Chapter 359: Chapter 359: Flame Dragon Blocks the Way_1

“`

Xu Fan made his way into the city and returned to the Kowloon New City residential complex.

Unexpectedly, someone was specifically waiting there to block his path.

Xu Fan didn’t recognize the two individuals; one wore a red leather outfit and looked adorable,

while the other wore casual clothes, nonchalantly chewing gum as if nothing could pique his interest.

Xu Fan got out of the car, sized them up briefly, and acknowledged their strength; indeed, they were both figures to be reckoned with.

“You two, I don’t think I know you,” Xu Fan said, leaning against the car door, tilting his head with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

The petite girl in a leather coat and high heels, cute and delicate in appearance, took the initiative to extend her hand, “That’s right, but now we can get acquainted. My name is Xiao Bai, the captain of the Flame Dragon Organization in Zhonghai City, and this is my team member Fei Ying.”

“What can I do for you?” Xu Fan shook hands politely, maintaining a calm exterior, though inside he was full of confusion.

Upon hearing the name of the Flame Dragon Organization, his first thought was that the affair of his stealing the Blood Bodhi had been discovered.

If that were the case, it would be difficult to resolve amicably. Neither the Flame Dragon Organization nor the Moro Cult would let him off the hook.

Although Xu Fan didn’t take them seriously, he also preferred not to invite trouble.

Xiao Bai didn’t rush to answer, instead looking at Xu Fan curiously, with a smile at the corner of her mouth, she said, “Xu Fan, the sole son of Xu Tianlong, the former Family Head of the Xu Family—one of the four major families of Yan Country. For the past twenty years, you’ve been nothing remarkable, leading a life of leisure and indulgence, a textbook example of a third-generation scion.

“But three years ago, Xu Tianlong died under mysterious circumstances. After investigation, Elder Xu revealed the truth; your mother, Zhang Qingning, plotted against her own husband with poison. Consequently, Zhang Qingning was imprisoned in the family’s Shadow Prison, and the Xu Family abandoned you, expelling you from the family.”

“Homeless, you came to Zhonghai City and since lived in a daze. Not long ago, Xu Yixue came looking for you with her child, and from that point on, you changed completely. From a good-for-nothing to a jack-of-all-trades—excelling in medicine, alchemy, martial arts, and wisdom. Am I right in saying so?”

Xiao Bai continued to stare at Xu Fan, scrutinizing his expressions to find something, but ultimately, she was disappointed.

For from beginning to end, Xu Fan’s expression remained unchanged, not showing the slightest emotional fluctuation.

Xu Fan waited patiently for the leather-clad beauty to finish, then smiled and said, “Captain Xiao Bai, your detective skills are quite impressive; I feel like I’ve been stripped bare.”

Xiao Bai’s pretty face turned slightly red, feeling a little teased.

“I’m merely curious, with no other intention. I’m wondering, what could cause such a rapid change in someone? Even if I believe that fortuitous encounters exist in this world, I find it hard to accept that what happened to you is simply due to mere chance; after all, your skills couldn’t possibly have been mastered in such a short time.”

Xiao Bai paused there, suddenly recalling something, and with a change in tone, she said, “Could it be that you’ve been playing the fool for the first half of your life, deliberately letting others overlook you, while in reality, you were working harder than anyone behind the scenes? I assume this isn’t uncommon in large families.”

“Hah!” Xu Fan just laughed noncommittally, “Captain Xiao Bai, it’s a pity you don’t write suspense detective novels.”

Pleased at receiving a compliment, Xiao Bai no longer dwelled on the topic, shaking her head before saying, “All I said was just idle talk, none of these messy affairs have anything to do with me, nor do I care to bother with them. The reason we approached you is because of a certain matter.”

“What matter?”

“It’s related to that dog of yours,” Xiao Bai said seriously all of a sudden, “Mr. Lin, someone in our Flame Dragon Organization has discovered that your pet dog harbors an astonishing amount of energy. That’s not an ordinary dog, is it? Do you have anything to say about this?”

“`

So that’s what this is about!

Xu Fan relaxed slightly upon realizing they were here for Ben Ben; there was nothing to worry about. He raised an eyebrow with a smile and said, “I think you should ask my dog about these matters, if you know how to speak ‘canine’ that is.”

“Xu Fan.”

Fei Ying suddenly stepped closer, his tone harsh, “You need to straighten up your attitude. Right now, your dog is very dangerous, posing a threat to people’s lives. If it gets out of control, it could cause a tragedy. That’s why we’re here to take it away and manage its dangerous nature.”

“Take it away?” Xu Fan glanced at Fei Ying, his voice growing colder, “Other dogs, maybe, but can you really take away a dog that belongs to Xu Fan?”

Fei Ying, feeling the disdain in Xu Fan’s voice, grew angry and said, “Are you showing off your superiority? You’re just a newcomer who has just reached the Qi Drawing Realm, yet you’re so arrogant, truly ignorant of how vast this world is.”

Xu Fan couldn’t be bothered to argue and said indifferently, “Please leave, both of you. I don’t have time to entertain you; my family is waiting for me at home.”

After saying that, Xu Fan was about to pull open the car door, not willing to waste any more words.

“Bang!” Fei Ying, quick as lightning, stomped on the car door, his force so strong that it left the door somewhat dented.

Xu Fan’s expression darkened as he truly became angry.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He hadn’t wanted to confront the Flame Dragon Organization, considering it was an official entity with strong capabilities, known as law enforcers in the Ancient Martial World of Yan Country and surely included many ancient martial arts experts, possibly even those who had surpassed Martial Arts Grandmasters. Facing these powerful opponents, Xu Fan would have to take the situation very seriously.

But this Fei Ying had the gall to be so arrogant in front of him, and Xu Fan would not just let himself be bullied.

With a thought, Xu Fan also raised his leg, lightning-fast, aiming right at the foot Fei Ying had on the car door.

“Get back.”

Xiao Bai was already on guard. Seeing Xu Fan retaliate, he immediately warned.

But Fei Ying was too slow to react, and the lightning-fast kick from Xu Fan hit Fei Ying’s leg, who instantly let out a muffled groan, his face twisted in pain, and his expression as he looked at Xu Fan changed slightly.

The speed and power of Xu Fan’s kick clearly surpassed the early stages of the Qi Drawing Realm.

“Damn!” Fei Ying, in pain and gritting his teeth, refused to back down and was ready to fight again.

Xiao Bai swiftly reached out to hold onto his sleeve, his eyes slightly cold, “Mr. Xu, are you sure you want to go against the Flame Dragon Organization?”

Xu Fan, as if he had heard a joke, scoffed, “I’m not brave enough to take on Yan Country’s foremost organization all by myself. However, it seems that the one who should be saying that is me, isn’t it? Does the Flame Dragon Organization really have to trouble an ordinary person like me? Not only do you want to take my dog away, but you’ve also kicked in my car door. What’s next? Are you going to beat me up and make me beg for mercy on my knees?”

Xiao Bai felt his face heat up at the accusation but quickly regained his composure, speaking earnestly, “Mr. Xu, we apologize for not handling the situation properly, leading to your misunderstanding and anger. However, your dog is too dangerous, and it’s not under official control. We must ensure that it doesn’t harm people.”

“Let me make this clear to you.”

Xu Fan didn’t even consider what the consequences might be and said coldly, “This little dog named Ben Ben is a gift my daughter cherishes the most, and she will be heartbroken if you insist on taking it away.”
