Even if you set aside the deeper relationship between the two of them, just based on their friendship alone, Qin Fang absolutely couldn't turn a blind eye and do nothing.

Not to mention Tang Feifei was crying her heart out, looking like a person made of tears. Qin Fang naturally felt deeply distressed and unwilling to let her suffer, so making this trip was only natural…

"You're going to Anlang?"

Tang Feifei's expression instantly changed, clearly filled with shock and suspicion.

The reason she confided in Qin Fang wasn't to ask him to intervene, but purely because she was worried about her big brother's safety and was overwhelmed with sadness, leading her to seek emotional support.

But she never expected Qin Fang to not only comfort her but also volunteer to personally head to Anlang. How could she not be surprised?

"That's right! Brother-in-law is in trouble; how could I, as the younger sister's husband, just stand by and do nothing? I'll go check out the situation and will definitely bring your brother back…"

Qin Fang wrapped an arm around Tang Feifei's soft body and firmly assured her, just as he was convinced that Tang Cheng was still alive.

"Really?"

Tang Feifei's face still had streaks of tears, clearly showing she was still deeply worried. "But… but… it's really dangerous over there! I don't want you to also…"

Tang Feifei was deeply touched that Qin Fang was willing to take such risks for her brother, but at the same time, she couldn't help but think about the perilous situation. Even her brother, a special forces soldier, found himself in danger—what could Qin Fang possibly achieve there?

"You little imp! Do you look down on your husband that much?"

Qin Fang's tone suddenly shifted as he pinched Tang Feifei's nose lightly and scolded her playfully with a huff. Then he released her gently and said, "Feifei, watch closely…"

Without another word, Qin Fang moved slightly from Tang Feifei's side, his body shifting just a little. In an instant, he turned into something akin to a breeze brushing softly against the skin, and his figure suddenly disappeared right before Tang Feifei's eyes.

Yes, he truly disappeared!

Tang Feifei looked utterly astonished, instinctively rubbed her eyes, suspecting she was seeing things. But indeed, Qin Fang seemed to have vanished completely.

"Qin Fang, Qin Fang… where are you?"

Faced with such an eerie scene, Tang Feifei felt a bit uneasy, calling out into the empty room with a slightly trembling voice.

"Feifei, I'm right in front of you…"

As if responding to her call, Qin Fang's voice suddenly echoed beside her ear, as if he were standing right next to her.

"Where are you?"

Even more shocked, Tang Feifei looked left and right. Although the voice was clearly close, she couldn't see Qin Fang anywhere, leaving her utterly perplexed.

"I'm here…"

Qin Fang spoke again, and this time, the voice was even closer.

Then, while Tang Feifei was still confused and amazed, Qin Fang's figure gradually materialized right in front of her eyes, about two meters away. No wonder his voice had sounded so near!

"Qin Fang, how did you…"

Tang Feifei's eyes widened in surprise, and she opened her mouth to ask about the strange phenomenon.

"Feifei, keep watching…"

Before she could finish her question, Qin Fang interrupted her. His figure quickly disappeared again.

This time, it was slightly different from the pure vanishing act earlier. Qin Fang now moved like a ghost, appearing and disappearing unpredictably, his movements strikingly phantom-like.

Tang Feifei's wide eyes were filled with endless wonder,her small mouth hung open in shock and remained agape for a long time as she was completely stupefied!

It wasn't until she felt her delicate cheek being lightly pinched a couple of times that she snapped back to her senses. Staring at the man she was closest to, her mood became terribly indescribable…

"Qin Fang, was that… magic?"

After gathering herself, Tang Feifei deliberated for a long while before hesitantly choosing a word to describe what had just happened, though she wasn't fully convinced that it was accurate.

"Magic? I guess you could say so…"

Qin Fang chuckled lightly, clearly surprised by Tang Feifei's imagination. "But to be exact, it's 'Thousand Skills'!"

After a brief moment of thought, his words didn't seem entirely unreasonable.

Magic tricks are essentially forms of deception or sleight of hand, akin to visual illusions. In the ancient Dragon Country, they were also called "performance acts," and were derived from the small techniques within Thousand Skills—a very rough classification of it.

What Qin Fang employed just now was his Stealth Skill. As his proficiency in the skill had greatly increased, its effectiveness had also improved significantly, especially in rooms with messy lighting like this one, where intersecting light sources further amplified the benefits of his Stealth Skill.

Qin Fang's Stealth Skill was an evolved form of Japan's Ninjutsu. To be precise, Ninjutsu could be considered a basic derivative of Thousand Skills, specifically some rudimentary aspects of the Qimen Dunjia Technique. This alignment also explained why Qin Fang's Stealth Skill was even more powerful than regular Ninjas' Ninjutsu. With his Cheating Skills bolstered by the Qianji Ring, he had already reached an advanced level, making his Stealth Skill increasingly formidable as well.

The combination of these two factors had led to the stunning results witnessed earlier.

Of course, it also had to do with Tang Feifei being an ordinary person unversed in martial arts. Her sense of detection and awareness wasn't particularly sharp, making it impossible for her to perceive Qin Fang's presence.

If replaced by a highly skilled expert, they would easily pinpoint Qin Fang's location.

Against such experts, Qin Fang would need to conceal his aura completely, which would make his stealth slightly less effective, resulting in the intermittent visibility of his second demonstration earlier.

These technical details, Qin Fang naturally didn't bother explaining to Tang Feifei—there was no need for it and it would only increase her worry. Besides, with his performance earlier, Qin Fang had already achieved his objective.

"Feifei, see for yourself—I can protect myself just fine. I'll definitely bring your brother back!"

Thanks to his earlier display, Qin Fang's words of assurance now carried significantly more conviction, and Tang Feifei's resistance wasn't as strong as before.

"But… but… those people have guns!"

However, when Tang Feifei thought about the terrorists' powerful firearms, she couldn't help but worry about the safety of both Qin Fang and her big brother. Guns don't discriminate, and in the dense wilderness, getting shot would undoubtedly be incredibly dangerous.

"Don't worry, Feifei! To be honest… I have guns, too!"

Since he had already revealed so many secrets, Qin Fang didn't see any harm in showing a bit more.

As he spoke, his seemingly empty hands flicked casually, and Tang Feifei only saw a blur before noticing two pistols suddenly appear in Qin Fang's hands.

Tang Feifei, born into an influential family with a long lineage of military connections, was no stranger to firearms. Her brother and uncles were in the army, and her grandfather had joked in the past about matchmaking her with a "solid military man."

Of course, that was merely a lighthearted remark that no one took seriously. Still, it even hinted at the Tang Family's notable influence within the military.

Being raised in such a family meant Tang Feifei had handled guns before and knew more about them than Qin Fang once did.

Now, with just one look at the guns Qin Fang had produced, she could instantly discern that they were genuine firearms.

"Qin Fang, how did you… how did you…"

Seeing the two pistols appear from nowhere left Tang Feifei dumbfounded. Moments ago, she'd been intimately holding Qin Fang, yet hadn't noticed any concealed weapons.

And now, the guns had suddenly manifested—it was beyond bizarre.

However, after experiencing Qin Fang's earlier display, Tang Feifei's reaction was more composed this time; she was less awestruck and more intrigued.

Still, the only lingering question was—where had Qin Fang gotten these guns?

He had traveled with her to Hong Kong Island, passing through security without a hitch. Although Qin Fang possessed a legal gun permit, he typically wouldn't carry firearms unless absolutely necessary—let alone bring two pistols on a trip initially intended as a face-saving venture rather than a life-threatening mission.

"Heh heh… I also brought a big guy along. Want to see?"

Since so much had already been revealed, Qin Fang decided he might as well show even more. That way, Tang Feifei wouldn't be so easily alarmed or worried over minor things in the future.

"Mm!"

Curious as ever, Tang Feifei nodded eagerly upon hearing Qin Fang's offer.

The temperatures on Hong Kong Island were mild, and they both wore lighter clothing. Tang Feifei couldn't figure out how Qin Fang had managed to hide the pistols, let alone whatever "big guy" he was referring to.

Her excitement grew, wondering just what this "big guy" could be.

"Feifei, keep your eyes wide open… Now is the moment to witness a miracle!"

In pursuit of impressing his beloved, Qin Fang spared no effort, even borrowing the iconic line of a famed magician. With a casual gesture, he reached behind himself and then swiftly extracted something.

"Ah…"

Tang Feifei let out a small shriek, her shock amplifying with a mix of surprise and excitement.

Indeed…

The previously empty hand of Qin Fang now held something—a large, heavy object—a full-sized sniper rifle!

The hefty weapon weighed dozens of pounds yet rested lightly in Qin Fang's grasp.

"It's so heavy…"

Not wanting to believe her own eyes, Tang Feifei reached out to try and hold the massive gun herself, only to discover its weight simply wasn't something her slender frame could handle.

Unquestionably, this "big guy" was real! (To be continued. If you enjoyed this story, please visit Qidian [qidian.com] to cast your votes for recommendations and monthly updates. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
