"I don't think it's because of this matter!" the eldest uncle said directly, "Third brother, why don't you speak? Are you harboring some ulterior motive?"
"To tell you the truth! Mr. Lu is not simple!" the third uncle said, "I fought him when I went to Longdu to meet him this time!"
"He can still fight you?" the second uncle asked in surprise, "I thought this Mr. Lu was ordinary, and didn't seem like a martial artist."
"Not only can he fight me, but I probably can't even last three moves against him," the third uncle said frankly. "Although he looks ordinary, he's hiding his strength. If I hadn't fought him, I wouldn't have known this!"
"Can't even last three moves!" the eldest uncle exclaimed, "If that's true, doesn't that mean he has the skill of a Grandmaster!"
"Most likely he has reached the Grandmaster realm!"
The third uncle concealed nothing, "He is also Mei Li's friend. If he can help the Jiang family, perhaps there's a chance of winning."
"To have Grandmaster strength at such a young age, could he be from some sect!" the eldest uncle said with joy, "If that's the case, my Jiang family is saved!"
"No wonder you were so respectful from the moment you arrived!" the second uncle smiled, "So you had planned all this!"
"You can't say that! Coming to the Jiang family, we are guests. It is only natural for me to treat guests with courtesy!" the third uncle said seriously.
The other two uncles rolled their eyes, seemingly unconvinced, but they still had doubts about what the third uncle said. Lu Fan was too young. To reach Grandmaster at such an age was terrifying.
When night fell, many elders of the Jiang family arrived. The Jiang family head yielded the main seat, preparing to let the uncles sit in the upper seats. However, the uncles exchanged glances and smiled, "Mr. Lu has cured the family head, so he should sit in the upper seat!"
"I am but a junior, how dare I sit in that position." Lu Fan smiled slightly, "Please don't praise me too highly, esteemed seniors! I am truly unworthy."
"If you hadn't intervened, who knows when the family head's illness would have been cured!" the third uncle said, "Mr. Lu has a great kindness towards the Jiang family, and we will remember it forever!"
"Indeed, indeed!" the Jiang family head nodded, "May I ask where Mr. Lu obtained the pills? Since I took the pills, I feel full of vigor, and my condition has greatly improved!"
"I refined them myself!" Lu Fan chuckled.
"So Mr. Lu refined them personally!" the Jiang family head quickly nodded, "May I ask if Mr. Lu can refine such pills? The Jiang family is willing to purchase them in large quantities, and you can name your price!"
"Cough cough..."
Lu Fan coughed a few times, his face showing embarrassment, "To be honest, it is extremely difficult to successfully refine such pills, and it requires many rare and precious treasures. It can be said that one pill is worth ten thousand gold and is hard to find! Bulk purchases are probably not feasible!"
"Hard to find for ten thousand gold?"
The Jiang family head trembled, "No wonder it has such miraculous effects. This pill is actually so expensive! Mr. Lu, you have spent so much, which makes me, Jiang, ashamed!"
"Although it's hard to find for ten thousand gold, for me, it's just a few pills!" Lu Fan waved his hand, "Family Head Jiang, you don't need to be like this."
"Regardless, thank you very much!" Jiang Mei Li said, "You should leave tomorrow! Return to Longdu!"
"Are you trying to kick us out?" Lu Fan smiled, "It seems you don't really want to get married, it's just a delaying tactic."
"Even if it means mutual destruction, I will not marry Old Man Shen," Jiang Mei Li said, "But for the sake of the entire Jiang family, I have no choice but to do so. Mr. Lu, you have ultimately guessed wrong!"
"Mei Li, don't worry! Your father will never let you marry Shen Lao San!" the Jiang family head said repeatedly.
"That's right! How can a member of my Jiang family be easily insulted by others!" the third uncle said, "We will not hesitate even if it means mutual destruction!"
With that, the third uncle looked at Lu Fan again, "Mr. Lu is powerful and not an ordinary person. If you can help my Jiang family in three days, my Jiang family will be eternally grateful!"
"Third Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about? This is the Jiang family's business, and it has nothing to do with them!" Jiang Mei Li said sternly, "Moreover, they are just ordinary people, how can they deal with the Shen family!"
"It seems the eldest daughter doesn't know that Mr. Lu's methods are heavenly, and he is not an ordinary person!" the third uncle said, "Otherwise, why would he dare to disrespect a Grandmaster today." Su Dan Novel Network
With these words, everyone turned their gaze to Lu Fan, filled with curiosity, especially Jiang Mei Li. She had always believed Lu Fan to be an ordinary person, but the third uncle would never lie to her.
"So Mr. Lu is also a martial artist!" Jiang Mei Li said, "Why can't I sense it?"
"How can a Grandmaster be easily sensed by you!" the third uncle said frankly, "You are still too naive!"
"Grandmaster?"
Jiang Mei Li's expression changed instantly, and she looked at Lu Fan, "Are you really a Grandmaster?"
"I am not a Grandmaster!" Lu Fan waved his hand, "Everyone, please don't guess wildly!"
Seeing Lu Fan deny it, the third uncle was slightly surprised, and the other uncles also looked astonished. They had already concluded that Lu Fan was a Grandmaster. If Lu Fan was not a Grandmaster, he might not be able to help the Jiang family.
"I knew it, how could he be a Grandmaster!" Jiang Mei Li rolled her eyes, "If he were truly a Grandmaster, I suppose I would be a Great Master!"
"Don't be rude!" the Jiang family head said, "Regardless of Mr. Lu's strength, he is a distinguished guest of my Jiang family."
"Mr. Lu, I'll toast you!"
The Jiang family head stood up, raising his wine glass, his eyes filled with solemnity. The uncles also raised their glasses, not daring to be negligent.
Although Lu Fan had denied it, the fact that Lu Fan had cured the family head's illness was enough for the entire Jiang family to accompany him.
When night fell, after everyone had enjoyed their drinks, Lu Fan and Lin Ke arrived in their room, with the aroma of wine lingering.
"Xiao Fan, Mei Li is my best friend!" Lin Ke said, "I don't want anything to happen to her, and I especially don't want her to marry that old man!"
"Don't worry!" Lu Fan smiled, "She is your best friend, so how could I let her walk into a sea of fire! On the day the Shen family proposes, I will send them packing!"
"Thank you!" Lin Ke nodded sincerely, "Thank you, Lu Fan Ge!"
"When did you become so polite?" Lu Fan glanced at her, "Aren't you going to call me husband!"
"Husband..."
Lin Ke smiled awkwardly, and then threw herself into Lu Fan's embrace.
Meanwhile, in the Jiang family courtyard, the eldest uncle looked at the third uncle, "I say, third brother, did you make a mistake? He himself admitted that he is not a Grandmaster!"
"I don't know about that either!" the third uncle shook his head, "But his strength is mysterious and unfathomable, I can be sure of that. I would definitely be defeated within three moves. How could he not be a Grandmaster!"
