Chapter 520: Chapter 520: I admit defeat to you!
For Fang Bai, an extra ten billion showing up in his account was merely a change in numbers, without any other significance.
However, Fang Bai didn’t just take their ten billion for nothing. He found some time to meet with Su Yifei and Qin Shan and gave each of them a jade pendant.
Each pendant contained three strands of lethal intent that Fang Bai had infused into them, which could save their lives three times in critical moments.
Su Yifei and Qin Shan both knew of Fang Bai’s mysterious abilities. After hearing about the magical effect of the jade pendants, both of them accepted them with seriousness and hung them around their necks right there and then.
Qin Shan even took off his Jade Guanyin and Jade Buddha to hang only the jade pendant given by Fang Bai.
Although there was a rule in the Ancient Martial World that "misfortunes should not befall one’s family," to prevent desperate opponents, whether overt or covert, from harming his loved ones, Fang Bai especially re-enchanted the jade pendants he had previously given to his family and reminded them to always wear them.
Fang Bai’s current combat strength was already equivalent to that of a Heaven Level Martial Artist. Therefore, the re-enchanted pendants, which contained several strands of lethal intent, were as powerful as attacks from a Heaven Level Martial Artist.
In other words, unless a Heaven Level Martial Artist personally took action, no one could pose a significant threat to Fang Bai’s close family members. Those with slightly weaker strength would definitely pay a heavy price.
Furthermore, following the explosion incident, Fang Bai also provided his sister, Fang Yun, and his disciple, Ghost Hand, with a large quantity of Essence Stones, guiding and urging them to cultivate, which led to a substantial increase in their strength.
With his current strength, Ghost Hand could even contend with a martial artist of the mid-Earth Level.
Meanwhile, Fang Yun had advanced to the high ranks of the Yellow Level and could compete against any Profound Level Martial Artist.
With the two of them protecting the Fang Family, coupled with those jade pendants for protection, even if Fang Bai returned to Yanjing for a while, he wouldn’t worry about his family’s safety.
Fang Bai also planned to send the Lightning Mink back to Zhongzhou after he arrived in Yanjing, to follow his parents and ensure their safety.
The Lightning Mink was a miraculous little beast whose strength could improve even while it slept.
Although the Lightning Mink had been left behind in Yanjing without Fang Bai providing cultivation resources, and its progress might slow down, once Fang Bai arrived in Yanjing with a substantial amount of cultivation resources, the Lightning Mink’s strength would surely make a tremendous leap.
Several days later, as the storm stirred up by the explosion near the stadium gradually subsided, Zhongzhou City seemed to return to its usual calm.
But beneath this calm surface, there were undercurrents swirling.
Every day, as Fang Bai walked the streets and alleys of Zhongzhou City, he often sensed fluctuations in martial aura, indicating that the number of Martial Artists in Zhongzhou had suddenly increased.
Through careful observation, Fang Bai noticed that these Martial Artists belonged to different organizations and forces, mainly from the Su Family of Zhongzhou, the Qin Family of Jinling, and the "Dragon Guard" of Huaxia.
These three forces were stationed in Zhongzhou, and Fang Bai speculated that they were all here to uncover the mastermind behind the explosion incident.
What Fang Bai did not expect was that the Dragon Maiden of the "Dragon Guard" had traveled thousands of miles from Yanjing to Zhongzhou, and even took the initiative to meet with him.
"I’ve come to Zhongzhou on an assignment from the Prime Minister and my grandfather to investigate who was behind the explosion a few days ago! The explosion caused significant casualties and had a severely negative impact; the Prime Minister and my grandfather both hope I can find the culprit and bring them to justice! I don’t have much help with me, so I need your assistance," she said, getting straight to the point as soon as she met Fang Bai in a small coffee shop in Zhongzhou City.
"It seems there’s more than just me from Zhongzhou’s ’Dragon Guard.’ Why don’t you ask someone else for help? I’m really busy..."
Lately, Fang Bai had been busy guiding his sister, Fang Yun, and his disciple, Ghost Hand, in their cultivation techniques and martial arts, as well as focusing on his own cultivation. He truly had little spare time.
"Because you are stronger than anyone else! Isn’t that reason enough?"
The Dragon Maiden gave Fang Bai a tall hat and laughed like a little fox.
"I really am busy..."
Fang Bai said with a wry smile.
"The duty of us ’Dragon Guard’ members is to punish evil and promote good, to support justice. The casualties from the explosion are infuriating, with many innocent lives lost or injured. Are you really indifferent to this? My grandfather always said, ’The greatest hero is one who serves their country and its people...’"
"Stop! I give up! Isn’t it enough that I agree to help you?"
Fang Bai knew the Dragon Maiden could be persistent. If he didn’t agree, she would probably stick to him like glue, as she did the last time she pulled him into joining the "Dragon Guard," chattering incessantly and preaching day after day. Just the thought of it gave him a headache.
"You don’t need to look for the real culprit anymore, I know who did it!"
Fang Bai said earnestly, "As long as you can find them, I’ll help you take them down!"
"You know who did it?"
The Dragon Maiden stared wide-eyed at Fang Bai, her eyes swirling as she tentatively said, "Could it be that the explosion... was related to you?"
"The explosion was targeted at me!"
Fang Bai knew that the Dragon Guard had members all over Huaxia, with immense strength, and their leader, Long Jingtian, was a Heaven Level Martial Artist. If he could leverage the power of the Dragon Guard, he might be able to locate the hideout of the ’Wrathful Beauties’ more quickly.
"How do you know it was targeted at you?"
The Dragon Maiden leaned forward, her eyes growing even larger.
Although the weather was cold, the Dragon Maiden, being a Martial Artist, wasn’t wearing much. As she leaned forward, her chest pressed against the tabletop, creating two spectacular curves.
From Fang Bai’s angle, he could see an impressive cleavage extending downward from beneath her pale neck, leading to imaginative thoughts.
The Dragon Maiden noticed Fang Bai’s gaze becoming strange and followed his line of sight down to realize she was exposing herself. She straightened up immediately, her face blushing as she glared at Fang Bai, grinding her teeth as she said, "Do you like what you see?"
"It’s not very clear... but it seems pretty good!"
Seeing the Dragon Maiden’s frustration and embarrassment, Fang Bai couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"Who is the real culprit behind the explosion? How do you know they were targeting you? Speak up!"
The Dragon Maiden, after seeing Fang Bai laugh triumphantly at having taken advantage of her, really wanted to stand up and punch him, but knowing she was no match for him, she could only threateningly raise her small fists.
"You must know of the organization ’Wrathful Beauties,’ right?"
Fang Bai’s face became serious as he said, "This organization has tried to kill me more than once, but never succeeded. Several of their members... have died at my hands."
"You mean to say... the explosion was planned by ’Wrathful Beauties’ to target you?"
The Dragon Maiden’s face also became grave.
