Chapter 1218: The Opportunity for a Breakthrough!


Second update, asking for subscriptions, monthly tickets~~~ I'm still sick, please understand!

...

The appearance of Tu San indeed brought a lot of pressure to Qin Fang. Having such a ruthless madman secretly eyeing him, it's uncomfortable for anyone.

Especially since this madman is always heartless and ruthless, and never considers anything else. Anyone who dares to block his path, he will absolutely eliminate directly.

It's said that among those he has killed, more than two-thirds were innocent victims, simply because this guy was in a bad mood or found them displeasing...

Qin Fang personally wasn't afraid of Tu San, but he was worried that this madman would attack the people around him, which was what Qin Fang was more concerned about.

"We should go back..."

Chu Yunxuan knew that the "little trouble" Qin Fang mentioned might not be so small. He only said it that way to not worry her, but she couldn't pretend to know nothing and thus suggested this.

Anyway, they've mostly played enough, and the rest here doesn't matter as much. She didn't have much interest anymore.

"Mm, let's go back..."

Qin Fang thought about it and agreed they should return. He was still waiting to prepare the Berserk Potion, so staying here had no purpose.

"Yunxuan, do you remember the formula I gave you? Once we return, arrange for someone to gather the materials. I need them..."

Thinking of this, Qin Fang told Chu Yunxuan, as she was responsible for these matters.

"Okay, no problem..."

Chu Yunxuan nodded, agreeing crisply.

However, she couldn't help but frown. If she previously felt that Qin Fang's little trouble was quite troublesome, now she knew it might be very significant, forcing Qin Fang to prepare like this.

She had seen that formula and had once said there were defects, and the side effects could be considerable. She did not recommend it for the average person.

But now that Qin Fang had to prepare this potion, it could only mean he was pushed to such an extent, indicating this trouble was definitely extraordinary.

Chu Yunxuan knew she couldn't help Qin Fang much in terms of martial ability, so she made sure not to hold him back with the potion preparation. Almost immediately after agreeing, she contacted Ninghai to have the personnel in charge of purchasing medicinal materials there start acquiring the various ingredients listed on the formula.

Compared to those Chinese medicinal materials, procuring these chemical reagents was still somewhat simpler, with only a few reagents being a bit troublesome, as they couldn't be purchased domestically. Chu Yunxuan planned to prepare them herself upon returning.

Being a pharmacology expert, she had some skills in pharmaceutics too, otherwise, Chu Yunxuan wouldn't have said the materials were fine just by looking at the formula.

With Chu Yunxuan's assurance, Qin Fang didn't say much more, greeted Wu Jian, and then returned to Jiangzhou Urban Area together.

Although Wu Jian was not too happy about this rushed visit, remembering the heavy rain last night, he felt apprehensive. Moreover, seeing the barely smiling faces of Qin Fang and Chu Yunxuan, replaced by seriousness, he dared not say much.

Before long, Qin Fang and the group returned to Jiangzhou and back to the hotel.

Once Chu Yunxuan returned, she went out to make preparations, leaving Qin Fang alone in the hotel.

Qin Fang took out the Assassin's Alliance computer and logged into the assassin's trading platform, searching for information on the Bloody-handed Demon Tu San.

The information on Tu San didn't have much value, being mostly the same old stories Qin Fang already knew. The latest piece was about Tu San failing to protect Han Long...

As for Tu San's recent whereabouts, there wasn't any reveal.

After thinking for a bit, Qin Fang paid with points to ask the Assassin's Alliance to search for Tu San's current whereabouts as a paid service. Although it consumed quite a bit of points, Qin Fang thought it was worth it.

Although Tu San was a loner, figuring out his location wasn't too difficult. A simple inquiry could reveal it, especially since Qin Fang had recently stirred up several sensational events in Jiangzhou, almost beckoning Tu San saying, "I'm here, I'm here."

Qin Fang wasn't too concerned about his whereabouts being too obvious, he just didn't want Tu San, this opponent, always lurking in the shadows...

The enemy hiding while he's exposed is an extremely unfavorable situation, not to mention this enemy is the terrifying Bloody-handed Demon Tu San.

Tu San's power doesn't lie solely in his martial arts; his gunmanship is equally formidable. Qin Fang has personally experienced it. If this guy hides in the shadows with a sniper rifle aimed at Qin Fang, then bam, fires a shot...

Even with Qin Fang's extremely keen perception and strong ability to predict danger, it would still be very difficult to avoid such an assassination.

Qin Fang's Life Points are quite high now, possibly even immune to those crude bullets. However, against regular firearms, he doesn't have much resistance, let alone sniper rifles, which are basically lethal with one shot… unless it hits a non-critical area.

Therefore, Qin Fang thought for a moment and decided to reduce his chances of appearing and eliminate Tu San's opportunities to strike before finding out Tu San's whereabouts.

Only after discovering Tu San would Qin Fang choose to duel him one-on-one, giving him no chance to harm others. Otherwise, more innocent people might suffer.

"Strength… Strength is crucial!"

Thinking of this, Qin Fang suddenly felt that his strength was still not enough and that he needed to train harder to be more certain of facing Tu San.

"Perhaps, this battle is my time to break through..."

At the same time, Qin Fang also vaguely sensed that this near life-and-death battle might be the best chance for him to step into the Grandmaster Level.

His current strength has been stuck at Level 5 Peak for a long time. His Experience Points keep accumulating, but his level never reaches Level 6 Grandmaster, just lacking that final push.

Once he crosses this threshold, Qin Fang's subsequent cultivation will be a smooth path, with few obstacles to reach the Grandmaster Level Peak.

However, he has always been searching for this breakthrough opportunity but has never found it.

The best opportunity for breaking into the Grandmaster Level is through a life-and-death battle. For instance, the young Japanese swordsman just pricked into a hedgehog by Chu Yunxuan's Storm Pear Blossom; he broke through to the Grandmaster Level under that pressure, but he made the wrong choice and embarked on a dead-end...

Qin Fang is the same; what he lacks is also an exhilarating life-and-death battle, one that can squeeze out all his potential.

He had faced many Grandmaster-level experts before, but unfortunately, none reached such a level; all died easily at his hands.

Even those few who forced Qin Fang to use his trump cards were far from pushing him to his full potential… So Qin Fang is, instead, very much looking forward to this battle with the Bloody-handed Demon Tu San.

Of course, there are those far exceeding Qin Fang's strength, like Elder A Rong of The Green Gang, whose Grandmaster Level prowess left Qin Fang struggling to breathe. If not for Qin Fang's miraculous Snow Traversing Step, he really wouldn't last three moves...

But this was just a spar; Elder A Rong had a ruthless hand, but mostly it was a lesson, not much killing intent.

Qin Fang was the same; he had no killing intent. Otherwise, he would have directly taken out his gun and swept the people of The Green Gang thoroughly, and hardly anyone could escape, not even the Grandmaster A Rong Elder...

Without killing intent, it is not a genuine life-and-death battle. It can't push him to seek survival in death, nor can it make Qin Fang exert all his combat power, so the opportunity for breakthrough didn't appear.

However, with the Bloody-handed Demon Tu San, in terms of overall strength, the two seem to be well-matched, and the Bloody-handed Demon Tu San holds a slight advantage.

Regarding the danger, Tu San is a notorious butcher, hence the Bloody-handed Demon's title, and has never left a living soul. This battle will inevitably end with one person's death... making it a true life-and-death battle.

As to whether Qin Fang will fall at the hands of Tu San or the Bloody-handed Demon Tu San will be ruthlessly slaughtered by Qin Fang, that depends on their specific performance then.

The danger of this big battle, Qin Fang is naturally well aware of; he may very well lose his life... yet Qin Fang is not afraid!

True champions grow out of blood and fire battles. He desires to become the King of Assassins, which means he cannot be intimidated by any opponent.

If a mere Tu San could frighten him to such a state, making him too afraid to fight, how could he ever face even more terrifying figures in the future? He wouldn't even have the courage to meet them...

For Qin Fang, the Grandmaster Level is a threshold, a real progression into the master class, and the foundation for many future things he wants to do.

Finding the opportunity for a breakthrough isn't easy; Qin Fang doesn't want to waste so much time waiting either. After all, time waits for no one, and he is getting a bit impatient.

"Bloody-handed Demon Tu San, I hope you don't disappoint me..."

Silently chanting this name in his heart, looking at the bustling metropolis outside the window, Qin Fang's eyes became exceptionally firm.

"Qin Fang, I hope you have the life to live until the day I avenge myself with my own hands!"

Almost at the same time, somewhere far away, another person was also gazing out the window, silently chanting, but the expression in his eyes was filled with deep hatred. (To be continued.
