Chapter 366: Chapter 0366: Senior Brother of the Qin Family

In the convalescence ward of the hospital, Qin Aotian heard the news of the old Zhou patriarch’s critical illness and immediately burst into cursing:

"This old fox really wants to scheme against our Qin Family. Despite his own failing health, he incites us to go against Tang Ming, it’s too insidious."

"Fortunately, our father is extremely intelligent and did not fall for it, or else with Zhou Zhen, that old fox, already out of the picture, if we really clashed with Tang Ming, you and Ma Tong would have been the main force. Who knows how Tang Ming might have bullied us by then!"

Qin Haitao nodded continuously, flattering with praise.

"Hmph, how could I possibly fall for such petty tricks?" Qin Aotian snorted coldly and stood up to get dressed.

"Are you being discharged from the hospital?" Qin Haitao quickly offered to help.

"Yes, the Sect has replied. My senior brother Liang Xuwang will arrive in Songlan City today, and I must personally go to the station to greet him."

As Qin Aotian dressed, he spoke coldly, "Once my senior brother arrives, whether it is Tang Ming, the Zhou Family, or the Flying Wolf Organization, they will all pay the price for their actions."

Ma Family villa.

Upon receiving the news of old Master Zhou’s critical illness, Ma Tong couldn’t help but burst into cursing. He then immediately called for a family meeting, gathering all the second and third generations of the Ma Family, and solemnly warned everyone that from now on, they absolutely must not provoke Tang Ming.

Unlike Qin Aotian, Old Master Ma Tong saw things more for the long term. Although he had suffered losses at Tang Ming’s hands several times, his current thoughts were not of revenge but of not offending Tang Ming any further.

With the precedent set by the Zhou Family’s downfall, Old Master Ma Tong realized that their demise was entirely due to offending Tang Ming, thus the Ma Family must avoid making the same mistake.

At noon, Qin Aotian, accompanied by Qin Haitao and Qin Haitian, prepared a banquet in a luxurious private room at the renowned Island Hotel in Songlan City to entertain a middle-aged man in plain hemp clothes with a buzz cut.

This middle-aged man had eyebrows like swords and eagle-like eyes, emitting a cold aura that commanded an awe-inspiring presence, making one feel that he should not be looked at directly. This person, named Liang Xuwang, was a One-star Martial Master and Qin Aotian’s senior brother.

Contrary to Qin Aotian’s expectations, besides sending Liang Xuwang, the Sect also sent two additional people, two youths with similar looks and about the same age as Qin Haitian.

"Senior brother, I truly feel bad for having you come all this way."

After taking his seat, Qin Aotian promptly raised his glass to Liang Xuwang, saying, "These are my two sons, the elder, Qin Haitian, and the younger, Qin Haitao. Hasten and pay your respects to Uncle Master Liang."

"Disciple pays respects to Uncle Master Liang."

The Qin brothers quickly stood up and respectfully saluted Liang Xuwang.

"We’re all from the same Sect, no need for such formalities," Liang Xuwang waved his hand, introducing, "These are my two disciples, Liang Cheng and Liang Shi, a pair of twins. They are quite effective when they attack together. Go ahead and greet Uncle Master Qin."

"We greet Uncle Master Qin."

Liang Cheng and Liang Shi sat still in their chairs without standing up, greeting Qin Aotian with a nod and a perfunctory manner.

Seeing this scene, the countenance of the Qin brothers turned sour, finding the other’s attitude to be extremely rude.

"Ha ha, very good, very good. Senior brother’s two esteemed disciples are indeed extraordinary. Following senior brother for training this time, their cultivation is sure to advance another level," Qin Aotian laughed heartily, not the least bit concerned. In the Sect, he was considered a disciple who started his training later in life, which is why he did not occupy a high status and was accustomed to such treatment.

"Junior brother, what trouble have you encountered exactly? Although you did not start learning in the Sect from childhood, you’re still one of us. How could you suffer setbacks in this mundane city?"

After the pleasantries, Liang Xuwang looked at Qin Aotian with dissatisfaction and chided, "You’ve lost face for our sect. Master is very displeased with this matter."

"Hey, let’s not even mention it." Qin Aotian sighed helplessly and said in frustration,

"Everything was going pretty well, but recently in Songlan City, a fellow named Tang Ming popped up..."

After that, Qin Aotian exaggeratedly retold the grievances between the Qin Family and Tang Ming.

"A martial master not even twenty years old, are you sure you’re not joking?"

After listening to Qin Aotian’s story, Liang Xuwang frowned skeptically. If the other person were really a martial master under twenty years of age, he would definitely be considered a genius.

"That kid isn’t just a martial master, his Gang Qi is black, and he knows how to poison. Otherwise, do you think I would have suffered a loss?"

Qin Aotian said with a pained expression on his face.

"So it seems he is indeed a tough character to deal with." Liang Xuwang’s expression grew solemn.

"Between the two of us, handling an ordinary One-star Martial Master should be no problem, but dealing with someone who has colored Gang Qi is not so simple. However, rest assured, my two disciples are Nine-star Martial Artists. Their combined attack can reach the level of a Half-step Martial Master, so together we should still stand a chance."

"This..." Hearing this, Qin Aotian showed an embarrassed face and unconsciously tightened his legs.

"Brother, let’s not go after Tang Ming just yet."

His injury down there hadn’t healed, and it hurt even to walk, let alone fight.

"Why? Don’t you trust me?" Liang Xuwang frowned displeasedly.

"It’s not that I don’t trust you, it’s that I’m not able to make a move right now."

Qin Aotian sheepishly whispered a few words into Liang Xuwang’s ear.

"I see!" Liang Xuwang glanced at Qin Aotian’s crotch, nodded, and said,

"Then we’ll deal with the Zhou Family and the Flying Wolf Organization first. Once your injury heals, we can then take care of that Tang Ming."

"We’ll start with the Zhou Family then." Qin Aotian nodded and explained,

"I had Xiao Tian investigate the Flying Wolf Organization, but unfortunately, that organization is rather mysterious, we still don’t have accurate information. So we can only start with the Zhou Family."

"In that case, after we finish eating, let’s strike the Zhou Family." Liang Xuwang said with a murderous aura.

"Easy there, since brother has arrived, the Zhou Family can be taken down at any time, there’s no rush. Moreover, old man Zhou is critically ill; letting him live a few more days won’t matter." Qin Aotian laughed, implying further,

"Brother, along with the two nephews, have had a tiring journey. You should rest well first. Let me take you to enjoy the nightlife of the bustling city before we discuss dealing with the Zhou Family."

"Hahaha, only disciple brother truly understands me! There are too many rules in our sect, and such opportunities to relax are rare!" Liang Xuwang laughed, understanding the hint, and raised his glass,

"Then let the Zhou Family live a few more days. We’ll pick a time when there are many people around, and in front of everyone, we’ll crush them under our feet. This way, junior brother’s Family can regain its prestige.

"Cheers."

Qin Aotian shared this sentiment, though the news of Old Master Zhou’s critical illness had spread, he was not certain whether the information was true or false, so he wanted to observe for a while.
