Zhuo Bufan said faintly, "ShiJian is also a member of the Lian family. Does she not have the right to run for the next helmsman?"
"She has the right. She and her mother have been chased out of the Lian family. What right does she have to run for the position?" Xu Meili snorted coldly, and a ruthless glint flashed across her fox-like eyes.
"If I say she has the right, then she has the right. Why can't a lark become a phoenix?" Zhuo Bufan said calmly.
However, his words were like throwing a boulder into a calm lake, causing a huge splash and a thousand ripples. Lian Shijian and Lian Lian's gazes fell on him at the same time. Their eyes were filled with doubt, confusion, and shock …
Even if Zhuo Bufan was really good at martial arts, modern society was not like ancient times. Martial arts alone could not be used to run amok.
However, when Lian Shijian saw that Zhuo Bufan was speaking up for her, she hesitated for a moment and didn't say what was in her heart. Zhuo Bufan had spoken up for her several times. If she objected, she was afraid that Zhuo Bufan would be disappointed in her.
"Do you think you're an emperor? Do you think you can let this wild girl into the Lian family with just one word? " Xu Meili's face, which was covered in makeup, was almost distorted. Her fierce eyes seemed to want to eat Zhuo Bufan.
Even Lian Xipo and Uncle Kang couldn't stand it anymore. Both of them saw that Zhuo Bufan was really good at martial arts and didn't want to have a conflict with him. That was why they treated him with courtesy and didn't even pursue the matter of him injuring Xun 'er. They didn't expect him to take a mile after being given an inch.
"Bang!"
This sound came from Lian Xipo slamming his palm hard on the nanmu armrest. His whole body emitted a domineering aura. "Student Zhuo, I'm not going to pursue the matter of you injuring Xun 'er anymore. Now you're still interfering with the Lian family's affairs. You really don't respect the Lian family of Zhongzhou."
"I really don't respect you," Zhuo Bufan said calmly.
After he said this, Lian Lian almost went berserk. He clearly wasn't here to help, but to cause trouble. The Cheap Family could be ranked in the top ten in the Central Plains. Regardless of wealth or manpower, ordinary people couldn't compete with them.
Lian Xi Po and Lian Ju immediately stood up from their chairs. Uncle Kang also straightened his back. Indeed, he was no match for Zhuo Bufan alone, but what if there were two or three of them? Or if they took out their firearms, would they still lose?
The atmosphere suddenly became tense and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder. The bodyguards standing in the hall also exuded a murderous aura. In an instant, Zhuo Bufan had become the target of everyone.
At this moment, a bodyguard walked in and stopped beside Uncle Kang. "Uncle Kang, your senior is here."
"Really?" Uncle Kang was overjoyed. Suddenly, he saw a man in a long white robe and holding a black oil-paper umbrella appear at the door. He looked to be in his fifties, his face was ruddy, and his footsteps were silent.
Zhuo Bufan took another look at the man. He looked to be at least twenty years younger than Uncle Kang, and he called him senior. It seemed that this man had cultivated his martial arts to a certain level and achieved the effect of "rejuvenation," which was why he looked like a middle-aged man.
In fact, just as Zhuo Bufan had guessed, Uncle Kang's senior was called Kang Weiguo. When he was young, he participated in the war and later became a guard for a leader. After he retired, he had been traveling the world.
A few days ago, Uncle Kang received a letter from his senior, saying that he was passing by Zhongzhou and wanted to visit him. He didn't expect it to be so timely.
"Senior Brother." Uncle Kang walked forward and cupped his hands respectfully.
"Master Kang." Lian Xi Po didn't dare to be careless. They had met when they were young, so he naturally knew that Master Kang's strength and status were higher than his.
"Junior, Brother Lian." Kang Weiguo smiled faintly. His posture gave people a very comfortable feeling. He was neither arrogant nor humble. This was a special temperament that came naturally from a person who had a lot of experience.
Kang Weiguo had a square face, but his skin was smooth. He didn't look like a rough man who practiced martial arts. After greeting them, he couldn't help but look at Zhuo Bufan. He was slightly stunned.
He saw that Zhuo Bufan was exuding a transcendent temperament, which gave people a feeling of arrogance, as if nothing could enter his eyes. People with such temperament were either really high-ranking officials who were above tens of thousands of people, or they were rich people who could change the fate of people with a smile.
However, Zhuo Bufan exuded arrogance. Even though he had followed the leader and seen extraordinary people in different fields, those people didn't have this kind of otherworldly temperament.
"What happened?" The shock on Kang Weiguo's face instantly disappeared, and he returned to his usual indifferent appearance.
Uncle Kang said angrily, "This guy is conceited about his martial arts, but he actually didn't take us seriously. He even wanted to meddle in the Lian family's business. It's really annoying."
"Junior, it seems that you suffered a loss." Kang Weiguo smiled faintly. He knew this junior's temperament best. He was so old, but in fact, he was very hot-tempered. Now that he was still willing to stand here and talk, it meant that he couldn't beat him.
Uncle Kang blushed and said, "That guy's strength is at least at the second level of Covert Power."
Kang Weiguo was slightly stunned. He looked up and down at Zhuo Bufan and instantly felt relieved. No wonder he had such an arrogant temperament at such a young age. He was either a direct descendant of a noble family or he had the capital to look down on others.
However, he had stepped into the second level of Covert Power at such a young age. His future achievements would be extraordinary. Kang Weiguo couldn't help but ask, "Little brother, are you really at the second level of Covert Power?"
"I don't know, but it's enough to beat him." Zhuo Bufan looked at Uncle Kang.
"You …" Uncle Kang was so angry that he wanted to scold him, but he didn't dare to. He was so angry that smoke almost came out of his head. In the end, he snorted coldly and simply turned his head to the side.
Kang Weiguo looked at Zhuo Bufan and smiled slightly. He immediately said, "Little brother, you have some martial arts, and you have such achievements at such a young age. You do have the capital to look down on others. However, as the saying goes, there is always someone better than you. It's better to keep a low profile."
After saying that, Kang Weiguo's momentum suddenly changed. Although he didn't move, the strength emitted from his body had already spread out.
