Chapter 1006: Chapter 104: Gospel (21) Chapter 1006: Chapter 104: Gospel (21) Strength always is the best way to win respect.
On the return trip, not a single mber of the Motion Restriction Team bothered Fu Qian and his companion with any questions.
Despite many being shocked and puzzled in their hearts.
A seemingly flesh-power-based Demigod was beaten flat and blasted to pieces, leaving only a head to barely escape, which might even have been deliberately let go.
For a mont, even Elder Ji Tong’s face looked quite grim.
It clearly was a highly challenging maneuver even for him.
And those words, the weakness of the flesh, the transcendence of the flesh.
Without comparison there would be no damage, although it was clear they both relied on Flesh Power, Professor Andiel was far too formidable, with endless and highly fitting tricks of soone said to splice Extraordinary Powers.
Even his opponent had recognized this fact.
So was it really a case of the counterfeit coming face to face with the genuine article?
But if it were true, wouldn’t it suggest that Ji Liushuang’s status within the Rebirth Club was exaggeratedly esteed?
…
Fu Qian, quite pleased with his gains, paid no mind to the complex thoughts of the others.
After changing into clothes bought for him by Ji Liushuang to avoid startling pedestrians, they set off back at a asured pace.
To maintain her persona along the way, Miss Liushuang was not very talkative, but appeared to be in a good mood.
“So, among your ancestors, was there soone nad Ji Feng?”
With that in mind, Fu Qian rembered sothing and casually inquired.
Ji Feng?
Clearly, Miss Liushuang had thought hard, but ultimately shook her head.
“I’m sorry, I truly don’t recall such a na.”
Not surprising.
Fu Qian wasn’t disappointed, having only asked on a whim.
The Brother Ji Feng from Unseen Hillock not only had an exorbitant Ranking, but the special state he was in likely involved extraordinary issues; it wouldn’t be surprising if his na was hidden by Transcendent techniques.
“So, what should we do next?”
Fu Qian took the initiative, prompting Ji Liushuang to ask in turn.
The recent maneuver had been quite ideal, and with no one else around, it was a good opportunity to confirm the next plan.
“Simple, we go back and rest, then wait for the person you’re looking for to co knocking.”
Fu Qian’s response was utterly natural.
“…So just now, that wasn’t soone scaring Mother?”
“Is this a consultation, or are you testing ?”
Playing with the mask in his hand, Fu Qian looked at Ji Liushuang with a smile that was not quite a smile.
“You should already have an answer in your heart.”
“Just now, that character sneaking into the manor, then greeting by startling ordinary people, and finally suggesting a mutually beneficial exchange—such negotiation skills must exceed the Demigod Level. It would be light to not get killed on the spot, let alone swiftly reach a cooperation.”
“So, the person who did these things probably isn’t him, but soone else who had reason to do so, … soone whose actions would not engender animosity but rather facilitate communication.”
“You’re right.”
Ji Liushuang sighed.
“The first ti I saw that guy, I had the instinct he wasn’t the target, for the reasons you ntioned—the odd behavior was probably ant to achieve so goal, not just to provoke. But what could that goal be?”
“That’s hard to say since I’m not familiar with this place, but have you ever considered who could hit soone in their own ho and yet help in communication?”
What kind of question is that…
Ji Liushuang slightly furrowed her brows. Then, her eyes brightened a mont later.
“… Their own family.”
“He even knew about Mother’s situation.”
Indeed, nurtured from a young age by a top family, she was able to solve such a twisted riddle.
Fu Qian nodded in approval.
“And as for soone from the Ji Family related to the Rebirth Club, I happen to know a Ji Ping.”
“Ji Ping…”
Murmuring the na, Ji Liushuang’s gaze grew increasingly piercing.
“I know this person; he should be about the sa age as Mother, also inherited no Bloodline Talent, but he was relatively lucky to not have any inheritance rights.”
“Of course, he doesn’t think so, and seeming unable to accept reality, he left the family years ago. He joined the Rebirth Club?”
Ji Ping was about the sa age as Liushuang’s mother? He indeed was well-preserved.
Fu Qian recalled the Ji Ping who had knocked on his door late at night, inviting him to join the Rebirth Club alongside Lady Jenny Ma.
And Miss Liushuang truly paid little attention to family affairs. Even the deceased Ji Yicheng was clearly aware of Ji Ping joining the Rebirth Club.
“I drank with him once on the Archipelago.”
Fu Qian recounted episodes from his past.
“However, after the accident, his whereabouts beca unclear.”
You really are quite familiar with them, aren’t you…
After ntally quipping, Ji Liushuang quickly focused on the matter at hand.
“So, fundantally, this incident might be Ji Ping returning to the Ji Family with the Rebirth Club’s offer of partnership, and Mother beca his tool to demonstrate his capabilities?”
“It’s a strong possibility, and the answer should be revealed soon.”
Fu Qian pointed in the direction of Silver Mist Manor.
“They won’t be foolish enough to stage another pursuit; that would an Elder Lu might rage again, and the situation could spiral further out of control.”
“And they can’t simply give up; so next up, most likely there will be a sowhat more civilized exchange.”
“We can take our ti walking there, to give them so ti to discuss and confirm this plan.”
Fu Qian did not bring up the Native Council. In his judgent, Ji Ping likely had the confidence to wave the Rebirth Club flag and cause trouble because of them.
And this plan could partially be aid at controlling the Gospel Group and, not impossibly, targeting the Rebirth Club itself.
As he had said before, he had disrupted the Native Council’s plans quite a bit, so any form of retaliation from them wouldn’t be surprising.
“Okay.”
Ji Liushuang displayed no doubts about Fu Qian’s analysis. At that mont, she even slowed her pace considerably and, distracted, browsed through the street’s various alluring goods, without further questioning what he wanted in return.
…
As expected of a top family, their decisiveness was swift.
By the ti Fu Qian and his company reached Silver Mist Manor, it was clear soone was eagerly awaiting them.
“Professor Andiel, Liushuang, there’s soone here you may want to et.”
Not only was Ji Xun personally waiting, but he also got straight to the point without any small talk.
“Alright, we’ll be there shortly.”
This ti, it was Ji Liushuang who directly responded.
After the prior exchange, she was not surprised by the current developnt. She did not consult Fu Qian, her response full of assurance.
“Good, then I’ll have them prepare.”
This display of Saintess deanor also made Ji Xun’s gaze grow more solemn for a mont.
