Chapter 839: Chapter 282: Call Me Uncle! (5614 words)_3
Chen Fan’s gaze followed the “lightbulb” for a brief moment before his right foot lifted, then forcefully stomped down.
“Boom!”
A wildly ferocious Qi Strength extended from beneath his foot and stretched forward.
“Bang!”
Fang Zimo let out a scream, burst from the ground, his body thrown backwards, landing on the Nine-tailed Cockscomb Snake that had been unconscious for quite a while.
“Hiss!”
The Nine-tailed Cockscomb Snake’s head lifted high before it ‘thunked’ back down, falling unconscious once again.
Fang Zimo lay atop the Nine-tailed Cockscomb Snake, crying out in agony as a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed forth.
Suddenly…
A figure appeared out of nowhere beside her.
It was the white-haired old man who had been playing chess with Zhang Hai.
“Grandfather…”
Fang Zimo looked so wronged she was on the verge of tears.
Fang Yu popped a medicinal pill into his granddaughter’s mouth and said with a half-smile, “Still want to fight?”
Fang Zimo glared hatefully at Chen Fan.
This kid… had no idea how to treat a lady with gentleness!
There was no point in continuing the fight…
It simply wasn’t a battle of the same level.
If it went on, it would only be self-humiliation!
Fang Yu burst into hearty laughter, “You’ve been beaten into questioning your life now, huh?”
“That will teach you to be arrogant!”
“Now you know there are always others stronger than you out there, right?”
“Grandfather!” Fang Zimo was so furious she almost leapt to her feet, “I’m already hurt like this, and you’re still spouting sarcasm!”
Fang Yu chuckled and turned to look at Chen Fan, then walked towards him.
Chen Fan did not recognize Fang Yu but, seeing no malice from the other party, he politely returned the smile.
Looking at Chen Fan, Fang Yu said with a smile, “Ah… if I had a grandson like you, I’m afraid I’d wake up laughing from my dreams!”
“…” Chen Fan blinked.
Was this old man praising him or taking advantage of him?
At this moment, Zhang Hai’s voice rang out from outside the martial field, “Old Ghost Fang, you can keep dreaming!”
“Master!” Chen Fan quickly ran out of the martial field.
Fang Yu, with Fang Zimo in tow, also walked out.
Just as he reached Chen Fan’s side, Fang Yu said, “Call me Uncle!”
“Ah?” Fang Zimo’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“What ah?” Fang Yu spoke, “Since Chen Fan is your Grandfather Zhang’s disciple, aren’t you happy to call him Uncle?”
Zhang Chen approached, emotionless, and added, “Fang Zimo, you and I are of the same generation… My Junior Uncle is also your uncle.”
Fang Zimo’s face turned red with embarrassment, and she turned to run away.
“Click!”
The moment she turned, Fang Yu grabbed her shoulder.
“I’ll call him… isn’t that enough already?!”
Fang Zimo looked at her grandfather with an expression full of grievance and gave Chen Fan a respectful greeting, “Hello, Uncle Chen!”
“Good girl!” Chen Fan nodded.
Fang Zimo nearly spat blood.
Zhang Hai glanced at Fang Zimo and, draping his arm over Chen Fan’s shoulder, said, “We’ll go over there; a few old men are waiting for you.”
With a flick of his sleeve, Fang Yu, along with Chen Fan and Zhang Hai, disappeared into thin air.
“Grandfather!”
Fang Zimo, seeing herself left behind, stamped her foot in anger.
Feng Tianlin rushed over and patted Zhang Chen on the shoulder, “Where’s Chen Fan?”
Zhang Chen replied indifferently, “He might have gone to discuss matters with my great-grandfather and the others… Fang Zimo, you and Grandfather Fang came all the way from Imperial City to Demon City, you must have come specifically to find my Master, right?”
Fang Zimo glanced silently at Zhang Chen before ‘smack!’ she slapped her hand on his shoulder, nearly knocking him to the ground!
“Call me Sister!”
The hand Fang Zimo had placed on Zhang Chen’s shoulder turned into a claw, holding him tight as she growled fiercely, “I’m four years older than you. How is it appropriate to constantly call me Fang Zimo!”
Zhang Chen, only at Grade 2 Realm, could not break free.
He turned his head to Snowy and yelled, “Snowy, save me!”
Snowy vanished with a Thunder Flash, reappearing behind Fang Zimo.
“Thunder Flash?”
Fang Zimo was stunned for a moment.
Before she could react, Snowy slapped her on the back with a palm.
“Boom!”
Fang Zimo screamed miserably and flew out, crashing into and breaking a large tree!
Zhang Chen’s face immediately became a picture of sorrow, “No… Snowy, I asked you to save me, not to kill her!”
“She’s not the enemy…”
Snowy scratched its head.
Zhang Chen dashed over and helped Fang Zimo up.
Looking at Snowy, who seemed much younger than herself, she began to question her life.
Born into the Fang Family of Imperial City, although she wouldn’t dare claim her talent was the strongest in Imperial City, her talent was definitely ranked among the group of geniuses there.
How come after coming to Demon City, these folks here are even more abnormal, one after another?
Chen Fan’s power had already become comparable to that of the Grade 2 Realm, which was downright terrifying.
This Snowy, whom she had never heard of before, was also so powerful!
“Who is she?”
Fang Zimo looked at Zhang Chen and said, “I don’t remember such a person among Demon City’s geniuses!”
Zhang Chen glanced around at the people and whispered into Fang Zimo’s ear, “Snowy is my Junior Uncle’s Guardian Beast.”
“Her true form is a Ragdoll Cat; she just transformed into human form a few days ago.”
“What?!” Fang Zimo almost jumped up in disbelief.
Although some special Guardian Beasts can transform at a low level of cultivation,
a Ragdoll Cat is definitely not one of those special Guardian Beasts.
Most Guardian Beasts have to wait until their Guardian Beastmaster breaks through to the Ninth Grade, or the Guardian Beast itself has the strength above Ninth Grade, before they can transform.
Snowy’s true form is a Ragdoll Cat and she has already transformed into human form?
Snowy has the strength of the Ninth Grade Realm?
Chen Fan has the strength of the Ninth Grade Realm?
Did she just spar with a Ninth-Grade Stronger at the Yen martial field?
Fang Zimo was disheveled in the wind…
It took a while for Fang Zimo to turn her stiff neck and ask, “Zhang Chen, is your Master Chen really only eighteen years old?”
Zhang Chen gave Fang Zimo a look, “How is that possible?”
“Phew!” Fang Zimo felt a little relieved inside her heart.
Zhang Chen continued, “My Junior Uncle is almost nineteen.”
Fang Zimo: “…”
Zhang Chen waved his hand in front of Fang Zimo, saying, “Hey, go find a Healing Type Guardian Beast to treat your injuries.”
Saying that, he waved towards Feng Tianlin and the others, “My Master has gone off on some business, so let’s take Snowy and Gangzi for a tour around. It’s also my first time at the Demon City Guardian Beast Breeding Base.”
Fang Zimo staggered and followed along.
Zhang Chen looked helpless, “Why are you following me… oh right, I say, you guys came all the way from Imperial City to Demon City just to seek help from my Master, didn’t you?”
“What were you thinking, showing off in front of my Master?”
“Cut it out!” Fang Zimo rolled her eyes and said, “Why would we be looking for Chen Fan?”
Zhang Chen was stunned, “You and Grandfather Fang came here, not to seek my Master?”
Fang Zimo said, “My grandfather has been stuck at Sacred Heavenly Realm 1 for a long time. Minister Li told him that there’s someone in Demon City who can help him break through.”
“So he immediately brought me along and flew to Demon City.”
“Oh, so it is about seeking my Master after all.” Zhang Chen said, “In Imperial City, the Zhang Family couldn’t help your grandfather break through… in the entire Tang Country, only my Master has such means.”
Fang Zimo stopped in her tracks, looking incredulously at Zhang Chen, “Kid, how come you’ve become so strange after just a few months not seeing you?”
“I remember you didn’t use to brag like this, did you?”
Zhang Chen glanced at Feng Tianlin and Shangguan Wulei, then mysteriously started smiling.
Fang Zimo was completely baffled.
Zhang Chen sighed and said, “Sigh, your grandfather really dotes on you his granddaughter…”
“He comes over from Imperial City, doesn’t bring anyone else, just you.”
“Let me tell you, Fang Zimo, it’s a good thing my Master is generous and won’t haggle over every little thing with someone like you.”
“Otherwise, just you wait and regret it!”
Fang Zimo’s lips curved slightly, “You’re making it sound more and more mysterious… your little Junior Uncle, in your eyes, seems like a god who can do anything, right?”
Zhang Chen nodded, “Without any exaggeration, my Master does have god-like methods!”
Feng Tianlin and Shangguan Wulei, the three nodded at the same time.
Fang Zimo: “…”
