The bearded man, clutching his bleeding hand, looked around and roared, "Who? Who hurt me?"
He stared wide-eyed, like a furious beast.
He didn't even see how the chopsticks were shot at him, so naturally he didn't know that Fang Han had used his divine sense to control the chopsticks and injure him.
He thought Fang Han was still a weakling, and a boastful, mentally unstable one at that. He never imagined that Fang Han could already use his divine sense to control objects and launch attacks.
The surrounding crowd was stunned by this sudden turn of events. After a brief silence, a murmur broke out among them.
"What...what exactly is going on?"
A man dressed in a coarse cloth shirt stared wide-eyed, his face full of disbelief.
"Could it be that Fang Han is truly a hidden master?"
A thin, scholar-like man standing nearby frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"What kind of expert? Don't be fooled by this illusion!"
A greasy-faced, obese diner curled his lip and said disdainfully, "Who doesn't know Fang Han? He comes from that remote Yanming City, and a few years ago he was a notorious good-for-nothing. If it weren't for Qiao Qianshan expending a lot of true essence and using those precious special medicines to carefully refine a special high-grade body tempering pill for him, he would never have been able to become a beginner-level martial artist in his entire life. Moreover, even if he had barely become a beginner-level martial artist, he would have become an idiot not long after and was expelled from the Dragon Abyss Sword Mansion. How could such a good-for-nothing idiot possibly be a master?"
"Could it be that someone couldn't stand by and watch, and was trying to stand up for justice?"
Another diner asked cautiously.
"Hmph, speaking of which, Grandmaster Qian Qiang of the Demon Suppression Division is Qian Siyu's distant great-uncle. The Qian family has been arrogant and domineering in this town because of Grandmaster Qian Qiang's name. Today, whether it's Fang Han or the Ma family, they will definitely suffer the consequences."
The obese diner shook his head and said with certainty.
"That's right, that's right. This bearded man is Qian Shao's trusted subordinate. He's injured, how could Qian Shao let it go? The Ma family was hoping to get that hundred taels of silver, but now it seems they won't get a single tael, let alone a hundred. However, Ma Rou will still have to obediently become Qian Shao's concubine."
The people around them echoed this sentiment.
The onlookers, who had originally stayed in the shop with the intention of watching a show, were all quite surprised to see the bearded man injured. They began to whisper among themselves and discuss the matter.
However, even after this happened, no one still had faith in Fang Han.
In their view, Fang Han was undoubtedly courting death and had gotten himself into huge trouble.
Ma Kun and Ma Rou were also dumbfounded. They didn't know who had stabbed Qian Siyu's bearded subordinate with chopsticks.
But they didn't believe that Fang Han could become so powerful that he could injure a mid-level martial artist like Big Beard without anyone noticing.
"Qian Siyu, you'd better get out of here now, or you and your men will suffer more than just a pierced hand."
But Fang Han seemed not to hear the diners' discussions in the restaurant. He looked at the bearded man and said calmly.
"Fang Han, you good-for-nothing idiot, how dare you act all high and mighty in front of me?"
Fang Han's words did not deter Qian Siyu; instead, they enraged him. Qian Siyu snorted coldly at Fang Han, then looked around and said, "Everyone, I know there may be experts among you, but I advise you not to secretly help this good-for-nothing idiot and the Ma family. Otherwise, you will offend my Qian family. My grand-uncle, Grandmaster Qian Qiang, has a violent temper. When he leads his men to annihilate your family, it will be useless for you to kneel down and beg for mercy."
As Qian Siyu spoke, he scanned his surroundings warily, trying to find some clues from the expressions of the people around him.
He didn't see any helpers around Fang Han at all, and secretly guessed that what had just happened must have been someone who didn't like him and secretly helped Fang Han.
But since this person only dares to act in secret, he must not have the guts to openly offend the Qian family.
Thinking about this, he felt that it shouldn't be too difficult to control the person who had secretly made the move.
Those watching the spectacle were taken aback by Qian Siyu's words and exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes filled with doubt and speculation as they whispered among themselves, wondering who had made the move.
After all, in everyone's eyes, Fang Han was just an unknown person, and he hadn't made any special moves in front of everyone just now.
No one could have imagined that in just a few short years, the person who was once regarded as a good-for-nothing and a fool by everyone would now become a giant figure in Tianyuan County, whose every stomp of his foot could make the entire county tremble.
As Qian Siyu's murderous gaze swept across the crowd like a blade, the onlookers all flinched and avoided eye contact, afraid of getting into trouble.
Seeing this, Qian Siyu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile. He knew that his threat had worked.
So he turned around and shouted to his men, "You all keep a close eye on this guy and see which blind fool is messing with me!"
"yes!"
A dozen experts responded in unison, and then they instantly dispersed, like a pack of well-trained hunting dogs, tightly surrounding Fang Han. Each of them looked on alertly, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Qian Siyu looked at his men and saw that they had laid a tight net. He was secretly pleased with himself, thinking that with such a tight guard, no one would be able to secretly help Fang Han.
