Tianyuan Town has stood on this land for many years, and this situation is just a little hiccup.
"Here we are! Up ahead is the [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall]."
The Green Demon suddenly stopped and said in a low voice.
He was actually a bit puzzled and sowhat uneasy.
The truth is, for this mission, whether or not to kill the Hall Master of the Hongyang Martial Arts Hall doesn't really matter.
This mission was originally conceived just to verify so matters.
The death of the Hall Master of Hongyang Martial Arts Hall is insignificant in the larger sche, but it concerns so answers that tug at the heartstrings of the Green Demon.
"Brother Qing, have you thought about how to get in?"
"...Wait for soone, then swap skins."
"Brother Qing, why not let try?"
"What are you going to do?" The Green Demon asked curiously.
"Watch ."
Just as Fang Yu was about to walk out, he suddenly stopped.
"Brother Qing, once we enter the [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall] and assassinate the Hall Master, have you thought about how to escape?"
"Just escape directly."
"That's not advisable, it's too dangerous."
Fang Yu added: "And heading straight to the hidden place might expose it to humans."
The Green Demon was silent for a mont and then said: "Then what do you suggest?"
"Once you enter the martial arts hall and start the assassination, I'll create chaos to divert others' attention."
"How will you escape?"
"Brother Qing, with my abilities, once you deal with the Hall Master, there shouldn't be anyone in the [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall] who can catch ; escaping shouldn't be difficult. The fear is if other powerful forces co to pursue us, that would be troubleso. But if we split up and escape, it should create maximum confusion, increasing our chances of escaping safely."
Green Demon: ...
Although the Green Demon's expression didn't change, he unconsciously clenched his fist and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Is that so? Splitting up to escape... is indeed a good choice. Where shall we et up?"
"At the Swiftstride Inn. It's my territory, and although I'm not sure if the demonic minions have been cleared out, the most dangerous place is usually the safest. Even if the Foolish Underworld has swept it, they probably wouldn't expect to return there. So, after we split up and escape, we'll et at the Swiftstride Inn!"
"Alright! We'll et at the Swiftstride Inn!"
Pausing for a mont, as Fang Yu was about to head toward the [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall], the Green Demon suddenly grabbed Fang Yu's wrist.
"Blood Demon, do you know what this is?"
The Green Demon took out an iron token, with a faint aura emanating from it.
This was the second ti Fang Yu had seen this thing; the last ti was just after he and the Green Demon had co out of the hidden place.
Simply put, this is the key to the hidden place, marked with the Demon Leader's seal. If the Demon Leader dies, the key becos useless.
"A permit for entry into the hidden place?" Fang Yu pretended to be hesitant.
"Yes, now I'm giving it to you."
"Brother Qing?!"
Fang Yu suddenly froze.
Things were going too smoothly, causing him to feel that sothing was slightly off.
"Don't be in a rush to refuse. My abilities are stronger than yours, giving a better chance to escape. If you find yourself unable to withstand it during the escape, use this to head straight to the hidden place and return first. Don't worry—without this, even if humans find out where the hidden place is, they can't break into it quickly. I'll return to the entrance of the hidden place three nights from now, and then you can open the door for ."
"Brother Qing..."
Fang Yu took the token from the Green Demon's hand and gripped it tightly.
"Brother Qing, don't worry. I'll definitely return to the Swiftstride Inn, and we'll et there and go back together!"
The Green Demon smiled.
He nodded vigorously.
"Yes, we'll go back together!"
Taking a deep breath, Fang Yu set off in motion.
He strode up to the guard at the [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall] and imdiately showed his Foolish Underworld token.
"Oh! It's Captain from the Foolish Underworld. We were unaware of your visit; what brings you here?"
Fang Yu first gestured in the direction of the Green Demon and then said: "There's been an issue in the Foolish Underworld, and Lord Hall Master sent to discuss important matters with the Hall Master."
The guard at the gate was of little consequence. After a slight hesitation, he signaled one of the n to report inside while allowing Fang Yu and the Green Demon in.
The grounds of the [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall] were more imposing than Fang Yu had anticipated; it was almost like a small estate rather than a simple hall.
This was no small area, considering the land was in the flourishing part of Tianyuan Town.
The price per square ter here was sothing Fang Yu couldn't fathom.
Fang Yu's captain pay in the Foolish Underworld was substantial, but in this area, a month's salary could barely buy a square ter or two.
"Let show you the way."
A guy with six thousand health took on the task of leading the way.
Fang Yu glanced at the guy's health bar.
[Wu Zhengqing: 6101/6101.]
"And this friend is...?"
"Wu Zhengqing. The brothers in the hall honor with the title of eldest senior brother."
Wu Zhengqing walked in front of the two, showing no signs of vulnerability; evidently, he was also on guard against these sudden visitors in so way.
"So Brother Wu is the legendary chief disciple of [Hongyang Martial Arts Hall]."
"Not at all, but... this young brother, your captain, seems unfamiliar to ."
"I was recently appointed. Brother Wu doesn't often go out, or you might have heard of my na."
Wu Zhengqing smiled and said no more.
Tokens don't lie; anyone daring enough to brandish a genuine Foolish Underworld token with deceitful intent would have long perished.
