"Lin Hong, who is this person? How dare he speak to you like that?"
"These lowly servants, clueless about the danger they're in. Look at him, he has no idea how to behave in upper society."
"Lin Hong, has this servant ever offended you? Would you like us to help?"
Several companions nearby smirked, looking at Xu Fan with disdain.
Where is this place? The Alchemy Pavilion! It is the cornerstone of the Elixir Pharmacy! Not even a member of any Hidden World Families would dare to act arrogantly here!
This is their home turf! They could easily pin any crime on the annoying servant in front of them and have him executed!
Even with Xu Fan's cultivation level, a surge of unnamable anger rose in his heart at that moment, "Servant? Who gave you the right to define people however you please? What makes you think you can say I am a servant?"
"Right?"
The young ladies seemed to hear something absurd, and laughed arrogantly at Xu Fan, their demeanor filled with contempt.
"Do we need any right to call you a servant?" One girl finally spoke, laughing while pointing at Xu Fan.
Listening to their tone, it was as if calling Xu Fan a servant was a huge favor for him.
"Another bunch of idiots..."
Xu Fan shook his head at this point, retracting his gaze from the young ladies.
He had seen too many people like this; the sudden occurrence with these young girls caught him slightly off guard.
But realistically, why would such matters concern gender? The type of family, the kind of atmosphere, determines the people. It's not at all related to gender.
To Xu Fan, these young ladies were just minor characters like Liu Tianle and Gu Feng; naturally, he wouldn't bother quarreling with them.
However, despite Xu Fan being indifferent toward them, the young ladies refused to let him go.
"Servant! Who are you calling an idiot?"
"Kneel and apologize to Lin Hong! Otherwise, you'll never have the chance to apologize again!"
"Why waste words with a servant? Just get the lower ranks to dispose of him!"
Their tone suggested handling an insignificant item, casually deciding Xu Fan's fate.
Xu Fan realized he was a bit naive. Let them go? They would only escalate their actions!
This group was inherently unruly, the more indulgent, the more reckless they became.
Now, Xu Fan, expressionless, stood up and walked step by step toward the young ladies.
Thump, thump, thump.
As Xu Fan approached, the young ladies panicked in unison.
"Impudent! What do you think you're doing?"
"Foolish servant! This is the Alchemy Pavilion! Do you dare act recklessly here?"
Among them, Lin Hong appeared the most terrified. Lin Hong had seen Xu Fan's methods before; he had directly slapped her in front of Elder Yi, not once but three times.
Earlier, Lin Hong had deliberately incited her companions to attack Xu Fan, intending to provoke him and have the Alchemy Pavilion's people kill him. But now, as Xu Fan approached her step by step, with those cold eyes locked onto her, Lin Hong realized she might have acted too rashly.
Provoking Xu Fan, inciting him to act within the Alchemy Pavilion, then using its powers to kill him was a good plan; but Lin Hong had neglected her safety until now, enveloped in Xu Fan's murderous intent, realizing the flaw in her scheme.
Tap!
Xu Fan stopped, standing before Lin Hong and the young ladies, with his aura bursting forth, embracing them in an overwhelmingly violent intent to kill.
"Kneel."
Xu Fan's cold voice echoed throughout the empty Alchemy Pavilion. The words were brief yet irrefutable, as if any defiance would result in their immediate execution by Xu Fan.
All this stemmed from the gap in cultivation levels. The young ladies, pursuing the path of alchemists, naturally lagged far behind Xu Fan's cultivation level. Added to their upbringing in protected comforts, they were utterly unprepared to withstand Xu Fan's ferocity.
At this moment, Lin Hong's legs began shaking involuntarily, seemingly ready to kneel at any moment, while the other girls couldn't endure, collapsing kneeling before Xu Fan, faces pale and devoid of color.
Evidently, now they all realized the danger Lin Hong feared earlier; before the Alchemy Pavilion's intervention, Xu Fan might truly choose to kill them.
The young ladies' minds were blank, gazing at Xu Fan's suddenly imposing figure, feeling as if their world had collapsed.
How could there be someone so fearless of death in this world? What is the point of acting this way? Not to mention that he won't survive the Alchemy Pavilion, even if he did, their family influence could easily erase him.
Yet, this servant chose to act against them, forcing them to kneel, even threatening to kill them!
This person was nothing short of a madman!
Xu Fan never looked at the kneeling young ladies, but coldly faced the trembling Lin Hong, speaking distinctly, "Do you truly wish to die?"
The last time at the Elixir Pharmacy's counter, Xu Fan had a murderous intent towards Lin Hong, but Elder Yi was present then, and Xu Fan worried that killing Lin Hong would affect his relic spot in a month, so he only gave her three slaps.
He thought those three slaps would teach Lin Hong a lesson, but after just one day, Lin Hong behaved the same way, even inciting trouble, using the young ladies and Li Hua against him.
This time, Xu Fan was genuinely enraged.
"What do you intend to do?"
Now, Lin Hong was trembling, looking at Xu Fan with fear, yet refusing to kneel, gritting her teeth and threatening Xu Fan, "Don't forget, this is the Alchemy Pavilion! If you harm even a hair on me, you won't leave here alive..."
Slap!
Lin Hong's words hadn't finished when Xu Fan slapped her mercilessly.
Alchemy Pavilion? Zhiwei Realm expert? For Xu Fan now, facing a Zhiwei Realm expert is no longer impossible.
In the worst case, Xu Fan might expose his Spirit Refinement cultivation, but he would fiercely unleash the anger festering within.
