Pan Xiuwen stared at Chu Yunfan as he uttered shocking words.
These words flashed through Chu Yunfan’s mind like a bolt of lightning. He immediately understood.
He instantly thought of many things. Although Chu Yuntian was not like Dong Fanghao who single-handedly could suppress thousands of high schoolers within Donghua City and crushed all their glory, he was still one of the top students in Donghua No. 1 High. He had even gotten the professors of Federation University to think highly of him and wanted to recruit him into the university.
However, there was not only one such person in Donghua City. Jiang Lei was probably Chu Yuntian’s competitor. Moreover, the two sides were probably on bad terms. Otherwise, Jiang lei would not have reached out to Chu Yuntian’s cousin who was not on good terms with him.
“Do you think it’s odd? Actually, there’s nothing odd about it. We’ve done our research. Your family is just a small family. Your grandfather deprived you of cultivation resources to nurture Chu Yuntian since he was young. It can be said that Chu Yuntian’s current glory was built on depriving you of what you should have had. That’s why he stands where he is today.” Pan Xiuwen gazed intensely at Chu Yuntian, trying to coax them. “Don’t you hate it? If it weren’t for Chu Yuntian, you would’ve obtained much more than what you have today.”
“What do you want me to do?” Chu Yunfan asked.
Hearing this, Pan Xiuwen felt that Chu Yunfan was finally coming around. After all, if it were him with such an oppressive cousin, he would probably feel resentful.
Pan Xiuwen’s coercion was based on this logic.
“It’s very simple. We want you to poison Chu Yuntian when you come into contact with him. We managed to obtain a colorless and tasteless poison. No one will know that it was you who did it. Don’t worry, we won’t kill anyone. After all, killing someone is a very troublesome matter. We only want to make it so that he loses the right to participate in Federation University’s independent assessment,” Pan Xiuwen said lightly.
This did not seem like much, but the martial arts class was different from the liberal arts class. To be fair to future students, there was only one chance for everyone to sit for the college entrance exams. There was no possibility of a second chance. After all, the advantage of cultivating for one extra year would be too great.
If Chu Yuntian lost this chance, his life would be ruined. Even if he could be specially admitted into one of the other top ten universities, the gap between that and Federation University was clear for everyone to see.
“It’s a very simple task. If you do it, not only will you be getting revenge for all the years, but you’ll also be getting the Jiangs to revoke the bounty on your family. What do you think?” Pan Xiuwen felt that victory was in his grasp.
“Do you think that you successfully persuaded me? I’m sorry. I refuse!” Chu Yunfan bellowed after taking a deep breath.
“What?” Pan Xiuwen was stunned. He had thought of ten thousand outcomes, but he had never thought of this one. Chu Yunfan refused, and he refused without any hesitation.
He did not hesitate in the slightest.
“Why?” Pan Xiuwen asked in disbelief. “As far as I know, you guys aren’t on good terms.”
Chu Yunfan sneered and said, “It seems that you guys have put some effort into investigating this. But who do you think I am? Would I collude with you guys just because of this?
“Yes, I don’t really get along with Chu Yuntian and want to take him down, but not in this way,” Chu Yunfan said indifferently.
Chu Yunfan did not want to take down Chu Yuntian. Even he could not believe it. His cousin had been a psychological trauma to him for the past ten years. His grandparents also favored this eldest grandson, and a lot of resources that should have belonged to Chu Yunfan had been taken away and given to Chu Yuntian. How could he not have resentment in his heart? He dreamed of defeating Chu Yuntian all the time to prove that he was not inferior, but definitely not in this way.
Because this was no different from saying that he was indeed inferior to Chu Yuntian and that he would never be able to catch up to his cousin in this lifetime.
Pan Xiuwen had never thought that Chu Yunfan would actually disagree. Moreover, he could see a hint of mockery in Chu Yunfan’s eyes. It was that same disgusting look that’s always on Chu Yuntian’s face. Regardless of whether it was Chu Yunfan or Chu Yuntian, they were all equally hateful.
“You refuse me even when I’ve made you such a generous offer. If you refuse a toast, you’ll have to drink the forfeit!”
Pan Xiuwen’s expression instantly turned cold. A ferocious expression appeared on his face as he said. “Do you think that you still have the leeway to go back on your words after knowing this matter?”
As he spoke, he took a step forward and stopped Chu Yunfan who was trying to leave.
“Why? You want to try to stop me?” Chu Yunfan said as he frowned.
“Since you are unwilling to attack Chu Yuntian, then I can only make you pay the price,” Pan Xiuwen said coldly.
As Pan Xiuwen said this, he attacked. As fast, accurate, and ruthless as lightning, he reached toward Chu Yunfan’s neck.
As soon as he attacked, Chu Yunfan judged Pan Xiuwen’s strength—the fourth level of the Energy Refinement Stage.
With such strength, Pan Xiuwen was indeed qualified to be arrogant. After all, he was the only one in Calm Ocean City who had reached the fourth level of the Energy Refinement Stage. The other strong ones were only at the peak of the third level. If the dead Jiang Yusheng was not counted, Pan Xiuwen alone was enough to defeat all the high schoolers of Calm Ocean City. As the number one high school in the whole of Donghua City, Donghua No. 1 High’s students were indeed terrifying.
Such strength was enough to compete for the title of number one high schooler in Calm Ocean City. Now that Pan Xiuwen was working for Jiang Lei, it could be imagined how much stronger Jiang lei was.
If Pan Xiuwen were to fight against any other students of Calm Ocean City, he would probably be victorious. However, he was up against Chu Yunfan.
Pan Xiuwen’s attack was as sharp as an eagle’s. However, when he smiled and thought that he was about to grab ahold of Chu Yunfan’s neck, he found his hand passing through Chu Yunfan’s neck.
It was a movement technique!
Nine Cyclone Phantoms!
Chu Yunfan made his move. In an instant, he swept out like a bolt of lightning. His fist was like a heavy hammer, landing a fierce punch on Pan Xiuwen’s chest.
Bam!
Pan Xiuwen could not dodge. His attack had been fast, but Chu Yunfan was even faster than him. In an instant, a terrifying force swept through Pan Xiuwen’s body.
Boom!
Pan Xiuwen crashed into the ground. He felt his stomach turn upside down. He could barely breathe, feeling as if he had been hit directly in the chest by a heavy blow.
Although he was protected by his armor, his internal organs were still affected.
He could not even stand up.
“Trash!”
Chu Yunfan sneered, turned around, and left without so much as a backward glance.
