And at that mont, footsteps could be heard from behind.
Everyone turned around in unison, only to see Han ngyu leading a group of people walking towards them, with Tang Shan distinctly following beside her, almost as if he was her right-hand man.
Fang Yu’s eyes narrowed as he glanced covertly at Che Linfang beside him.
While the attention of the others was captivated by Han ngyu and her entourage, Che Linfang quietly grasped Fang Yu’s hand, rapidly tapping a few tis on his palm.
Go undercover to Han ngyu’s side?
Makes sense, with Li Baizhen kneeling, this side is essentially half-ruined, and the limited information that a bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled can gather is naturally limited.
But now that I, the big target, am here, according to the demons’ understanding, you little demons don’t have to do much, your intelligence can’t be as useful as mine.
Of course, whether to transmit intelligence or not depends on whether I feel like it.
"Mr. Diao."
Han ngyu perford a greeting, then calmly looked at Fang Yu.
"Lord Li Baizhen... Is he still alive?"
Huh? You’re concerned about Li Baizhen? I thought you were sworn enemies.
Fang Yu didn’t give it much thought, just nodded slightly.
"Lord Li Baizhen will co back, I’ll find a way to save him!"
"Yes... Yes!"
Han ngyu nodded vigorously, then glanced at the crowd surrounding Fang Yu and frowned slightly.
"Let’s go."
She led her people away, casting a sidelong glance at Kun Shanhai as she passed by him.
Whatever was communicated between them, Kun Shanhai’s face imdiately turned red with restraint, as if he had endured so humiliation, clenching his fists and grinding his teeth in silence.
After Han ngyu and her group had left, Kun Shanhai stared at Fang Yu bitterly before leaving with Hu Shusheng.
Once these two groups had left, the enthusiasm of the people around Fang Yu returned as if they were declaring their allegiance, each expressing their firm support for Fang Yu.
After casually sending these people away, Fang Yu prepared to leave, insisting that Che Linfang see him out.
Fang Yu and Che Linfang left, and those left behind started whispering among themselves.
"It seems that Mr. Diao and Che Linfang..."
"That’s not right, I heard that Mr. Diao and Lord Ding Hui of Research Demon Mansion..."
"Shush! Don’t pry into these matters. Now that Mr. Diao belongs to Yangshen Hall, we can’t afford to gossip recklessly."
Hearing this, everyone imdiately quieted down and stopped discussing the topic.
Yangshen Hall, reigning above the Three Mansions, speaking out of turn like this could really lead to trouble.
Furthermore, those matters of n and won, let alone the lords in Yangshen Hall, even any random rchant outside has multiple wives and concubines; who could say anything.
"Right, who’s going to tell the ’sister-in-law’ about Lord Li Baizhen..."
Upon hearing this, the group grew even more silent.
The atmosphere beca heavy again.
Elsewhere.
Fang Yu and Che Linfang walked shoulder to shoulder, and when there were few people on the street, he lowered his voice.
"Did Tang Shan take his own initiative to act? What’s going on between Kun Shanhai and Han ngyu? Didn’t they reach an agreent? Why hasn’t he joined Han ngyu’s side?"
"Tang Shan indeed acted on his own accord. Without Green Demon, each of our decisions relies solely on our own judgnt. However..."
Che Linfang glanced at Fang Yu: "Just received word from above, you’re now our new leader. From now on, we all have to listen to you."
"As for Kun Shanhai, according to Hu Shusheng, after you and Li Baizhen were taken away, Kun Shanhai was very eager to replace Li Baizhen’s position. The consideration was put on hold until after you returned and his request was officially rejected."
"After you ca back alive, he went to seek Han ngyu, wanting to join her only to be rejected again."
"Now, he’s a forsaken dog, without anyone to help him from either side."
Fang Yu was puzzled.
"Then why keep Hu Shusheng following Kun Shanhai?"
"Just in case, this mad dog might still be useful. If one day we need to stir chaos or perhaps test soone, this guy would be the perfect dog for the job."
Fang Yu didn’t expect Che Linfang to think so far ahead.
Alright then, since a figure like Kun Shanhai is hardly a threat to him any longer.
Fang Yu inquired about Che Linfang’s subordinates and their deploynt.
He quickly had a rough understanding of the situation.
There weren’t many demons left in the Foolish Underworld, but there were still so lurking in Pan Sheng Mansion, albeit with far weaker foundations than here, the kind that could be ousted at any mont.
Research Demon Mansion was the most difficult to infiltrate, typically done in an indirect manner, by becoming prisoners taken by Research Demon Mansion, to provide so intelligence.
The main jurisdiction of Green Demon, who had passed away, was indeed the Foolish Underworld.
The nearby Pan Sheng Mansion and others were just under cursory control.
The remaining forces were all outside.
However, the demons ready to respond outside were all rather wild, willing to follow the Green Demon rather than the infiltrators from the Foolish Underworld side.
So when they learned of Green Demon’s death, those outside tasked with support had largely dispersed, joining other demons.
The remaining ones included three rather formidable demons, but they were essentially nonchalant.
They could handle tasks, but it’s hard to say how well.
To put it simply, they were seasoned operators who survived on seniority and reluctantly stayed because they didn’t want to easily switch sides.
As for the less formidable demons, they were quite nurous and more easily commanded, most being around the level of Bie Huzi.
With a general understanding of the situation, Fang Yu let Che Linfang leave.
He needed to think about what to do next.
With so many experience points, where to start.
How to secretly kill demons while relying on the Prison’s blind boxes, initiating work on both fronts, stirring things up to earn a huge profit.
