...

So tragically and unjustly, Tang Huaiming died; he wasn't even able to display his master-level peak strength. The internal injury caused by the bomb significantly impacted him, even if he fully exerted himself, he could only reach about seventy percent of his peak strength...

Qin Fang's strength was also at the master-level peak, although perhaps not quite matching Tang Huaiming, who had been stuck at this realm for many years, he was estimated to reach eight or nine tenths of that strength.

With Qin Fang activating an infinite blood burst, his strength reached more than ninety percent. Pitting ninety percent against seventy, the result was obvious, not to mention Qin Fang's cunning tricks.

Metamorphosis is indeed an excellent secret technique to ambush people; Qin Fang himself had a sudden flash of inspiration and instantly thought of this move...

Sure enough, this sudden attack caught Tang Huaiming off guard, ultimately rendering him into a near-death state by Ding Chen's strike... But once he couldn't resist, Qin Fang had no pressure in killing Tang Huaiming.

Facing the enemies who intended to kill him, Qin Fang never showed mercy; none of the Tang Sect disciples were spared, all of them slain by him.

Of course, during the fierce battle with Tang Huaiming, Qin Fang was fully engrossed, the divine sword in Tang Huaiming's hand gave Qin Fang significant pressure, making it hard for him to focus elsewhere.

During this period, Qin Fang wasn't sure if any Tang Sect disciple survived luckily; perhaps there was a fish that slipped through the net.

"Who cares, even if one or two survive, so what?"

With everyone dead turning into corpses, they no longer appeared on Qin Fang's small map. There was no way to confirm the death toll, so he stopped here.

"Eh, the police are here…"

Just after killing Tang Huaiming, Qin Fang didn't even have time to tidy up, swiftly grabbed the divine sword from Tang Huaiming's hand, exhibited the Snow Traversing Step, and quickly vanished into the darkness.

Qin Fang had already prepared beforehand, never showed his face in front of the Tang Sect disciples, even if someone saw his face, no one would suspect Qin Fang.

Of course, if the Tang Sect disciples suspicion arose, Qin Fang would be their primary suspect, yet expecting these Tang Sect disciples to cooperate with the police was absolutely impossible.

It's akin to robbers and police teaming up to rob a bank that kind of logic…

Besides, Qin Fang's identity was special, though the Tang Sect wanted to kill Qin Fang, they wouldn't openly charge forward to kill him, they'd likely choose a discreet opportunity to strike.

Anyway, it had already come to this point, Qin Fang didn't care if the feud with the Tang Sect grew larger.

After all it's just one life, he killed Tang Nan, Tang Huaiyuan wanted to take his life, then killing a dozen Tang sect disciples, Tang Huaiyuan would still only want his life.

As the saying goes, killing one is breaking even, killing two is making a profit, killing three earns a pair... killing these dozen, Qin Fang had profited a lot, not to mention this included Tang Nan's uncle and Tang Huaiyuan's brother, Tang Huaiming.

Just this one Tang Huaiming, Qin Fang's strike already paid off, enough to make Tang Huaiyuan ache again...

Moreover, the divine sword in Tang Huaiming's hand had already fallen into Qin Fang's possession.

Qin Fang quietly left before the police arrived. Although the police sealed off the roads and thoroughly checked pedestrians, still couldn't touch a hair of Qin Fang.

Effortlessly crossing the police blockade, Qin Fang headed straight for the hotel; with the Tang Sect almost wiped out, the hidden threat was eliminated, Qin Fang naturally needed not to worry so much.

Qin Fang didn't go to Chu Yunxuan's room to rest, but instead went to Shen Liang, and it was right next to Chu Yunxuan, ensuring not to affect her while staying close to protect her.

The reason for not returning was Qin Fang's concern that there might be surviving Tang Sect disciples, with Tang Huaiming dead, those remaining might harm Chu Yunxuan.

If Qin Fang stayed at Chu Yunxuan's place, he might be detected by them, while staying hidden, he could discover approaching Tang Sect disciples.

"Young Master Qin, a suspicious figure approached Miss Chu, but soon left…"

As Qin Fang suspected, upon arrival, Shen Liang reported this, "From the person's actions, it probably was someone from the Tang Sect…"

"No worries…"

This was within Qin Fang's expectations; although Tang Huaiming brought most disciples back to their base, he certainly left some to watch over Qin Fang or Chu Yunxuan.

Qin Fang previously counted the Tang sect disciples in the courtyard and indeed seemed one less; this might be the one who slipped through.

But this guy returned to their courtyard, surely would find all companions fallen, becoming a lone wolf himself, afraid to act rashly for now.

Perhaps this guy would act crazily against Chu Yunxuan, but as long as Qin Fang was by her side, there would be no chance for him.

Qin Fang didn't pay attention to this matter, instead he stayed behind to clean up the battle aftermath.

This time, many Grandmaster-level experts died at Qin Fang's hands, unfortunately the C4 explosion was too fierce, directly blowing the bodies to pieces, and under that rubble, even if he wanted to pick things up, he couldn't, not to mention the police arrived too quickly, Qin Fang didn't have much time.

Those seven or eight Grandmaster-level experts, Qin Fang didn't even manage to pick up a single hair from them and just left, thinking back on it now felt quite like a loss.

However, before leaving, Qin Fang did manage to grab something from Shen Liang's body, at that time he didn't react, just grabbed the items and made a run for it.

Now he began to sort through these spoils, and that sacred sword was naturally one of them.

Clang~~

With the divine sword in hand, as soon as it was unsheathed, it emitted a clear dragon's roar, shocking anyone who heard it.

"What a fine sword..."

Feeling the cold chill of the sword's blade and its sharpness, although not to the extent of cutting hair with a blow, it was not far off, Qin Fang couldn't help but praise.

The blade was transparent, the lines were perfect, almost flawless, and although it was clearly from ancient times, not a speck of rust had formed over the years.

This sword had tasted the blood of countless people, Qin Fang noticed a subtle dark red hue on a part of the blade, not the metal's natural color, appearing to be seeped by blood, the dark red color was indeed quite striking...

But this had very little to do with Qin Fang, the sword itself bore no sin, if there was sin, it was the one wielding it that was guilty.

This sword could easily cut through Qin Fang's katana, which was testament enough to its sharpness and exceptional nature.

"If I use the Galaxy Divine Iron on it, perhaps I could get a Divine Weapon like one of the Ten Great Divine Weapons..."

Qin Fang had been aware of the existence of this divine sword even before making a move, he went to assassinate Shen Liang and others partly to eliminate such threats, and partly to obtain this divine sword.

Shen Liang couldn't escape then, directly killed by the explosion; Qin Fang would have gone in to seize the divine sword regardless...

But Shen Liang managed to break out himself, although it caused Qin Fang some extra effort, he managed to dispose of Shen Liang, and obtain the divine sword.

"Flowing Shadow... Is this the name of the sword?"

Using his Scouting Skill on the sword, Qin Fang found out its name, clearly this name was unknown compared to those Ten Great Divine Swords.

With the divine sword in hand, Qin Fang couldn't wait to take out the piece of Galaxy Divine Iron from the Props Box, placing it against the divine sword, Qin Fang immediately received a prompt in his mind.

"Flowing Shadow Sword (Upgradeable), required materials: Galaxy Divine Iron (1/1), Tianxin Sand (0/1), Ziyao Stone (0/1)..."

Sadly, merely placing the Flowing Shadow Sword and Galaxy Divine Iron together wasn't enough for an upgrade.

Though the system provided an upgrade prompt, seeing it, Qin Fang realized that to elevate this Flowing Shadow Sword to the tier of the Ten Great Divine Weapons, he still needed some additional materials for the upgrade.

The Flowing Shadow Sword was in hand, the Galaxy Divine Iron was in hand, yet to upgrade this divine sword, the other materials were still lacking.

Looking at the long list of required materials, most were easy to find, Qin Fang directly skipped them, the main three materials left were Galaxy Divine Iron, Tianxin Sand, and Ziyao Stone.

Qin Fang already had a piece of Galaxy Divine Iron, he just needed to find the additional Tianxin Sand and Ziyao Stone to officially upgrade the Flowing Shadow Sword.

"No detailed hints at all..."

That's as much as the prompt provided, as for how to acquire Tianxin Sand and Ziyao Stone or where to find them, the system offered no explanation.

"Looks like I'll have to rely on my luck..."

Without clues, even if Qin Fang wanted to search, he had no leads whatsoever, only hoping his luck would be very good.

If luck favored him, perhaps by chance in his wanderings, those two missing materials might just be waiting there for Qin Fang.

But if luck was bad, Qin Fang could search the world over yet might never find the two materials... Such things have occurred to many experts, often leaving them frustrated to death...

"Oh well, for now I'll hold onto this sword, after all it's a top-notch Divine Weapon, as long as I don't encounter weapons of the Ten Great Divine Weapons level, there's basically no threat..."

Qin Fang was quite optimistic, knowing this Flowing Shadow Sword was of the Divine Weapon rank, otherwise Shen Liang wouldn't have valued it so highly...(To be continued.
