Almighty Genius

Chapter 1726 - 1374: Exposed!

"People from The Green Gang?"Qin Fang wandered around here a few times, and indeed, he noticed some anomalies.

However, he didn't spot any grandmaster-level martial arts experts, but rather, he saw quite a number of Qing Gang Disciples frequenting this place.

The Green Gang, although the largest underground force in Jiangzhou, is known for its disciplined members who typically do not meddle in certain affairs easily.

Yet, for this antique exhibition, several factions have already formed an alliance, making their strength quite formidable. The defense is already tight, making the involvement of Qing Gang Disciples unnecessary.

Moreover, although the Qing Gang Disciples are quite disciplined, at the end of the day, they are still part of the underworld, with inherently murky backgrounds, so how could they be asked to help?

"If they're not here to help, could it be...?"

Qin Fang couldn't help but furrow his brow. The Green Gang's influence in Jiangzhou is quite significant, and Boss Kui is an exceedingly dominant figure. If he gets involved, then the waters will truly be muddied!

If someone muddies these waters, it can only mean someone wants to fish in troubled waters.

"There's something wrong, definitely something wrong..."

Qin Fang kept a close watch on these Qing Gang Disciples. Although they counted as elites, including Level 3, Level 4, and even Level 5 experts, there wasn't a single grandmaster-level expert among them.

This contradicts Tang Cheng's account to some extent, as from Tang Cheng's description, there should be at least ten such experts.

However, as far as Qin Fang knows, among all the disciples of The Green Gang in Jiangzhou, there may not even be ten grandmaster-level experts in total.

Moreover, such experts are nearly all of Boss Kui's most powerful enforcers, each a renowned figure. Even if Tang Cheng didn't recognize them, at least he could have found information about them.

Yet, in fact, even after Tang Cheng had someone investigate afterward, nothing was discovered. These experts seemed never to have existed in the world, with not a shred of information found!

This either indicates that these people are very adept at hiding their identities, or that they recently emerged from deep in the mountains and have not been out for very long…

"No, could it be the Tang Sect people..."

With this thought, Qin Fang suddenly recalled that there seems to be a force in Jiangzhou fitting such a description—unexpectedly, his old enemy Tang Huaiyuan and his group.

The Tang Sect has long been sealed off, and if it weren't for Tang Nan's matter, Tang Huaiyuan wouldn't personally be leading his forces out.

Originally, the twenty or nearly thirty people brought out were almost all disciples under Tang Huaiyuan or experts dependent on him.

However, after Tang Huaiming's Blue Island expedition, in pursuit of Qin Fang that failed, he ended up getting himself killed, along with more than a dozen Tang Sect Disciples.

This loss was indeed quite painful for Tang Huaiyuan, which is why since then, he has been very cautious, guarding the remaining dozen or so disciples.

These disciples are almost all grandmaster-level experts, the most important force under Tang Huaiyuan. If they were to suffer further losses, he would truly be left with nothing.

Perhaps fearing further losses of these disciples, even knowing that Qin Fang is in Jiangzhou, Tang Huaiyuan has been restraining himself.

Qin Fang found it quite strange, but he never considered this angle.

"Could it be that there's something at this antique exhibition that Tang Huaiyuan has set his sights on?"

But after Tang Cheng brought up this matter, Qin Fang couldn't help but suspect it.

Though Tang Huaiyuan's hatred for Qin Fang runs deep, he's not making any moves, which already indicates there's something fishy going on.

And though Qin Fang hasn't yet seen any Tang Sect Disciples, his first suspicion is immediately on the Tang Sect... which can only indicate that there might be a particular treasure among the antiques that Tang Huaiyuan covets. Thɪs chapter is updated by ⓝovelFire.net

Ordinarily, it's no big deal if Tang Huaiyuan is interested in some antique, as any collector would love these rare treasures, especially given the high caliber of the exhibition and its displayed items…

This kind of exhibition is sure to attract many collectors to visit, and if Tang Huaiyuan has such interests, he wouldn't miss it.

But Qin Fang always felt that Tang Huaiyuan is not that sort of person. If he really sent people here, there must be some unspeakable secret.

"Huh, it really is a Tang Sect Disciple..."

Almost as soon as Qin Fang was pondering this possibility, his eyes were busy, constantly deploying his Scouting Skill, surveying the flow of people.

Indeed, his luck was better this time, as he soon captured sight of a Tang Sect Disciple, unmistakably a grandmaster-level expert.

Then, Qin Fang gradually identified seven more grandmaster-level experts, of which five belonged to the Tang Sect's disciples, and the other two grandmasters were from The Green Gang…

These grandmaster experts were also disguised as ordinary people, mixing among the crowds. Though the area around the National Exhibition Center was already under strict security, such a lineup made people even more curious about the exhibition, so even before it had opened, quite a number of people were already lined up outside.

And precisely due to the large turnout, these experts blending in with the crowd were not particularly conspicuous.

This discovery wasn't enough to really concern Qin Fang, but what truly shocked and puzzled him was that the six Tang Sect Disciples and two Qing Gang experts seemed to be on the same side.

Despite not showing any intimate gestures towards each other, Qin Fang noticed they were secretly communicating, occasionally gesturing towards the National Exhibition Center's buildings as if discussing something. Unfortunately, Qin Fang was too far to hear what they were saying.

"Could Tang Huaiyuan be planning a heist?"

Qin Fang suddenly thought of a possibility, a notion so crazy even he found it hard to believe. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
