Inside the partition, Yu Qiang looked respectfully at the antique box in front of him, his face filled with shock!
He had already checked the antique before, and it did not have many rustic Qi Force fluctuations, which was not what he desired.
But when the box was brought back a second time, a mysterious pattern had appeared on it.
The pattern was indeed the secret command of the Tianji Pavilion Master!
Before the Old Pavilion Master's disappearance, his last order was for Yu Qiang to wait for the arrival of the new Pavilion Master in Cloud City.
Yu Qiang had been waiting here for nearly twenty years!
And now, the Pavilion Master's command had appeared once again.
Did this mean a new Pavilion Master had emerged?
As the head of the most powerful Assassin Hall within Tianji Pavilion, although the Old Pavilion Master had been missing for many years and internal strife ensued, the Assassin Hall under Yu Qiang's control remained unchaotic and did not align with any faction.
Yu Qiang's loyalty lay only with the Tianji Pavilion Master!
Before the antique was first brought in, there were no patterns on the box, yet when it was brought in a second time, the mysterious pattern was there... indicating that the pattern had been sealed onto it just moments ago.
The new Pavilion Master might be right outside in the reception hall!
Because this Tianji Pavilion command pattern could only be carved by the Pavilion Master himself and would not be passed on to any non-Pavilion Master.
Creak!
When the door was opened from outside, Secretary Zhang ushered in Su Yixue, Wang Fugui, along with Ye Fan, Yu Qiang quickly stood up and respectfully said, "President Su, my apologies for the negligence earlier!"
As he spoke, Yu Qiang's sharp eyes swept across Su Yixue and the others.
Su Yixue had Martial Arts Qi of an Energy Transformation level and above, and the fluctuations were not strong as though she had just cultivated Martial Arts Qi, clearly not a likely candidate for Tianji Pavilion Master.
And Yu Qiang knew Wang Fugui, the eldest of the Wang Family in Cloud City, whose strength was already above Grandmaster level, a very respectable achievement indeed.
"President Su, no need to thank me! Didn't you already give what you had to give? Like your husband said, the contents of the box aren't important; the box itself is more precious than its contents!" While speaking, Yu Qiang glanced at Ye Fan, "President Su, if the Su Corporation ever needs this old man's help, just say the word!"
"President Su, Young Master Wang, may I have a moment to speak with Young Master Ye alone?" Yu Qiang had mostly confirmed that the Tianji Pavilion Master was Ye Fan, but he needed to verify it once more.
"This..." Su Yixue looked at Ye Fan with some concern, while Wang Fugui was also on guard, "Elder Yu, isn't that inappropriate?"
Wang Fugui knew that Ye Fan was still in a fool's state and was always very attentive to Ye Fan's safety.
Ye Fan knew that Yu Qiang wanted to speak with him in private, and Ye Fan also had some matters to explain to Yu Qiang.
After all, with Tianji Pavilion being such a massive organization, Ye Fan's understanding of it was still very limited. Moreover, to truly control the Tianji Pavilion, relying on Ye Fan alone was clearly insufficient.
In order to seek revenge for the Ye Family, although he had the resources left by his mother, having the Tianji Pavilion on his side would definitely not be a mistake.
"Yixue, it's okay, just wait for me outside... I can protect myself!" While speaking, Ye Fan reached out and gave Su Yixue a gentle tug.
Su Yixue was somewhat puzzled, but she sharply felt that Ye Fan seemed to have improved a lot compared to before, with his memory and intelligence recovering significantly. Perhaps letting Ye Fan interact more with others would be very beneficial to his recovery?
"Then, let's go out, Fugui... Xiao Fan should be fine," Su Yixue called out to Wang Fugui, nodded at Ye Fan, and quickly left the doorway.
Su Yixue didn't know where her confidence came from, but she had great faith in Ye Fan. She believed that Ye Fan could handle everything and would definitely get better.
Just as Su Yixue and Wang Fugui left the front door, Yu Qiang made his move!
Thirteen throwing knives each with intense Qi Force, shot towards Ye Fan from eight tricky angles with incredible speed.
The sound of tearing through the air was so loud it seemed to split the void, emitting a vast wailing noise.
The mighty Qi Force Fluctuation showed that the throwing knives unleashed by Yu Qiang carried martial arts Qi that had reached the level of a Martial Emperor's strength.
And he was using lethal moves from the start!
Ye Fan knew this was both a test and a deadly assault!
If he truly was the Tianji Pavilion Master, then he should be able to easily catch these knives. If he was not and was merely posing as the Pavilion Master, then Yu Qiang would indeed show no mercy and would slay him...
