My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 373 Gentle Power
CRACK! POP!
Green plants burst through the Rockskin, one after another, shattering it to pieces.
"Sometimes, gentle strength can also be terrifying!" Yang Qi said with a laugh.
"You little bastard! You actually know such a technique! I absolutely cannot let you live!" Jiang Tianfu's face twisted ferociously.
It wasn't just his Rockskin that had been breached; his composure had shattered as well. He had always considered his Rockskin to be invincible, fearing no one. But now, it was broken. This is a dangerous sign.
He roared, charging toward Yang Qi like a wild bull, unleashing a force so terrifying it could make anyone tremble. A direct hit would likely leave even Yang Qi gravely injured.
"Jiang Tianfu, have you lost your mind?" Yang Qi shook his head. "Without your Rockskin to protect you, do you really think you can still fight me?"
Five kinds of Spiritual Fire suddenly converged on his fist, forming an even hotter, more dazzling punch. Facing the oncoming Jiang Tianfu, he sneered and charged forward as well.
The moment the two drew close, Yang Qi suddenly dropped low, dodging Jiang Tianfu's attack and striking him squarely in the chest.
At that moment, it was as if time had stopped in the entire arena. Everyone stared blankly at the two men on the Life and Death Platform, watching in disbelief. Who won?
"Of course it's my dad! Who else could it be?"
"That's right, it's definitely Chairman Jiang!"
"That kid is done for!"
"How could Chairman Jiang die at the hands of a nobody!"
Around the Life and Death Platform, voices rose one after another. It seemed the majority still supported Jiang Tianfu.
Yang Qi suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his body wobbled. I overexerted myself and got injured!
"Yang Qi has lost!" Lei Qingtian shot to his feet, a flicker of despair in his eyes. He had bet everything on Yang Qi. If Yang Qi lost, the Lei Mansion would have a difficult future in Thunder City.
Lei Yingying's expression also darkened slightly. Impossible! Master can't be defeated so easily!
"Hmph! He's in that state, and you still hold out hope? How ridiculous!" Jiang Gan snorted, his voice full of pride.
However, just then, Yang Qi drew back his fist and took a deep breath. He swallowed a Healing Pill and sat down cross-legged to recover.
"Look!" someone exclaimed in shock, pointing at Jiang Tianfu.
As everyone turned to look, they gasped and covered their mouths. What is happening?
Jiang Tianfu's chest was a gaping, scorched hole. He was as dead as one could possibly be.
"This—!"
Jiang Gan collapsed back into his seat, staring at the scene in horror. He could hardly believe his eyes. His father... was dead? Slain on the Life and Death Platform by a twenty-five-year-old? And in such a gruesome manner?
No one had expected things to develop this way. This was Jiang Tianfu, the vice-chairman of the Martial Arts Association, the master of the Tianfu Martial Hall, and a Seventh Rank Great Grandmaster! And he had been killed just like that?
The arena fell deathly silent. Luckily, no recording devices were allowed. If this footage were ever released online, the impact would be terrifying.
"Is Chairman Jiang really dead?"
"He's dead!"
"There's no way he could survive that!"
"Cao Kun is dead! Shi Quan is dead! Now even Jiang Tianfu is dead! My heavens, the skies of Jingnan Prefecture are about to change!"
"Yes! Excellent!" Lei Qingtian shouted excitedly like a child, even more delighted than when Yang Qi had won the Elixir Medicine Conference. This was simply too thrilling. Martial Arts, in the end, was the foundation of this world. Rumor had it that some had cultivated their Martial Arts to such an extreme that even modern firearms couldn't harm them. That was true terror.
Jiang Gan tried to flee, but he was already seized by men from the Lei Mansion. Victors reign, losers perish. It has always been this way. Jiang Gan had previously sent Black Cat to cause trouble for the National Medicine Association and had even targeted Lei Yingying. How could Lei Qingtian not know? He had refrained from acting before because of Jiang Tianfu's presence. Now that Jiang Tianfu was dead, Jiang Gan's fate was sealed.
"Lock down all information immediately. What happened on the Life and Death Platform today is not to be spoken of to anyone!" Lei Qingtian commanded. "Anyone who dares to defy this order will be an enemy of the Lei Mansion!"
The Lei Mansion had few advantages, but controlling the flow of information was one of them. They knew that by killing the vice-chairman of the Martial Arts Association, Yang Qi would surely attract the enmity of countless Martial Artists. They had to suppress this matter for as long as possible, hoping Yang Qi could continue to grow stronger. That way, he would have nothing to fear when facing danger in the future.
I'm still not strong enough!
Yang Qi left the scene, leaving the remaining matters for the Lei Mansion to handle. There was no need for him to waste his time. Upon returning to White Mountain Manor, he immediately entered seclusion to heal his injuries.
Three days later, his wounds were fully healed. He then took out the Golden Amber he had obtained from Jiang Gan, planning to use it to elevate his Vajra Body Refining Technique to the highest level. He had already prepared all the necessary medicinal ingredients. This was the perfect opportunity to accomplish it all in one go.
For the next day and night, Yang Qi remained in cultivation.
「Meanwhile, Uncle Jian had arrived at the small town at the foot of the Heavenly God Sect mountain.」
"He's not in trouble, is he?" Lin Qingxuan asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, he's fine. He has more backbone than you can imagine, Miss! And he's stronger!" Uncle Jian said. "Miss, while you're worried about him, you should also focus on your own Cultivation! Right now, you're far behind him."
"I will!" Lin Qingxuan nodded. She couldn't pin all her hopes on Yang Qi. To escape the Divine Child, she also had to work hard.
"Alright, that's enough talk. I have to go back now." Knowing Yang Qi was fine, Lin Qingxuan finally felt at ease and could now focus on her Cultivation in peace.
「At that time, Yang Qi finally emerged from seclusion.」
His entire body shimmered with Golden Light, as if he were a living golden statue. So this is the effect of cultivating the Vajra Body Refining Technique to its highest level. This light can be concealed normally and unleashed during combat.
Now, his pure physical strength alone was comparable to that of a Ninth Rank Great Grandmaster! It was a truly significant improvement.
After emerging from seclusion, Yang Qi went to bid farewell to Chen Guo, Yao Ran, Lei Qingtian, and the others. His business in the Provincial City had come to an end. He had come for two reasons: to attend the Elixir Medicine Conference and to fight on the Life and Death Platform. Now that both tasks were completed, he could finally return home.
Besides, he had just heard that the Qifei Group was facing some trouble. Someone from the Provincial City had gone to Kang City with the intent of acquiring the company. And that person was Kong Yue, a member of the Kong Family of Thunder City.
Kong Yue had a run-in with Yang Qi when he first arrived in the Provincial City. The young man had tried to humiliate Yang Qi, only to be humiliated himself. He likely still bore a strong grudge.
"Wolf King, pack up. We're heading back to Kang City. Just leave the management of White Mountain Manor to the Lei Mansion."
He needed to match the Lin Family not only in martial prowess but also in financial strength. Therefore, the Qifei Group had to grow bigger and stronger.
