Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of bodies getting pierced rang out from time to time, accompanied by intermittent wails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Martial Artists in the late stages of Body Forging seemed to have no major issues, each of them vigilantly watching their surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a group of warriors in powerful armor emerged from the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I told you these damn things are useless.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Blood Hands Xue Ning”, the leader, tossed away the Sky-breaking Crossbow in his hand and spit on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, how could they be useless? Didn’t we just kill a bunch?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His subordinates, looking at the fallen Changhe Town Martial Artist on the ground, chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xue Ning, what are you trying to do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone quickly recognized Xue Ning’s identity and shouted angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What I want to do? Isn’t it obvious? I’m robbing you, hand over everything you’ve got.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning looked contemptuously at the many martial artists of Changhe Town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Changhe Town Martial Artists turned their heads one after another, looking towards the three leaders at the peak of the ninth level of Body Forging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Black Mountain Thieves were the most powerful bandits nearby Changhe Town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several of them were in the late stages of Body Forging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chief Xue, their leader, was at the peak of the ninth level of Body Forging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary families had no power to resist against the Black Mountain Thieves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could only look to the few Martial Artists at the late stages of the ninth level of Body Forging, hoping they would take the lead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xue Ning, do you really think your Black Mountain Thieves can take us all? You’re not even close!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of the Iron Armor Martial Arts Hall, Mu Tie, stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mu Tie, it seems you won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning charged directly at Mu Tie with his fist wrapped in a glove smashing towards Mu Tie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forged-Iron Fist!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Tie showed no fear, punching right back at Xue Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fierce look flashed in Xue Ning’s eyes and a hint of blood appeared on his fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Tie, upon whom so many hopes were pinned, was thrown out like a ragged sack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flew several meters before slamming heavily onto the ground with a dull thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re not in the late stage of Body Forging.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Tie’s eyes were filled with shock. Xue Ning had actually made a breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who told you I was in the late stage of Body Forging? Now, can you put down your weapons and listen to me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning looked increasingly insane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the fallen Mu Tie, the many families in Changhe Town turned unusually pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning had actually made a breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though there is only a minor difference between the peak of Body Forging and the late stage of Body Forging, there is a huge difference in combat capability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the late stage of Body Forging is powerful, they have no ability to resist the vital energy of someone at the peak of Body Forging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the remaining two at the ninth level, their eyes were filled with fear and jealousy when looking at Xue Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A breakthrough in the late stage of Body Forging symbolizes hope of a breakthrough into the Postnatal Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a tiny step, yet it had them stumped for who knows how many years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Minions, search for me. Take all the valuable items and then go to Changhe Town. Changhe Town belongs to us, the Black Mountain Thieves, from now on. I suppose none of you would have an objection to this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning doesn’t care about others’ opinions at all, as inhibition by absolute force makes remaining opinions pointless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Surrender your stuff nicely. Don’t make me act. Once you hand over your possessions, you can leave. Just wait for us Black Mountain Thieves to take over Changhe Town.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The look on Changhe Town Martial Artists’ faces was grim, but they didn’t dare to counter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, someone suddenly noticed Ye Fan in the back of the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We also have a Peak of Body Forging in Changhe Town, Patriarch Ye is also here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look at Ye Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Ye Fan never formally stated that he was at the Peak of Body Forging, there were many assumptions about it in private.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now in this situation, someone had the intention and pushed Ye Fan to the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it would be best if Ye Fan could defeat the Black Mountain Thieves. If he can’t, they won’t be the ones at a loss anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan saw that everyone was looking at him, he thought to himself that this was bad luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that things were not that simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning also noticed Ye Fan, squinting his eyes and staring intently at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Fan, isn’t this the Ye Pharmacist who refined the Boiling Blood elixir?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning did not believe at all that Ye Fan had the strength at the Peak of Body Forging, but he was interested in Ye Fan’s abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Boiling Blood elixir, Five Complete Powder, these are all money-making items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you Ye Fan of Ye’s Pharmacy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan kept silent and did not refute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems that I am lucky today. I have changed my mind now, others can leave after handing over their things, but Ye Fan has to stay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pharmacist, if controlled by oneself, can generate substantial profits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he has met Ye Fan, Xue Ning naturally won’t let him go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Patriarch Ye, save us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Pharmacist, with your strength, you must be able to defeat Xue Ning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people hope that Ye Fan will take action, and it would be great if he could critically injure Xue Ning in the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone wants this Iron Ore Mine, and many people also want the Ye family’s assets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan remained unmoved, considering whether it would be better to just leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to how the scenario is unfolding, if he got rid of the Black Mountain Thieves, would he again fall into a situation where after hitting the son, the father comes for revenge?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a scenario completely goes against Ye Fan’s intention to keep a low-profile development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Pharmacist, I hope you don’t think about escaping. You wouldn’t want an incident to occur to your family, would you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan, who was initially calm, suddenly clenched his fists after hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All I want is to peacefully develop a family. Why is it so difficult?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan slowly raised his head and showed Xue Ning a big smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chief Xue, I want to ask, do you Black Mountain Thieves have any strong backers?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan’s words stunned Xue Ning, who answered instinctively: “What strong backup? If we had strong backup, the Black Mountain Thieves would have rushed out of Changhe Town a long time ago. Why would we need to make a move on Changhe Town, draw you all out, and defeat you one by one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see.” Ye Fan sighed in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you asking this?” Xue Ning hadn’t caught on yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Fan’s smile got even brighter: “Since you’ve confirmed you don’t have any backing, I can feel free to kill you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, Ye Fan made his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light of the blade was raised!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wild wind arose!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The intent of the blade erupted in an instant, encasing Xue Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Ning felt that the easygoing and refined middle-aged man in front of him had instantly become a bloodthirsty beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The influence of heaven and earth made it hard for him to breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the power of Ye Fan’s long sword, Xue Ning had a premonition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn’t be able to block this attack and he would die.\u003C\u002Fp>",1414,"2026-06-06T02:11:19.461Z",1,"novelbin.me","dcf2f7608574a8770e0664cae654ce21d2b62f49335493f589ee8926bbae1611","clan-leader-my-strength-equals-to-that-of-the-en-chapter-21","clan-leader-my-strength-equals-to-that-of-the-en-chapter-19",643,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fclan-leader-my-strength-equals-to-that-of-the-en-cover.jpg"]
