At this moment, Lin Fan expressed his helplessness. He considered himself a very low-key person. With his current overwhelming strength, he was content to hide in a small herbal medicine shop as its owner within the imperial city.
But now, someone had the audacity to provoke him directly at his doorstep.
This was simply intolerable.
Meanwhile, the imperial court’s guardians were staring at Lin Fan in shock. The sensation they’d just felt was terrifyingly intense, as if they were facing a ferocious ancient beast.
Before them, Lin Fan seemed like a dormant ancient beast awakening, unleashing boundless energy the moment he opened his eyes.
“Eldest Prince, something seems off,” one of the guardians whispered, sensing that this young man was no ordinary individual.
“Hmph, what could possibly be wrong? Just seize him,” the eldest prince coldly replied, unfazed.
Shang Qingcheng’s stunning face was filled with fury.
Her eyes glared fiercely at Lin Fan, as if she could kill him a thousand times over.
She would never forget the humiliation she suffered—this despicable man had trampled her publicly, an act she could never tolerate.
She was the most beautiful woman in the imperial city, the goddess adored by countless men, always treated like a queen wherever she went.
Yet this detestable man had trampled her, causing her to lose face publicly in front of everyone.
No matter what, she would have her revenge.
“Little lady, don’t look at me with such hatred. People might think I abandoned you. I do care about my reputation,” Lin Fan said calmly.
These kids were simply too ignorant.
If he were to unleash his power, they’d be terrified out of their wits.
Yang Wantian shielded his son protectively, watching the situation warily. He was ready to intervene at any moment.
“Silence! I will make you regret this. What are you all waiting for? Attack now!” Shang Qingcheng roared at the guardians.
Though the guardians were apprehensive, they had no choice but to act at this point.
Boom!
The guardians, no weaklings themselves, acted decisively and forcefully.
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes but didn’t move. In an instant, the guardians’ bodies flew backward like cannonballs, crashing onto the street.
Lin Fan held back—he still needed to stay in the imperial city for some time.
The guardians sprawled on the street looked at the man inside the house in terror.
They had no idea what had just happened.
The moment they attacked, it felt as though a powerful force had struck them. Before they could react, they were already lying here.
An expert, a supreme expert.
The guardians weren’t fools—they could tell immediately. They also realized that the man had held back, otherwise they wouldn’t just be lying on the ground.
“This… this…”
The eldest prince had been confident moments ago, but now he was completely stunned.
This was… unbelievable.
These guardians were powerful figures who protected the imperial city, yet now the eldest prince was shocked beyond words.
In an instant, they had been subdued, without even seeing their opponent’s techniques.
Too fast.
Yang Wantian had expected an unavoidable battle, but now he was equally astonished.
He knew the strength of these guardians—they were top experts of the imperial city, unmatched in battle. Yet now they were all defeated.
Staring at Lin Fan in disbelief, Yang Wantian wondered just who his master really was and how his strength could be so overwhelming.
“Now only the two of you remain,” Lin Fan said casually, blinking as if discussing something mundane.
“Eh!”
Shang Qingcheng stared at the scene, stunned. Her well-proportioned body trembled violently—she was genuinely frightened.
Where did this freak come from?
These were the imperial guardians, powerful experts akin to gods, yet before this man, they were like helpless insects with no chance of resistance.
“What do you want to do?” Shang Qingcheng took a step back, her ample chest quivering with the movement.
“Hehe!”
Lin Fan grinned mischievously, as if eyeing something, before shifting his gaze toward the eldest prince.
Feeling that gaze, the eldest prince shuddered inwardly and nervously declared, “I am the eldest prince! If you harm me, you’ll never leave this place alive.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you two. After all, I’m a pacifist,” Lin Fan said with a bright smile.
But to Shang Qingcheng and the eldest prince, this smile looked terrifying. Their hearts froze. In that smile, they sensed a sinister intent.
“Batian, bring me the broom,” Lin Fan said.
Yang Batian blinked in confusion but quickly ran off and returned with a broom twice his height.
Lin Fan gripped the broom, smirking slightly, “Since you’ve come all this way, you should leave with a memorable lesson.”
“What are you going to do?” the two cried out in alarm, unable to comprehend what this terrifying man intended.
“Hmph, what do you think?”
With a calm smile, Lin Fan lifted the broom and struck both of their backsides.
Smack!
A crisp sound echoed through the apothecary, followed immediately by screams.
“I’m the eldest prince! How dare you…”
“Ah! Help!”
The eldest prince jumped around frantically, as if standing on fire.
Shang Qingcheng, watching the scene unfold, was equally stunned. But at that moment, she noticed the man’s gaze turning toward her.
She swallowed hard, fearfully staring at Lin Fan.
“You… wouldn’t dare.”
Smack!
In an instant, two figures leapt wildly down the street. The broom strikes were genuinely painful.
Such a thing was unimaginable to them—they had never even considered it happening to themselves.
Yet reality had slapped them in the face.
“Stop right there! I’m the eldest prince!”
“I’ll never let this go!”
“Ahh!”
Their screams echoed through the heavens, chilling and terrifying.
The nearby commoners, witnessing the scene, were equally stunned.
They had realized that the two being beaten were none other than the eldest prince and Shang Qingcheng, the most beautiful woman in the city.
Yet now, they were being chased and beaten mercilessly by that mysterious man wielding a broom.
The guardians swallowed hard, exchanging glances.
Terrifying!
