The Town Chief and his group were sent flying, eventually all crashing to the ground, wailing continuously.

They had not expected that a seemingly fragile woman was actually so powerful; moreover, the strength she exhibited seemed even greater than that of Yifan, which was shocking.

Yifan was someone who could easily annihilate the Zheng family clan. If she was stronger than Yifan, how terrifying that would be! Just thinking about it made them shiver. Now, it seemed they had to reassess this woman who the Mountain God had specifically named to visit him in the cave.

On the other side, the seriously injured son of the Town Chief was also shocked. He had not anticipated that a frail woman could be so formidable, knocking down dozens of their men with just a word. The thought itself was terrifying.

"How can she be so strong?"

His face was filled with disbelief; now, he was somewhat relieved that the person who had hit him was the severely injured Yifan.

In the distance, the people of Lin Family Village were also constantly surprised, obviously, they too had not guessed that little Fang could be so powerful.

The situation now was overwhelmingly one-sided, and the people of Lin Family Village really wanted to step forward to defend Yifan and the others; but they were afraid of being cursed by the Mountain God, so they dared not come forward.

The voice carried far, and Zhou Jiajia, An Qi, Su Qingqing, little Lian, and Father Lin, who were anxiously waiting at home for little Fang and Yifan to come back, heard Fang's furious voice, so they all walked out of their homes to see what was happening.

Little Fang did not kill anyone, after all she was too kind-hearted. Those who rushed to attack Yifan were mostly old men, she couldn't bring herself to harm them, and could only give them a lesson and warning.

After knocking down the Town Chief and his group, little Fang quickly moved to Yifan's side, supporting the infuriated Yifan whose injuries had flared up; then she asked with a concerned face, "Yifan! Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, let's go," Yifan said weakly, clutching his painfully throbbing chest.

"Okay!"

Without hesitation, little Fang immediately helped Yifan to leave.

However, just as they stepped forward, the Town Chief angrily slapped the ground and got up: "Want to leave? No way!"

His son had been severely injured right before his eyes, and as a father, he had to seek revenge no matter what.

So, he picked up a stick and attacked Yifan with a murderous look on his face.

At that moment, little Fang could no longer hold back, and with a burst of Cultivation Power, she sent the middle-aged Town Chief flying, unable to get up again.

"Ungrateful!"

After dropping a harsh line, little Fang continued to support Yifan in leaving, paying no heed to whether the Town Chief lived or died.

The injured Town Chief on the ground felt a complete loss of face and was very angry; ever since he had become the Town Chief, he had never faced such humiliation, so his heart was filled with resentment. He then shouted, "Attack! All of you, attack! Beat those two scoundrels to death."

However, not one of his accompanying men dared to move forward, which was a real slap in the face.

"Attack! Why aren't you attacking? Are you afraid of dying? Dammit! When I was in power, you all flocked to curry favor with me; now that I'm being humiliated, you're all scared to death, nothing but a bunch of ungrateful wretches."

The Town Chief cursed bitterly, a deep cut to the heart.

As the saying goes, adversity reveals true friends, and now he found himself in a crisis where everyone would flee for their own lives.

The group that had followed the Town Chief looked down, too ashamed to face him. Honestly, it wasn't that they didn't want to help, but they were powerless to do so. The opposition was simply too strong, and if they went forward, they would face certain death. So, between loyalty and life, they chose the latter.

In this lawful society, only fools would step forward to take a bullet for you.

After the trouble was resolved, Xiaofang continued to support Lin Yifan as they left, heading towards home.

At this time, Lin's father and Zhou Jiajia hurried to the scene.

Seeing Lin Yifan's clothes tattered and soaked in blood, Zhou Jiajia and the others burst into tears, their hearts aching painfully.

Then they rushed over anxiously and asked, "Yifan! How did you end up like this? Who did this to you?"

"Let's talk about it when we get back. I just want to rest now," Lin Yifan answered.

In his condition, he shouldn't overexert himself and needed plenty of rest.

"Alright, alright! We'll help you get back now," Zhou Jiajia and the others dared not go against Lin Yifan's wishes and immediately helped him leave.

Under the careful escort of Zhou Jiajia and the others, Lin Yifan finally made it back home safely.

At that point, he locked himself in to meditate and heal.

Meanwhile, Zhou Jiajia and the others wisely did not disturb him, staying away from the room, they gathered in the living room and asked Xiaofang about the specifics.

"Xiaofang, why is Yifan so badly injured?"

"He was beaten by the Mountain God," Xiaofang answered.

"What a Mountain God, daring to hurt my son! I am going now to settle the score with you," Lin's father was furious, then grabbed a firewood chopping knife and intended to go to the back mountain for revenge.

However, he had just started moving when Xiaofang grabbed him, "Uncle! There's no need to go, the Mountain God has already been killed by Yifan."

"What? The Mountain God was killed by Yifan? Is this true?" Lin's father said, his face full of disbelief.

In his mind, the Mountain God was an Immortal, how could it be easily killed by a mere mortal? It was utterly inconceivable.

"It's true, the Mountain God is not the Immortal we thought, but a demon. As for what it looked like, only Yifan knows. Just now, Yifan barely escaped death," Xiaofang answered.

"So it is, it seems we were all blinded by this Mountain God," Lin's father murmured to himself.

Thinking about how for many years, they had worshipped the Mountain God every month and during the festivals, he felt it was absurd to think it was just a demon.

Now that they knew the cause of Lin Yifan's injuries, Zhou Jiajia and the others were concerned about whether Lin Yifan's injuries would worsen and whether they could be healed; hence they asked Xiaofang, "Xiaofang, are Yifan's injuries serious? Can he recover fully?"

"Yifan's injuries are very severe, he was hanging by a thread. Luckily, he had many healing Elixirs on him, otherwise he might have left us. Now the situation has mostly improved, with more Elixir consumption and a few days of rest, he should be fine," Xiaofang answered.

"Then we are relieved," Zhou Jiajia and the others finally felt that they could let go of the heavy stone in their hearts.

Soon after, Lin's mother woke up. Knowing that her son was seriously injured, she kept nagging Lin Yifan while also worrying about his safety.

After all, he was her own son, and even if her son had provoked the Mountain God, she would still protect him.

Hearing that Lin's mother was not blaming the Mountain God but instead blaming Lin Yifan, Zhou Jiajia and the others couldn't stand it and immediately explained the whole story to her.

When Lin's mother heard that the Mountain God they worshipped day and night in the town was a demon, she laughed, finding the words of Zhou Jiajia and the others absurd and nonsensical.
