Chapter 83: Sendoff

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Ping completely ignored Fang Yuan’s resentment.

He did it for her own good!

Blood and Qi-replenishing Pills were very effective for replenishing Vitality. Was it something normal people could eat?

This was his loving concern for his little saister, so Fang Ping did not feel one ounce of guilt. If the girl knew the whole story, she would thank him.

Fang Yuan’s troubles aside, Fang Ping himself was soon quickly troubled too.

Liu Wen was alright, but Liu Wu kept clinging to him and asking him to teach him martial skills like triggering pressure points!

“Brother Pingping, how do you trigger the anti-hunger point?”

“…”

“When you trigger it, can you really stop eating? Like Sister Yuanyuan?”

“…”

“I really want to trigger my sister’s. Brother Pingping, won’t you teach me?”

“…”

This brat kept asking about it non-stop and even did so in front of Fang Yuan. Did he not see the girl’s face turn green?

In the end, he let the kid experience what he called the anti-hunger point.

Fang Ping split a Blood and Qi-replenishing Pill into halves and let Liu Wen and Liu Wu eat them unknowingly.

By the time night came, the audience increased by two.

The three kids all stared at each other, none of them wanting to eat.

At this point, Li Yuying and the others could feel something was not right. One was dismissible, but the three of them who could normally finish an entire table of food actually refused to eat! Everyone turned to Fang Ping. “I’m helping them lay out some basics. It’s no big deal,” he said casually.

“Fang Ping, it really was you!”

Fang Yuan was finally vindicated and looked indignantly at her mother. “Mom, I told you so many times, yet you just didn’t believe me.

“You heard it, this is Fang Ping’s doing!”

Liu Wen had a look of fear on her face. “Brother Pingping, I won’t eat junk food anymore, so can you undo my anti-hunger point?”

“Me too!” Liu Wu hurriedly added, afraid Fang Ping would forget him.

The kids were all frantic. If they stopped wanting to eat, what pleasures would life still have?

Fang Mingrong looked inquisitive. Fang Ping chuckled and said, “It’s really nothing. It’ll be gone in a day or two.

“They’re not eating because their Vitalities are full, so they temporarily won’t have an appetite. After some training, they’ll feel better when it’s digested.”

Because the current Fang Ping had gotten into Magic City Martial Arts University, even if he was from the later generation, his words still held authority in the two families’ eyes.

Since he had said so, there definitely would not be a problem.

Besides, these three were his relatives. It would make no sense for Fang Ping to harm them.

After that, the four elders stopped caring and left them to their own devices.

They ignored the kids’ dissatisfaction and resumed eating and drinking, acting like they could not see them.

…

After dinner, the three kids were locked in the fitness room by Fang Ping for a training regimen called—undoing the anti-hunger point.

Fang Ping himself stayed with his parents as well as his aunt and uncle to discuss the banquet the next day.

Fang Mingrong was unsettled and questioned his son. “Today when Director Tan left, he said he would be coming tomorrow too. Pingping, tell me, is Director Tan upset?

“I didn’t invite him, so he had to inform me himself, is it…”

“Dad, it’s nothing.” Fang smiled comfortingly. “We treat others the way we’re treated. When Tan Tao and his family have a banquet, we’ll go over too.”

“Brother-in-law, this Director Tan you mentioned, he’s the director of your Department of Education?” Liu Anhua could not resist asking.

Liu Anhua only found out his brother-in-law was not working in the ceramics manufacturing factory anymore when they had been eating and that he was now working as a security guard for the Department of Education.

Being a security guard sounded like no big deal, and some people might even think it too low-status in society.

However, he was not some factory’s security guard, he was the Department of Education’s security guard.

Liu Anhua was extremely envious. Hearing that the director was going to attend the banquet made him even more envious.

Fang Mingrong explained. “He’s the deputy director. Pingping was the one who sought Director Tan’s help, then I became a security guard for the Department of Education.”

“Pingping is very impressive, even knowing the director of the Department of Education…”

Liu Anhua once again expressed admiration. Having children with a lot of promise was more useful than working hard for a lifetime.

“Anhua, Wenwen and Little Wu should follow the path of martial sciences too.”

Fang Mingrong’s tone was full of emotion. “Last time, our family’s conditions weren’t good. I was holding Pingping back, but he himself requested to sit for the martial sciences examinations, and that led to what we have now.

“If you’re facing any troubles, your sister and I are living a much better life now, so speak up if there’s anything.

“Your sister only has one younger sister, Yuqin and I don’t have any siblings, so don’t be strangers…”

The two sisters’ husbands had a good relationship. Their status was about the same, and neither of them looked down on the other.

Fang Mingrong had no siblings, and Li Yuqin was a woman, so he could only chat with Liu Anhua.

Seeing his family’s friendly interactions, Fang Ping’s mood was lifted.

Sometimes familial matters were harder to settle than other matters. If some entitled relatives with leeching habits were added to the mix, it would be more troublesome.

…

They all talked until late at night. Fang Yuan and the other two were assigned to a room.

When Fang Ping got up in the middle of the night, he went to Fang Yuan’s room to look around.

The girl might have been dreaming and seemed to have said something, but Fang Ping could not hear it clearly. It was probably something to do with ‘undoing the pressure point’.

Fang Ping felt like laughing but was also repentant.

He was going to head off to university very soon. He would not have many chances to enjoy such easygoing times in the future.

Wang Jinyang and Liu Tao’s words occasionally reverberated in his mind.

The more one excelled, the more dangerous it was.

Every year in all the martial arts universities in the nation, quite a few elite students lost their lives.

Fang Ping did not know. Would such a day come for him?

Fang Ping did not feel he could not reach Rank-3.

Exactly what sort of dangers could make someone like Wang Jinyang change his manner of speaking when he talked about it?

Furthermore, although Fang Ping never brought up those maniacs he encountered last time again, it did not mean the matter was resolved.

When he went to Magic City, would he encounter another group of people like this?

Mediocre people did not make any waves and did not have to worry about these.

Still, Fang Ping could not settle for mediocre. Naturally, he had to control his own destiny.

“I don’t know if teaching you martial arts is the right move…”

Fang Ping mumbled. He taught Fang Yuan pole-standing and let her eat Blood and Qi-replenishing pills. The meaning of it was quite obvious—he hoped this girl could also become a martial artist.

Was this really the right choice though?

It was a good thing Fang Yuan was still little and still had time. After a few years, perhaps everything would change.

…

The next day, Fang Ping’s examinations banquet was held at Sun City Grand Hotel.

Many people attended the banquet!

There were people he knew and people he did not.

Tan Zhenping brought Tan Tao and Tan Hao along, and Wu Zhihao’s father brought Wu Zhihao with him too.

His high school teachers, his father’s previous colleagues, and boss, his mother’s employer…

Even quite a number of people from the Department of Education came.

Fang Mingrong was just a security guard. They definitely would not have come for a normal security guard’s family’s celebration.

That being said, Fang Mingrong had a son who got into Magic City Martial Arts University, so he was not just any security guard. Once they knew about it, pretty much all of them came.

Tan Zhenping came not just to join in the feast.

He even brought an award from the city!

As this year’s Sun City martial sciences champion, the Sun City Department of Education gave the sole student to be admitted into the Big Two a cash prize of 100 thousand.

Despite nobody from Auspicious Sun attending, Tan Zhenping said Director Jin had called him to ask him to congratulate them on his behalf and had even asked Tan Zhenping to give them a red envelope from him.

Fang Ping did not know if this was really from Jin Keming or if Tan Zhenping was just doing it for him but accepted the red envelope anyway.

Later on, when the banquet ended, Fang Ping walked Tan Zhenping out.

When they exited the hotel, the two of them did not exchange any words but silently understood. Fang Ping smiled and asked Tan Zhenping to take care of his parents.

Tan Zhenping swiftly agreed and pointed out the Tan brothers standing not far away, requesting Fang Ping to take care of them.

Asking Fang Ping was just a cover. What he meant was to ask Old Wang to take care of them.

Fang Ping was going to Magic City Martial Arts University, but Wang Jinyang was still at Nanjiang Martial Arts University and was their Martial Arts Society’s president.

If they were under Wang Jinyang’s care, his two sons would see much better days.

In exchange, he would also look after Fang Ping’s parents. Tan Zhenping had quite a reputation in Sun City. As long as he did not offend a specific few, he could stand on even ground with the others.

Moreover, the few who really should not be crossed would not trouble two regular people with Fang Ping being a student at Magic City Martial Arts University.

…

The end of the banquet.

Tan Zhenping got into his car, looked at his somewhat ignorant eldest son, and sighed. “Birds of a feather really do flock together.”

His two sons managed to get into a martial arts university and were about to become martial arts university students.

Still, when compared to Fang Ping, their manners were very different.

Fang Ping was very intelligent and knew what was worth fighting for and what was not.

It could be seen from the start when he negotiated with Jin Keming that Fang Ping could skillfully weigh the situation.

He took others’ benefits yet did not make them upset. Director Jin was even grateful to Fang Ping for that.

The red enveloped he gifted was indeed on Jin Keming’s orders. That was the truth.

Before he himself could say a word, Fang Ping already realized what he wanted. Asking him to take care of Fang Ping’s parents was done to give him a level ground.

Fang Ping was a Magic City Martial Arts University student. Who would be stupid enough to cause trouble for his parents?

It was Tan Zhenping, a Rank-1 martial artist who asked for a Rank-3 martial artist to take care of his sons, who was being shameless.

Wang Jinyang and Fang Ping’s friendship was not purely due to their talents.

There were plenty of prodigies. Although Fang Ping was not bad, there were other martial sciences examinees. Wang Jinyang himself was a prodigy, so what was it that made him see Fang Ping as an equal?

If what Fang Ping had was just talent, it would not be enough for Wang Jinyang to get involved with him.

Moreover, as the leader of the Department of Education, a high post in the city, Tan Zhenping vaguely understood some things.

Fang Ping and Wang Jinyang had gotten entangled when Wang Jinyang came back to Sun City last time to capture Huang Bin.

Later news revealed Huang Bin had been renting the space above Fang Ping’s place.

Wang Jinyang, who had gone to the White Mountains to no avail and back, suddenly brought Huang Bin’s corpse with him to the Department of Investigations. During the autopsy, it was determined that Huang Bin had died from blunt force trauma, but there were plenty more minor injuries on his body as well as traces of drugs in his system.

Did Wang Jinyang need to do this to deal with Huang Bin?

Aside from Wang Jinyang, who else could have killed him?

Tan Zhenping did not think too much about it. The Department of Investigations did not investigate further either. He was dead, so the case was closed.

Nevertheless, these thoughts would not disappear.

‘Huang Bin, a peak Rank-2 martial artist, fell under the hand of a non-martial artist kid!’

‘After the matter, Wang Jinyang helped get rid of the evidence.’

‘The two of them split Huang Bin’s possessions.’

‘Fang Ping’s peak potential martial artist’s cultivation resources were not provided by Wang Jinyang. Wang Jinyang doesn’t have enough resources for himself…’

When these pieces of the puzzle came together, a few things became obvious.

Despite Fang Ping’s harmless demeanor, he was a fierce scorpion. He did not lack in intelligence and was experienced. He would not lack in comparison to Wang Jinyang.

Fang Ping had even managed to get into Magic City Martial Arts University. He could do better than Wang Jinyang.

With these thoughts a mess in his head, Tan Zhenping suddenly said, “Hao, Tao, interact more with this classmate of yours from now on.”

Tan Hao and Tan Tao hastily nodded. Even if their father did not say anything, they knew what to do.

…

Fang Ping was not sure what Tan Zhenping was thinking.

Fang Ping was not surprised if others have correctly guessed what had happened with Huang Bin.

If he had been a nobody, it would not have been exposed.

However, he got into a martial arts university, and he had a close relationship with Wang Jinyang. It would be easy to somewhat rightly deduce what had happened.

Nevertheless, the current Fang Ping was not worried about others knowing.

One was the president of Nanjiang Martial Arts Society, a Rank-3 martial artist.

The other was a new student of Magic City Martial Arts University nearing the martial artist realm.

No matter if it was Sun City or even Auspicious Sun, if anyone knew they took Huang Bin’s possessions, they would not comment on this duo’s doings.

As for Huang Bin’s robbery victims…

Some of them died, the others would not cause trouble either.

The medicinal pills and elixirs and other resources Huang Bin had obtained were not gotten through legitimate channels. These things could be done in the black market but could not be done openly.

Those people would not dare to say anything. They could only wallow quietly.

…

In July, Fang Ping also attended a few of his classmates’ celebratory banquets.

Aside from that, Fang Ping kept cultivating and teaching his little sister to cultivate.

Fang Yuan finally knew the reason she would not eat!

Fang Ping did not plan to hide the Blood and Qi-replenishing Pills’ effects from her. When he left, the leftover Blood and Qi-replenishing Pills were still going to his little sister for her use.

If he did not explain it to her clearly, the girl could take some whenever she liked without a care, and it would be troublesome.

When she found out it was because she ate Blood and Qi-replenishing Pills, Fang Yuan’s glare was sharp enough to kill.

A part of it was because she found the cause of her being unable to eat, another part was due to Fang Ping giving her such a precious medicinal pill—it was such a waste!

This one in thousands medicinal pill, and Fang Ping had tricked her into thinking it was a chocolate bean!

Furthermore, when she thought of how Fang Ping gave Liu Wen and Liu Wu each a Blood and Qi-replenishing Pill before they left, Fang Yuan had the urge to go to her aunt’s house to get them back even if she had to kill.

Fang Ping had to spend July listening to Fang Yuan’s nags and complaints.

Fang Ping’s departure was at the end of July.

He was leaving for Magic City earlier to find a way to earn money and to get to know the place.

…

The train station.

As he was about to leave, Fang Yuan cried spectacularly.

The way she always called “Fang Ping Fang Ping” did not mean she hated her older brother.

Ignoring formalities was her way of being affectionate.

Fang Ping had always left snacks for her, let her play with fun things first, and would always be there to beat up someone if she was bullied…

Fang Ping had tricked her into eating a medicinal pill worth tens of thousands by telling her it was a chocolate bean.

Now, Fang Ping was going to Magic City and might be gone for months at a time.

Her classmates told her martial arts university students were very busy and might not even go home for winter and summer breaks.

Fang Yuan had never been without Fang Ping ever since the beginning. Last time, when Fang Ping had exams for ten or so days, she had missed him badly.

Now, he was leaving for many months. By the time they reached the station, Fang Yuan’s eyes were swollen, and she had clung onto Fang Ping’s clothes, refusing to let go.

Finally, after Fang Ping made several promises and her parents chided her, Fang Yuan reluctantly let go.

When Fang Ping got onto the train, the girl choked out, “Remember… Remember to come home when you’re on vacation, and call me from time to time. You must tell me when you find a girlfriend…”

Fang Ping mercilessly pinched her face, and for the first time ever, Fang Yuan wished her older brother could pinch it longer.

“I’m leaving now! Behave at home!”

Fang Ping waved goodbye to his parents. Under the worried and reluctant gazes of his family, he stepped into the carriage.

“Fang Ping! Take care of yourself!”

The girl yelled loudly, unable to keep her tears from flowing.

Fang Ping, who had already gotten into the train, felt a twinge in his heart. Even the thought of heading for Magic City Martial Arts University had dulled quite a bit.
