Chapter 503: Chapter 283: Please Show Yourself!
Wang Fang’s pupils suddenly contracted, instinctively turning to look at the Broken Army Swordsman.
The swordsman’s eyes first flashed with a trace of fear, then with a fierce resolve, he prepared to draw his sword.
But at that moment, a cold sensation on his throat plunged him into great panic.
Looking down, indeed, there was a sword on his neck that had appeared without his knowledge.
A woman’s voice reached his ears:
"Don’t move."
The Broken Army Swordsman dared not defy and obediently stood still.
Wang Fang looked at the unexpected appearance of Wu Qianhuan and Chu Qing at the door, taking a deep breath:
"Third Young Master, it’s a great honor to have you here... Please forgive my lack of welcome."
"Oh?"
Chu Qing walked slowly to Wang Fang’s side:
"No longer pretending? After all, we haven’t had the chance to meet face to face; even if you lied about not knowing me, it would be reasonable. Perhaps there’s still room for maneuver."
Wang Fang smiled bitterly:
"In front of a true expert, there’s no deceit. How dare I have such thoughts before the Third Young Master...
"But, to be fair, I don’t know what Lan Shuyi told you to bring you here personally.
"If you, Young Master, wish to punish me without instruction, I’m truly innocent."
"Innocent..."
Chu Qing squinted at Wang Fang and smiled:
"Where does this innocence come from?"
Before Wang Fang could speak, Lan Shuyi grumbled:
"Can you let me down first..."
Chu Qing glanced at him:
"Really useless."
With that, he flicked his finger, causing a soft chime as Lan Shuyi fell to the ground.
Covered in wounds and wincing in pain, he still refuted Chu Qing’s words:
"I was careless for a moment... That old dog usually disguised himself as harmless; I never expected he knew everything.
"Besides, he has planted his people in the Broken Army Division."
"I can’t agree,"
Chu Qing countered:
"The Broken Army Division was already his. Treating them as your own was a fatal mistake.
"Moreover, isn’t caution in dangerous situations essential? You should consider the possibility of your identity being exposed at any sign of something amiss.
"Rather than gambling with your adversary... Can you afford to lose?"
Lan Shuyi was left speechless by Chu Qing’s argument, nodding helplessly and admitting he was right.
Chu Qing’s gaze then fell on Wang Fang:
"So, what is your claim of innocence? Speak up.
"Was it someone else who killed his parents after you were saved by him years ago?
"Or was it not you who said you would lead me like a dog just a moment ago?
"Wang Fang... Lan Shuyi is foolish, but do you think I’m an idiot too?"
His words left Wang Fang and Lan Shuyi looking grim.
Wang Fang laughed heartily:
"Alright, since that’s the case, let’s be frank. Third Young Master, this is my Ding’an Hall headquarters.
"I, Wang Fang, am the Grand Hall Master of Ding’an Hall!
"Not someone to be easily manipulated!"
"Oh?"
Chu Qing smiled:
"Come, show me the remarkable skills of Grand Hall Master Wang."
Wang Fang’s expression sank; he knew that since Chu Qing heard his words earlier, today’s matter couldn’t be resolved easily.
He took a deep breath, suddenly flipped his palm, and directly struck toward Chu Qing.
Lan Shuyi was shocked, mainly because he hadn’t expected Wang Fang to actually have the courage to attack Chu Qing.
He’d always thought of Wang Fang as cautious, the title of Grand Hall Master sounded impressive, but he valued his safety above all else... In such a situation, begging for mercy would be his nature; how could he dare confront Chu Qing?
It’s well known that this Third Young Master is a genuine ruthless character.
He once punched down the Sect Leader of the Vajra Sect, a disciple of the Martial Emperor, Luo Wushuang, and the Prince Xue of the Celestial Evil Cult were no match for him combined.
The glaring battle records are right in front of us... How dare Wang Fang?
Unless he’s confident?
But... where does this confidence come from?
The next moment, Lan Shuyi noticed that Wang Fang’s confidence seemed to stem from his Martial Arts...
Initially, this palm was ordinary, but just before reaching Chu Qing’s face, a wisp of black energy suddenly appeared in Wang Fang’s palm.
"Hmm?"
Chu Qing withdrew his intended strike, instead tilting his head to avoid the incoming blow.
Seeing this, Wang Fang appeared reinvigorated, immediately striking towards Chu Qing with one palm after another, his Palm Momentum continuous and rolling with black energy, which initially gathered only in his palm but gradually spread to both sides of his temples as well.
The two engaged in a match of attack and evade, exchanging over thirty moves within this limited space, before the black energy at Wang Fang’s temples suddenly drifted to his shoulders.
Another mass began to ascend to the top of his head.
By this stage, the power within his techniques grew increasingly robust and overwhelming, each move heavy with force, the black energy possessing the capability to sweep everything away. He assaulted Chu Qing with raging waves, forcing Chu Qing to ’retreat at every turn,’ displaying an incredibly arrogant stance:
"I don’t like to fight, did you really think I’m afraid of you?
"Let me be honest with you; back in the day, I learned the Black Water Infinite Scripture from a master, and have since devoted myself to diligent cultivation. My Martial Arts have long surpassed the ordinary.
"Otherwise, do you think I could transform from a lone bandit to establishing such a vast enterprise as Ding’an Hall?
"Did you really consider me a mere paper tiger?
"Third Young Master... Today I shall defeat you, and elevate Ding’an Hall to new heights!!!"
