SWOOSH...
A red light flashed across the sky as a fat monk clad in a bright red kasaya arrived via Sword Control. The speed was incredible, so fast that the human eye couldn’t get a clear look. All anyone could see was a brief flash of red light; upon a closer look, the glow had already vanished.
Therefore, the crowd only saw a blur before a monk appeared in front of them. The sword beneath his feet also vanished like a ghost, and no one knew where he had put it.
"We pay our respects to Master Tianlong."
Zhao Dawei and the other mbers of the Special Action Team all bowed reverently.
"Zhang Bin pays his respects to Master Tianlong," Zhang Bin also greeted with clasped fists.
"No need for formalities," Master Tianlong waved his hand. "What happened? Where is the Liquid State Cultivator?"
Zhao Dawei recounted the situation in detail.
"How audacious!" An expression of intense anger appeared on Master Tianlong’s face. "Daring to kill my subordinate? Daring to murder the innocent? You’re courting death."
He suddenly soared into the air and chased in the direction the middle-aged man had fled. At the sa ti, his vast Divine Sense burst forth, searching ticulously.
However, Zhang Bin knew that it was impossible for Master Tianlong to find the man. He had been having Tutu monitor the middle-aged man with satellites the whole ti. The man was exceedingly cunning. He had already made his way to Qingshan County City and entered a large supermarket, after which he vanished. He must have changed his appearance and escaped through another exit. The supermarket had a large flow of people, so even Tutu couldn’t imdiately determine which person was the middle-aged man. It required a careful process of elimination, which would naturally take a long ti. Who knows if that guy would go to another supermarket or station later? And change his appearance again? If so, even Tutu wouldn’t be able to find him.
However, Zhang Bin was still confident he could find the man. The middle-aged man had slipped up on his way here, revealing he was from a city near the Iron Sword Sect—Bacheng. Moreover, as long as the man read the Jade Scroll Simple in any location with surveillance, Tutu would be able to find him. Actually, Zhang Bin was quite sure the man was the Sect Leader of the Iron Sword Sect, Han Tie.
Of course, the mbers of the Special Action Team thought so too, but they lacked evidence. Without evidence, it was difficult to proceed.
After a while, Master Tianlong returned with a sowhat sour look on his face, having clearly failed to find his target.
He looked at Zhao Dawei and reproached, "Cultivators who have reached the Liquid State have developed Divine Sense. You must use a code when sending text ssages..."
"I’m sorry. It was my oversight this ti," Zhao Dawei said, his face full of remorse.
In truth, the situation had been so urgent that it was impressive enough Zhao Dawei had managed to secretly send a text ssage at all. How could he have thought of using a code? Besides, he wasn’t carrying a codebook on him at the ti.
"It’s alright. Just be more careful next ti," Master Tianlong said, then turned his gaze to Zhang Bin, praising him. "Zhang Bin, you’ve done very well. You’ve already opened nineteen ridians. You have the potential to cultivate to the Liquid State, and if you have a fortuitous encounter, you might even reach the Golden Core Realm. You’re also a mber of my Special Action Team. I look forward to your rapid growth."
He was unaware that Zhang Bin had only been on the path of cultivation for a few months; he assud Zhang Bin had been cultivating strenuously for nearly twenty years. Reaching the Liquid State within one’s lifeti was no simple feat, as it required accumulating an imnse amount of True Qi. Thus, any Cultivator who could reach the Liquid State was undoubtedly a rare genius. As for those who could reach the Golden Core Realm, they were even more incredible—geniuses that appeared only once in a century.
"I will work hard on my cultivation," Zhang Bin promised.
He certainly wouldn’t contradict Master Tianlong’s words; that would be childish. If Master Tianlong hadn’t arrived today, his fate would have been utterly miserable. If that man had stayed just a little longer, he would have realized Zhang Bin wasn’t dead and surely would have attacked again. Qian Bing would have been dood as well.
Shortly after, Master Tianlong inquired about Zhang Bin’s sect and his miraculous dical skills. Zhang Bin naturally evaded the questions, saying that the Taiqing Sect was a reclusive sect whose elders did not appear in public, and that they possessed miraculous dical skills.
Master Tianlong didn’t press further. Given his status and power as an expert, he naturally wouldn’t concern himself with a reclusive sect. He gave Zhao Dawei so detailed instructions and then flew away on his sword.
"An immortal..."
This ti, the villagers finally saw clearly that Master Tianlong was flying via Sword Control, and they were so shocked they nearly bit their tongues off.
Zhao Dawei and the others also left quickly by plane, taking Turen Xiong, Diao Chenghua, and Gu Yang with them. Before leaving, he whispered to Zhang Bin, "Master Tianlong will continue to monitor this place, but he can only do so for three days to see if that person returns to deal with you. So, you should seek help from your sect as soon as possible. Of course, our Special Action Team will continue our efforts to capture that person..."
"Thank you," Zhang Bin said gratefully.
Ma Rufei approached Zhang Bin, his face pale with lingering fear. "Master, that was too dangerous. That man was so vicious, far stronger than Gu Yang. It’s a good thing you’re so tough and have those miraculous dical skills..."
"Rufei, you helped out a lot this ti, and you got hurt because of it. I’m sorry," Zhang Bin said apologetically.
"Heh heh... Master, why be so formal with ? I know you’re amazing. You’ll have my back in the future, right?" Ma Rufei said with a grin.
Ma Rufei didn’t stay long either, as his "little brother" was still tied to his thigh. He arranged for soone to repair the gate of Zhang Bin’s Villa, then left, saying he would have soone send Zhang Bin’s parents and sister back soon. He felt there was no longer any danger, as Master Tianlong himself had co, and the Special Action Team had issued an arrest warrant and was hunting the culprit. Moreover, since the enemy believed he had obtained Zhang Bin’s legacy, he would naturally flee as far away as possible.
Tian Bingbing also bid her farewell soon after, and Zhang Bin thanked her as well.
Zhang Bin put on a calm and composed front, instructing his employees to get back to work. He then asked Liu Ruolan, Liu Ruoi, and Xiao Fang into a room in the villa, his expression turning grim.
He looked at Liu Ruolan seriously and said, "Sister Lan, do you understand now? Having only wealth, without powerful strength, not only prevents you from enjoying a rich life but can also attract a great disaster."
"I understand," Liu Ruolan said somberly.
"Therefore, our company can’t grow too quickly. We must take it slow until my strength has increased," Zhang Bin said.
"I’ll slow down the establishnt of the Network Language School and use more money to hire experts to strengthen our forces," Liu Ruolan said.
"I need to return to my sect, which might take about three months," Zhang Bin said solemnly. "I’m entrusting the company to you, and my family as well. When I return, no one will dare to bully us again."
He decided to go into seclusion; he had to cultivate to the Qi Sea Realm. Then, even if he encountered a Liquid State expert, he wouldn’t be completely powerless. As for the Spiritual Water, he could prepare a large amount and just have Big Black and Second Black pour it into the pond every night. After all, his Qi gathering ability was much stronger now.
"Mm-hm."
The three beautiful won all nodded obediently.
Zhang Bin gave a few more detailed instructions before letting Liu Ruolan and Xiao Fang leave. He kept Liu Ruoi back alone, as if he had sothing important to discuss with her.
