The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 344 - 345 News of Parents
(The release schedule for this story has been irregular lately, and there will be two more chapters today with one owed for the weekend. The author doesn't want to stay up late anymore.)
"Brother Fang!" Yu Wanli looked at the newcomer with relief as his anxious heart finally settled, and he let out a huge sigh of relief.
The strength of Lin Qian before them was overbearing. The soldiers chasing them were slain in a flash, but precisely because of this, he was extremely suspicious.
If Lin Qian really had a failed plan, he might take action directly.
Zhao Zhili and Yu Wanyu, upon seeing Fang Ziqian's arrival, felt both surprise and concern. They quickly gave Lin Qian a meaningful look, signalling him to run away fast.
Their own brother was incredibly stubborn and would surely tell Fang Ziqian about his suspicions of Lin Qian, and the latter would certainly believe his own brother.
Even though Lin Qian was powerful, in their eyes, he probably couldn't handle Fang Ziqian if it came to a confrontation. If Lin Qian continued to stay, he would likely face a dead end.
"Brother Fang, this person, who calls himself Qian Ling, claims to be from the Huaxia Empire, but his actions are very suspicious…" Yu Wanli put away the Primordial Weapon aimed at Lin Qian and hastily shared his suspicions with Fang Ziqian, "Therefore, I suspect that all of this may be his scheme, and he is actually a Qin Dynasty spy."
As Yu Wanli said this, he stared at Lin Qian, only to find that Lin Qian was looking back at him with a half-smile, and started walking towards him.
Yu Wanli was taken aback; logically, after having his identity exposed, the other should be trying to flee. Why was he, instead...
However, seeing the cold expression on Fang Ziqian's face, Yu Wanli felt reassured. As he looked towards Lin Qian, he thought viciously, "Prepare to face Brother Fang's wrath, you Qin Dynasty spy!"
"In fact, I can understand you. Being cautious is never wrong. But I've saved your sister and brother-in-law twice, and you once. Don't you ever use your brain?" As Lin Qian spoke, he had already arrived in front of Yu Wanli and suddenly kicked out.
Lin Qian didn't use much force in his kick; otherwise, he would have killed the man on the spot. Yet, even so, Yu Wanli was sent flying, crashing heavily against a Spirit Wood behind him, as dark bruises and blood poured out in great gushes, he screamed in pain while clutching his injury.
"I am not someone who kills without reason, but you've slandered me without cause, so you have to take this kick," Lin Qian said, looking at Yu Wanli who had fallen to the ground, with a touch of amusement, "This kick is actually helping you. Otherwise, that hidden injury would have exploded, and you would have been ruined. There are gentler methods, but you'll just have to suffer for half a month, consider it your punishment."

Zhao Zhili and Yu Wanyu were about to step forward to help, but at that moment Fang Ziqian yelled, "Don't help him, let him suffer on the ground a little longer!"
Zhao Zhili and Yu Wanyu, who were about to step forward, froze and looked at the furious Fang Ziqian with a mix of fear and shock.
"Someone's dear nephew, a commandant in the army, died and someone flew into a rage, lashing out and killing several of his own soldiers. Does this commandant have a sick mind? Using his own nephew in a ploy to fake his death?" Fang Ziqian glared at Yu Wanli, his face extremely unsightly, "He was my friend! By your words, am I a spy now too?"
These words were like thunder on a sunny day to Yu Wanli, Zhao Zhili, and Yu Wanyu, causing their heads to buzz.
Especially Yu Wanli, who was completely dumbfounded, not knowing how to face Fang Ziqian.
Now he realized that Fang Ziqian's dark expression was aimed at him all along.
Although it felt like every bone in his body might have shattered, the pain was unbearable, he clearly understood the favor Lin Qian's kick had done him.
The more Yu Wanli thought, the more ashamed and embarrassed he felt, even daring not to lift his head to look at Lin Qian and Fang Ziqian.
"Alright, you three go back and rest," Fang Ziqian waved his hand irritably, instructing Zhao Zhili and Yu Wanyu to help Yu Wanli.
Both hurried to help Yu Wanli up from the ground, and when they approached Lin Qian, both wore somewhat embarrassed expressions.
Upon seeing this, Lin Qian responded with a smile. After the three left, he looked at Fang Ziqian with puzzled intrigue, "Why have you followed me here again?"
Realizing that Lin Qian had posed a question, Fang Ziqian quickly asked in return, "Aren't you searching for a scripture called 'Body Refining'?"
Hearing Fang Ziqian mention the Body Refining Scripture, Lin Qian suddenly perked up and eagerly asked, "What, do you have the Body Refining Scripture?"
Fang Ziqian shook his head and said to Lin Qian, "I certainly don't have it, but my old man has managed to find some information about it for you."
Lin Qian's face brimmed with joy upon hearing what Fang Ziqian said. Even news about the Body Refining Scripture was a tremendous gain for him.
The Body Refining Scripture was exceedingly important to Lin Qian; only after the Puppet Body plan was successful could War Generals and War Beast Generals make an early appearance.
With War Generals and War Beast Generals leading them, the combat power of the Imperial Army and the War Beast Army was on a whole different level compared to the present.
"The Body Refining Scripture belongs to the Yun family of the Central Domain. The Yun family started their legacy with Artifact Refining and Array techniques and are a colossal entity in the Central Domain. This Body Refining Scripture is a masterpiece of a Yun family genius."
"That Yun family genius is extraordinary. Not only proficient in Artifact Refining and Arrays, but their Martial Soul has also awakened the Yun family's Ancestor Level Martial Soul, Cloud Sword."
Hearing this, Lin Qian's breathing hastened, and he quickly rushed in front of Fang Ziqian, grabbing his shoulders, "What did you say, the Yun family's Cloud Sword?"
"That's right. Aren't you getting a bit too excited?" Fang Ziqian looked at Lin Qian, somewhat puzzled.
He had first learned of this news when he overheard his grandfather murmuring about obtaining information about the Body Refining Scripture but lamenting that he couldn't tell Lin Qian.
Driven by curiosity, Fang Ziqian directly asked his grandfather what was going on, and Fang Shuiwen shared the news with him.
It was only later that Fang Ziqian remembered and hurried over to inform Lin Qian.
However, he noticed that compared to the Body Refining Scripture, Lin Qian seemed particularly sensitive to the mention of Cloud Sword.
"So that's how it is. Mother is from the Yun family of the Central Domain." Realizing this, Lin Qian clenched his fists, "Father, Mother, I finally found news of you."
After calming his excitement, Lin Qian felt quite fortunate.
Not only had he received information about Body Refining, but he had also learned news of his parents.
"Brother Fang, thank you for letting me know," Lin Qian said, bowing his hands in thanks to Fang Ziqian.
Fang Ziqian waved his hand and told Lin Qian, "I'm glad I could help. There are still matters regarding the water forests in the two states that need to be discussed with Li Yunfeng and Yang Tianhao, so I will take my leave now."
After bidding farewell to Fang Ziqian, Lin Qian continued on his way toward the direction of the Qin Dynasty, his eyes filled with determination.
"Father, Mother, wait for your son to grow stronger, then I'll come to the Central Domain to find you."
