Lei Laohu's attack was still quite ferocious, Qin Fang slightly shifted his body to the side, dodging that fierce palm, and at the same time he hastily retreated, his extreme Agility making his movement as swift as the wind. Lei Laohu's truly lethal left fist suddenly came up short, and such a threatening attack was easily neutralized by Qin Fang as if it were nothing.

However, Lei Laohu was clearly not going to be annoyed by this. Despite his large body, which seemed to imply sluggishness, he was actually nothing of the sort. He quickly twisted his body using the momentum from his charge, sticking to Qin Fang like a plaster, attacking from another angle.

Furthermore, the movements of his body, the shifting steps, and so on, were all very methodical, and his routine was incredibly pure. It seemed that even from his first move, he had already predicted Qin Fang's every subsequent reaction.

Qin Fang was not in a hurry either. He moved slightly, like a leaf in the wind, wherever Lei Laohu's palm wind swung, his body followed with a brushing motion, narrowly dodging every one of Lei Laohu's attacks...

Yet this process was quite nerve-wracking to watch. Observing Lei Laohu's stormy and aggressive offense, Qin Fang looked like a small boat in the midst of a tempest, seemingly on the brink of capsizing at any moment.

"Brother Hu, keep it up!"

"Brother Hu, mighty!"

"Brother Hu, invincible..."

As the saying goes, the expert watches the flow while the layman enjoys the show.

The lackeys that Lei Laohu brought along were nonstop in cheering him on. They were merely ordinary thugs, with only a few who had half-heartedly practiced a couple of moves, almost negligible in skill. They naturally couldn't see the intricacies of the fight and could only judge by the momentum, where Lei Laohu's ferocious attacks seemed to leave Qin Fang with no power to counterattack, as if he could be killed by Lei Laohu's hands at any moment, so naturally they thought Lei Laohu had the absolute upper hand.

But for the real experts, it was completely different; even a half-knowing observer could spot some issues, like Ning Yumo.

"Qingqing, this Fist Technique seems..."

Never mind Qin Fang, even Ning Yumo, who was just a spectator, felt something was amiss with Lei Laohu's Fist Technique. She wasn't part of the Martial World, though she had Level 3 Strength, which came from learning military combat techniques or police sanda skills, so she didn't quite understand the issue with this type of Fist Technique and could only ask Cai Qing beside her.

"This is the Lei Family Bear Fist, Lei Laohu must be from the Lei Family..."

Cai Qing wouldn't warn Qin Fang, but she didn't have any reservations with Ning Yumo and immediately gave a simple explanation. Although she had never seen Lei Laohu before, the Fist Technique gave it away the moment he threw a punch.

Capital City is Lei Family's turf, using Bear Fist here would surely mean the man is from the Lei Family; otherwise, it's nothing but a death wish. Martial Arts Clans take their Martial Arts very seriously, and if it's not meant to be shared, it absolutely won't be shared; otherwise, it would be difficult to pass on from generation to generation...

Besides, Lei Laohu had already stated his name, whether it's his real name or a nickname, there was definitely a significant connection to the Lei Family, perhaps he was even a direct descendant of the Lei Family.

At least... Lei Laohu's Fist Technique was quite good, and his strength was formidable, and even Cai Qing herself was pondering whether she could contend with Lei Laohu in combat.

And the answer was clearly no. She might have formidable strength, but she had one fatal flaw: she couldn't cultivate Inner Breath, which meant that despite mastering all the moves and secrets of Xingyi Fist and Cannon Fist, she still wouldn't be able to fight against a same-level Inner Sect Expert...

"A member of the Lei Family?"

Ning Yumo was taken aback upon hearing this, her face suddenly showing alarm; clearly, she hadn't anticipated this.

Although with Ning Yumo's help, Cai Qing had persuaded Qin Fang to substitute for her in a challenge, possibly even having to fight a master from the Lei Family, she didn't expect to encounter someone from the Lei Family so soon after agreeing; the coincidence was just too much.

If she hadn't known that these people were most likely sent by that Qi Shao from before, Ning Yumo would have suspected that Cai Qing and the Lei Family had colluded to deal with Qin Fang.

Of course, that was unlikely. Cai Qing, although resentful of Qin Fang, wouldn't be joking with her own wedding matter, which would certainly result in a complete loss without gaining anything, losing both her fiance and her troops.

"Qin Fang, be careful, he's from the Lei Family..."

No matter the reason, now that she knew Lei Laohu was from the Lei Family, Ning Yumo didn't hesitate to immediately warn Qin Fang.

"Thank you for the reminder, Sister Ning..."

In fact, even without Ning Yumo's warning, Qin Fang had already guessed Lei Laohu's identity, but feeling Ning Yumo's concern for him, Qin Fang naturally wouldn't act as if nothing had happened.

"Sigh, they say girls are outgoing, but you, oh you..."

Cai Qing muttered enviously, her teeth clenching with secret resentment toward Qin Fang.

"You still dare to rush forward to help? Qin Fang is at a disadvantage like this, ah..."

Ning Yumo, too, was frantic with concern upon seeing Qin Fang's willow-in-the-wind stance, which seemed on the verge of collapse at any moment. Even if she wasn't too worried at the start, the more the fight dragged on, the clearer the situation became, and it truly made her anxious.

Being an intelligent woman, she knew that jumping in to help would only complicate matters or even become a burden to Qin Fang, so she could only let Cai Qing make a move.

At least she knew one thing, that Cai Qing's strength seemed to be no less than Qin Fang's... Although that was a long time ago, and now Cai Qing was no longer willing to cross hands with Qin Fang. After the event at the Wu Family, she was no longer his match.

"I certainly won't help..."

Cai Qing immediately shook her head and refused, "Don't worry. Although Qin Fang seems to be at a disadvantage, Lei Laohu himself isn't faring much better either. Martial artists value a swift and vigorous strike, peaking on the first attempt, then declining, and exhausting by the third... Lei Laohu only has three moves; once he uses them up, the show's over."

"Are you serious?"

Ning Yumo was slightly startled, looking at Cai Qing uncertainly, not sure if she was telling the truth or not, since Cai Qing held so much hatred for Qin Fang, she might betray him at any moment.

"Relax, would I lie to you?"

Cai Qing reached out to grab Ning Yumo's somewhat cold hand, comforting her, "Besides, in a couple of days, he has to accompany me on a visit to the Lei Family, and most likely we'll have to fight then. Rather than being unprepared and struggling to cope at that time, it's better to test Qin Fang's abilities against Lei Laohu now..."

As she said this, Cai Qing watched the situation in the field, and the more she observed, the more convinced she became that Qin Fang was doing exactly what she had described, testing moves against Lei Laohu!

Lei Family Bear Fist is an extremely fierce fist technique, most moves distilled from imitating the actions of a raging bear, but with slight differences. After all, it's not bears but humans who execute this fist technique.

In this world, there's no such thing as a perfect martial art; every martial art has certain flaws and weaknesses, even the centuries-old Xingyi Fist.

The Lei Family Bear Fist was no exception; it had weaknesses too. For instance, its movements seemed a bit clumsy, making them much easier to decipher for a more agile expert.

Moreover, the same martial art performed by different individuals would yield entirely different results. For example, Qin Fang resoundingly defeated Su Yang, whose Eight Extremes Fist was quite advanced, but Qin Fang could rely on his superior strength and resilient physique, along with ample baozi support, to forcefully match Su Yang blow for blow.

However, Elder Niu, also a practitioner of Eight Extremes Fist and a grandmaster-level expert, would have a completely different result; the same moves executed by him could easily overpower Qin Fang without giving him any chance, unlike the relatively easy fight against Su Yang.

Without a doubt, Lei Laohu was a member of the Lei Family, with quite formidable strength. At least, after exchanging dozens of moves with him, Qin Fang could guess that Lei Laohu was probably one of the distinguished figures among the younger generation of the Lei Family.

Why? Because Lei Laohu's strength before deploying his killer moves was almost the same as Su Yang's, unless the Southern Martial Arts World was truly much weaker than the Northern Martial Arts World; otherwise, such strength was definitely formidable.

"Kid, if you don't show your true skills, I'm going to use my killer moves..."

Qin Fang appeared to be at a disadvantage, but his responses were appropriate, and his actions were measured—never giving Lei Laohu any chance with each exchange, his composure making it seem like he was not truly losing ground.

"I'm getting a bit impatient as well, come on..."

Even ordinary moves of Bear Fist were already impressively powerful, and Qin Fang dared not allow Lei Laohu to land a hit easily, let alone his killer moves, which were undoubtedly the most terrifying.

For instance, Tiger Fist's Tiger's Rush, Eight Extremes Fist's Tie Shan Kao, and so on—if hit, the adversary could be killed with a single blow...

Qin Fang shed the lax aura around him, tensing up his entire body and attuning to his optimal state, his eyes intently fixed on his opponent's, not allowing for any carelessness.

What the Bear Fist's killer move was, Qin Fang had no idea, but if normal moves already matched some weaker fist techniques' killer moves in terms of lethality, one could only imagine the horror of the ultimate move.

Qin Fang's Life Points had surged lately, successfully breaking through the 40-point mark, and recently, his Strong Body Technique and Tough Skin Technique had also made significant progress, vastly improving his resistance to blows...

"As long as the burst of killing power doesn't exceed 40, you won't be able to hurt me..."

Qin Fang muttered to himself, his body completely taut, ready to unleash his own killer move at any moment. (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes at Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
