Wait!
Fang Yu’s mind suddenly ca up with a cunning sche.
It seems... I know where three Great Demons are.
No!
Those are the Demon Guards arranged for by the Green Demon, who I can command at will with just a secret phrase. Isn’t it too wasteful to just kill them?
But... what’s the use of Demon Guards when compared to actual attribute points?
Once I beco stronger, will I still need Demon Guards?
As Fang Yu was contemplating the feasibility of this idea, suddenly...
Bang!
Soone bumped into him from behind, causing him to stagger forward a couple of steps.
Looking up, he saw that the person who had bumped into him from behind and was now looking back at him with a cold sneer was...
None other than Kun Shanhai.
At his side was Hu Shusheng, who had just hurried over from the entrance.
"Isn’t that Diao Deyi? What’s the matter, couldn’t save Lord Li Baizhen and now returning in defeat all by yourself?" Kun Shanhai said mockingly.
Fang Yu frowned slightly and glanced at Hu Shusheng, who subtly shook his head at him.
After thinking it over, Fang Yu’s brow relaxed and he spoke calmly.
"Officer Kun, mind your tone."
He slightly shifted to the side, revealing the Token from the Yangshen Hall at his waist. Kun Shanhai’s face changed instantly, and bowing his head while suppressing his emotions, he clenched his teeth and said.
"Mr. Diao! I was disrespectful just now, please forgive ."
"Seeing as it’s your first offense, I’ll let it slide this ti. Be mindful of your etiquette in the future."
Fang Yu glanced at him sideways, then strode forward but was stopped by Kun Shanhai blocking his path.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes: "What, trying to defy your superiors?"
"Not at all! I just wanted to inquire about one matter."
Kun Shanhai stared intently at Fang Yu: "Why hasn’t Li Baizhen been stripped of his position as a Centenarian? He has been captured by the Li Family and there’s no chance he will co back alive! What we need now is a more capable person to step up and lead the team mbers under Li Baizhen, to stabilize the troops!"
Fang Yu continued for him.
"And that successor should be you?"
Kun Shanhai’s brows rose as he puffed out his chest: "Naturally! You should also be aware that I am more capable than Li Baizhen and rightfully deserve the position of Centenarian! Could it be that you are manipulating things behind the scenes, causing the higher-ups not to reassign the position imdiately?"
Indeed, Fang Yu had discussed this matter with Zhuo Xueer.
He had already saved Li Baizhen, so naturally, the position had to be reserved for him.
This Kun Shanhai is so obsessed with climbing the ranks, isn’t his Spirit off?
Shaking his head slightly, Fang Yu said: "Regarding Lord Li Baizhen’s temporary absence, the higher-ups have their arrangents. You need not worry, just wait for notification."
"What an act! You just got promoted to the Yangshen Hall and you’re already starting this, huh! Without Li Baizhen, what are you worth? He must have been blind, squandering years of rits on a thankless wretch like you! It would have been better to promote instead of sending you up. If I had such accomplishnts, I would have long been promoted to Centenarian myself!"
Suddenly, Kun Shanhai shouted excitedly, startling Fang Yu.
This guy...
Fang Yu felt annoyed and, sensing his emotion, Hu Shusheng, standing to the side and with his back to Kun Shanhai, made an undetectable throat-slitting gesture.
Fang Yu was taken aback.
That’s not necessary, it’s just not getting along, a man possessed by demons.
Besides, I’ve already been promoted to the Yangshen Hall. I probably won’t see him much anymore; there’s no need to go out of my way to get rid of him.
Fang Yu slightly shook his head imperceptibly, just about to say sothing...
"Mr. Diao!"
Suddenly, an excited voice ca from behind.
It was Che Linfang.
Che Linfang was more enthusiastic than Fang Yu had thought, congratulating him on his promotion while also expressing her happiness that he had returned alive from the Li Family.
Che Linfang seed unaware that the Li Family was nearly infiltrated by their demons like a sieve.
She still thought Fang Yu had miraculously co back through great difficulties.
Following Che Linfang ca a group sowhat familiar faces, all subordinates under Li Baizhen, who seed to have arrived with Che Linfang.
It was just that Che Linfang was the first to rush over to talk.
"Mr. Diao!"
"Mr. Diao!"
"Mr. Diao."
These elite, seasoned subordinates of Li Baizhen, now leaderless and anxious,
felt reassured upon seeing Fang Yu, as if seeing a savior, and were sowhat comforted.
Although Diao Deyi had been promoted, he was now an important figure in the Yangshen Hall.
But they didn’t consider how Diao Deyi had gotten the promotion.
It was Li Baizhen who had pushed him up with all his rits; this favor, this connection, was enough to last Diao Deyi a lifeti.
No matter where he went, people knew that Diao Deyi was associated with the Li Baizhen faction.
And these people would naturally rise in status because of Fang Yu’s promotion as well, gaining so influence.
In the future, if soone dared to suppress them, they’d have to think twice because there was a Divine Hall bigwig covering for them.
So although Li Baizhen was taken away, and they were saddened, Fang Yu’s return also allowed them to feel at ease.
At least their faction wasn’t going to be swallowed up, ostracized, or suppressed; they still had a pillar.
Unconsciously, as if Fang Yu had smoothly succeeded, he had inherited Li Baizhen’s subordinates and gained a base of his own.
[Mi Hengpeng: 100/100.]
[Zeng Xiancheng: 85/85.]
[Zhu Lingqiang: 89/89.]
[...]
Fang Yu’s gaze swept over the group, quietly noting so nas.
Though their abilities might be mixed, their loyalty shouldn’t be an issue.
As he was thinking, Fang Yu suddenly noticed sothing.
"Where’s Tang Shan?"
Indeed, how could the demon male group be missing the strongest, Tang Shan?
"He..."
Soone who knew the situation hesitated to speak.
The rest also looked at each other, perplexed.
