"Lu Fan brother! You are too amazing! Not only is your medical skill so powerful, but your voice also made these martial arts big shots dare not make a sound!" Jiang Chao followed behind Lu Fan, filled with genuine admiration. Those who mixed in the underworld, weren't they all people who had gone through bloody storms, people who had climbed from the tip of a knife? Yet, Lu Fan's single shout had stunned them all.
"Brother Jiang! To snatch a piece of cake from these people, you're also doing very well. I can also see that these people are not to be trifled with," Lu Fan said with a faint smile.
"Hahaha! To be honest, because of my intervention, the situation in the provincial capital has changed. The other few people are all unwilling. In the end, Boss Hong spoke up for me, and only then was a fight avoided, and I got a share.
Boss Hong has the largest territory and the strongest power. The others are somewhat wary of him. However, a day ago, Boss Hong was suddenly ambushed by masked men and was seriously injured. Boss Hong helped me, so naturally, I have to repay his kindness," Jiang Chao said.
"Those four people are not good people, you need to be careful too. I have some emergency medicine here, take it. It might save your brothers' lives when they're in trouble," Lu Fan handed a small bottle of pills to Jiang Chao.
"Thank you, little brother! How can one mix in the martial world without bleeding? This is a good thing!" Jiang Chao was overjoyed and quickly took the small medicine bottle.
Lu Fan left the hospital and immediately drove back. Halfway back, he received a call from Jiang Chao saying that Boss Hong wanted to treat Lu Fan to a meal to express his gratitude. Lu Fan made an excuse that he would call again after Boss Hong had fully recovered, and then hung up. He didn't want to get involved in underworld affairs and left it all to Jiang Chao to handle. Jiang Chao was a smart person, and Lu Fan believed he could establish himself in the provincial capital.
It was close to evening when he returned to Twelve Dao Gou Village. Wang Yan, Taohua, and Xiao Hu were also at home having dinner.
When Lu Fan was not home, Zhao Rongrong didn't mind the two young widows eating there. They came to eat and chat, which created a lively atmosphere. Moreover, they were not short of money now and could buy whatever they wanted to eat without hesitation.
"Xiao Fan is back! Come sit, I'll serve you rice!" Seeing Lu Fan return, Taohua immediately went to get bowls and chopsticks, served a bowl of rice, and placed it next to her seat.
Lu Fan washed his hands and came to sit down. Wang Yan's eyes darted around as she got up, took two wine glasses, and then sat down on Lu Fan's other side. This made Taohua roll her eyes, inwardly cursing how shameless this woman was!
"Xiao Fan! Has the hotel in the capital opened yet? Congratulations, you can earn more money from now on! I'll toast you!" Wang Yan poured a glass of wine for Lu Fan and said.
"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Lu Fan took the wine glass. He clinked it with Wang Yan's and drank it in one gulp.
Wang Yan glanced triumphantly at Taohua and then also downed her glass in one gulp.
Taohua rolled her eyes. She should have made Lu Fan sit between her and Xiao Hu. This prodigal woman was trying to snatch her man! Hmph!
"Xiao Fan! You opened a restaurant in the capital? Why didn't you tell us about such a big thing?" Zhao Rongrong asked with some surprise. She didn't know about this matter, but Wang Yan did. What was the meaning of this?
"Xiao Fan! You... you are too amazing! You've opened a restaurant in the capital! I... I'll toast you too! Uncle, Aunt, let's all have a drink together," Taohua immediately said from the side.
"Dad! Mom! The restaurant in the capital was opened by me and Brother Yan. I just showed up, and I didn't participate in anything. So I didn't tell you. Sister-in-law Wang Yan is responsible for the supply from various places, so she naturally knows about all the major and minor matters first, which is convenient for coordinating production," Lu Fan quickly explained.
"Sister-in-law, Uncle! Xiao Fan is responsible for making money, and you will be responsible for enjoying your lives at home. When the villa is built, you will move into the villa and need to hire some servants to clean the house and tidy up the yard. Then you will be responsible for supervising these people at work. Scold anyone who doesn't work!" Taohua suddenly said from the side.
"Tsk! We're not Zhou Bapi!" Zhao Rongrong rolled her eyes. But she thought that if they hired so many people, it would probably cost a lot of money! She felt a pang of heartache.
Taohua stuck out her tongue, having patted the horse on the wrong hoof.
"Xiao Fan! We are all at ease with whatever you do outside. My son must be capable!" Lu Changfu said from the side. Being able to open a restaurant in the capital was enough for him to brag about in the village for a lifetime!
"Let's drink! Dad, Mom, Sister Taohua, Sister Wang Yan, Xiao Hu... alright, you can be excused, let's drink!" Lu Fan raised his wine glass and said.
"Let's drink!"
"Let's drink!"
They all happily started drinking.
After dinner, Lu Fan returned to his room. Taohua and Wang Yan helped Zhao Rongrong clear the dishes, and then they were sent away by Zhao Rongrong. As they walked out of the courtyard, Taohua still rolled her eyes at Wang Yan, snorted through her nose, and walked away holding Xiao Hu's hand.
Wang Yan pouted, her eyes darted around, and she took a detour from the village entrance to the back mountain.
Lu Fan sat cross-legged in his room for a while. Seeing the night darkening, he quietly got up and walked towards the back mountain.
"Xiao Fan!" Wang Yan flashed out from behind a large tree and suddenly clung to Lu Fan.
"Sister-in-law Wang Yan... no!"
Before Lu Fan could finish speaking, Wang Yan had already covered his mouth.
...
In the cave of Luoyan Sect, Lu Fan sat cross-legged. The Spirit Gathering Bottle was placed beside him. Streams of spiritual energy formed currents in the cave, swirling between Lu Fan and the Spirit Gathering Bottle.
Bang... With a muffled sound, Lu Fan felt his entire dantian explode. The entire cave was instantly filled with spiritual energy.
Hoo... Following that, all the spiritual energy surged towards Lu Fan's body like a rolling flood from all directions. Lu Fan's body was like a hungry monster. In just a quarter of an hour, all the spiritual energy was devoured. He still felt hungry, so Lu Fan suddenly grabbed the Spirit Gathering Bottle beside him and gulped it down.
Hoo... Lu Fan could feel that his dantian was like a great river, with surging spiritual energy forming a vortex and converging towards the golden primordial spirit suspended in the center, compressing it. The golden luster on the primordial spirit became brighter and more solid.
Transformation Realm! Is this the Transformation Realm of the Shen Nong Health Cultivation Technique?! Lu Fan was shocked. This was vastly different from the silent breakthrough to the Transformation Realm achieved by the Breath Concealment Art!
