Xu Zhaopei usually has a fiery temperant, so it’s no surprise she has this kind of attitude.
But I didn’t expect her to co to Yanjing and not only has she not held back, but she’s also gotten into a fight. She’s getting bolder and bolder.
After thinking for a bit, Fang Yu went back to the guest room, took out a Black Wood Lotus, placed it on Ye Wenjun’s desk, and left a note, instructing her to consu it and cultivate more.
Just as he was about to go downstairs, Chen Daotian ca out.
"Bro Yu."
Fang Yu turned around, couldn’t help but ask curiously, "Why aren’t you sleeping?"
"The headquarters has sent a task." Chen Daotian yawned.
Hearing this, Fang Yu’s heart skipped a beat. It’s really not peaceful at all – even after settling the Lu Family’s affairs, Xu Zhaopei’s matter surfaced. Just as I was considering whether to involve myself, more issues from the Dark Web headquarters arose.
"What task?" Fang Yu asked.
"Two SS-level tasks." Chen Daotian handed over his phone.
"SS-level tasks?"
Fang Yu frowned slightly.
If it were before, he would consider taking on the tasks, but now, he hesitated.
If Mo Chengkong is from the Dark Web, with his Innate strength, he should hold considerable power.
Could it be...
Is he one of the three giants?
This suspicion is not without reason.
Fang Yu picked up the phone and looked at the detailed task information:
"Task One:
Level: SS.
Target: Kill Japan’s Holy Hand Yama no Ichiro."
"Task Two:
Level: SS.
Target: Kill Japan’s upper-class ninja Hattori Matsuko."
Seeing these two tasks, Fang Yu was stunned for a mont, then said, "This ti the targets are two Japanese."
"Bro Yu, should we take it? The headquarters has specifically nad both of us on the internal forum," Chen Daotian asked.
"They nad us?"
If that’s the case, this might be a trap set by soone from the Dark Web.
A trap, so should I jump in?
Fang Yu looked up at Chen Daotian and said, "Daotian, if you could only choose to trust either the Dark Web headquarters or , who would you choose?"
This was a question that they had to face sooner or later.
Both of them joined the Dark Web together and were honest with each other, the best of brothers.
Similarly, Chen Daotian was soone who served the Dark Web loyally.
He must make a choice.
Chen Daotian was startled for a mont, then laughed, "Bro Yu, of course I choose you."
"I’m asking seriously, and I hope you answer seriously," Fang Yu said.
Chen Daotian’s smile faded as he replied, "In this world, if I can’t even trust Bro Yu, I really don’t know whom else to trust. My clan, my sister, my parents, everything I had... was lost to lies. Tell , who should I trust?"
Fang Yu patted him on the shoulder.
Without saying much more, he then said, "Alright, I suspect that the Dark Web may not be the sa as it was before."
"Huh?"
"Mo Chengkong is probably not one of the three giants, which ans, the strength of the three giants is much greater than we ever imagined," Fang Yu said slowly.
He also ntioned the threats from the headquarters that he encountered so ti ago.
Chen Daotian listened in shock, his face filled with anger.
"This task could be a trap," Fang Yu said.
"Damn it, and here I was slaving away for the Dark Web!" Chen Daotian was furious, grinding his teeth.
"It’s not too late to find out now, after all, we’ve also used the Dark Web for many things. Right now, we need to figure out who’s pulling the strings behind the scenes!"
"Yeah. Let’s not take on these two tasks," Chen Daotian said.
Fang Yu smiled and said, "Who said we’re not taking them?"
"Bro Yu..."
"As I’ve always said—I just love it when the weak co seeking death." A hint of murderous intent shone through Fang Yu’s eyes.
"Alright! I’ll follow Bro Yu, we’ll rain havoc on our enemies!"
Chen Daotian was filled with a fighting spirit, "These two targets, they’ll appear at the Yanjing dical Forum. The person who posted the task from the headquarters said that these two Japanese have been up to so shady activities in secret, and we need to clean up."
dical forum?
Fang Yu was taken aback; things really couldn’t be such a coincidence...
"Daotian, this task, I have even more reason to take it. Today, let’s head over to the city center," Fang Yu smiled.
"Alright!"
...
An undisclosed location.
Inside a certain room.
With a "pfft" sound, Mo Chengkong spits out a mouthful of fresh blood onto the ground, kneels on one knee, and says, "Leader, the mission has failed, your subordinate... your subordinate is incompetent!"
Ahead, a man wearing a mask stands with his hands behind his back, his back to him.
He doesn’t even look.
The masked man’s voice is hoarse as he asks, "What is the reason for the failure?"
"The Ninth Layer Hall of the Lu Family does indeed have a mysterious strong character..."
"Mysterious strong character?" The masked man’s voice deepens.
Mo Chengkong coughs, his face deathly pale as he says, "With my Innate level of strength, I couldn’t withstand even one of her moves. I suspect that her strength is at least that of a Middle Class Cultivator at the Earth Rank."
"An Earth Rank Cultivator... no wonder... no wonder the Lu Family has remained steadfast for so long without decline," the masked man says.
"Your subordinate has done his best, please punish , Leader!"
The masked man nods and says, "This is not your fault, step back and rest well."
"Thank you, Leader!"
Mo Chengkong drags his body and turns to leave.
At this mont, a man enters from outside the door and says, "Leader, the two SS-level tasks that were just released have been taken."
"Do we know who took them?" asks the masked man.
"Fang Yu, the Hall Master from the Jiangzhou branch, and Chen Daotian, the Hall Master from the Yanjing branch."
Upon hearing this, the masked man turns around.
A deep voice resonates, "Alive?"
If what Mo Chengkong said is true, and the Lu Family indeed has a mysterious expert, then Fang Yu’s mission should have failed. Under such a powerhouse, there is even less reason for him to be alive...
Yet now, Fang Yu and Chen Daotian have together taken on an SS-level mission.
"Are you certain it was them who took it?" the masked man asks.
"It has been confird, both of them have submitted their Hall Master Orders."
Silence fills the room.
After a mont’s thought, the masked man says gravely, "Grind Mo Chengkong into minced at and scatter it in my swimming pool..."
"Yes!"
...
...
Ye Family villa.
Ever since Ye Wenjun beca fascinated with Martial Arts, she only works half a day.
Finished with the morning’s work, she hurries back in the afternoon.
As soon as she enters the hall, the maid says, "Miss, your future husband and that country bumpkin who sells mushrooms have gone out."
Hearing the maid describe Chen Daotian this way, Ye Wenjun almost couldn’t help but laugh.
"Understood."
"Miss, your future husband went into your room and stood there grinning foolishly at a portrait for quite a while," the maid continues.
Ye Wenjun is startled.
Her pretty face turns red.
"Miss, he also left a couplet on a piece of paper. I can’t read, so I didn’t understand it. You better look at it, maybe your future husband wants to invite you to sothing."
"Understood."
Ye Wenjun quickly goes upstairs.
Arriving in her room,
She sees the Black Wood Lotus and note on the table, her brows slightly furrowed.
"What’s this?"
Written on the note: Wife, this is a great tonic, eating it can increase Cultivation. Your body is too weak right now, afraid it can’t withstand my trials. If you eat these things, three to five will solve the... problems – Your husband, Fang Yu.
"..."
Ye Wenjun shows an expression of speechlessness, recalling how forward she was this morning, her pretty face heats up.
She picks up the portrait and sees that he had completed a couplet on it, feeling a wave of disappointnt.
Looking at the content on the note, a smile flits across Ye Wenjun’s calm face, and she says, "Let’s try."
She breaks the Black Wood Lotus and puts it into her mouth piece by piece.
The strong taste of the dicine makes her face slightly change color.
The powerful dicinal effect surprises her.
Ye Wenjun quickly sits cross-legged and enters Cultivation.
While Cultivating, she ponders—
Could it be that the mushrooms Chen Daotian was carrying that day, were all Black Wood Lotus?
Really, just three to five could solve the problem?
Hmm, I should bring a few more later and try.
With that thought, Ye Wenjun dispels all distractions and begins to cultivate earnestly.
