Watching Ding Hui's seemingly unperturbed face, it was hard to imagine that she had just said so much in his mind.
Perhaps her peculiar ability for mind conversation was well-suited for soone with a poker face?
"Rest assured, I won't be in any trouble."
Murmuring softly, Fang Yu then went to et Diao Ruru.
"Sister, there's a mission for the Foolish Underworld tonight, we're about to set off. You and Ding Hui go ahead with dinner, don't wait for ."
Having said that, Fang Yu prepared to leave.
Judging by the ti, it was about to start.
He would first gather at the Foolish Underworld, wait for instructions, to avoid missing any information.
Seeing Fang Yu leave, Ding Hui hurriedly followed.
"Wait! Let's go together, I need to return to the Foolish Underworld as well."
Fang Yu naturally had no objections.
Just right, he wanted to ask Ding Hui what kind of strange martial arts she had taught Ru Ru, and he also wanted to discuss Qi Force techniques with her.
The two of them left side by side, leaving Diao Ruru alone.
Watching their backs, Diao Ruru drifted into a daze until the servant brought the hot al, pulling her back to reality.
"So... Doctor Ding, your brief return is just to see Diao Deyi?"
Diao Ruru tilted her head pondering, then picked up the food she personally prepared, reheated again, and slowly chewed.
Eating alone does indeed feel a bit lonely...
...
On the road, Fang Yu and Ding Hui walked shoulder to shoulder.
Frequent passersby hurried past, only glancing briefly at the two of them, obviously preoccupied with their own rush.
At that mont, Ding Hui suddenly leaned in closer, her fragrance enveloping him.
In the next instant, a voice echoed in his mind.
"Tonight's operation is dangerous. Apart from the two dicine Pills I've provided you for the last resort, there's one more thing I want you to know."
With a puzzled expression, Fang Yu looked at her as the voice continued in his mind.
"That's the Foolish Underworld's special standards for mission execution. Sotis, the operative on a mission can be sacrificed at any mont. That ans the Reserve Deputy Captain above might assign you so sort of bait mission, where sacrificing you wouldn't be hesitated."
This already counted as one of the Foolish Underworld's deeper secrets, one of their unwritten rules.
Before advancing to Demon Foot, Fang Yu didn't fully understand this set of rules. However, after going through the battle with the Thousand Households, he began to grasp the essence.
He didn't expect Ding Hui to suddenly bring this up.
Fang Yu lowered his voice and said,
"Don't worry, the higher-ups should still need , and Zhuo Xueer doesn't seem like that kind of person either."
Ding Hui suddenly stopped and looked at Fang Yu with a cold laugh, her voice ringing in his mind.
"Do you still not understand that you can't judge a book by its cover? Whatever Zhuo Xueer is like, I will not comnt, but the top brass needing you is only for now; the next second they might not. I've seen it already, those Hall Masters are not friendly towards you, and now there is a good opportunity to get rid of you. Do you think they'll pass up on this chance?"
"Don't idolize those Hall Masters too much. They're just people! People who have just walked further down the path of martial arts than the rest of us."
Fang Yu knew what Ding Hui ant and responded with a smile, lowering his voice,
"Don't worry, I have my own asure."
But Fang Yu had indeed previously overlooked this possibility.
If Wu Lvzhu were here, with her defense, he would naturally be safe, but now with Wu Lvzhu unconscious, what the other Hall Masters would think or do was up for speculation.
However, those Hall Masters, each with health points as high as eight thousand, if they really wanted to take action against him, just a lift of their hand was enough, not needing to resort to such roundabout tactics.
Hearing Fang Yu's words, Ding Hui rolled her eyes and proceeded to walk forward.
"You say you have your own asure. If I hadn't reminded you, you wouldn't even know if you were sold out. I'm not interested in power struggles, but one thing I will teach you. If you really get sold out, go kill the team's Reserve Deputy Captain first, then co to . I'll handle the rest."
Ding Hui spoke casually, yet Fang Yu felt a chill run down his spine.
But at the sa ti, he was puzzled.
"Why do I have to kill the team's leader Zhuo Xueer before coming to you?"
Ding Hui glanced at him sideways.
"This is called 'dead n tell no tales', it can buy ti to help you escape. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving Tianyuan Town alive."
The more she spoke, the more preposterous it sounded...
Fang Yu felt that Ding Hui was overthinking things.
For tonight's mission, he was just a sideline cheerleader, it wasn't his stage at all, no need to overthink.
As he thought about it, suddenly, Fang Yu realized sothing.
"You don't need to be involved in tonight's operation?"
"Of course."
Ding Hui looked at him, puzzled.
"What use would I be there with my strength? Moreover, I still have unfinished business with Wu Lvzhu's condition, I don't have the energy to worry about anything else."
Right, Ding Hui's strength was not exactly fit for a field dic.
"By the way, I saw Ru Ru practicing, with grotesque postures. That Spiritual Snake Technique you taught her, is it reliable? Maybe switch to a less intense Cultivation Technique for her to practice?"
Upon hearing this, Ding Hui's steps briefly faltered.
As Fang Yu was wondering about her reaction, there ca a voice from up ahead.
"Lord Ding Hui, I've finally found you! You suddenly had to go back, and we were all in a state of panic, barely managing Wu Hall Master's condition! Hurry! Co with , Wu Hall Master has gone berserk again!"
It was one of the Divine Doctors, a Bone Doctor.
Seeing his urgent appearance, it seed he had run all the way from Jingyun Building, he was panting heavily.
