The fist was about to make contact with Lin Fan's face, only being a few centimeters away, but Lin Fan still sat there with a calm look on his face.
Qiao Yi Fei slightly knitted her brows when she saw this and was about to move forward to help, but Mao Tao suddenly reached her hand out to stop her.
Mao Tao knew that He Yong wouldn't be able to pose a threat to Lin Fan since He Yong was only barely in the Fragmented Soul Realm. Not to mention that his cultivation had been completely built on the foundation of pills that his father had gotten for him.
With this kind of cultivation, he was actually weaker than most other cultivators that were at the same level.
The only thing that Mao Tao had her doubts about was whether Lin Fan would do anything to He Yong.
Denying his requests might be considered offending the City Lord, but it was only a minor offense. With Lin Fan's status as a hunter, it would have been easy to settle this with the influence of the Hunters Organization.
However, if Lin Fan were to make a move against He Yong, that would be directly offending the City Lord.
Everyone knew that the City Lord wasn't even willing to lay a single finger on He Yong, so if even a single scratch appeared on him, it would be completely offending the City Lord.
Mao Tao just hoped that Lin Fan had moderation and wouldn't hurt He Yong, but there was a part of her deep down that told her that this was impossible.
Lin Fan just calmly watched the fist approaching his face and didn't react at all.
Finally, at the very last second, right before the fist was about to make contact with Lin Fan's face, there was an invisible force that suddenly stopped that fist.
There was a pause of a few seconds that gave He Yong enough time to look at his own fist before there was a powerful force that suddenly sent him flying. This force was one that he couldn't resist at all and it sent him flying right through the air,
As he flew backwards, the door to the store that was closed suddenly opened and he was thrown onto the open space right in front of the door, sliding a few meters before coming to a stop.
Only then did Lin Fan stand up and walk over to stand in the doorway, looking down at He Yong who was lying there on the ground holding his arm.
As for everyone else in the store, they all watched on in shock as Lin Fan walked over to the door.
Not a single person could understand what had just happened, they didn't even feel the fluctuation of life energy as that invisible force appeared in front of Lin Fan to block the blow from He Yong. At the same time, not a single person could believe what Lin Fan had just done.
This was He Yong, the beloved son of the City Lord!
The last person who had even spoken fiercely with him had their entire family destroyed by the full might of the City Lord.
How would the City Lord react now that his son had been beaten like this?
Many of the people outside started to leave because they didn't want to get caught up in this mess, but there were also those people who smelled an opportunity to stay. If they were to help He Yong at this time, it would be a good chance to hug the City Lord's leg.
It took a few seconds for He Yong to react, but the moment that he did, he became screaming.
As a pampered young master, pain was a truly rare experience for him, so it was something that he couldn't take at all.
He Yong continued screaming for a bit, but then he looked down at his arm where the pain was coming from and he began screaming even more.
He Yong roared out in a voice that was filled with panic, "What is this? What just happened? What did that peasant do to me!"
Looking down at his arm, he could see that it was bent in several places and there were even bits of the bone that were sticking out. If one wasn't used to seeing the sight of blood, they definitely would have fainted from seeing this gruesome sight.
The only reason that He Yong didn't faint was because the pain kept him from fainting. In fact, he had fainted twice, but he was quickly woken up by the immense pain that came from his arm again.
After He Yong was sent flying, there were two people that suddenly appeared out of the carriage that he had come in.
It was clear by the aura that the two of them had revealed that they were experts, but the aura that they received also showed just how much the City Lord cared about his son. Both of these experts were experts in the Child Soul Realm.
The City Lord himself was only in the Nascent Soul Realm, so those in the Child Soul Realm could be considered his most trusted subordinates. With that being the case, he had even assigned two of them to guard his son.
One of the two experts, one who was dressed in a traditional Hanfu robe leaned down to look at He Yong's arm with knitted brows before saying, "This…Young master, we have to bring you back immediately to be treated or else you won't be able to use that arm anymore."
After saying this, he leaned in to help He Yong up from the ground, but He Yong waved his good hand as he shouted, "No! I won't go back unless I make this peasant pay first! Destroy his store and cripple him for me, only then can I vent this anger that I have!"
The expert in the Hanfu robe knitted his brows even more, but he still stood up in the end and turned to look at the store before giving a look to the other expert.
The other expert was a person who was wearing a pure white suit with a sword at his waist and seeing this look from the expert in the Hanfu robe, he gave a nod as he headed towards the store with his hand coming to the blade at his waist.
When the people in the store saw this, they wanted to leave, but they couldn't since Lin Fan was blocking the way.
As for Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao, they both knitted their brows.
Their grandparents had told them that Lin Fan was important to the Hunters Organization this morning and now he had offended the City Lord. Would the Hunters Organization support Lin Fan in this?
It would be best if Lin Fan could end this with as little conflict as possible…
Mao Tao came forward and was about to say something to Lin Fan, but the two experts on the other side had already begun moving.
They didn't want to do this, but they knew how much their boss cared about his son, even so much that they might even be punished for not following his orders. Then there was the fact that He Yong had been seriously injured, if they didn't completely destroy the one who had done this to him, they would have to face the City Lord's anger as well.
Since that was the case, there was no reason for them to let this store exist anymore.
They could tell from the aura Lin Fan had that he was only in the Embryo Soul Realm. Since that was the case, this would be an easy matter for the two of them.
Both of them had released their pets that had turned into law energy that surrounded their weapons. The man in the suit drew his sword while the man in the Hanfu robe pulled out a spear.
It only took an instant to appear right in front of the store and both of them attacked with their weapons at Lin Fan who was standing in the doorway.
As a Child Soul Realm Expert herself, Mao Tao could see through the cultivations of these two experts and that was why she was conflicted. It wasn't her place to make a move to protect Lin Fan, but seeing that he wasn't doing a thing, she couldn't help feeling worried.
Right when she was about to make a move, when the weapons of the two experts passed through the threshold of the door, there was an invisible force that had suddenly stopped the path of the two weapons. It was just like the invisible force that had stopped He Yong's punch earlier.
The two experts looked at their weapons that had seemingly stopped in the air with shocked looks.
No matter how much force they used, they were unable to make their weapons go any further to touch Lin Fan.
Then when they were about to make another move, there was a powerful force that suddenly came from in front of them. This force was so strong that they couldn't resist at all as they were thrown straight into the air, flying several meters as well before landing right where He Yong had landed.
Falling to the ground around them were scrap pieces of their own weapons that had been destroyed by that powerful force.
Those two men couldn't help being stunned, but then the pain kicked in.
They both roared out in pain as they looked down at their own arms that had been bent in several different places, just like He Yong's arm from before.
