"Is this Fang Lei from the Hunter Association branch?" Upstairs in the Quetang Restaurant, Manager Duan was also shocked by this scene, with deep meaning in his eyes.
In the ancient Liu family mansion, a small courtyard sits quietly.
In the yard, a middle-aged man looked at the corpse on the ground with a gloomy look on his face.
"Who dares to kill my son?" the middle-aged man said angrily.
"It's Fang Lei from the Hunter Association branch!" Five young people said in unison.
…
In the tranquility of the early morning, Chu Chengzhao's voice broke the silence, bringing ominous news.
He said in a serious tone: "Brother Lei, the Liu family has arrived. President Zheng asked you to go to the lobby."
Fang Lei's eyes shone with a deep light, as if he had already foreseen the arrival of this moment.
When he returned from his trip yesterday, he felt that he was being followed and guessed that it was someone from the Liu family.
He knew in his heart that the grudge with the Liu family was inevitable, and the atmosphere in the hall of the Hunter Association branch was tense.
President Zheng Yuan sat at the head, Vice President Wang Zhentian sat on the left, opposite Liu Dachuan, the head of the Liu family, sat expressionlessly, and a middle-aged man in his forties stood quietly behind him.
Fang Lei walked into the hall, his steps steady and firm. After greeting Zheng Yuan, he nodded to Wang Zhentian and the eight instructors.
Zheng Yuan introduced everyone: "This is Liu Dachuan, the head of the Liu family, and behind him is Liu Yong, the steward."
Fang Lei turned his eyes to the two visitors, with a smile on his lips. He seemed calm and unhurried, as if he had everything under control.
Liu Dachuan, the head of the Liu family, squinted his eyes and kept looking at Fang Lei and secretly said: "I have long heard that Fang Lei from the Hunter Association branch is very powerful. When I saw him today, he certainly lived up to his reputation. His son must also be outstanding."
Zheng Yuan asked: "Dear Master Liu, do you have anything to do with Fang Lei?" As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere instantly became tense.
Liu Dachuan's face was gloomy, and he glared at Fang Lei and said, "Fang Lei, you are so brave! Three days ago, you dared to beat my son to death. Should you give my Liu family an explanation for this matter?"
Faced with Liu Dachuan's questioning, Fang Lei was extremely calm and did not show any panic.
"Master Liu, if you came here today to pursue this matter, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
"I firmly believe that you have a comprehensive understanding of the whole matter and are fair and reasonable. The reason why I took action was entirely because your son behaved arrogantly and bullied others."
"As a member of the Hunter Association branch, I must stand up to defend justice." Fang Lei responded in a calm manner, his tone revealing firm belief.
"How presumptuous! How dare you, an insignificant member of the Hunter Association branch, treat me, the head of the Liu family, so rudely? You simply don't care about life and death!" Liu Yong, the housekeeper behind Liu Dachuan, was furious.
Like a tiger descending from a mountain, it pounced on Fang Lei. The ring of six souls behind him shone, and the power of heaven and earth surged.
At this moment, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect Liu Yong to openly attack in the hall of the Hunter Association branch.
What's even more shocking is that he mercilessly used all his strength to show the power of a fifth-grade exploratory warrior. He obviously wanted to kill Fang Lei instantly!
Liu Yong was as fast as lightning and was approaching Fang Lei in an instant. The moment Liu Yong struck out with his palm, Fang Lei barely reacted, his body trembled suddenly, and then he quickly stepped back.
However, he was still injured by Liu Yong's remaining strength, and his body flew out like a kite with a broken string, hitting the wall hard, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Fang Lei's face was as pale as paper and his body was shaky. However, he stubbornly held his own, clenching his fists and eyes flashing with angry flames.
The nails have pierced into the palms, and the blood flows down. His body was shaking slightly, obviously trying to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Boy, how dare you be my enemy!" Liu Yong approached step by step, with a cruel sneer on his lips.
"Today I will let you experience the power of the Liu family!"
However, Liu Yong's attack did not cause the expected damage to Fang Lei, and it seemed that it did not cause substantial damage.
What was surprising was that his eyes were flashing with bloodthirsty killing intent.
Just as Liu Yong attacked Fang Lei again, Zheng Yuan, the president of the Hunter Association branch, decisively stood between them, his voice stern and decisive.
Wang Zhentian did not stand idly by, he instantly released powerful Gang Qi and punched Liu Yong.
At this critical moment, Liu Dachuan, the head of the Liu family, appeared in time and rescued Liu Yong at an alarming speed.
At this moment, everyone was shocked. Liu Dachuan's speed was twice as fast as Wang Zhentian's.
Wang Zhentian walked to Fang Lei and asked with concern: "Nian, brat, are you okay?"
Fang Lei was shocked. He thought silently: "Wang Zhentian's strength is obviously only a second-grade exploration warrior. How did he defeat Liu Yong?"
With doubts, Fang Lei quickly checked Wang Zhentian's strength.
【Name】Wang Zhentian
[Cultivation] Level 6 Exploration Warrior
[Physical fitness] Sixty-seven thousand eight hundred degrees
"It turns out that Wang Zhentian's cultivation strength is a little higher than Liu Yong's." Fang Lei secretly said.
President Zheng Yuan angrily asked Liu Dachuan to explain the matter.
"My son was killed by Fang Lei. It is understandable that Liu Yong attacked Fang Lei as my steward. He never intended to offend the Hunter Association." Liu Dachuan responded calmly,
"As long as you hand over Fang Lei, this matter will be over!"
Zheng Yuan's face darkened, but he was not shaken by Liu Dachuan's words.
Faced with this situation, Fang Lei said firmly: "President Zheng, I will handle this matter myself."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Lei turned around and left, leaving behind a lonely and determined figure. His eyes were full of determination and blood, which was awe-inspiring.
Fang Lei's voice was cold and firm: "Master Liu, I will visit you in half a year to settle the grudges between you and me." His voice echoed in the air, with determination and coldness.
In the quiet air, Liu Dachuan responded to Fang Lei: "Then I will wait for you to come to the door in half a year, and then I will personally take your life."
Fang Lei raised the corner of his mouth and said in an almost mocking tone: "Okay, in half a year, I will let you know whether you have this ability." His words were full of confidence, as if he had everything under control.
Without caring about Zheng Yuan's livid expression, Liu Dachuan led Liu Yong and turned around and left.
Wang Zhentian frowned, worried about Fang Lei's impulsiveness.
"President Zheng, Fang Lei is too impulsive." Wang Zhentian said worriedly.
Zheng Yuan's eyes were filled with complicated emotions. He noticed the bloodthirsty murderous intent pouring out of Fang Lei. It was a strong killing intent that he had never seen before.
In his opinion, only warriors who have experienced countless battles and have blood on their hands can exude such killing intent.
"Now that he has made a decision, we can only choose to believe in him and hope that he can create another miracle." Zheng Yuan held a trace of hope in his heart.
He turned to Wang Zhentian and ordered: "I need to know the entanglement between Fang Lei and the Liu family. You go and find out everything."
Wang Zhentian stepped back in response, but his expression was ugly.
Although Fang Lei defeated Zhao Ming and created a miracle, Zhao Ming was only a fourth-grade exploration warrior and could not be compared with Liu Dachuan, a seventh-grade exploration warrior.
It seemed to him that a second-grade exploration warrior wanted to defeat a seventh-grade exploration warrior in half a year.
Facing the seriously injured Fang Lei, Wang Zhentian held on to his pride and did not allow himself to show vulnerability in front of others.
Fang Lei endured the pain and returned to the room step by step. The moment he entered the room, he coughed violently, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining the ground red.
Chu Chengzhao, who was watching TV in the room, turned pale instantly when he saw this scene.
He immediately put down the remote control in his hand and rushed towards Fang Lei, after placing Fang Lei in place.
He asked worriedly: "Brother Lei, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Fang Lei comforted him: "Cheng Zhao, I was only slightly injured. I just need to cultivate myself and be fine."
Chu Chengzhao was angry about Fang Lei's injury, "Brother Lei, who hurt you? I will avenge you!"
Fang Lei's eyes were sharp as he revealed the murderer's name, "It's Liu Yong, the housekeeper of the Liu family, but the real mastermind is Liu Dachuan, the head of the Liu family. He and I have agreed that there will be a life-or-death duel in half a year."
Afterwards, Fang Lei quietly lay down in the treatment cabin, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
This news was like a pebble thrown into the calm lake of Heyang City, causing ripples.
"Have you heard that Fang Lei, a warrior from the Hunter Association branch, actually launched a life-or-death challenge to Liu Dachuan, the head of the Liu family!"
The curiosity of countless people was aroused, and they discussed it in teahouses and markets.
"That Fang Lei, isn't he only a second-grade exploring warrior? How dare he challenge Liu Dachuan, a seventh-grade exploring warrior?" someone questioned.
"Isn't Fang Lei too arrogant? In Heyang City, Liu Dachuan's strength is well known to everyone. Even young and frivolous warriors understand the difference."
This news has spread in Heyang City and caused countless discussions.
In the hall of the Hunter Association branch, President Zheng Yuan and all the senior officials gathered together.
They all knew the huge impact this news would have on the Hunters Association branch, and some suggested retreating to avoid getting into greater trouble.
But Zheng Yuan shook his head resolutely, "We can't retreat. If we retreat now, what will happen to the Hunter Association branch's face?"
Zheng Yuan took a deep breath and said, "So, we can only choose to believe Fang Lei."
He looked at the senior management present and said, "After in-depth discussions with Wang Zhentian, our Hunter Association branch has decided to fully support Fang Lei in the next six months."
"Mentors, do you have any objections to this?"
After Zheng Yuan's words fell, there was silence in the hall, and the instructors could only smile helplessly.
But the determination in their hearts is even stronger. They will fully support Fang Lei, for the honor of the Hunter Association, and for the persistence in their hearts.
Now that things have developed to this point, they have no choice but to retreat. However, even so, completing this task is almost impossible.
When night fell, Fang Lei was immersed in the bathtub, surrounded by various rare medicinal liquids, all of which were gifts from Chairman Zheng and Zheng Yuan.
The purpose is to help him quickly improve his cultivation level and prepare for the upcoming duel with Liu Dachuan.
As the medicinal liquid seeped in, Fang Lei gradually felt subtle changes in his body. He knew that this was the only way to reach a higher realm.
After practicing all night, the medicinal liquid turned into streams of energy in Fang Lei's body, which was gradually absorbed by the "Tiangang Jin" technique.
When the morning light first appeared and the sun shone through the window screens into the house, he slowly opened his eyes and stood up from the bathtub.
The crisp sound between the bones showed that his body had been stretched to the extreme, and his face was filled with the joy of breakthrough.
Feeling the surging power in his body, he clenched his fists and curled up into a deeper smile.
In order not to disturb Chu Chengzhao, Fang Lei gently opened the door and walked to the gravity room wearing clothes.
In the gravity room, he concentrated on practicing martial arts, and the sound of "Hey ha... Hey ha!" echoed.
One month passed in a blink of an eye. During this period, thanks to the treasures of heaven and earth given by the president of the Hunter Association branch, Fang Lei was promoted from a second-level exploration warrior to a third-level exploration warrior.
It would take ordinary warriors three or four months to break through, but Fang Lei did so in just one month.
"My current level of cultivation as a third-grade exploration warrior is still not enough to deal with Liu Dachuan, a seventh-grade exploration warrior."
"At least I have to break through to the fifth level of exploration warrior, and then have two levels of fighting ability, so that I can almost deal with Liu Dachuan!" Fang Lei muttered to himself.
