Boarding Life Chapter 266:

Just as he made up his mind.

Suddenly, from the depths of the manor, a deep voice suddenly rang out, "Qinghong, how can you be so discourteous? Quickly invite our esteed guest in."

Upon hearing this voice, Qin Qi’s body slightly tensed.

He could pinpoint the source of the voice.

But the voice clearly hadn’t exerted any effort, yet it managed to reach his ears from such a distance.

It sounded incredibly unbelievable!

Xiao Qinghong remained as indifferent as ever, with no expression changes, and said, "Please, co in!"

Qin Qi suddenly beca extrely curious about the owner of the voice.

Just like that, Xiao Qinghong led Qin Qi deep into the manor.

Qin Qi looked closely, only to find a middle-aged man in his forties, quietly savoring tea from a cup!

"Dad, I’ve brought him over!" Xiao Qinghong said coldly.

The middle-aged man raised his head, glanced at Qin Qi, and smiled warmly, "Mr. Qin, I’ve heard so much about you, please!"

Qin Qi glanced at the man, secretly took a breath of cold air.

The feeling the man gave him was like encountering a magnificent and immovable mountain.

This feeling wasn’t even present when he faced Huang Lie.

However, on the surface, he sat opposite him, "You must be Chairman Xiao of the Dingshan Martial Artists Association and Xiao Qinghong’s father, correct?"

"Haha, this little girl Qinghong, Mr. Qin, please don’t mind. She’s also a poor soul." The middle-aged man sighed, starting the topic with special emphasis on his daughter.

Qin Qi couldn’t help but ask, "Oh? What’s wrong with Miss Xiao?"

Chairman Xiao shook his head, "She had a strange illness when she was three. That illness was very peculiar, and to this day, I’m utterly clueless. Because of that illness, she lost so normal human emotions!"

"No joy, no anger, no sorrow, no happiness. So outside, they all say my daughter is a block of wood!"

Hearing this, Qin Qi suddenly beca interested.

Truly no joy or sorrow?

It’s not an act!

He imdiately beca intrigued, "Chairman Xiao, perhaps if you let take care of Miss Xiao, I might be able to cure her illness!"

"Oh? Are you serious, Mr. Qin?" Chairman Xiao was extrely surprised, "This illness has taken all over the country, seeking countless doctors, to no avail!"

Qin Qi lightly coughed twice, "Of course, I can’t say for sure I can cure it, but when it cos to exploring her emotions, I do have so thods!"

Hearing this, Chairman Xiao’s expression gradually beca joyous, "Mr. Qin, what do you plan to do?"

Qin Qi smiled mysteriously, "It’s hard to say, but if Chairman Xiao lets take care of her for a couple of months, perhaps there might be so effect!"

Chairman Xiao laughed heartily, "Mr. Qin, it seems we are on the sa page. Even if you didn’t bring it up, I was planning to have Xiao Qinghong follow you in the future!"

"Oh?" This ti, it was Qin Qi’s turn to be puzzled. He quickly thought of the reason he was invited here and asked curiously, "Chairman Xiao, why did you use the Huang Family ancestor to lure here? What’s your purpose?"

Chairman Xiao chuckled, "Mr. Qin, you have now reached the level of a ninth-level Martial Artist. You must be very curious about enhancing your strength to a higher level, right?"

Qin Qi nodded repeatedly, "Indeed, I am quite curious!"

Without wasting words, Chairman Xiao gently raised his finger and placed it on a nearby cup.

He barely touched it.

Yet, in the next mont, the cup shattered.

This left Qin Qi slightly stunned, "How did you do that? You didn’t even use any force!"

Chairman Xiao smiled, "This is called energy projection. Reaching this level surpasses Martial Artists and attains another level. The world calls it, a True Man."

"Many True n have made their nas known throughout history!"

Qin Qi exclaid in amazent, "Energy projection?"

Chairman Xiao patiently explained, "Indeed. However, I am only at the initial stage of energy projection. It’s said that if one practices to a higher level, one could even walk on water, descend from heights unscathed, just like in novels."

"And even harm people from a distance of several ters."

Qin Qi gasped in amazent.

The tales from martial arts novels aren’t false; in reality, such feats are achievable?

Only then did he gradually understand.

The mysterious woman said that comprehending the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top and opening the Qi Gate would greatly aid in breaking through to the next level beyond Martial Artists!

No wonder there are so few True n; after all, the Martial Artist stage hardly researches Qi, and projecting it outward is undoubtedly a vast chasm to cross.

But he didn’t forget the core issue.

"What was the purpose of Chairman Xiao telling all this..." Qin Qi squinted his eyes.

Chairman Xiao calmly replied, "I wanted to tell you that the Huang Family ancestor has also reached this level. And he is already planning to co after you."

"The gap between a Martial Artist and a True Man is worlds apart. I believe you just felt this directly!"

"Without my help, Mr. Qin, do you think you can handle the Huang Family ancestor?"

Qin Qi fell into thought, "There’s no such thing as a free lunch. If you help , what can I do for you?"

Chairman Xiao replied calmly, "Very simple, all I need is for Mr. Qin to join our Dingshan Martial Artists Association and serve as the vice-chairman."

Qin Qi was increasingly confused, "Chairman Xiao, you better explain clearly!"

Chairman Xiao no longer concealed, he sighed, "Mr. Qin, you truly are straightforward. In each province, there are two Martial Artists Associations. One is us, Dingshan, the other is Three Courts!"

"The Huang Family ancestor is the vice-chairman of the Three Court Martial Artists Association. Over these years, the Three Court Martial Artists Association has been massively recruiting, growing stronger. But as for , I won’t last much longer."

Qin Qi was puzzled, "Chairman Xiao, you don’t seem that old!"

Chairman Xiao shook his head, "I suffered so serious injuries back then. Although my body seems strong, internally, I’m already running out on fus. Besides my confidant, you are the first to know of this, Mr. Qin."

Qin Qi finally understood.

"Chairman Xiao fears that after your death, the Three Court Martial Artists Association will dominate, leaving no place for Xiao Qinghong in this world!" Qin Qi stated.

Chairman Xiao smiled bitterly, "Yes, if the Dingshan Martial Artists Association truly loses , there will be no other True Man to protect it. The Three Courts would not spare Qinghong. But where can I find another True Man for protection?"

"My only hope is to bet on you, Mr. Qin. You are talented at a young age, reaching the ninth-level Martial Artist level, a gift I’ve never seen before. Before I perish, there might be a hope for you to beco a True Man!"

Qin Qi finally grasped, "So, you protect now, and later, I protect your daughter!"

Chairman Xiao smiled with relief, "Mr. Qin, the entire Dingshan Martial Artists Association, from the mont you agree, will be yours!"
