Collect the rags and I become a clairvoyant doctor

Wang Laowu was undoubtedly puzzled by his father's words. He had been thinking that he shouldn't tell his father about Qin Fei's situation, since Qin Fei was currently in too much trouble.

To his surprise, his father was now personally getting involved in the matter, which left Wang Laowu completely bewildered.

What's going on here?

Is Father going to step in and help out?

"What are you spacing out for? You've been here so long, and you haven't managed to gather any useful information?"

Seeing that Wang Laowu was standing still like a piece of wood, the head of the Wang family was so angry that he almost kicked him.

"I wonder what exactly Father wants to know?" Wang Laowu asked, looking up at his father.

"Tell me first what kind of person Qin Fei is," the Wang family patriarch said calmly.

"He's a straightforward person who would go to great lengths for his friends," Wang Laowu said, directly stating his impression of Qin Fei.

"How is his talent for cultivation?" the Wang family patriarch asked again.

“He is very likely the most extraordinary person I have ever met in my life, without exception!” Wang Laowu said after thinking for a moment.

Actually, Qin Fei's talent wasn't particularly impressive at first. However, as time went on, he became increasingly formidable, especially after his dantian was attacked. He seemed to have unlocked a cheat code, becoming unstoppable.

Such high praise?

Upon hearing Wang Laowu's words, not only the head of the Wang family, but even the elders of the Wang family couldn't help but turn their heads.

It's worth noting that Wang Laowu himself is quite a strong person, so to hear such praise from him is enough to demonstrate Qin Fei's extraordinary abilities.

"Such a prodigy could never have been an unknown figure in the past. Do you know anything about his background?" the Wang family head asked.

"this……."

Upon hearing this question, Wang Laowu immediately became somewhat embarrassed.

Although he had put some effort into this area, Qin Fei's past was like a blank page, and he hadn't been able to find any useful information.

So now when his father asks about it, he naturally can't answer.

"You don't know?" The Wang family patriarch's tone suddenly became much harsher.

"I'm sorry, I'm incompetent, but I haven't found any information about his past," Wang Laowu said, forcing himself to speak.

He couldn't possibly make things up in front of so many people if he hadn't found anything.

So now he can only tell the truth.

"If he has no past, how could he possibly appear out of thin air?"

The group of elders began to discuss in hushed tones.

Wang Laowu was unaware of the details and naturally dared not speak out.

"I saw his battle with Wei'er before, and it was indeed amazing. I heard that he has some grudges with the Liu family and the Divine Martial Sect, and now both families want to kill him. What do you think about this?" The Wang family head threw another rather fatal question at Wang Laowu.

Upon hearing this, Wang Laowu felt a shiver run through his body, and immediately lowered his head and said, "This matter is of great importance, and I dare not speak recklessly."

You have to understand that if Qin Fei's matter isn't handled properly, it could very likely cause an even bigger conflict, so how could Wang Laowu dare to speak about such things casually?

"There are no outsiders here except for members of the Wang family. You can say whatever you want, and it doesn't matter if you say something wrong," said the head of the Wang family.

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Wang Laowu hesitated for a moment before saying, "From a family perspective, Qin Fei is indeed someone worth winning over, because his future achievements are limitless. But from a rational perspective, he is not worth saving right now."

"Oh?"

"Why isn't it worth saving?" the Wang family patriarch pressed.

"Because saving him could very likely result in the loss of more people, it's a deal that's likely to lose money."

Although Wang Laowu's words were somewhat heartless, the reality was that they had to consider this factor. If saving Qin Fei resulted in heavy casualties for the Wang family, then even if Qin Fei could become stronger in the future, those who had died would certainly not be able to be brought back to life.

In comparison, rescuing Qin Fei is indeed not a worthwhile deal.

If this were to trigger a tribal war, it would certainly be even more of a loss than a gain.

"But have you ever considered that the two major forces aren't as ruthless as you imagine?" At this moment, the Wang family head put forward a completely new conjecture: "Although they have suffered some losses in personnel and property, they haven't been fundamentally damaged, let alone had their core interests touched. Do you think they would turn into killing gods if these things haven't been touched?"

"Yup!"

Upon hearing his father's words, Wang Laowu's eyes lit up instantly.

Despite the Liu family's current grand display, their actual losses are not significant, far less than those of the Divine Martial Sect. Although the Liu family's Grand Elder holds a high position, he ultimately cannot represent the Liu family's will.

If the Wang family were to stand up and protect Qin Fei at this point, the Liu family's higher-ups would most likely back down.

If you put yourself in Wang Laowu's shoes, he would make the same decision.

"Father, should we help him?" Wang Laowu asked hurriedly.

From a friend's perspective, Wang Laowu definitely wanted to save Qin Fei, but he knew in his heart that saving Qin Fei was a huge undertaking, beyond his means and status, and he dared not drag his entire family into the fire.

So when he realized what his father meant, he immediately pressed him for an answer.

"As the old saying goes, 'The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.' A true sage will not take any action now; let's wait and see," said the head of the Wang family.

"Yes."

Although Qin Fei seems to be in a dangerous situation, his crisis has not yet erupted, so how could the Wang family possibly make a move?

Compared to adding flowers to brocade, providing charcoal in the snow is definitely more worthy of people's gratitude. Besides, the Wang family head only called Wang Laowu over to understand the situation first.

Whether they will help or not is still unknown.

"It seems the situation might not be as bad as I thought."

After leaving his father's place, Wang Laowu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In his mind, Qin Fei was bound to die in this calamity, given the extremely dangerous situation he was in.

But now his father has personally called him over to find out what's going on. If he didn't want to save people, why would he go to all this trouble?

Furthermore, Qin Fei's talent is indeed exceptional. If such a person is saved, the Wang family might benefit from it.

Li family residence.

Li Yan's injuries healed quickly, and after finishing his treatment, he immediately went to Qin Fei and said to him solemnly, "Brother Qin, may I ask what level your combat strength has reached?"

"I don't know," Qin Fei shook his head.

Since breaking through to the late stage of the Earth Profound Realm, this was the first time he had fought someone. Although Wang Wei had lost, Qin Fei still didn't know what level his combat power had reached, so of course he couldn't answer Li Yan's question.

"Would you mind if I had someone test you?" Li Yan said.

"What do you want to do?" Qin Fei asked directly.

“I need to know your true worth now, because this will be your most important asset going forward,” Li Yan said bluntly.

It's important to understand that everyone has their own value. The higher Qin Fei's combat power, the greater his value, which is also an important factor for others to protect him.

Qin Fei understood what Li Yan was planning to do, so he immediately nodded and asked, "So what do you plan to do?"

“You attacked my protector with all your might; he should be able to accurately detect your true combat strength,” Li Yan said.

"OK, no problem."

It was rare for someone to test his combat strength for free, so Qin Fei immediately agreed upon hearing this.

The next realm after the Divine Radiance Realm is the Dao Realm, which means that one begins to touch upon the Great Dao, and one's combat power will be further enhanced.

According to the normal cultivation process, Qin Fei's cultivation at the late stage of the Earth Profound Realm is still far from the Dao Realm, after all, there is still the Divine Radiance Realm in between.

However, Qin Fei's combat power is simply too abnormal. His combat power has definitely reached the Dao Realm. As for what level the Dao Realm is equivalent to, we probably have to actually test it to find out.

Before long, Li Yan's protectors were in place, and Qin Fei did not hesitate at all, directly using the Divine King Sword to unleash his sword intent.

Only sword intent can maximize his combat power, so Qin Fei has to do this.

"Wow, that's incredible!"

Li Yan was also watching Qin Fei use his sword at this moment. When Qin Fei's sword move was unleashed, Li Yan also felt a sense of crisis, and the hair on his body stood on end. This was enough to show how extraordinary Qin Fei's sword move was.

No wonder Wang Wei was almost killed by Qin Fei with a single sword strike; Qin Fei is indeed extremely strong.

Opposite Qin Fei, Li Yan's protector did not dodge. When endless sword light covered his entire body, he flicked his sleeve, and an instantaneous terrifying suction force erupted from in front of him.

He actually absorbed all the power that Qin Fei unleashed.

"His combat strength should be comparable to the mid-stage of the Dao Realm," Li Yan's protector said, stating what he had sensed.

"hiss……."

Upon hearing this, Li Yan gasped in shock.

Although he knew that Qin Fei's combat power had most likely reached the Dao Realm, there was definitely a huge difference between the early and middle stages of the Dao Realm. For Qin Fei, a late-stage Earth Profound Realm cultivator, to be able to unleash such a level of combat power was simply outrageous, utterly absurd.

Everyone knows that the higher the realm, the more difficult it is to cross. Li Yan's current combat power is at most equivalent to the late peak of the Divine Radiance Realm, so he definitely cannot cross over to the Dao Realm.

Even those like Wang Wei, whose cultivation level is slightly higher, only possess combat power at the early stage of the Dao Realm.

Qin Fei's combat power has reached the mid-stage of the Dao Realm, so he can't directly crush Wang Wei.

To put it another way, Wang Wei's previous defeat wasn't actually a bad one; he was indeed somewhat inferior to Qin Fei.

"Brother Qin, can you tell me how you did it?" Li Yan couldn't hold back any longer and asked directly.

"How am I supposed to answer that question? To be honest, I don't know either." Qin Fei wouldn't tell Li Yan that he had restarted his cultivation technique, much less that he was practicing the Devouring Heaven Technique.

This can only remain a secret to myself.

"Never mind, forget I asked."

Li Yan knew that Qin Fei probably didn't want to reveal his secret, so Li Yan could only change the subject himself.
