Qin Fang carefully inspected the surrounding area again, confirming that Hua Rumeng indeed didn't drop anything, before having no choice but to leave.
This was actually quite easy to understand. Hua Rumeng was indeed seriously injured by Qin Fang, and was not far from death.
But ultimately, she didn't die from that. The real cause of death was Hua Rumeng using the Heavenly Demon Disintegration and self-destructing, which amounted to suicide.
Since Hua Rumeng committed suicide, it wasn't considered as dying by Qin Fang's hand, so naturally, nothing could explode out…
Even the experience points Qin Fang gained, though considerable, he noticed were only slightly higher than that of an average Grandmaster-level expert, which didn't quite match Hua Rumeng's identity as a Grandmaster Mid-Stage expert…
But regardless, Hua Rumeng seemed to have died without leaving a trace, and Qin Fang himself didn't really lose anything. Instead, he got a decent amount of experience points along with a Hundred Flowers Jade Dew Pill, which was more than a fair bargain.
The surrounding mountains and forests were severely damaged, but Qin Fang clearly couldn't bother with that, and swiftly left the area.
"Should we go to Baihua Tea House?"
With Hua Rumeng dead, the question of why the Illusion Demon Sect wanted to control Baihua Valley remained a mystery, unless Qin Fang could capture someone from the Illusion Demon Sect.
However, Qin Fang had just paid special attention at Baihua Tea House, and besides Hua Rumeng, who was a Grandmaster-level expert, there weren't even a few Grandmaster-level experts…
No matter if these people were from Baihua Valley or the Illusion Demon Sect, with such weak strength, Qin Fang didn't expect to discover any secrets from them.
"Forget it, let's not go…"
In the end, Qin Fang gave up on this idea and turned to head directly back towards Jiangzhou Urban Area.
With Hua Rumeng dead, Ye Huan, with her Master Level Late Stage cultivation, might not sweep over the entire Baihua Tea House, but she certainly had few opponents; self-preservation was clearly not an issue.
Qin Fang had already left his contact information with Ye Huan. If even she couldn't hold her ground, she would naturally be able to find Qin Fang when she needed help.
Hua Rumeng had chased after Qin Fang, but as a skilled expert, she never returned. Others might not suspect anything, but Ye Huan definitely knew something, making some things much clearer…
Thus, the affair at Baihua Tea House was temporarily concluded, and Qin Fang returned to Jiangzhou Urban Area, reuniting with Chu Yunxuan and Wu Jian.
...
Hua Rumeng died. Qin Fang wasn't too sure what might be happening over at Baihua Tea House, but it seemed the Illusion Demon Sect might take some action.
They might increase the number of experts, ensuring their plan could proceed, or perhaps they might be more apprehensive, lying low and not daring to act rashly for the moment.
However, these matters didn't have much to do with Qin Fang. Whatever was meant to come would come eventually, and he couldn't avoid it even if he wanted to.
The night passed without incident, and Qin Fang naturally had a comfortable sleep, spending a loving and intimate time with Chu Yunxuan until midday the next day before they lazily got up.
This was only because the phone kept ringing, and Chu Yunxuan reluctantly went to answer it, which was the reason they finally got up.
"By the way, do you have any free time today?"
After finishing the call and coming back, Chu Yunxuan couldn't help but ask.
"What's up?"
Qin Fang asked indifferently, "I don't have anything going on for the moment, so I'll stay here in Jiangzhou to keep you company. Let me know if you need anything…"
Most of his enemies had already gathered in Jiangzhou, so by staying here, he could attract a bit of attention, and maybe take down a few adversaries, reducing some trouble for himself.
Moreover, the cooperation regarding the Heart Nourishing Pill formula also needed handling, which required staying in Jiangzhou as well.
"Tonight, Mr. Xu, a wealthy tycoon from Jiangzhou, is hosting a charity banquet. You'll accompany me to attend… Oh, by the way, Helen just called about this too. She originally planned to go with me, so… tonight, you're in luck!"
Chu Yunxuan smiled and explained the reason, even giving Qin Fang a playful look full of hints.
"..."
Qin Fang was speechless for a moment, muttering to himself, "What kind of advantage am I taking..."
The name of this Jiangzhou tycoon, Xu Yuanshan, Qin Fang naturally heard of. He is a well-known wealthy person in the country, and once ranked as the richest man in Dragon Country. Although his Distant Mountain Group has not made it to the world's top five hundred enterprises, it ranks well domestically. Apart from those monopoly state enterprises, Distant Mountain Group is definitely a giant.
And the reason why Chairman Xu is so fortunate to be wealthy is one aspect; more importantly, it's his benevolence. Almost every year, the funds he uses for charity are counted in billions. If there are severe catastrophic events, the donations of funds and materials are astronomical numbers.
At the same time, Chairman Xu is also the honorary president of the Jiangzhou Chamber of Commerce. Although he does not participate in the specific management of the Chamber, if he says a word, it is definitely significant.
Therefore, the charity banquets held by Chairman Xu each time can attract many wealthy businessmen to come forward, generously donating, easily raising a considerable amount of revenue.
Of course, not just anyone can attend Chairman Xu's charity banquets. They are primarily renowned wealthy businessmen and celebrities from Jiangzhou and its surroundings...
To some extent, being able to attend such a charity banquet is almost a measure of every guest's social standing and status.
As the president of Reid Pharmaceuticals' Asia Division, Helen naturally has the qualification and has already received the invitation from Distant Mountain Group early on.
Although Chu Yunxuan is not a commercial celebrity, her status is quite special, coupled with some recent events, although not many people know, it has made her a popular figure for a while. Getting into such a charity banquet is not a problem...
"Alright, I'll go with you guys!"
By comparison, Qin Fang's identity seems a bit less flamboyant, but he can accompany Chu Yunxuan as her male companion, without any special requirements.
Smooch~~
Upon hearing Qin Fang's agreement, Chu Yunxuan immediately offered a passionate kiss, sealing the decision.
The initiator of the charity banquet is Chairman Xu Yuanshan of Distant Mountain Group, and the location is chosen at the most luxurious Far Mountain International Hotel under Distant Mountain Group.
For this banquet, the hotel's most luxurious banquet hall has been completely sealed off, and even the entire floor has been surrounded by the hotel's security, allowing only those with banquet invitations to enter, equipped with strict security measures.
"This is kind of, you know, over the top..."
When Qin Fang and the others arrived, facing such security measures, they couldn't help but mutter to themselves, "I guess this is as strict as airport security."
"I heard this charity banquet's level is very high, not only local moguls from Jiangzhou but also many billionaires from Europe and America, the Middle East, Japan, Little Island, and Hong Kong Island. If something happens, even Chairman Xu couldn't afford the consequences..."
"Moreover, some of the auction items for charity tonight are extremely precious; the insured amount by the insurance company is as high as three billion..."
Chu Yunxuan, however, found nothing strange, whispering quietly into Qin Fang's ear.
Qin Fang nodded. If that's the case, it can be understood that way. No wonder there were quite a few security personnel with strong abilities nearby; Qin Fang even noticed some bodyguards apparently carrying weapons...
Not only that, but when entering from outside, Qin Fang also noticed that the Jiangzhou police seemed to have sent officers patrolling around, probably worried about the potential for incidents.
Although Qin Fang grumbled, since they were there, they naturally had to follow the rules, and both he and Chu Yunxuan safely passed the security checks.
Qin Fang had many dangerous items on him. If he had taken out all the weapons from the Props Box, he could probably arm a whole special forces squad.
Unfortunately, no matter how advanced these security devices were, they couldn't possibly detect items stored in Qin Fang's Props Box, nor could they find any anomalies. So, Qin Fang entered effortlessly.
"Hi, Qin... Long time no see!"
Upon entering the banquet hall floor, he saw Helen Dayangma with a radiant smile, immediately swooping towards Qin Fang like a swallow to its nest.
The guests attending the banquet nearby showed signs of surprise, especially those young handsome men previously surrounding Helen, whose faces suddenly transformed dramatically.
Despite being of mixed heritage, Helen retained some traits distinctive of Europeans and Americans, yet having half Chinese blood, making her a striking beauty.
Before Qin Fang and the others arrived, Helen was waiting alone here. Seeing she had no male companion, a swarm of suitors gathered around her, with some men even abandoning their female partners.
Unexpectedly, upon Qin Fang's arrival, not only was Chu Yunxuan beside him stunningly beautiful, but even Helen immediately initiated an embrace.
As soon as Qin Fang caught Helen Dayangma, this mixed-blood beauty pressed her incredible fullness against Qin Fang, clasping his neck with her hands, and quickly approached with seductive red lips for a deep kiss...
Not only were the nearby suitors stupefied, but even Qin Fang himself was a bit dumbfounded by Helen's warm "attack".
However, Chu Yunxuan, standing beside them, seemed to have anticipated it, showing no anger nor any intention to intervene, instead crossing her arms and watching casually...
