Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 1435 - 1472: Wu Qiancai

Wu Qiancai knew deep down that her and her sister's cultivation talent were quite similar, and indeed quite excellent! After all, both of them were at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, which was quite impressive for their age. Although they couldn't be considered unparalleled geniuses, her father had said that some disciples of the Great Gate Sect might reach the Emergence Stage at their age.

Yet Wu Qiancai knew she couldn't compare with those disciples from the Great Gate Sect, but she was obviously much stronger than ordinary cultivators. Most cultivators at her age were only at the Early Nascent Soul Stage. Therefore, when Wu Qiancai saw that Ding Fan was merely a cultivator not even at the Nascent Soul Stage, it was evidently impossible for a cultivator like that to be a match for her sister.

While Wu Qiancai was disparaging Ding Fan in her thoughts, she had unknowingly walked near Ding Fan's courtyard. Suddenly, she heard a rumbling noise, making her pause with curiosity about what Ding Lin might be doing in the courtyard to cause such a commotion, not to mention the gusts of wind accompanying the sound.

Wu Qiancai was only a few meters from the courtyard gate where Ding Fan was, but the gusts of wind sounded continuously, shocking her greatly. It was evident Wu Qiancai couldn't fathom what Ding Lin was doing to create such noise, knowing it was someone practicing martial arts. Yet, the extent of the commotion suggested it was not something an average cultivator could produce.

For a moment, Wu Qiancai doubted whether she had come to the wrong room, perhaps her father's instead of Ding Fan's. But after a glance around, it was clear this was indeed Ding Lin's residence. Curiosity rose in her heart; how could Ding Lin, a cultivator not even at the Nascent Soul Stage, cause such an effect?

Wu Qiancai quietly approached the courtyard gate, her steps light as she concealed her True Qi to the minimum, wanting to see what Ding Fan was up to. If he was doing something inappropriate, she wouldn't hesitate to tell her father to have him expelled.

Soon, Wu Qiancai reached the courtyard gate and looked inside.

Inside, a young man was relentlessly practicing a fist technique, with an awe-inspiring aura. Every punch was filled with the sense of power, exuding masculinity. The techniques were not only imposing but elegant and agile, evidently beyond what ordinary cultivators could achieve. Wu Qiancai was deeply shocked.

She only saw the young man's back, causing her to be greatly astonished. Wu Qiancai realized this fist technique was not something an ordinary cultivator could wield; indeed, a cultivator not even at the Nascent Soul Stage couldn't possibly perform it. Those capable of such a technique were likely at or above the Emergence Stage!

"This is truly unbelievable!"

Wu Qiancai's heart was shaken, and she strongly desired to see whether this boy was indeed Ding Lin. If it was, it was beyond belief!

Wu Qiancai only saw Ding Fan's back, not his face.

She grew anxious, and at that moment, Ding Fan suddenly turned around. She saw Ding Fan's handsome features, and her heart skipped a beat in shock. She hadn't anticipated it indeed to be him, appearing as a cultivator not even at the Nascent Soul Stage, yet his fist technique was superior even to those of the Emergence Stage, an incredible feat!

"Could he truly be a worthless fool?" Wu Qiancai nervously questioned herself. As Ding Fan turned, startled, she instinctively hid behind the courtyard's stone pillars. This was a subconscious move, but she remembered she was calling him to eat. Her heart echoed shock.

She couldn't believe it was truly Ding Lin; the current Ding Lin seemed vastly different from the one she knew, initially a cultivator not even at the Nascent Soul Stage. Now, from the technique he displayed, he wasn't just a simple cultivator at that level—even a Late Nascent Soul Stage cultivator might struggle to exhibit such a powerful fist technique.

As the girl contemplated this shock, suddenly a loud explosion resounded.

Boom!

The girl was startled and glanced back, finding the stone pillars behind her completely shattered, and the next moment she was pulled in by an intense force.

Everything happened in an instant, unexpectedly. Her body seemed controlled by an unknown power, propelling her directly toward Ding Fan.

Ding Fan, witnessing this, was startled too. He hadn't expected the one spying on him to be Wu Zun's daughter. He had seen Wu Zun's two daughters when he first entered the Wu family, and though not having spoken much, he could recognize this girl.

Initially, Ding Fan focused on practicing the second move of Mortal Fist, unaware of anyone's presence nearby. After turning, discovering someone spying, he instinctively mistook Wu Zun's daughter for a Wild Wolf Gang cultivator and immediately released the Dragon Capturing Palm towards her. Originally, he was surprised by how quickly he mastered the technique but hadn't expected it to be Wu Zun's younger daughter.

Immediately, Ding Fan slightly withdrew his force. Although there was no longer any suction, the opponent's cultivation was evidently weak, causing her to continue flying toward Ding Fan with inertia. Ding Fan lightly tapped the ground with his foot, then leapt in the air, catching the opponent's slender waist. Ding Fan couldn't help but feel a bit of warmth in his hands. Her figure was so slender that it felt weightless to Ding Fan. Then, Ding Fan gently placed her back on the ground, lightly steadying her with his hand.

In that instant, Ding Fan and the opponent locked eyes. Ding Fan realized that the girl was quite beautiful—perhaps not as beautiful as Zhou Ruoran and others, but definitely a beauty. Wu Qiancai, seeing Ding Fan's appearance, felt an inexplicable panic and shyness, since her body had never been touched in such a manner before.

Especially when Ding Fan's arm touched Wu Qiancai's waist, she felt a wave of emotions. She was supposed to be mad at Ding Fan, since he acted against her in her own home. However, seeing Ding Fan's reaction, Wu Qiancai felt relieved. It was clear his actions were not deliberate and he simply mistook her for a villain.

Wu Qiancai could understand this because apparently she was caught spying during his martial arts practice.

For a moment, Wu Qiancai found herself tongue-tied in front of Ding Fan, then shyly said something and quickly left.

"It's time to eat."

Watching the girl run away, Ding Fan's expression remained calm. Clearly, the girl's appearance did not disrupt his thoughts. Ding Fan's mind was still occupied by the second move of the Mortal Fist technique. The effect of the second form astounded him. It was extremely effective, and Ding Fan believed his Dragon Capturing Palm could definitely seize a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

"Brother Ding, are you alright?"

At this moment, Wu Zun heard the earlier commotion and hurriedly came to Ding Fan's courtyard entrance. Upon arriving, he noticed the courtyard's stone pillar arch was shattered into pieces. Naturally, Wu Zun wasn't concerned about the stone pillar arch itself; his main concern was Ding Fan's safety. Wu Zun hastily entered and, with concern, asked Ding Fan.

At this point, Ding Fan saw Wu Zun and calmly said:

"It's nothing, I just mistook your daughter for an enemy..."

"My daughter already told me. I've spoiled her, and she's quite naive. Please bear with her." Wu Zun had already encountered his youngest daughter running to him flustered, and inquired about the situation. Wu Zun knew well that interrupting a cultivator during their training is a serious matter, so he couldn't help but worry about Ding Fan's safety. Although Wu Zun wasn't entirely sure of Ding Fan's background, it was evident by his young age and formidable skills that he must have a notable origin.

Moreover, after simple interactions with Ding Fan, Wu Zun appreciated Ding Fan's character. Given Ding Fan's exceptional cultivation, Wu Zun was very willing for his daughter to marry him.

Thus, Wu Zun said bashfully.

Ding Fan saw that Wu Zun understood the situation, so he didn't bother to explain further. Then, under Wu Zun's lead, they headed to the dining room.

Throughout the meal, Ding Fan felt a bit resigned. Clearly, he sensed Wu Zun's intention to pair him with his eldest daughter. Ding Fan understood Wu Zun's purpose but knew it was impossible for him and Wu Zun's daughter to be together. However, Ding Fan realized this was their home, so he could not directly refuse. He wasn't too worried about it.

Ding Fan could tell Wu Zun's eldest daughter was evidently not interested in him, which was to Ding Fan's relief. However, what slightly bothered Ding Fan was Wu Zun's youngest daughter, Wu Qiancai, seemed to have taken an interest in him after their brief encounter earlier.

"Brother Ding, please eat some more."

At this moment, Wu Qiancai shyly added a dish to Ding Fan's plate and said bashfully.

Seeing her sister's actions, Wu Qianwen couldn't help but feel curious as to why her sister was so enthusiastic about Ding Lin, especially since she knew her sister's temperament well. Clearly, her sister would not be interested in a cultivator who hadn't even reached the Nascent Soul Stage.

Wu Qianwen felt quite curious for a moment and glanced at her sister. Wu Qiancai, caught by her sister's gaze, felt embarrassed and focused on eating her meal. There had been no chance yet to explain the matter between her and Ding Fan to her sister.
