Chapter 837: Chapter 837: The Ning Family Does Not Yet Qualify to Recruit Me

The voice seemed to come from the void, omnipresent!

The Li Family’s Patron’s pupils constricted sharply, and before he could react, a large hand fiercely grasped his head.

"Die!"

Ning Fan’s expression was icy as he expelled spiritual power from his palm, instantly blowing the Li Family Patron’s head into a burst of blood and foam.

Immediately after, his figure flickered and he appeared between Shuang’er and the Bao Family Patron.

"Scram!"

Ning Fan imprinted a palm on the chest of the Bao Family Patron and placed his other hand behind Shuang’er to protect her.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the Bao Family Patron’s figure sharply retreated, spitting out blood mid-air.

He traced an arc through the air and heavily smashed to the ground, his chest deeply caved in, clearly severely injured.

"Considering you behaved fairly nobly, I will not kill you."

Ning Fan coldly dropped a statement, taking Shuang’er back beside Huo Erba.

The Family Heads of The Greatest Eight showed a stunned expression, somewhat surprised by the powerful combat strength Ning Fan had unleashed.

He killed the Li Family Patron with just one strike?

And repelled the Bao Family Patron with a single palm!

"Damn it! He killed another from the Li Family!"

The Li Family Patriarch trembled with rage. If it weren’t for his regular self-care, he would probably be having a heart attack right now.

The other Family Heads remained expressionless, but they all felt a sense of schadenfreude.

Serves you right for betraying us earlier!

Feeling better now, aren’t you?

Even losing one of your Patrons!

Peak Great Masters were one of the critical strengths for The Greatest Eight; losing one meant losing much.

Most Peak Great Masters had been nurtured from Grandmasters, or even lower ranks, and were extremely loyal to their families.

Now that one was dead, recruiting a replacement was nearly impossible.

For the Li Family, this loss was enough to cause the Li Family Patriarch great distress.

"Are you... okay...?"

Huo Erba stammered as his intelligence gradually recovered alongside his cultivation.

Perhaps when he became a Great Grandmaster, he could completely free himself from the influence of the Flower Servant Elixir.

"Don’t worry, big guy, I’m okay," Shuang’er reassured him as she tiptoed and patted his shoulder.

Her complexion was somewhat pale. Although she could already exchange blows with a Peak Great Master, she had not yet fully reached that level of combat strength.

She had managed to temporarily suppress the Bao Family Patron solely through sheer willpower.

If she were to face the Bao Family Patron now, she would probably still be at a disadvantage.

"Don’t worry, now leave everything to me," Ning Fan said gravely, "Just a dozen or so Patrons, I’ll handle them in a moment."

Upon hearing this, the faces of several Family Heads darkened.

"Boy, you are too arrogant," the Ning Family Patron spoke coldly, "Earlier I thought about speaking in your favor, considering our common roots. Now it seems unnecessary."

"Indeed, unnecessary," Ning Fan glanced at the Ning Family Head and scoffed, "Your Ning Family doesn’t have the status to invite me to join."

"Hmph! We’ll see if you can still talk tough later!" The Ning Family Head waved his hand, and the Patrons behind him prepared to step forward.

Just then, the Li Family Patriarch suddenly said with a grim face, "Gentlemen, this youngster’s strength is no trivial matter; don’t give him the chance to defeat us one by one. Let’s go together!"

The Family Heads looked at one another. Although they disdained the Li Family Patriarch—after all, the old fellow had attempted to recruit Ning Fan—they knew his point was valid.

"Then let’s follow what the Li Family Patriarch suggested. Let’s go together," they agreed.

"Right, even if the kid is formidable, he can’t stand against all of us," they reasoned.

"Let’s finish him quickly and eliminate the threat," they concurred.

As the Family Heads issued their commands, the Patrons who had stood behind them moved forward, facing Ning Fan.

In the forefront, there were dozens of Peak Great Masters.

Behind them, however, three Patrons stood apart from the crowd, their gazes indifferently fixed on Ning Fan.

It was as if Ning Fan’s instant killing of the Li Family Patron had no effect on them.

"Kid, with our dozens of Peak Great Masters, you don’t stand a chance," they warned.

"If I were you, I definitely wouldn’t continue opposing us," they advised.

"Be smart and surrender now, or when we get into it, we might not be able to pull our punches," they threatened.

The various family Patrons didn’t consider Ning Fan a significant threat.

So many Peak Great Masters together could easily steamroll any other prominent family.

To them, Ning Fan was like an ant.

"Is that so?"

Ning Fan stepped forward with an icy expression, a wild and unmatched intimidating aura bursting forth from his body.

His deep voice boomed like rolling thunder, deafening to hear.

"Then let’s see if you can make me take a single step back!"

The arrogance in those words changed the expressions of those Patrons.

"Arrogant!!"

"You’re courting death!"

"Today is your day of demise!"

The first two Patrons, impulsive in temper, without a word, surged their inner strength and charged at Ning Fan.

They reached him instantly, one from the left and one from the right, simultaneously throwing punches.

Ning Fan, expression unaltered, raised his palms and easily blocked their offensive.

"Bang! Bang!"

The dull sounds burst forth, yet Ning Fan’s figure didn’t shake at all, as if the attacks had no effect on him.
