That was!
Although it was leveled up with so extra points, there have been plenty of real fights, so managing the force of the blows wasn’t a problem.
Just as he was thinking, Ding Hui waved him over.
"Co to your room."
"..."
Ding Hui entered, and Fang Yu followed.
As soon as the door closed, she turned around and looked straight at Fang Yu.
"Is Yuan Hongxin dead?"
"...Dead."
Ding Hui showed a complicated expression, she seed to want to say sothing, but paused as soon as she opened her mouth.
After all, what’s done is done, complaining now is useless.
"Did you clean up after yourself? Did anyone see you? Take to the scene, I’ll try to erase your traces, then find so people to provide alibis..."
Ding Hui’s voice faltered and she frowned as she looked at Fang Yu.
"Be serious, this is no joke. Yuan Hongxin is the head of a martial arts school, with a high status. You killing him rashly will have people investigating you, at the very least you’ll be suspended, at worst, it could cost you your life. The waters here run deep, you’ve joined the Foolish Underworld recently and you don’t realize the severity of this matter."
Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.
"So what about when he almost killed you, and took away elder sister, wasn’t he guilty first? Wasn’t there a problem with him?"
"That’s why I told you to report it to the authorities and deal with him legitimately, or wait for soone I call to handle it from a third party."
Ding Hui sighed: "The martial arts school Yuan Hongxin heads is a mid-level one in Tianyuan Town, and there are only about thirty schools at this level. You can target him, but only if you do it covertly, or use the most upfront and legal thods. Approaching him openly and killing him as you did, protecting you will be difficult."
"He nearly killed you and kidnapped elder sister, and you expect to wait for the Foolish Underworld to act slowly?"
Fang Yu added: "Besides, the fact that Yuan Hongxin tried to kill you hasn’t disappeared. His cri still stands. At worst, it could be said that I accidentally killed him while bringing him to justice. If there’s a criminal, it’s him. What cri have I committed?"
Ding Hui shook her head: "That may be logical, but human hearts are complex, and your procedures were irregular, giving others the opportunity to attack you, even if I can corroborate your story, they’ve still got ans to pin you down."
Fang Yu was puzzled.
"I haven’t offended anyone, who would target for no reason? Are you overthinking it?"
"You haven’t offended anyone, but people behind you might have. You belong to Zhuo Xueer, haven’t you forgotten? Whoever wants Zhuo Xueer to beco the official Deputy Captain will deal with you."
Fang Yu felt dizzy with confusion.
Why so complicated.
Yuan Hongxin killed people; I killed Yuan Hongxin, it’s that simple.
I’m an officer from Yangshen Hall, officially recognized, who dares to defy?
How co when I was with the Foolish Underworld, I could kill whoever I wanted.
Now being with Yangshen Hall, even killing soone like Yuan Hongxin becos so troubleso.
I earned enough rits, just deduct so!
"It’s not about the rits."
Ding Hui seed to read Fang Yu’s thoughts, shaking her head: "It’s about who the target is."
"At Yuan Hongxin’s level, even if you suspect he’s a demon, you can’t just kill him. You must report it and investigate before taking action."
"Otherwise, what if you think all the people from the Five Great Families are demons? Go and chop down everyone from the Five Great Families, then say afterwards, just deduct so rits, do you think we’re in the Foolish Underworld? Not even an emperor would be so arrogant."
...So, the privileges of the Foolish Underworld still differ.
When dealing with soone like Yuan Hongxin, it stops working??
"So Yuan Hongxin can kill if he wants, but I can’t?"
"Why are you so stubborn? I said, he did sothing, we report it, and he won’t get away with it. As long as Yuan Hongxin doesn’t have anyone backing him up, soone will support us. Even if he does have backup, he will still have to pay the corresponding price."
Fang Yu frowned: "By the ti we report and wait for the investigation, elder sister might be dead."
"That’s why I need to contact others, get them here from outside, and if it goes smoothly, they could arrive before dawn today. At this ti, we can quietly deal with Yuan Hongxin, not having to go through the Foolish Underworld’s procedures. The problem now is you took matters into your own hands, got your hands dirty, and if soone wants to ss with you, they really could ruin you."
Fang Yu fell silent.
He understood Ding Hui’s point.
Either play dirty, or go by the book.
He directly went and killed, also playing dirty; it’s just Ding Hui thought he did it brazenly, in full view of everyone.
Even if indeed it was in front of everyone, the ones watching him kill were all demons...
Seeing Ding Hui, looking frustrated over this issue, Fang Yu suddenly cald down.
It feels good to be cared for.
He teased.
"Aren’t you afraid of getting dragged down with ? From what you said, it sounds like quite a ss."
Starting to bite her nails, pacing back and forth, Ding Hui turned and glared at him.
"What do you take for? I avenge you, and then I sell you out? Is that how low you see , Ding Hui..."
"I was wrong, I was wrong! Stop, it was just a joke."
Seeing Ding Hui getting more emotional, Fang Yu hurriedly raised his hands in surrender, then said,
"Actually, you don’t have to worry so much. Yuan Hongxin wasn’t killed by ."
Thud!
Ding Hui abruptly stopped.
"What! Did! You! Say!"
She fiercely moved closer to Fang Yu, grabbing his collar, fury almost leaping from her eyes.
"Are you mocking ? Yuan Hongxin wasn’t killed by you??? Then what about saying Yuan Hongxin is dead!"
