Chapter 294: Chapter 294

Who else could it be, if not Ding Fan.

At this moment, Lin Qingqing didn't know whether to feel wronged or excited, tears streamed down her face. She had already resigned herself to death a moment ago, but now that Ding Fan appeared, she knew she would not die today....

Ding Fan coldly stared at the middle-aged man whose wrist had been severed by his Wind Blade, his gaze filled with a deadly intent.

The middle-aged man, holding his severed wrist, screamed in agony. Even now, he couldn't understand how Ding Fan had appeared here. After all, outside the Land Temple were many of his own men guarding the place. If Ding Fan had come here, there was no reason his people outside wouldn't have known about it.

"Why harm Lin Qingqing, why incite hatred between me and the Lin Family... who sent you?"

"I won't tell you. Even if I die, you won't find out anything from here." The middle-aged man was very stubborn.

At this moment, a series of footsteps came from outside the Land Temple. Clearly, the middle-aged man's men had noticed the noise inside and were coming to help.

"Brothers, don't mind me! Ding Fan is here... Shoot, throw grenades..."

The middle-aged man was clearly intent on dying, he yelled desperately at his subordinates outside.

A gleam of cold light flickered in Ding Fan's eyes as he suddenly grabbed a handful of iron nails and threw them out with a flick of his right hand. The nails sped outward in a scattered pattern. Content orıginally comes from 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥

Subsequently, a series of thudding sounds of bodies falling echoed from outside the Land Temple....

The middle-aged man waited a while longer, but by then there was already no more sound outside. "You... what have you done?"

The middle-aged man looked at Ding Fan beside him.

"Your men are all dead..." Ding Fan spoke indifferently, as if killing people was no different to him from slaughtering chickens and dogs.

The middle-aged man's eyes widened in disbelief.

How... how could it be!

Just now, Ding Fan clearly hadn't gone out; he had only thrown some iron nails outside. Ding Fan's nail-throwing technique was indeed terrifying, with formidable momentum and astonishing force.

But to say that his subordinates were all massacred by a single throw of iron nails, he found it hard to believe.

Ding Fan stood inside the Land Temple, utterly unaware of the situation outside, yet with just a handful of iron nails, he had eradicated all his subordinates...

This was simply too shocking.

Although the middle-aged man couldn't believe it, there was one fact.

If any of his men were still alive, why was it so eerily quiet outside? The middle-aged man knew his own men very well. They were desperadoes who disregarded life and death; even if injured, they would still fire bullets into the Land Temple.

But now it was utterly silent outside, and from this, the middle-aged man could be sure that all his men were indeed dead.

A handful of iron nails thrown inside the Land Temple, and all his men outside were eradicated...

Even the middle-aged man had to admit, Ding Fan was formidable!

"Just kill me, I definitely won't tell you anything." The middle-aged man seemed to have made up his mind as he spoke to Ding Fan.

The middle-aged man looked resigned to his fate.

However, Ding Fan didn't care at all; he abruptly stretched out two fingers, directly striking the middle-aged man's acupoints.

After being struck by Ding Fan, the middle-aged man's body jolted like it was electrified, occasionally twitching, his gaze becoming somewhat dull.

Ding Fan could see that the middle-aged man was determined. It would be difficult to extract anything from him, so Ding Fan didn't want to waste time and directly used the Soul Capturing Technique to inquire about what he wanted to know.

The so-called Soul Capturing Technique, previously explained, is a kind of spell, somewhat like hypnotism, but more lethal than hypnotism. Once someone is subjected to Soul Capturing Technique, their divine sense will be injured, and afterwards, they will turn into an idiot... In severe cases, they will die from brain death, with no hope of recovery.

"Who arranged for you to kidnap Lin Qingqing?" Ding Fan asked the middle-aged man.

"Ye Chenliang..." The middle-aged man sounded strange, but he honestly confessed.

Lin Qingqing, watching, was startled. The middle-aged man had been very defiant just before, but now he had given in completely. She didn't understand what Ding Fan had done.

Ding Fan was slightly shocked upon hearing the name. Back in Dongcheng, Ding Fan had once saved his life. He hadn't expected that upon meeting again, Ye Chenliang would begin plotting against him.

"What does Ye Chenliang want to do?" Ding Fan asked.

"Ye Chenliang knows... knows that you have a special relationship with Lin Qingqing. We pretended it was you who lured Lin Qingqing out and then directly killed her... Lin Qingqing is the precious daughter of the Lin Family, once she dies, the Lin Family will certainly not just let it go..." the middle-aged man said on the side.

Ding Fan pondered for a moment. "Ye Chenliang wants the Lin Family to take revenge, to avenge his ancestor Ye Qingyun whom I killed."

When Ding Fan killed Ye Qingyun, all of Yanjing trembled. Because of this incident, the Ye Family lost their divine status among the Four Great Families overnight.

But at this point, not a single person from the Ye Family stood up. Ye Chenliang's tactic of borrowing a knife to kill someone clearly showed his intent for revenge.

"Yes... the family head said it's not yet time for revenge... but Ye Chenliang said... because of you the Ye Family perished, and even if he couldn't kill you, he wanted to make your life miserable... cough cough..."

At this point, the middle-aged man began to cough violently.

Ding Fan knew that the middle-aged man's reaction was due to the unbearable pressure the Soul Capturing Technique had caused him. If the oppression continued, he would directly die.

"Are you from the Ye Family?" Ding Fan asked his final question.

"I am from the Ye Family. My name is Ye Cheng..."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he spewed a mouthful of blood and then collapsed directly onto the ground. Ding Fan's Divine Sense swept over. Ye Cheng had succumbed to the pressure and died of brain death.

At this moment, Ding Fan didn't bother with Ye Cheng by his side. He turned and began to untie all the ropes binding Lin Qingqing.

Once the ropes on Lin Qingqing were untied, she immediately flung herself into Ding Fan's arms.

"Brother Fan, I thought I would never see you again... Brother Fan..." Lin Qingqing, a delicate beauty with tears streaming down her face like raindrops, had become a person of tears in just a moment.

Ding Fan was not particularly good at comforting people. He simply let Lin Qingqing cry on his shoulder.

It's unclear how long she cried, but Lin Qingqing finally dried her tears. Seeing the wet patch she had made on Ding Fan's shoulder, her cheeks turned red.

By then, evening was gradually setting in. The area was still some distance from the urban district of Yanjing, so Ding Fan immediately had Xiao Mei clean up the scene.

Then, Ding Fan took Lin Qingqing towards the city district.

Since Lin Qingqing had sustained quite a serious injury to her ankle, she could not force herself to exert too much effort. Although Ding Fan had treated her simply, Lin Qingqing was an actress, and exerting too much force might lead to complications that would be troublesome to manage.

As evening approached, it was hard to see any cars passing by on this road.

Having no other choice, Ding Fan could only carry Lin Qingqing on his back and slowly walk towards the city along the country road.

Carrying Lin Qingqing, they didn't walk fast. By the time it was completely dark, they had only reached a small town.

The journey had been tough, and though Lin Qingqing was carried by Ding Fan, her complexion still looked rather unwell. After all, she was just a delicate woman.

Seeing this, Ding Fan realized it was unsuitable to continue the journey now. With the current situation, they could only settle down first, find a hotel to rest for the night, and continue their journey the next morning.

Immediately, Ding Fan found a hotel.

Ding Fan had intended to get two hotel rooms, but unfortunately, there was only one room left. With no other choice, Ding Fan had to make do and stay in the room with Lin Qingqing for the night.

Ding Fan's plan was good, but when the hotel owner opened that single room, Ding Fan was utterly speechless. Not to mention how pitifully small the room was, upon entering, there was just a tiny space to place shoes, and the rest—less than ten square meters—was taken up by a large bed.

Sounds of a woman moaning and the wooden bed creaking came from the next room. This place was clearly meant for hookups.

Ding Fan glanced at Lin Qingqing beside him. While it made no difference to him about where he stayed, his main concern was whether Lin Qingqing would be uncomfortable staying here.

Perhaps because she heard the passionate moans of the man and woman fighting fiercely next door, Lin Qingqing's cheeks were now tinged with a deep blush.

"Qingqing, staying here, what do you think?" Ding Fan asked.

Lin Qingqing pondered for a moment. If it had been anyone else, she would have definitely said no without hesitation; she had never lived in such a broken place from childhood.

But since Ding Fan had saved her, and they couldn't continue their journey, if they couldn't stay here, they would have to find another place...

"Brother Fan, let's stay here," Ye Ningqing nodded and said.

Ding Fan nodded. Since Lin Qingqing had also said so, Ding Fan had no more objections.

After completing the room rental procedures, Ding Fan and Lin Qingqing entered the room.

Once inside, an inevitable awkwardness filled the air, especially as the couple next door reached the climax stage of their activity, unabashedly emitting noisy moans.

With Ding Fan and Lin Qingqing alone in the room, and with such a scene next door, how could they be at ease?

"You sleep, I'll look up some stuff," Ding Fan said to Lin Qingqing.

The small room did have a computer, and while speaking, Ding Fan turned it on.

Since his rebirth, Ding Fan had learned the basics of using a computer. However, upon turning it on, the screensaver image on the computer made them even more embarrassed.

On the computer screen, a nude man and woman were engaged in a very sultry act...

Ding Fan immediately unplugged the power...

"Cough cough... Maybe I won't look it up after all"...
