"Forget it..."
Fang Lin's face had already been beaten badly, and Qin Fang didn't want to bicker with him any further. He waved his hand dismissively and chose to drop the matter, appearing very magnanimous... This also highlighted Fang Lin's pettiness in a way.
Of course, both Chen Liang and Ling Fei were very pleased, as the issue between Qin Fang and Fang Lin was now completely resolved...
As for what would happen when Fang Lin returned to the Tian Nan Sect and his master, Fang Tianlin, found out about this, it was out of their hands; they had done their best to handle it to this extent.
"Martial Uncle, there are a lot of people here, and it's inconvenient to talk. Why not join us in the inner hall?"
With the matter settled, Chen Liang and Ling Fei respectfully invited Qin Fang to the inner hall.
"Alright! Lead the way..."
His two junior nephews had given him face, and Qin Fang didn't want to reject their goodwill, so he nodded in agreent.
Thus, the group moved from the "Gathering Hall" of the Four Seas Hall to the inner hall at the back.
Fang Lin naturally had to follow obediently, and Brother Biao, the boss of the Four Seas Hall, was anxiously serving tea and could not afford to neglect them even a bit. In his eyes now, Qin Fang appeared like a godlike figure...
"I rember, your Tian Nan Sect is located in the southern part of the Little Island. How did you co to Beitai?"
After sitting down, Qin Fang asked while sipping his tea, feeling a bit puzzled.
Tian Nan Sect was considered a major sect on the Little Island. Although Sect Master Fang Tianlin was not yet at the Grandmaster level, he had been at the Master Level Peak for many years and was considered a veteran expert... Though to Qin Fang, he was insignificant, Fang Tianlin was still a powerful figure.
Qin Fang had encountered many experts, which naturally elevated his standards, but not everyone had access to such experiences... For most people, a grandmaster-level expert was already invincible, let alone being among the top in that level.
Moreover, although Fang Tianlin was the Sect Master of the Tian Nan Sect, he was not the top expert. The sect also had a Supre Elder with Grandmaster-level cultivation, who seldom appeared, so few knew of his existence.
After all, a remotely decent sect without a Grandmaster-level expert would find it hard to avoid decline, and the Tian Nan Sect was no exception...
However, the main force of Tian Nan Sect was in the southern part of the Little Island, while this was the northern region. The presence of Chen Liang, Ling Fei, and Fang Lin there seed quite unusual... In his mory, another sect that didn't get along with Tian Nan Sect was entrenched in this area.
"Well…"
Chen Liang and the others paused slightly, seeming a bit hesitant, while Fang Lin's eyes flickered uncertainly.
"If it's inconvenient, pretend I didn't ask…"
Noticing their reaction, Qin Fang realized that there must be so hidden story behind this. Although he was nominally "Martial Uncle," he actually had no relation to the Tian Nan Sect, and it would be improper to ddle in their sect's affairs.
"Martial Uncle, actually... it's not that we can't say!"
Chen Liang and Ling Fei exchanged a glance, shared so eye contact, and then slowly spoke, clearly still undecided in their minds.
"It's alright, you don't have to say it!"
Qin Fang smiled. The more it was like this, the more he didn't want to get involved. If it turned out to be sothing troubleso, he might find himself in hot water.
Although with his current cultivation at the Grandmaster-level tier, stronger than even the strongest Supre Elder of the Tian Nan Sect, any problem the Tian Nan Sect could solve would certainly not pose much difficulty for Qin Fang.
But matters involving sects often beca very complex. Being a solitary person, Qin Fang certainly didn't want to invite unnecessary trouble upon himself.
The issue Fang Lin had stirred up already made him feel frustrated, so why would he want to get involved in other matters?
"Martial Uncle, that's not what we ant..."
Seeing Qin Fang's refusal, Chen Liang and Ling Fei beca anxious and imdiately added, "Actually, if you, senior, could help us, this matter would be easier to handle, and at least... our lives would be more secure."
"Is it that dangerous?"
Qin Fang hesitated for a mont, glancing at Chen Liang, Ling Fei, and that Fang Lin, and asked, sowhat puzzled.
Since Fang Tianlin had sent these few people to handle this matter, it was evidently pre-considered as dangerous, but definitely within a range they could endure... it's just that from Chen Liang's words, it seed the matter was far more complex and dangerous than he imagined.
"Originally, it wasn't that dangerous... it's just, now there's been a slight change!"
Chen Liang said with a wry smile, "We just got the news and haven't had ti to consult our master before we ca over..."
At this point, both Chen Liang and Ling Fei glared fiercely at Fang Lin, clearly unsatisfied with his previous actions, thinking it was his fault for provoking Qin Fang, causing Qin Fang to refuse to help them.
"If it's convenient, first tell what the matter is. If it's not too complicated, I'll give a hand... But if it's too troubleso, you'll have to seek Senior Brother Fang's help. I won't be on the little island for long!"
Qin Fang thought about it. Chen Liang and Ling Fei had been quite considerate to him, and as their senior uncle, he couldn't truly disregard everything, so he agreed simply.
However, necessary reminders and instructions, Qin Fang wouldn't be vague about... He couldn't be cleaning up after the Tian Nan Sect forever.
"Convenient, convenient, of course convenient..."
Upon hearing Qin Fang's words, Chen Liang and Ling Fei were overjoyed and quickly expressed their gratitude, even though Fang Lin, standing beside them, had a flicker of disdain in his eyes.
But the brothers Chen Liang and Ling Fei knew well that when they first t Qin Fang, their master Fang Tianlin had ntioned that Qin Fang, although much younger than them, possessed incredible cultivation, superior by more than just one or two levels compared to him.
And a few months later, upon eting Qin Fang again, Chen Liang and the others felt even more that Qin Fang had changed completely, seemingly becoming deeper and stronger...
This ti the matter is very troubleso, even if they sought help from the sect, at most their master Fang Tianlin would personally arrive...
However, for one, it was too hasty, and two, Fang Tianlin's strength wasn't as robust as Qin Fang's.
These realistic reasons presented themselves, which forced Chen Liang and Ling Fei to seek out Qin Fang for help!
So Chen Liang briefly described the matter they were going to handle to Qin Fang, explaining the latest developnts clearly...
"You're saying... you discovered a relic?"
Qin Fang hadn't initially paid much attention, thinking it was just an ordinary small matter, but upon listening carefully, his expression slightly changed.
The little island is situated above the East Sea, a bit north is Japan.
This ti, Chen Liang and the others ca because soone unexpectedly discovered a mysterious little island on the sea, frequently appearing and disappearing, seen by only a few.
After much observation, so believed this little island might be so mysterious relic, previously concealed by a formation, and recently the formation developed vulnerabilities, revealing it to the world.
If it were just an ordinary little island, it would be one thing, but a witness claid to have seen what seed like buildings on the island, an ancient complex, possibly a lost relic...
This matter was deliberately covered up by so, including the Tian Nan Sect, Yunhai Sect, and so small factions on the island, only after determining the pattern of the island's appearance, did they decide to jointly explore this mysterious island relic.
But although this matter was originally very well hidden, soone leaked the information, and just as they were about to explore the relic, unexpectedly another group joined in, adding many variables.
"Whether it is a relic or not is still uncertain... However, the fact that these Japanese are getting involved indeed adds substantial risks and unknown factors!"
Chen Liang, being relatively steady, didn't speak too firmly, being sowhat conservative, but still clearly conveyed the troubles they faced.
"No wonder you all are so worried... The Ando family isn't sothing you few can handle; even if Senior Brother Fang cos, he might not fare well... In that case, since the timing works out, I'll accompany you on this trip!"
After hearing Chen Liang's account, Qin Fang pondered slightly before deciding.
"However, I must say upfront, I can only try my best to ensure your safety; as for treasure hunting or treasure acquiring, I can't assure anything... you should first notify Senior Brother Fang, and plan together!"
This relic piqued Qin Fang's interest; he even thought directly of the legend of the Overseas Three Immortal Mountains...
But from Chen Liang's brief account, Qin Fang realized that the suddenly involved Japanese turned out to be from the renowned Ando family in Japan... This is a family with a legacy of hundreds of years, one of Miyamoto Musashi's old adversaries.
This family is also a ninja family, known for specializing in Mizukage Ninjutsu...
This little island being at sea, the Ando family is like being granted wings; no wonder Chen Liang and Ling Fei were worried for their lives, even though they had reached the Master Level Late Stage, they still had no real advantage.
