How come I'm invincible?

Chapter 64 If I still chicken out, wouldn't Lin Fan have come for nothing?
Night falls, and the full moon hangs high in the sky.

boom!
boom!
In the still of the night, only the dull thuds of striking echoed.

In the courtyard, Lin Fan stood naked, while the chubby boy gripped a thick wooden stick tightly in both hands and vigorously lashed at him, each blow delivered with maximum force.

Lin Fan's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't move his feet at all.

On the other hand, the chubby boy's face was flushed, and he was panting heavily, with sweat dripping down his cheeks.

After a while.

"All right."

Lin Fan waved his hand.

[Elementary Body Refinement (Mastery 868/1000)]

The skill level increases very slowly; even if an ordinary person uses all their strength in one strike, it is difficult to achieve significant progress.

"Brother... I'm exhausted."

Little Fatty slumped to the ground, his wooden stick lying to the side. He hadn't expected Brother Lin to be so resilient; with each blow, he was afraid of making Brother Lin howl in pain.

But who would have thought that he would act as if nothing had happened?

Upon closer inspection, there wasn't a single mark on Brother Lin's back.

Go get some rest.

"Ah."

Little Fatty left.

Lin Fan stood alone in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking up at the bright moon in the night sky. His thoughts drifted away. He had no clear goal for the future and could only take things one step at a time, focusing on each step he took in the present.

Cultivation is the foundation upon which he stands today.

He understood that the reason he could act so arrogantly and do whatever he wanted in Yong'an City was because everyone feared his strength.

He went to the kitchen, picked up a cleaver, and rubbed his thumb on the blade without feeling any pain. But when he applied pressure, he felt a stinging pain on his skin.

But there was no bleeding.

Gradually increase efforts
The skin on my finger is torn, leaving a gash.

He was testing the toughness of his body; it seems that if someone were to swing a knife at him, they would still be injured.

However, the body's toughness and resilience are not like that of an ordinary person, where a single cut would tear the skin and flesh, exposing the bone.

"Not bad, I need to keep working hard. I wonder what kind of options will appear when I reach the peak of proficiency in the beginner body refinement."

He was really looking forward to it.

He even felt that as long as he continued to cultivate, his physical body would be indestructible.

After putting the kitchen knife back in its place, he thought about preparing some tools for cultivating the initial stage of body refinement. As he thought about it, he walked towards the house. Before going to sleep, he grabbed a handful of Pinellia ternata, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it, swallowed it, and drank some water to soothe his throat.

……

The next day.

Public notice board.

As soon as the county officials posted the notice, it attracted a crowd of onlookers.

"The county government has issued a notice. What will it be this time?"

"Who knows what it is? As long as we don't have to pay some random tax."

"Can tax payments be determined by the county government? Aren't they all orders issued by the imperial court?"

"Dog Egg, what does this announcement say?"

"I've never been to school, I can't read or write. You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"

"Damn it, you know you're illiterate, what are you doing standing there? Get out of the way."

Soon, the literate villagers, after reading the contents of the notice, stared wide-eyed in astonishment, clearly not expecting the county government to issue such a notice.

The surrounding people were asking questions.

"My God, do you know what this announcement says? It actually says that the Public Security Bureau and the County Government are joining forces to launch a 100-day campaign to crack down on organized crime in Yong'an."

What does "sweeping away organized crime and eliminating evil forces" mean?

"Anyway, it's a good thing. It should be used to crack down on gangs and thugs. The document also says that if anyone has been bullied by thugs, they can report it to the police station."

Wow——!
The crowd erupted in an uproar, with gasps of surprise growing louder and louder.

The people looked at each other in disbelief, hardly able to believe their ears. It was hard to believe that this was an operation jointly organized by the county government and the public security bureau.

"I heard that there is a Lord Lin in the Public Security Bureau. He is a man who truly works for the people. He has already arrested He Sen and Yuan Jiang, and even Hu Yu, the young master of the Hu family, has been arrested."

"I've heard about it too. They all say it's Lord Lin, the upright official. You know the Wang family of the tavern, right? It was Lord Lin who handled this matter, directly arresting Hu Yu and getting justice for them."

"Let's go check out the police station."

"Go, go."

...The announcement spread very quickly.

Before long, it became common knowledge.

Loyalty Hall.

The atmosphere was horribly depressing.

Chen Qingshan's face was dark as he looked at the remaining hall masters, especially Wang Changhai, who was furious. Wang Changhai, on the other hand, held his head high, looking as if he was not afraid of anything.

Huang Wei slammed his fist on the table and shouted, "Damn it, what do the county government and the public security bureau mean by this? Sweeping away organized crime? Sweeping away who? Eliminating who? Who the hell is organized crime? Who the hell is evil? I think they themselves are the most organized and evil!"

The mother content is extremely high.

Ever since Lin Fan beat me up last time.

Huang Wei's hatred for Lin Fan was truly off the charts. What he found even more unacceptable was that the news of him being beaten up had been spread around, making him a laughing stock.

Ma Jiang still held the dagger between his fingers. "I think this is an open attack on us. I thought he was just targeting us to pave the way for someone and take down He Sen, but who would have thought that Yuan Jiang from the Fierce Tiger Gang would also be arrested?"

Clap!

Wang Changhai, who was drinking tea, frowned. He was very unhappy with the veiled remarks made by some people. He angrily slammed his teacup to the ground and shouted, "You surnamed Ma, let me tell you, if you're going to say something, then say it by name. What do you mean by 'paving the way for someone'?"

"Don't try to act tough in front of me. Don't think I don't know about all the dirty deeds you've done. When we leave, I'll go straight to the police station and report you."

At this moment, Wang Changhai was very assertive.

The other hall masters rolled their eyes at the sight.

For Wang Changhai, before Lin Fan arrived, he was a coward, but after Lin Fan arrived, if he was still a coward, then Lin Fan's trip would have been in vain.

Everyone knows that Lin Fan has a good relationship with him; he was the one who cultivated him.

He has now been promoted to deputy leader.

What does this mean?
This demonstrates Li Dianshi's approval; no one in the Zhi'an Prefecture can touch him.

"Wang Changhai, don't be so arrogant." Ma Jiang stood up abruptly, stabbed the dagger into the coffee table, and glared at the table.

"Arrogant?" Wang Changhai sneered. "Do you believe I'll go and call Lin Fan over right now, and you can ask him yourself whether I, Wang Changhai, can be arrogant, and if I get beaten up for being arrogant, will he care?"

"Judging from your current expression, do you want to hit me?"

"Hit me if you want."

"Hit me."

Wang Changhai never imagined he would have such a strong and resolute day.

In the past, when I was criticized.

He always kept his head down, stayed in the corner, and didn't say a word. But after what happened recently, he kept thinking about whether he, Wang Changhai, could be arrogant now.
The answer was clear.

can.

"Enough!" Chen Qingshan scolded. "Look at the state you're in now. Do you still have any sense of responsibility as hall masters? If you don't want to be hall masters anymore, just say so. There are plenty of people who want your positions."

Ma Jiang snorted and turned his head away.

"Whoever sits here will be unlucky," Wang Changhai muttered under his breath.

Chen Qingshan suppressed his anger, turned his gaze to Wang Changhai, and softened his tone, "Changhai, I promoted you myself. You must remember that you are a member of the Loyalty Hall. You have a good relationship with Lin Fan. Go and ask him what he wants in order for him to let us go."

Wang Changhai said, "Boss, you overestimate me. I'm nothing but a fart in front of him. My words are useless."

"Then who's useful?"

"I do not know."

Wang Changhai was too lazy to bother with this matter.

Just as Chen Qingshan was about to speak, he saw one of his underlings rush up to Huang Wei in a panic.

"Master, something terrible has happened! Old Man Li has reported you to the local police station."

Huang Wei, who was rubbing his feet, was startled and suddenly stood up.

"What do you say?"

"Old Li went to report you."

Huang Wei was visibly nervous. He naturally knew about Old Man Li's situation; his daughter had given birth to a beautiful girl, whom he had his eye on and planned to sell for a high price.

The man is still imprisoned, and there hasn't been a chance to make a move yet.

As for Old Man Li, he was disabled in both legs, bedridden for a long time, and unable to move. Moreover, he arranged for someone to watch over Old Man Li, just in case he would cause trouble.

"Where are the people watching him? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him?"

"Master, we can't stand by and watch, the brothers are all scared."

"Be afraid of your mother my ass!"

Enraged, Huang Wei kicked his underling to the ground. He was panicked, feeling that this so-called 100-day operation would probably target him first.
