Chapter 320 The Second Invitation from Han Qi
The Zheng Family!?
Qin Lang was stunned, and his expression immediately changed.
When he was in Yan City, he had already heard about this matter.
The Zheng family had mobilized all the major families in Northern Huai to search for Fang Yu, seeking revenge for the death of the Zheng family’s Third Elder!
Now Fang Yu was taking that broken sword to the Zheng family… could he be planning to confront the Zheng family head-on!?
Qin Lang stood frozen in place, his expression constantly changing.
Then he noticed that Fang Yu had already walked out the door, so he quickly followed.
Sitting in the elevator, Qin Lang looked at the calm Fang Yu and asked, “Master Fang… are you really going to the Zheng family?”
“Is there any doubt?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said.
“But, but…” Qin Lang was shocked, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.
The Zheng family had a very prominent reputation in Northern Huai, known as the number one martial arts family in the region.
And recently, the news that the Zheng family’s Grand Elder Zheng Yan had successfully broken through to the Martial Saint realm had shocked the entire martial arts world of the Nine Provinces Nation.
It could be said that the Zheng family was at the height of their power.
One could even say that the current Zheng family, if placed in Yan City, would rank among the middle-tier families!
Although Fang Yu was strong, he was still just one person!
His opponent, the Zheng family, had a Martial Saint powerhouse presiding over them, and their foundation was extremely deep.
Looking at countless precedents, those who opposed a family with their individual strength mostly didn’t end up well.
“What do you want to say?” Fang Yu looked at the hesitant Qin Lang and asked.
“Uh… I hope Master Fang won’t mind me saying this… but isn’t going directly to confront the Zheng family a bit impulsive?” Qin Lang squeezed out a smile and said.
“It’s fine, they’ve been looking for me for over a month. If I don’t go find them today, they’ll eventually find me anyway.” As Fang Yu spoke, he stretched lazily, “I haven’t been active for over a month, so it’s a good opportunity to exercise.”
Seeing Fang Yu’s calm and even somewhat lazy demeanor, Qin Lang closed his mouth.
Clearly, Fang Yu didn’t consider the Zheng family a threat at all.
As they walked out of the apartment elevator and headed toward the exit of the community, Qin Lang deliberately slowed his pace, took out his phone, and called his grandfather Qin Wudao.
The current situation was beyond his ability to handle, and he couldn’t stop Fang Yu, so he could only consult Qin Wudao.
“Grandfather, I’ve delivered the sword to Master Fang,” Qin Lang said.
“Hmm, did he say anything?” Qin Wudao asked.
“Uh, he’s now taking the sword to the Zheng family,” Qin Lang said softly, watching Fang Yu walking ahead.
“Oh? Going to the Zheng family?” Qin Wudao was obviously stunned for a moment, then laughed, “It seems he’s not planning to keep a low profile anymore.”
“Grandfather, what should I do?” Qin Lang asked.
“What do you want to do?” Qin Wudao asked in return.
“Are we just going to let Master Fang go to the Zheng family like this?” Qin Lang asked in surprise.
“Of course, this is his decision, and no one can stop him,” Qin Wudao said.
“Then… I want to stay by his side and learn something, is that okay?” Qin Lang asked hesitantly.
“Hahaha, of course it’s okay, but you probably won’t learn anything,” Qin Wudao laughed.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Lang quickly caught up with Fang Yu.
The two walked together on the street.
Thinking about the scene they might encounter later, Qin Lang felt nervous yet incredibly excited.
He was certain that Fang Yu possessed strength that could match a Martial Saint.
This meant that when they arrived at the Zheng family, he would be able to witness a close-range confrontation between two Martial Saints.
A battle between Martial Saints would surely be earth-shattering!
But at the same time, Qin Lang was also worried.
The confrontation between Fang Yu and the Zheng family’s Grand Elder was a matter between two martial artists.
But behind the Zheng family’s Grand Elder was the entire Zheng family!
The Zheng family’s influence in Northern Huai could be described as all-encompassing.
In this case, the upcoming confrontation would not possibly be fair!
Even if Fang Yu could defeat the Zheng family’s Grand Elder, it would provoke an encirclement from other members of the Zheng family, or even from other martial arts families in Northern Huai!
How would they break out of such a situation?
The more Qin Lang thought about it, the more alarmed he became. He turned to look at Fang Yu walking beside him.
At this moment, Fang Yu’s expression was also extremely solemn.
Indeed, Master Fang must also feel that this journey is extremely dangerous, right?
Should they reconsider more deeply before deciding how to proceed?
Qin Lang nervously watched Fang Yu.
As they walked, Fang Yu suddenly stopped.
Qin Lang immediately stopped as well.
Was he finally going to make a decision!?
Even if they turned back now, Qin Lang wouldn’t consider Fang Yu a coward or afraid.
He knew that true strong individuals were both brave and strategic.
There had been many figures in the past who were powerful but lacked intelligence, and such people were collectively known as brutes.
Fang Yu turned his head, looked at Qin Lang, scratched his head, and asked, “Do you know the exact location of the Zheng family?”
“…” Qin Lang was momentarily speechless.
After a moment of silence, the phone in Fang Yu’s pocket suddenly vibrated.
Fang Yu glanced at the caller ID, slightly frowned, and answered the call.
“Mr. Fang, you’ve finally appeared. The entire Northern Huai has been looking for you during this period.”
It was a soft, feminine voice.
This voice was familiar to Fang Yu—Han Qi.
“Your intelligence network is impressive. I merely went downstairs for a meal, and you already know about it,” Fang Yu said calmly.
“Hehe, actually, I’ve known your residence for a long time, but since you hadn’t come out for so long, I thought you might be in seclusion, so I didn’t disturb you,” Han Qi laughed.
“So, why are you looking for me now?” Fang Yu asked.
“Mr. Fang, you’ve just come out of seclusion, so you probably don’t know the current situation, right?” Han Qi asked.
“I know,” Fang Yu said.
“Good, since you know, I’ll be straightforward. The Zheng family is currently searching for your whereabouts with all their might. As soon as they have any news about you, they’ll take action immediately.”
“I know that you, Mr. Fang, are extremely powerful, possibly even comparable to a Martial Saint. But I must tell you that your opponent is not just one Martial Saint, but the entire Zheng family… and if necessary, other martial arts families in Northern Huai will also help the Zheng family!” Han Qi said.
“So I should cooperate with your Han family to jointly oppose the Zheng family?” Fang Yu asked.
“Mr. Fang, this is indeed the only path you can take right now. To confront a martial arts family, you must have another family standing behind you, otherwise you’ll be outnumbered,” Han Qi said.
His tone was very confident.
In his view, given the current situation, as long as Fang Yu was a sensible person, he would choose to cooperate with the Han family.
Otherwise, there would only be a dead end.
“Do you know the specific address of the Zheng family?”
Just as Han Qi was waiting for Fang Yu’s response, Fang Yu suddenly asked such a question.
Han Qi was stunned for a moment, then answered, “Of course I know.”
“Please send the Zheng family’s address to my phone,” Fang Yu said.
Han Qi was silent for a moment, then asked, “…what do you intend to do?”
“Go to the Zheng family, of course,” Fang Yu replied.
Hearing this, Han Qi was silent for several seconds before saying, “You… are sure you want to go alone?”
“It’s enough,” Fang Yu said.
“…If that’s the case, then pretend I never made this call. Good luck, I’ll send you the address.” After saying this, Han Qi hung up.
A minute later, Fang Yu’s phone received a text message containing an address.
Northern Huai, northern part of Donglin City, Zheng Family Estate.
Knowing the address, Fang Yu turned to Qin Lang and asked, “Are you sure you want to come along?”
Qin Lang didn’t hesitate much and immediately replied, “Yes! As long as Master Fang doesn’t mind…”
He followed Fang Yu not only to learn, but also to provide backup.
If Fang Yu really found himself in a difficult situation, Qin Lang would be there to offer help.
Although his strength was far inferior to Fang Yu’s, he had the Qin family behind him.
Regarding helping Fang Yu, Qin Wudao had never given specific instructions, but Qin Lang knew he should do so.
During the trip to Nine Phoenix Island, if Fang Yu hadn’t been there, he and Qin Yimo would likely have met with disaster.
A life-saving grace must be repaid—this was a principle of being human.
“Alright then, let’s go,” Fang Yu said.
…
Northern Huai, Han Family.
Han Qi put down his phone, stood up, and paced back and forth in his study.
His expression kept changing, sometimes puzzled, sometimes surprised, sometimes cold.
But in the end, a smile appeared on his face.
“Although I may lose an important chess piece, I can use this to clearly see the Zheng family’s strength,” Han Qi stroked his chin, his eyes flashing with cold light, “If they end up severely wounding each other, that would be even better.”
