Chapter 38: Showing Respect to Cover Murderous Intent
“Father, that arrogant kid killed the Great Snake all by himself!”
Wang Chen felt his father’s domineering aura and stood out proudly, pointing at Victor.
After all, it was Victor who had embarrassed him before. Now that he had a chance to take revenge, naturally, he had to take revenge on the main killer first.
“You said that the Great Snake was killed by that kid alone?”
Hearing Wang Chen’s words, Wang Zhi’s expressions changed greatly.
After all, the Great Snake possessed a strength equivalent to the advanced first-rate realm.
And the taller kid’s strength was only at second-rate. It was far from enough to kill the Great Snake.
This meant that the short kid’s strength was at least of the first-rate realm.
Although the Great Snake was at the peak of the first-rate realm, it still only is a beast. It had no intelligence and would be easy for two people to pin it down and kill it.
However, he was also in the first-rate realm, he assumed that his martial arts skills were definitely much stronger than these two little kids.
After all, time is limited. If you spent all your time cultivating, your martial arts skills would be on the weaker side.
Hence, Wang Zhi was not afraid.
However, when he heard his son said that the Great Snake was killed by Victor alone, he was immediately concerned.
His heart instantly became restless.
He knew, with his current strength, even he couldn’t even defeat the Great Snake in a one-on-one battle.
And this kid was definitely younger than 15 years old and was able to kill the Great Snake by himself.
Therefore, this kid should be in the Xiantian realm!
A Xiantian practitioner who was not even 15 years old?
“Little brothers, I’m sorry, I misunderstood!”
Wang Zhi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and glared at his son.
Then, as he took a closer look, it seemed that Victor wasn’t satisfied with his words.
Suddenly, he had an idea.
He rushed to a servant’s side, grabbed the stick in his hand, and swung it directly at Wang Chen.
Kacha!
Followed by two clear poundings.
“Ahhhhh!”
Wang Chen’s painful cry sounded in front of everyone, who was stunned.
Victor’s expression finally showed some changes.
Wang Zhi was really ruthless as he was breaking his son’s limbs with no hesitation.
“My son slandered you two little brothers. I wonder if the two little brothers are satisfied with this punishment!”
Wang Zhi said with a smile.
It was as if the person in front of him was completely unrelated to him.
Initially, Victor only wanted to test Wang Zhi’s strength.
He didn’t expect Wang Zhi to be so decisive and even humbly try to please him.
Sure enough, this guy was not a virtuous guy.
“System, download Wang Zhi’s Thunder Fist directly!”
Victor shouted in his heart.
“Ding! The system has successfully locked onto the target. Please keep within 100 meters of the target!”
Victor immediately opened his attribute panel.
Now, a download progress bar appeared at the bottom of the panel.
It indicated that it would take 40 minutes.
As Victor and Wang Zhi got closer, the download time became faster.
When he was only three meters away from Wang Zhi, it actually only took around 10 minutes to download Thunder Fist.
“Wow, after the system upgraded, the download time can be shortened so much!”
Victor sighed in his heart.
This was great news for him, and the scope of operations would be even larger in the future.
He followed Wang Zhi into Qingyan Valley.
After passing through several long corridors and three gardens, they finally arrived at the reception hall of Qingyan Valley.
“I see that the two little brothers have an extraordinary presence, so they must be from a well-known sect. Could you tell me a little, maybe I know someone from your sect?”
In the reception hall, Wang Zhi personally brewed tea and brought it to Victor and Hua Feng. He asked with a smile.
Seeing that Wang Zhi, as the valley master of Qingyan Valley, was treating them with such hospitality, Hua Feng felt a little embarrassed. He hurriedly introduced, “The two of us are here from the Qingyun Sect. This is my junior elder.”
Junior elder?
Normally, there was a clear hierarchy in a sect. Honorifics aren’t meant to be addressed simply. Just from his “junior elder” honorific, Wang Zhi’s mind thought of many things.
At such a young age, he had already earned the junior elder title. How terrifying would it be in the future when he’s an adult.
He was very glad that he had managed to salvage the situation in time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
“Ding! Congratulations to host for successfully downloading the Thunder Fist. The Thunder Fist technique had been stored in the repository. Please check it!”
Just as he sat down and drank a few sips of tea, the system’s voice sounded in Victor’s mind.
Victor’s eyes lit up.
He had achieved one of his goals for entering Qingyan Valley.
Now, he only had one other goal.
“Valley master Wang, do you know if there is a waterfall nearby?”
Victor asked directly.
He wasn’t worried about the other party discovering anything. After all, no one would have figured that the Tree Building technique would be hidden in the deep pool under the waterfall.
“Waterfall?”
Wang Zhi was curious as well.
“Don’t ask too much. Just tell me where there is one nearby!”
With the Thunder Fist in hand, Victor could not be bothered to talk to him.
To be honest, if it was possible, he would rather not have any encounters with people like Wang Zhi.
Seeing that Victor’s attitude had suddenly become tough again, Wang Zhi did not dare to pry.
Then, after thinking for a while, he answered honestly, “It’s behind the mountain on the right of the valley, about three kilometers away.”
“Valley master Wang, sorry to bother you. We’ll be taking a leave!”
After successfully obtaining the news, Victor immediately got up and was about to leave.
Seeing that Victor and Wang Zhi were about to leave.
Wang Zhi frowned, as he did not want them to leave.
He quickly shouted, “Little brother, it’s almost lunchtime. Why don’t we have lunch first and then you two can go check it out? It’s not far anyway. What do you think?”
Hua Feng, who was at the side, was eager to take a break since they had been searching for Qingyan Valley for the past few days.
“Junior elder, why don’t we have lunch first and then leave? We finally found Qingyan Valley. Valley Master Wang rarely invited people in as guests. It’s good to have some rest too.”
Hua Feng saw Wang Zhi’s sincere invitation and quickly stood up to persuade Victor.
After listening to Hua Feng’s explanation, Victor could not bring himself to force him to depart immediately.
He nodded slightly and agreed.
At the same time, seeing that the two of them seemed to have let down their guard, Wang Zhi turned around with a fierce expression on his face. A malicious glimmer flashed across his eyes.
“Two little brothers, have a seat first. I’ll go arrange servants to prepare delicious food for the two distinguished guests.”
Looking at Wang Zhi’s departing figure, Victor’s eyes flickered.
Five minutes later.
Wang Zhi finally returned and swiftly sat on the chair beside Hua Feng.
The two of them began to chat, and the conversation became more and more harmonious as if they were old friends who had been apart many years.
Victor, who was at the side, took advantage of this time to absorb the Thunder Fist.
Ten minutes later.
Finally, perhaps due to his strength being in the Xiantian realm, Victor only felt a slight discomfort in his body.
The full-grade Thunder Fist had already been thoroughly grasped by him.
