Chapter 909: Regret, Si Fuqing’s dical Skills, Pain in the Face (1)
Due to his secret mission, Xi Jiang and Feng San always kept a low profile among the Mo family’s non-clan mbers, remaining unnoticed and without any reputation or fanfare.
Xi Jiang making it to the top four in the martial arts assessnt was already astonishing to everyone, even more so when he defeated Feng Dong with a single move.
But for him to achieve an SSS rating in hidden weapon crafting was beyond anyone’s imagination.
In the history of the final assessnt, there had been a few S-ratings, but never an SSS.
This was because external mbers were thought to have a ceiling on their abilities.
Feng Dong’s smile gradually froze, and he shouted incredulously, “This is impossible!”
His outburst was sudden, but successfully brought everyone back to reality.
“SSS… the last S-rated contestant only managed to create the ninth-ranked hidden weapon…”
“What on earth did he create? I suspect it’s one of the top five hidden weapons!”
“This is terrifying; I can’t even imagine it.”
“The Elder Council has always been fair,” the second elder looked coldly at Feng Dong. “If you have any objections, win against first.”
Feng Dong couldn’t catch his breath, his body trembling uncontrollably.
It felt like a thousand bees were buzzing around his ears, his mind was ringing, and his vision turned black.
Mo Chuyi was also perplexed but didn’t react as impulsively as Feng Dong. She frowned and left the scene with a cold expression.
Feng Dong ant little to her; he could be replaced at any ti.
Seeing Xi Jiang’s high rating, she always thought of recruiting him.
She felt a pang of regret.
Why hadn’t she directly trained Xi Jiang herself?
“Congratulations, Brother Tan,” many people ca forward to congratulate Xi Jiang. “Congratulations on achieving first place.”
Xi Jiang remained humble and steady. “Thank you, everyone.”
After this assessnt, Xi Jiang beca well-known in the Mo family, with everyone recognizing that an external mber had achieved power on par with the core family mbers.
Father Tan couldn’t stop smiling, finally feeling relieved. Before he could pull Xi Jiang aside for a private word, the Elder Council had already taken Xi Jiang away.
As the assessnt concluded, Si Fuqing stood up. “Brother Nine, I’m going back to send my grandma off”
Yu Xiheng nodded. “Go ahead.”
In the courtyard, their luggage was already packed.
“Grandma, I suspect your sedative has been tampered with.” Si Fuqing handed a bottle of dicine to Old Lady In, her expression serious. “I’ve helped regulate your body. Within a year, using your evolved abilities normally shouldn’t cause a loss of control, but there’s always a chance.”
“This is an auxiliary dicine I refined over the past two days. If you feel unwell, take one. Don’t tell anyone.”
Old Lady In’s eyes turned cold. “It seems many in the In family still want dead.”
There were too few Class A or higher evolved beings for the In family to allow internal killings.
Those who wanted Old Lady In dead could only resort to other ans.
The In family was ironically the safest place.
Si Fuqing’s tone was indifferent. “Let them try.”
The In family was too far from the Great Xia Empire, so her sensing talismans weren’t very effective. She gave Old Lady In so single-use attack talismans and several new handguns before letting the great elder escort her out.
On the way, In Qiushi hesitated. “Actually, with the little young lady’s dical skills, this alone was worth the Elder Council to invite her back.”
Having followed Old Lady In for so long and communicated multiple tis with the Evolved Beings Alliance and the families of Lotebar and Kusonoki, he had never encountered a doctor capable of suppressing an out-of-control evolved being’s power through acupuncture.
It was a widely accepted truth among evolved beings that once their power was entirely out of control, there were only two ways to restore normalcy: self-control or administering a specific sedative.
No other thods existed.
This was an established truth within the circle of evolved beings.
Yet, Si Fuqing had cured Old Lady In.
Such dical skills could shake the entire evolved being community!
Any evolved being family would treat her as a guest of honor.
“Yes, I know, but great power is both a blessing and a curse,” Old Lady In murmured. “I just want them to live well. That’s enough for .”
She would rather In Beichen and In Yaonian not be Class S evolved beings and live ordinary lives than beco targets due to their outstanding talents.
In Qiushi’s expression grew solemn.
Indeed.
Si Fuqing’s extraordinary dical skills might lead so faction to capture and confine her.
The In family hadn’t been able to protect In Beichen and In Yaonian in the past, and now they might not be able to protect Si Fuqing.
In Qiushi sighed. “Old Lady, let’s test the waters first. Those people have been gone for a long ti and haven’t returned. We can definitely bring back the second young master and the little young miss.”
Old Lady In nodded, her expression icy. “Let’s go back first. I want to see who still wants dead this ti.”
There were only a few people in charge of the sedatives, and she would investigate each one!

In the courtyard.
“Hey, Tangtang,” Si Fuqing called Yu Tang. “Did Brother Nine book your ticket? We’re going to Eastern Mulberry on the twentieth for the competition. I sent you a VIP ticket for the OPL event.”
Yu Tang, hearing the familiar nickna, missed the rest of the conversation and exclaid, “Qingqing, has Uncle Nine already won you over?!”
She had been imrsed in her studies for a while, and suddenly everything seed to have changed.
Should she prepare a wedding gift?
Yu Tang counted the money in her small treasury, beginning to worry.
Si Fuqing was checking the information of other teams. “What do you an by won over?”
Yu Tang: “…”
She understood now.
Her Uncle Nine must have bribed Si Fuqing with money!
“The ticket is booked.” Yu Tang coughed twice. “Qingqing, this ti you don’t need to hold back. Crush the Western Deities team!”
After the call, she stealthily posted in a forum.
[@HaiTangFlower: Brothers and sisters, if one day Qingqing has soone outside, what are your thoughts?]
[??? The hatred of taking my wife is irreconcilable!]
[Who dares to steal my wife! Where’s my forty-ter-long sword?]
[Ah?! Qingqing is too young. Mom won’t allow it!]
[Let’s analyze this rationally. Since Qingqing started acting, neither of her dramas had a male lead. The actors she interacted with, like Teacher Mo, have kids preparing for junior high. Teacher Mo, even looks genuinely afraid a certain female actress of cutting him with a sword through a thousand cuts.
I don’t rember anyone else being significant in her variety shows, so the current male top stars in the industry are out of the question. If there’s soone, it’s likely an outsider. But I doubt it. Qingqing seems solely focused on her career. If she does have soone, I think Lu Xingheng from the dical segnt of ‘The Birth of An Employee’ would be a good match. He’s got the looks, the build, and he’s a doctor! Perfect male lead material!]
[ 1 1 1 I also think Lu Xingheng is good, but his aura is weaker compared to Qingqing.]
Yu Tang browsed through the comnts.
Ninety percent of Si Fuqing’s fans believed she was solely focused on making money.
Yu Tang sighed.
Qingqing’s love for money was evident to all.
Her Uncle Nine was truly pitiable.
Yu Tang quickly took so screenshots and sent them to Lu Xingheng.
[Yu Tang]: If you don’t take to play gas and dare to kill , I’ll send these screenshots to my Uncle Nine.
[Lu Xingheng]: …
[Lu Xingheng]: I’ll take you. I’ll stand still and let you kill . Ancestor, please don’t harm .
Yu Tang was very satisfied.
Her Uncle Nine was truly effective everywhere.
Although she didn’t understand why soone as arrogant as Lu Xingheng feared her Uncle Nine, it didn’t stop her from bullying him.
Yu Tang gave herself a ntal pat on the back.

In the afternoon, the prototype of the Unseen Needles of Grace created by Xi Jiang was specially displayed in a glass case by the second elder, showcased to the Mo family’s direct descendants.
Mo Chuyi looked at the exquisite hidden weapon and couldn’t help but gasp.
The prototype of the Unseen Needles of Grace was crafted by an external mber?!
No wonder Xi Jiang’s hidden weapon rating was the highest, SSS.
Such a top-tier hidden weapon, even with blueprints, wasn’t easily made.
That’s why the Mo family had openly shared the teor Sleeve Arrow blueprints.
They had been public for decades, yet only about eleven or twelve external mbers had managed to make them.
“See that?” the second elder said. “You all need to step up your ga, or you’ll be overtaken.”
Mo Chuyi’s expression turned grim. “Yes, thank you for the guidance, Second Elder.”
She took a deep breath, even more determined to recruit Xi Jiang.
With Xi Jiang, perhaps she could create the Unseen Needles of Grace herself.
Mo Chuyi left the exhibition area hurriedly, feeling a surge of excitent.
Feng Dong was waiting outside.
As an external mber, he wasn’t allowed inside.
Seeing Mo Chuyi co out, he opened his mouth. “Miss Chuyi, I…”
Mo Chuyi ignored him and walked straight past.
Feng Dong clenched his fists, gritting his teeth. He then saw the second elder coming out and imdiately approached.
The second elder didn’t rember Feng Dong and gave him a cursory glance. “What do you want?”
“Second Elder, I have a question,” Feng Dong’s voice was loud. “Why does Xi Jiang have an SSS rating? What hidden weapon did he make? I’m not convinced! Why is my rating lower than his?”
“Why an SSS rating? Fine, I’ll tell you why!” The second elder finally looked at him, coldly saying, “Because he created the prototype of the Unseen Needles of Grace! Because the Unseen Needles of Grace can be brought back to life in his hands! Are these reasons enough for you?”
If he couldn’t understand this, what was the point of staying in the Mo family?
