Chapter 256: Bury the Bones, Wind!
At this moment.
Dong Haimei and Jiang Ziqiu, along with others, arrived at the entrance to the rooftop of Century Building, but were blocked by Guo Binglong.
"President Guo, please let us through."
Dong Haimei said.
They were all from Han City, with Dong Haimei being the First Person of Han City, and Guo Binglong ranking directly below her, at second place in Han City.
However, at this moment, Guo Binglong was not afraid of her, he said: "Do you know who is up there? Hehe, he is a Half-step Master, Wang Zanggu. Whoever he wants to deal with, who would dare to intervene? Perhaps if you requested the presence of that esteemed master your Dong Family sacrifices for, Master Wang Zanggu might show some respect, but he's not here. What makes you think he would show you any respect?"
Dong Haimei frowned.
Jiang Ziqiu then followed up saying: "Hai Mei, never mind him. They said it was his own doing, seeking his own death. It's not our business!"
At that time.
They heard the sound of a real fierce wind coming from the rooftop.
Guo Binglong became excited and said, "It seems that the battle has started! I really want to see how powerful a Half-step Master is! Too bad I'm only tasked with minding the door."
Upon hearing this, Dong Haimei bit her lip and immediately took out her phone to make a call.
"Hai Mei, you... you aren't really going to request the help of that esteemed master for that fool, are you? His presence is worth hundreds of millions; it's not worth it for that kid!" Jiang Ziqiu said.
Although all the major families have revered masters they sacrifice for,
aside from offering them substantial wealth to enjoy or to purchase cultivation resources yearly, every time they are requested to take action, it also costs money.
Dong Haimei ignored him, continuing to make her call.
But the call was not getting through.
This caused a look of anxiety between her brows.
On the rooftop.
The wild wind howled like the laughing of devils.
Wang Zanggu smiled at Qin Feng and said, "Now, let me show you just how vast the gap between a Half-step Master and you really is."
Following that.
He drew up his inner strength and sent a palm strike towards the howling wind.
Instantly.
The wild wind seemed to have lines in it, surging towards Qin Feng.
Wherever it passed,
The rooftop's water towers, as well as some of the pebbles on the roof, all received streak marks!
As if cut by countless knives!
"Hehe, how does it feel?" Zhao Tianba snickered proudly on the side.
"Not bad."
Qin Feng nodded calmly, saying, "Judging by the power of this wind, it's very strong. Clearly, he has entered the realm of a Half-step Master quite some time ago and has accumulated a lot of inner strength."
"Haha, when my Master was young, he was one of the strongest on Five Rings Mountain. His reputation was not for nothing!"
"This move could slice apart the flesh of a lion entirely with wind blades, leaving behind only a skeleton, hence my Master's name of 'Zanggu' (Bone Burying)!"
"It's just that the old man has hit a bottleneck in recent years and has struggled to break through to become a Grandmaster; otherwise, he would be the strongest king on Five Rings Mountain!"
"I'm afraid you, a commoner from the mortal world, don't even know what 'Five Rings Mountain' is, do you?"
"To put it simply, it's an existence you cannot afford to provoke!"
"As long as he gets that secret book from Fang Wudi, maybe my Master can become a true Grandmaster! By then, in the whole of Five Rings Mountain, no, under the entire heavens, how many could stand against my Master? At that time, in front of my Master, you will be less than an ant, hahahaha..."
Zhao Tianba laughed triumphantly.
Who knew.
Laughing as he was, the fierce wind suddenly stopped!
What happened?
Zhao Tianba was puzzled for a moment.
Thump!
He saw his Master, Wang Zanggu, suddenly kneeling on the ground.
"Ma-Master?"
Zhao Tianba stared with wide eyes, bewildered. Why would his Master suddenly kneeling before Qin Feng?
"I was blind and ignorant, please, Master, spare my life!!"
Wang Zanggu knelt on both knees toward Qin Feng.
"..."
Zhao Tianba was completely dumbfounded, not knowing at all what had happened, "Master, what on earth is going on?"
"Kneel down!"
Wang Zanggu sternly ordered him.
There was no choice.
The Master's command meant he had no choice but to kneel.
Qin Feng walked over step by step, and Wang Zanggu kneeled even deeper.
"A wise man submits to the circumstances," Qin Feng looked down at him and said, "From now on, follow me, how about that?"
"What?!"
Wang Zanggu trembled all over upon hearing this, then kneeled even further, excitedly saying, "Good, good, thank you, Master, thank you, Master!!"
Actually, they, like those bosses in the mortal world, also want a backer, and they desire one even more eagerly.
The Hidden World is different from the Mortal World.
The Mortal World has its own social rules, for example, murder and arson are illegal.
But the Hidden World.
It's entirely a world where the strong prey on the weak.
Having a backer could at least ensure one's life.
"I have roughly experienced your Inner Strength. The 'Heaven and Earth Dominating Skill' is different from your cultivation. If you practiced it, it would only backfire, and in severe cases, it could destroy your decades of cultivation progress in an instant," Qin Feng said.
"Yes, yes, thank you for the warning, Master."
Wang Zanggu was drenched in cold sweat.
After Qin Feng said this, he also felt a bit like he was hastily seeking treatment for a dire illness. The path of cultivation considers many aspects; not every treasure can be used.
"I happen to have a set of mental method, I'll give it to you later, it might help you break through."
Qin Feng said.
"Bre-breakthrough?!"
Wang Zanggu's complexion suddenly changed upon hearing this.
If he made a breakthrough.
Wouldn't he become a Grandmaster?!
Isn't that the goal he had been striving for all these years?
"Really?!"
Wang Zanggu said, still in shock.
"Of course."
Qin Feng shrugged, "But I'm busy right now, I'll give it to you when I have the time."
"Thank you, I'm so grateful to you, Master!"
Wang Zanggu kowtowed excitedly.
His forehead thumped loudly against the ground.
"Alright, come find me at Wanfu Building later, I'll be going now, ah, what a waste of my concert time," Qin Feng said.
"Master..."
Wang Zanggu lifted his head, seemingly still in a dream, and said in a daze, "By the way, why are you willing to take me in?"
"Uh, because I like the way you show off."
Qin Feng shrugged.
This guy was really good at showing off, always saying things like 'You scram, you're not worthy to be my opponent' and the like. Qin Feng felt that among his followers, there should be someone who can show off like that. It's not too exhilarating if everyone is like Fang Wudi.
Of course.
The main reason Qin Feng did so was because from his show-off statement, he knew he was not like others in the Hidden World who enjoyed slaughtering the innocent. When he and the group with Guo Binglong had found him, all he said was, "You're not worthy to be my opponents, scram!", just to intimidate them, without actually killing them.
Taking in such a person means he's not lacking in flair, nor does he recklessly cause trouble, which would save a lot of hassle.
Secondly.
It's because he indeed knew a set of a mental method perfectly suited for Wang Zanggu's Inner Strength.
It was just lying around anyway.
It might as well be given to him, also making one more force for his own use.
Of course.
There was a third reason.
He had just heard Zhao Tianba say that Wang Zanggu came from "Five Rings Mountain."
He knew of Five Rings Mountain.
It's a place of extreme brutality, and if he could subdue it in advance, it would be beneficial for himself...
