Second update, seeking subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~~The last chapter of 2013, wishing all book friends a new start in the new year!

...

Phelentes ended his life in a very unexpected way...

This left everyone except for Qin Fang utterly shocked, even though they had imagined that Phelentes might not be able to take down Qin Fang, they never dared to think that a Half-Step Supreme Realm Expert could die so swiftly.

At this moment, after seeing Phelentes fall, Qin Fang clapped his hands casually and glanced at them, making the people of the Four Great Families feel a chilling coldness that nearly made them unable to stand firm.

Were it not for Qin Fang's overwhelming presence, their instinct would have been to flee...

"Don't worry, I'll handle your issues later..."

Qin Fang spoke with no urgency, not even bothering to acknowledge the representatives of the Four Great Families as he focused on studying Phelentes's corpse...

What's there to study in a corpse?

If the people of the Four Great Families knew what Qin Fang was doing, they'd certainly question this... But actually, there's a reason behind it, mainly because of the peculiar nature of Phelentes's corpse.

"This is truly strange..."

Qin Fang studied Phelentes's body carefully and could not help but comment after a long while, even feeling quite shocked... it's not an exaggeration to say he was scared, because Phelentes's body was not his main body.

Yes, it's true, it was not the main body, just a clone.

"Is there truly a Clone Technique in this world?"

Understanding this, Qin Fang's mind was filled with this question.

Though Phelentes before him was indeed dead, Qin Fang knew the real Phelentes was still alive, possibly residing somewhere on Earth... This was not a decoy, but a clone almost identical to the main body, except thinning out a portion of the main body's power.

Qin Fang had previously been puzzled by why Phelentes, a Half-Step Supreme Realm expert, seemed so weak; now, he truly understood the reason... because most of Phelentes's power stayed with the main body, the clone received at most a third or even less of the power.

In terms of realm, Phelentes remained in the Half-Step Supreme Realm, but his actual combat power was only slightly stronger than a general Great Grandmaster Level Peak.

With such power, combined with his status in the Mafia, there generally wouldn't be a need to exert full effort, naturally avoiding exposing the clone's flaw, possibly even causing the Gambino Family to be careless because of it.

However, once the main body appears, and the clone's power returns to the main body, then his power would recover to the actual peak, perhaps surpassing the prowess of Ferren's and Gambino's associate, Williamson.

"Clone... not even a bit of junk released!"

Confirming this, while Qin Fang felt excited, he also felt slightly annoyed, having killed a Half-Step Supreme Realm Expert and nearly ensured a drop of props, yet now not even a single hair was dropped.

Moreover, after Qin Fang eliminated this clone, he was marked with a unique imprint by the other party... whenever Qin Fang and Phelentes's main body were within a certain distance, Phelentes would perceive Qin Fang's existence.

This was equivalent to carrying a bomb that could explode at any moment on Qin Fang's person!

"Seems like I really can't return this corpse to Phelentes..."

Initially planning to keep this corpse as a warning for the Four Great Families, Qin Fang realized it was neither necessary nor possible to do this anymore, "Though just a corpse, it contains nearly a third of Phelentes's power, effectively hanging a Sword of Damocles above his head."

Phelentes would come to hunt Qin Fang, not only because Qin Fang had eliminated his clone, but also since he needed to recover this corpse to reclaim his power, returning to the peak!

This clone was merely a vessel for power; once dead, the power still resided within the body...

"This battle is inevitable, but I'm determined to disgust you thoroughly first..."

Since Phelentes had tricked Qin Fang, depriving him of props or even skill books, naturally Qin Fang wouldn't be kind in return, he would take this corpse, store it in the Props Box, and no matter how skilled Phelentes was, he couldn't recover this part of his power.

Indeed, Qin Fang also had a thought to actively attract Phelentes to cause trouble for him, seizing the chance to eliminate the main body too... perhaps the mysterious clone secret technique he mastered could fall into Qin Fang's hands.

With a wave of his hand, Phelentes's clone vanished without a trace... leaving the people of the Four Great Families instantly dumbfounded, nearly popping their eyes out, their bodies trembling intensely.

They clearly did not suspect Qin Fang of putting the corpse somewhere, but rather assumed Qin Fang had utterly destroyed Phelentes's corpse with a mere hand gesture... The fiery magic that appeared before was terrifying enough, but now this was even more so.

"Don't, don't kill me..."

When Qin Fang turned his face toward the people of the Four Great Families, someone immediately lost the strength in their legs, collapsing to the ground, a pungent odor of urine spreading from their crotch, their face pallid, uttering fearfully.

"Don't be afraid..."

Qin Fang's attitude was unconcerned as he spoke, "Are you all people from the Mafia's Four Great Families?"

"..."

The people of the four great families were left speechless; they've suffered considerable casualties, yet they seem unaware of their attackers' identities, making this enemy... absolutely bewildering.

Nevertheless, they could only nod obediently, not daring to speak out of turn.

"Is it true?"

Qin Fang appeared somewhat perplexed and asked again.

The people of the four great families cautiously nodded, unsure of what Qin Fang intended to convey.

Suddenly, Qin Fang stood up, causing the people of the four great families to instinctively step back, huddling together like frightened quail. But Qin Fang rather nonsensically said, "Then... it's none of your concern!"

"Ah..."

Almost everyone simultaneously exclaimed, the sound was remarkably synchronized.

"Why? Are you displeased?"

Qin Fang's face darkened, his tone exceedingly unfriendly as he scolded.

"No, no, no..."

The people of the four great families all looked extremely panicked, immediately expressing their eagerness, seemingly afraid that a slow response might lead Qin Fang to believe they had grown tired of living.

"Handle this yourselves, I don't want to attract unnecessary trouble... If I find trouble stalking me, the four great families... I'll have a word with you!"

This answer seemed to satisfy Qin Fang, who nodded slightly.

Then, after giving some brief instructions, Qin Fang prepared to leave.

"We will definitely handle it, definitively handle it..."

The people of the four great families wouldn't dare utter any nonsense, quickly indicating their agreement. They could tell that Qin Fang intended to leave... This was something they desired more than anything, how could they possibly disrupt it?

Qin Fang didn't genuinely intend to wipe these people out... It was just that he eliminated the most threatening Phelentes, so the four great families wouldn't dare exert pressure on Ferren and Gambino for now, resolving Nora's troubles temporarily.

Of course, once the four great families feel there's no more danger, they will naturally strike again, but Nora should know how to handle things by then, so Qin Fang needn't worry about it.

...

In a certain secret location, within a very large chamber, there was a mysterious spring with an eerie aura, where a naked man was sitting in its waters... The spring was flowing strangely on his body, seemingly following a special path.

If Qin Fang were present, he would recognize this to be Phelentes, the one he had eliminated...

Before him was truly Phelentes' main body, not a clone!

Phelentes was practicing a special secret technique, and he was at a critical juncture, on the verge of a significant breakthrough, but just at this moment...

Splurt!

A mouthful of blood sprayed out, instantly dyeing the surrounding ground red!

Phelentes' face instantly turned pale, his aura became feeble, and his chest was rising and falling heavily, shaking. The injury seemed quite severe...

"Who? Who exactly..."

Phelentes roared furiously, his qi became exceedingly violent, making him look deranged, extremely fierce, and terrifying!

"Lord Phelentes..."

Responding to Phelentes' roar, someone entered from outside the chamber, cautiously bowing and lowering his head to inquire, clearly very afraid of him.

"You... go to Miami right now! Find out... who killed my clone! Also... bring the clone back!"

Phelentes was in extreme rage, but his training was at a critical point, seemingly preventing him from leaving the spring pool. He immediately instructed the trembling man, his tone extremely grim and cold.

"Yes, Lord Phelentes..."

The man immediately indicated his eagerness, then retreated from the chamber... Only after exiting the doorway did he exhale deeply, for Phelentes' pressure had been so overwhelming, making his breathing feel restricted.

"Miami, clone... Who dared have the courage to lay hands on Lord Phelentes' clone!"

But the man couldn't help but mumble. (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets on Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read on m.qidian.com.)
