Honda Ryuichi's life or death now hinges entirely on Honda Tsubasa's decision.

As Honda Ryuichi looked at her with fear, Honda Tsubasa turned to Xu Fan for help.

She truly didn't know how to decide.

"This matter must be decided by you alone."

Xu Fan did not decide for Honda Tsubasa. Though Honda Ryuichi was indeed a scoundrel, he was still Honda Tsubasa's father.

Whether it be life or death, Xu Fan believed that Honda Tsubasa needed to handle it personally.

Moreover, now that she had become an Alliance Hierarch in the Dongying Martial Arts World, such decisions would become more frequent in the future. She would have to take this step sooner or later.

...

Everyone was waiting for her answer. Honda Tsubasa took a deep breath and looked at Honda Ryuichi.

She quietly observed the growing fear in Honda Ryuichi's eyes for quite a while before speaking.

"Honda Ryuichi, from now on, I hope you will behave yourself."

"Otherwise, next time, I will show no mercy."

"What?"

This... is forgiveness?

With all the wrongs he had committed, Honda Ryuichi thought he was bound to die today. Yet, he somehow got forgiven?

However, it seemed this would be his only chance...

Looking at Honda Tsubasa's dazzling figure on the stage, Honda Ryuichi couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

This time, he was completely defeated, with no chance of rising again.

Moreover, his relationship with Honda Tsubasa was thoroughly severed...

"Alright, let's end things here for today, everyone, let's disperse."

Without considering whether Honda Tsubasa's decision satisfied everyone present, Xu Fan waved his hand, signaling the others to disperse.

Xu Fan wasn't interested in meddling too deeply in how Honda Ryuichi was handled.

This was Honda Tsubasa's decision, and he chose to respect it.

"Alright, you must be tired this time, let's go."

Watching many prominent figures heading out of the dojo, Xu Fan patted Honda Tsubasa's shoulder and led her off the stage.

Immediately, they departed the Akiaka Dojo, walking alongside Miyamoto Kuroichi and his group.

"Master, has everything been sorted?"

As Xu Fan's group exited the Akiaka Dojo, Song Xiaozhu hurriedly approached.

He had caught snippets while the eminent figures exited the dojo, indicating that Honda Tsubasa had won the position of Alliance Hierarch in the competition.

Since his interests were already tied with Xu Fan, Song Xiaozhu was naturally thrilled to hear the news.

However, to confirm the authenticity of this information, he cautiously asked Xu Fan.

"Yes, sorted."

Seeing Song Xiaozhu's expectant gaze, Xu Fan nodded and said, "From today on, you must do your best to assist Honda Tsubasa."

"Of course!"

Upon hearing Xu Fan's courteous words, Song Xiaozhu excitedly shouted!

Xu Fan didn't need to remind him to handle things well.

With Honda Tsubasa leading the Dongying Martial Arts World and being Xu Fan's woman, Song Xiaozhu was acutely aware of the benefits involved!

With exhilaration etched across his face as he looked at Xu Fan, Song Xiaozhu increasingly felt that his decision was right.

He truly had found a powerful ally this time!

"Alright, if there's anything, let's talk later."

Though Honda Tsubasa had easily handled the previous encounter with the family disciples, fighting so many people consecutively had indeed been exhausting.

Xu Fan wanted Honda Tsubasa to rest, so he greeted Song Xiaozhu and immediately drove away, leaving Akiaka Dojo.

...

Soon after, Xu Fan's group returned to the villa.

Xu Fan led Honda Tsubasa inside the villa.

"How about you rest for a while?"

"Okay, I'll go to my room first."

The family competition was exhausting both physically and mentally, requiring time to recover.

Understanding this, Xu Fan personally escorted Honda Tsubasa into her room.

"Would you like something to drink?"

All the way to her bedroom, Xu Fan showered her with attentive care, which Honda Tsubasa surely sensed.

"Xu Fan."

She proactively embraced Xu Fan.

She knew Xu Fan's concern was likely due to fear that she might not move past the recent tournament events.

"Rest assured, it's all over, I won't dwell on it."

The day's family competition had indeed greatly impacted her.

But she wouldn't be defeated.

In fact, Honda Tsubasa felt she had grown substantially this time.

"If that's really what you think, then great."

"You must know, in my heart, you're more important than any title."

Xu Fan gently caressed Honda Tsubasa's back as he spoke.

This tender attitude warmed Honda Tsubasa's heart.

With this assurance, all she had done felt worthwhile.

She was a woman of modest desires and always regarded Xu Fan the same way.

"If you still feel bad, I can offer comfort in any way..."

"You're bad..."

Feeling emotional, a warm breath brushed her ear.

Sensing the close male presence, Honda Tsubasa blushed and softened, like melted wax, in Xu Fan's embrace.

"Everything I have is yours, if you wish, I... I'm here any time..."

Xu Fan had announced her status to the entire Dongying Martial Arts World during the tournament.

Xu Fan's woman.

Honda Tsubasa's heart raced and welcomed the idea of offering herself to Xu Fan.

"Ahem..."

With a soft beauty in his arms feeling tender like a jade, Xu Fan couldn't help but feel a burning desire.

"We'll talk later tonight..."

Ultimately, Xu Fan resisted the urge, knowing there were still many people waiting outside.

If he indulged in passion now, who knew how long those outside would wait?

After a brief affectionate moment, Xu Fan said, "Alright, today has tired you out, you should rest, I'll step out."

"Okay, go ahead."

Once he saw Honda Tsubasa was settled in bed, Xu Fan turned around and headed towards the door.

Upon opening it, he saw a figure stumble forward, right into his arms.

"Oh? Mai, what are you sneaking around listening to?"

The person glimpse merely looked like Asao Mai. Xu Fan mischievously teased her.

"I... I was just passing by... Just passing by..."

Perhaps embarrassed to admit she had followed secretly, Asao Mai blushed and casually tried to slip away from Xu Fan's embrace.

"Hmph, do you think I'd let you leave just like that?"
