"Where are you Fang Tanxing? It's time for our sword training!"

Inside a training hall, a well built man holding a wooden sword is shouting.

As he was doing so, a middle aged woman appeared at the entrance of the hall holding a tray filled with two cups of green tea.

"Fang Kou. Our son is always training everyday, give him time to play, don't forget that he's still a child even though he's talented" The woman lectured her husband after seeing his state.

"But this isn't the first time..." Fang Kou tried to explain himself but stopped after seeing her wife glare at him.

Her expression softened seeing him calm down. "Don't worry, he probably went to that shop again"

While she's talking, a servant went inside the training hall confirmed her words "Mistress Fang Hai, young master is indeed at the noodle shop at this moment"

"See? Even if something unexpected happens, there are still your subordinates that can protect him" Fang Hai said.

Fang Kou massaged his forehead before nodding in agreement.

...

While they were arguing, a chubby boy is busy slurping soup inside the bowl in front of him. After finishing, he looked up and raised it to an old man cooking noodles.

"Noodle owner, One more! Your noodles are really the best" The chubby boy demanded with an innocent voice.

The old man looked at him and the table filled with numerous bowls. He only smiled and gave him one more. "Fang Tanxiang, you're big appetite still haven't changed just like your body" He teased.

Fang Tanxiang only nodded while eating his noodles.

"Just make sure that your father won't come here and pull you out again" The old man smiled helplessly as he continued to cook more noodles.

After being fully satisfied, Fang Tanxiang burped loudly and thanked the old man before using his chubby body to nimbly get up from his seat.

"I'll come here again noodle owner!"

Just when he was about to head home, he heard a small voice calling him.

"Fang Tanxiang! I heard that you're the strongest among all of our age! My parents said that I have to beat you!"

Fang Tanxiang turned around and saw a little girl a head smaller than him wearing a cocky expression on her face and looking down on him... or at least trying to.

"Stop looking down on me! Match your height to lower than mine!" Seeing that he's taller than her, she felt depressed but quickly came up with an answer.

Without any idea what's happening, he patted her head and said, "Are you lost? That also happened to me. Want me to help you find your parents?"

The girl puffed cheeks and pointed to the person beside her, "I'm not lost! Our servant is here"

Fang Tanxiang looked up and only noticed now that she does have someone with her. As he looked back at her, he saw her fists going towards his face with a speed unbelievable for her age.

He raised up both his hands and easily intercepted both her fists. She tried to get out from his grasp only to result in failure.

He only removed his hands after noticing her fist lossened. After that, he locked both his hands in front of his chest and imitated his father's expression when he's being lectured by him.

"It's not good to punch someone who did nothing to you" He tried to furrow his brows as hard as he could to look more strict.

"But, but my parents said... they said that I have to fight you... uwaaaa!!!" The little girl cried after saying this much.

After seeing her cry, Fang Tanxiang strict expression turned into worry seeing her cry. He patted her head and consoled her, "I'm sorry I did that. But you're not alone! I also cry when my father do that to me"

Beside them, the servant widened her eyes when she saw him easily stopping the punch of their young mistress.

'Although he's taller than her, both of them are 6 years old! Young mistress already opened her dantian and she's known to be the strongest among their age aside from Fang Tanxing. To stop her punch that easily...' Her expression darkened as she realized this.

'If the chieftain finds out that Fang Kou's son have this much talent, it's no doubt that our family head wont have any chance to get the position anymore! I need to eliminate him!' Her eyes released killing intent.

After this thought, she slowly pulled out a needle covered in green liquid from her sleeves.

'This should be enough!'

As she was about to throw the needle, she felt a overbearing pressure pressing down on her. She saw an illusion of a lion the size of a mountain is crushing her with it's foot and wearing a disdainful look on it's eyes. She spurted out blood after her body can't take the pressure anymore.

'This!...' She wiped out the blood on her as she looked around to find where it came from.

"Are you fine? Why is there blood on your clothes?" Her young mistress and Fang Tanxing looked at her worriedly.

"I'm fine, it's just the stain from the food we ate before" When she finished her words, she heard a voice calling out to Fang Tanxing.

"Fang Tanxing! You came and eat here again huh. Bring your fat body home and train already!" From a distance, Fang Kou shouted as soon as he saw Fang Tanxing.

Fang Tanxing chubby face quivered when he heard his father's voice and immediately ran away "Mama! Help me!"

"You're not getting away this time!" Fang Kou swiftly came to his side and carried him on his shoulders. Fang Tanxing only kept on crying out knowing that he doesn't have any strength to resist.

"Greetings Senior Fang Kou" The servant greeted him with a respectful tone despite trembling.

"Oh, you're the servant who's always beside that old geezer. Why are you trembling? Is something wrong?" Fang Kou asked with a warm smile on his face.

But to the servant, that smile looked like the lion from before sneering at her. "I-it's nothing senior, this lowly one and young mistress Yu Xiu will be going now." She then hurriedly went away with Yu Xiu not daring to stay for a second longer.

Fang Kou only glanced at their backs once more before taking Fang Tanxing to their manor.

"You're gonna train with twice the usual weights on your body!"

"No!!...."
