In the center of Zhongtian Wellness Club, Li Shun and the others were still immersed in shock.

All of them had not come back to their senses even now.

The illustrious and invincible Qiu Yidao was actually defeated?

And furthermore, he was defeated by Yang Fei, who was merely at the Mingjin Earth Grade.

This was something that Li Shun and Bai Yang couldn't understand.

"Boss, do you think Yang Fei could have been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger?"

"His Martial Arts Realm must be higher than Qiu Yidao's, otherwise, it just can't be explained."

Bai Yang had also suffered many injuries and his face was pale.

However, in his eyes, there was nothing but confusion.

"Alas, the more I see of him, the less I understand— a Land Rover and a favor have saved all our lives. We really got lucky."

Li Shun sighed, originally thinking he had completely figured out Yang Fei.

But now, he only felt that Yang Fei was unfathomably mysterious and even more elusive.

"It's fortunate that we are friends, not foes; otherwise, this person would be far more terrifying than Qiu Yidao."

Upon hearing Li Shun say this, Bai Yang nodded in agreement.

Thinking back on Yang Fei's ghostly and enigmatic movement technique and elusive figure, both of their spines chilled.

"Alas, the first round of attacks from Golden Buddha has just begun."

"The appearance of Qiu Yidao nearly had us all cooked in the same pot, and if another, even more formidable Yan Wuxin were to show up…"

Li Shun's face turned pale as he thought of Qiu Yidao's sharp and unbeatable sword techniques, his anxiety growing.

Bai Yang also felt overwhelmed and cast his eyes down.

However, Bai Yang thought even further ahead.

He spoke lightly, "Big brother, don't forget that above Yan Wuxin and Qiu Yidao, there's the fearsome Golden Buddha."

"That Buddha Lord is a truly unfathomable Great Grandmaster."

Li Shun nodded, his face growing even more ashen.

He felt despair rising in his heart like a tide.

Although Qiu Yidao had been repelled, he could return at any time.

And Yan Wuxin and Golden Buddha had not yet made their moves.

Li Shun and Bai Yang were like insignificant ants, struggling desperately under the malevolent mockery of fate, one misstep away from irredeemable doom.

Just then, Yang Fei walked into the third-floor hall, carrying a baseball bat and looking very spirited.

The sly smile on his face was enough to make anyone howl.

Almost everyone in the hall was an associate of Li Shun's.

They had all seen with their own eyes how Yang Fei had used his incredibly profound techniques to drive away Qiu Yidao.

A master like him would normally receive everyone's admiration and worship.

But looking at this carefree, yellow weasel-like fellow, everyone just couldn't bring themselves to admire him.

"Everybody has worked hard. Brothers who are injured, hurry to the hospital. If there's any issue, just mention my name, it'll work!"

Yang Fei made his way, constantly hugging some associates, familiar or not, with a look of presumptuous friendliness.

Two people followed behind him.

The elegant and tall Fan Yi and the lean and fierce Yi Long—one serene and aloof, the other robust like a leopard!

Though it was just three of them, their invisible aura naturally exuded a, invincible and awe-inspiring air.

Li Shun and Bai Yang exchanged glances, and a preposterous idea suddenly surged in Li Shun's mind.

Li Shun was clear in his heart that he was facing a desperate situation.

Yang Fei's intervention had already repaid all favors.

The next time Qiu Yidao came to kill, there would be no one to match him.

Li Shun and his group of brothers, including himself, had no choice but to face death.

If they wanted to survive, the only way out was to seek protection with Lanting Liquor—perhaps then, they would have a slim chance of life.

Almost in an instant, Li Shun made his decision.

Yang Fei walked over, and Li Shun bowed deeply to him.

"Thank you, Brother Yang, for saving my life. If it weren't for you and your two brothers today, I, Li Shun, would have definitely not escaped from Qiu Yidao's blade."

Yang Fei helped Li Shun up, appearing modest but actually brimming with pride.

"Boss Li, don't mention it. It's just what you do in the Mortal World to help someone in an emergency, no thanks needed."

Li Shun let out a deep sigh, turned his head to give a couple of instructions, and had Bai Yang arrange for people to clean up the aftermath.

He straightened a few chairs that had toppled to the ground and invited Yang Fei to sit down.

"I am truly grateful for Brother Yang stepping in to help. Moreover, I have a few words I'd like to discuss with Brother Yang if it's not too inconvenient?"

Yang Fei looked at Li Shun's respectful demeanor and felt a bit bemused, but he chuckled and said, "What is it that Boss Li would like to talk about?"

Li Shun looked around and saw that in the hall, all the staff and the injured were starting to disperse under Bai Yang's arrangements.

After a while, everyone had cleared out.

Among them, the injured Yi Long was also taken to the hospital for treatment.

In the messy hall, only Li Shun, Yang Fei, and Fan Yi remained.

Yang Fei, getting a bit impatient, said indifferently, "Boss Li, you can speak now."

Without another word, Li Shun dropped to his knees with a thud.

He heavily kowtowed on the floor, "I beg Brother Yang to take me and my men under your wing, otherwise, we have no way to live."

Yang Fei and Fan Yi were both taken aback.

Neither of them had expected Li Shun, a prominent Big Rascal, to kneel so readily, completely lacking in pride.

Yang Fei narrowed his eyes, his thoughts whirling swiftly, and he immediately grasped Li Shun's intentions.

He had not wanted to get involved in the disputes of the Mortal World, yet now he had severely wounded Qiu Yidao.

Moreover, due to Lin Xueyi, his conflict with Young Master Sun was beyond reconciliation.

It seemed that a confrontation with Golden Buddha was inevitable sooner or later.

Taking Li Shun in now was simply a favor done in passing.

With these thoughts, Yang Fei gave a smirk and said, "Huaxia is a society ruled by law. No matter how domineering Golden Buddha is in the Mortal World, can he really overturn the heavens?"

"Tomorrow, we'll take the Wolf Fang Club and burst that old fellow's chrysanthemum."

Upon hearing this, Li Shun was overjoyed.

The power of Golden Buddha was simply too overwhelming.

Li Shun had not expected Yang Fei to be able to stand against the Golden Buddha; he was only hoping for Yang Fei's protection during their flight.

The thought of confronting Golden Buddha head-on was unimaginable to him.

But hearing Yang Fei speak so casually, as if he did not regard the fearsome Golden Buddha in the slightest, changed things.

Li Shun was not a coward, but still, his heart skipped a beat at such words.

In the vast Mortal World of Shan Province, only a madman or a fool would speak like that.

Yang Fei was neither a fool nor a madman.

If he dared to speak such words, it meant he must have a way to face Golden Buddha.

Li Shun felt an inexplicable trust in Yang Fei.

Perhaps it was because he had witnessed too many unbelievable feats from him, Li Shun hardly doubted Yang Fei's words.

As a matter of fact, while speaking, Yang Fei's palms were sweating.

If he were at the peak of his Martial Arts, no matter how strong the opponent, he could fight.

But now, having fallen from his Realm, he had nothing but speed.

Yang Fei truly had no confidence in dealing with the venerated Buddha of the Provincial City.
