After settling Ning Yumo, Qin Fang then strode toward Lei Laohu not far away.

All of Lei Laohu's underlings were dumbfounded by now. In their eyes, their incredibly powerful, almost undefeated boss, Lei Laohu, had been defeated.

Although Qin Fang had taken a fierce attack from Lei Laohu, he didn't seem to be affected at all. He walked with the same ease and steadiness, whereas Lei Laohu was the one lying on the ground, unable to move.

As Qin Fang approached Lei Laohu, his underlings couldn't help but back away slightly, seemingly worried that Qin Fang would go after them next. After all, they were Lei Laohu's underlings and had come to confront Qin Fang.

"You... what do you want? If you want to hurt Lord Hu, you have to step over my body first..."

Of course, there were exceptions to everything. An underling immediately rushed out, blocking Qin Fang's path, posing like a martyr ready to protect his master out of loyalty.

The other underlings, seeing this one's action, began to stir, but before they could make their move, Qin Fang slapped the blocking underling down. That underling instantly slumped like a lump of mud, causing the rest to become terrified. A particularly timid one even let out a scream and quickly fled the scene.

This is what a mob is like, devoid of any real solidarity. As one ran away, the others scattered in all directions in seconds, leaving only Lei Laohu and the collapsed underling.

Qin Fang, however, couldn't care less about them. These hoodlums were the type who only bullied the weak and feared the strong. Their fleeing was to be expected.

He walked up to Lei Laohu, who lay there with eyes open, gasping for air, his face showing a bruise that Qin Fang had given him.

"How is it?"

Qin Fang looked down smilingly at Lei Laohu on the ground. Lei Laohu no longer possessed his previous, overwhelming presence, but he didn't show the cowardice and timidity of his underlings, showing a calm acceptance of his defeat instead.

"Not dead yet..."

Lei Laohu was quite frustrated as he lay there, looking up at Qin Fang who had resoundingly beaten him. When Qin Fang asked that question, Lei Laohu thought it was a taunt and retorted irritably.

"Heh, as long as you're not dead, it's fine..."

Unexpectedly, Qin Fang didn't mind Lei Laohu's tone at all. He took out several Silver Needles and swiftly pricked them into Lei Laohu's body while he was still immobilized.

"You..."

Lei Laohu's face changed dramatically. Although he had initiated the provocation and was defeated and injured by Qin Fang, Qin Fang striking him now was completely justified.

However, Qin Fang not even uttering a word before taking action was slightly unnerving. Just as Lei Laohu wanted to curse or say something vicious, he suddenly felt the strength returning to his nearly paralyzed limbs.

"All done, aren't you going to get up..."

While Lei Laohu was still in a state of shock, Qin Fang had already removed the needles and extended a hand to him as if offering to help him up.

Lei Laohu was skeptical, somewhat confused about the act Qin Fang was putting on, yet he still extended his hand and grasped Qin Fang's. With a slight exertion of strength, his robust body immediately rose to his feet.

After releasing their hands, Lei Laohu moved around a bit, and aside from the intense pain in his face, there seemed to be no other abnormalities in his body; it was as if he had returned to his previous state.

"What... what do you mean by this?"

Lei Laohu was no fool. He had taken a direct hit from Tiger's Rush, and his injuries were definitely severe. Qin Fang's strength was greater than his own, and it was clear that Qin Fang had held back, otherwise, he absolutely wouldn't have been able to get up.

But what truly puzzled Lei Laohu was that Qin Fang could have taken the opportunity to deal with him harshly but he had chosen to let him go and even healed his wounds.

"It's nothing, we don't have any grudges..."

Qin Fang shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he was unconcerned. Lei Laohu was simply fulfilling a commission, a matter of loyalty. Even if Qin Fang had taken action against him, it would just be Lei Laohu's bad luck.

However, Lei Laohu seemed like a decent person, and Qin Fang thought that making a friend like him would be quite nice.

"You... are very strong!"

Lei Laohu's expression was complex, but in the end, he could only squeeze out that much.

He was the one who had fought Qin Fang, and the comparison of their strengths was very clear. Qin Fang was much stronger than him. At least, Lei Laohu was very aware of how powerful his Explosive Bear Strike was. Yet Qin Fang had landed a hit on him even earlier, but the force of the Tiger's Rush had been held back, allowing his Explosive Bear Strike to land first.

However, Lei Laohu's pride in his Explosive Bear Strike couldn't do much to Qin Fang. Qin had taken it squarely but seemed hardly injured at all; his resilience was truly terrifying.

Lei Laohu had thought his strike would be successful, but instead, he ended up being the one severely shaken. And then, Qin Fang's Tiger's Rush finally erupted. Lei could clearly feel that Qin Fang had pulled back a lot of his strength at the last moment, but it still left him seriously injured...

"Heh, you're not bad either..."

Qin Fang casually waved his hand and likewise complimented Lei Laohu.

In all fairness, Qin Fang was kind of cheating. Lei Laohu's Explosive Bear Strike wasn't as weak as he imagined; when Qin Fang took the blow head-on, it depleted more than half of his Life Points given his defense and Life Points.

That was also why he could bear it; if it were just some ordinary person, their head would have been cracked open, or at the very least, they'd be turned into a vegetable.

"Heh, thanks..."

Lei Laohu stood dumbfounded for a while, then walked up to Qin Fang. His large palm-sized hand patted Qin Fang's shoulder as he spoke with a very sincere tone.

"You've offended Young Master Miao Qi. Be careful in Capital City, you might not be so lucky next time… But I consider you a friend!"

Lei Laohu seemed to quite like Qin Fang's temperament, possibly because he respected Qin Fang's magnanimity, and he expressed his initiative very eagerly.

"We're already friends, aren't we? As for Miao Qi, I never took him seriously..."

Qin Fang and Lei Laohu shook hands, both wearing faint smiles on their faces. It indeed seemed like they were no longer enemies with a laugh. However, when Qin Fang mentioned Miao Qi, both of their eyes showed very obvious disdain and contempt. (To be continued.
