Chapter 495: Chapter 495: Lin City!

Now, the summer has silently passed, and autumn is on the horizon.

Without notice, a breeze has already swept through the Tang Family’s old residence.

After yesterday’s revelries, the Tang Family’s home appeared in disarray; the servants had risen early to start cleaning up.

Last night, Tang Zhong and Jiang Weiwei had been admiring the moon until midnight, parting reluctantly to return to their bedrooms. Even Tang Zhong, the Martial Arts Grandmaster, was somewhat stirred, tossing and turning, unable to sleep; only just before dawn did he finally drift off. However, as a Grandmaster, sleep was not particularly important for Tang Zhong. He rose early, still refreshed, and stretched with a yawn as he stepped out of his bedroom, looking over the Tang Family’s estate.

The feeling was very good.

He had finally returned to the Tang Family, accompanied by his father!

Now, the greatest regret for Tang Zhong was his parents’ inability to speak; it remained the most pressing issue.

From yesterday’s discovery, Tang Zhong learned that blood energy could kill as well as heal.

Someday, Tang Zhong believed he could use his own power to construct new tongues for his parents.

Just as Tang Zhong understood life, blood could create miracles, which might be life’s greatest secret.

But with his current strength, he was not capable enough; he needed to become stronger.

With the mysterious power of the Dragon Elephant force within him, Tang Zhong believed he could achieve that step in the shortest time possible.

What he needed now was time.

When he had no more worldly concerns, he would take Jiang Weiwei to a secluded forest to spend the rest of their days together.

Remembering Li Linglong’s words that his mentor had summoned him, Tang Zhong thought it time to pay a visit to this elder he had never met, an elder who made him feel quite different.

Tomorrow, then!

Every morning, exercising is the most important thing!

Standing in the courtyard, Tang Zhong threw punches, breaking the silence with the sound of cleaving air.

In Xuan Country, there is the national martial art, including techniques like Dragon Tiger Fist, White Crane Spreading Wings; now it seems, they should all be considered under the category of Martial Arts.

After performing a set of punches, Tang Zhong felt even more invigorated, his breath sinking deep into his abdomen.

It was then he stopped the punches, but suddenly, he felt someone watching him.

Turning around, he saw Fang Susu standing in a corner with an embarrassed expression.

In an instant, their eyes met.

Fang Susu, like prey spotting a tiger, turned to leave.

"Why have you come?" Tang Zhong asked.

Just as Fang Susu had taken a step, she stopped and turned back, looking at Tang Zhong with a smile and replied, "I’ve come to see Mr. Tang... your punches are truly ferocious!"

"You’ve come at the right time, I just happen to have something to ask you!" Tang Zhong said.

Indeed, he had something to ask. Fang Susu had previously given Tang Zhong a piece of Jade Blood, and he discovered the blood belonged to someone from the Martial Arts Peak. Hence, Tang Zhong was convinced that Fang Susu was no ordinary person.

"What is it?" Fang Susu asked, looking somewhat nervous.

"How long have you been with me?" Tang Zhong inquired.

"Half a year now, Mr. Tang!" Fang Susu hesitated to speak but chose to hold back.

"It’s been that long, and you are also from Xuan Country. Now that you’ve returned to your homeland, you should go back as well. I’ve said before, I grant you your freedom, you can leave!" Tang Zhong said.

"I... yes Mr. Tang!" Fang Susu nodded.

"By the way, where does your family live?" Tang Zhong continued to inquire.

"My family lives... they live in Lin City to the southeast!" Fang Susu replied.

"Good, I’ll send someone to take you back immediately. You’ve been away from Xuan Country for so many years, your family must miss you very much!" Tang Zhong said.

Upon mentioning her family, Fang Susu’s entire body trembled, and in that moment, her pupils clearly moistened.

"Thank... Thank you, Mr. Tang, I can go back by myself!"

Tang Zhong naturally noticed the change in Fang Susu, the woman before him was definitely hiding something!

"No, I will personally take you!" Tang Zhong declared.

He remembered that had it not been for Fang Susu rescuing him when he instantly moved from Xuanjing City to Si Bo Island, he probably would have frozen to death by now.

So, at this moment, Tang Zhong felt grateful toward Fang Susu.

"Take... take me?" Fang Susu exclaimed in shock.

"Yes, and also, your family should know about Martial Arts cultivation, right?" Tang Zhong continued to ask, choosing to probe as Fang Susu remained silent.

Just then, Fang Susu’s pupils shrank suddenly, looking at Tang Zhong. She knew Tang Zhong’s true identity by now and didn’t want to hide anymore, so she nodded. But whatever had happened to the Fang Family, she was determined not to speak of it. Remembering what her family had gone through, she could only clench her fists tightly.

However, in response to Tang Zhong’s question, Fang Susu nodded.

"He must be an important figure. The Blood Jade I got last time was excellent, and it must belong to an important member of your family. Since I have received something from him, I should help him!" Tang Zhong said with a smile.

This is the basic principle of being a person.

Fang Susu’s entire body trembled, "Thank you, Mr. Tang..."

"We shall set off today!" declared Tang Zhong.

Some matters should be dealt with swiftly.

In his life, Tang Zhong ultimately did not wish to owe anyone anything.

"Yes..." Fang Susu nodded.

After saying goodbye to Jiang Weiwei and telling her that he had to leave for a bit,

Tang Zhong took Fang Susu and left the Tang Family residence.

According to Fang Susu, her home was in Lin City, so the two decided to take a bus there.

Although planes were faster, they required too many documents.

Fang Susu had just returned to Xuan Country and did not have everything she needed.

Moreover, the bus ride was comfortable, and there weren’t many people on board.

The two of them then boarded a bus going from Xuanjing City to Lin City.

On the bus, Tang Zhong sat still, like a monk in meditation—he was cultivating.

The first layer of the Blood Soul Transformation was just one step away from perfection. Once mastered, his physical body would become incredibly strong. Now, even if Tang Zhong stood there unguarded and was struck by a Grandmaster with all his might, he would remain unharmed.

And once this transformation was mastered, it would be time for the Soul Transformation!

Tang Zhong was somewhat looking forward to it!

Fang Susu stayed by his side, occasionally staring at Tang Zhong, wanting to speak, but she held her tongue.

Indeed, her home was in Lin City, and in Tang Zhong’s presence, she had little say. So, she mentioned Lin City, but when she thought about her family’s situation, she restrained herself.

She knew Mr. Tang was a Grandmaster, but she had seen Martial Arts Grandmasters before.

Allowing Mr. Tang to join her on an adventure was something Fang Susu did not want to witness; she felt she should not return to that family, but now, she was getting closer and closer to it.

The bus smoothly traveled on.

Suddenly, there came a contemptuous voice from nearby.

"Beauty..." Four or five men appeared beside them, leering at Fang Susu.

"Look over here; we’re right here!"

A thin man with pockmarked face leered at Fang Susu unblinkingly.

Fang Susu heard nothing at all.

Right now, she had no mood to deal with these situations; what she faced was how to take Tang Zhong to Lin City without intending to bring him to her family, figuring out a way to send him away.

But the nearby men were instantly displeased.

Fang Susu was a beauty, especially with her refined style, far surpassing ordinary gaudiness.

Since boarding the bus, she became a landscape, with men aboard staring at her.

But when she first got on the bus, she did not expose anything unusual.

However, after a few glances, they noticed that the man beside the beauty did not respond at all, and seeing her worried look, they were seized with crooked thoughts.

"Heng Ge, what should we do?" one corpulent man asked a pockmarked man among the group.

"What else? Judging by the ages of those two, they must be college sweethearts, and the man hasn’t paid attention to the girl the whole trip. Seems like they’re having a fight, and she’s clearly upset. This is a great chance for us! Such tender skin and bones, a college girl too; we brothers should have our fun!" the pockmarked man said, drooling at the thought.

"Makes sense, Heng Ge!" the fat man agreed.

"We’re almost entering Lin City’s territory. It’s time to make a move!" Said the man called Heng Ge, as he slowly rose and walked towards Tang Zhong and Fang Susu, barked directly at Tang Zhong with his eyes closed, "Kid, give up your seat. The girl next to you, she’s with us now!"

Behind him, four or five men stood up as well.

Looking intently at Tang Zhong.

To them, these college students were nothing but trash; just an intimidation would scare the man senseless, making him obediently leave. After all, they had done this sort of thing often. The last time a male student was escorted by them, they’d used the same tactic to scare him into submission, his girlfriend offered up to them, and what a thrill that was. This time would be no different.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened.

The man who had been keeping his eyes shut all this time suddenly spoke coldly, "Scram!"
