Chapter 166 - Gao Fei Is Beyond the Transforming Strength Stage

Chapter 166 Gao Fei Is Beyond the Transforming Strength Stage

Xiao Bing and the other two single-handedly destroyed the entire Ghost Nest organization. Although Dumbass was seriously injured, they still managed to eradicate an evil criminal organization.

Dumbass was seriously injured. Although he was almost indestructible, he was seriously injured by that concealing strength. Fortunately, he was stronger than ordinary people, so he woke up in the ward soon after being rescued in the hospital.

At this time, many parts of his body were wrapped in white cloth. There were many wounds on his body. These wounds were caused those people who were beating him up. After all, no one is invincible in this world. Otherwise, wouldn’t the person be unbeatable?

His external injuries were secondary. His internal injuries, which were caused by a master, who was in the concealing strength stage mattered more.

Seeing Dumbass struggling to sit up, Xiao Bing said hurriedly, “Lie down. You are seriously injured. Stay in the hospital to recuperate for the time being. After you discharge, you should thank Gao Fei. If it weren’t for him, you might have died.”

Dumbass grinned and said, “Gao Fei looks thin and delicate. I didn’t know he was so strong.”

Xiao Bing sighed and said, “Even I can’t fathom his capability. Let’s stop talking about this. I didn’t plan well for this attack. You were seriously injured because of my poor planning.”

Dumbass shook his head and said, “I’m fine. Brother Bing is right. You can only gain enlightenment at the brink of death. When I was suppressed by them, I can feel the power in my body burning. Now I feel that the power in my body is stronger than before… I may reach the mid concealing strength stage soon.”

Xiao Bing said smilingly, “It’s a blessing in disguise. Generally speaking, when you reach the refining qi and forging bone stage, you officially start learning martial arts. However, one doesn’t need much talent to reach the refining qi and forging bone stage. Anyone can reach it with enough practice and proper training methods. When you reach the clear strength stage, others will consider you to be a martial arts master. I think this is the starting point, but there aren’t many people learning martial arts now. Currently, there aren’t many people who can reach this starting point.”

Dumbass asked, “How about people who are in the concealing strength stage like me?”

Xiao Bing thought for a moment, and then said smilingly, “The concealing strength stage is a transition. Clear strength stage trains your external strength and external strength stage trains your internal strength. You can only be considered a master after you have honed your internal and external strength.”

Dumbass said delightfully, “I am somewhat a master now.”

Xiao Bing nodded and said, “However, there are many people who are as skilled as you in the past. Take the hundred and eight warriors from Liangshan as an example. Many of them are in the concealing strength stage.”

Dumbass asked, “How about transforming strength stage?”

“You reach the transforming strength stage when you can integrate and combine your internal and external strength perfectly. You have gained a deeper understanding of martial arts. You can interchange your internal and external strength easily. Clear strength relies on external strength and concealing strength relies on internal strength. A master who has reached the transforming strength stage can interchange their internal and external strength at their will and unleash them simultaneously. They temper force with mercy. They are the masters of martial arts.”

Dumbass nodded and said, “Is Brother Bing in the transforming strength stage? A master who is in the transforming strength stage has clear strength and concealing strength flowing in every part of his or her body. The master has reached the stage of martial arts excellence.”

Dumbass appeared expectant. Xiao Bing looked at the expectant Dumbass and his words were on the tip of his tongue. He felt that Dumbass had reached the early concealing strength stage and was about to reach the mid concealing strength stage. “At this moment, he must be looking forward to the transforming strength stage. This is very helpful for his progress in martial arts. I shouldn’t tell him so that he would not lose his drive.”

“For example, there is still a kind of person in the world, who is beyond the transforming strength stage. Ordinary people felt that transforming strength stage was the last stage of martial arts, however, these people had already surpassed it. Upon reaching the stage, you will gain an understanding that transforming strength stage is not the end. However, there are very few people who attain this stage and they are seldom encountered. Gao Fei must be one of them.”

After chatting with Dumbass, Xiao Bing saw that Dumbass’ conditions had stabilized and he was relieved. He went out and instructed the doctor and nurse. He then left the hospital and went to Bi Tingting’s house.

Yezi had already guessed that Xiao Bing was accompanying Bi Tingting for the past two days. She also heard about the assassination. Therefore, she especially let Xiao Bing comfort Bi Tingting for two days. Xiao Bing was not in the rush to return home.

Xiao Bing liked Yezi’s thoughtfulness. However, he was regretful. As Bi Tingting needed Xiao Bing to accompany her now, Xiao Bing would try to treat Yezi better in the future so to make up to her.

Originally, Xiao Bing wanted to capture someone alive and interrogate the person about Bi Tingting’s assassination. However, Xiao Bing didn’t show any mercy when he fought with Hungry. If he showed mercy, he might lose the battle and die. Gao Fei was more ruthless as he killed everyone.

Although Xiao Bing found an account book on Hungry, it recorded those who were assassinated and the commission they received. As it didn’t record the employer’s name, the book was rather useless.

In Bi Tingting’s house, Xiao Bing and Bi Tingting sat in the dining hall. He told her about the destruction of the killer organization. He then said regretfully, “It’s a pity that I didn’t help you find out who the mastermind is.”

Bi Tingting shook her head and said, “It doesn’t matter. I think they acted rashly and alerted the enemy this time. They wouldn’t dare to act rashly again.”

“Well, I am afraid that the enemy is hiding in the dark while you are exposed. Someone will secretly target you in the future. Hey, the entire incident is a mystery. I think I should notify the management and get Dragon Teeth to send some masters to protect you.”

Bi Tingting’s eyes were gentle. She pouted her lips and said, “Actually, I hope that you will be at my side.”

Xiao Bing smiled bitterly and said, “In fact, I wish to do so. Unfortunately, it’s not convenient for me to do so now… as I need to hide my identity. In the small Jiang City, I could still hide for a while. If I’m by your side, I would soon be exposed.”

“Oh, is that so…”

Upon mentioning this, Xiao Bing couldn’t help but feel worried. Before Xiao Bing was forced to sing along with Bi Tingting on the stage, he didn’t know if he would be exposed. However, the people in Dragon Teeth don’t watch concerts usually, so Xiao Bing could still keep the truth from them. Who knew.

After accompanying Bi Tingting for two days, Bi Tingting finally boarded the flight to Xiang Gang. At the airport, apart from her manager and assistant, a middle-aged man who looked tall was walking beside Bi Tingting. The man was a master, who was sent by Dragon Teeth. His nickname was Long-faced Man as he rarely smiled. His real name was Wu Chao. He was in the transforming strength stage. With his protection, Bi Tingting would certainly be safe.

When Bi Tingting was crossing the customs, she reluctantly looked at Xiao Bing, who was in disguise. Xiao Bing smiled, waved his hand and said, “Go back. I will visit you if I have the time.”

“You must come!”

“I will!”

Wu Chao stood up straight and saluted Xiao Bing suddenly. Although he didn’t smile, he appeared reluctant. Xiao Bing was his former captain and they went through thick and thin. Although Xiao Bing left Dragon Teeth because of the fugitives, the old buddies in Dragon Teeth still remembered him.

Xiao Bing returned the salute and said smilingly, “Long-faced, you can find a girlfriend sooner if you smile more.”

Wu Chao smiled. He smiled rather unnaturally. He said embarrassingly, “Captain, rules of the army. I cannot find a girlfriend before I leave the force, lest I get exposed.”

“Haha, I know. OK. Go quickly. Remember to protect Bi Tingting well and take good care of yourself.”

“Yes, Captain!”

Xiao Bing opened his mouth. Although he didn’t get Wu Chao to call him Captain, he became slightly emotional when he recalled the times when they went through thick and thin together. He struggled to calm down. He nodded and said smilingly, “Go.”

After Bi Tingting and others left, Xiao Bing also left the airport. Jiang Wanting called at that time. Xiao Bing could almost guess what Jiang Wanting was going to say. After he picked up the call, Jiang Wanting asked, “Brother Bing, did you kill all of them?”

“Who? Who are you referring to?” Xiao Bing pretended not to know.

Jiang Wanting said, “Stop acting senile with me. The killers from Ghost Nest, of course. The management hadn’t made any decision. I secretly sent people to investigate Ghost Nest. Later, my guys found that all the killers from Ghost Nest were dead.”

“Oh, really. Justice prevails and karma strikes,” Xiao Bing said smilingly, “I guess it’s their retribution.”

“Well… Brother Bing, I know you have a lot of prejudice against the police this time and I hope that you can understand.”

“Understand? I understand you, but I don’t understand your leader.”

Jiang Wanting sighed and asked, “Brother Bing, did the three of you do this? Did the three of you eradicate the evil killer organization?”

Xiao Bing said, “I hope that Officer Jiang can keep secrets. Although we only killed a few evil people who deserved to be shot, it would be troublesome if it involved the police.”

Xiao Bing admitted indirectly. Jiang Wanting gasped and smiled bitterly. She said, “Brother Bing, I feel that I don’t understand you. However, you can rest assured that I will keep this a secret. I will treat that they have internal strife. It just so happened that some of them were on a mission elsewhere and they might not return. We can push the blame to them. Brother Bing, I thank you on behalf of the citizens of Jiang City.”

Xiao Bing said smilingly, “No, you are a good policewoman. I thank you on behalf of the law-abiding citizens of Jiang City. If there isn’t anything, I will hang up first. Let’s talk some other time.”

“OK. I will report this entire matter to my superior. Let’s talk some other time!”

After hanging up the call, Xiao Bing entered his car, sat in the driver’s seat and drove towards Ye Group. He wanted to pick up Ye Xiaoxi from work as they agreed to eat dinner at Su Family later at night. As Mother Su had been discharged for a few days, it was time to visit Aunt Su.
