Ding Hui's finger, which held the power of life and death, first pointed at ng Huoke, and then at the thief.
In other words, the one to be executed was ng Huoke.
The one to spare was the thief.
Based on his trust in Ding Hui, Fang Yu almost without hesitation went straight to ng Huoke.
He raised his hand, ready to strike down.
ng Huoke, whose face was ashen, was dumbfounded on the spot.
Is it who has to die, and not the guy next to ??
From any angle, aren't I a bit more valuable??
With the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the thief looking guilty, and that expression of just escaping death triggered a surge of anger in his heart.
"Wait!"
ng Huoke hurriedly shouted.
Fang Yu's movent paused, looking at Ding Hui as if seeking permission.
But this ti, before Ding Hui spoke, ng Huoke urgently yelled.
"My lord! My lords! I'm more useful than this guy! I'm much more valuable than he is! Please, my lord, give a chance to live!"
Ding Hui lifted her eyelids slightly.
"How can you prove your value?"
Fang Yu could tell just from the blood volu difference between the two that ng Huoke was the one relatively with status among the Rebel Army.
Even if Ding Hui didn't have the sa ability to directly see the health bars, with her insight, she couldn't have misjudged the value difference between the two.
Yet Ding Hui still made the decision to execute the more valuable ng Huoke and leave the less valuable thief alive.
Therefore, even though he had questions in his heart, Fang Yu still followed Ding Hui's words directly.
Now, the effect was showing.
"My lord, my lords, I am a mber of the Rebel Army's Qiu Division, ng Huoke. You two must have co for matters related to the Rebel Army by capturing him. Given his status and value in the Rebel Army, he likely won't provide you satisfactory answers. But I can! I can definitely satisfy any requirent the two of you have!"
The thought of his head no longer being attached, with enough pressure, ng Huoke naturally dared not hold anything back.
For the next second, he might suddenly be struck dead on the ground, and all secrets and identities would beco void.
Living, only by living, do those identities, statuses, and secrets hold value.
If he had known earlier that the ones coming to arrest the thief in the brothel were such high-level masters, he would have never co to the rescue.
But now, it's too late for anything, and now, he must face the issue of self-rescue.
Rebel Army... Qiu Division...
Fang Yu turned back and exchanged a glance with Ding Hui.
Finally, they've managed to get in touch with soone who seed to have a bit of status within the Rebel Army.
Fang Yu pondered for a mont, then asked.
"Why did the Rebel Army send people to monitor ? Do you have any gathering points nearby? What is the scale of the Rebel Army in Thunder City, and have you had any contact with Thunder City's underground grey industries?"
Fang Yu fired off several questions in succession, leaving ng Huoke slightly bewildered.
These questions, each sharper than the last, and so of the questions, if answered in detail, would an even if he did not die today, returning to the Rebel Army would also result in a certain death.
In an instant, ng Huoke was plunged into a dilemma, whether to be beaten to death now or reveal Rebel Army's information and later be settled by the Rebel Army.
As cold sweat poured down ng Huoke's forehead, contemplating how to reveal information without being settled by the Rebel Army—
Suddenly, the insects nurturing within him all reacted at once, curling together in fear.
In that instant, ng Huoke's eyes widened in shock.
The reaction of these bugs, this reaction is?!
"Ding Hui!"
Fang Yu's sudden shout made the unprepared Ding Hui feel her body lighten, being tightly embraced by Fang Yu around the waist, their bodies almost pressed together.
What's happening?
Ding Hui was a bit baffled.
Taking the initiative in such intimate acts wasn't like Diao Deyi's style.
Just as Ding Hui was feeling confused, she saw ahead, beyond the broken doorway, a woman stepping lightly from downstairs, moving step by step... into the air!
One step!
Two steps!
Three steps!
The elegant steps seed to walk on air, moving toward their position step by step.
Even facing the slightly nervous Fang Yu and the others, she kept an ever-smiling expression, watching them.
"Qiu, Qiu Qiu, Captain Qiu!"
In this brief mont, ng Huoke, with a trembling voice, identified the newcor.
The woman continued smiling, her gaze entirely resting on Fang Yu.
"This must be Young Master Diao, whose valor in fighting the Foolish Underworld I've just heard about. It's our Rebel Army's delayed news that led to neglect. I intended to circumvent the Foolish Underworld's surveillance tonight to et Young Master Diao privately, but it seems things have gone awry."
Pausing for a mont, her gaze then shifted to the woman Fang Yu was holding.
"This must be Mrs. Diao, Ding Hui, Divine Doctor Ding. It's unfortunate that Xiao Ping entered the scene late, unable to associate with Divine Doctor Ding sooner. Otherwise, perhaps we might have beco good sisters."
As the woman spoke, her feet finally stepped firmly onto the jumbled wooden floor of the second level.
Qi Force.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Stepping through the air wasn't truly walking but placing her feet on the condensed blocks of Qi Force, making it appear as if walking on flat ground.
It looks sowhat impressive at a glance, but in reality, Fang Yu didn't sense anything noteworthy from this move aside from walking in the air.
Although Fang Yu couldn't levitate, his speed when moving quickly was practically no different from flying, and he had tried Bone Armor Wings before, although the effect wasn't ideal.
