CHAPTER 1906 BACK!
"Fang Qiu has matured very quickly and didn't let Big Boss down," smiled Huang Yuming to himself and felt very comforted.
He had seen for himself how much Fang Qiu had changed. Fang Qiu would never disappoint Jiang Ning, and he would not disappoint the hopes that everyone had in him either.
Meanwhile.
Within Mount Zhongnan.
At the Fang house.
It had been quite a while since Fang Qiu became the head of the Fang clan.
Besides practicing his martial arts daily and increasing his own capabilities, Fang Qiu spent the rest of his time and energy in getting the eight reclusive clans together to unravel the secrets behind this manual.
The message he sent to everyone was very clear.
Unravelling this secret wasn't for the sake of the Fang clan or even for Jiang Ning, but of the sake of the entire martial arts circle.
The other seven reclusive clans could sense Fang Qiu's sincerity, so even though some of them were a little reluctant at first, they were all very cooperative now.
They sent their Senior Elders to help decipher the words, so all of them went from being martial artists to scholars instead.
"Master Fang, why don't you rest for a while. You haven't slept properly in several days now, so even though you're still young, your body won't be able to hold up for long either."
The elders felt bad for Fang Qiu when they saw how hard he worked.
In the beginning, they didn't want to acknowledge Fang Qiu as the head of the clan. They were all frightened into submission by Jiang Ning, so they didn't have a choice at first.
They had watched Fang Qiu grow up and none of them thought that this boy would be any good.
But after spending time with him, they realized that Fang Qiu was much more outstanding than everyone else!
His sense of responsibility and maturity really impressed them. After he became the head of the clan, he put the weight of the entire clan on his own shoulders and never slacked off. © 2024.
"I'm fine, Third Elder. I feel that I still haven't fully comprehended the moves you taught me the last time. Do teach me more when you have time.”
Even though he had someone as powerful as Jiang Ning as his master, Fang Qiu never relaxed on the demands he made of himself. He wanted to learn and practice more, and to expose himself to a wider variety of things.
That was because Jiang Ning had told him before that he had to carve a road out for himself, and he ought to try all sorts of things in order to truly find a boxing technique that suited him.
"If you don't take a rest, I won't teach you,” said the elder a little angrily as he shook his head. "I'm not kidding. If you collapse, then what's going to happen to the Fang clan in the future?"
Fang Qiu laughed.
"And that Master of yours too. If he thinks that we made you so tired that you collapsed, how are we going to be answerable to him?" grumbled the elder. "We really don't dare to provoke him, you know?"
This was the truth.
In fact, nobody in Mount Zhongnan dared to provoke Jiang Ning.
Fang Qiu laughed loudly and waved his hands about. "Alright, alright, I get it, I get it. I'll go and rest now."
He got up and returned to his room. He did feel rather tired.
But he felt that no matter how tired he felt, as long as he could help the Fang clan reach greater heights, he could help Jiang Ning, he could discover the secrets of the manual, and he could understand the responsibility of the man who was supposed to be his father, then all of this effort was worth it.
Fang Qiu took off his coat and had just lay down on the bed when his gaze suddenly became cold and sharp. He jumped up from the bed in an instant and pulled out a dagger from the side of the bed.
"Who is it?"
He was extremely wary and his expression was very stern now. His voice sounded murderous.
There was a terrifying presence in the room!
"I can't believe that my clan has been controlled by a young punk like you," came a voice from behind the screen. Fang Yin walked out and narrowed his eyes at Fang Qiu as he looked the young man up and
down.
"Who are you?"
Fang Qiu had never seen Fang Yin before, and besides, Fang Yin had changed to another face now.
"You ought to call me Second Elder," scoffed Fang Yin. "Jiang Ning is really scheming. For the sake of the manual, he actually made you the head of the Fang clan. Is he trying to ruin everything the Fang clan was built on?”
"Humph! You actually dare to come back!" Fang Qiu roared and gripped the dagger in his hands tightly. "The one who nearly ruined everything the Fang clan was built on was you!"
