Qin Fang exchanged contact information with Ji Xiang and Lai Wen, but then they drove away separately, as if they had never met before.

There are still quite a few assassins hiding in the shadows of Jiangzhou, almost all attracted by the hefty bounty, so Qin Fang had to act cautiously.

Apart from these numerous assassins, Qin Fang also had many enemies remaining in Jiangzhou, and if they happened to collide, it might ignite someone's anger, who knows what they might do?

Precisely because of this, Qin Fang thought it over and felt that keeping Ji Xiang as a "free agent" was a very good idea.

This way, Ji Xiang would still be Killer Black Night, and his target was still to assassinate Qin Fang. However, after meeting with Qin Fang, the two of them had already planned to put on a great show together...

The relationship between Ji Xiang and Qin Fang was known only to the three of them present, with no fourth person being aware, and those outside certainly had no idea.

If Qin Fang were to draw the enemy's fire in the open, while also defending against sneak attacks from the shadows and effectively retaliating...

It all seemed so normal, almost without any flaws.

But if someone like a scavenger suddenly appeared secretly and eliminated those shadowy assassins or enemies, wouldn't it be much easier?

Just like that, Qin Fang and Ji Xiang parted ways, but secretly kept in contact. Moreover, with Lai Wen, a hacker expert, finding Qin Fang's whereabouts was not difficult at all.

When Qin Fang returned to the hotel, Chu Yunxuan and Helen had also returned. For safety reasons, they almost never came out once they entered the room, and only relaxed after seeing Qin Fang return safely.

By this time, it was quite late into the night, well past midnight. The two beauties, previously tense, couldn't fall asleep at all. But now that Qin Fang was back, their nerves settled, and they almost immediately fell asleep...

Looking at the two stunning sleeping beauties, Qin Fang didn't have the mood to disturb them. After settling them in, he sat down to contemplate some of the recent plans.

"Looks like I've gained a lot this time..."

Recalling the events of the night, Qin Fang couldn't help but feel delighted.

Although he didn't kill Ji Xiang, the Master Level Peak assassin, he received no item rewards or experience points, but he still felt he had gained a lot.

Ji Xiang's strength was formidable, almost equal to Qin Fang's. Qin Fang pondered that if he gave him the bottle of Golden Dragon Saliva, Ji Xiang might break through to Grandmaster Level faster than Qin Fang would...

Of course, being faster is only relative and doesn't guarantee a breakthrough. Many have been stuck at this point for life due to bad luck.

Even if such unfortunate ones took the Spiritual Medicine, they might still stagnate, which isn't surprising.

However, Qin Fang speculated that Ji Xiang's luck might not be that bad. With his good aptitude and years of battling experience, he was only a step away from the Grandmaster Level threshold. With the help of the Golden Dragon Saliva, there's more than a 50% chance of success...

50% might not seem high, but it's far better than many who remain stuck at Master Level Peak until death.

With such high odds, it's nearly as certain as a sure thing, only a matter of time before stepping into Grandmaster Level.

"A Grandmaster Level assassin... Tsk, tsk, if I really had such a subordinate, many people would tremble and fear!"

Thinking of Ji Xiang possibly advancing to Grandmaster Level early, Qin Fang couldn't help but feel excited. Such a figure is like a killing god, almost impossible to defend against.

Yet at the same time, Qin Fang was a bit worried.

His own strength was only at Master Level Peak, and while he could barely be considered a Semi-Grandmaster when exploding his strength, he wasn't quite a Grandmaster yet.

While he could currently suppress Ji Xiang with absolute power, if Ji Xiang reached Grandmaster Level, Qin Fang might find himself at a huge disadvantage...

Qin Fang kept this potential trouble in mind, as it could be a latent threat or may just be over-worrying.

For now, since Ji Xiang hadn't yet broken through, Qin Fang wouldn't be overly concerned.

"Looks like my trip to Japan can increase the number of team members..."

Thinking of Ji Xiang's strength, Qin Fang naturally thought of his Slaughter Sun Special Team, which originally had only three members. Now Ji Xiang could join them.

This meant that all four of them had strength above Master Level Late Stage, each with their own skills. If they went to Japan, they wouldn't be underestimated. It would greatly aid Qin Fang's future plans.

"Oh, and bring Lai Wen along too..."

Besides, Qin Fang wouldn't forget about Lai Wen, the hacker, whose role was enormous. Though currently not very useful against assassins hidden in Jiangzhou, he would be of great help during Qin Fang's upcoming trip to Japan.

Qin Fang was heading to Japan to help Qin Zi take control of the Shiling Group, facing not only the powerful and entrenched Dao Shen Sect, but also internal strife within the Shiling Group...

With Lai Wen as a hacker backing them up, Qin Fang could trim some people's wings in minor aspects before officially starting hostilities, making his mission much easier.

"The trip to Japan... It seems important to secure the rear first!"

Qin Fang had been eager for his planned trip to Japan, but recognized that not everything at his base was stable yet.

The Tang Sect people were now in Jiangzhou, led personally by Tang Huaiyuan. Although Qin Fang didn't know why they hadn't made a move yet, he realized they were definitely waiting for the right opportunity.

Moreover, the one whom Qin Fang had secretly issued a kill order on, whose hefty bounty attracted so many assassins, was causing quite a headache.

Despite just having resolved the challenging Killer Black Night and gaining him as an ally, Qin Fang couldn't be certain how many more such experts were lurking. He needed to quell these disturbances quickly to prevent them from affecting his subsequent actions... (To be continued.
