After parking the car, Lin Yifan helped Xiaofang out and then headed to the Guiyuan City Night Fragrance Auction.

However, as soon as they arrived at the plaza in front of the Night Fragrance Auction, they encountered harassment from a rich playboy.

Seeing how stunningly beautiful Xiaofang was, he became interested and approached her.

"Hey! Gorgeous, would you like to join me for a cup of coffee?" the rich playboy asked arrogantly, completely ignoring Lin Yifan's presence.

He dared to be so arrogant and ignore Lin Yifan because, firstly, he had four strong, black-clad bodyguards behind him, and secondly, his father wielded some influence in the Capital City, so ordinary people didn't dare provoke him.

"Coffee? Yifan, what is coffee?" Xiaofang asked curiously.

She had only ever drunk tea and had no idea what coffee was.

"It is said to be something that can make people feel spirited and happy," Lin Yifan replied.

He thought that surely many young girls fell prey to the sleazy rich playboy in front of them; because women who desired money couldn't refuse an invitation from a wealthy second generation; and then this rich heir could seize the opportunity to drug the coffee and then proceed to "ginger" them.

These old tricks, Lin Yifan had guessed early on; so he instantly took a dislike to the rich playboy before him.

The rich playboy didn't expect Xiaofang to not even recognize coffee. He thought such an innocent and gullible girl was easy to deceive, so he hinted, "Beauty, it's a rare opportunity. Don't miss it; this is a great chance for you to change your destiny."

He believed that no girl from an ordinary family could resist the temptation of his wealth, so he quietly waited for Xiaofang's response.

However, what he didn't know was that his hint would be met with a roar from Lin Yifan, "Scram!"

"Ah! I am giving you face by not hitting you. You really think I wouldn't dare hit you? Right now, kneel down and apologize, or else..."

The rich playboy originally wanted to show off in front of Xiaofang, but before he could finish speaking, he was sent flying by a kick from Lin Yifan.

"Squeak, squeak, your mother, eh! Really thought I wouldn't dare to hit you, idiot," Lin Yifan retorted, and the plot took a dramatic turn.

"Pfft!"

"Yifan! You're so cool, that was awesome," Xiaofang laughed while clapping her hands in celebration; Lin Yifan's kick was immensely gratifying and swept away the irritation in her heart.

In fact, she had long known that the rich playboy harbored ill intentions towards her; she didn't act because she knew that Lin Yifan would protect her.

Seeing their young master beaten, the four bodyguards immediately rushed forward in anger to attack Lin Yifan.

Lin Yifan faced off against the four strong bodyguards, unyielding with punch after punch.

In less than four seconds, he had taken care of the four bodyguards.

Now, each of the bodyguards had a broken arm with bones almost pulverized; they would likely be unable to work as thugs anymore.

The fight in front of the Night Fragrance Auction's gate on the Plaza was witnessed by many from various groups leaving the Night Fragrance Auction.

These individuals were all wealthy and powerful attendees who had just been at the auction. The rich young master hassling Xiaofang was actually one of the bidders at the auction; he simply left a bit earlier than the rest.

"Why would Lu Anqing provoke a cultivator?" a rich young master who had just come out of the Night Gui Xiang Auction House asked in confusion.

He knew the rich young master who was sprawled on the ground wailing and had socialized with him. Their parents were business partners; hence, there was some acquaintance between them.

"What goes around comes around. The more people you offend, the harder your fall," a young man replied indifferently.

He was a scion of the Ye Family, one of the thirteen great hidden clans of the Capital City, known for his composed and cool demeanor, staying out of the worldly affairs.

"Indeed, indeed! Young Master Ye is right, Lu Anqing is too arrogant, too disrespectful. I hope this teaches him a valuable lesson," chimed the rich young master who knew Lu Anqing.

From his tone, it was evident he was speaking subserviently, clearly indicating that Young Master Ye held a higher status than him.

In Yanjing, many tycoons exist, but towering above these wealthy magnates are the thirteen great clans of the Capital City; no tycoon dares to disrespect any of the clans, as each possesses considerably greater financial, material, and human resources, and with the main Sects backing them, they dare not act recklessly.

Young Master Ye didn't say much and turned to leave; he wasn't close with Lu Anqing, so whether Lu Anqing lived or died was none of his concern.

However, before he had gone far, a new situation unfolded.

At this moment, the young master of the Tian Family from the Capital City, Tian Ji, exited the auction and spotted Lin Yifan in front of the main entrance from afar.

During the Night Gui Xiang Auction in Guiyuan City, he had felt a rage against Lin Yifan that could not be shared under the heavens. The humiliation of being forced to kneel, apologize, and then kicked mercilessly remained unforgettable.

Now, seeing his former nemesis on his own turf, he saw the chance for revenge.

Thus, he immediately ordered his guards, "You there, go and take care of that guy in front of me right now."

"Yes, young master!"

The guards didn't understand why Tian Ji wanted this, but since it was his command, they went to deal with Lin Yifan.

Tian Ji knew Lin Yifan's strength, so he came prepared. Among his three guards was an early-stage Divinity Transformation First Realm expert and a peak-level Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm cultivator. These two were enough to deal with Lin Yifan, who had the strength of the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm. The addition of a Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm cultivator to the mix would undoubtedly make Lin Yifan's predicament even more troublesome.

With a smile and a leisurely, proud air, Tian Ji stood in the porch of the Night Gui Xiang Auction House entrance, quietly waiting for the outcome of the fight.

In his heart, he was certain of Lin Yifan's defeat, basking in the anticipation of his long-awaited revenge.

On the other hand, Lin Yifan, having just settled a rich young master and his four bodyguards, was now faced with three more cultivators. It was really quite exasperating.

He didn't know why these three cultivators were attacking him but upon seeing Tian Ji's toad face, he understood the reason.

"Damn it! I spared you last time, and you still haven't learned your lesson. Wanting a more profound impression? Fine! I'll give you what you wish for."

After cursing under his breath, Lin Yifan began to counterattack the three guards.

Now, his martial arts were strong enough to deal with mid-stage Divinity Transformation cultivators, so he didn't view these three guards as any threat at all.
