World’s Best Martial Artist - Chapter 417

Chapter 417: The Supporters Are Here

Wang Jinyang’s head hurt so much. He ignored Fang Ping.

He was not interested in asking and figured that he should not be asking either.

If he asked too much, then he might really believe it now.

Now, regardless of what happened in the past, he was Wang Jinyang!

Fang Ping, however, did not say much.

This was randomly made-up. Who cared if he believed it or not. If he truly believed him, then it did not sound so bad for him to recognize him as the leader in the future.

“Forget it. I need to stop making up nonsense next time.”

Fang Ping shook his head suddenly. It was fine if he made up nonsense for Old Wang. If guys like Wu Chuan had taken it seriously as well, it was hard to tell what they might do to him.

…

In no time, Fang Ping and the rest had returned to Scenic Lake Gardens.

Fang Ping did not drive the car. Fang Mingrong did.

Although Fang Mingrong did not buy a car nor have a driver’s license, he was still a government official. He had also spent a few days learning how to drive. He had no problems with driving.

The main gate of the neighborhood… might not qualify as a main gate anymore. The once main gate had now collapsed.

Li Yuying had been waiting. When she saw Fang Ping getting out of the car, Li Yiying’s eyes were streaming with tears. She rushed forward and hugged Fang Ping, holding him firmly in her embrace.

Fang Ping was slightly upset inside. This time, he had been rather careless after all.

He did not foresee that the evil sect martial artists would come to Sun City and attack him.

He used to think that someone else would kill him. For example, the two major companies… This was possible after he entered the Catacombs.

As for the evil sect, they had just lost a few high-ranked powerhouses not long ago.

Also, the main takeaway was, Auspicious Peace was really near to Sun City!

Today, there were Grandmasters guarding at Auspicious Peace. Moreover, it was not Commander Bai alone. Earlier, Zhao Xingwu had also hacked the evil sect’s high ranks to death. Other Grandmasters would often patrol Nanjiang’s boundary too.

Under this situation, Sun City’s security might not be any lower than Magic City.

The evil sect’s martial artists were actually so savage to the point that they came to Sun City to kill him on New Year’s eve. Fang Ping did not see that coming. Many did not expect that.

However, the incident had already happened. There was no use saying these things now. Fang Ping stopped thinking about it, comforting his mother with a smile.

Seeing that there were still many martial artists patrolling in the neighborhood, some of the residents had already returned home. Some were still walking back and forth, waiting.

Fang Ping announced at the top of his lungs, “The evil sect martial artists have already been killed! I, Fang Ping, will bear the cost of every damage made today. The neighborhood’s facilities will be reconstructed very soon. After today, the Fang family will leave this place!”

“Ping Ping…”

Li Yuying had not finished her sentence when Fang Ping said softly, “It’s time to move now, mom. Do you think we can still get along with everyone well after today?

“Whether they ingratiate themselves with us or live in terror, they will still interrupt your peaceful lives.

“As for the upcoming arrangement, I’ll think about it.”

Beside him, Fang Mingrong sighed softly. “If things are hard, let’s just move to Magic City.”

Right now, his son’s enemy had turned up at their doorstep. If they insisted on staying in Sun City, their son would be distracted.

They did not encounter these things earlier, hence they were reluctant to part with their hometown.

Now, staying in Sun City would only worry his son.

Fang Ping smiled. “Let’s see about that. There’s no hurry now. At least nothing else will happen for now. If the evil sect are brave enough to return, they will not make it back alive!”

In front of the public, Fang Ping still had to mention that the evil sect were behind this.

If he wished to teach the two major companies a lesson, he should not be influencing the general public’s interests either.

At least after saying these words today, the government would not claim that he, Fang Ping, did not take the general public’s interests into account. There would no calls of biasness.

I had taken the general public’s interests into account now. This should do me some justice, right?

“Mom and dad, go home, and have your dinner. It’s just that the windows have shattered. We’ll see what we can do after we have the family reunion dinner first. I’ll ask someone to keep watch over here…”

As he said that, Fang Ping beckoned at a chubby martial artist beside him.

The chubby middle-aged man walked over immediately. A reverent look on his face. “Deputy Commander Fang.”

The Fang Ping of today was still holding the title as Sun City’s deputy commander.

Fang Ping smiled at him, saying, “Pay extra attention at reassuring everyone. I’ll pay for all the damages. Oh right, are there any casualties?”

The chubby middle-aged man reported quickly. “Deputy Commander Fang, you’ve considered the masses and avoided the crowds. Other than slight damages to the houses, buildings, and the infrastructure, and certain civilians who fell and injured themselves, there aren’t any fatalities.”

“That’s good.”

Fang Ping nodded. Injuries were avoidable.

This was no simple matter such as falling down alone. At that time, the energy waves were intense. Some of their internal organs might have been injured from the tremors too.

Fang Ping thought for a moment, saying, “We still need to perform some checks. Check all residents that were near to the battleground. Let the martial artists perform the checks. Those whose internal organs are critically injured won’t notice obvious signs now. It’ll be too late when they do.

“I’ll bear the cost for all the medical fees.”

At this moment, Fang Ping was not only generous but had also spent quite a lot of money.

Other things aside, though the Middle-stage Rank-6 martial artist whom he killed had nothing on him, there was still a saber.

After selling that saber, the compensation should be enough.

Fang Ping could not care less for this bit of money. He planned to earn even bigger.

The chubby middle-aged man was the Department of Investigation Services’ director. Yet, he was extremely respectful at this moment. He answered immediately, “Commander Fang, this is the result of our neglect. Why don’t Sun City’s government…”

“There’s no need.”

Fang Ping waved his hand. Who cared about this bit of money.

As for what chubby claimed about negligence, Fang Ping was not interested to talk about that.

In the entire Sun City, the strongest was a Rank-3.

Was he supposed to let Bai Jinshan guard his house?

It was useless even if he did. A Rank-6 powerhouse could smash him into pieces with a punch from afar.

Only people like Fang Ping could instantly sense aura-concealing Rank-6 powerhouses. If other people stood in front of Bai Jinshan, Fang Ping would not be able to differentiate them at all.

Certain things could not be prevented.

If the evil sect was determined to kill civilians, unafraid that the government would go all out to exterminate them, then it would not matter where they were.

This could not be prevented even if they were in Magic City.

The powerhouses had their own affairs to attend to. No one had the time to guard someone’s family.

Not only Fang Ping. If the huge number of Grandmaster powerhouses had family members who were ordinary people and were also living an ordinary life, the evil sect would not typically have the courage to do things that would involve their families.

Many people might not have the interest to pay attention to these evil sect martial artists.

Everyone was busy guarding the Catacombs, their plates full. Unless this truly concerned an institution’s safety, otherwise, it was the Military Department and the Department of Investigation Services’ responsibility in dealing with the evil sect.

If the evil sect was brave enough to involve ordinary people, they would be targeted by the entire world.

As for the claims saying that they would massacre the entire city… Fang Ping ignored it completely.

Unless the other party was facing a life and death crisis, they would not have the courage to do such a thing!

The Peak Rank-6 middle-aged man had even threatened Fang Ping, saying that he would massacre the entire of Sun City. Fang Ping was not interested in entertaining him at all.

If he truly did it, government aside, even the evil sect’s higher-ups would kill him straightaway, tossing him out to appease the government’s rage and to prevent the government from searching and hunting them down endlessly. At that time, it would not be a matter of one Rank-6 only.

Certain fights were still limited to martial artists only.

After informing the chubby middle-aged man, Fang Ping sent his parents and Fang Yuan home first. There was no way Fang Ping could eat his reunion dinner anymore.

This was because Fang Ping had already sensed a bunch of familiar auras surging and rising from afar.

Fang Ping unleashed his Vitality as well. Very quickly, a few familiar auras rushed toward him.

…

This time, many from MCMAU came.

Old Man Li’s force was surging. It was no longer Vitality. Instead, Celestiality emerged, sparkling unpredictably.

He had not reached the stage where he could materialize Mentality yet. However, his Mentality swelled really fast lately. He was nearly catching up with Fang Ping now. Under the outburst now, he could also merge it into Celestiality.

Wu Kuishan had arrived too. His golden body aura was completely unmasked, intimidating all over the place.

On top of Tang Feng’s head, Vitality ran through heaven and earth. He was no weaker than Huang Jing, who was standing beside him!

Other than Lu Fengrou and Liu Polu, the MCMAU’s higher-ups had all arrived.

Lu Fengrou was still in closed-door training and had not heard of the news. Wu Kuishan and the rest came personally. There was also no need to call her along too.

“Where is he?”

Old Man Li unleashed his force, intimidating a few Sun City martial artists around to the point of suffocation.

Fang Ping saw that they hastened with their journey, the tip of their heads steaming, he said hurriedly, “It’s been hard on you, instructors. I’ve killed them!”

As he said that, Fang Ping added proudly, “One Peak Rank-6, one Middle-stage Rank-6, one Early-stage Rank-6. I killed each of them with one strike!”

Everyone’s expressions changed!

Old Man Li said, “Speak the truth!”

“This is the truth!”

Fang Ping said proudly. “I’ve condensed my golden bones!”

It was only now did they have the time to pay attention to this. Wu Kuishan detected for a moment. Suddenly, an extremely puzzled look was portrayed on his face!

Motherf*cker. This seemed really familiar.

There was not a Rank-8 powerhouse out there who was not familiar with this.

He had really condensed his golden bones!

Last time, although Fang Ping was glowing in dazzling gold, he was not considered to have a complete golden bone.

Right now… the style was still slightly different.

But… Wu Kuishan took a look at Old Man Li, and muttered, “It seems like it’s stronger than Li Changsheng!”

Old Man Li’s expression turned dark!

What a joke!

Fang Ping said matter-of-factly, “Of course. Instructor Li has only turned his bones golden. His bone marrow is not honed yet. I’m different. Other than the skull and bone marrow, I’ve completely transformed other parts into gold!”

“I…”

Old Man Li was so mad he wanted to slash someone. He roared furiously, “Do you know that I am dog-tired in making this trip? You son of a b*tch. Are you really giving me these mocking remarks right now?”

Old Man Li roared in rage. ‘He f*cking dealt me another blow!

‘So what if you, kid, have golden bones? I have sealed off my Sanjiao Gate now. What about you?

‘You, a Middle-stage Rank-5 have golden bones, so what? If you’re not happy about it, let’s have a duel!’

Fang Ping hurriedly consoled him. “Am I? I’m not mocking you, instructor. You asked me to speak the truth, didn’t you? I’m being honest about it. I really did kill them… Of course, Brother Wang helped defend me for a moment. I prepared for some time before killing the other party.”

Beside him, Wang Jinyang bowed gently, considered to have given his greetings.

Though in his heart, he was slightly envious.

MCMAU was indeed much more powerful than NMAU.

This was nothing to be envious about!

Fang Ping was ambushed. By calling out to them, two golden body powerhouses and one Rank-7 had come from MCMAU. Even Half-Grandmaster Tang Feng was here.

With this ability, it was no wonder Fang Ping had the confidence to be arrogant.

Look at NMAU. This time, he was also involved in the fight. It was not that no one from NMAU was willing to come, but… the two Rank-6 powerhouses were still on the way!

Wang Jinyang had also informed them that they need not come anymore.

Both Peak Rank-6 who had not attained Mentality-Vitality fusion would not be much help even if they came. Wang Jinyang also did not want NMAU to participate in the upcoming affairs. MCMAU had the confidence but they did not. All he needed was Fang Ping to stand in front of him.

Old Man Li cursed aloud. Then, his expression changed slightly, asking in a low voice, “How are your injuries?”

Fang Ping looked at Wu Kuishan, saying pitifully, “Vice-chancellor, please provide me with some imperishable substance. I’m about to turn into a skeleton now.”

Old Man Li was too weak. His imperishable substance had not been born yet.

The corner of Wu Kuishan’s mouth twitched. Why did this kid sound like he was asking for a beating?

It was like he was borrowing money. Was this thing supposed to be provided when asked?

If Fang Ping was close to dying, then he had nothing to say.

However, this kid was very much alive. There was no sign of him dying. If he had to consume imperishable substance to heal him now… he would never do it!

Seeing that Wu Kuishan ignored him, Fang Ping was helpless. Very quickly, he regained his fighting spirit, gritting his teeth, and said, “Instructors, let’s go. Let’s go to the House of Commander. This time, we’ll not let this matter drop if we can’t rip off hundreds of billions!”

Wu Kuishan frowned suddenly, asking in a low voice, “What are you trying to do?”

“Look for trouble!”

Fang Ping walked as he talked. “Don’t worry, I’m not looking for trouble for no reason at all. I brought evidence this time!”

As he said that, Fang Ping suddenly took off his clothes, exposing his broken and mangled flesh, sending shivers down their spines. This was no light injury.

“I’ll go there like this. Let them take a look that even this won’t kill me, Fang Ping. Instead, I’ve killed three Rank-6s. When my ability increases further, I’ll love to see if any Rank-9 will come and kill me!”

This was less of a demonstration but more of gaining compassion.

Naturally, the rest knew what his intention was. Old Man Li was still frowning, “Who’s your target?”

“The two major companies!”

“This was their doing this time?”

“I don’t know.” Fang Ping shook his head. Then, he added, “I have evidence. Before the Peak Rank-6 died, he disclosed two names. Forget it, I won’t say it now. When we go to the House of Commander later, I’ll expose it in front of everyone, trapping both of them on the spot!”

Both of them were in River City right now. There was still one more chamber of commerce Grandmaster keeping watch in River City now, including Zhang Dingnan who was injured.

Fang Ping planned to make Wu Kuishan take another trip. Capture them first regardless of the truth.

Both of them were not considered the people from the government institution anyway. Nor were they people of high status and importance. If this was someone from the Military Department or other places, they might be able to suspect only and might not be able to capture the other party.

When the time came, he would investigate again under the nose of so many Grandmasters. If he had accused the other party wrongly, then Fang Ping would apologize. This was no big deal.

If it was not a false accusation… then that would be great.

As he said that, Fang Ping turned his attention to Huang Jing again. “We can sell our shares now.”

Huang Jing raised his eyebrows. He could not help but stare at him, hissing, “Stop framing others randomly!”

This was no joking matter.

Fang Ping chuckled. “I’m really not making false accusations on others. Brother Wang can be my witness. The other party disclosed both their names earlier, right? Even if this person was from the evil sect, a Peak Rank-6 powerhouse had disclosed his accomplice. Whether it is true or not, we still need to investigate this, right?”

Beside him, Wang Jinyang nodded, saying, “Indeed. I’ve heard it too.”

As soon as he said those words, Huang Jing spoke no more.

As long as Fang Ping did not make up this crazy nonsense and had evidence, then it was inevitable for them to look for trouble.

They could not treat it like they had not heard a thing. Since the other party had disclosed their accomplices, they must investigate whether it was true or not. Even if they were proven to have wrongly accused the other party, they could only apologize.

…

Sun City. House of Commander.

When he sensed a few auras coming from outside, Wu Chuan rubbed his forehead gently. So many actually came. If this matter was handled carelessly, then there would be a big problem.

“Have the guys from the two major companies arrived?”

Bai Jinshan who was the weakest dared not utter a word. The one who responded was Auspicious Sun’s commander. He said with respect, “Guardian, the guys from the two major companies are already on their way. However, they’re coming from Capital City, so they still need some time.

“Other than that, Military Department Commander Zhou, Education Ministry Minister Wang and the Department of Investigation Services Minister Hu… are all on their way.

“The ministers said that they’ll handle this matter together after they arrive.”

Wu Chuan nodded slightly. It was the New Year. With this whole thing unfolding, everyone might not be able to enjoy the New Year anymore.

Also… both Fang Ping and Wang Jinyang by themselves were worthy to be taken seriously.

A Rank-5 golden bones; a Rank-5 born from imperishable substance.

This matter needed to be taken seriously too.

How many people like this were out there?

Yao Chengjun, Li Hansong… How many were yet to be discovered?

Or perhaps they had been discovered but gone into hiding?

If all of them had such distinctive traits… did that not mean that there would be significant changes in certain things!

Were these people really powerhouses who were Rank-8 and stronger?

Would they also recover their abilities at lightning speed?

Sometimes, it might not be a good thing to have too many unfamiliar powerhouses.

Who knew whether these guys were good or bad or did not have other intentions.

How were they supposed to treat these guys?

Right now it seemed that they were all a bunch of young martial artists. Their abilities were not strong either. Sino Nation could almost disregard their existence. After all, paragon powerhouses could suppress everything.

However, these guys were the prodigies of the present era. If things were not handled well, it might easily trigger a chain reaction too.

MCMAU Fang Ping, CCMAU Li Hansong, and FMS Yao Chengjun. Did none of them have a Grandmaster supporting them?

The more he thought about it, the more Wu Chuan’s head hurt.

If he had known, he would not have come. He should have just left this matter to others.

Right now, he was the only Rank-9 there. The incident happened in the south. He, a guardian in the south, also carried the title as the highest leader of a few southern provinces.

Wu Chuan was still stuck in his troubled thoughts when he could already sense a few auras approaching outside the building.

After a moment, half-skeletal Fang Ping walked in the door with much pomp and glory.

When Wu Chuan saw Fang Ping’s appearance, he knew that this kid was up to no good. He frowned. “Wear your clothes!”

Fang Ping shook his head. “I’m too heavily injured. Wearing clothes can hinder my recovery.”

“You…”

Wu Chuan really wished to bash him up, yet he was worried about killing this kid at the same time.

Also, he suspected that if he hit this kid now, Fang Ping would make him heal his injuries with the imperishable substance again.

The rest did not utter a word. When MCMAU’s higher-ups had entered the building, only then did they start greeting each other.

When he saw Wu Kuishan walking through the door, Wu Chuan did not remain in his seat. Instead, he stood up and gave a gentle nod to acknowledge him.

As a graduate from MCMAU, even if he was a Rank-9, he still needed to show respect toward MCMAU’s vice-chancellor whenever necessary.

Wu Kuishan exchanged greetings as well. They took their seats respectively.

Wu Chuan waited for them to sit down before saying, “Let’s wait for a moment. The rest are about to arrive now.”

“Alright.”

Wu Kuishan said very few words. Old Man Li and the rest did not even say a word.

Upon seeing this situation, Wu Chuan knew that this was no simple matter.

As for Fang Ping, he was just about to break the silence and curry favor with the Grandmasters when the look on his face changed. He trotted out the door, asking whilst he was still really far away, “Vice-chancellor Chen, why are you here?”

After landing, Chen Yaoting saw a half-skeleton running out. First, he was stunned. Then, his expression changed, asking, “Can you recover?”

“I think…so?”

Fang Ping answered doubtfully. He figured that he could, though the consumption involved would definitely be substantial.

“That’s good…”

Chen Yaoting heaved a sigh of relief. If you, kid, could not recover, was my granddaughter supposed to date a half-skeleton man then?

When he thought of this, Chen Yaoting looked rather ghastly all of a sudden.

Motherf*cker. He was initially having a great reunion dinner. When this incident happened, he was practically kicked out of the house by his granddaughter.

If it was not because of the fact that it was troublesome to bring someone along, his granddaughter would be here right now.

He had told her earlier that he was in SCMAU. It would already be too late when he arrived. There were also powerhouses nearby who had gone over. In the end, she insisted he make a trip in the middle of the night.

Without paying any more attention to Fang Ping, Chen Yaoting went inside the building too.

Wu Chuan had actually sensed his presence. When he saw Chen Yaoting here, Wu Chuan was actually slightly surprised. This matter had nothing to do with SCMAU, right?

Chen Yaoting was the first out of all Rank-7 in Sino Nation. His golden body was nearly at hand. He could not be treated as a typical Rank-7.

Chen Yaoting saw the puzzled look on Wu Chuan’s face and said faintly, “I’m only here to help.”

Wu Chuan nodded slightly, darting Fang Ping a look. This kid… had a huge network.

Fang Ping did not look at him. This was not appropriate to disclose.

He was not prepared for Chen Yaoting’s arrival. The messages he sent earlier were for the MCMAU powerhouses. He did not send the message to Chen Yaoting, though. SCMAU was also quite far from Nanjiang.

Seeing that everyone was waiting, Fang Ping asked suddenly, “Why don’t we use this time to bring both of them in?”

This captured everyone’s attention. Fang Ping said, “Before I killed the Peak Rank-6 martial artist earlier, I’ve gotten the names of two accomplices out of him. Both their statuses are not low at all. Even their abilities are not weak either!”

Wu Chuan asked instantly, “Why didn’t you say this earlier?”

Fang Ping said calmly, “I’m afraid that accidents will happen. Why don’t we trouble Guardian Wu and the vice-chancellor to make a trip to Nanjiang and capture them first…”

Wu Chuan humphed softly. There was no limit to this kid’s paranoia.

Was it necessary to send a Rank-9 and Rank-8 together to capture someone?

But, since that was what Fang Ping thought, he did not say much. He asked, “Who?”

“Upright Sun Martial Arts Dojo’s Substitute Director Liu He and Nanjiang pill company’s Zhao Yu… Of course, it may be Zhao Yu x something. Whatever it is, just capture all of them.

“I’m sorry for making both of you make a trip to Nanjiang.

“As for the rest… we’re not trying to offend all of you, Grandmasters. But for the time being, please stay here for a moment.”

Commander Bai’s expression was beyond ghastly. This was not aimed at Fang Ping. Instead, it was directed against both of the names.

“Fang Ping, is what you’re saying true?”

“Absolutely true! President Wang can be my witness. There’s no need for me to target two people whom I don’t even know.”

“Liu He… Zhao Yu…” Commander Bai’s expression looked really grim. After a long pause, he said, “Fine. We won’t leave. Can the Guardian and Vice-chancellor Wu make this trip?”

Wu Chuan was the highest leader in the south. By asking him to take action in person, there was no question as to whether he had the authority to capture them or not.

Wu Chuan took a look at Wu Kuishan. Without wasting any more time, he stood up and walked out.

Wu Kuishan stood up and followed suit. Upright Sun Martial Arts Dojo was an easy one to talk to. Zhao Yu… he was the leader in charge at Nanjiang’s pill company!

They were familiar with him even though Fang Ping did not know him.

A Peak Rank-6. He was no weakling now.

In Nanjiang Province, there were not many Rank-6s to start with, needless to say Peak. After adding on the martial arts universities, Military Department and Education Department, there were more or less 10 of them.

All of a sudden, both of them were about to fall. This was a big deal.

Although both of them were not higher-ups of the core departments, they should not be underestimated too.

Both powerhouses left very quickly. With their speed, they would arrive in River City really soon.

Everyone in the concourse fell silent. Right now, none of them moved. They could not leave at this moment. Otherwise, they would be drawing fire upon themselves.

As for Fang Ping, he no longer cared about these things anymore. He hinted at Wang Jinyang, pointing at his chest.

Wang Jinyang frowned slightly. This kid was asking him to make it worse?

Was that necessary?

Fine… Maybe there might be some effects… Wang Jinyang was helpless. He thought for a moment, the injuries on his chest cracked open slightly, lots of blood flowed out.

This time, the look on many Grandmasters’ faces was that of an astonished one.

Other things aside, if Zhao Yu was confirmed to have a problem… The pill company would never get away with this without paying a substantial amount.

Even though they had nothing to do with the two major companies, right now, these two kids had started suspecting them… the Grandmasters figured that it was necessary for them to be worried for the two major companies.
