In a moment of desperation, Xiaofan, about to fall, used his waist strength to push himself off the ground with one hand, bouncing up two meters high, and leaping away from the encircling attack.

"Oh, I didn't see that coming. This kid does have some skills, no wonder he's bold enough to act crazy with me. But even so, that's all there is to it. Hold him down, the other two, go grab Li Sisi for me."

"Yes."

Here, three people immediately surrounded Xiaofan, leaving him no room to spare. If it were before, these so-called experts would have undoubtedly been defeated by him in seconds, but now, although he remained undefeated, he had no assurance of victory.

Of course, although Xiaofan was anxious, he was not completely disheartened. Li Kuo, although not a combat-type guy, had undergone professional training at Yanhuang Soul. Facing a two-person pincer attack, he showed no signs of falling behind, and even after continuous counterattacks, he had hopes of winning.

After all, Li Kuo was a man capable of dodging a bullet. Though his physical sensitivity didn't match someone like Li San, compared to these so-called experts, he was far superior.

But Li Kuo was originally just a frail scholar, his individual strength hadn't grown fast. So, he couldn't immediately resolve the opponents to come to Xiaofan's aid.

The situation seemed tense, but don't forget, Long Tianjue was a very formidable guy himself, even more so than these experts.

Taking three strides and combining them into two, he rushed up and swung another punch at Xiaofan.

Despite realizing the danger, Xiaofan, who couldn't afford to split his attention, could only watch as the punch landed on him. Without the protection of Inner Strength, enduring such an attack made his body throb with dull pain.

"Useless things, can't even deal with a loser with three people? Hmph..." Long Tianjue finished his move, no longer bothering with Xiaofan, and immediately moved toward where Li Sisi was.

"Bastard, don't touch her..." Xiaofan shouted angrily, ejecting three toothpicks with one hand, suddenly shooting them toward the three surrounding him.

Without the drive of Inner Strength, even if they hit the target at close range, they would only cause minor injuries. But for Xiaofan at this moment, just a moment's space was enough.

Hearing footsteps coming from behind, Long Tianjue immediately turned around, attacking Xiaofan with large movements.

The fierce and powerful punches and kicks came toward Xiaofan, but he easily dodged them.

Long Tianjue initially had a misconception, having managed to hit Xiaofan twice earlier, thinking he could easily deal with him.

But he didn't know, how could Xiaofan's martial arts accomplishments be compared to those of a mere Long Family member?

Facing three attackers, Xiaofan struggled, but against just Long Tianjue, merely using the Ghost Shadow Step would easily dodge his fierce attacks.

The Ghost Shadow Step without Power lacked frightening speed, but the steps themselves had the wonderful use of restraining an opponent.

"Hmm. Finally here?" While easily fending off Long Tianjue's attacks, Xiaofan murmured a sentence.

Suddenly pausing his steps, he swiftly stepped forward, extending his palm and swinging it.

'Smack.'

The crisp and loud slap echoed on the quiet street. Even Long Tianjue couldn't believe it, that Xiaofan actually managed to land a slap on him.

"Damn it, what are you standing around for? Get this kid for me." Long Tianjue shouted anxiously.

But...

Right, why after fighting for so long have those guys not come up to help? Why did it suddenly become so quiet around?

Upon close inspection, Li Kuo, Li Sisi were still there, but the two who were attacking Li Kuo were already on the ground. Another three subordinates were lying on the floor in another direction.

And now, there was an additional person at the scene... Li San.

"How about that, did I arrive in time?"

"Not bad." Xiaofan wasn't inclined to engage in much small talk with Li San, his steps didn't stop, continuing toward Long Tianjue.

What happened? In that instant, what exactly happened? They clearly only exchanged a dozen moves or so with Ye Xiaofan, and they lost? Who was that person who suddenly appeared?

To be able to withstand more than a dozen moves from Li San, those five guys weren't weak. Xiaofan wasn't an idiot; knowing how strong the opponent was, he naturally informed Li San to come help. After receiving Xiaofan's location, Li San dashed over here without delay. Fortunately, everyone was okay.

"Hey, this guy seems pretty tough, I haven't fought in a while, finally get to enjoy it a bit tonight."

"Stand down."

"Hmm?"

Xiaofan suddenly told Li San to stand down, but why?

"Kid, you better be smart. If you mess with me, I'll make sure you all die horribly."

"As if letting you go now means we didn't provoke you." Xiaofan kept moving forward.

"Hmph, the Long Family's influence in the Capital City isn't something a nobody like you could understand. Let me go obediently, and put Li Sisi in my car too, I could just let this go."

"You could let it go, but I refuse to let it go like that."

"You, what do you mean?"

"You said earlier to cripple me, didn't you? Did you forget? I told you to remember those words."

As he approached, Xiaofan's gaze suddenly became sharp. Raising his hand, he reached to seize Long Tianjue.

"Hmph, don't think knowing a few tricks makes you something. I'm Long Tianjue, do you think I'd fear you?" Long Tianjue, relying on his martial upbringing since childhood, believed that the slap he received earlier must have been a fluke, so he didn't take Xiaofan seriously. What truly worried him was that mysterious guy watching calmly from the side.

'Whoosh.'

'Bang.'

In a direct confrontation, Long Tianjue had the strength to contend with Xiaofan, his attacks open and relentless, showing no mercy. As before, Xiaofan just dodged, didn't confront head-on, but...

Grasp tightly...

'Crack.'

As long as Xiaofan caught your flaw, that was enough to make you suffer.

The sound of bones being cracked echoed promptly.

"Ah..." Long Tianjue immediately let out a blood-curdling scream.

"You little bastard, how dare you, how dare you..."

'Crack...'

Shen Zuimo's taught Grapple Hand Xiaofan hadn't forgotten. Paired with the Bone-setting Method for Falls and Sprains taught by his grandfather, a simple twist could dislocate any joint you wanted.

"The Long Family, right? Impressive, right? Yes, killing is out of the question, but I have many ways to deal with you. With your little skill, you think you can cripple me? I said before, don't cry or call for help... because now, it's my turn to cripple you."

'Whoosh.'

A few silver needles in hand, Xiaofan unhesitatingly stabbed them into the acupuncture points on Long Tianjue's left hand...
