.
"I'm not in pain either!"
"Me too!"
"I think I'm also fine..."
With one realizing it, soon there was a second, a third, a fourth. Gradually, everyone found they weren't injured, and their faces showed utter surprise.
Of course, the way they looked at Qin Fang changed once again.
They all knew that it wasn't that Qin Fang lacked strength; on the contrary, it was precisely because he was so skillful. It appeared he had struck them hard, but in reality, he hadn't exerted much force at all.
This level of skill was clearly not on the same tier as these military sons who were still using low-tier moves like the Tortoise Fist.
If Qin Fang had really wanted to beat them, they certainly wouldn't be bouncing around like they were now. The arrogance they had just a moment ago was gone, and their gazes towards Qin Fang contained a mix of fear and admiration.
"This... I'm sorry, I misunderstood you!"
Ai Nan was the sort who could admit his mistakes gracefully. Seeing that his men were unharmed, he realized that he had acted hastily. If he had moved against Qin Fang any sooner, he knew the outcome would surely have been the same as his men's.
"Don't overthink it! We have no deep hatred towards each other. Would I really need to strike that hard?"
Qin Fang just smiled and said,
His tone was still so light and airy, as if there wasn't a trace of anger, giving off the appearance of a very gentle person.
Only now, all these military sons knew that Qin Fang, who seemed gentle, could easily wipe the floor with them if he really got started—whether it was with gunmanship or his fists, they stood no chance against him...not even if they joined forces!
"Right! We have no grudge or enmity between us!"
Upon reflection, Ai Nan realized that was indeed the case; in fact, he was seeing Qin Fang for the first time. How could there be any enmity between them!
The reason the two sides had started a commotion...
At this thought, Ai Nan couldn't help but glance at Chu Yunxuan, who had walked over and nestled beside Qin Fang, his eyes showing a hint of complexity.
However, he was quite magnanimous, quickly revealing a smile to Qin Fang.
"Young Master Qin, to be honest, I, Ai Nan, am truly convinced by you today! A beauty like Dr. Chu needs someone like you to be worthy of her. I admit defeat gracefully! Dr. Chui, I yield her to you..."
Even saying this took considerable courage from Ai Nan. In the Jincheng Military Region, he was Chu Yunxuan's number one suitor.
Before Qin Fang appeared, he had always held an absolute advantage and was the most likely to win the beauty's heart...at least that's what many people thought.
But now, the situation had changed dramatically. Chu Beauty had thrown herself into the arms of the mysterious Qin Fang, leaving all her suitors down and out.
Having demonstrated his formidable strength, Ai Nan was truly and thoroughly convinced of his loss and since the fact was established, of course, he showed his magnanimity...
"...Can you not use the word 'yield'? Yunxuan has always been mine!"
Qin Fang was speechless for a moment before correcting Ai Nan...
"Err...my mistake, she's yours! Hahaha..."
Ai Nan was slightly embarrassed by Qin Fang's words, and in his excitement, he forgot he never managed to win Chu Yunxuan over. From the looks of things, he realized that Chu Yunxuan and Qin Fang seemed to have known each other for a long time and were even lovers... Otherwise, how could he have breached in one night the defenses that so many people couldn't in half a year?
Of course, they could never know the real facts, as neither Qin Fang nor Chun Yunxuan would tell; even Li Yang and Qiao Zhenfei didn't understand how the two got together. In the end, they attributed it to Qin Fang's miraculous courting skills.
"Now we've become friends through fighting! Come on, I'm buying tonight, let's have a few drinks!"
Even though he lost, Ai Nan had untangled the knots in his heart, so he didn't blame Qin Fang. Instead, he found Qin Fang to be agreeable and took the initiative to invite him out.
"This..."
Qin Fang had no objections, but still glanced over at Li Yang.
Li Yang and Ai Nan's relationship wasn't very good—after all, it involved their fathers' standings, and as the younger generation, they couldn't recklessly get involved in it, especially with the troublesome nature of political issues.
"I have no objections, let's all go!"
Li Yang didn't want to make things difficult for Qin Fang and immediately nodded in agreement.
While he and Ai Nan were not on good terms, it was really just young men's competitive spirit, and fundamentally, they had no significant grievances. With Qin Fang acting as a mediator this time, it played a good role in easing the atmosphere, so there was no reason to refuse.
"Let's all go, let's all go..."
Ai Nan didn't dwell on it. Now that he considered Qin Fang a friend and since Li Yang had let go, if he persisted in being difficult, it would make him seem petty. Naturally, he was happy for everyone to enjoy themselves together.
And so, Qin Fang's group inadvertently grew even larger.
The number had expanded to more than a dozen, and these people practically represented a large portion of the notable military sons in the Jincheng Military Region.
Qin Fang had actually been planning to make friends with Ai Nan for quite some time. Although he knew very little about Ai Nan, Qin Fang had noticed one fact: Ai Nan was one of the rare people who belonged to the Righteous Guardian Faction.
To date, using his Scouting Skill, Qin Fang had scanned tens of thousands of people, and the vast majority turned out to be from the Neutral Camp, essentially decent, neutral folks.
There was also a small fraction from the Evil Camp, like Pi San, the assassin Chen Liang, and Yan Kuan of the Iron Hand Sect, all of whom had blood on their hands and extremely high evil points.
An even smaller portion were from the Righteous Guardian Faction. The number of people in this faction was fewer, with Qin Fang's discoveries including only a few individuals—Qin Fang, Chu Yunxuan, and Ai Nan!
Just the three of them standing together right there...
Amongst so many, those from the Righteous Guardian Faction were pitifully few, which spoke volumes about the ratio. Qin Fang had managed to enter the Righteous Guardian Faction, thanks to his deeds of eliminating evil and the Ring of Justice. Another way, with all he had done, he would have been at best Neutrally Camp aligned.
Earning a "righteous" rating from the system was an extremely difficult task.
Chu Yunxuan painstakingly accumulated her status through selflessly healing and saving lives. As for Ai Nan before him... Qin Fang had no idea what great things Ai Nan had done to possess such a high amount of justice points. (To be continued.
