Qin Fen? The middle-aged man paused for a moment. I think I’ve heard this name somewhere before… I originally thought that this young man may be the rumored Shang Guan Chuan Qi in Saturn. I didn’t expect it to be this name.
The world of martial dao masters was a whole other world. A martial artist who could be famous in the martial dao master world might not necessarily be equally famous in the ordinary man’s world. For instance, a strong man like Lu Dongbin could kill the State of Korea’s Martial God, Bae Seong-Joon, and a martial dao master like Kyokushin Kouten easily, but his name was very unfamiliar to ordinary people.
Even a fourteen-star quasi-martial dao master might not have heard of a martial dao master’s name before. It was just a difference of one or a half star-level between them, but they were in two different worlds entirely.
Although Qin Fen was not considered known by everyone in the martial dao master world, he was almost there. The series of events that happened more than half a year ago made everyone’s name in Qin Fen’s team quite well known.
Besides martial dao masters, those who had heard of Qin Fen multiple times were the head of big families or high-level politicians in the Federation.
The square-faced martial artist was still confused and the other quasi-martial dao master’s face suddenly filled with shock. The Qin Fen who killed Bae Seong-Joon! The State of Korea was in the newspaper for a while because of this incident. They had requested the Federation to protect the citizens’ rights, to safeguard the dignity of the law, and to sentence Qin Fen to death according to the law.
At that time, many quasi-martial dao masters who had despised such news. Bae Seong-Joon showed disdain for the martial dao world and had killed many people! If you really want to execute the death penalty, what Bae Seong-Joon had done in the past was probably enough to get himself shot dozens of times.
Unfortunately, the newspaper sales of the State of Korea’s daily newspaper were too low. Many martial artists did not have the habit of reading newspapers at all, and naturally, they would not notice this news.
Elysium and Inferno’s expression turned somber and gloomy. According to the two major groups’ internal information, they already knew that the operation at the natural cemetery had failed. Almost all the strong men sent by the two major groups died in the hands of the same person, and that person’s name was Qin Fen.
Now Qin Fen appeared here all of a sudden, and Elysium and Inferno martial artists’ facial expressions were all very displeased.
The square-faced undercover police, after a careful reminder from his companions, finally understood who the man they were facing was. He was actually the young man targetted by Qilin, and any young man was allowed to attack him.
The punch with great momentum just now attracted a lot of people’s attention. More police gathered around, and they stared at Qin Fen carefully.
Many fans had also willingly left the good seat that they had queued hard for, and surrounded the scene while carefully holding various folding stools, small iron bars, screwdrivers, iron wrenches, hammers, and other similar civilian tools.
Anyone who was not an idiot in the Federation knew that the Flying Hearts opposed terrorism. Even the superior divine beast martial artists knew about this.
As loyal fans, they naturally knew that listening to this concert was accompanied by great danger, but they still came with no fear of danger, and most people were armed with all kinds of fighting tools. This was because if the Flying Hearts was to meet with danger, everyone could rush to protect these two courageous little girls.
Qin Fen looked around at the crowd gradually encircling him, and he felt a little warmth in his heart. Many people talked about courage, but when it was really needed, they would always vanish into thin air.
This was just like the so-called lavishness of many people. Normally, they would say things like ‘brothers’, ‘buddies’, or ‘anything for my best pal’ every now and then. However, when you really needed the money, this lavishness would disappear. Even a cent or two would be sufficient enough to drive many people’s lavishness.
The martial dao strengths of these fans were very weak, but even though they saw someone punch with such a power, they still dared to rush up. This kind of silent support was many times stronger than those who only knew how to brag about things.
“Everyone, everyone…” The square-faced policeman shouted while moving around the field with two numb arms raised, “This is a misunderstanding. Please return to your seat. Thank you.”
The police began to disperse. As the fans saw this situation, they immediately understood that the square-faced martial artist was an undercover police, and they all returned to their original position.
Qin Fen dialed Ya Xin’s phone number and finally got a reply.
“Hello, is this Brother Qin? I haven’t seen you for a long time. How are you now?”
Ya Xin’s projection floated in the air in front of Qin Fen, and suddenly attracted the attention of many fans around them. No one rushed to surround them immediately and stayed in their own position, respecting the personal privacy of this popular little empress. At the same time, they cast a very envious look at Qin Fen, This person can actually contact Ya Xin.
“Brother Qin, I miss you.”
Ya Fei’s lovable face appeared in the projection too, and the surrounding police officers also stepped back. Anyone, as long as they are not blind, could see that Qin Fen and the Flying Hearts had a very special relationship.
There was a hint of gloom in Qin Fen’s facial expression. There’s something wrong with these two little girls. The smiles on their faces were so sweet that it could make one faint, but this type of smile was not sincere and somewhat fake.
Smile? Lin Ling could be said to be the person who can smile the most perfect smile in this world. The kind of perfect smile with no emotions at all could deceive almost everyone in the world. It was far more professional than these two little girls’.
“I miss you too.” Qin Fen’s eyes scanned past Ya Fei and Ya Xin and stopped to look at the staff behind them. He became more curious. According to the Flying Hearts’ agent, Miss Fiery, their team was very stable, unless they had a staff change. However, I have not seen many of these staff members before, and their martial strength is far stronger than the previous staff members.
“I am outside the stadium. I would like to go in and see both of you. Do you have time?”
The smiles on the two girls’ faces showed more genuine happiness, but then they abruptly fell into silence. Their pupils glanced quickly at a position that Qin Fen could not see through the screen. There was some disappointment in their expressions. They shook their heads and replied, “Brother Qin, we are at the most intense stage in preparing for our concert. I am afraid that we have no time. Let’s wait for next time.”
Qin Fen’s lingering gaze met with Lin Liqiang’s, and they saw each other’s contemplative expression. This expression would not mean anything in the eyes of ordinary people, but something could be spotted under the observation of a like-minded person.
“Is that so?” Qin Fen shrugged his shoulders, “By the way, where is Miss Fiery? I haven’t seen her for a long time. Please send my regards to her.”
Both Ya Fei and Ya Xin’s facial muscles twitched slightly, but the stiffness disappeared in a flash to revert to cute smiles. They nodded continuously, “En, en, we will convey it.”
“In that case…” Qin Fen muttered softly while he looked at the steadiness of the staff behind Ya Fei and Ya Xin. He frowned slowly. These people are not curious at all. The two girls are in a call but they didn’t look over here even once. “Then I will come back to meet you again another day.”
“Oh.” The two girls looked at Qin Fen affectionately. This time, there was no falsehood at all. They said together softly, “Keep it up, Brother Qin!”
When the projection screen was turned off, Qin Fen nodded slightly to greet the people around him. He put his arms on Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota’s shoulders before turning to leave.
“Old Qin, it’s a bit interesting.”
“En.” Qin Fen nodded with a worried face. Every time he called in the past, the conversation always ended with the appearance of Miss Fiery and her bad words towards him. However, Miss Fiery never appeared this time, and when he mentioned Miss Fiery, the two girls’ expressions showed that there was something wrong.
Qin Fen knew the Flying Hearts well. Although Miss Fiery was bad-tempered and often shouted at her employees, her heart was not evil at all, and she cared about everyone.
Especially Ya Fei and Ya Xin — Miss Fiery cared about both of them like they were her own sisters. Ya Fei and Ya Xin also cared about Miss Fiery very much. When talking about Miss Fiery in the past, both their faces would always be overflowing with bliss, but there were no signs of bliss this time. In fact, there was deep concern and hidden fear.
“What are you planning to do?”
Qin Fen turned off the phone’s projection function and dialed Yang Lie’s office number, “Help me check something. The accommodation of the Flying Hearts tonight.”
“Ok!”
“Master Qin, take care.” The square-faced undercover police rushed towards Qin Fen. He once again saluted and said respectfully, “I’m Liu Kongquan. Could I please know where you are staying so I can visit someday to thank you?”
Qin Fen looked at Liu Kongquan and suddenly whispered, “How is Miss Fiery lately?”
“Miss Fiery?” Liu Kongquan looked puzzledly at Qin Fen, “Master Qin, who is this Miss Fiery you are talking about…?”
Qin Fen looked at Liu Kongquan’s expression, and his heart sank slowly, “Is today your first day of duty? May I know what your position is?”
“Master Qin, I am the Deputy Police Bureau Chief of this city.” Liu Kongquan answered respectfully in the face of Qin Fen, who was younger than him, because Qin Fen’s martial dao had far surpassed him, “I have been in charge of this place from the beginning. It’s not my first day here.”
Qin Fen’s heart instantly sank to the bottom. Liu Kongquan’s attitude was sincere and unpretentious. Even a city’s Deputy Police Bureau Chief does not know the existence of Miss Fiery. This was really not a good sign!
According to his understanding of Miss Fiery through his contact with her, this woman had a strong desire to rule, and she would handle everything personally. Even if it was about police arming, she would often appear to command. Although no police would actually listen to her, that would not prevent this queen from appearing in any corner of the concert.
Liu Kongquan does not know such a person at all!
“Master Qin, who is the Miss Fiery you just talked about?” Liu Kongquan’s eyes lit up and the police asked instinctively, “Does she has anything to do with Flying Hearts? Is there a problem with our security?”
Qin Fen secretly praised Liu Kongquan who was indeed a Deputy Police Bureau Chief. He had really good observation skills. With just a simple question, he could sharply observe subtle things.
“Nothing.”
“Really?” Liu Kongquan stared at Qin Fen worriedly, “Master Qin, Flying Hearts just won the All-Federation super top idol, and this is their first concert held outside of Earth. Their popularity has reached a height that no artist has ever achieved historically. If they encounter any accidents here, it will be really troublesome! If you find out anything, be sure to inform me as soon as possible.”
“Okay.” Qin Fen patted Liu Kongquan’s nervous shoulders, “Don’t worry, there is no problem. Also, if you don’t want anything to happen to the two girls, then don’t ever mention Miss Fiery’s name to anyone.”
Liu Kongquan listened to Qin Fen’s warning, and his body felt like it was falling into ice. As the Deputy Police Bureau Chief and an experienced policeman, how could he not know the meaning behind Qin Fen’s words?
However, Qin Fen did not say anything more. Even a quasi-martial dao master couldn’t forcefully ask anything from this young and strong man. At the same time, he couldn’t nervously tighten the security immediately. If I add a large number of police forces to tighten the security now, isn’t it telling the enemy in hiding that the police had noticed something?
By the time Liu Kongquan recovered from his thoughts, Qin Fen and the other two men had already disappeared into the crowd. It was too easy for such martial dao masters to avoid a non-martial dao master’s tracking. Even if CCTVs were installed on the street, they wouldn’t really be able to detect them either.
Liu Kongquan looked back at the huge stadium, his hands and feet feeling a chill. Before he knew it, his forehead was doused in crystal clear cold sweat.
In a coffee shop on the street, Qin Fen tapped into the Internet-connected computer provided by the shop. He wanted to check the news about the Flying Hearts. A small message window popped up from the lower right corner of the projection screen.
Saturn’s highest peak, Mount Tianwang, mysteriously collapsed. It is suspected that unknown martial artists battled at the peak. There will be no more Mount Tianwang in the world from now on.
Mount Tianwang? Qin Fen closed the small window. These days, information spread really rapidly. People still paid attention to remote places like Mount Tianwang.
After Qin Fen searched for news about the Flying Heart, he realized that this huge amount of information was far greater than the information regarding the small Mount Tianwang.
Qin Fen looked at all kinds of information carefully and found that one of the fans had raised doubts three months ago. The two sisters of Flying Hearts had improved their singing skills but lost the soul of their music.
Of course, this post had then been smashed badly by countless of other fans.
“Three months ago?” Qin Fen’s finger tapped on the edge of the cup filled with water, “If that’s the case, they might have already been having problems when they were still on Earth. Perhaps it’s a very serious problem, so serious that they couldn’t even contact me.”
“Miss Fiery…”
Qin Fen thought about it and found that even when they came to Saturn, Miss Fiery still appeared in the media. In fact, she appeared more than once, but each time, her speeches were short. She still seemed very high-spirited in the photo, but that genuine exhaustion could not be concealed by makeup.
“Miss Fiery’s speech’s energy field is also a lot weaker than before.” Qin Fen heard his phone ringing, and Yang Lie’s voice sounded in his ear, “They aren’t living in a hotel, they booked a huge stand-alone villa. They will go back there every night to take a rest. The address is…”
