Qin Fang didn't know who the Sky Lake Faction had sent, so he didn't know how strong they were.
However, Qin Fang knew that Shangguan Tianling's position in the Sky Lake Faction wasn't low. It was mainly because he had a powerful elder brother, Shangguan Tianlong. His death only affected the Shangguan family's position in the Sky Lake Faction.
It seemed like the experts sent by the Sky Lake Faction to avenge Shangguan Tianling were most likely related to the Shangguan family.
Shangguan Tianling was only at the early stage of the Grandmaster level, so it wasn't hard to imagine how strong the people who would avenge him were.
The Sky Lake Faction wasn't like the Tang Sect, Shaolin, or Kunlun Sect. It didn't lack experts, but there weren't many above the Grandmaster level.
In any large faction, a Grandmaster level expert was a very high status, even in Shaolin and Kunlun Sect.
It was also because of their high status that these Grandmasters rarely came out to hunt down people unless it was an extremely important matter.
The reason why Tang Huaiyuan came out in person was that Tang Nan, who had been killed, was his biological son, and his only son. It would be strange if he didn't come out to avenge his son!
However, Shangguan Tianling was different. His parents had passed away many years ago, and the only person he was close to was his elder brother, Shangguan Tianlong. The other people he was close to were mostly his fellow disciples.
A Grandmaster level expert in the Sky Lake Faction wasn't an ordinary elder. He was definitely an elder who could control a part of the faction.
Even if such an elder wanted to avenge Shangguan Tianling, he would most likely send an expert to avenge him. He wouldn't put himself in danger.
Because of this, Qin Fang wasn't worried at all. As long as it wasn't a Grandmaster level expert, the others could be ignored.
This was also why he cared so much about Shangguan Tianlong. Shangguan Tianlong was a Grandmaster level expert, and an extremely powerful one at that. Compared to the Blood Hand Devilman, Tu San, it was hard to say who was stronger.
"Heavenly Lake Faction …"
Qin Fang did not regret encountering Shangguan Ao by accident and causing such a conflict. Anyway, this was something that would happen sooner or later. Now, he just intensified it in advance.
"I hope I can solve this problem before I go to Japan …"
Shangguan Tianlong was no doubt a big problem. He was not inferior to Tang Huaiyuan, perhaps even more difficult to deal with. After all, Shangguan Tianlong was the director of the local intelligence department in Jiang District. He was much more familiar with the local situation in Jiang District than Tang Huaiyuan.
Naturally, no one knew better than Shangguan Tianling about the people in Jiangzhou that they could not afford to offend.
For example, there were some powerful and terrifying experts living in seclusion in Jiangzhou. They were peak experts from large sects like Chu Tianji …
There were also people with extraordinary backgrounds. In Long Province, there was a group of people with strong backgrounds and special privileges. It was very troublesome to offend such people, and Tangcheng was one of them!
Or they themselves were very powerful. For example, Master Kui controlled the huge Green Gang and controlled the underground forces in Jiangzhou. He could command thousands of people with a single word …
It was also because he knew this information that others would not easily know. Qin Fang wanted to deal with Shangguan Tianlong the same way he dealt with Tang Huaiyuan. This obviously would not work. Shangguan Tianlong was not stupid enough to cause trouble for Chu Tianji. He did not have the strength, and would not do such a stupid thing …
Qin Fang was not a roundworm in Shangguan Tianlong's stomach. Of course, he would not be able to guess when Shangguan Tianlong would make his move. He simply did not think about this matter. Instead, he focused on putting down these thoughts and waited for the work in Jiangzhou to finish. Then, he could go to Japan.
Qin Fang wanted to pass these days in a relaxed manner, but some people obviously did not intend to let him be so quiet. In just two days, Qin Fang had clearly noticed that there were many unfamiliar faces around him.
Some of these unfamiliar faces were from Long Province, and some were foreigners. Although they acted very naturally, Qin Fang could clearly see the dazzling red light from their bodies …
These people were also very cunning. They might have guessed that Qin Fang had discovered them, but they did not show the slightest intention to make a move. Even their hostility was deeply hidden. They just cruised around Qin Fang … It seemed like they were following and watching, but it was the kind that could not be used against them.
Qin Fang certainly wanted to remove these "nails" directly, but these people did not give Qin Fang a chance. They would only follow Qin Fang in public but never go to such a remote place.
After all, Qin Fang had launched a large-scale ambush a few days ago and annihilated more than 20 powerful killers at one time. Therefore, these people had no choice but to be fearful of it …
Assassins were not leeks that could be harvested and grown again. It required a considerable price to cultivate an assassin above three-star. No one was willing to lose it for nothing.
Qin Fang's bounty was not low, but compared with the price of cultivating a three-star or four-star assassin, it was actually not much more. What's more, whether they could kill Qin Fang and get the huge bounty was still a big question mark …
At least so far, no one could threaten Qin Fang. On the contrary, many assassins died in Qin Fang's hands!
"Young Master Qin, the fish has taken the bait …"
Just when Qin Fang was a little bored from waiting, Ji Xiang finally had good news.
"Oh?
This is good news … Let's meet up and get ready to take action! "
Hearing this news, Qin Fang suddenly became spirited and excited. After chatting with Ji Xiang for a while, Qin Fang easily got rid of the "nails" following him and met up with Ji Xiang.
Soon, they drove to a picturesque scenic spot on the outskirts of Jiangzhou. There was a very beautiful small lake here, and villas and manors were built around it.
If the Tomson Mansion District in the city was said to be the most expensive and luxurious district for the rich in Jiang District, then this was a good place for the rich to cultivate in the suburbs. It was said that the owner of each villa or manor here was a well-known figure in Jiang District.
"He's in the manor in front …"
However, Qin Fang and the others were obviously not here to look at the houses, nor to enjoy the beautiful scenery nearby, but because the fish they were talking about happened to be hiding here.
Ji Xiang pointed to the large manor near the small lake and said.
"But there's something interesting. The owner of this manor has a certain relationship with the Qing Gang …"
At the same time, Ji Xiang also said such interesting information with a smile. At least when he said this sentence, there was obvious sarcasm on his face.
"The Qing Gang's territory?
Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road … "
When Qin Fang heard this news, he was slightly surprised, but his reaction was very calm. He even ridiculed with a smile on his face. The sarcasm in his words was not hidden at all. After all, his relationship with the Qing Gang was not very good.
Previously, Qin Fang made a scene in Jiangnan, and then beat up Master Kui's son, Kui Mingyu. Recently, Qin Fang teamed up with Tangcheng. Qin Fang killed Tang Huaiyuan, and Tangcheng was said to have taught the Qing Gang a lesson …
Based on these things, Master Kui already had a good opinion of Qin Fang. He even wanted to kill Qin Fang to vent his anger, but he had not succeeded yet.
"But I'm quite curious. What is Old Man Kui doing?
The Qing Gang's rules are quite strict. How dare he collude with the Japanese so blatantly? "
Qin Fang said with some amusement. He even felt that this matter was a little ridiculous, but it happened.
In fact, many people knew how the Qing Gang was established. Although the Qing Gang went overseas for some historical reasons, its purpose and some iron rules had never changed.
One of them … prohibited cooperation with the underground forces of the Japanese!
The Qing Gang's main forces were overseas, especially in the United States and Canada. However, there were still several major hostile forces in those countries. The American Mafia was one of them, and the Japanese Yamaguchi-gumi was another one of them …
In fact, compared to the threat of the American Mafia, the Qing Gang's main loss came from the Yamaguchi-gumi. Every year, at least hundreds of Qing Gang members fell under the guns of the Yamaguchi-gumi …
This made the enmity between the two sides even deeper, and this iron law was unswervingly carried out … …
Jiangzhou's Qing Gang was located in Long Province and had very little contact with the Yamaguchi-gumi. However, it was still a part of the Qing Gang. Even if Master Kui was at the helm, he still had to abide by this rule.
In fact, in the past twenty years that Master Kui was at the helm, Jiangzhou's Qing Gang had been sniping the Yamaguchi-gumi's entry into Long Province, forcing them to sneak in secretly and stay as far away from the Qing Gang's sphere of influence as possible.
It was also because of this that Qin Fang was so surprised when he heard the news. The consequences of Master Kui's actions were simply self-destruction and loss of integrity in his later years … He was even putting himself in an unrighteous place.
"According to the reliable information I received, Master Kui should be unaware of this matter. It seems to be arranged by your rival, Master Kui's son, Kui Mingyu …"
Ji Xiang smiled and revealed a piece of information to Qin Fang.
"Uh … This is really going to be fun!"
Hearing this news, Qin Fang was surprised. The expression on his face was also indescribably strange. Then, he revealed a half-smile and his eyes narrowed into a line, as if he was already looking forward to what was going to happen next.
