65: Chapter 65 Ni Zhiqiang 65: Chapter 65 Ni Zhiqiang “Qin Han, this is as far as I can help you,” Mr.

Xu said with a smile as he looked at Qin Han.

“After all, we still have to consider that person behind the Ni family.”

“I still have to thank you, Mr.

Xu!” Qin Han nodded in response.

“Mr.

Xu, I’m afraid you can’t handle this matter!”

While Mr.

Xu and Qin Han were talking, a loud voice suddenly came from the hall.

Although the voice was not very loud, it overshadowed everyone else present.

Everyone looked up and saw five young men in blue tracksuits standing at the entrance.

Leading them was a tall man, eight feet tall, with a stern face, now looking towards Qin Han.

The attire of the five men was clearly out of place at this banquet, but no one in the room dared to laugh.

For, embroidered on the right side of their chests were four characters in seal script—Martial Arts Association!

The expressions of those present varied, but all spontaneously maintained their silence.

When Ni Zhiwei saw the newcomers, his face immediately showed delight, and he hurried forward, saying, “Second Brother, when did you get back?”

The person who had arrived was none other than Ni Zhiwei’s own second brother—Ni Zhiqiang.

“Why has he come?” Mr.

Xu secretly wondered in his heart.

In Long Nation, standing at the pinnacle of the world, surrounded by numerous formidable enemies and yet standing unshakeable, was not only thanks to its powerful military guarding the borders but also thanks to two significant civilian organizations—Holy Medicine Sect and Martial Arts Association!

The Martial Arts Association was originally a social organization formed by martial artists from the capital, later expanding nationwide, assisting in handling tasks inconvenient for the military.

Thus, its influence in Long Nation was also immense.

Five years ago, the Ni family was barely considered a first-rate family.

The reason Ni family had reached its status today was because of Ni Zhiqiang!

Since Ni Zhiqiang had come down from the mountain five years ago, already an Innate Martial Artist, he joined the Martial Arts Association directly, helping the Ni family successfully reach the ranks of the top powers in Zhongzhou.

Five years ago, Ni Zhiqiang was already an Innate elite; with his talents, who knew what monstrous level he had reached now.

Ni Zhiwei was one thing, but when Ni Zhiqiang handled matters, he never considered any consequences.

Seeing Ni Zhiwei approach, the stern man said, “I just arrived.

After hearing from the butler that you were hurt yesterday, I wanted to come find you, but I never expected someone would actually dare to lay hands on you.”

Saying this, he glanced at Qin Han again.

Ni Zhiwei’s heart blossomed with joy; his second brother had always cared for him since he was a child, getting him whatever he wanted.

He thought to himself, “Hmph, now I’ll see where you can run off to.

The Xu family might be a big clan in Zhongzhou, but they’re nothing in front of the Martial Arts Association.”

“Ni Zhiqiang, what do you want to do?

Today is a business gathering hosted by the Xu family as per the city government’s request; you…” Mr.

Xu had not yet finished speaking when Ni Zhiqiang’s right foot took a step forward.

An overwhelming momentum pressed forward, causing Mr.

Xu to suddenly find it hard to breathe, making it impossible for him to continue speaking.

“Family Head!” A man in black next to Mr.

Xu immediately rushed forward, standing in front of Mr.

Xu.

“A mere Acquired Stage eight-tier Martial Artist dares to step forward?” Ni Zhiqiang said with an icy expression.

He extended his hand, swiping through the air.

“Pugh!” The black-clad man spit out a mouthful of blood, flew out like a kite whose string had snapped, and heavily crashed onto a table in the hall, not getting up again.

“Uncle!” Xu Shimo exclaimed in alarm.

The rest of the people present were all thoroughly shocked, their eyes filled with horror.

Was this the legendary strength of the Ni family’s martial arts prodigy?

Terrifying indeed!

“It looks like that young man is going to be in big trouble today!”

Ni Zhiqiang’s gaze was as sharp as a blade, taking a glance at the pale-faced Old Master Xu, then surveying the surroundings before finally landing on Qin Han as he coldly said, “Are you Qin Han?”

The Xu family hall was completely silent at that moment.

Those who were swept by Ni Zhiqiang’s gaze felt a chill rise from their feet, as if they had fallen into an ice cave!

Ni Zhiqiang’s presence was just too overwhelming!

Qin Han’s expression remained calm, seemingly indifferent to Ni Zhiqiang as he replied lightly, “Yes, I am Qin Han.

What about it?”

Ni Zhiqiang took another step forward, fixing his stare on Qin Han as he said, “You’ve got guts, daring to mess with the Ni family!”

With each word he uttered, the pressure on the people around him intensified.

Old Master Xu, who had never practiced martial arts and was merely an ordinary man, how could he withstand the oppression of a martial artist?

His legs trembled violently, about to be crushed to the ground, and just as he was about to kneel, he suddenly felt darkness before his eyes, and the pressure on him vanished without a trace.

Looking up, he saw Qin Han had stepped in front of him.

Song Yuwei was trembling uncontrollably at this moment.

With Ni Zhiwei having been beaten up by Qin Han like that, Ni Zhiqiang would definitely not let Qin Han off easily today.

She had heard somewhat about martial artists, who often killed people at a whim.

What to do?

“Has the quality of the Martial Arts Association’s personnel really fallen to this level?

Have you forgotten the rules?

You even strike at ordinary people?”

Song Yuwei was still scared, but Qin Han spoke calmly.

Seeing Qin Han stand in front of Old Master Xu, with his own presence seemingly having no oppressive effect on him, Ni Zhiqiang frowned and said.

“I was wondering who would dare to lay hands on a member of the Ni family, turns out it’s also a martial artist.

Who do you take as your master and from which sect are you?”

Although Ni Zhiqiang was ruthless and reckless in his actions, he wasn’t a fool; he first inquired about Qin Han’s background to avoid provoking someone untouchable, since in the world of martial arts, there still exist some reclusive masters.

“No sect, no master!” Qin Han glanced at Ni Zhiqiang, his expression indifferent and even somewhat vacant, showing no hint of emotion.

Mystic Rank Nine!

With just one look, Qin Han had discerned Ni Zhiqiang’s cultivation level.

Ni Zhiqiang, just over thirty, had reached the ninth level of the Mystic Rank, a monstrous existence in today’s world.

Ni Zhiqiang watched Qin Han, somewhat baffled.

Qin Han appeared…

utterly ordinary, without a trace of a martial artist’s aura about him, but he was yet as stable as Mount Tai under his own imposing air, especially his frail stature, which made him seem just like an ordinary person.

“Kid, since you have no sect or master, don’t blame me for being ruthless!” Ni Zhiqiang coldly stated as he looked at Qin Han.

“Enough noise!” Qin Han said as he was about to walk forward.

But Song Yuwei next to him held him back, her voice trembling, “Qin Han, don’t go over there…”

Qin Han turned to look at Song Yuwei and saw her face drained of color, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears.

He patted Song Yuwei’s hand, transmitting some Inner Strength to her, and said with a smile, “I will be fine.”

After that, he slowly walked toward Ni Zhiqiang.

Zhou Wenfeng, not far off, saw Qin Han walking directly towards Ni Zhiqiang and also turned pale.

As a scion of a major family, he knew much more about the existence of martial artists than ordinary people did.

Ni Zhiqiang had already reached the Innate five years ago, and from the aura he emitted, it was possible he had already advanced to the Mystic Rank.

If Qin Han were to clash directly with him, he very likely would…
