Chapter 676: Chapter 676

"If Haji doesn't come looking for me, that would be his good fortune," Ding Fan said indifferently.

"Exactly, the benevolent one is a Wizard. If Haji foolishly comes looking for trouble with the benevolent one, he'll definitely be shown what for," Xiao Fen said with admiration.

Now, in Xiao Fen's eyes, Ding Fan was extremely impressive.

"Xiao Fen, don't talk nonsense. The benefactor is very powerful, but Haji has a whole troop at his command," the middle-aged woman said with concern.

"What does that mean?" Ding Fan asked the middle-aged woman beside him.

"That Haji was an officer in the Indian army. After he came here, he used his years of experience leading soldiers to build a group of men. Those people are very formidable; three Tusi once joined forces to deal with Haji but were ultimately repelled by his troops. Now in Mali, as soon as Haji's name is mentioned, there aren't many who aren't afraid. A wise man does not fight when the odds are against him; you should leave. You are skilled, but he has five to six hundred men in his troop, you can't afford to provoke them."

After listening to the middle-aged woman, Ding Fan nodded slightly. So, that was the situation.

It seemed that this Haji was a formidable opponent in the region.

However, while Haji could bully the honest people here all he wanted, bullying Ding Fan would be impossible.

Just as Ding Fan and Xiao Fen were talking, a series of dog barks could be heard in the distance.

Xiao Fen's mother's expression turned solemn. "Haji has definitely sent a large group of people. Benefactor, we don't want to involve you, you should leave quickly."

"A mere Haji is not enough to make me take flight," Ding Fan said, and then to Xiao Fen and Mu Zi, "Wait here for me, I'll go and meet this Haji."

Since they had indeed come knocking, Ding Fan decided to go have a look.

If he were frightened off by a mere Tusi, then Ding Fan might as well buy a block of tofu and smash himself to death with it.

Immediately, Ding Fan set off in the direction from which the barking came.

"Mom, I want to go with the benefactor," Xiao Fen said at that moment.

Seeing that Ding Fan was determined to confront Haji and having in mind that Ding Fan had stood up for them, the middle-aged woman said to Xiao Fen, "Be careful on the way."

"Got it…" Xiao Fen replied and then chased after Ding Fan.

"Benefactor, I'll go with you," Xiao Fen said as he caught up with Ding Fan.

Ding Fan pondered for a moment before nodding. "Alright, let's go together."

Ding Fan wanted to take Xiao Fen along mainly because he was not familiar with the terrain here. With Xiao Fen, a lot of trouble could be saved. Moreover, Xiao Fen recognized Haji; with his help in identifying him, Ding Fan could save much hassle.

As for worrying about Xiao Fen being in danger?

Ding Fan wasn't overly concerned. Although in the eyes of the locals Haji might call his men a troop, in Ding Fan's view, they were merely a rabble.

If he could not even protect a child from a rabble, then there was no point in Ding Fan continuing his Cultivation.

Immediately, Ding Fan hoisted Xiao Fen onto his back. With a flicker of his form, Ding Fan vanished from the spot.

Xiao Fen's mother watched the direction in which Ding Fan and Xiao Fen disappeared and knelt down with a worried face, hands pressed together in prayer. "Please God, ensure that the benefactor and Xiao Fen return safely…"

Xiao Fen was lying on Ding Fan's shoulder, feeling as though he was on a rocket. The scenery around them whipped by at great speed.

Xiao Fen never imagined a person could move so fast.

Ding Fan, carrying Xiao Fen, soon encountered many people conducting a search in a dragnet pattern.

Xiao Fen took one look at the people searching and quickly recognized them; they were Haji's men.

"Benefactor, these are all Haji's men," Xiao Fen said, lying on Ding Fan's back.

Ding Fan nodded and extended his Divine Sense to probe the area. At this moment, there appeared to be more than three hundred people just holding guns and searching around.

This confirmed something even more for Ding Fan: this very island must have gold mine veins; otherwise, Haji would not have sent so many people to hunt down the mother and child.

"Benefactor, there are too many of them; if it's not going well, we should find a place to hide," Xiao Fen said with some worry.

After all, there were too many opponents, and all of them were armed. If there were a clash, even though Xiao Fen was young, he could clearly see that both he and Ding Fan would have no choice but to be killed.

As if Ding Fan hadn't heard Xiao Fen's words, he said while carrying him, "Close your eyes."

Xiao Fen was stunned, but then hurried to obey.

Whoosh… In a flash, Xiao Fen could hear bursts of wind whistling by his ears.

Although Xiao Fen was very curious about what was happening outside, since Ding Fan had instructed him, he kept his eyes shut the whole time.

About ten seconds later, the sound of the wind suddenly stopped, and Ding Fan said to Xiao Fen beside him, "Open your eyes."

Xiao Fen hastily opened his eyes.

However, when Xiao Fen opened his eyes and saw the surroundings clearly, his mouth was so agape in surprise that he nearly couldn't close it.

They had been in the very area Haji's men were searching, and now, with just the closing and opening of his eyes, they had appeared on the opposite side of Haji's men…

"Benefactor… Great Sorcerer, could you take me as your apprentice? I want to learn witchcraft from you…" Xiao Fen's admiration for Ding Fan had turned into reverence.

"Survive first, only then can you think about learning," Ding Fan said to Xiao Fen.

Xiao Fen was busy nodding his head at this time.

After evading the search party, Ding Fan's Divine Sense was fully activated, and he quickly found a small group of people not far behind the search team.

This small group of people did not seem to be searching for anyone; instead, there were a number of armed personnel following behind them.

Ding Fan immediately concluded that this small group must be the command system for the search army. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚫𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚫𝕟𝕖𝕥

Ding Fan did not delay and carried Xiao Fen on his back, his figure leaped up and down a few times, then disappeared from the spot.

At this moment, Xiao Fen felt as if he was dreaming. The scenery before his eyes became very blurred due to Ding Fan's high speed. By the time Xiao Fen could see his surroundings clearly again, he had already been carried by Ding Fan to a place three kilometers away.

"Xiao Fen? How is this boy here? Surround them quickly!"

Just as Xiao Fen's soul was unsettled, a familiar voice rang in his ear.

This voice was exceedingly familiar, so much so that it even seemed surreal to Xiao Fen, who remembered clearly that it was unmistakably Haji's voice.

When Xiao Fen looked up, he was astonished to see that standing less than a dozen meters away from him was Haji with a group of people. The one who had just issued the command was none other than Haji himself.

Following Haji's order, five or six armed militants began running towards Ding Fan's location.

Haji was taken aback. He busied himself trying to grab the submachine gun hanging on his back.

Ding Fan turned his attention to the man called Haji, who was fat with a fierce expression. Haji's right leg was indeed injured, leaning on a crutch, likely the one Xiao Fen had mentioned, the one Xiao Fen had stabbed.

Before Xiao Fen adjusted his rifle, Ding Fan had already made his move.

Ding Fan's Wind Blade went straight for the kill, and the approaching armed militants did not even have time to react before they were sliced in half by him.

Suddenly, blood and viscera were scattered all over the ground.

"Wizard... Wizard..." Witnessing this scene, Haji was terrified.

Creating blades out of concentrated air to kill without a trace...

Such things were inconceivable to Haji, who thus thought Ding Fan was a wizard.

"Shoot him down, shoot him down!" Haji shouted at the people behind him.

There were still about a dozen people around Haji, but after he issued his order, they hesitated.

Ding Fan's actions were too bizarre. With little education, they too believed Ding Fan was a wizard and lacked the courage to confront one.

And the others, who had just lifted their rifles, found themselves attacked by another of Ding Fan's Wind Blades, and were cleanly cut down.

"Whoever moves dies!" Ding Fan said with a heavy tone, devoid of any emotion.

The followers that Haji brought watched as their companions were sequentially cut down by Ding Fan. Now, none of them dared to move.

Not knowing who first threw their submachine gun on the ground, many followed suit and tossed their weapons down as well.

Then, all of these people, obediently placed their hands on their heads and crouched on the ground.

"What are you all doing? Get up..." Seeing his subordinates' behavior, Haji's face was filled with gravity.

However, no matter how Haji tried to assert himself, none of the men were willing to stand up.

"Damn..." Haji cursed, and then he suddenly raised his hand, taking a shot at Ding Fan's head.

Ding Fan's brow furrowed slightly; Haji was truly seeking death.

Ding Fan reached out his hand and pinched with two fingers.

Xiao Fen, standing beside Ding Fan, saw it all very clearly. The bullet fired by Haji was pinched between Ding Fan's fingers.

Being able to pinch a bullet with fingertips!

Xiao Fen truly didn't know how to properly admire Ding Fan any further; this was just too awesome.

Xiao Fen was astonished, and so was Haji, who stood with his mouth agape, unable to comprehend how a person could pinch a bullet as it was fired.

If Haji hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that such things could happen in this world.

At that moment, Ding Fan swung his right hand.

Suddenly, the bullet clutched by Ding Fan was shot back.

The bullet flicked by Ding Fan had enough force that before Haji could understand what was happening, his right wrist was penetrated by his own bullet.

The handgun in Haji's hand fell to the ground, and his large body collapsed heavily to the floor.

"Ah..." Haji immediately let out a series of screams.

Haji's subordinates saw everything clearly. The bullet fired by Haji not only failed to take Ding Fan's life, but in a flick of his wrist, Haji's own wrist was shot through.

Wizards... truly terrifying indeed!
