Top-tier Unruly Master

"Kid, you really don't know whether you're alive or dead," Lin Jiacheng snorted coldly.

Previously, at the entrance of the banquet hall, the Chinese medicine relic and medical celebrity Owen had strongly supported Ding Fan. This kid not only sabotaged Lin Jiacheng's plan to put Lin Beijiang in his place but also allowed this youngster to show off spectacularly. For a moment, he became the center of everyone's attention.

Lin Jiacheng had still been looking for an opportunity to teach Ding Fan a lesson. Now, Ding Fan had delivered himself to the door.

Although Ding Fan had the backing of Tian Mao and Owen, if the White Lotus Sect decided to teach Ding Fan a lesson, Tian Mao, no matter how powerful, would definitely not dare to challenge the White Lotus Sect. After all, the White Lotus Sect was one of the Hidden Sects, which no one dared to provoke lightly.

"Ji Dufeng, today's youth do not know the immensity of heaven and earth, please take the trouble to teach him a lesson," Lin Jiacheng said from the side.

Ji Dufeng let out a strange, cackling laugh. Then he said to Ding Fan, "Then let me show him the consequences of not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth!"

Ji Dufeng's figure flickered, and his body vanished from the spot like a ghost.

Lin Beijiang's brows furrowed tightly when he saw this scene. In his prime, even when he was a Human Level Peak martial artist, he had never seen such a movement technique. It could be said that Ji Dufeng's movement technique was the best among all martial artists below the Human Level, such an insane technique that even Earth Level martial artists might suffer against.

Just as Lin Beijiang was worried that Ding Fan would be at a disadvantage, Ding Fan kicked out directly.

As Ding Fan's kick was launched, with a loud bang, Ji Dufeng, who had already hidden himself from view, was directly kicked back several steps.

What was going on?!

In Lin Jiacheng's view, Ji Dufeng initiating a move meant that Ding Fan could only be beat up, but even if it killed him, he could not believe that a Human Level Peak martial artist had been forced back by just one kick from Ding Fan.

Lin Jiacheng was surprised, and Lin Zhanting was even more astonished.

He knew Ding Fan was incredible, but he had not anticipated that Ding Fan would be so formidable, being a Human Level Peak martial artist...

At this moment, Ji Dufeng himself was also wide-eyed, incredulously staring at Ding Fan across from him.

Ding Fan was only so young, without even a hint of Inner Strength fluctuation, how could he possibly have forced him back?!

While Ji Dufeng was still astounded, Ding Fan stood with his hands behind his back. "This is the Lin Family's internal affair; I advise you not to interfere anymore."

After Ding Fan spoke, a tidal wave of murderous intent suddenly erupted.

A Fourth Level Qi Cultivation Cultivator, accustomed to the bloody killings in the Cultivation World, how tremendous that might be. For a moment, everyone in the room, except for Lin Beijiang and Lin Zhanting, was enveloped in this thick murderous aura.

At that time, several of Lin Beijiang's old subordinates were so frightened that they trembled all over, some of the elders were even scared to the point of urinating on themselves.

These people were merely opportunists who sided with whomever was powerful, and in front of absolute power, how could they maintain their composure.

Even the usually silent Ghost Brother had turned pale at this time; though he was barely controlling his body, he couldn't stop himself from trembling.

Lin Jiacheng also displayed a terrified expression, and then he abruptly sat down on the couch...

After all, Ji Dufeng was a Human Level Peak martial artist; facing such murderous intent, he wasn't as shaken as the others, but his complexion also turned ugly.

Ding Fan was only twenty-two or twenty-three years old, and such overwhelming murderous intent couldn't have been cultivated overnight.

Recalling how he had been forced back by Ding Fan's kick and now feeling the killing aura being emitted from his body, Ji Dufeng's gaze changed a few times before he made up his mind.

"Ding Fan... I will remember your name…"

After saying these words, Ji Dufeng's figure flickered.

Lin Jiacheng hadn't even understood what was happening when the room's window was suddenly opened, and by the time he turned his head to look for Ji Dufeng again, he had already disappeared.

A Human Level Peak martial artist, just retreating due to a single sentence and a kick from Ding Fan?!

Lin Jiacheng's brow furrowed tightly.

Seeing Ji Dufeng leave, Ding Fan then withdrew the overwhelming murderous intent. He glanced at Lin Jiacheng's subordinates who were with Lin Beijiang.

"Do I need to send you off as well?" Ding Fan said in a cold tone, without a trace of emotion.

"Let's go..."

"We are leaving now..."

...

Throughout their lives, people like Qiu Mingcheng were only opportunists who flattered those in power. After experiencing that overwhelming murderous intent and feeling Ding Fan's frightening power, how could they dare stay any longer? Including that useless Lawyer Liu, they all scrambled out in fear.

Lin Jiacheng slowly stood up from his seat, looking coldly at Ding Fan.

"Do you think you've won now?"

Without much concern, Ding Fan glanced at Lin Jiacheng. "You might as well bring out all your trump cards now."

Lin Jiacheng turned to look at the Helmsman of the Ghosts.

"Ghost Brother, now that things have come to this, as long as you help me seize Tianyang Group, I am willing to split the group's assets with you!"

"Fiend! How disgraceful can you be, Lin Jiacheng? I always thought you retained the spirit of our Lin Family, but today you have greatly disappointed me. To think that you would collude with outsiders and scheme against our family's assets!" Lin Beijiang's gaze was razor-sharp at this moment.

Lin Jiacheng snorted coldly. "Disgraceful, am I? When you, for the sake of wealth and honor, cunningly schemed to kill my father, wasn't that disgraceful? How is it that you can scheme, and I cannot?!"

"I'll say it again, if you really want to know the whole story, I will find an occasion to tell you, but that time is certainly not now," Lin Beijiang stated.

"Twisting the truth... I have to win today's game," Lin Jiacheng said. He then turned again to address Ah Gui. "Ah Gui, I need your help with today's matter."

Ah Gui, who had been silent since he arrived, pondered for a moment before speaking. "Lin Jiacheng, I came here today just to tell you one thing."

Seeing Ah Gui's demeanor, Lin Jiacheng was taken aback. He had a bad feeling about this.

Ah Gui continued. "From now on, you are no longer the Helmsman of our Hongmen. You and my Hongmen have no more ties."

"What?!"

Lin Jiacheng could hardly believe his ears.

Previously, he had discussed matters concerning the Tianyang Group with Ah Gui countless times, and Ah Gui had always been supportive. He had never imagined that Ah Gui would say such a thing.

Not only was he not helping him, but he had also expelled him from Hongmen.

After saying these words, Ah Gui ignored the still shocked Lin Jiacheng and walked straight up to Ding Fan.

"Young brother, if there's ever anything you need from me, Ah Gui, feel free to ask," he said.

Upon finishing his words, Ah Gui then turned and left.

Ah Gui?!

The leader of Hongmen, referring to himself as Ah Gui in front of a barely twenty-year-old Ding Fan. What was going on?!

At this point, Lin Jiacheng was completely confounded.

At this moment, not just Lin Jiacheng, but also Lin Beijiang on the side felt utterly confused; Ah Gui was clearly invited by Lin Jiacheng, but why did he end up switching sides to Ding Fan and even calling himself Ah Gui?

No one knew, but Ding Fan did.

Ding Fan had earlier called Zhunxing.

After all, the banquet hall was surrounded by many gunmen, and without the help of the Red Spider from Zhunxing's hands, today's matter might have implicated innocents.

After hanging up with Ding Fan, the first thing Zhunxing did was to call Ah Gui of Hongmen.

In Yahuan State, Red Spider is a renowned assassin organization whose targets rarely live to see another day.

Though Hongmen had many followers, they were no match for the professionals of Red Spider, after all, professional hitmen were hard to defend against.

Zhunxing told Ah Gui from Hongmen that Ding Fan was his boss.

Now, who in the underworld doesn't know that Zhunxing is the new boss of Red Spider and that Ding Fan is the boss of that Red Spider, so how could Ah Gui of Hongmen dare to offend Ding Fan?

After all, that's the boss of his boss's boss.

In the private room, as Ah Gui also left, Lin Jiacheng stood there alone.

Originally, Lin Jiacheng had meticulously planned everything, involving both the White Lotus Sect and Hongmen. Apart from these, there were the elderly men of Tianyang Group who had issues with Lin Beijiang, and lawyers...

Lin Jiacheng thought that today's affair would definitely succeed; otherwise, he wouldn't have invited all the notable figures from Honggang City.

The purpose of inviting these people was just one—to have them witness Lin Beijiang hand over Tianyang Group to him.

But in the end, Lin Jiacheng never expected things to turn out the way they did.

The head of White Lotus Sect, Ji Dufeng, left, and Ah Gui of Hongmen not only left but also directly stripped him of his title as Helmsman and brother of Hongmen. Even those from Tianyang Group who were prepared to support him fled in disgrace...

He lost...

Although Lin Jiacheng hesitated to admit it, today, he had indeed been defeated utterly...

"Ding Fan, my young friend, please take Zhan Ting and leave. I need to have a proper talk with Jiacheng," Lin Beijiang sighed and said.

Ding Fan nodded. What remained were Lin family's internal affairs; at this point, there was indeed no need for him to stay.

Ding Fan went to Lin Jiacheng's side and directly sealed several of Lin Jiacheng's meridians with his fingers.

Thus, Lin Jiacheng was unable to muster his Inner Strength. Should he harbor any ill intentions, Lin Beijiang would be able to handle him alone.

After making these preparations, Ding Fan and Lin Zhanting then left the private room.

As he stepped out of the private room, Ding Fan saw a man pulling Hu Jin along and speaking, while Hu Jin's face showed a visibly displeased expression.

Ding Fan frowned slightly and then headed over to where Hu Jin was.
