The bidding price continued to rise, causing many onlookers to shake their heads.
Before the girl raised her head, no one paid any attention to her.
Only a kind-hearted youth was willing to pay ten taels of silver to bury her mother.
Now that the girl revealed her beautiful face, some of the men who were unwilling to pay went completely crazy.
"I'll pay a hundred taels of silver!"
Very soon, the fat man in luxurious clothes with a big belly snorted softly and then shouted again,
"If someone offers a higher price than me, I'll give it to him! If you don't, then this little girl is mine today. "
A hundred taels of silver!
The people who were bidding shut their mouths.
A hundred taels of silver was already beyond their expectations.
In their eyes, this girl was not worth that much money.
"Thank you, everyone. Thank you for letting me win."
The well-dressed fatty smiled and cupped his hands, his fat face full of pride.
"From now on, you'll follow me."
Then, he looked at the girl kneeling on the ground.
"I'll pay two hundred taels!"
At this moment, a frivolous voice was heard.
The crowd opened up a path, and a thin youth with frivolous footsteps and a sickly face walked in.
His lustful eyes fell on the girl's body.
"Fang Jian?"
Duan Ling Tian recognized this youth who was indulging in wine and women.
The youth was the son of the head of Fresh Breeze Town's Fang Family.
He was only fifteen years old, but he had already ruined many good girls and was notorious in Fresh Breeze Town.
If not for his unusual identity, he would have been beaten to death.
"You think you can pay two hundred taels of silver with your cowardly appearance?"
The fat man with a big belly sized up Fang Jian with disdain.
He did not notice that after Fang Jian appeared, most of the people around him showed a look of fear.
"You're not from Fresh Breeze Town, are you?"
Fang Jian glanced at the fatty and said coldly.
"Hmph! I'm a merchant from outside and have seen the world. Don't think I can't see that even though you're wearing a brocade robe, I don't know where you stole it. I can tell that you're a pauper just by looking at you. You don't even look like a prince in a dragon robe. I'm afraid you can't even take out five taels of silver. "
The fatty looked at Fang Jian with disdain, as if he had seen through him. Hurry up and get lost.
"Puchi!"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but laugh. Most of the people around them blushed. They were afraid of Fang Jian and wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.
"Fatty, you … are dead meat."
Fang Jian glared at Duan Lingtian, then looked at Fatty and took a deep breath.
"You bunch of useless things, why are you still standing there like idiots? Get over here and beat this fatty to death for me! Don't you know who I, Fang Jian, am? In Fresh Breeze Town, I am the boss! "
While Fatty was still in a daze, Fang Jian suddenly shouted.
"Yes, young master!"
Three burly youths around the same age as Fang Jian stepped out and surrounded the fatty.
Fang Jian? He was Fang Jian?!
Fatty was dumbfounded.
Although he had only been in Fresh Breeze Town for a few days, he had heard of some of the famous people in Fresh Breeze Town. Among them was the son of the Patriarch of the Fang Family, Fang Jian.
He was the infamous Young Thug of Fresh Breeze Town. Relying on the power of the Fang Family, he bullied people everywhere. Not many people dared to provoke him.
"So … so it was Young Master Fang. I was blind and didn't recognize Young Master Fang. Please forgive me. I will give this woman to Young Master Fang …"
Fatty's expression changed. He no longer had the smug look from before. His forehead was covered in cold sweat. His tone was humble and respectful.
"It's too late. Beat this young master!"
Fang Jian coldly snorted and shouted.
"Young Master Fang, spare me … spare me …"
The three burly youths, who had obviously completed Body Tempering, directly attacked and beat Fatty until he rolled on the ground and begged for mercy.
The surrounding crowd consciously retreated a few steps and watched from afar. They were afraid that the Fang Family's young master's subordinates would be implicated.
Fang Jian acted as if he didn't hear Fatty's begging.
"Little beauty, come home with this young master. This young master will give you two hundred taels to help you bury your mother. In the future, you will follow this young master well. This young master will take good care of you."
Fang Jian looked at the young girl kneeling on the ground. With an anxious expression, he reached out his hand to hold her hand …
The young girl stood up in a panic. Perhaps it was because she had knelt for too long, her blood was not flowing freely. Her legs were slightly trembling.
"Young Master Fang, this young master has already spent ten taels of silver to buy this servant. This servant is already his for life."
The young girl hid behind Duan Lingtian and said in a trembling voice.
"Ten taels? Didn't you hear this young master bid two hundred taels? "
Fang Jian's face darkened. He felt that he had been played.
"This servant has never let anyone compete. I will follow whoever is willing to pay first to help me bury my mother."
The young girl's voice was filled with stubbornness.
"Not bad, not bad. You have backbone. This young master likes it. However, even if you want to follow him, he might not dare to let you. Kid, don't you think so? "
Fang Jian looked at Duan Lingtian, his eyes flashing with a cold light. He was obviously threatening Duan Lingtian.
Although Duan Lingtian knew Fang Jian, Fang Jian didn't know Duan Lingtian.
"Young master, save me …"
The young girl grabbed onto Duan Lingtian's sleeve as if she was grabbing onto a life-saving straw and begged in a low voice.
She had long heard of Fang Jian's notoriety in Fresh Breeze Town. She feared Fang Jian from the bottom of her heart. She would rather die than become Fang Jian's servant.
"Don't worry."
Duan Lingtian patted the back of the young girl's hand and said with a smile.
His smile made people feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze. The young girl's anxious expression also eased.
"Young master, this fat pig has fainted."
After the well-dressed fatty was beaten until his entire body was covered in blood and he fainted, Fang Jian's three subordinates stopped and reported.
"Don't worry about him for now. Come and take a look. Someone wants to steal this young master's woman."
Fang Jian looked at Duan Lingtian and said with a mocking smile.
"Who is so bold as to steal my young master's woman!"
Fang Jian's three subordinates stared at Duan Lingtian like a tiger eyeing its prey.
"Scram!"
Duan Lingtian's voice was cold, as if it came from the depths of hell. It made people's hearts turn cold.
Fang Jian and his three subordinates were stunned. The surrounding crowd was also stunned.
Where did this hothead come from?
"Kid, do you know who I am?"
Fang Jian asked with a cold smile. He now suspected that this kid didn't even know who he was.
"Aren't you the useless youngest son of the Fang Family's Patriarch? Relying on the power of the Fang Family, you bully people everywhere. I really don't know what will happen to you if the Fang Family is no longer around. "
Duan Lingtian sneered. He held the young girl's soft hand and walked out of the crowd.
"Kill him!"
Fang Jian's face was as red as a pig's liver. He roared with extreme anger.
"Yes, young master!"
His three subordinates rushed towards Duan Lingtian.
"Stand here and don't move."
Duan Lingtian said softly to the young girl. Facing Fang Jian's three subordinates, he was not the slightest bit afraid and directly went up to meet them.
Just now, he could see that the strongest of the three was only at the second level of the Body Tempering Stage. To him, there was no threat.
Duan Lingtian moved his feet, dodging the strongest person's attack and swept behind him.
He nimbly turned around. His upper body leaned backwards, his arms pulled back, and his back trembled. His entire body was like a strong bow that was ready to shoot.
Collapsing Fist!
Duan Lingtian's right fist swung out like an arrow released from a bow. His fist was like a collapsing mountain. He poured all the strength in his body into his fist and it smashed into the opponent's back, hitting the center of his spine …
Kacha!
The opponent let out a shrill scream and flew out fiercely. He collapsed on the ground and fainted.
This scene was almost exactly the same as when Duan Lingtian defeated Li Xin this morning.
The only difference was that when he defeated Li Xin, Duan Lingtian showed mercy and only crippled Li Xin's arm.
But this time, he directly shattered his opponent's spine.
This subordinate of Fang Jian's would never be able to stand up again in this lifetime.
When Fang Jian's other two subordinates saw that their strongest person had been defeated, their expressions changed greatly and they were stunned on the spot.
But when they noticed Fang Jian's cold gaze, they still braced themselves and rushed forward.
Bang! Bang!
Two people at the first level of the Body Tempering Stage. Duan Lingtian teaching them a lesson was like playing a game.
He casually stepped aside, raised his hands, and struck out with both fists. From top to bottom, his fists smashed down and smashed onto the two men's heads, knocking them out.
Chopping Fist!
It was also one of the Five Element Fists of the Form and Will Fist.
For a moment, only Fang Jian was left standing.
Although Fang Jian was the son of the Fang Family's patriarch, his body had been hollowed out by wine and women. He was only at the first level of the Body Tempering Stage. His strength was even weaker than his three subordinates.
"You … Don't come over … I'm the young master of the Fang Family. If you dare to touch me, your whole family will die!"
Seeing Duan Lingtian walking towards him, Fang Jian's expression changed greatly.
"As expected of the young master of the Fang Family. Even at this point, you still dare to threaten me."
Duan Lingtian sneered. He quickly took two steps forward and sent Fang Jian flying with a kick.
Turning around, he pulled the stunned beautiful girl away from the crowd and disappeared at the end of the road.
"The young master of the Fang Family has met a tough opponent this time. He tried to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it."
"I wonder where that youth came from. He doesn't look older than the young master of the Fang Family and his three subordinates, but his strength is so shocking."
"He dared to hit the young master of the Fang Family. He's definitely not an ordinary person."
…
The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed. Among the discussions, most people were gloating.
Duan Lingtian followed the girl back to her shabby house and spent a few taels of silver to bury her mother.
"Take this money and start a small business."
Duan Lingtian took out the remaining silver and handed it to the girl.
"Young master, do you … dislike me?"
The girl's body trembled. Her pretty face was pale and she looked weak.
"What are you thinking? You sold your body to bury your mother because you had no choice. It's just a small matter for me to help you. You don't need to repay me with your whole life."
Duan Lingtian shook his head.
From the beginning to the end, he had never thought of making the girl his slave.
"Young master, you're a good person. Let me follow you. My mother is dead. I have no family in this world. Please."
The girl reached out and tugged at Duan Lingtian's sleeve. She looked very pitiful.
Seeing the expectation in the girl's autumn eyes, Duan Lingtian thought for a while.
"Okay, then you come back with me."
Finally, he made a decision.
"Thank you, young master!"
The girl suddenly smiled like a flower.
When Duan Lingtian left the Li family mansion, he was alone. When he came back, there were two people.
