Fang Yu heard this, and was not annoyed but rely smiled: "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. To better blend in with humans, one must act like them, right?"
"I can't compare to you in this aspect... I've been here for so long yet I can't get used to the deceitful ways of humans."
Che Linfang sighed. Otherwise, why would Diao Deyi rise to power instead of herself who had been undercover for years? Indeed, there was a reason.
At this ti, Fang Yu casually picked up the files on [Jin Yexue] and [Hui Hui].
Hui Hui, the chubby gardener, originally from a brothel, matched perfectly with the information provided by Mi Hengpeng, with no issues whatsoever.
But that [Jin Yexue] who had already left...
Fang Yu frowned.
This woman's file felt odd, as if she was... a player??
Unlike the information given by Mi Hengpeng, the data provided by the demons under Che Linfang started investigating from the mont [Jin Yexue] entered Tianyuan Town, taking it from the source hence more comprehensive.
The several contradictory behaviors and odd actions were all rembered by onlookers, which allowed the demons to find and record them in the files.
A player, huh... Never mind, the person has been driven away, no need to care about that now.
Fang Yu had seen [Jin Yexue]'s health bar; a player with just over a dozen health points posed no threat to him.
"Could you send for Zhang Ziheng? I need to give him a little warning."
Zhang Ziheng had only recently beco an informant for Mi Hengpeng. By giving him a little shaking, it should be easy to turn him around.
Then I can probe the true depths of Mi Hengpeng; if there's no powerful backing there, I'll dispose of him directly.
A little brother daring to plant an informant on his side, Fang Yu certainly had no trust to speak of.
"Okay."
Che Linfang accepted the order with a smile and departed.
She had long been irritated by Mi Hengpeng, who seed to want to compete with her in everything. As fellow demons, it was obvious whose side Diao Deyi was on.
Soon, Che Linfang brought the person over.
She closed the door and left the room, turning to depart.
After a busy day, although she ssed up, she was indeed tired and needed to go back to rest.
Leaving Diao Residence and returning to her lodging, she did not expect soone had been waiting for a long ti and threw themselves into her arms.
"Sister Fangfang!"
"Zhang Xiaoli? Why are you here?"
Che Linfang showed confusion but imdiately noticed another person in the shadows of the room, slowly walking out from the darkness to reveal themselves.
"Who?!"
Che Linfang was shocked and quickly protected Zhang Xiaoli behind her.
The person stopped, smiling, and made a bowing gesture.
"Lord Che, nice to et you for the first ti. I am the Blood Mushroom Demon, coming forth to offer my service. Unable to find an approach, I asked for Miss Zhang's help."
Zhang Xiaoli tugged Che Linfang's sleeve from behind.
As Che Linfang turned to look at her inquisitively, Zhang Xiaoli finally spoke up: "This new guy is really powerful; he said he has a big brother, even more powerful!"
Che Linfang slightly raised her eyebrows.
As Diao Deyi's fa grew, the number of demons wanting to join their ranks increased.
Thus, Che Linfang started a selection process, only taking in exceptionally strong or trustworthy demons.
This Blood Mushroom Demon? She had never heard of him before, and his appearance as an old mansion steward in human skin, it was hard to judge his true strength.
"I've never heard of you before; are you that powerful?"
The Blood Mushroom Demon simply smiled and extended his hand. One could see tiny mushrooms growing profusely from his arm like bamboo shoots after a rain.
Just looking from a distance, Che Linfang could feel the pressure.
Those brightly colored mushrooms seed to contain a terrible poison, the re sight instinctively made one step back to avoid them.
"Just a handful of these poison mushrooms can kill a high-level Grass Realm Martial Artist within a mont if there is no antidote."
Che Linfang's mouth twitched slightly.
Well, that's obvious, nobody could withstand eating that many toxic mushrooms.
And with your flamboyant colors, no one would eat your stuff.
But in terms of power, it indeed sufficed.
After all, she, Che Linfang, had no ans to subdue a high-level Grass Realm Martial Artist.
It seed like the desired effect was achieved, the Blood Mushroom Demon retracted the mushrooms back into his arm and smiled, saying, "My big brother, other brothers, and I are from Jianjia Village. Hearing about the turbulent tis in Tianyuan Town, we too want to carve out a career. I've inquired and among the nearby demons, Lord Blood Demon is the strongest, so I ca directly to join."
Of course!
Che Linfang puffed out her chest slightly.
Diao Deyi's reputation had spread, and she played a part in it.
"You do have a good eye. With such strength, you could directly join my ranks..."
"Lord Che, I wonder if I could et Lord Blood Demon personally. I heard about his extraordinary strength, without seeing for myself, I am a bit..."
"Impudent! Is Lord Blood Demon soone you can see as you wish?"
This ti it was not Che Linfang who spoke, but Zhang Xiaoli.
Che Linfang was slightly surprised.
She hadn't realized that under her influence, the people around her had subtly changed their attitudes toward Fang Yu.
And Zhang Xiaoli wasn't wrong.
Diao Deyi was truly not soone just anyone could et.
These foreign demons, with unclear purposes and origins, difficult to trace, she would not recomnd them to Diao Deyi without her own screening.
"If you want to et Lord Blood Demon, you'll have to follow and achieve so feats first. Strength alone is not enough to impress or let be your reference."
