Seeing that Chen Tianlong was about to fight for her, Lin Wushuang hurriedly ran to Chen Tianlong's side, clearly a bit nervous.

"Chen Tianlong, maybe let it go; it's not good to blow this matter up." Lin Wushuang looked at the person, who clearly came with bad intent, as if specifically looking for trouble.

Lin Wushuang wasn't stupid. This person showed up inexplicably, and dared to make a move even with Chen Tianlong present. There were only two reasons for this.

Either he was an idiot, or it was deliberate.

Judging by his behavior, he's not an idiot. That leaves the latter: it's deliberate.

"Wushuang, just watch from the side. This person clearly wants to provoke us. Even if we don't escalate, he will!" Chen Tianlong didn't elaborate much, since Lin Wushuang didn't know the Fang Family's background.

Lin Wushuang nodded in agreement with Chen Tianlong's words, believing that they wouldn't give up easily. Thus, she said, "Then be careful."

Chen Tianlong nodded and began to cautiously watch Fang Kun ahead.

"Old man, don't think I don't know you're from the Fang Family. As for Young Master Fang's issue, he started it, and I don't want to pursue it. If you insist on causing trouble, I'll accompany you." Chen Tianlong spoke directly, trying to clear things up before the fight.

"Heh, do you think this is all you'll face in Ice City? Too naive. If it were just to teach you a lesson, would I even need to get involved?"

Fang Kun found it laughable that Chen Tianlong didn't realize their purpose here.

Chen Tianlong frowned. It seemed their goal wasn't merely to teach him a lesson but something else. Nevertheless, their disrespect towards the Miss alone was enough to lay them down.

"Then there's nothing to discuss."

Chen Tianlong said, and directly punched.

"Boom!"

The two quickly separated, Fang Kun's eyebrows furrowed. Although it was a test, he employed the strength of Yellow Dao's first star, but it didn't cause any harm to the kid, which was baffling.

"Are you an Ancient Martial Cultivator?"

Fang Kun voiced his doubt.

"Haven't you already figured it out?" Chen Tianlong replied with a cold smile.

Previously, Fang Kun used the power of an ancient martial cultivator's Yellow Dao first star. If Chen Tianlong wasn't a cultivator, how could he be unscathed?

"Hmph, don't get cocky, kid. Don't think that being a cultivator makes you untouchable; there's no one in South City that's untouchable by me."

After arrogantly speaking, Fang Kun immediately started utilizing the Heart Method.

At this point, everyone in the restaurant began to hide aside, fearing for their safety.

And the restaurant just had one security guard at the door. When he was glanced at by Fang Kun's sharp gaze, he was too frightened to speak, so he called the police.

"Uncle, quick and decisive!"

Fang Xiaoli spoke out, according to their previous plan, they had to deal with Chen Tianlong within ten minutes and leave swiftly.

At least if Chen Tianlong didn't die, they wouldn't face any consequences and could safely leave South City.

Called out by Fang Xiaoli, Fang Kun immediately understood, took a deep breath, intending to disable Chen Tianlong within three moves.

"Die!"

Fang Kun exerted all his strength, charging at Chen Tianlong like a tiger.

Chen Tianlong was already prepared, his right foot stepped out slightly. This time, he didn't attack but waited quietly for his opponent's arrival.

However, Chen Tianlong frowned the next moment when he noticed Fang Kun holding something – a silver metal ring.

"Not good!"

Chen Tianlong shouted internally. Though that steel ring looked ordinary, it concealed unpredictable energy.

Indeed, this was the Fang Family's artifact. Elder Fang Wuji, having heard of a young man who could absorb Bing Ruxue's cold poison, instantly recalled a cultivation technique capable of absorbing inner strength. Therefore, before Fang Kun left, he brought this artifact.

This artifact wasn't for augmenting power but preventing inner strength from leaking out, the Vajra Hand Guard.

"Boom!"

A huge sound burst out as they separated again. This time, Chen Tianlong retreated four to five steps, while Fang Kun remained unmoving.

"Yellow Dao four stars!"

Chen Tianlong finally recognized him as a skilled fighter, and realized that the item on his hand could indeed counteract the absorption of his Reversed Force Heart Method.

Could it be that his heart method was so ineffective? That a mere guard could break it?

In truth, Chen Tianlong's heart method wasn't called Reversed Force, but Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique.

The Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique has four levels: Reverse Force, Breaking Force, Controlled Force, Condensing Force.

Reverse Force means absorbing an opponent's Powerful Qi into one's body, for one's use. Currently, Chen Tianlong hasn't undergone Bone Marrow Cleansing and can't freely utilize it.

Breaking Force is used when opponents prevent the absorption of qi. It enhances the technique with indestructible Inner Strength, putting the opponent in a zero-defense state.

The other two levels remain mysterious.

"Ugh!"

After retreating, Chen Tianlong spat out some sour liquid, having been hit by Fang Kun's powerful qi earlier, leaving his energy somewhat turbulent.

At this moment, Fang Xiaoli, sitting calmly behind everyone, began to stand up. Watching the scene, his mouth curved slightly upwards as he walked over.

Seeing Chen Tianlong retreat after being hit, Lin Wushuang hurried to support him.

"Chen Tianlong, are you okay? Maybe we should leave." Lin Wushuang was worried, feeling the opponent was too strong.

"I'm fine, just wait."

Chen Tianlong took a deep breath, flexed his neck, and stood forward again.

Fang Kun clearly didn't stop, quickly approached, and suddenly kicked in the air. But that move gave Chen Tianlong a breakthrough opportunity.

Chen Tianlong forcefully pushed off the ground, leaping into the air, and then rotated, kicking out. Seeing this, Fang Kun quickly dodged, planning to counter after Chen Tianlong's move.

But he was dumbfounded the next moment.

Chen Tianlong didn't stop after the 360-degree kick, continuing to spin and lightning-quickly kicking out.

"Impossible! Tang Family's Twelve Leg Kicks?"

Fang Kun was kicked flying, surprised, realizing it was clearly the Tang Family's Twelve Leg Kicks: Rotating Double Kick. Was Chen Tianlong from the Tang Family?

Upon hitting the ground, Fang Kun endured the pain and stood up, glaring at Chen Tianlong, coldly smiling, "Nice, but watch out next."

Chen Tianlong frowned, wondering what he meant, acting superior even after being knocked down and still so arrogant.

At this moment, Fang Kun closed his eyes briefly, shortly adjusted himself, then clenched his fists. Chen Tianlong instantly felt a powerful qi wave.

At once, Fang Kun suddenly opened his eyes, charging like Bao, his right arm bulging with veins; it was intimidating.

Chen Tianlong wished dearly for his arm pain to return, indicating he could use the unrivaled punch again. Sadly, the arm felt normal, likely because all absorbed qi had exploded earlier.

Nevertheless, Chen Tianlong didn't give up, using the heart method anyway. Even if the Reversed Force couldn't break his guard, it could enable him to remain in a Qi-protected state.

"Boom!"
