Chapter 358: Chapter 358: The Wang Family’s Sea-Calming Divine Needle
Wang Dong’s plan to deal with Fang Bai was to have someone drug him with a substance he’d obtained from a friend called "Soft Bone Powder," which was said to render even the most formidable individuals completely weak and powerless.
Wang Dong had anticipated that once Fang Bai consumed the "Soft Bone Powder," he would lose his ability to fight, and the men Wang Dong had sent would then be able to beat him into a state of helplessness.
But what Wang Dong never expected was that his scheme would end in failure.
"Turns out the people I found were all useless; not only did they fail to teach Fang Bai a lesson, but they also vanished collectively!"
With a worried look on his face, Wang Dong said, "Mom, I suspect that the people I sent out have been caught by Fang Bai, and perhaps he has already learned from them that I’m targeting him. Fang Bai is an Ancient Martial master; what should I do if he comes seeking revenge?"
"What are you afraid of? Our illustrious Wang Family is not intimidated by a poor kid."
Although Jiang Fenglian also knew of Fang Bai’s capabilities, she genuinely did not believe he’d dare to confront the Wang Family alone, contemptuously saying, "One can hardly fight against the many hands. I refuse to believe that, no matter how skilled he is at martial arts, one person can overcome the dozens or hundreds of masters in our Wang Family when it comes down to a fight."
Wang Dong sighed and said, "Mom, if he is set on revenge, it will be impossible to guard against! You’ve seen how formidable he is; not many of our family’s fighters can match him! If I fall into his hands, I’m sure to die!"
"So, what do you suggest?"
Jiang Fenglian thought her son made some valid points. If Fang Bai, with his great strength, were to focus solely on her son, bent on revenge, then even assigning a bodyguard would not guarantee safety.
"There are two methods that could solve this problem for good."
"And what are those methods?"
"First, we can use firearms!"
A fierce gleam crossed Wang Dong’s eyes as he declared, "No matter how talented, one is still vulnerable to the kitchen knife. Fang Bai may be strong, but he’s made of flesh and blood. I refuse to believe he can withstand bullets!"
"Doing that... If it leads to a fatality, won’t it be difficult to handle afterward?"
Jiang Fenglian felt that if guns were used against Fang Bai and it resulted in a death, it would be hard to settle the matter, especially if it were traced back, potentially causing significant damage to the Wang Family’s reputation.
"I can anonymously hire someone from a killer organization to take care of it! It’s not necessarily about taking his life—we can cripple his arms and legs, ensuring he’ll never be able to threaten me again. Even if it fails, no one will know it was my doing, so there won’t be any impact on the Wang Family’s reputation!"
As Wang Dong spoke, he grew increasingly confident that this method was viable to handle Fang Bai, declaring, "Mom, Dad once said that dealing with an enemy requires ruthlessness and a willingness to do anything necessary, otherwise you will ultimately suffer at their hands! The conflict between Fang Bai and me is irreconcilable. If I don’t cripple him, there’s a chance he might cripple me!"
Jiang Fenglian, who only wanted to discipline Fang Bai and never considered taking his life, saw the murderous light in her son’s eyes and truly worried he might commit murder, asked with a frown, "What’s the second method?"
"The second method is to have Grandfather deal with Fang Bai."
When Wang Dong mentioned "Grandfather," a sense of awe flashed in his expression. He said, "Fang Bai’s strength far exceeds that of a beginning-stage Profound Level Martial Artist. Perhaps only with Grandfather’s personal intervention can he be subdued!"
Wang Dong’s grandfather, Wang Huashan, was a member of the "Dragon Guard" of the Xuan Group and possessed mid-stage Profound Level Martial Artist strength. Within the Secular Ancient Martial World, he was considered a top-notch expert, the so-called "Sea-Calming Divine Needle" of the Wang Family.
However, Wang Huashan was already in his eighties, leading a life of seclusion and devoted to cultivation, having not engaged others in combat for many years. It was uncertain if they could persuade him to act.
"As long as Grandfather is willing to step in, Fang Bai will definitely be no match. Then, all Grandfather needs to do is cripple Fang Bai’s meridians, and I’ll never have to worry about him again."
Wang Dong concluded.
"This..."
Jiang Fenglian spoke with a troubled face, "Given your grandfather’s temper, I’m afraid he might not take the lead for you... How about this, I’ll talk to your father first, and then have him persuade your grandfather. This way, there might be a better chance of success!"
"That could work."
"Remember this, stay at home and behave yourself these next few days to avoid any accidents!"
"I know. I won’t step out until this issue is resolved, even if it kills me! My life is too precious!"
Around six in the evening, Wang Jingzhong, the Family Head of the Wang Family, returned home from work. Just as he entered the villa’s living room, he saw his wife sitting rigidly on the sofa.
"Feng Lian, is something the matter?"
Having been married for many years, Wang Jingzhong understood his wife very well. He knew that her sitting there rigidly meant she had something to discuss with him.
"Jingzhong, you must be tired after a busy half-day, right? Come, sit down and rest a bit, I’ll pour you a cup of tea..."
Jiang Fenglian, with a smile plastered on her face, urged her husband to sit on the sofa, personally brewed him a cup of tea, and handed it to him. Then she stood behind him and gently started massaging his shoulders and neck.
Despite being fiery and belligerent like a shrew in front of others, Jiang Fenglian was always elegant and reserved in front of her husband, very much the gentle and virtuous wife.
Noticing the extra care from his wife today, Wang Jingzhong sensed that something unusual must be afoot. Catching her hand, he said irritably, "We’ve been married for so long. If you have something to say, just speak plainly. There’s no need to beat around the bush with me."
Jiang Fenglian took the opportunity to sit next to her husband, sighed deeply, and said, "Jingzhong, do you remember Fang Bai, whom I mentioned to you before?"
"You mean the Fang Bai who hit you and was involved with the Ye Family girl in an unclear manner?"
Wang Jingzhong raised an eyebrow and asked in a stern voice.
"Yes, that’s him."
"I have already ordered an investigation into him. Once I have the results, I will give you and our daughter an explanation..."
Wang Jingzhong stopped mid-sentence upon seeing the odd expression on his wife’s face and felt a sudden uneasiness. Frowning, he asked, "You didn’t provoke him again, did you?"
"It wasn’t me, it was our beloved son..."
Jiang Fenglian, seeing her husband’s displeasure, said cautiously, "Dong’er, in his eagerness to seek justice for me, had people go after Fang Bai, but they failed. Dong’er is worried Fang Bai might retaliate against him, so he asked me to discuss it with you..."
"That damned kid is getting more and more out of control! And you, why didn’t you stop him?"
Wang Jingzhong’s palm came down with a "slap" on the coffee table in front of him, causing the cup to jump and a good amount of tea to splash out.
Jiang Fenglian was startled by her husband’s anger and said with a touch of grievance, "I only just heard about this from Dong’er... Jingzhong, what’s done is done. This isn’t the time to be angry, we need to think of a solution!"
"Sigh..."
Wang Jingzhong closed his eyes, leaned back on the sofa, and sighed, "If it were an ordinary person, it would be manageable, but is Fang Bai an ordinary person? He’s the one who defeated two of our family’s Profound Level initial stage Martial Artists with a single move..."
After pondering for a while with his eyes closed, Wang Jingzhong continued, "Father is a member of the Dragon Guard, he loathes evil as if it were his personal enemy, irreproachably upright, and the Dragon Guard itself is an organization upholding fairness and justice. If he learns of this, you and our daughter would certainly be sternly reprimanded..."
Jiang Fenglian, who feared no one in the skies above or the earth below except for her father-in-law, Wang Huashan, panicked at his words. She grabbed her husband’s hand and pleaded, "We absolutely cannot let Father know about this, or else Dong’er and I will be doomed."
