Super War God in the City

"Bang... Bang... Bang...."

The Qiu family had many injured descendants who had just managed to get up, only to fall to the ground one after another, their faces ashen, unable to accept the reality before them.

Even the old ancestor was gone; the Qiu family's sky had completely collapsed. Qiu Yuansheng nearly bit his tongue in half, sitting on the ground, dazed, staring at the body of Qiu Haoqiong in front of him as if he had lost his soul.

Ling Fan's eyes moved slightly as he stooped down and began to search Qiu Haoqiong's body. Moments later, he pulled out a small beast skin bag and, upon shaking it open, inside was a Thousand-Year Fire Ganoderma and Thousand Pine Nuts, both rare precious medicines.

"Hmm, not bad for someone of your age, at least you knew to save something for later, though it's a pity it's a bit scant!" Ling Fan muttered to himself as he put the items away.

The onlookers exchanged glances—killing a person and then searching the body!

After Ling Fan finished up and was certain nothing was missed, he glanced at Qiu Yuansheng, "Do you have anything to say? Or just end yourself! I don't think the Qiu family needs to exist anymore. I don't like leaving troubles unresolved!"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yuansheng's body shook violently; he immediately began to knock his head on the ground repeatedly, like pounding garlic, until his forehead was bleeding.

"I beg for your magnanimity, spare my Qiu family, I swear from now on I will not dare to harbor any dissent, I am willing to be Young Master Ling's dog!" Qiu Yuansheng's forehead was covered in blood, yet he did not dare to stop for an instant, even smashing the floor tiles beneath his head.

Ling Fan pondered for a moment, scanned the courtyard full of injured Qiu family descendants, and said indifferently, "It doesn't require my hands to annihilate your entire house, just one word from me is sufficient. I've given you the chance, now get lost!"

Qiu Yuansheng, as if he didn't hear at all, kept kowtowing until suddenly he froze, "You... you're letting me go?"

"What, want to stay? Clean up the courtyard, and also, if you have any heavenly and earthly treasures at home, pack them up and bring them to me tonight. Consider the consequences if you hide anything!" Ling Fan said lightly.

"Dare not, dare not, Young Master Ling, rest assured!" Qiu Yuansheng, as if he had received amnesty, seemed to have all strength leave his body.

Within moments, he disappeared from the courtyard with the injured and the bodies of the old ancestors—they dared not stay in the presence of King Yan any longer.

Instantly, the courtyard emptied, leaving only the Lu family trio, unsure whether to stay or leave.

Ling Fan looked on calmly and glanced at Lu Hanshan, "You were the loudest just now, let me hear it again!"

Lu Hanshan immediately wilted, then suddenly turned to He Jiayi, "Cousin, please ask Young Master Ling to show mercy, spare me, I know I was wrong!"

Lu Feichen was parched and pale as he looked towards He Qingyang, and He Huiyun's voice trembled, "Brother...."

He Jiayi turned away, ignoring Lu Hanshan's plea. She hadn't seen this kind of repentance when Lu Hanshan was sinking her into trouble; Ling Fan's decisions were not something she would interfere with, almost as if she were following her husband's lead.

"Get lost, and if you appear before me again, you won't need to leave!" Ling Fan snorted coldly.

Lu Feichen took a deep breath without a word, grabbed Lu Hanshan and her daughter, and disappeared from the courtyard.

He Qingyang's throat bobbed, still in shock, realizing the true dragon his daughter had brought home!

"That... Young Master Ling, letting the Qiu family off like this..."

"No matter, be at ease, from today onwards, the Qiu family will fear me like a deity, they wouldn't dare anymore!" Ling Fan waved off the concern.

"Just call me Ling Fan, you are Jiayi's parents, no need for such formality!"

He had intended to deal with the Qiu family and leave, but since he had agreed to pretend to be the boyfriend, he might as well follow through with it; a trip to Zhongnan was not urgent.

"Then, I'll call you Xiao Fan!" Chen Xue finally snapped out of her daze, promptly responding with enthusiasm.

Glancing at the mess in the courtyard and the living room with a huge hole in it, it seemed this place was temporarily uninhabitable.

"I'll cook myself today; let's change locations!" Chen Xue suggested.

Being a wealthy family, the He family naturally had more than one residence. With He Qingyang's arrangement, they quickly moved to a new villa complex.

Though not as luxurious as the previous one, it was still quite elegant.

By the time Chen Xue finished preparing the meal, it was already dusk.

During the meal, He Qingyang looked ashamed but did not bring up the events of the day, instead changing the subject, "Xiao Fan, how did you meet my daughter?"

Chen Xue added a piece of meat to Ling Fan's bowl, also showing curiosity.

He Jiayi, still holding some resentment towards her parents, retorted with a pout, "We met at school, my Eyes of Golden Flame are way better than yours. I don't mean to criticize, but what a mess the Qiu family is, to push your daughter into a pit of fire!"

He Qingyang felt embarrassed and didn't have much to say; it was the choice of the Qiu family that he couldn't refuse unless he wanted to die.

But discussing it was pointless now, and after briefly chatting, the atmosphere was mostly kept alive by Chen Xue, as He Jiayi still harbored some resentment towards her father.

If it weren't for Ling Fan today, the rest of her life would have been a living nightmare. Find your next adventure on empire

And after the shocking events of the day, He Qingyang and his wife were still somewhat restrained around Ling Fan.

Ling Fan inwardly smiled wryly, cleaned his plate, put down his chopsticks, and was about to go to his room to rest when there was a knock at the door.

Chen Xue opened the door, and to her surprise, it was Qiu Yuansheng bringing people carrying two large wooden boxes, shakily making his way in front of Ling Fan.

Although the He family had moved, it wasn't difficult to find them in a place as small as Ice City.

"Young Master Ling, these are all the medicinal herbs my Qiu family has collected over the years, all here, with absolutely no portion hidden!" Qiu Yuansheng said nervously.

Ling Fan stood up to look, secretly astonished in his heart, "The Qiu family's foundation is quite substantial, to have so much?"

After sending off the few people, Ling Fan opened the boxes to check and was immediately dumbfounded.

He had asked for herbs aged a hundred years and above, yet they had even brought herbs that were only twenty or thirty years old; he had thought he was about to strike it rich!

But on second thought, he could understand; Qiu Yuansheng had been scared out of his wits and really hadn't dared to hold anything back, probably emptying out the family's reserves, now, the Qiu family would probably struggle to produce even a twenty-year-old herb.

Ling Fan sifted through everything once and found that there wasn't any of the thousand-year-old medicines that Qiu Haoqiong had secretly hoarded, though there were a few hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum roots, and he immediately closed the boxes.

He turned to He Qingyang and said, "Uncle, I'll give you an address later; could you help me send these off tomorrow?"

He couldn't carry so many things with him, so he had to entrust them to Xiao Chubing; he immediately sent a message to his wife, briefly explaining the situation!

He Qingyang dared not delay and promptly agreed.

After everything was settled, Ling Fan greeted the He couple and was then pulled into her bedroom by He Jiayi!

Ling Fan felt a bit awkward, "Um, is it appropriate for me to sleep here? Maybe I should go to another room!"

"What for, you blockhead? They all know you're my boyfriend. If you and I sleep in separate rooms now, wouldn't that give us away?" He Jiayi said, annoyed.

At the same time, she felt secretly bashful, though she kept a nonchalant face.

Ling Fan felt helpless in his heart; it seemed he had to be good to the end, sending Buddha all the way to the west!

"By the way, I'm planning to leave tomorrow morning, and you should head back to school early too!" Ling Fan reminded her.

"So soon?" He Jiayi felt reluctant, hoping to spend a few more days with Ling Fan.

"I still have things to do. The Qiu family's matter is already resolved, and you don't have to worry anymore. From now on, you can boldly fall in love with any guy you fancy!" Ling Fan teased.

With that, he lay down on the bed fully clothed, "I'm going to sleep, you should rest early too!"

Seeing this, He Jiayi became flustered, blushing as she sneaked a glance at him, noticing Ling Fan had already turned on his side, pretending to sleep.

Lying there, Ling Fan heard rustling sounds and couldn't help but think of Xiao Chubing and Yun Fei in Binzhou; now that he was sharing a room with another woman, a sense of guilt inevitably rose in his heart.

At that moment, He Jiayi had already changed into her clothes, and like a slippery little loach, she slid nervously into the bed.

After a short while, He Jiayi's soft and fragile voice reached his ears, "Um... thank you for today. I... I can offer myself to you..."

Ling Fan was startled and took a deep breath; he was no saint, but did she have to be so tempting?

As one of Binzhou University's top ten beauties, He Jiayi naturally had her exceptional qualities, even though she wasn't as mature and elegant as a woman refined by society!

But she did possess a different kind of pure vitality, a vibrant youthful aura, with a growing figure and delicate skin; it was impossible for Ling Fan to be unaffected unless he wasn't a man!

However, with a loving wife at home, how could he entangle himself with this young girl!

Moreover, she was different from Xiao Chubing and Yun Fei; her mind was not yet fully matured, and if she met his other women in the future, they might not be able to get along peacefully!

He didn't want to set fire to his own backyard; the reason he had dared to take responsibility for Yun Fei was that she was a mature-minded woman who could handle some matters by herself.

"Go to sleep; I have a lot of women, and it's not as wonderful as you imagine!" Ling Fan took a deep breath, determined to extinguish the young girl's fantasies.

"I know, how could a man like you only have one woman? I just want to be one of your women!" He Jiayi poked her little head out, her gaze in the darkness was resolute.

Ling Fan was suddenly at a loss for words; this was different from what he had imagined!

"You're still young, and this is just a momentary impulse. In the future, you'll meet a man you like!" Ling Fan sighed inwardly, speaking calmly.

"That's just an excuse. How am I young? I know what I'm doing. You saved my life, and from now on, I'll be yours. Am I not even qualified to be your woman?" He Jiayi's voice carried a hint of grievance and loss.

"You're overthinking it; there will be many men who like you!" Ling Fan consoled her, unsure of the best way to reject her.

"If time can prove my sincerity, I hope you don't reject me. I liked you ever since that day in front of the Fighting Stage!" He Jiayi said softly.

Ling Fan sighed softly in his heart and fell silent, unexpectedly incurring yet another emotional debt, only hoping that time would soothe her restless youthful heart.

The room fell into a silence...
