Chapter 84 Ye Xinyis Good Intention (2/2)
”Twenty-six.”
”A 26-year-old master of Transforming Strength. You truly are talented in martial arts. The number of masters at this stage in the whole Black province is supposedly less than 10. I'm one of them and Master Hou had five of them, four of which are known as the Four Heavenly Kings, and the other one is Gongben Xinyi, who is the strongest among Master Hou's fellowmen.
Xiao Bing was surprised, ”He's from R country?”
”Yes. He's an unfathomable master of the sword. He's far better than the four Heaven Kings. But, I haven't seen him in a fight so it's hard for me to know his real strength.”
Xiao Bing contemplated for a while and found a fact quite surprising, ”According to what you said, there are less than 10 masters of the Transforming Strength stage and Master Hou has five of them?”
”Not only five. There is a guy called Qin San the Dark Crow, who is the general of Master Hou's Crow Troop. He holds the most mysterious force of Master Hou. They are all masters of attacking and assassinating. He must be at the Transforming Strength stage as well.”
Xiao Bing put on a bitter smile, ”It seems that all the great martial masters are under his leadership.”
”Basically that's true. Of course, there are only ten masters of the Transforming Strength stage who are known by others. However, the greatest always hide among the busy streets and there may be other masters of the same stage that we don't know about. Overall, the number is close.”
Xiao Bing sighed, ”Master Hou has half of the great masters in the Black province, which makes him the king of this province's underground, instead of the small Jiang city.”
”It's not enough. You will know in the days to come.” Looking at Xiao Bing, Bao Lei said sternly, ”I have a question. That night...the horrific power you showed is of what stage? I can't believe that I can't tell.”
Xiao Bing smiled bitterly, ”I don't know what happened either. I'm still confused.”
”Just as I expected. I should leave. See you next time.”
”Bye!”
While watching Bao Lei as he strode away, Xiao Bing said to Dumbass, ”This man is very powerful and I'm inferior to him. Not only is Master Hou's force unfathomable the Ye Family's strength is also as deep as the ocean.”
Dumbass scratched his head and asked stupidly, ”Where should we go now? The noodle house?”
”Let's go check on the process.”
Xiao Bing got in a taxi with Dumbass and he paid the driver when they arrived. The walls between the two structures were knocked down and the whole site had greatly changed. The workers were busy working when they walked in.
The foreman gave Xiao Bing a cigarette after he saw him coming. Xiao Bing took it and looked around. The space was at least twice as large as before. Except for the expansion of the hall, there were a few more private rooms. It seemed that the project was about to end.
Xiao Bing lit his and the foreman's cigarette and asked, ”How many days are left?”
”About three days. We are all at full speed as you asked and I can assure you that we haven't taken any shortcuts. You can check on it.”
”Good,” said Xiao Bing smilingly, ”You guys did a pretty good and fast job. I'll give you the rest of the money if everything is good and I'll take you to a feast afterward!”
The foreman laughed, ”Boss, wait for the completion!”
After he finished checking, Xiao Bing said, ”Keeping do your job, I'm leaving now.”
Xiao Bing had rented a small apartment around the noodle house for Dumbass before and Dumbass had been living in it. After walking out of the noodle house, Xiao Bing said, ”Dumbass, stop following me around. I'm going home now and you should get some rest.”
”No, ” said Dumbass, ”I'm not stupid. Doesn't that woman want to kill you? What if she still sends men to kill you? I should keep protecting you.”
Xiao Bing grinned, ”Don't worry. My body may not have recovered completely, but it's still hard for them to kill me.”
”You're still a patient and you should listen to me. I will send you home before I go back.”
”Alright. I don't want to make it difficult for you.” While Xiao Bing was saying so, a limousine pulled over. Inside was a sexy woman who was wearing a loose t-shirt, loose cropped trousers, and high heels. She was wearing a white mask and big sunglasses, which made it difficult for them to see what she really looked like. But, one could still tell she was beautiful by her shape and elegant temperament. An ugly face wouldn't be worthy of all that.
When she saw Xiao Bing standing in front of her, she took off her sunglasses instantly and seemed very surprised.
