Yan Zi, feeling helpless, said, "What are you worried about?"

Su Fan honestly replied, "Yagyu Jyugong's swordsmanship may not be that formidable."

"But his movement technique, especially his skill in escaping, is quite extraordinary."

"Even if we duel in Yang City this time, I'm still worried that this old man might run away."

Su Fan was very confident; he wasn't afraid he wasn't a match for Yagyu Jyugong, only worried that Yagyu Jyugong might escape again.

Such a thing was not impossible.

Unless he could kill Yagyu Jyugong swiftly and decisively in the arena, Yagyu Jyugong might escape.

The Japanese already have little concern for reputation, and Yagyu Jyugong cares even less about it.

Upon hearing this, Yan Zi couldn't help but give Su Fan a pat: "Why do you, like others, enjoy mocking Yagyu Jyugong so much?"

To Yan Zi, it seemed that Su Fan was joking with her.

Even though she didn't often browse the dark web, she knew that Yagyu Jyugong had earned the nickname of Swimming Sword Saint there.

Su Fan grasped Yan Zi's round and soft little watermelon in his hands and gave it a squeeze, then said:

"I'm not mocking him; I'm genuinely worried he'll run away."

"When I duel with him, you have to keep an eye on him."

"If he escapes, you'll need to step in and stop him."

Yan Zi's pretty face showed a strange expression, but she still nodded.

In the following days, many skilled martial artists arrived in Yang City.

However, after entering Yang City, all these martial artists were very well-behaved and didn't cause trouble.

They didn't come to Yang City to cause trouble, but to see the spectacle.

The news of Yagyu Jyugong's second life-and-death duel with Su Fan spread far and wide.

Martial artists from all over the world hurried to Yang City, not wanting to miss this unique grand battle.

Many martial artists even announced on the dark web that if Yagyu Jyugong was defeated and tried to escape, they would help Su Fan stop him.

Some martial artists had already arrived in Yang City and went to the martial arts hall of the Yang City Martial Arts Association.

They were sure that there would be no escape for Yagyu Jyugong this time.

Because there wasn't even a river nearby, let alone the sea.

No matter how good his swimming was, there was no use for it here.

If he were defeated, his fate would be sealed.

Of course, Yagyu Jyugong being confident enough to come to Yang City to challenge Su Fan

means he has enough confidence and certain assurance.

During the days he vanished, his abilities might have significantly improved.

This time, it might not be Yagyu Jyugong who dies, but Su Fan!

As time went by, an acquaintance of Su Fan sought him out prior to his impending duel with Yagyu Jyugong.

The person wasn't a stranger; it was Bing Po from the Dragon Group.

After arranging to meet with Su Fan, Bing Po still asked Su Fan to discuss things in the car.

Su Fan didn't refuse and went straight into Bing Po's car.

While driving, Bing Po said:

"The Dragon Group won't prohibit Yagyu Jyugong from coming to Yang City to duel you."

"However, after Yagyu Jyugong enters the country, the Dragon Group can support you with intelligence."

"If you want to ambush Yagyu Jyugong on his way, the success rate is very high."

In the past, Su Fan had a habit of preemptively striking many of his adversaries.

Upon learning that someone was coming for him, he would attack first, catching the opponent off guard.

So Bing Po thought that Su Fan might want to make a move on Yagyu Jyugong this time as well.

But Bing Po and the Dragon Group were mistaken this time.

At least for this action concerning Yagyu Jyugong, Su Fan had no intention of preemptively striking.

On one hand, he was too lazy to make a trip.

Yan Zi was his woman, so that's one thing.

But Bai Zongze, Wu Yunzhou, and Li Guanyun were his allies, not his subordinates.

It would obviously be inappropriate to constantly take them out to kill.

On the other hand, if he could once again defeat Yagyu Jyugong fair and square, his reputation and influence would further expand.

Reputation, clearly, is very useful for business development.
