Chapter 32: Are You Kidding Me?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

1.20pm.

At a milk tea shop near No. 1 High School.

Fang Ping actually wanted to go to a cafe, but Sun City as it was right now was not economically strong enough. He searched around No. 1 High School but could not find a cafe anywhere.

Keeping in mind that he was still a student, Fang Ping eventually settled on the milk tea shop.

Fang Ping had been waiting here for almost half an hour by now.

Finishing yet another cup of orange juice, Fang Ping raised his head to look outside the door. Suddenly, he stood up and yelled, “Brother Wang, over here!”

...

Outside.

Wang Jinyang smiled and strode toward Fang Ping.

Fang Ping hurriedly stood up to greet him, ordering a cup of lemonade from the tearista at the counter before he bade Wang Jinyang to sit with him.

Wang Jinyang could not help but smile slightly at his actions. This junior of his was much more mature than your average high school student.

Once the two of them took their seats, Fang Ping did not beat around the bush. He immediately took the initiative, saying,

“Brother Wang, to be honest, I’m quite surprised you could make it.

“I didn’t have particularly high hopes when I called you, so I’m surprised you’re actually here, Brother Wang.”

Wang Jinyang was in no hurry to speak, waiting for the waiter to serve his lemonade before he said with a chuckle,

“I just happen to be in Sun City, so I thought I’d do you a favor while I’m here.

“Also, don’t worry about it. To be very honest, I don’t mind lending you a hand if the problem is simple.

“But if it’s too troublesome, I’m afraid I won’t be able to help too much.”

“I understand perfectly.”

Fang Ping nodded. This was only natural. He was not Wang Jinyang’s close friend or sworn brother; they were merely acquaintances.

Now that they had that out of the way, Fang Ping went straight to the point. “Brother Wang, I’ll cut right to the chase now.

“Everything I told you over the phone wasn’t false.

“But the situation is considerably more complicated than I made it seem.

“If the man I hurt was merely injured, I would’ve gone straight to the cops.

“I don’t think the aftermath would be too troublesome either.

“After all, he is a bad guy. The cops should reward me for catching him...”

Wang Jinyang nodded slightly and sipped his lemonade before he said with a small smile, “Continue.”

“That’s not the main problem. The main problem is that the guy isn’t your regular criminal. He’s similar to you, Brother Wang.”

“Hmm?”

Wang Jinyang’s heart skipped a beat, but he did not say anything. He just raised his head to look at Fang Ping, encouraging him to carry on.

“I subdued the guy and he took some damage. Now I’ve hidden him somewhere.

“But I found some rather lucrative goods on-site too, and they’re worth more than I ever imagined.

“I won’t beat around the bush with you, Brother Wang. I want to keep some of those goods for myself, but I’m worried about leaving a trail.

“That’s why I called you here, Brother Wang.”

Wang Jinyang’s eyes sparkled. This young junior of his was much bolder than he had imagined!

When he said the guy was similar to him, it must mean that the man was a martial artist.

Fang Ping had taken down a martial artist and grew greedy at his loot, so he did not want to hand the man over to the authorities, in case he lost the booty...

Wang Jinyang just had to give it some thought and he immediately understood why Fang Ping called him up.

Fang Ping wanted to monopolize the loot, but he did not know how to clean his tracks, so he wanted Wang Jinyang to take the pressure for him.

Wang Jinyang was not against it, but it came down to the potential profits.

He tapped the table lightly. Wang Jinyang was no antiquated fossil, fixed in his ways. After a moment’s deliberation, he said in a low choice,

“For now, I won’t ask how you took him down.

“I’ll just ask you these questions:

“One, are you sure he’s similar to me?

“Two, are you sure he’s a bad guy?

“Three, how much are we talking about here?

“Four, how do you intend to split the goods?”

If the profit margin was too low, Wang Jinyang was not going to get involved in this.

If the target was a good guy, this would be a crime. Even if he did not surrender Fang Ping to the police, he would not be an accomplice to his actions.

He would not break the law for a small profit, because it would not be worth it.

That was why he had to get everything clear beforehand.

“I’m sure he’s similar to you.

“I can’t be a hundred percent sure he’s a bad guy, but I’m 90% certain. He’s still alive, and he asked me not to take him to the station.

“As for the profit margin...”

Fang Ping held up a splayed hand.

“500 thousand?”

Wang Jinyang lowered his voice. He did not think it was 50 thousand, because he was a martial artist, after all. If Fang Ping came to him for so little money, he would truly be an idiot.

“Ten times that!”

“Cough cough!”

Wang Jinyang was a little shocked. 5 million? Even to him, that was an astronomical sum.

5 million... and a martial artist...

All of a sudden, Wang Jinyang’s expression changed slightly.

It was not like there were no martial artists walking about with 5 million. Even the martial artists in Sun City were probably worth that much.

The problem was, Fang Ping mentioned that he was a criminal.

The notion that he had dismissed before immediately returned to him.

There were not many martial artist criminals in Sun City. Martial artists were not uncommon, but Sun City was not exactly flooded with them. This could not be a coincidence.

“A middle-aged man, slightly over 40 years old, about 175cm. He looks like a simple, honest man...”

That was what Wang Jinyang said.

When Fang Ping heard that, his gaze shifted slightly as well, and soon enough, he nodded. “That’s right. Do you know him, Brother Wang?”

“Huh!”

Wang Jinyang was slightly dazed. Who did this kid catch?

‘Are you f*cking kidding me?’

“Was he hurt beforehand?”

“No...”

“Are you kidding me?”

This time, Wang Jinyang said it out loud.

If Fang Ping was not lying, then that man would be Huang Bin!

He was a Peak Rank-2 Martial Artist. In fact, he could have already reached Rank-3!

Such a powerhouse was captured by a high schooler?

Wang Jinyang could believe it if Huang Bin was already grievously injured, and Fang Ping had taken advantage of that. Otherwise, how could Fang Ping capture an uninjured martial artist who was at least Peak Rank-2?

Fang Ping read the shock on his face and laughed awkwardly, “It was all an accident, just an accident.

“Beforehand, I had...”

Before he could complete his sentence, Wang Jinyang stood up abruptly and said, his eyes bright, “C’mon, let’s walk as we talk. Take me there!”

He set the questions aside for now. Once he saw the man with his own eyes, he would have his answer.

As for how they were going to split it, that could wait for later.

“Sure!”

Fang Ping was not the type to hesitate either.

It had already come to this, so he just had to go for broke.

...

On the way, Wang Jinyang asked a few more questions and confirmed that it was indeed Huang Bin.

Even after Fang Ping explained how he caught him, Wang Jinyang was still incredulous.

A Peak Rank-2 Martial Artist met his downfall, just like that!

All it took was a few bottles of drugs and a cost of several hundred bucks to take down a Peak Rank-2 Martial Artist! Huang Bin truly deserved to die!

Come to think of it, Wang Jinyang himself was not much stronger than Huang Bin.

In other words, if he had been caught in Fang Ping’s trap, he would have been defeated as well.

Just the thought made Wang Jinyang shudder.

When he looked at Fang Ping once more, his expression was so peculiar it was a little intimidating.

If this news got out, Huang Bin would probably become the joke of the martial world.

On the other hand, even though he was not a martial artist, Fang Ping would probably be known within the small circle.

...

More than ten minutes later, the two of them arrived at Lakeview Gardens.

Inside Room 201.

When he saw Fang Ping drag Huang Bin out from under the bed like a dead dog, the corner of Wang Jinyang’s eyes kept twitching uncontrollably.

It was Huang Bin. Although his face was spotted with blood, Wang Jinyang could still recognize him from his photo.

A Peak Rank-2 Martial Artist had actually fallen to Fang Ping’s hands!

He was in no rush to look at Huang Bin. Instead, Wang Jinyang looked at Fang Ping and said, with an unprecedentedly conflicted voice,

“Fang Ping, I haven’t respected many people in my life, but you’re one of them. You’re bad*ss!”

“Bad*ss” was the only way he could express his feelings right now.

A Peak Rank-2 Martial Artist had been beaten into a dead dog by a regular person! What the f*ck?!

If everyone was like Fang Ping, what would they ever bother with martial arts anymore?!

Fang Ping laughed awkwardly. “It really was an accident, Brother Wang. Do you know this guy? Is he a bad guy?”

“Yeah, he’s a wanted criminal!”

Wang Jinyang did not hold back, saying with a wry smile, “A wanted criminal who had taken three lives!”

“These aren’t normal murders either. The three people who had died by his hand were all martial artists, two Rank-1 and one Rank-2!

“If the three of them found out about this in the underworld, if they knew that you took their enemy down, they would probably be rolling like mad in their graves.”

Fang Ping did not say anything to that, but Huang Bin began to struggle desperately on the floor!

Right now, Huang Bin was glaring at Fang Ping with the full force of his rage!

He knew that he was in trouble now!

Someone who could clearly explain his exploits, and someone whose blood and qi was even higher than his own... He had to be a martial artist.

Falling into Fang Ping’s hands and falling into a martial artist’s hands led to two very different outcomes!

This time, he was truly done for.

When Huang Bin struggled, Wang Jinyang, who had been chatting calmly with Fang Ping, suddenly gave their captive a kick to the side.

Fang Ping had not even seen him move. All he could see was Huang Bin flying quite a distance away from the force of that kick.

Wang Jinyang stared at Huang Bin, his gaze composed as he said mildly, “I had come here in search of you in the first place, and I searched for you in the White Mountains for several days. To think you were hiding here the whole time.

“Is this fate? You avoided me earlier, but you met your match here.

“If I were you, I’d be wishing for the sweet release of death by now.”

Huang Bin’s bloodshot eyes began to dim gradually.

Wang Jinyang was right. Losing to Fang Ping truly was even worse than losing to Wang Jinyang.

After he gave Huang Bin those words, Wang Jinyang proceeded to ignore him. Instead, he looked at Fang Ping and said, “What did he have on him?”

“A Blood and Qi-replenishing Pill, a Vitality Pill, a Bone-honing Pill, and a Viscera-shielding Pill.”

Fang Ping did not hide anything, but he did not say what rank they were either.

In truth, even if he did not say it, Wang Jinyang could still hazard a good guess.

After all, Fang Ping had mentioned how much they were worth before, and Huang Bin was attempting to reach Rank-3 now.

Wang Jinyang was in no rush to say anything. Instead, he rapidly considered how they could split the goods.

Just then, Fang Ping added, “He might have other things on his person. I didn’t dare to search him.”

It was not that he did not dare to; he had simply forgotten to do it while Huang Bin was unconscious.

Once he woke up, Fang Ping did not dare to untie him, so naturally he could not search Huang Bin.

Wang Jinyang’s eyes lit up abruptly, and his breathing quickened. “He was completely off-guard before you took him down, right?”

It was a meaningless question, to be honest. If Huang Bin was on his guard, the dead dog would be Fang Ping instead.

Indeed, Wang Jinyang was slightly beside himself with excitement. After all, Huang Bin was preparing to go for Rank-3.

Other than the pills, there was something else he needed to get to Rank-3.

That was the ultimate prize!

He had not considered that before, because when they were cornered, people like Huang Bin would rather destroy that thing than leave it to their opponents.

This time, however, Fang Ping had taken him down by surprise.

Huang Bin may not have destroyed anything. If he had, Fang Ping would not have obtained the pills.

Before Fang Ping even said anything, Wang Jinyang walked straight toward Huang Bin.

Fang Ping did not dare to search him or undo his binds, but Wang Jinyang had no such qualms.
