Second update!

...

Old Master Wu understood everyone's questions all too well, but he had his own reasons.

"Tiger's Rush is a secret technique passed down in the Wu Family. Aside from you two brothers, only Qingsong possesses it..." This was a known fact to everyone, and several people nodded in agreement, waiting attentively.

"I didn't get a clear look at that young man, but I did see something... It's precisely because of this thing that I am convinced that the young man must be a descendant of Qingsong."

Old Master Wu continued, his eyes seeming to drift off, as if his thoughts had already flown to a distant era.

Chen Qingsong was once his most outstanding disciple, whom he even valued more than his own sons. Wu Ming and Wu Hai were quite envious back then. But such a disciple deeply hurt an old man's heart.

"Dad, are you talking about... the Feng Yuan Pei?"

It was Wu Ming who suddenly recalled something, his expression changing slightly as he asked in surprise.

"The Feng Yuan Pei!"

Upon hearing this name, Qin Fang wore a look of unfamiliarity, and Luo Youheng was almost the same, but Cai Pingyuan and Wu Hai's expressions changed.

"Indeed, it is the Feng Yuan Pei!"

Old Master Wu nodded slightly and said.

Cai Pingyuan, noticing Qin Fang's puzzled look, quietly explained to him.

It turned out that the Feng Yuan Pei was an heirloom jade pendant of the Wu Family, carved from a piece of Thousand-Year Warm Jade. The precious jade was spiritual, especially when worn over a long time, the spirit of the jade would blend with the wearer's vital essence, creating a unique substance. This substance could enhance the 'Cut Hair and Wash Marrow' property, accelerating cultivation speed significantly.

Chen Qingsong, at a young age, had displayed remarkable martial talent, with an extremely rapid cultivation speed that greatly pleased Old Master Wu. It seemed as though he had foreseen Chen Qingsong breaking through the Grandmaster's limit to reach higher realms.

It was for this reason that he gave Chen Qingsong the Feng Yuan Pei to wear instead of Wu Ming.

Regrettably, Chen Qingsong strayed onto the wrong path and was eventually gravely injured and fell off a cliff, causing the Feng Yuan Pei to vanish from the world.

Unexpectedly, it reemerged, and it was Old Master Wu who witnessed it, which could explain a lot.

Perhaps, Chen Qingsong really wasn't dead!

"Dad, I understand what to do now!"

There was no need to say more. The people present were not fools; Old Master Wu's intent was clear.

Chen Qingsong was a renegade disciple who deserved death. If the Feng Yuan Pei had disappeared along with him, that chapter would have closed forever.

But unexpectedly, he hadn't died and even trained a disciple with formidable strength who almost managed to kill Old Master Wu. Subsequently, this disciple had brutally killed two people using even more savage methods, bearing a striking resemblance to Chen Qingsong's temperament back then.

Such a person could not be allowed to remain at large. They must be captured and possibly... executed!

As for the Feng Yuan Pei, being originally property of the Wu Family, it was time to reclaim it.

Old Master Wu's body was still quite frail, speaking so much must have been very tiring for him, and he needed rest. Everyone did not want to bother him further and took their leave.

With Old Master Wu's statement backing him, Qin Fang's previous proposal seemed relatively simple. After leaving Old Master Wu, Qin Fang specially met with Wu Ming alone to make his intentions clear without any pretense.

Wu Ming had been worried that Qin Fang, who hadn't been practicing martial arts for long, would stand no chance against this brutal murderer. However, when Qin Fang displayed his service pistol and gun permit and even flashed his National Security Agency special agent ID, Wu Ming agreed amidst shock.

As the head of the Wu Family, Grand Elder Wu held absolute authority, and Wu Ming managed the overall situation. This matter was trivial for him, so he notified Luo Youheng to arrange it. As the Deputy Director of the Provincial Department, You Heng's involvement would ease the process. After all, Qin Fang wasn't there to take credit from others; it was just in name.

...

"Congratulations, your Cooking Skill (Intermediate) proficiency is full, upgraded to Advanced Cooking!"

What surprised Qin Fang was that just as he was gearing up to join the task force hunting the killer, this notification popped up.

"Finally advanced!"

Surprise and excitement appeared on Qin Fang's face. He had been waiting for this day for a long time and now finally possessed his first advanced skill.

He opened the skill panel and called up the data for his Cooking Skill.

"Skill: Cooking, Level: Advanced, Proficiency: 0%, can cook various delicious dishes, Deliciousness +10."

The content was similar to Intermediate Cooking, with only a few changes in details, like the skill level advancing to Advanced, and the additional property increasing from Deliciousness +5 to Deliciousness +10, doubling.

Recalling the past, a mere Deliciousness +5 already enabled Qin Fang to thrive, and now with Deliciousness +10, doubled, the food he would make would undoubtedly be even tastier. Concurrently, his cooking skill would reach new heights.
