Chapter 2227 - 1721: Brother-in-Law Breaks Through!
Third update, asking for subscriptions and votes~~~~...
The next few days were quite calm and peaceful...
Qin Fang was also quite leisurely, spending time with Chu Yunxuan, Lin Qian, and Xu Jiao, eating, drinking, and having fun around Jiangzhou... They even went to nearby cities for a stroll, it was quite relaxing.
However, Qin Fang was constantly monitoring the situation in Jiangzhou...
For instance, the movements around Tang Cheng...
With Qin Fang's warning, Tang Cheng stopped cultivating that technique, but he's not intentionally suppressing the surge of True Qi in him. It's believed that in the next few days, he can break through to the Grandmaster level.
Once Tang Cheng breaks through, the mysterious expert should appear... Then it will be time for Qin Fang to resolve this trouble and hidden danger for Tang Cheng.
Then there's the situation with Chen Lin...
Things are relatively calm around Chen Lin, he's rarely seen recently, as if he disappeared from Jiangzhou... However, Qin Fang knows that he's busy with some secret matters along with the other members of the Six Major Families, and it seems to have reached a crucial moment, hence the rare appearances.
The elite team, specialized in dirty work, which Qin Fang managed to acquire, has been secretly monitoring Chen Lin... However, Chen Lin has several experts protecting him and keeps a low profile, so there's no suitable opportunity for assassination.
Tony once tried and shot Chen Lin in the arm... But it was just a minor scare with only a skin scratch, no substantial damage, yet it made Chen Lin even more cautious.
Then there's the movement from the Devil's Hand side...
Compared to Charlie and their elite team, the other teams of Devil's Hand are very stealthy. Chen Da and others researched for a long time but only discovered a few elite teams, as for the true core guard of Devil's Hand, it seems they haven't come to Jiangzhou.
And Charlie's elite team hasn't received any mission orders, they've only been instructed to stay stationed in Jiangzhou... Because of this, Qin Fang finds it difficult to know the true purpose of Devil's Hand's visit.
"These people, each one is more mysterious than the other..."
Qin Fang had a couple of leisurely days but started to feel restless, if not for the unfinished business here, he would've headed back to Ninghai with Chu Yunxuan and the others... Tang Feifei and the others are about to return from their trip, and he misses them.
However, these leisurely days soon came to an end.
"Qin Fang, hurry over, I can't hold it down anymore..."
One day, while Qin Fang was contemplating what to do with the Golden Tower, a call from Tang Cheng came, filled with Tang Cheng's anxious voice, followed by the explosion of Tang Cheng's phone due to the uncontrollable surge of True Qi.
"Talk about Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrives!"
Qin Fang was just thinking about it, and it materialized quickly, leaving him somewhat helpless.
Thus, Qin Fang began his journey towards Tang Cheng's location while also calling a few people over...
The priest trials in Japan are still ongoing, but Qin Zi's strength is already strong enough, reaching the Grandmaster-level Peak, possibly about to step into Great Grandmaster level, so naturally, no protection is needed, and Qin Fang's good brothers have returned.
However, Monk Wukong has returned to Shaolin and can't come back for now, so he can't help;
Ji Xiang also returned to the Golden Triangle, seemingly something important happened there, requiring him to sit for the Family, and thus cannot help;
Which leaves only Song Qingshan and the old man Hattori Sanzo... But they are both Grandmaster-level tier experts, each with their own secret skills, and can help.
Then there's Lin Qian and Xu Jiao who were also called in, along with Qin Fang himself, and Tang Cheng who is about to break through, forming a team of six Grandmaster-level tier experts, including Qin Fang, who is even more formidable than someone at the Grandmaster-level Peak.
"If even with this we can't handle him... Then we'll have to use the Godslaying Worm!"
Despite Qin Fang speaking lightly to Tang Cheng, Qin Fang knows the mysterious person's strength is terrifying, though not at Great Grandmaster level, their capabilities might not be inferior to a typical Great Grandmaster level expert.
Qin Fang prepares this group to join forces for an attack, intending to surround and eliminate the opponent.
But if the opponent's strength surpasses theirs... Then Qin Fang can only use his trump card!
Currently, Qin Fang has three Godslaying Worms, having used up two, only one is left... If not for Tang Cheng being Qin Fang's brother-in-law, he wouldn't use this last card!
Tang Cheng plans to break through to the Grandmaster-level at a mountain in the south of Jiangzhou.
Qin Fang isn't unfamiliar with this place, having killed many here before... On a rainy night, Qin Fang slaughtered countless people, the blood completely dyed the rainwater red.
But this time, Qin Fang isn't here for sightseeing but to kill!
"This place is great, perfect for an ambush!"
The location is also ideal, it's a relatively secluded valley, surrounded by either trees or bamboo forest, which makes it excellent for hiding... With Qin Fang's stealth skills, once he goes in, even a Great Grandmaster Level expert would hardly notice his presence.
Before long, the reinforcements Qin Fang called for all arrived. After a brief exchange of greetings, Qin Fang assigned each person their hiding spot, and everyone immediately took their positions, awaiting the mysterious person's arrival.
"Brother Tang, leave this to us. You go ahead with your breakthrough..."
To ensure Tang Cheng's breakthrough was successful and without danger, Qin Fang specially took out a few drops of Golden Dragon Saliva for him, to prevent a shortage of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi at that critical moment... and also to enhance Tang Cheng's life potential.
Regarding that bizarre cultivation technique, although Qin Fang vaguely guessed something about it, he was still worried about unexpected events, so the Golden Dragon Saliva served as a backup precaution!
"Take this as well, but don't use it unless it's a truly critical moment..."
Aside from the Golden Dragon Saliva, Qin Fang secretly handed something else to Tang Cheng, quietly advising him.
"What is this?"
Tang Cheng was surprised when he looked at the item in his hand. It looked like a metal tube, yet it felt incredibly heavy and cold in his grip, with a vaguely lurking sense of deadly threat, prompting him to ask.
"Storm Pear Blossom, one of the Ten Great Hidden Weapons of the Tang Sect..."
Qin Fang glanced around before quietly informing Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng's skills were undoubtedly the weakest among everyone present, and he hardly had any combat experience; he would indeed become the biggest flaw during battle... Qin Fang couldn't allow the mysterious person to succeed, thus ensuring Tang Cheng had the power to protect himself was necessary.
Since Tang Cheng's personal strength was insufficient, he could only rely on external tools...
Having experienced Storm Pear Blossom's power firsthand, Qin Fang knew that although the mysterious figure might be formidable, unless they reached the Great Grandmaster Level and possessed an extraordinary defensive Protective Gang Qi, they wouldn't withstand Storm Pear Blossom's attack!
The fine needles from Storm Pear Blossom were specifically designed to pierce Protective True Qi and had some destructive power even against Protective Gang Qi... When thousands of Cowhair Fine Needles strike a person, they'll be crippled if not killed.
"Wow~~~ Good stuff, how did you manage to get this, kid?"
Ever since he started practicing martial arts, Tang Cheng had gradually come into contact with this chaotic Martial World.
He naturally knew that the Ten Great Hidden Weapons of the Tang Sect were secret treasures, always held by Tang Sect experts, never lost... Yet now, Qin Fang openly presented a Storm Pear Blossom, leaving Tang Cheng astonished and shaken.
"Enough with the useless talk; your True Qi is about to go berserk, completely uncontrollable..."
Qin Fang had no time to explain how he acquired Tang Sect's Storm Pear Blossom, as he clearly sensed Tang Cheng's True Qi showing signs of losing control. If he didn't attempt the breakthrough now, all efforts could be wasted, potentially putting Tang Cheng himself in danger.
Tang Cheng didn't dawdle, hiding the Storm Pear Blossom by his side in a very concealed manner, while Qin Fang retreated into the forest, blending in.
According to Qin Fang's estimations, the mysterious person would appear at the moment Tang Cheng successfully breaks through...
Only at this moment would Tang Cheng's True Qi be abundant yet not solidified, making it easy to siphon; but as Tang Cheng's True Qi consolidates further, the likelihood of siphoning decreases significantly.
Furthermore, once Tang Cheng's True Qi fully stabilizes, the mysterious person's plan would fail completely...
Therefore, the mysterious person would definitely come!
While unsure of the mysterious person's current location, Qin Fang knew that they would find a way here!
"Roar~~~"
Just as Qin Fang finished hiding, he heard Tang Cheng let out a roar unlike a human sound, his True Qi boiling like hot water, becoming entirely agitated and turbulent, his entire being resembling a volatile bomb threatening to explode everyone nearby.
Nevertheless, Tang Cheng wasn't in a rush...
Qin Fang and others had already taught him various breakthrough experiences. Though it was his first attempt, he could be considered "experienced."
The agitated True Qi was fully unleashed, circulating and growing stronger, and then... swiftly absorbed into his body, beginning the assault on the barrier.
"Looks like Brother Tang's success rate shouldn't be an issue!"
Qin Fang vigilantly monitored from afar, noting the robustness of the True Qi mass, realizing Tang Cheng's breakthrough was proceeding smoothly, naturally easing his mind.
The only concern left was that mysterious individual, "I wonder when they'll show up?" (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
