Chapter 2313: One Man's Battle

girl's wrist and snapped a pair of handcuffs onto it."My goodness, I never would have guessed that such a beautiful girl could be a thief.""What a shame, looks can be deceiving. She's so beautiful bu...The ancient doctor's clinic, with its large storefront, was empty of customers. Inside, it seemed very quiet.

Zhongli was wiping his hands with a cloth, constantly moving back and forth beside him, looking like any ordinary person rather than the powerful Void Realm expert he truly was.

Ye Bufan, Lu Xueman, and Hu Yaoyao were sitting together playing poker.

Nalan Yugua, Jiang Fangzhou stood by watching, Zhang He poured tea and water, only Xiao Qing sat on a small stool, concentrating on playing the game console.

"I'm going to explode, I'm going to explode again!"

Hu Yaya held the poker cards in her hands, a look of excitement on her delicate and pretty face.

First, he threw a bomb, then a pair of bombs, and then looked at Ye Bufan next to him, throwing another card.

"Little brother, hurry up and go!"

Ye Bufan glanced at the two of hearts she had thrown out, then at the ten of spades in his hand. He felt a deep sense of despair.

"Girl, are you serious"

"Of course! Didn't you teach me that We're on the same side, I'll get it done and then send you away!"

"Are you trying to drive me away Are you trying to kill me with anger!"

Ye Bufan forcibly suppressed the urge to beat someone up, "Forget it, let's just have some tea!"

He took a sip of the tea Zhang He had poured, he was really bored these days. He taught two girls to play Doudizhu to pass the time.

But after several hands, he felt like he was fighting a lone battle.

No matter who the landlord is, no matter who is with him, in the end, the one who gets hurt is himself. If this continues, he'll be driven to madness.

At that moment, a cacophony of footsteps echoed from the doorway, followed by a dozen or so men charging in aggressively. They were the three Hao brothers, accompanied by their retinue of over ten men.

These people stood at the door, each looking like a ferocious demon.

Jiang Fangzhou frowned and glanced at Hao Tianlong, who was leading the group. "What are you doing here To see a doctor, you have to pay first. One million high-grade spirit stones."

Ye Bufan remained silent, a smile instead playing on his lips.

He could naturally tell that these people were not here to see a doctor, but to cause trouble.

I've been incredibly bored these past few days. It wouldn't hurt to liven things up a bit with some people interaction.

"One million high-grade spirit stones, that's quite an ambitious claim."

Hao Tianlong sneered and said, "Who is the owner of this medical hall, come out here!"

"I am. What's up"

Ye Bufan was still sitting there leisurely, sipping his tea.

Hait Tianhu arrogantly yelled, "What's the matter Who gave you the guts to open a clinic here without my permission"

Ye Bufan waved his hand, motioning for Jiang Fangzhou, who was about to lose control, to step back.

I was just bored and looking for something to cheer me up, it would be a shame if they all ran away at once.

Though these people before me are a bit weak, they're much better than the main villain.

He asked with a smile, "Do I still need your permission to open a clinic"

Hao Tianbao shouted, "Of course! On this street, no one can do business without the agreement of our three Hao brothers!"

Ye Bufan said, "So now that I've opened it, what should I do"

"You can open it, but you have to pay protection money to our brothers."

Hao Tianlong said, "We brothers are also reasonable people. Protection money has always been a 10% cut."

Since you're all newcomers, I'll take care of you. I won't charge based on how much you earn.

"Just based on your diagnosis fee, isn't it one million Then how about we give you 100,000 high-grade spirit stones"

After he finished speaking, he himself was filled with excitement. That was 100,000 high-grade spirit stones! They had been running rampant on this street for so many years and hadn't made so much money before.

As long as he could squeeze every penny out of this little white face, his brother could leave the imperial city of Tianxing Empire immediately and never have to worry about money again for the rest of his life.

"100,000 top-grade spirit stones, not much, this price is quite reasonable."

Ye Bufan nodded frequently, seeming to agree very much.

At this moment, countless onlookers have gathered around, watching from afar, all bewildered.

Before this, I'd heard countless stories about how skilled the owner of this clinic was, even daring to reprimand the steward's nephew. Now it seems that might not be true.

The three Hao brothers had imagined all sorts of scenarios before: the other side would be enraged, terrified, or even willing to negotiate. They never expected this.

"So you agree" Hao Tianlong spat and said.

"Agree! Of course, I agree!"

"As outsiders without any background, it's easy for us to be bullied when opening a clinic," Ye Bufan said solemnly.

"It's best to have someone protect you, besides, 100,000 high-grade spirit stones aren't a lot."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three Hao brothers were overjoyed, thinking to themselves that they had really stumbled upon a rich customer today, and even regretted that they hadn't asked for a higher price earlier.

On Jiang Fangzhou, Hu Yaya and the others' faces, however, there was a playful smile, it seemed that these guys were going to be unlucky again.

The three Hao brothers probably didn't know what was going to happen next. Hao Tianhu said, "Since that's the case, just pay the money. If anything happens here in the future, just find me."

"Payment accepted."

Ye Bufan said, "But I also want to see your abilities. What if you're not even as good as my people Why would I give you the money"

"Boy, are you going to fight us"

You don't even bother to inquire, do you The three Hao brothers are known throughout this imperial city. Who dares to provoke us

It's not really hands-on, just a test to see what you can do. After all, I paid for this, so I want to know how capable you are.

"I won't make things difficult for you," Ye Bufan said, "Just choose from the people in our clinic."

"As long as I can defeat one, I'll immediately offer up ten thousand high-grade spirit stones."

"You dare to humiliate us, boy!"

The three Hao brothers didn't take these people in front of them seriously at all. In their eyes, Ye Bufan was just a pretty boy.

The rest of them, young and old, could never possibly be a match for these people.

Before, no one dared to come to the door because they were completely waving Zhao Huiying's banner.

"Alright, second brother, the other party did give up 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, so their request isn't too excessive."

He Tianlong only cared about getting the money and leaving, he didn't care about shame or reputation anymore.

"Don't say we bully people, just choose him. He looks young and strong, what do you think"

As he spoke, he pointed with his finger to Jiang Fangzhou standing beside him.

"Sure, I said, you can choose anyone you like from here."

Ye Bufan waved his hand, and Jiang Fangzhou stepped out.

He had the same idea as his boss, since they were bored, they might as well play around. He looked extremely nervous and jittery.

"Lao San, you go."

Hao Tianlong waved his hand, and Hao Tianbao walked to the center of the field.

He looked at Jiang Fangzhou with a sneer, his face full of disdain.

"Even you, a coward like this, deserve me to make a move Fine, I'll let you have three moves."

Jiang Fangzhou's face lit up with surprise: "Really You said so, don't go back on your word."

"You pathetic waste of space, what good are thirty moves against me"

Hao Tianbao puffed out his chest and punched it a few times, showing off his strength.

"Come on, hit me as hard as you want, just moving is enough for me to lose!"r own body, and said incredulously: "What about the injuries on my body""I told you my medical skills are excellent, of course I cured it."Leng Qingqiu said, "How long have I been unconscious Shouldn'...
