Chapter 57

Instantly, the entire venue's attention focused on this spot.

"You're crazy? Sit down quickly!" Xiao Wang whispered fiercely.

Can't you see what kind of occasion this is? So many big shots from Jiangbei didn't dare to speak up, yet you, Chen Fan, stand up, which is equivalent to walking to your death?

Given Lin Hu's character, who can casually kill people like a god or demon, if Chen Fan provokes him, he won't mind killing one more. It's possible that even we few might be implicated.

Thinking of this, Xiao Wang's eyes were filled with a desire to tear Chen Fan into minced meat on the spot!

Yang Li and others also turned pale, hesitating whether to pull Chen Fan back when Lin Hu's gaze indeed looked over.

Under the gaze that could kill without blinking, Xiao Wang and the others felt as if they were pierced through by extreme cold, not daring to move even a little finger. They only wanted to run as far as possible, to get away from Chen Fan, this harbinger of disaster, and desperately clear their relationship with him.

In an instant, the people around Chen Fan scattered.

Especially Zhang from the provincial kickboxing team, who ran the fastest.

His courage had been shattered when Song Tao made his move, and Lin Hu's appearance completely crushed all his fantasies. At this moment, he had no confidence left as a boxing expert.

Chen Fan stood alone in the center, bearing the gaze of the entire venue.

Only Ah Xiu remained by his side. Although the little girl had been forced by life, her heart was ultimately pure and kind.

At this moment, Ah Xiu tugged at his sleeve, pleading, "Big Brother Chen, sit down quickly, the person on the stage will kill people."

"It's fine, I'm not afraid of him," Chen Fan turned and smiled at her.

Then he patted Ah Xiu's head and said,

"Since you call me Big Brother Chen, I'll make you a promise. I'll give you a chance in the future, but I don't know if you can seize it."

After saying this, he peeled away Ah Xiu's slender fingers and walked towards the stage with his hands behind his back.

Ah Xiu was left standing there, her mind full of Chen Fan's last gentle smile.

For some reason, she felt a hint of regret and an urge to cry.

As Chen Fan walked forward, the crowd in front of him scattered like a tide.

Everyone looked at him as if he were a madman. Some well-meaning people even whispered to remind him,

"Little guy, they're calling Master Chen, not you. Stop quickly."

In everyone's impression, those called 'Master' were usually old men over forty or fifty, like Master Wu. Chen Fan, at sixteen or seventeen, couldn't possibly be Master Chen.

Chen Fan just smiled at them and continued walking.

He came to the base of the stage, looking up at the two-meter-high platform. The experts who had previously gone up had leaped or at most used their hands for support, but Chen Fan walked up the steps, one by one, slowly ascending.

Xu Ao had felt Chen Fan was somewhat familiar from the first glance. When he got closer and recognized him, his heart was filled with urgency.

No matter what, this was the boy his daughter liked. Although he was dissatisfied with the youth's arrogant character, he couldn't just watch him go to his death. Lin Hu, known as the 'Alaska Tiger' overseas, had earned his reputation through a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Even if he recognized the wrong person, he wouldn't show mercy.

"What are you doing here? Get back quickly!"

Xu Ao, disregarding his status as a leader, urgently whispered.

Chen Fan, with an innocent look, said, "Since he called me, I naturally have to come."

Xu Ao really wanted to slap him to wake him up, saying with a mix of frustration and anger, "They're calling Master Chen, not you!"

Do you think anyone surnamed Chen is a master?

Just like many others, Xu Ao thought that even if Master Chen was young, he must be at least thirty. How could a sixteen or seventeen-year-old student be a master?

Chen Fan blinked and said, "I am Master Chen."

Xu Ao was so angry that he felt like he was playing a lute to a block of wood, unable to get through to him.

At this moment, Old Gu had already gotten up from the stage, though he was still panting. Seeing Chen Fan come up, his eyes widened, and he shouted, "With your three-foot cat skills, you're not even a match for me, yet you dare to come here to die?"

"Go back quickly! Lord Hu won't bother with you."

As he spoke, he desperately winked at Chen Fan.

Lin Hu stood to the side, arms crossed, frowning at this young man.

With his extensive experience and superior insight, he naturally saw that this young man had no martial arts foundation at all.

Not to mention killing Lin Bao, he couldn't even beat a random strong man. Moreover, high-level masters usually needed time to build their skills, and they were much older than martial artists of the same level.

Even though Xing Zhong had said that Master Chen was relatively young, Lin Hu thought this youth was relatively young compared to the sixty or seventy-year-old Master Wu, so a forty or fifty-year-old could still be considered young.

"But since this boy dares to step onto the stage, he must be prepared to die. I'll use him to set an example, to show Jiangbei my power!"

Thinking of this, Lin Hu's gaze darkened.

The other big shots on the high platform looked at Chen Fan, both admiring and shaking their heads.

They admired that this young man dared to face Lin Hu's sharp edge. But they shook their heads, thinking he was too young and didn't know that a true man can bend and stretch. They, the big shots of Jiangbei, had all obediently bowed their heads, waiting for a chance to retaliate in the future. Why did this boy need to show off his strength?

The Lu family woman whispered,

"Fourth Uncle, can you save him? We can't let an ordinary young man be killed right under our noses."

Fourth Uncle shook his head helplessly,

"There's no way to save him. Lin Hu has already decided to kill! He needs to use bloody means to subdue the people of Jiangbei. Anyone who steps forward will be dead."

The Lu family woman fell silent, only sighing inwardly.

She had thought she had everything under control, using the Lu family's influence to easily take over Jiangbei. But the appearance of the formidable Lin Hu completely颠覆ed her plans.

Especially, the power behind Lin Hu was no less than the Lu family, and perhaps even greater!

"I underestimated the heroes of the world," the Lu family woman regretted inwardly.

Some of the more sinister-minded spectators in the audience were already thinking,

'This boy must be missing a few screws. If he wants to show off, let him die.'

Only Ah Xiu was truly crying, feeling more and more that she had been wrong in the past. Now that Chen Fan was going to die heroically, she might never have the chance to make amends, and her heart was filled with regret.

At this moment, Lin Hu, arms crossed, said calmly,

"I'm looking for Master Chen, not some random person. Of course, if you want to fight me, I won't hold back."

Facing this martial arts expert who had come across the water, killed Song Tao with one punch, and defeated Old Gu in seven moves, Chen Fan showed no fear. Instead, he touched his nose and said,

"If you mean the Master Chen who defeated your brother, that should be me."

His words shocked the entire venue!

"What? Did I hear wrong? He said he is 'Master Chen'?" The people in the audience almost popped their eyes out.

The big shots of Jiangbei were also greatly surprised, some even jumping out of their seats.

"Is it true?"

Lin Hu was also stunned.

At this moment, Chen Fan said, "Your brother Lin Bao's martial arts were really mediocre, just a few basic moves. I only used one move to scare him into fleeing, and I had to use another move to finish him off."

Ignoring Lin Hu's increasingly dark gaze, Chen Fan continued as if no one else was there,

"Actually, I thought your teacher, Lei Qianjue, would come this time, so I even prepared a few special moves for him. I didn't expect it to be you."

"Never mind, although your martial arts are slightly inferior to Lei Qianjue, you still have some unique qualities. That technique of walking on water is something I've never thought of."

He had been thinking about the technique of walking on water, which is why his reaction was slow, and he only stood up a few minutes later.

This technique initially made Chen Fan's eyes light up, but once he understood it, it was worthless, just a method of using internal strength. It's like a Nobel Prize winner seeing a primary school student solve an Olympiad math problem. Occasionally, a solution might be very creative, but after a few more looks, it's nothing special.

At this moment, Zhou Tianhao finally reacted, jumping up from his chair, excitedly saying,

"Master Chen, you've finally come!"

"Master, you must teach this Lin Hu a lesson, to show him that Jiangbei is not to be trifled with."

The entire venue was stunned.

Only now did the people勉强 accept the reality that this young man who looked like a student was indeed the 'Master Chen' with supernatural abilities.

It was he who had killed Lin Hu's brother, Lin Bao, and brought this martial arts expert across the sea.

Xu Ao, despite decades of cultivation, was also stunned.

"Chen... Chen Fan is actually Master Chen? How is this possible?"

He remembered the information he had checked on Chen Fan, who was only slightly stronger than an ordinary person, with no other special qualities. How could he suddenly transform into the famous 'Master Chen' of Chuzhou, known for his ability to control lightning?

Lin Hu was so terrifying, and his brother was likely not much weaker. What kind of existence must Master Chen be to have killed Lin Bao?

Yang Li and others were dumbfounded, unable to speak, only staring at Chen Fan. Only Ah Xiu suddenly realized,

"No wonder Zhang, the deputy mayor, and others kept calling him Master Chen. I thought it was a special way of addressing people in Chuzhou!"

"I didn't expect you to really be Master Chen!"

Looking at the young man on the stage, talking and laughing with Lin Hu, Ah Xiu suddenly realized that she had been wrong from the beginning.

"It really is you!"

Lin Hu lowered his head, muttering to himself. His voice grew louder, finally echoing throughout the venue.

"I don't care if you're Master Chen or Master Bei."

"You killed my brother and disgraced my school. Today, I'll use your blood to honor my brother's spirit."

Saying this, he stomped his foot, his body rising three feet. White mist seemed to flow around him, about to burst out. His hands moved in the air like playing a lute, each finger snap producing a sharp sound. Although he was a burly man, his fingers were as gentle as those of a southern beauty, brushing through the air, making the white mist form threads.

These threads pierced through space, as if they could cut through steel. If they wrapped around a person, the human body would surely be torn apart.

Fourth Uncle, despite the shock of Chen Fan's identity, had a grave expression:

"External release of internal strength! Gathering qi into threads! This is the secret technique of the Hongmen Grandmaster Lei Qianjue."

"Thousand Mechanisms!"

Chen Fan also made a light "ah" sound, smiling,

"You can release internal strength externally with just a full internal strength, relying on this secret technique, right?"

"Never mind, let me show you what true martial arts are!" Chen Fan's hands slightly lifted, gripping the air. His aura suddenly changed, as if he could hold the entire world.

"True Martial Arts Thirty-Six Forms!"

"First Form, Heaven-Embracing Hammer!"
