Chapter 2381 Decision Made!

Second update, seeking subscriptions and monthly votes~~~These days I've been a bit delayed playing with my child, apologies!

...

After Qin Fang and Ning Yumo resolved their matters here, they left the military camp directly... As for how the military would eliminate the remaining mercenaries of the Fallen Angel Mercenary Group, that's not something Qin Fang could participate in.

They had learned some important information from Qin Fang, which was enough for them.

When Qin Fang and Ning Yumo were leaving, they could clearly notice the entire military district becoming restless, countless fighter jets took to the skies... What might happen next, Qin Fang could imagine, but he was no longer concerned.

The underground world has its own rules, and the surface world has its rules too. Any side that violates these rules risks being eradicated... no matter how powerful it is.

A day later, Qin Fang and Ning Yumo successfully returned to Ninghai, and this matter was considered completely settled.

To celebrate Ning Yumo's safe return, Qin Fang naturally gathered everyone again. Everyone was very happy to get together, and there were quite a few more people than last time... enough for a table of men, and enough women for another table.

Not only the original people, but even Monk Wukong, Ji Xiang, Hattori Sanzo, as well as Qin Fang's brother-in-law Tang Cheng, and Ling Fei, had all come from Jiangzhou.

"The Great Competition of the Five Sects, how did you know about it?"

When Qin Fang was whispering some things with Monk Wukong, Monk Wukong couldn't help but exclaim.

"..."

That one sentence made Qin Fang roll his eyes.

"Surprised, purely surprised…"

Monk Wukong said a bit awkwardly, "I actually couldn't come out this time, it's because of the Great Competition of the Five Sects that I got these few days off, to make the final preparations..."

"It's just, this is a matter of our Five Great Sects, seems like... it has nothing to do with you, right?"

Though he was a very close brother to Qin Fang, Monk Wukong understood the seriousness of matters concerning the Five Great Sects.

"I went to Mount Kunlun this time, and accidentally made a friend, that's how I found out about it..."

Qin Fang briefly mentioned this trip to Kunlun, not hiding information about the Fallen Angel Mercenary Group, and even fully disclosed the Minor Kunlun Realm... none of these were secrets that needed to be concealed.

Of course, he particularly mentioned his ally, Jian Qingfeng.

"Jian Qingfeng…"

Hearing the name Jian Qingfeng, Monk Wukong's expression couldn't help but change, "Senior Brother Jian is considered Kunlun's most outstanding disciple right now, and he's already entered the Great Grandmaster Level, with great hope of advancing to the Supreme Realm..."

Qin Fang smiled upon hearing this, knowing that Jian Qingfeng was not just hopeful, but absolutely could... unless some accidental fall occurred, it was practically guaranteed, as he had already absorbed considerable elemental energy and learned some methods of elemental energy operation from Qin Fang. If he couldn't break through, then he truly would be as dumb as a pig.

"Are you saying, Senior Brother Jian invited you to join the Kunlun Sect?"

And upon truly hearing this news, Monk Wukong's eyes almost popped out.

He was one of the Five Great Sects' disciples, also meant to participate in this Great Competition of the Five Sects, and even had a good chance of vying for those thirty spots to enter the Barbaric Wilderness Mini Secret Realm... originally, he intended to use this opportunity to catch up to Qin Fang's pace.

Yet just when he was feeling confident, Qin Fang poured cold water over him...

Joining a sect with skills, this was not uncommon for many sects, but for the Kunlun Sect, it was almost unheard of.

But Qin Fang was an exception this time...

"Alas, it seems the situation at the Kunlun Sect isn't very good either..."

Monk Wukong couldn't help but sigh.

He could guess Jian Qingfeng's intentions; whenever faced with a shortage of talents, the major sects would opt to recruit disciples in such a way to strengthen themselves.

The Kunlun Sect had always thrived in prosperity, thus situations like these hadn't arisen, but they had to make an exception this time.

"Our Shaolin is only slightly stronger, but this time, in the Great Competition of the Five Sects, it's mostly on par with the Kunlun Sect..."

Though such matters shouldn't be discussed in advance, saying it so casually was no big deal, at least it could give Qin Fang some insight into the Kunlun Sect's situation, which could be helpful in his decision.

Because Kunlun Sect's situation wasn't good, it urgently needed to replenish with talented disciples. Though joining with skills carried risks, before they truly matured into uncontrollable forces, Kunlun Sect had the power to suppress them.

Kunlun may be lacking in young talents, but that doesn't mean there aren't many skilled masters in the older generation…

In terms of top-tier experts, even if the Kunlun Sect doesn't rank first among the Five Great Sects, it's estimated to be among the top three, with considerable strength; the foundation of a thousand-year sect is no joke!

A genius disciple like Qin Fang is something that even the Kunlun Sect wouldn't overlook. Once the news is out, the Five Great Sects won't hesitate to act… At only twenty years old, his cultivation has already reached the Master Level Late-Stage, nearing the peak, with actual combat power already at Great Grandmaster Level Standard.

Given time, advancing to Great Grandmaster Level would be as easy as child's play; entering the Supreme Realm would not be difficult, and even reaching the legendary realm is not impossible… Such a genius appears only once or twice in a hundred years, who would willingly give up?

Moreover, Qin Fang's advancements in various fields are equally astonishing…

His alchemy is at a Grandmaster Level, his Cheating Skills at Great Grandmaster Level, along with many unknown super skills, secret techniques, treasures, spiritual beasts, etc…

If such a disciple isn't enough to attract the recruitment of the Five Great Sects, that would be absolutely absurd.

Monk Wukong initially wanted to recruit Qin Fang for Shaolin, but he knew it was impossible… To truly become a core member of Shaolin, one must become a monk, and with Qin Fang's many confidantes, if he were to become a monk, these women would probably skin him alive.

Even though secular disciples are also Shaolin disciples, their treatment and opportunities are vastly different.

For instance, in the Five Sect Competition, only core disciples are qualified to participate. Secular disciples neither have the strength nor the opportunity…

"Alas, lucky Kunlun Sect…" Monk Wukong could only sigh at the Kunlun Sect's relatively strong luck.

"Don't count your chickens before they hatch, I haven't agreed yet!"

Qin Fang rolled his eyes and said.

Knowing some of the tricks involved, Qin Fang felt clearer inside. Some of the hesitation he had, has now become easier to manage. Next, he simply needed Cai Pingyuan's approval, and this matter would be settled.

Joining the Kunlun Sect, although there were downsides, compared to the benefits, they could be disregarded.

Ignoring other benefits for the moment, just taking the immediate advantage—the opportunity to participate in the Five Sect Competition and train for three days within the Barbaric Wilderness Mini Secret Realm—was already the greatest chance… Breaking through to Great Grandmaster Level could practically happen within those three days.

"Old Qin, during the Five Sect Competition, we'll be one of our own, remember to lend a hand…" Monk Wukong, being observant, knew that Qin Fang had mostly made up his mind, so he said blithely while drinking and eating meat.

They laughed and joked, quite merrily indeed.

The banquet concluded in a harmonious and joyous atmosphere, and soon after, everyone returned to their residences.

Compared to Qin Fang's side, the women's side seemed much quieter.

Qin Fang initially thought Ning Yumo's arrival might disrupt certain balances and spark a war of jealousy… Unfortunately, he clearly overthought things; the women got along so well, chatting endlessly.

When Qin Fang peeked after their side ended, he found the women engrossed in their heated conversation, and he was even chased out by the group… They said they were discussing women's topics, and what did he, a man, want to listen to!

Ultimately, Qin Fang could only leave, feeling dejected.

And after the meal, the women went singing and to do beauty treatments together… In short, by the time they returned, it was already late into the night.

Qin Fang wasn't worried about these women; the weakest among them held a Master Level cultivation, while Tang Feifei was already at Master Level Peak; though still lagging behind Qin Fang in strength, in terms of realm, she was even above Qin Fang.

With such cultivation, even the somewhat hapless Tang Cheng, Qin Fang's brother-in-law, was harshly mocked by his own sister…

Anyone foolish enough to provoke these women would be practically asking for death… Not to mention, all of Ninghai was essentially Qin Fang's territory; the wandering gang members here were mostly under Qin Fang's umbrella.

Without saying much, as long as Qin Fang's name was invoked, who would dare to act rashly?

If someone indeed had the audacity of a bear, there'd be no need for Tang Feifei and the others to move, as those little thugs would have internal strife first…

Since Li Rui's downfall, Tiger and the others have successfully occupied the Ninghai Underground World.

The once obscure hoodlum Mouse has now become a local magnate…

However, he's quite loyal, understanding how his status came to be, his loyalty to Qin Fang is beyond question… He could even forfeit certain turf and comfortably act as a boss, leading a group of brothers to secretly protect Tang Feifei and the other women.

Even though he knows these women are very strong, he stubbornly continues his protective actions… This leaves Qin Fang feeling quite satisfied, rewarding Mouse by boosting his strength to Master Level Peak!

Qin Fang might not have many other resources, but he has plenty of Ninja Tokens. Promoting someone to Grandmaster Level may be difficult, but raising them to Master Level Peak is quite effortless… Chen Da and others are almost all at this level. (To be continued.
