...

Qin Fang was not sure if any of the Ten Great Hidden Weapons of the Tang Sect had been deciphered, but at least the Storm Pear Blossom was formidable, yet it posed only a negligible threat to him.

Not to mention that Tang Nan had only this one Storm Pear Blossom, even if he had another, Qin Fang could still disregard its existence...

If Qin Fang could break it once, then he could break it a second time, unless Tang Nan had a way to break the current situation and allow the sharp needle of the Storm Pear Blossom to penetrate the body of this extraordinary-looking statue...

Clearly, this was impossible!

No matter how formidable the sharp needle was, this statue was no ordinary object, but a Puppet person Qin Fang had obtained through great hardship. Even Cao Chun using many bombs had not been able to destroy it, which demonstrated its hardness. The close-range lethality of the mere Storm Pear Blossom was almost more dangerous than a gun, but still no match for bombs.

This was Qin Fang's true trump card, always kept nurtured in the Props Box, not even intended to be revealed unless the Storm Pear Blossom was truly formidable.

Now, upon its debut, it instantly killed Tang Nan's trump weapon, directly annihilating all his efforts and completely depriving him of all means.

Gulp~~

Seeing such a scene, Tang Nan's eyes were filled with infinite horror and disbelief, creating an atmosphere so eerie and oppressive that he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

The cave was deathly silent, the sound of a needle dropping could be heard very clearly, making the sound of swallowing even more distinct.

At this point, Tang Nan had completely lost all his momentum, the Storm Pear Blossom was his final trump card, his last lifesaver.

For this last struggle, he directly attacked his fellow sect brother, Tang Wei, just to slightly distract Qin Fang, and then used the Storm Pear Blossom.

It can be said that he had made all preparations for this final struggle, but unfortunately, even this did not let him taste the fruit of victory, ending in a crushing defeat.

Victory was almost within grasp, but he couldn't figure out how Qin Fang managed to bring out such a huge thing, as if by magic, suddenly introducing such a huge object.

Qin Fang was dressed very simply, obviously not hiding anything, let alone such a big thing. Nothing Qin Fang could hide, not to mention someone several times bigger wouldn't be able to conceal such a big thing either.

Yet, it was precisely the appearance of this object that declared all of Tang Nan's efforts void, rendering him no longer a threat to Qin Fang.

A series of blows greatly threatened Tang Nan's confidence, even making him forget his high achievements in martial arts, reaching the level of Mid-Master Level.

Usually, he mostly relied on his hidden weapons for victory during a fight, and although his achievements in martial arts were not low, they clearly were not as dominant as his hidden weapons.

Now that his strongest and most reliable methods were useless, his confidence was naturally greatly damaged, where would he think of other methods?

If he had fought Qin Fang, he might not have suffered such a severe blow. Qin Fang's strength was only comparable to someone at Mid-Master Level, and in a fight, they would be evenly matched, with Qin Fang slightly at a disadvantage.

But now, it was all too late.

Qin Fang simply didn't bother to look at Tang Nan. His original intent was to rescue someone, and the situation with Tang Xin was already very dire. If she didn't receive treatment soon, even if he killed Tang Nan, it would not save Tang Xin's life, which was obviously too great a loss.

He darted out from behind the Puppet person, Tang Nan's heart chilled, his hand raising his short sword, seemingly ready to continue a great battle with Qin Fang.

But Qin Fang completely ignored him, his body swayed, quickly retreating away from him, directly heading towards Tang Xin behind Tang Nan...

While making his move, Qin Fang also immediately retrieved two Detoxification Pills from his hand, and as he approached Tang Xin, he produced a silver light in one hand, instantly using the Silver Needle to seal several of her critical acupoints, blocking the heart meridian to prevent the poison from attacking the heart.

Then he directly lifted the face covering from Tang Xin's face, pinched open her slightly blackened mouth due to poisoning, and swiftly stuffed the two Detoxification Pills into her mouth, then exerting his inner force to help her ingest them...

These two Detoxification Pills were the best quality that Qin Fang had at the moment. As soon as they were administered, Tang Xin's complexion eased quite a lot. Qin Fang observed Tang Xin using his Scouting Skill and noticed that the severe poison in her body had been curbed and was slowly receding, evidently the Detoxification Pills were very effective.

Or perhaps, Qin Fang should be thankful that the severe poisons smeared on the hidden weapons brought by Tang Nan were not the most powerful in the Tang Sect, only considered relatively ordinary, and the Detoxification Pills could easily counter them.

With the toxicity curbed, Tang Xin's crisis could be said to be half resolved. Next, as long as the acupoints holding Tang Xin were released, the task would be complete.

Tang Xin's acupoints were sealed by Tang Zhan, whose strength surpassed both Qin Fang and Song Qingshan by a level, making it extremely difficult to unseal the acupoints.

The art of acupoint sealing has been passed down in many ancient schools, such as the Tang Sect and the Shaolin Temple, which is not surprising at all.

However, when a martial arts expert seals an acupoint, they leave their Inner Breath within that acupoint. Unless one's strength surpasses the sealer, it is impossible to forcefully unseal the acupoint.

Alternatively, knowing the technique to unseal, one can release the Inner Breath trapped in the acupoint, naturally unsealing it.

Qin Fang's strength was definitely inferior to Tang Zhan's. The first method was clearly not viable, and since Qin Fang did not know the unique unsealing techniques of the Tang Sect, the second method was also not viable.

Yet Qin Fang was not entirely out of options, for he had his unique method—unsealing via Silver Needle.

Qin Fang himself did not know acupoint sealing; his master, Cai Pingyuan, had not learned this secret technique either. However, his 'The Nine Revival Needles' contained such a secret technique that allowed the use of a Silver Needle for sealing acupoints... essentially equivalent to a Martial Arts Expert sealing acupoints.

If acupoints can be sealed, naturally they can also be unsealed.

Suddenly, Qin Fang's hand flickered with Silver Needles, transforming into streaks of silver light, as he swiftly pricked several acupoints on Tang Xin's body multiple times...

Hiss~~

After a nearly inaudible sound, the Inner Breath Tang Zhan left in Tang Xin's acupoints was instantly released, allowing her body to recover from the restriction.

Though the acupoints were unsealed, there was still a minute of weakness. Qin Fang had exploited this weakness before, making Tang Xin extremely vulnerable at the moment, not to mention her poisoned wounds were still healing.

Tang Xin's body instantly softened, and she began to collapse towards the ground...

"Tang Xin..."

Qin Fang's expression changed. Tang Xin was extremely vulnerable at the moment and could not suffer further external damage. With a shout, Qin Fang swiftly moved, his long arms embracing, immediately securing Tang Xin's soft waist and steadied her, preventing the tragedy of her falling and getting injured.

This scene was clearly witnessed by Tang Nan.

After the failure of 'Storm Pear Blossom', his confidence was severely shaken. Honestly, he truly did not wish to confront Qin Fang again, so upon realizing Qin Fang was not targeting him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, when he saw Qin Fang and Tang Xin in such an ambiguously intimate "embrace," an unnamed rage surged immediately, and those resentful eyes wished they could shoot countless Sharp Arrows, turning Qin Fang into a porcupine.

Yet, he knew that was an impossibility.

In his heart, Qin Fang had almost become an invincible demon lord, and he could no longer muster the courage to fight again.

Resentment, jealousy, hatred...

But more than that, there was fear, terror, and dread.

Seeing Qin Fang momentarily distracted by Tang Xin, how could Tang Nan let go of such an opportunity? He stopped caring about anyone else and suddenly, his steps burst forth, turning into a fleeting shadow, he rapidly sprinted toward the cave entrance.

Since it was already impossible to defeat Qin Fang, and Tang Xin, the only hostage, was now in Qin Fang's hands, using her to threaten Qin Fang was also impossible.

What followed was an escape. Tang Nan, not one to cling desperately to lost causes, decisively chose to flee.

They were three people when they left the mountain. Now, Tang Wei was dead, and his trump cards were exhausted, but there was still a much stronger Tang Zhan outside, who was his father Tang Yuantao's bodyguard, and finding Tang Zhan meant he might survive.

After all, the mountain was deep with dense foliage; with his and Tang Zhan's strength, they could easily escape back to the Tang Sect. Once he reported this matter to his father, he could seek revenge for all the hatred he harbored...

"Tang Xin, you will still end up in my hands..."

Even as he left, he couldn't let go of Tang Xin, still intent on possessing her.

"Thinking of leaving? It's not that easy..."

Tang Nan was indeed very fast, but he still couldn't escape Qin Fang's perception. Although Qin Fang was worried about Tang Xin's condition and slightly distracted, the slightest movement from Tang Nan was immediately sensed by him.

Sensing Tang Nan's movement, Qin Fang's complexion changed slightly. With a silent cry in his heart, he was also immediately giving instructions to the "statue" in front of him. (To be continued.
