Ye Tianfan thought of this and immediately smiled, not expecting this revenge to come so quickly.

Ye Tianfan could already anticipate the next scene, where those people carry the old man to the Dragon Gate Inn to block him, then have the old man identify him, and either kill him or punish him. In any case, if he were an ordinary person, things would be very miserable.

Unfortunately, Ye Tianfan was not an ordinary person, so he didn't care about that troop at all and continued to stroll the streets on his own.

He browsed this stall and glanced at that one, buying anything that looked good or fun, as money was not an issue for him now.

By the time Ye Tianfan returned to the Dragon Gate Inn, it was already getting dark.

And as expected, that troop was already there waiting for Ye Tianfan to arrive, and they were getting very impatient, as shown by the man sitting in the main seat with eyeliner and a flamboyant appearance, who had a darkened face.

Ye Tianfan entered whistling, not even glancing at those people, and walked straight to the bar to say to the shopkeeper, "Get me something nice to eat later."

"Sure thing, sir, take your time!" The shopkeeper replied and turned to head to the kitchen, but before entering, he glanced back at the Northern Guardian with a look of pity.

Who do you think you are picking a fight with? You just had to mess with a cultivator, especially during the barren ancient Red Moon period, and one who had killed two demon beasts with brutal methods while sightseeing.

Moreover, the shopkeeper himself had connections and wasn't afraid of these four guardians, not to mention he wasn't even afraid of the City Lord because his backer was much more formidable than the City Lord.

Also, as soon as the Northern Guardian entered the inn, he acted all high and mighty, demanding the shopkeeper to go to room four and drag someone out.

Of course, the shopkeeper ignored him. When the Northern Guardian saw that the shopkeeper wasn't paying attention to him and wanted to cause trouble for the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper directly revealed his backing, instantly making the Northern Guardian behave.

And once the Northern Guardian had a conflict with Ye Tianfan, the damaged items and losses could be claimed directly from the City Lord. After deducting the cost of buying new furniture, all other profits would be his, so the shopkeeper had no reason to stop this conflict.

The Northern Guardian saw Ye Tianfan's disdainful demeanor and couldn't help but twitch at the mouth, frowning.

His expression turned from annoyance to fury, as he drew the sword from his waist with a "clank" and shouted sharply at Ye Tianfan, "You bastard, stop right there."

Ye Tianfan heard this and turned to glance at the Northern Guardian, then calmly smiled, "Call me dad, call me dad and I'll stop."

The Northern Guardian was utterly taken aback by Ye Tianfan's response and stood there dumbfounded.

Ye Tianfan, however, did not stop walking and continued to head upstairs, though his pace became very slow, as if waiting for the Northern Guardian to get angry.

The Northern Guardian was directly enraged. How many years, how many years had it been since someone had messed with him like this? Very well, let me use my sword and your blood to soothe my anger!

The sword in the Northern Guardian's hand buzzed as it shot towards Ye Tianfan.

"It appeared, the Guardian's magical treasure!"

"I never thought I'd see it again, the Guardian activating a treasure with a mortal body!"

"Flying sword, the legendary flying sword!"

As the sword shot from the Northern Guardian's hand, the guards accompanying him were amazed, gasping in admiration.

Yet, Ye Tianfan simply tilted his head and evaded the sword's attack.

After hearing these people's words, he became curious, wondering if anyone could truly activate a magical treasure with a mortal body.

Ye Tianfan used his divine sense to sense the magical treasure in the Northern Guardian's hand when he retrieved it.

After sensing it, he burst out laughing.

This was no magical treasure at all; the reason these people saw it this way was that the sword's blade and hilt were connected by an extremely fine line. It must be said that this fine line was very tough, so no matter how much force was used, it wouldn't break.

Just like earlier, when Ye Tianfan dodged the sword, it nailed itself into the wall behind him, and with a pull of the line, the blade was retracted without a trace.

Having such a mechanism on the sword was not clever at all, merely relying on the strength of that fine line.

But the Northern Guardian's bluffing skills were absolutely top-notch; although it was not clear how he managed it, turning it into such a spectacle certainly took some effort.

While Ye Tianfan was still chuckling, the Northern Guardian spoke up: "What, are you dumbfounded by my ability to activate a magical treasure with a mortal body? Just giggling like a fool here."

Ye Tianfan heard this and didn't even know how to respond, only giving a disdainful smile and continuing upstairs, no longer intentionally slowing down.

Ye Tianfan thought that if he continued to engage with this so-called Northern Guardian, it would lower his IQ.

"Hmm? You dare ignore me. Get him, capture him, reward those who do with ten taels of silver!" The Northern Guardian exploded.

Not only didn't he immediately fall to his knees at my majestic presence, but he didn't even deign to acknowledge me. Is he trying to play hard to get? Let me tell you, that's impossible with me. Capture him and break his legs first, then we'll talk.

Ye Tianfan was about to lose all interest upon hearing this; it seemed all scoundrels were like this, so very boring.

Ye Tianfan directly summoned the Fire Lotus Sword, then sharply pointed at the Northern Guardian, sending the Fire Lotus Sword crashing toward him.

Of course, Ye Tianfan did not intend to kill him, merely to scare him, so the Fire Lotus Sword stopped suddenly just before the Northern Guardian's neck.

The Northern Guardian jumped at first, then realized it was a flying sword hovering in front of his neck and nearly wet his pants.

This was a flying sword, a real flying sword, not a fake one like his own.

This meant the person in front of him was a cultivator, a true cultivator capable of controlling a flying sword.

My gods, I've provoked a cultivator.

"Stop, stop, all of you damn well stop!"

The Northern Guardian, now teary-eyed, yelled at his men still rushing towards Ye Tianfan, and after they halted, looked at Ye Tianfan with fear, pleading for his life, knowing even the City Lord wouldn't avenge him if the cultivator killed him.

"In the coming days, could you please be quiet? I don't want to be disturbed. I like peace and quiet, so if I'm disturbed, whoever disturbs me will be your responsibility, understand?"
