Chapter 40
Lin Fan tried to catch his breath. He was running out of breath from the “intense workout” previously.
He looked around, but the gangster was nowhere to be seen. “Where did that dog go? How can he escape from my attacks? Now, now, there’s no need to hide back in your little hole. You’re good, so I do not mind conceding defeat!”
The crowd watched Lin Fan murmur to himself as he walked around the area searching for the gangster.
He’s on your mace! Are you blind?
Drip!
Lin Fan felt a drip of water on his face. Lin Fan wiped it off only to realize that it was blood. He looked up abruptly to a ridiculous scene.
“What the hell, why are you there?”
He stared at the gangster dumbfoundedly. Why is he pinned onto the mace?
Especially his weapon; it was so heavy and huge, thus it must’ve been quite fatal.
Wang Shufeng looked at the gangster’s corpse lying on the side.
Gulp!
Wang Shufeng gulped seeing the corpse.
Looking at Wang Shufeng’s glance, Lin Fan hummed happily. That’s something a powerful guy like me should enjoy!
He then strolled to Huang Fugui.
Huang Fugui still had not recovered from the shock. He couldn’t believe that Lin Fan was so strong, and he was happy that he did not beat Lin Fan up the other time they had a conflict back at the sect or he might not even still be breathing now.
Thinking about that, Huang Fugui patted himself on the shoulder. Oh my, I’m so lucky.
“Senior Brother Huang, are you alright?” Lin Fan smiled warmly at him. I’ll have to treat him better since all the scrap iron’s with him.
“I’m fine, Junior Brother. You’re so dope.” Huang Fugui gave him a thumbs up.
“Hehe, it’s nothing much.” Lin Fan smiled and went back to Lu Qiming.
All of a sudden, they heard a rustle.
Lu Qiming panicked and shouted after seeing the item, “Be careful!”
A light flashed through the air, taking the shape of a sword.
It was not aiming at Lin Fan, but Huang Fugui.
Realizing the attack was coming at him, Huang Fugui became as pale as a sheet of paper. To him, the attack was too fast for him to react.
Oh no.
Today’s going to be my death day.
“Younger sister, I won’t be able to see you get married.” Huang Fugui shut his eyes in despair.
Zhang Long and the rest were panicking too. They never expected someone to ambush them or to choose Huang Fugui, the seriously injured one, as their target.
Huang Fugui was already waiting for his death.
Thump!
All of a sudden, Huang Fugui felt someone holding his shoulder. When he re-opened his eyes, Lin Fan was standing right in front of him.
And the pearly white sword was covered with blood now that it was piercing through Lin Fan.
“Senior Brother Huang, are you alright?” Lin Fan furrowed his eyebrows as if he was in deep pain.
The culprit took the chance to retrieve the sword and left within no time.
Hearing Lin Fan, Huang Fugui’s heart sank. Never would he have dreamt that his Junior Brother Lin would take an attack for him. Not only so, Lin Fan even ask him if he was alright! Am I dreaming?
“Junior Brother Lin, why…?” Huang Fugui looked at him in disbelief.
Lin Fan was as pale as a sheet of paper. “Senior Brother, you still have your family waiting for you, and your younger sister is waiting for you to attend her wedding! I have no family, I am no one’s concern.”
Tears rolled down Huang Fugui’s cheek. “Junior Brother Lin, I…” He sobbed in regret and anger.
Huang Fugui was crying.
He regretted that he treated Lin Fan badly before. Huang Fugui blamed himself for being a stingy man.
Lu Qiming and the rest were shouting at the culprit in anger too.
Lin Fan watched the masked man run off at the speed of lighting. He picked up his mace without hesitation. “Senior Brother, be at ease. With Lin Fan around. I guarantee you will be safe!”
Boohoo!
Huang Fugui watched Lin Fan stand right in front of him, blocking them from the masked man. This made Huang Fugui feel even worse, and clear watery snot sneaked out from his flaring nostrils and his eyes swelled.
Oh no. Lin Fan thought. He might be stronger than the gangster, and I am injured. I need to recalculate my plans.
But it’s fine. It’s worth it.
Furthermore, he has been staring at me, so he should be coming for me.
Lin Fan carried the mace on his shoulders and yelled. “Come after me if you dare!” Lin Fan then ran deeper into the swamp while screaming at his senior brothers. “Senior Brothers, do not take revenge for me….”
The masked man followed behind Lin Fan at lightning speed.
“Junior Brother Lin…!” The group gasped, but there was nothing they could do.
Huang Fugui watched the skinny figure that was getting smaller. Seeing the blood that flowed out as he went, Huang Fugui dropped to the ground, crying hysterically.
He never dreamt that somebody would take an attack for him.
Especially for such a reason.
I have misunderstood Junior Brother Lin!
