Chapter 613: Chapter 0613: Three Experts of the Qin Family

"The person who hit me is called Chu Batian."

Hu Wei replied weakly, "Is this Chu Batian very powerful?"

Although he knew there was an enmity between the sect and the Poison Sect, his own strength did not qualify him to understand the internal affairs of the Poison Sect.

"More than just powerful, this Chu Batian is the second-in-command of the Poison Sect. There were rumors that he has always been at odds with Xin Badao."

Hu Zheng’s expression grew solemn as he explained, "Last time you told me that one of Tang Ming’s bodyguards was called Xin Badao, I thought Tang Ming belonged to Xin Badao’s faction. But today you said the person who hit you is Chu Batian, which means Tang Ming is someone protected by both Xin Badao and Chu Batian."

"So what?"

Hu Wei asked weakly.

"This situation is serious."

Hu Zheng frowned and speculated, "This indicates that Chu Batian and Xin Badao have actually teamed up. Has the Poison Sect already united? Or does Tang Ming hold some special status within the Poison Sect that would cause Xin Badao and Chu Batian to both protect him?"

"The number one and number two figures of a sect protecting Tang Ming at the same time does seem very unusual indeed."

Hu Wei also realized the seriousness of the situation.

"I must report this situation to the sect. You absolutely must not provoke Tang Ming these days. Chu Batian actually protecting Tang Ming personally indicates that this kid is definitely not ordinary, do you understand?"

Hu Zheng warned somewhat impatiently, "I just examined your injuries. Although you coughed up blood, there was no damage to your muscles or bones, nor any signs of poisoning. This is the result of Chu Batian showing mercy. Otherwise, as a five-star martial master, if he really wanted to kill you, you’d be dead already."

"Oh, oh, oh, I understand. I promise not to provoke Tang Ming again before the people from the sect arrive."

Hu Wei nodded repeatedly. He was afraid of dying, but once the people from the sect arrived, it would be different. Since the Poison Sect cared so much about Tang Ming, he figured that the sect’s people would definitely target Tang Ming heavily. Then, seeking revenge would be just as good.

That evening, Liu Gaoze hosted a dinner for Tang Ming and Liu Mengting to express his gratitude to Tang Ming and also hinted that Tang Ming should visit the military special research team if he had time.

Given Tang Ming’s current position, he already had the authority to be informed about the Dark Group’s research projects, and Liu Gaoze hoped Tang Ming would take on work there, which would make his future tasks more convenient.

Tang Ming had no interest in the research projects of the Dark Group and declined Liu Gaoze’s suggestion politely, using the upcoming final exams as an excuse. However, he still made a promise that if any issues arose, he would step in to help resolve them, purely out of respect for Liu Gaoze rather than for any interest in the Dark Group’s benefits.

The school’s final exams were just around the corner. Apart from Tang Ming, who spent his days sleeping, all other students were busy reviewing for the final exams.

Xin Badao and Chu Batian devoted themselves to intense cultivation while mentoring Chen Cang in the Divine Skill.

Just as Songlan City returned to calm, in a valley behind the mountains of the Flowing Cloud Sect.

"Hahaha, I’ve succeeded, I finally succeeded."

A disheveled figure burst out from a cave in the valley, laughing uproariously while waving his hands and striking a large boulder.

With a loud "bang," the boulder shattered under his palm.

"Brother, have you also advanced to the realm of martial master?"

Another disheveled and tattered figure emerged from a different cave, asking with a cheerful laugh.

"Yes! This Chrysanthum Treasure Book is truly powerful, allowing me to break through from a low-level martial artist to a martial master directly. It’s completely defying the natural order," he said.

Qin Haitao stretched out his hand to push back his hair, revealing a face stained with grime, yet still somewhat handsome.

"Indeed, I never expected the Chrysanthemum Treasure Book to be so powerful. Given some time, we brothers will surely become high-level martial masters,"

Qin Haitian repeatedly nodded, saying with anticipation.

"Lack of ambition."

Just then, a sharp, piercing voice rang out.

"Father," Qin Haitian and Qin Haitao quickly bowed to the cave in the center.

"What does a high-level martial master amount to? As long as we can achieve great success with our divine skills, we can definitely break through to a realm above that of a martial master."

Qin Aotian, whose appearance had also become much more handsome, strutted out of the cave delicately with his fingers coiled and moving on tiptoes, his demeanor charming.

Previously, Qin Aotian had been a middle-aged man with a bit of a beard, but now his face was as smooth as white jade, his skin fair, the former stubble completely gone, replaced by skin as white as mutton fat, delicate enough to be broken by blowing on it.

At this time, the three members of the Qin family shook off their previous disgraceful and decadent demeanor, regaining their past confidence and elegance, although their behavior contained a hint of charm, especially Qin Aotian, whose voice had even become androgynous.

Initially, when the three of the Qin family were brought to the Flowing Cloud Sect by Yao Buji, who promised to teach them a supreme cultivation technique, the three were thrilled.

But when they saw the so-called Chrysanthemum Treasure Book actually required castration first, they were dumbfounded.

Under the threat and temptation from Yao Buji, the three thought that since they couldn’t use their manhood anymore, if the cultivation technique was really that powerful, it might be worth a try to cultivate it.

Thus, with an experimental mindset, the three members of the Qin family began to cultivate the Chrysanthemum Treasure Book, unexpectedly finding the technique extremely powerful despite its bizarre requirements.

In less than a month, not only had Qin Aotian, whose cultivation was previously crippled, recovered, but he had also increased his strength and broke through to the realm of a three-star martial master in one go, Qin Haitian soared from an eight-star martial artist to a four-star martial master, and even the previously weakest Qin Haitao had now leapt to the realm of a martial master.

"Father is right, having paid such a tremendous price to cultivate this Chrysanthemum Treasure Book, we can definitely become supreme powerhouses in the martial arts world. When the time comes, not to mention seeking revenge against Tang Ming, dominating the martial arts world will surely be no problem," Qin Haitian repeatedly nodded, his eyes full of ambition and greed.

"Giggle, naturally, but remember not to let anyone from the Flowing Cloud Sect know our strength for now,"

Qin Aotian covered his mouth and chuckled lightly, solemnly reminding.

"Dad, why is that?"

Qin Haitao looked puzzledly at Qin Aotian, weakly asking, "After all, we were able to regain our cultivation thanks to the Flowing Cloud Sect bestowing this cultivation technique upon us, so why worry about them knowing?"

"You know nothing."

Qin Aotian gave Qin Haitao a flirtatious look and analyzed, "Do you really think the Flowing Cloud Sect is something good? These guys knew the Holy Yang Great Rejuvenation Pill had become ineffective but still sold it to us, not only swindling a lot of money from us but also giving us false hope."

"Yes, yes, yes, what they did was really shady,"

Qin Haitian kept nodding. That affair had truly been aggravating.
