水蜜桃实验室

The Iron Hand Master’s palms possessed enormous attacking power, ranked among the best in the Strong Body Realm, but due to the great momentum and heavy force of his Iron Sand Palm, every move he made left his back wide open.

For ordinary people, it was very difficult to exploit the opening left by the Iron Hand Master, but for Xu Fan, this was too easy.

He aimed another ruthless kick at the Iron Hand Master’s buttocks.

“Crack!” the Iron Hand Master’s body once again slammed tightly against the smooth floor of Xu Fan’s home.

“Aiyo… my back!” the Iron Hand Master cried out in pain, clutching his lower back.

Xu Fan’s kicks targeted the buttocks, very close to the waist.

There’s a lot of flesh on the buttocks to absorb damage, but the waist is another story. After being hit twice by Xu Fan’s Great Strength Vajra Leg, the Iron Hand Master felt as if his waist was about to break.

Xu Fan placed his foot lightly on the head of the Iron Hand Master, looked down from his lofty position, and kept his gaze firmly on the Iron Hand Master.

“Who sent you here!” Xu Fan asked coldly.

“I, Iron Hand, would rather die than betray my master!” the Iron Hand Master stated stubbornly.

“Good, I like tough guys like you the most. Those two dog paws of yours disgust me, so I’m going to chop them off for you now and feed them to the dogs,” Xu Fan said, before he stood up and headed to the kitchen. In a second, he was back, with a gleaming cleaver in his hand.

Although Xu Fan could sever the Iron Hand Master’s palms with his hands, he felt reluctant to dirty his own, so he took out a cleaver, deciding to throw it into the trash after the deed was done.

“Young Master Xu! I was wrong! Please don’t chop off my hands!” Seeing the cleaver in Xu Fan’s hand glinting with cold light, the Iron Hand Master immediately chickened out. As a martial artist of the Iron Palm Sect who made his mark in the world with his pair of iron palms, losing his hands would mean losing ninety-nine percent of his martial skills. Without them, he wouldn’t even be able to hold a bowl as a beggar.

“If you know you’re wrong, that’s a good boy. Now tell me who sent you? My patience is limited, and this cleaver might just slip,” Xu Fan said with a playful smile on his face, standing over the Iron Hand Master and speaking softly.

“I’ll talk, I’ll talk, Young Master Xu, it was Xu Fangcheng who sent me to find you. He also said to bring both you and the little… uh, the little girl by your side with me!” The Iron Hand Master said to Xu Fan in a hurried tone, extremely agitated, fearful that if he delayed for even a second, his cherished iron palms, which he had had for thirty years, would be chopped off by the cleaver in Xu Fan’s hand.

“Xu Fangcheng!” Xu Fan’s eyes narrowed with a dangerous gleam as he said coldly to the Iron Hand Master, “Why would he be looking for me, and how does he even know I have a little girl with me!”

“It was discovered by the butler Xu Wentao. It seems that because you used the Xu Family’s money, Master Xu Fangcheng wanted to come looking for you!” The Iron Hand Master spilled everything he knew to Xu Fan like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

The Iron Hand Master, being such a person, certainly cared more about his own power. It might feel a little uncomfortable starting out as a traitor, but once one gets used to the role, any feelings of guilt disappear, and so he gushed everything to Xu Fan.

“Haha, I didn’t come looking for you, but you dared to seek me out first. Good, today I’ll start collecting some interest from the Xu Family!” Xu Fan revealed an icy smile and spoke slowly.

“Young Master! You absolutely must not!” Iron Hand spoke to Xu Fan in a panicked tone.

“Why shouldn’t I go? If you can’t give me a good reason, my blade will make its move immediately!” Xu Fan said fiercely.

“Uh, uh, killing Xu Fangcheng would only result in the Xu Family replacing him with another heir. Your endeavor to reclaim your position as the Young Master seems even more unattainable, and besides, the Xu Family has strictly forbidden fratricide—if not for that, Xu Fangcheng wouldn’t have let you live until now!” Iron Hand spoke to Xu Fan with trepidation.

“Oh? You think I want to reclaim the position of the Xu Family’s Young Master?” Xu Fan asked Iron Hand Master, somewhat surprised.

“Of course, our Patron Martial Artists do have a bit more knowledge about the family secrets than the Xu Family’s servants. I’m aware that you were implicated in the great upheaval of the Xu Family through no fault of your own, so naturally you should be the rightful Young Master. Your return to the Xu Family to reclaim your status is only just and proper!” Iron Hand Master rattled off to Xu Fan like a machine gun.

“You actually know about this matter? Then, do you know the hidden details behind the death of my father, Xu Tianlong?” A hint of shock flashed in Xu Fan’s eyes, and he urgently asked Iron Hand Master.

Since Xu Fan’s soul had transmigrated into this body, his consciousness had merged with Xu Fan’s, so whenever he thought of his parents’ tragic fate, his emotions would instantly become agitated.

“Young Master, the matters concerning the former Family Head are truly too secretive. At that time, I was just a Martial Artist at the Strong Body Realm and hadn’t entered the core circles of the Xu Family, so I truly don’t know what happened. Even among the Martial Artists patronized by the Xu Family, no one dares to speak of it, and keeps a deep silence about the incident. I only heard a tiny piece of information from the mouth of a drunken Martial Artist,” Iron Hand Master said, matching Xu Fan’s agitated expression.

“What is that tiny piece of information you know?” Xu Fan asked slowly.

“If I tell you, can it earn me back my two hands?” Iron Hand Master’s eyes flashed shrewdly.

“If you don’t speak now, you’ll die this instant!” Xu Fan immediately radiated an intense murderous aura, scaring Iron Hand Master, who had killed his fair share of people, to nearly wet himself on the spot.

The murderous aura emanating from Xu Fan was not something that could be accumulated by killing just a few people; it was a Destroy Heaven and Earth aura that only ignited after slaughtering countless supreme beings in the vast cosmic starry sky.

Xu Fan’s gaze swept coldly over Iron Hand Master, who quickly trembled and stammered, “I’ll talk, I’ll talk!”

“You need to find someone named Jin Gang Jiu Jun; he was involved in the incident back then. However, he’s exceptionally strong! It’s said that he has already reached the Qi Drawing Realm!” Iron Hand Master said, still frightened.

“Good! Jin Gang Jiu Jun, huh.” Xu Fan silently etched the name into his memory.

“Young Master, that’s all the inside knowledge I have. Please, for being so frank, I beg you to spare me!” Iron Hand Master pleaded pitifully to Xu Fan.

“Heh heh, you’re too useful for me to spare you; that would be a great loss for me,” Xu Fan said as he flashed into his own bedroom and rummaged through a cabinet to retrieve a wrinkled yellow piece of paper.

This was one of the only three items he had brought over from the Cultivation World.
