“Young Master, among all the fires in the world, there are roughly four categories.
First, there is the Fan Fire generated by ordinary people using flint; second, there is the Beast Fire self-conceived by some fire-attribute Yao Beasts; third, there is the Heaven Fire nurtured by Heaven And Earth; as for the last category, it is known as Divine Fire.
Now, you should know your Cultivation direction, right?”
Just as Lin Fan was troubled by how to find a flame to melt, the enchanting voice of the Demoness resounded in his mind again.
Listening to her words, a strange glint immediately appeared in Lin Fan’s eyes; flames, there were actually so many classifications.
Wait, the flame generated by flint is called Fan Fire.
Wouldn’t that be…
Thinking of this, Lin Fan quickly got up, a hint of excitement on his face, and walked outside.
The Lin Family was one of the Four Great Families of Tianfeng Imperial Capital after all, so the lighting tools in the house naturally couldn't be oil lamps and candles like those in ordinary people's homes, but rather lamps made of luminous pearls.
Things like flint, for the Lin Family, only existed in the kitchen.
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, a Lin Family disciple coming towards him seemed not to see Lin Fan and bumped squarely into the young man.
“Ah, Young… Young Lord, I apologize.”
“It’s fine, why are you so flustered?”
Lin Fan smiled and shook his head, looking at the panic-stricken expression of the person in front of him, and asked.
“Young… Young Lord, you just returned, so don’t be Divided Soul over such matters.”
“Speak!”
Seeing the other party deliberately concealing it, Lin Fan’s expression sank, and he said with an unquestionable tone.
“I… sigh, it’s that Lo Family again.
Hmph, relying on Luo Qingyi being conferred the title of Princess Qingyi, that Lo Family Third Young Master actually sent people to the Spiritual Medicine Shop to cause trouble, saying that the Spirit Medicine we sold him was fake.
Our Lin Family's Spiritual Medicine Shop has stood for many years, relying on genuine goods.
His outrageous behavior has caused many losses to the Spiritual Medicine Shop, and even many Young Masters and Young Misses from long-term cooperating families have come to us to demand an explanation.
Because it was the younger generation causing trouble, the Elders in the clan found it inconvenient to step forward, and Young Miss Lin Lin has already gone there.
That guy had a foul mouth, which caused Young Miss Lin Lin to act, and she was ultimately injured by that guy; I rushed back to call for reinforcements.
Unfortunately, for the Tianfeng Grand Competition, many Geniuses in the clan have gone out for training.
Among the younger generation remaining in the clan, not even one has reached the True Spirit Realm.”
“Luo Qingyi was conferred the title of Princess?”
Lin Fan was slightly startled, raising his eyebrows in surprise, then his face turned cold, and he waved his hand, saying, “Let’s go, take me there.”
“Young Lord, that Lo Family Third Young Master has now reached the Peak of True Spirit, just one step away from entering the Earth Core Realm, you…”
He had heard that Lin Fan’s Cultivation was completely lost, his Divine Core Peak Cultivation was gone; for Lin Fan to deal with the Lo Family Third Young Master with his current strength, what else could it be but asking for a beating?
Lin Fan, he was the Lin Family Young Master, representing the Lin Family’s face.
If Lin Fan were also severely beaten, it would be no different from a heavy slap to the Lin Family’s face.
“I said, take me!”
“This, alright…”
Lin Fan rarely showed such a stern expression, and that person dared not disobey, only nodding and leading the former towards the Spiritual Medicine Shop.
…
“I said, if you don’t give me an explanation today, this matter will not be over.”
In the Lin Family's Spiritual Medicine Shop, a young man in a brocade robe swept his sharp gaze over the Lin Family members and shouted loudly.
Beside him stood several handsome young men and beautiful young women, of similar age to him, dressed luxuriously, all children of influential families in the Imperial Capital.
“What kind of explanation do you want?”
Just as the Lin Family members were filled with indignation, a cold voice sounded from outside the house.
Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a black-robed young man walk in.
His face was like a cold cicada, and his gaze coldly looked at the brocade-robed young man.
Their eyes met, and the brocade-robed young man felt a burning sensation in his eyes, forcing him to avert his gaze from the black-robed young man.
“Lin Fan, you guy, have you finally decided to show up?
I thought you were going to be a coward forever.”
Lo Family Third Young Master, Luo Qingkong, his Martial Artist talent was less than one-tenth of his younger sister Luo Qingyi’s, and he was notoriously idle and a dissolute scion.
Now at twenty years old, his Cultivation had only reached the Peak of True Spirit, and even this Cultivation was forcibly elevated by many Heaven And Earth Treasures from the Lo Family.
In the past, when Lin Fan was with Luo Qingyi, he disliked this person greatly, and several conflicts occurred.
In the end, they all concluded with Luo Qingyi apologizing for her Elder brother.
With Lin Fan’s former strength, dealing with Luo Qingkong was like child’s play.
But now.
Enemies meeting, eyes turning red with hatred.
Especially after Luo Qingkong learned the news that Lin Fan’s Cultivation was completely lost, he immediately had the idea of revenge.
Sure enough, his younger sister had just been conferred the title of Princess in the morning, and he immediately took action against the Lin Family.
His purpose in doing this was to force Lin Fan out.
He wanted to make this True Dragon of the Lin Family lose face in front of him.
Young Lord!
Lin Fan’s appearance immediately caused all the Lin Family members to tremble, especially the young girl being supported by someone, who lowered her head in shame.
Ignoring Luo Qingkong’s humiliation, Lin Fan walked directly to the girl, looked at the injury on her shoulder; blood had already stained the clothes on her shoulder.
The injury was not severe, but not light either.
At least, it would take half a month of rest to fully recover.
“Brother Lin Fan, I…”
Lin Lin, the granddaughter of the Lin Family’s Third Elder, two years younger than Lin Fan, was one of Lin Fan’s admirers.
Her talent was decent; at fifteen, she had already reached the True Spirit Realm.
Unfortunately, to reach the True Spirit Peak, there was still some distance.
It was precisely because of this that she lost to Luo Qingkong.
After all.
Luo Qingkong was at the True Spirit Peak, almost at the point of condensing an Earth Core.
“No need to blame yourself.
When you reach his age, dealing with him will only take one move.”
Lin Fan stroked Lin Lin’s head and comforted her softly.
After speaking, he slowly turned around, his gaze falling back onto Luo Qingkong.
As for the other several children of influential families, they were completely ignored by him.
He was somewhat familiar with these people; they were all dissolute scions who constantly followed Luo Qingkong around, so he naturally didn't want to bother with them.
“You said, my Lin Family sells fake medicine?”
Lin Fan’s calm question immediately caused the several children of influential families around Luo Qingkong to tremble slightly.
Even though they knew the other party was now a cripple, his former prestige still awed them.
“A bunch of good-for-nothings, he has no Cultivation, what are you still afraid of?”
Luo Qingkong glared fiercely at them, lightly scolding, then looked at Lin Fan again, and said sharply, “What?
Don’t want to admit it?
I’m telling you, even if we take this to Your Majesty, we are in the right.
But, considering our past relationship, you only need to kneel and admit your mistake to me.
I can then let bygones be bygones.
You all agree, right?”
Kowtow and admit mistake.
Their eyes lit up.
What were they? They were a group of dissolute scions, normally afraid of Lin Fan like mice seeing a cat, never daring to show off in front of him.
If they could make Lin Fan kneel before them and kowtow to admit his mistake, wouldn't their vanity explode?
“Good, good, good, Lin Fan, as long as you kneel and admit your mistake, we can forgive the Lin Family’s mistake this time.
And, we will continue to place long-term orders at the Lin Family's Spiritual Medicine Shop.”
Listening to their remarks, the Lin Family disciples behind the young man all showed angry expressions, especially the injured Lin Lin, who even wanted to activate the spiritual Qi in her Dantian, showing a tendency to perish together with them.
“Someone, compensate them with ten times the Spirit Medicine.”
Lin Fan looked at them indifferently, waved his hand, and instructed.
“Yes!”
No one doubted Lin Fan’s actions, even though doing so would certainly make outsiders truly believe that the Lin Family sold fake medicine, and would tarnish the Spiritual Medicine Shop’s reputation.
But.
Lin Fan’s command, for the younger generation of the Lin Family, was an imperial decree.
They were even willing to go through fire and water for it.
Because they knew very well that Lin Fan would never do anything to harm the Lin Family.
“Heh heh, it seems the Lin Family admits to selling fake medicine.”
Receiving Spirit Medicine worth ten times the original, Luo Qingkong secretly felt suspicious but sneered and mocked.
“No, you misunderstood.
This ten times the Spirit Medicine is to pay for your medical expenses.”
As soon as the words fell.
Lin Fan’s figure suddenly swayed, his body darting out like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Luo Qingkong.
How could this be?
Luo Qingkong didn’t even have time to react before he felt a pain in his abdomen.
His body immediately flew backward uncontrollably.
During this, he also saw several other people beside him flying out in the same posture.
Bang, bang, bang…
Crashing sounds echoed throughout the Spiritual Medicine Shop.
Everyone, almost all of them, was stunned at this moment.
Even the Lo Family members who accompanied Luo Qingkong didn’t have time to react before they saw their Young Master lying across the corner of the medicine shop.
“Coming to my Lin Family to cause trouble, injuring my Lin clan members, Luo Qingkong, who gave you the courage?
Spirit Medicine sold, no responsibility taken; this is my Lin Family’s rule.
Moreover, before the sale, the seller and buyer had already confirmed the authenticity.
You take the Spirit Medicine that has already been sold and say my Lin Family sells fake medicine?
What is your intention in slandering my Lin Family like this?”
Lin Fan stood proudly in the spot where Luo Qingkong and the others had been.
His gaze was icy as he looked at Luo Qingkong.
This punch didn’t take the opponent’s life.
However, compared to Lin Lin’s injury, Luo Qingkong’s was clearly more severe.
If he didn’t have high-grade healing Spirit Medicine, it would at least keep him bedridden for more than half a year.
In that case, he would miss the Tianfeng Grand Competition.
“You…”
Luo Qingkong looked at Lin Fan with extreme resentment.
The injury to his abdomen made the spiritual Qi star core condensed in his Dantian feel as if it was about to shatter, the pain unbearable.
One must know.
A True Spirit Realm Martial Artist condenses a spiritual Qi star core in their Dantian.
After three condensations, it will solidify and eventually transform into a Divine Pill.
He had already condensed it three times; he only needed to form the Pill to step into the first level of the Divine Core Realm, the Earth Core Realm.
And now.
The spiritual Qi star core showed signs of cracking, meaning his hope of forming the Pill was gone.
This punch directly shattered his wish to enter the Earth Core Realm before the Tianfeng Grand Competition.
Such an action was no different from crippling him.
“Injuring my Lo Family Young Master, Lin Fan, how dare you!”
