Chapter 551: One Man Against a Family

Xiao Fan looked up at Patriarch Yun Lei, who was charging at him in mid-air. With power surging through his body, he struck back with a single palm!

He had come to collect a debt, yet this old thing had started fighting the moment he appeared.

Did he really think he was easy to bully?

Patriarch Yun Lei was full of Killing Intent. After he returned, Yun Bao had only given him a brief account of what happened, not mentioning that he had been defeated by Xiao Fan in a single move.

Instead, he claimed it had been a bitter fight that he eventually lost.

There was no other way… it was for the sake of Face.

In Patriarch Yun Lei's eyes, Xiao Fan was merely an ignorant brat who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth!

Patriarch Yun Lei's fist collided with Xiao Fan's palm!

"Boom"…

"Puff"…

Patriarch Yun Lei was instantly dumbfounded; the power of the young man's palm strike was terrifying.

His cultivation was at the third level of the Yuanhun Realm, yet the boy opposite him had just unleashed a strike with power at least at the fifth level of the Yuanhun Realm, if not higher.

Moreover, one had to realize that Xiao Fan had struck casually just now and hadn't even used his full strength.

Patriarch Yun Lei retreated hundreds of zhang, hovering in the air with a livid expression, blood spilling from his mouth…

He had been careless!

He had suffered a huge loss in their very first exchange.

Xiao Fan didn't say anything, merely watching Patriarch Yun Lei in mid-air coldly.

"Should I beat this old thing up too and extort a million from him as well? No, this old thing is the Family head, so at least two million," Xiao Fan thought to himself.

Meanwhile, more and more people from major families were gathering to watch the battle.

The Yun Family was a major Family in Linze City, absolutely top-tier.

Yet yesterday, Yun Bao, the number one of the Yun Family's younger generation, had been beaten like a dead dog!

Today, this young man had come to collect the debt and had immediately struck back the Yun Family head with a single palm.

"Brat, you come to my Yun Family to run wild; you are simply courting death!" Patriarch Yun Lei roared, refusing to lose his composure even if he had lost the exchange.

This was the entrance to his Yun Family; if he were suppressed by a young punk in his early twenties, his Yun Family would never be able to show their Faces again.

"I'm running wild?" Xiao Fan looked coldly at Patriarch Yun Lei in mid-air and said coldly, "What is wrong with me coming to collect a debt?"

Having said that, Xiao Fan took out the IOU that Yun Bao had written with his own hand from his Storage Pouch.

"Look, this was written by your Yun Family's Yun Bao himself. Does your Yun Family intend to go back on its word?"

"I came to collect the debt, and your Yun Family attacked me the moment I arrived. Do you really think I have a good temper and can be kneaded by your Yun Family at will!"

"You!" Patriarch Yun Lei was enraged again, his Qi roiling, and he nearly made another move.

But it was obvious that he was no match for Xiao Fan; attacking again would just be asking for trouble.

"It was clearly you who threatened my son and forced him to write it; this cannot count!" Patriarch Yun Lei calmed down, realizing he had to find another way to deal with the young man before him.

"Forced?" Xiao Fan sneered. "Fine then, call Yun Bao out and let's see what he has to say. Is your Yun Family openly trying to welch on the debt?"

"Why would my son write an IOU for one million to you? Don't you have any idea why?" Patriarch Yun Lei said angrily, his Face flushed red.

"Heh… why?" Xiao Fan said, "Because I spared his life."

"If your Yun Family hands over the one million promptly, that is the money for Yun Bao's life. If you don't, as for the consequences… your Yun Family will have to bear them yourself!"

Xiao Fan's voice was calm, but he was feeling angry inside as well.

Before he came out, he had thought that this debt collection certainly wouldn't go smoothly, and that he might even have to fight.

And it turned out they really did start fighting.

"What a ruthless person… he's too fierce!"

"Is this Xiao Fan? The one from the City Lord's Mansion yesterday…"

"I didn't get to see him beat up Yun Bao at the City Lord's Mansion yesterday, but seeing this Xiao Fan come to the Yun Family to collect the debt today is not bad either. It's been worth it…"

"…"

The onlookers spoke up one after another, fearing that the excitement wouldn't be big enough.

Xiao Fan stood alone, very imposing, brimming with Killing Intent at the entrance of the Yun Family, determined not to stop until he received the money.

The people inside the Yun Family also came out from the courtyards; hundreds of Yun Family disciples, clan elders, and Family retainers glared at Xiao Fan.

It felt like if Xiao Fan were to strike again, they would all swarm him…

"You, you actually came!" At this moment, Yun Bao walked out, his Face pale, glaring at Xiao Fan.

It was the brat before him who had defeated him yesterday, causing him to lose all Face, humiliating him in public, and forcing him to write an IOU for one million Spirit Stones.

"Your creditor has come to collect money; isn't that to be expected?" Xiao Fan glared at him, his tone calm, yet Yun Bao was instinctively frightened into taking a few steps back, nearly falling to the ground.

Yun Bao already had a shadow in his heart, and that shadow was Xiao Fan.

In Yun Bao's eyes, the opponent was a devil.

"You, you arrogant brat, die!" Patriarch Yun Lei roared angrily, "Everyone of the Yun Family, charge! Kill this arrogant brat!"

Patriarch Yun Lei knew that in a one-on-one fight, he was definitely no match for Xiao Fan, so he wanted to gather the strength of the entire Yun Family to take him down together!

The Yun Family had many experts, with many at the first and second levels of the Yuanhun Realm.

These would be the main force in the fight.

And there were even more experts at the Xuandan Realm—over a hundred of them!

Yet Xiao Fan himself was only at the Great Perfection of the Xuandan Realm, and although he could challenge across levels.

The difference in Realm was there, after all, giving them the illusion that as long as they all swarmed him together, the opponent would definitely be no match for them.
