The Villain's Counterattack

The farce ended with Bu Jingyun crippling Qin Jiao and Duan Lang throwing the red gauze skirt to Qin Ning.

"Qin Ning, Qin Ning, I planned all of this early this morning. Even the figure you saw was my disguise," Duan Lang said, his voice piercing his heart. "I deliberately hid from you and your son, went back to my room, closed the door, and immediately left through the back window. By that time, your men hadn't had time to surround us on all sides, so I immediately rushed back to the three young masters, waiting for you to fall into my trap."

"If you were wholeheartedly serving the public, and even had selfish motives to achieve merit, instead of trying to frame me and Feng, you wouldn't have gone looking for the three young masters. Instead, you would have led your men to surround this place, capture the assassin, and invite the gang leader."

"But you made the stupidest choice!" Duan Lang sneered, "I didn't know you were so stupid. My design was very crude. The bloodstains on the ground are almost dry, and the smell of blood is faint. It's obviously not possible that they were left just now. If you use your brain, you will find the problem, but..."

"To prevent you from being too clever and discovering something was wrong, I took the initiative to wipe away the bloodstains on the ground, leaving only a small amount near the closet. And you were as foolish as I expected, truly believing the assassin was hiding in the closet."

"I am a Grandmaster after all. My Qi is best used for healing. I lack lethality, but that doesn't mean my perception and reaction are weak. On the contrary, my perception is sharper than that of an ordinary Grandmaster, and I'm not necessarily weaker than an average Grandmaster." Duan Lang pointed at Qin Ning and shouted angrily, "You are openly targeting me, but in reality, you are insinuating yourself against Feng everywhere. This is what I really can't accept!"

"Who do you think you are? A corrupt and narrow-minded coach, a rude, ignorant and self-righteous fool. If you are really allowed to take the position, it will be a great misfortune for the Tianxia Association!" Duan Lang strode out and pulled Nie Feng out of his room.

Qin Ning's face turned pale and purple. He had actually been plotted against and framed so easily?

It was indeed as Duan Lang said, his little tricks were not very clever. If he had no selfish motives, he would not have fallen for it. However...

There is no if, so I fell into the trap. His plan was completely aimed at me, and he calculated my character to the letter.

Bu Jingyun glanced at Qin Ning and his son, then followed them in big strides. Qin Shuang took the bright red gauze skirt off Qin Ning's head and placed it in his hands. "I'm willing to accept the loss. There are so many gang members watching outside. I don't want Coach Qin to break his promise and make a fortune. This time, you are really wrong."

Feng Yunshuang and the other two walked along with Duan Lang. "Feng, you have been ordered to guard the inner hall of the Tianyi Pavilion. There are many precious things in there. Even though I have been walking around the Tianyi Pavilion for many years, I have never entered it. Be careful and don't be careless."

Nie Feng nodded seriously. "The gang leader said the assassin would definitely go and snatch the Iron Corpse Male Silkworm, determined to get it. That's why he ordered me to take charge. I won't take it lightly. But the assassin is already injured, and he won't be able to recover for more than a month. I'm not too worried."

"Wrong!" Duan Lang shook his head and confirmed: "I'm not worried about the assassin, but Qin Ning!"

Feng Yunshuang and the other two looked at each other in confusion when they heard this, not knowing what he meant.

Duan Lang looked at their expressions and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Do you know why Qin Ning and Qin Jiao, father and son, dislike each other and make things difficult for each other?"

Nie Feng and Qin Shuang had never thought about this carefully, and they couldn't help but feel puzzled. Bu Jingyun was smarter, "Your existence is a threat to Qin Jiao. Junior Brother Feng's position..."

Nie Feng understood what he said instantly and couldn't help feeling heartbroken.

Duan Lang nodded and said, "Feng was accepted as a disciple by Xiong Ba. His status and position are superior to others. His martial arts skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and he is even more famous in the martial arts world. In Qin Ning's eyes, all of this should belong to his son Qin Jiao. Among the younger generation in the entire Tianxia Association, he believes that Qin Jiao, under his training, is superior and cannot be inferior to Feng."

"You should know that Qin Jiao is not only inferior, but also far inferior to you. Even I am three blocks away from him. But they have always been so mysteriously confident, unwilling to believe the facts, and even distrusting the leader's judgment."

"This is very dangerous." Duan Lang put aside his own anger and turned to talk about the danger posed by Qin Ning and his son. "It would be fine under normal circumstances, but this time it is an opportunity for Qin Ning and his son. The leader is injured and recuperating, and there are assassins hiding in the Tianxiahui, and everyone is in a state of panic. Qin Ning has many elite disciples and confidants under his command, and his status is too advantageous at the headquarters."

"This time, he failed to slander me, but instead damaged Qin Jiao's martial arts. For the sake of his own face, Qin Ning will certainly not give up easily, and may even intensify his efforts and target Feng!" He bit the last three words very hard.

Bu Jingyun heard this and slowly uttered a word: "Tianyi Pavilion, inner hall, Iron Corpse Male Silkworm!"

"Impossible!" Qin Shuang exclaimed, "He can't be so crazy, it shouldn't be possible."

As he spoke, Qin Shuang himself became a little unsure. After all, he was indeed a little disappointed with Qin Ning. They couldn't see through Duan Lang's simple and crude plan, and were completely led by the nose. It was really unworthy of his high-level status as the head coach.

"Feng, you must be cautious, especially now that you see Qin Ning and Qin Jiao approaching the Heavenly Doctor Pavilion. You should be doubly cautious. Brother Shuang, Bu Jingyun, I hope that at least one of you will keep a close eye on Feng's situation." Duan Lang's words left the two men slightly puzzled. "What about you?"

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy and attracting Qin Ning's attention, I will go out frequently, using the excuse of practicing the Eclipse Sword Technique without telling the leader." Duan Lang's words made them look at each other in confusion. Nie Feng suddenly said, "Lang, you really want to practice the family sword technique, right? Otherwise, I will personally plead with the leader..."

"I will bring this matter up to Master in person." Qin Shuang took the initiative to take on this task. He wanted to see whether Qin Ning, a veteran figure of the Tianxia Association and a senior executive as the head coach, would harm the interests of the Tianxia Association for his own selfish reasons.

"Thank you, Brother Shuang!" Duan Lang still admired Qin Shuang very much. Except for being blindly loyal to Xiong Ba, he was pretty good in all aspects. In the future, Tianxiahui might really need him to take charge.

Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng are not suitable. Although I am suitable, I am too lazy to care. Only Qin Shuang is the most suitable candidate, but unfortunately his martial arts skills are a little bit lacking.

Deep in the night, Qin Ning clutched his son Qin Jiao's hand, tears streaming down his face. Qin Jiao angrily said, "Father, you must avenge me. I want Duan Lang dead. I must make him die!"

"Don't worry, Jiao'er. Duan Lang humiliated me like this. Even if I have to risk the punishment of the gang leader, I will tear him into pieces!" Qin Ning said that his son's disability was not as important as his own face.

"Father, I don't want to be a cripple. I'm the most skilled martial artist among the younger generation in the Tianxia Association. I don't want to be a cripple!"

"Okay, okay, Jiao'er, don't worry. Bu Jingyun acted decisively, but left room for maneuver. It's not your martial arts that won't hurt your Dantian. You can completely start practicing again and make a comeback."

"But the time for the selection of the Four Heavenly Kings is short. If I miss this opportunity, I'm afraid..."

"Well, there's a magical elixir in the inner hall of the Heavenly Doctor Pavilion that can make you recover quickly. However, the gang leader is in seclusion right now, so I can't disturb him. Otherwise, I'd find you and ask for it."

"Father, Nie Feng has been ordered to guard the inner hall of the Heavenly Doctor Pavilion and protect the Iron Corpse Male Silkworm. If he can..."

"Don't talk nonsense. How could it be the inner hall of the Heavenly Doctor Pavilion? But if it can be done, perhaps Nie Feng and Duan Lang can be eliminated at the same time. It's a pity..."

I can’t beat him. I really can’t beat him.

"I have something in my hand called Yibeidao, which is an extremely effective drug. It is colorless and like water with a slightly sweet fragrance. It may be able to help you, but it is very expensive." Suddenly, an old voice sounded behind them.

"Senior~" The two were shocked, and then burst into ecstasy.
