51: Chapter 51 It's better to be a little silly
"I refuse to accept this!"
Ding Nan roared in his heart, his face as ugly as if he had eaten shit, but he could only say: "Senior Brother Wang, protecting someone like this, if word gets out, I'm afraid it will affect your reputation."
Wang Jinhua was, after all, the number one Transcendent Martial Artist of the Starry Sky Group, known as the Invincible Transcendent in the Blue Moon Federation.
Although he was also a Transcendent Martial Artist, and a veteran one at that, compared to Wang Jinhua, the gap was still despairingly large.
"Bad reputation?"
Wang Jinhua laughed: "What use is reputation?"
Could reputation be exchanged for usage time in a 'High-Civilization Gravity Chamber'?
A coarse, heavy breathing sound immediately came from the phone.
Wang Jinhua thought for a moment, and to avoid him being driven to desperation, he added: "Don't be in a rush. I'm protecting Fang Zhuo, but I didn't say you couldn't seek revenge. I'm not that tyrannical."
"Oh? Senior Brother Wang, you mean…" Ding Nan's expression softened slightly, and he immediately asked.
"Level 5," Wang Jinhua said indifferently. "Your Ding Family members can go find Fang Zhuo, but they must be within the same major realm, and their Life Level cannot be more than 5 levels higher than his."
"Level 5?"
Ding Nan laughed. Wang Jinhua was treating his Ding Family as a whetstone for Fang Zhuo. But setting a 5-level limit, wasn't that overestimating Fang Zhuo too much?
Wasn't he afraid the whetstone would break the blade?
"Fine, Senior Brother Wang, you said it yourself!" Ding Nan was afraid Wang Jinhua would go back on his word.
"When has my word, Wang Jinhua, ever failed to count?"
"It seems you value Fang Zhuo highly, Senior Brother Wang. So be it. But if he dies, I hope you won't take it out on me!"
"Then I'll consider it my mistake, and that Fang Zhuo simply lacked the ability."
Wang Jinhua was about to hang up, but added: "Alright, you know the other rules. Disaster should not touch family members; his family is an absolute red line!"
Gardener Residential Complex.
Bai Shiwei was pacing anxiously around Fang Zhuo, even considering carrying Fang Zhuo and running away.
At a time like this, was he just going to sit and wait for death?
Brother Wang, what Brother Wang? Looking at the scene on the street outside the window, it seemed like the entire Jinhe City police force had been mobilized.
Quite a few inspectors wearing the uniforms of the Martial Supervision Department had also appeared!
No matter who this 'brother' was, it wouldn't be useful!
Bai Shiwei felt despair. It seemed the person behind Fang Wu's physical decline had significant influence; could it involve a Transcendent Martial Artist?
"Husband…"
Bai Shiwei bit her red lips, her eyes misting over, just about to say something.
The world outside suddenly went quiet.
The incessant wailing of sirens, the sound of rushing air from speeding cars, the restless noise of martial artists running—all vanished at once.
"This is… have they retreated?"
Bai Shiwei widened her beautiful eyes.
Outside the window, the police officers who had surrounded the Gardener Residential Complex retreated like a receding tide, and the Advanced Martial Artists in the uniforms of the Martial Supervision Department also merged into the crowd.
"They really left!"
Bai Shiwei wept with joy and threw herself into Fang Zhuo's arms.
"Alright, alright."
Fang Zhuo patted Bai Shiwei's back, comforting her: "Didn't I tell you earlier? You have to believe in me. Everything will be fine from now on."
Bai Shiwei sobbed softly. She had been under immense pressure these past few days, constantly worrying about Fang Zhuo, especially when the overwhelming number of police officers arrived earlier.
Her heart had almost stopped.
"Is it really okay?" Bai Shiwei asked, bracing her hands on Fang Zhuo's chest and blinking her red, swollen eyes.
"Mm."
Fang Zhuo gazed quietly at Bai Shiwei and slowly explained: "About Dad's physical decline…"
At this point, the matter was basically settled. With Wang Jinhua stepping in to suppress Ding Nan, Fang Zhuo wasn't very worried about the rest.
The only one left in the Ding Family was the Advanced Martial Artist Ding Xu, who wasn't much better than that butler.
With the pressure gone, he no longer hid anything from Bai Shiwei and told her everything he had experienced over these past few days.
"Ding Shixun?"
After listening, Bai Shiwei exclaimed: "His second uncle is the Transcendent Martial Artist Ding Nan!"
No wonder the scene earlier was so massive, with police officers everywhere and even people from the Martial Supervision Department mobilized.
Looking at it this way, the answer to who the 'Brother Wang' her husband called was obvious: it was Wang Jinhua!
To suppress a Transcendent Martial Artist, only an even more powerful Transcendent Martial Artist could do it!
"That man deserved to die. He was notorious in our Jinhe City. I heard he ruined many girls and injured many Primary Martial Artists."
Afraid that Fang Zhuo would have psychological pressure, Bai Shiwei clenched her fists and said: "Good kill!"
"But Dad… sigh…"
"It's okay, we still have several years. We are both Superior Martial Aspects. When the time comes, we can earn money together on Origin Star, gather 2 billion as soon as possible, and buy Dad a dragon-shaped grass. His vitality can be restored."
Bai Shiwei fell silent upon hearing this. 2 billion… Not to mention that she had taken a blood explosion pill, depleting most of her martial potential, even if she hadn't, it would be hard to say if they could earn hundreds of millions in a few years.
Could the two of them, together, really do it?
Seeing that Bai Shiwei lacked confidence, Fang Zhuo deliberately put on a straight face and said: "Not willing?"
"No, I didn't!" Bai Shiwei quickly shook her head and said: "It's just that I used a blood explosion pill…"
"I will help you eliminate the effects of the blood explosion pill."
Fang Zhuo smiled: "But it will have to wait until I become an Advanced Martial Artist."
"You can help me eliminate it, wait, Advanced Martial Artist?"
Bai Shiwei widened her beautiful eyes: "It's an Innate Divine Ability!"
Fang Zhuo's Martial Aspect possessed an Innate Divine Ability that could eliminate the negative effects of pills. This wasn't one of the nine existing Superior Martial Aspects in the Federation…
It was a brand new Superior Martial Aspect!
No wonder, no wonder a powerhouse like Wang Jinhua would personally come to Blue Star to offer her husband an s-rank genius contract from the Starry Sky Group.
Everything matched up…!
"Smart."
Fang Zhuo gave a thumbs up.
Bai Shiwei rolled her eyes prettily and huffed: "If I couldn't even guess that, wouldn't I be an idiot? Speaking of which, if I were really this silly, would you still have married me?"
Fang Zhuo nodded decisively: "Yes. You are so beautiful, it's better to be a little silly."
"What are you saying!"
Bai Shiwei was shy and annoyed, waving her pink fist at Fang Zhuo.
"However, it will still be quite some time before you become an Advanced Martial Artist, right? I want to practice martial arts, but now when I train, my Life Level barely increases…"
"Let me tell you a secret."
Fang Zhuo leaned in to Bai Shiwei's ear and said: "My Life Level is already…"
"Already what?"
Bai Shiwei asked curiously.
"Never mind, Advanced Martial Artist won't be far off. Just wait patiently."
"Ah!"
Fang Zhuo's arm was bitten.
"Are you going to tell me or not?" Bai Shiwei let go of her mouth and bared her teeth.
She pretended to be fierce, but it was to cover up the surprise in her heart.
Living together day and night since the wedding, over the past month, Bai Shiwei had come to understand Fang Zhuo quite deeply.
Fang Zhuo was always steady. Since he said that, it meant he really wasn't far from being an Advanced Martial Artist!
Could his Life Level already be 27 or 28?
How long had it even been?
Too fast!
Bai Shiwei thought of herself, constantly consuming resources, with a Life Level of 25—her improvement was already fast enough, but she had still been fiercely surpassed by Fang Zhuo.
This cheap husband of hers had truly terrifying talent.
"Daring to bite, it seems it's been too long since you've had a taste of family discipline."
Fang Zhuo pretended to grin hideously and scooped Bai Shiwei up by the waist.
Over these past seven days, his mind had been entirely focused on killing Ding Shixun; it had indeed been a long time since they had been intimate.
