Almighty Genius

Chapter 1358: The Master Hidden in the City (Part 2)


"How can mere flesh withstand such sharp-edged weapons?"

Wu Jian's mind was filled with questions, but in reality, that's what happened. Song Qingshan appeared just in time and blocked several machetes with one arm.

However, there wasn't a single mark on his arm, as if the thugs weren't chopping at Song Qingshan's arm, but at a hard steel ingot instead.

Not only was Wu Jian astonished, but the girl Bingbing also wore a look of disbelief, and those thugs looked as if they had seen a ghost.

If it weren't for the fact that they were adversaries, they would have wanted to check if Song Qingshan's arm was a prosthetic.

"You should take her inside..."

Song Qingshan remained indifferent. At his level of strength, he was nearly at the peak of the Grandmaster level, and the Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Training Golden Bell Shield he had mastered reached a terrifying level, almost achieving invulnerability to swords and guns...

If these blades were wielded by a Grandmaster-level expert, Song Qingshan might still have been wary, as techniques empowered by True Qi are far more terrifying than mere strength, even more than triple.

But these thugs were all ordinary people, and some lacked even basic Strength, relying solely on the sharpness of their blades.

Once the sharpness of the blades couldn't be brought into play, their threat significantly decreased... they were utterly ignored by Song Qingshan.

"Just had something to eat, time to exercise..."

Having safely escorted Wu Jian away, only Song Qingshan and these thugs were left. This usually stoic person surprisingly cracked a joke.

However, only Qin Fang and his group found it amusing; the thugs couldn't laugh at all. They were utterly outmatched by someone unscathed by blades.

Clatter~~

Thud~~

Upon hearing Song Qingshan's words, the thugs turned pale with fright, dropping their machetes to the ground with crisp sounds. Some were so scared they knelt, crying with snot and tears.

"Boss... We... we'll never dare again... Please just treat us as a fart and let us go..."

"Boss, I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child..."

These were just petty thugs, hardly to be expected to have much grit. Seeing this formidable person about to act, they wailed for mercy pitifully, which indeed tugged at the heartstrings.

Bam bam bam bam bam bam~~

Whether their pleas had any effect was hard to say because Song Qingshan swiftly kicked each one away at lightning speed, piling them up into a "small hill" outside the barbecue restaurant.

"Scram..."

Before the thugs could cry out in pain, they heard Song Qingshan's cold voice, as if a Five Elements hand strangled their throats, silencing them instantly...

Granted amnesty, the thugs endured the pain, scrambled up, and disappeared swiftly, leaving their boss behind...

Song Qingshan also ignored the thug boss who was already unconscious with a bloody head, casually returning to sit with Qin Fang as if nothing had happened.

"Qin Fang, that guy... Will he be alright?"

Despite being a privileged young master, Wu Jian didn't revel in insolence or lawlessness, and he looked at the unconscious thug with concern.

"He'll live..."

Qin Fang glanced carelessly at the thug, dismissing Wu Jian's worry immediately.

To Wu Jian, Qin Fang was like an almighty deity; if he said something, it must be right, so he stopped worrying.

The girl Bingbing clung close to Wu Jian, cautiously observing Song Qingshan and Qin Fang, less concerned about Kong Er or Qu Da.

At that moment, Qin Fang and Song Qingshan stood up and walked straight towards the barbecue restaurant owner, also Bingbing's father.

"Senior..."

To the surprise of Kong Er, Qu Da, and even Wu Jian and Bingbing, Qin Fang and Song Qingshan reached the barbecue restaurant owner, cupping their hands in a respectful gesture.

"Uh..."

Everyone was dumbfounded, especially Wu Jian and Bingbing, who felt they were seeing an illusion.

The barbecue owner hesitated, casting a strange look at Qin Fang and Song Qingshan. His eyes initially showed confusion, quickly replaced by sharpness, and his aura dramatically changed.

Such a change made the people present feel that this seemingly ordinary barbecue owner was anything but simple.

Particularly Bingbing, who was stupefied since, as the owner's daughter, she knew less about her father than these outsiders, Qin Fang and Song Qingshan.

"From the Tianying Sect?"

The owner glanced at Song Qingshan and softly inquired.

The question didn't truly need answering. Although Song Qingshan never showcased any Eagle Claw Skill, one could deduce just by looking at his fingers.

"And you are... Snow Mountain Sect?"

Turning his gaze to Qin Fang, a hint of uncertainty colored the owner's enquiry.

"No, you're from the Demon Sect..."

Before Qin Fang could reply, the owner's expression grew serious, indicating sensitivity to the Demon Sect association.

"Neither, just an average person... happened to learn some Snow Mountain Sect and Demon Sect skills!"

Qin Fang shook his head; although he had no ties to those sects, he did not hide possessing their techniques.

The Traceless Snow Stepping Technique is a Snow Mountain Sect's secret light skill, and the Demonic Divine Art is inseparably tied to the Demon Sect...

The seemingly ordinary barbecue owner could identify Qin Fang's martial arts through just his eyes, suggesting his identity and skills were anything but simple.

"I see..."

The owner easily accepted Qin Fang's explanation but quickly turned to ask, "How did you recognize me?"

"Actually, we recognized you from a painting in your restaurant..."

Qin Fang smiled, pointing to a painting on the restaurant's wall.

The barbecue restaurant outside was plain, yet clean inside, with decorative calligraphy and paintings on the walls, preventing monotony.

Qin Fang and his group noticed this upon entering, especially when seeing one landscape painting, which left Qin Fang and Song Qingshan momentarily stunned, unlike Kong Er or Qu Da, as they were outsiders.

"The painting in the restaurant... I see!"

Understanding dawned upon the barbecue owner hearing Qin Fang's explanation...(To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation.)
