Lu Fan was the only Dragon Tamer they knew of, so the Jin family was determined to secure him—even if it meant using force.
Seeing the level-30 warrior getting ready to make a move, Han Ke grew extremely anxious. She quickly stepped forward to intervene.
"Wait a minute, both of you—please don't get angry. Xiao Fan spoke a little harshly just now, but can't we talk this through calmly?"
"Xiao Fan really doesn't want to accept your generous offer. If that's the case, maybe it's better to let this matter go..."
Cui Hongtai, seeing Han Ke dare to step in his way, let out a cold snort and casually shoved forward. "The princess has spoken. Don't get in the way!"
As a knight, Cui Hongtai's strength attribute was undoubtedly far beyond Han Ke's. What seemed like a casual push would be far too much for her to bear.
His action wasn't just to push her aside—it was a calculated move to teach Lu Fan a lesson: This is what happens when you disrespect Princess Jin Zhu.
Not only would you suffer, but even your family wouldn't be spared.
But neither Cui Hongtai nor Jin Zhu realized—they had just touched Lu Fan's inverse scale.
Leaving the Dragon Kingdom, becoming a dog for the Jin family—Lu Fan could laugh that off. In his eyes, they were delusional fools, unworthy of anger.
But raising a hand against Han Ke?
Unforgivable.
In this world, Han Ke was the only family Lu Fan had. Anyone who dared to hurt her—must die.
Just as Cui Hongtai's hand was about to make contact, Lu Fan blurred into motion, appearing in front of Han Ke like a shadow, and snatched Cui Hongtai's wrist mid-air.
"You dare lay a hand on my aunt? I'll kill you. Try me."
Lu Fan's eyes were icy, his killing intent so fierce that even Cui Hongtai shivered—he felt like he was facing a beast far stronger than himself.
But then Cui Hongtai snapped out of it. Wait—this guy's just a newly promoted Dragon Tamer, and that's supposed to be a trash class. What am I afraid of?
He was a level 30, second-class advancement knight. Unless there was class suppression involved, he should be unbeatable at this level.
"You dare fight back?!" Cui Hongtai tilted his head arrogantly. "You dare raise a hand against the noble citizens of the Taiji Kingdom? You're asking for—huh?!"
His words abruptly shifted.
He had tried to yank his arm free using brute force, expecting it to be easy. But Lu Fan's grip didn't budge—it felt like an iron clamp.
What the hell?!
Cui Hongtai's strength stat wasn't low—nearly a hundred points. That was more than enough to overpower any newly promoted class-holder.
But Lu Fan's strength… was clearly greater.
Before Cui Hongtai could react, Lu Fan's other hand swung up, slapping him hard across the face with a loud SMACK.
Caught off guard, Cui Hongtai was sent flying out the door and onto the street with a dull thud. He looked utterly humiliated.
Lu Fan brushed his hands clean and sneered, "Noble? A dog who forgets its ancestors dares to speak of nobility?"
Jin Zhu was stunned. She stared in disbelief—her strongest subordinate had been slapped flying by Lu Fan?
But quickly, her shock turned to fury. Like a powder keg igniting, she shrieked, "You dare attack my people? You lowborn filth—"
"Oh right, you too." Lu Fan couldn't be bothered to hear her voice anymore. With a blur, he appeared right in front of her and gave her a slap across the face.
Jin Zhu had neither the endurance nor the agility to resist. Lu Fan's palm landed cleanly, sending her tumbling through the air.
Cui Hongtai had high defense stats, so he'd only ended up with a swollen cheek. But when he scrambled up and saw Jin Zhu had been slapped too, he panicked and rushed to catch her.
"Princess! Are you okay?!"
Jin Zhu shoved him away in rage, then gave him two hard slaps.
"You useless trash! Does this look like I'm okay to you?!"
Her beautiful face was now swollen and red, making her look more like a joke than a princess.
Her face stung with burning pain—and her rage exploded. Pointing into the shop, she screamed hoarsely, "Go kill that insolent bastard for me!!"
"Even if we can't find another Dragon Tamer, I want him dead!"
