Just after getting ho, Pei Jinye received a call from Tang Huoyang.
Upon hearing the voice on the other end, Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow, “What’s the matter, calling in such a rage late at night?”
“Mad, I’m about to be disgusted to death by Fang Tianjian, that bastard. I got news that the call about my car being towed at noon was made by that son of a bitch. Does he have a black heart? So wicked that he leaks out malice!” Tang Huoyang fud.
“Fang Tianjian?” Pei Jinye paused, “Does he have a grudge against you, or is he trying to get back at you because of that baseless accusation against ?”
Tang Huoyang paused, sowhat puzzled, “Maybe both. My brother never gave his family any breaks when handling legal cases, so we ended up on their blacklist… And I just called him, that shaless jerk straight up admitted that he reported it for illegal parking… Damn it, that’s so arrogant!”
Pei Jinye’s gaze narrowed, his other hand caressing the rim of his drink can, “What do you want to do?”
“Haven’t decided yet,” Tang Huoyang grinded his teeth.
Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow, retorting, “Why not just beat him up?”
Tang Huoyang paused, then ekly admitted, “I can’t beat him… Forget it, let bygones be bygones, be magnanimous, don’t stoop to his level.”
Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow, “Or I could hit him back for you?”
Tang Huoyang quickly said, “No, no, let’s just let this go at my end. Right now, we’re just arm wrestling. He’s just being a nuisance to , and I’ll just annoy him a bit…”
Seeing his reaction, Pei Jinye didn’t say anything more. He didn’t think much of soone like Fang Tianjian, who was only good at empty talk.
He wouldn’t mind carelessly passing on a letter from the Old Gods Association to the other party, by then it would be enough for the Fang family to have a tough ti.
But that move was too vicious, Pei Jinye was temporarily afraid it would short his own life.
Early the next day.
Behind the mountains of the Bronze Association.
Pei Jinye was exfoliating against a tal post, the muffled sound echoing continuously.
He heard soone approaching.
He looked up.
What a coincidence… It was Sun Ruofan.
“What’s up?”
“Nothing, I’m going to take a painting class nearby soon, had so free ti to wander here. I heard noises and ca to check it out, turns out it’s you.” Sun Ruofan’s smile was very sweet, “Pei Jinye, what are you working so hard for? Is it for the big exam?”
Pei Jinye looked over, puzzled, and rewrapped the bandage on his hands sared with blood energy dispersal, replied nonchalantly, “Sothing like that.”
Sun Ruofan nodded thoughtfully and without another word to avoid distracting him, watched Pei Jinye resu his serious training. She then left behind a triple-layered insulated lunch box and quietly departed.
“Ruofan, are you here? Did you co to see ?” Fang Tianjian imdiately brightened when he saw Sun Ruofan coming out from the back yard, walking towards her with a full, bright smile.
Sun Ruofan kept her distance, her expression a tad colder, “You’re overthinking, I was just walking around. Anything else? If not, I’m heading off.”
“Do you have ti for lunch at noon? I’ll treat you,” Fang Tianjian accompanied her as they walked away.
The two gradually disappeared into the distance.
Quite a few trainees gathered, whispering among themselves.
“Senior Fang really is a lovesick man, isn’t he?”
“Lovesick? Heh, it’s just because he’s young. If he really catches the eye of Boss Qi, his Fang family could climb at least one more step!”
“But I saw Sun Ruofan coming from the back mountain, isn’t that place…”
“Shh, don’t talk about it, better to mind our own business.”
But suddenly, they heard Fang Tianjian’s voice chill, “What are you talking about? What happened behind the mountain?”
Everyone looked at each other, heads lowered, trying to be as far away as possible.
Fang Tianjian, recalling a ridiculous rumor, narrowed his eyes and looked towards the direction of the back mountain.
After a mont of silence, he walked quickly towards it.
A lot of gazes once again gathered there.
“What the hell is Fang Tianjian doing?”
“Mad, it’s all because you couldn’t keep your mouths shut. If Fang starts fighting with him, the clubhouse will be in chaos again.”
“Let it be chaotic, what’s it got to do with us? If Pei Jinye gets beaten up, Li Xiaoyin can’t bla us for it. Besides, the association isn’t just Li Xiaoyin’s world.”
“I heard Li Xiaoyin’s father is moving up this year.”
“Really?”
“If he does move up, then the Li family could truly join the first rank.”
“Then this…”
“Go get in touch with Tang Huoyang, if he can step in to resolve this, all the better.”
At the photography studio.
“Did you make contact?”
“He seems… very dull.”
“Don’t be impatient. The fact that he’s been able to train to this extent in such a short ti suggests he’s no ordinary person. Maybe he’s just pretending with you. You also shouldn’t seek him out too frequently, lest you be misunderstood. After all, we are the embodint of justice…”
“Understood.”
The back mountain.
Pei Jinye was hitting an ironwood stake when another person arrived. He didn’t take his eyes off his training, but it was the other who spoke first.
“It’s rather boring to train alone, isn’t it? How about a spar?” Fang Tianjian approached with a smile.
Pei Jinye looked up.
He wasn’t familiar with Fang Tianjian.
Noticing a tiny crack on the ironwood stake, he nodded and replied with a smile, “Let’s!”
Fang Tianjian took off his jacket, revealing his tanned and muscular physique, as he announced with Qi sinking into his Dantian, “Co on!”
Almost simultaneously, both sprang into action, kicking up dust.
Fang Tianjian started with a continuous dual-fist combo, his front punch aid straight at Pei Jinye’s forehead. The second punch, however, was the real rear hand, storing up more power.
This was the technique he started learning in the third month after joining the club, over a year ago, and he had already mastered it.
But
“Bang!” “Bang!”
Both punches were blocked by Pei Jinye. He naturally didn’t use any transcendental abilities from other systems. He relied solely on technique and exfoliation to fend off the punches.
Fang Tianjian was visibly startled.
These punches were famously deceptive. The first was straightforward, but the second was a true finishing move.
He expected Pei Jinye would be at least sowhat embarrassed, but to his surprise, Pei Jinye had blocked it with just his physical body.
Distracted for a mont, he heard an inquiring voice from across, “Your technique has sothing to it. What’s it called?”
“Double ring fist!” Fang Tianjian replied, recovering his wits but with slight hesitation, “You exfoliated?”
“Indeed. Seems to be quite effective. But you didn’t use your full strength, did you?” Pei Jinye casually waved away the bruising on his arms, unconcerned.
Fang Tianjian’s heart sank.
This guy was very strong.
“Not bad, I only used 30% of my strength. Shall we go again?”
“Let’s!”
After speaking, they charged at each other once more.Y0u can read sh0rt, t0uching, and r0mantic st0ries ab0ut c0uples, as well as children’s st0ries f0r free 0n sitest0rys . c0m
The fierceness emanating from Pei Jinye made Fang Tianjian’s eyelids twitch as he felt a bone-chilling sensation from his arm and cursed internally.
Yet unexpectedly, Pei Jinye caught an opening and t him with a knee strike.
Fang Tianjian quickly powered up his ability, enhancing his attack speed, his legs twisting like a crocodile’s.
“Good one!”
Pei Jinye’s eyes lit up. He instantly withdrew his leg and ramd forward hard with the Sticking to the mountain posture he’d recently mastered.
Fang Tianjian felt his heart skip a beat.
He swung his leg to counterstrike.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
As the dust flew around them,
they exchanged blows rapidly.
Fang Tianjian’s attacks were indeed fast. After one punch from Pei Jinye, he could throw out three or four, but in terms of strength, he was no match for Pei Jinye… A single punch from Pei Jinye would leave him with a trembling blood energy and sore bones.
This was sothing Fang Tianjian just couldn’t match!
Soon, the back mountain echoed with sounds like beating drums, drawing the attention of many students from the club.
“Is that Senior Fang Tianjian and Pei Jinye?”
“What are they doing?”
“Could it be because of that rumor? A fit of rage for the sake of a beauty?”
“What rumor?”
“The girl Fang Tianjian likes is going out with Pei Jinye.”
“Damn, for real?”
“But this Pei Jinye is actually so strong, on equal footing with Senior Fang Tianjian.”
“Can’t you see Fang Tianjian is holding back? He’s been training for two years, surely he can’t be matched by a rookie who’s barely been in for a month?”
