Lin Fan felt a chill run down his back the moment he heard this voice, but he forced himself to stay calm.

He knew that the worst thing to do in this situation was panic because the person holding a weapon to his back was literally holding his life in their hands. If they wanted to kill him, it wouldn't take any effort at all.

After a pause, Lin Fan raised his hand and said, "You can just let me go, I didn't see anything."

There was a chuckle that came from behind him before the same voice said, "Get up and walk forward."

Lin Fan had no choice but to oblige, so he stood up and walked out onto the road.

The person behind him followed him before calling out, "Hey boss, I found a rat here!"

When he called out, the horse carriage that was almost out of sight suddenly stopped and turned around, bringing back all the terrifying looking bandits.

The person that had been behind Lin Fan still had his weapon out, but he was no longer right behind him, putting the tip of the sword against his back.

After all the bandits came back, the person behind Lin Fan said to the boss with a smile, "Boss, look at the rat that I found. What do you think we should do with him?"

The boss' eyes swept over Lin Fan before he said, "Not bad, not bad. We can probably get a pretty penny for this one."

Lin Fan had a good idea of what they meant by that, so he couldn't help saying, "Wait, wait, I was just passing by and I don't mean you any harm. How about you just let me go?"

The boss looked at Lin Fan with a smile and said, "Then how about you pay a toll and I'll let you go."

Lin Fan's expression couldn't help turning ugly as he said, "I don't really have any money on me at this moment. How about I write you an IOU and pay you later?"

The boss shook his head and said, "It seems like it won't work if we don't teach you a lesson first." Then he turned his head to the subordinate he had been talking to before and he said, "Teach him a lesson, but make sure not to scratch his face. He'll sell less if you damage the product."

The subordinate gave a nod before drawing his sword.

The person behind Lin Fan moved out of the way, heading back to the main group, handing control of Lin Fan over to this other man.

The subordinate came over with his sword raised and a wicked smile on his face as he said, "Now, let big brother teach you what happens when you don't know how to appreciate the chances given to you."

Seeing him come forward with his blade raised, Lin Fan knew what was about to happen. However, for someone like him who came from an era that was governed by law, never having seen actual fighting before, he started to panic the moment that he was faced with this situation.

Lin Fan took a step back and said with a panicked look on his face, "Don't come over here."

The subordinate licked his lips and said, "Don't worry, I'll be gentle. We'll have some fun together." After saying this, he suddenly charged forward with the sword raised as if he was about to slash down with it.

Lin Fan saw this and he immediately panicked, moving back as he flailed his arms in the air.

In his moment of panic, one of his flailing arms flew towards the subordinate charging at him in a slapping motion.

The subordinate saw this and revealed a smirk as he easily started moving to dodge it.

While Lin Fan's arm was flying through the air, there was a wisp of blue light that suddenly gathered around his arm. The moment that the wisp of blue light appeared, his hand suddenly started moving faster.

The subordinate was surprised when he first saw it, but that look of surprise quickly turned into a look of shock.

Before he could even react, Lin Fan's hand was already in front of him.

He raised his sword to intercept it, but that didn't help either.

The faint blue light around Lin Fan's arm acted like armour as it collided with the sword, creating the sound of metal clashing with each other. Then in front of the subordinate's shocked eyes, the sword snapped cleanly in half and Lin Fan's hand continued forward, aimed right at the subordinate's face.

It moved so fast that the subordinate couldn't dodge in time, hitting him right across the face before sending him flying through the air like a cut that had its strings cut.

This subordinate continued flying through the air, flying past the bandits and the horse carriage until he slammed into a tree on the side of the road.

The tree cracked, but didn't fall and the subordinate slumped to the ground, creating a pool of blood under him.

There was only silence in the air as all the bandits stared on in shock with wide open mouths. Not a single one of them was able to believe what they just saw.

As for Lin Fan himself, he had closed his eyes in a panic, so he had no idea what had just happened. He had just felt his hand make contact with something.

After a few seconds, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes and turned to look forward.

The first thing he saw were the bandits looking at him in shock. The second thing he saw was the bloody body of the subordinate who had been slammed into the tree.

Looking down at his hand, he saw the blood staining it and he muttered to himself, "Did I do that?"

After taking a few seconds to sort out all the facts, there was a strong uncomfortable feeling that came over Lin Fan. It was nausea mixed with the feeling of being dumped into a bucket of cold water.

As someone who came from the law governed society of Earth, Lin Fan was someone who had never even been in a fight before, much less having killed someone.

The world seemed to spin around him and he couldn't help muttering to himself, "I killed someone…I killed someone…Am I going to go to jail?"

Under his breath, he continued to whisper this again and again before he suddenly felt a splitting pain in his head. It was like his head was a nut and someone was trying to crack it to get to the sweet nut meat inside.

As Lin Fan was slowly undergoing his mental breakdown, there were notifications that suddenly appeared in front of his eyes alone. They were notifications from the system that had detected his abnormal state.

After the final notification, Lin Fan finally felt the pain in his head disappear. At the same time, there was a warm feeling that came from the very core of his chest that quickly increased in temperature, reaching a burning level before disappearing.

When it was all over, Lin Fan suddenly looked up at the bandits who were engaging in their own talk before looking down at the corpse that was lying under the tree.

After staring at that corpse for a long time, he strangely felt calm as if it didn't bother him at all. He couldn't understand why he had been so bothered by the death of this person previously, especially since this person had been trying to hurt him before he died.

But as he had this thought, Lin Fan also felt that something was off.

He looked at all the notifications in front of him and in particular, he focused on the one that showed that he had gained a new skill.

Mental Fortification.

This must be the reason why he had been able to calm down immediately, but Lin Fan also didn't like this feeling since he felt like it had made him lose a part of himself.

He was no longer bothered by the fact that he had just killed someone, rather he found it natural since that person had wanted to hurt him. This wasn't what he had been raised to believe back on Earth, rather this was what he felt that a barbaric person would think…

But he was thinking these thoughts right now…

While Lin Fan was still feeling conflicted about this, he suddenly heard a sound from in front of him.

When he looked up, he saw that there was another blade that was falling down above his head.
