Actually, that faint sense of existence Qin Fang felt cannot yet be fully called the True Qi Seed; it's at most a prototype.

But with this little prototype, at least it proves that Qin Fang's method is correct and feasible. The crucial moment is now!

"True Qi Seed... Condense!!"

Qin Fang fully concentrated on it, allowing his own True Qi to circulate completely, cautiously touching the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi while guarding Tang Cheng's meridians.

To be precise, Qin Fang aims to protect the prototype of the True Qi Seed within Tang Cheng's meridians, starting its condensation, gathering the originally loose and non-existent Qi into a real force, gradually forming a genuine True Qi—only then is the goal truly achieved...

This process is very delicate. Fortunately, Qin Fang is like a bug in existence. Although he has not yet entered the Grandmaster Level, his control of his True Qi is no worse than those veteran Grandmaster-level experts...

Although Tang Cheng is considered a master among ordinary people, he is still below Grandmaster Level. Qin Fang's strength is several tiers above his, which reduces the difficulty significantly...

Accompanied by Qin Fang's loud shout, a powerful True Qi suddenly erupted from him, instantly rushing into Tang Cheng's meridians, forcibly gathering the scattered Qi.

Simultaneously, he arrogantly wrapped all of Tang Cheng's residual Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi released from the Golden Dragon Saliva, forcibly reclaiming it to his own body...

Injecting True Qi into another's body is a huge risk, requiring very careful control, which is extremely dangerous and consuming... Qin Fang's instant Qi outburst almost made his face turn pale.

Yet Qin Fang still withdrew safely, taking those Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi with him, and with his strength, he quickly absorbed the remaining scant amount, which might even supplement him greatly...

Reaching this step, Qin Fang's tasks are all completed. Next, it's up to Tang Cheng himself to slowly comprehend the True Qi Seed and condense his own True Qi.

Meanwhile, Qin Fang focused on refining the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi reclaimed from Tang Cheng. This Qi from the Golden Dragon Saliva is not something Qin Fang dared to use much normally due to fears of his body and strength unable to bear it. Now the remaining amount isn't much, so refining it won't be too difficult.

...

Outside the Valley.

"Do you think... the Boss will be alright?"

Scarface and the others had already returned, but knowing Qin Fang's instructions from Iron Head, they dared not disturb and could only wait outside obediently.

But as time passed minute by minute, aside from the initial few screams from inside, there was no more sound. To say they weren't worried would be lying.

The faster time passed, the more uneasy they felt...

"I don't think Xiao Qin is the unreliable type. If he says it's no problem, then there definitely is no problem..."

Iron Head was naturally quite worried as well, but having caused a ruckus and overturned the situation successfully with Qin Fang, Qin Fang transformed in his eyes from that kid brother to Superman with underwear on the outside... you could say he almost worshiped him like a deity.

"But... there's no sound from inside at all, truly..."

Scarface, having a good relationship with Qin Fang besides Tang Cheng, knew Qin Fang's temperament, yet waiting like this also makes him feel a bit uneasy.

"Stop overthinking! The Boss is Xiao Qin's brother-in-law; he will definitely handle it well..."

Mouse and Zi Dan also stood up, expressing this; though worried inside, they repeatedly reassured themselves aloud.

"Hmph... I'm not dead yet!"

Almost at this moment, a very dissatisfied snort was heard in their ears, immediately shocking everyone present.

"Boss..."

Then, almost simultaneously, everyone exclaimed, focusing their attention on Tang Cheng emerging from the valley's entrance, seemingly overlooking Qin Fang's presence.

Some, like Scarface and Iron Head, who had more mischievous dispositions, even screamed while rushing towards Tang Cheng...

Bam bam bam~~

Unfortunately, Tang Cheng quickly kicked away several members who got close, accompanying rather exaggerated screams.

"Brother Cheng, next time go easy..."

Beside them, Qin Fang watched, sweating, quietly muttering a bit, then quickly moved to the unfortunate ones, swiftly reducing their injuries significantly.

Tang Cheng suddenly gained a full body of True Qi, although not particularly strong, it's much greater than before. He hasn't fully adapted, thus his actions were a bit heavy-handed—hence... some bad luck occurred!

"Cough, cough..."

Tang Cheng also noticed this issue, feeling somewhat embarrassed, he could only cough dryly to cover his awkwardness, immediately drawing a burst of laughter from his other subordinates.

However, no one really minded it. They had been kicked by Tang Cheng quite a few times. Although this time Tang Cheng seemed to have kicked harder, seeing that Tang Cheng had recovered completely, they simply brushed off these minor things... just looking at Scarface and Iron Head's injuries barely taken care of, yet immediately gathering around Tang Cheng showed their attitude.

"Qin Fang, there's nothing here for you, you should head back to Hong Kong Island to be with Feifei..."

Tang Cheng had recovered completely, not only without any signs of weakness, but instead it seemed like his entire body was filled with endless energy, completely unlike someone who was near death from serious injuries not long ago.

Even when speaking with Qin Fang, his voice was vigorous, without the slightest hint of anomaly.

"Brother Cheng, you're being a bit ruthless in burning bridges after crossing the river. I've helped you quite a lot here; there's no need to ask me to leave right away..."

Qin Fang responded with a bitter smile. This brother-in-law was really not giving him any face; he had just healed him, and immediately he was sent away... this change of face was too quick.

Actually, Qin Fang was still a bit worried about Tang Cheng.

To put it simply, Tang Cheng's True Qi Seed had formed, making him leap from being an Outer Sect expert, crossing what could metaphorically be considered an 'insurmountable chasm', to become a true Inner Sect expert...

But there were too many obvious opportunistic elements involved, and this was the first time Qin Fang had done this, completely based on his own guesswork, also worried there might be some aftereffects...

Having him nearby meant that if anything went wrong, Qin Fang could promptly intervene to save him. But if Qin Fang left and any abnormalities arose, then Qin Fang would undoubtedly regret it immensely.

"This place is extremely dangerous and our opponents are very strong; staying here won't be much help..."

Brother-in-law seemed determined to send him away, unceremoniously indicating that, even erasing the merits Qin Fang earned previously for helping them out.

"Brother Cheng..."

Qin Fang wore a bitter smile, knowing all too well what his brother-in-law Tang Cheng was thinking. If he could persuade him, Qin Fang would even consider tying Tang Cheng up and taking him to safety.

And it was because he knew Tang Cheng wouldn't give up, he didn't stop him from continuing to stay.

Tang Cheng shared the same thoughts, not wanting Qin Fang to stay and take risks.

"Boss, I think it's good for Xiao Qin to stay... with so many people, someone is bound to get hurt, and Xiao Qin not only has great gunmanship, but excellent medical skills too. Having one more army medic is more of a safety net for us!"

Scarface, with a glance from Qin Fang, understood and immediately pleaded for Qin Fang's case.

Of course, his reasoning was very logical, perhaps he had this in mind all along.

Mercenaries get injured easily, and these special forces warriors are the same; getting hurt is a common occurrence, and losing one's life is also very normal.

Armies typically have medics and battlefield doctors for combat, but special squads like these usually don't have such configurations, at most members have some training in this area, but they're clearly different from official doctors.

Qin Fang might not be an official doctor, but he's skilled in stopping bleeding and treating bone injuries, which are the most common they face.

"Yeah, Boss... just let Xiao Qin stay! He's much better than me..."

Iron Head immediately added.

Qin Fang's earlier performance left him shocked; his level was indeed much higher, and if compared, he felt Qin Fang seemed even more capable than their boss, Tang Cheng.

"Boss, let Xiao Qin stay..."

The others looked at each other and couldn't help but agree.

"You guys..."

Tang Cheng's face immediately turned rather unsightly, he seemed on the verge of losing his temper but didn't know how to direct it at his subordinates.

Looking at Qin Fang's seemingly accomplished smirk, in his heart, he wished he could deliver a heavy punch to that face.

However, he understood Qin Fang stayed for his safety. It was good intention, and with so many people pleading, he couldn't truly refuse.

"Fine, then stay... but your role is the medic, not allowed to participate in any mission or combat!"

"No problem..."

Upon hearing Tang Cheng's words, Qin Fang couldn't help but smile.

Being able to stay, he had achieved his goal. As for whether to act later on, that depended on the situation, something Tang Cheng couldn't predict!(To be continued.
