Based on the look in his eyes, Lin Fan could tell that this person wasn't a good person either.
However, even when this person approached him while cracking his knuckles, he didn't feel any fear at all.
Lin Fan had something that no one else in this world had, his Appraisal Eyes.
As soon as he looked at this man, he had seen through his cultivation level.
Third Qi Gathering Level.
This would have been a problem for him if it was a few days ago, but now it wasn't a problem at all.
Lin Fan looked right into the cold eyes of the leader of the guards and said, "Masters that raise a dog determines how they turn out. It seems like you really are trash just like your master."
Hearing this, the leader of the guards immediately revealed an even colder look as he said, "You really don't know what's good for you. But that's fine, I'll teach you a lesson that you won't forget."
Without a single moment of hesitation, the leader of the guards charged out at Lin Fan.
He brandished his fist and gathered his spiritual energy before punching out at Lin Fan.
He hadn't been able to sense any traces of spiritual energy from Lin Fan, so in a normal situation, he would have held back and not used his spiritual energy. After all, he didn't want to kill people since that wasn't the right way to teach them a lesson. It was much easier to teach them a lesson if they were still alive.
But now that this child had dared to anger him, he didn't feel like holding back.
If he killed him, he killed him. If he didn't, then he would teach him another lesson.
So the leader of the guards punched right out at Lin Fan, aiming the punch at his chest.
However, Lin Fan skillfully pushed Yue Lan back to Xiao Yue before twisting to dodge that attack. After dodging past that fist, Lin Fan raised a hand and grabbed the wrist of the fist flying past him.
The leader of the guards revealed a shocked look when he saw this, clearly not expecting Lin Fan to dodge this, let alone catch his wrist like this.
When he was about to say something, he suddenly felt a chill coming from his wrist.
The leader of the guard quickly looked down at his wrist to see that the hand holding his wrist was covered in a blue glow. It was this blue glow that this chill was coming from.
He immediately looked back up at Lin Fan and said, "You, what did you…"
He never got a chance to finish his sentence since as soon as he looked up, he saw that there was a fist flying out at his face.
The leader of the guards tried to dodge out of the way, but he found that he was moving much slower compared to before. It was almost as if his body wasn't listening to him.
He wasn't able to move out of the way in time and the fist landed right in his face.
The punch picked him up off the ground and he started flying towards the wall of the room. Once he hit the wall, there was a large sound as a crater was made in the wall around him.
As for the leader of the guards, his eyes were rolled back in their sockets as he had lost consciousness.
When the men in the room saw this, all they could do was stare at the leader of the guards in disbelief.
None of them believed that the leader of the guards would be defeated just like this. After all, the leader of the guards was the strongest among them, being in the Third Qi Gathering Level.
For Lin Fan to defeat him this easily, it meant that Lin Fan's cultivation level must be higher than the leader of the guards…
If that was the case, it meant that he was in the Fourth Qi Gathering Level.
This was a very big difference since once he reached the Fourth Qi Gathering Level, he would no longer be in the Low Qi Gathering Level, but rather the Mid Qi Gathering Level.
This was a gap that was like heaven and earth.
Once someone reached the Mid Qi Gathering Level, the spiritual qi that they condensed was at a completely different level.
It was the difference between a drop of a lemon juice and a drop of lemon extract, the concentration of the spiritual energy wasn't at the same level.
Not to mention that if they had a cultivation technique that was elemental based, they would have traces of elemental energy in their spiritual energy which added effects to their abilities.
These were things that normal cultivators couldn't compare to.
Every single person here was someone who cared about their own lives, which was the reason why they followed this lord in the first place.
Now that there was someone with a bigger boot, they wouldn't be foolish enough to challenge him.
After seeing the leader of his guards being smashed into the wall, the lord couldn't help feeling worried. Even if he was an idiot, he still knew that he was in danger if he didn't do anything.
After all, even his most powerful guard had already been defeated, so if he continued acting the same way as before, it was certain that he wouldn't be able to last. Since that was the case, perhaps it was time to try pulling instead of pushing.
The lord acted calm as he stroked his chin and said in a voice that made him seem important, "It seems like you're quite strong. I can spare you if you decide to serve me as my bodyguard. I can even give you that woman if you desire."
Lin Fan shook his head when he heard this.
All of this was just too cliche for him that he didn't know how to feel about this.
When he looked closely, he found that there were the people who had harassed Yue Lan on the street before among the men who were gathered in the room.
Now it all made sense.
It seemed like they were the ones that had brought this lord to Yue Lan and most likely, they were planning on using this lord to take care of him.
It was just that they never expected him to be this strong.
In fact, if it was a few days ago, he might not have been strong enough to deal with the leader of the guards this easily, but he was a completely different person from a few days ago.
Part of that was because of the Daoist Seed that was inside of Xiao Yue.
By "dual cultivating" during the nights, both Lin Fan and Xiao Yue had made great progress on their cultivation, which was the main use of the Daoist Seed.
The other part was because of the cultivation technique that he had.
This wasn't a basic cultivation technique, but rather a special cultivation technique suited just for his restored physique that was given to him by the system. So the speed at which he could cultivate with this cultivation technique was far greater than a normal cultivation technique.
Lin Fan looked at the lord with a look that had difficult emotions.
When the lord saw this, he thought that his plan had worked, so he continued by saying, "I'm a very important person and as long as you obey me, I can give you whatever you want…"
Before he could finish though, Lin Fan had already appeared in front of him and punched him in the face.
Lin Fan had read enough web novels to know how this was going to turn out, so he knew what he had to do.
After being punched in the face, the lord flew out and skidded on the ground a few times before landing. When he landed on the ground, his eyes were rolled back to show that he had already lost consciousness.
All the other men in the room just looked at Lin Fan like he was a madman.
They all knew that the lord wasn't kidding about how important he was. While he was just a young master, he was the young master of one of the four great families of this city.
If there was something that he wanted to do in this city, there was no one that could stop him unless they were from the other four great families.
Just by looking at Lin Fan, they had no doubt that he wasn't someone from the four great families. So where had he found the courage to attack the lord like this?
But of course, they didn't get a chance to think any further as Xiao Yue had already rushed into the room and started attacking them.
None of these people had a cultivation level greater than the First Qi Gathering Realm, so they were no match for Xiao Yue who had already broken through to the Second Qi Gathering Realm.
They fell like ears of wheat before the blade of the scythe under Xiao Yue's blade, but she used the flat of the blade to knock them out instead of killing them with the sharp edge of the blade.
After they had all been knocked out, Lin Fan turned to the older woman who was still laying there after being stomped on by the lord.
When the older woman saw him coming over, she couldn't help flinching as she remembered what had just happened.
She tried crawling back, but she couldn't do it with the wounds all over her body.
She just watched in terror as Lin Fan squatted down in front of her.
