I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 472: Fan Boyu Comes at Night
What the heck! What’s going on?
Fan Boyu looked dumbfounded, "Do you think I have such thoughts about Du Yueyao?"
Seeing the suspicion and alertness in Lu Zheng’s eyes, Fan Boyu felt a bit awkward, but also relieved.
"Haha... haha..." Fan Boyu laughed dryly twice, shook his head and said, "Young Master Lu, you’ve misunderstood. I don’t have any thoughts like that towards Miss Du; I’m in my fifties, and Miss Du could be my daughter."
"Really?" Lu Zheng’s eyes flickered.
"Really." Fan Boyu smiled, "Miss Du is beautiful and kind-hearted. I feel sympathy for her, but I only wish her peace and happiness in life."
"Oh, oh, I see." Lu Zheng nodded, indicating he understood.
The two turned back and seemed to be listening to the storyteller on stage seriously again.
With a smile on his face, Fan Boyu thought about the news he’d recently heard and witnessed in Tonglin County.
"Let’s act tonight!"
Lu Zheng seemed relieved, but still remained expressionless, looking towards the stage and constantly paying attention to the movements behind him.
"Let’s act tonight!"
...
Late morning, the storyteller finished today’s story, made a circular bow, and received some silver coins as a reward.
Lu Zheng had no intention of having a meal at Leping Building, and instead was planning to go home.
Seeing Lu Zheng had something on his mind, Old Master Wang didn’t linger either, simply saying he would visit when he had the time, before quickly leaving the scene with his old servant.
Fan Boyu glanced at Old Master Wang’s departing back, nodded to Lu Zheng, then turned towards the South City Cong’an Square.
Lu Zheng didn’t follow Fan Boyu but instead left the city and headed for Shaotong Mountain.
...
Daoist Mingzhang was indeed elusive, never seen during the day, so Lu Zheng only brought Yuan Jing back.
"What kind of cultivation does the person opposite have?"
"I don’t know."
"You don’t know?"
"Yeah, that’s why we need more people to avoid any accidents."
"Besides me, who else did you call?"
"Just you, and my family."
Yuan Jing was speechless, "You call this more people?"
Lu Zheng smacked his lips and sighed, "After all, it’s still uncertain, and my cultivation isn’t weak either. If we call the Anomaly Suppression Bureau for full assurance, and it turns out that person isn’t a wizard of the Primordial Saint Sect, or it’s someone I can handle single-handedly, wouldn’t it be awkward?"
Yuan Jing, "..."
Feeling somewhat implied.
Lu Zheng continued, "My actions today can be considered stirring the grass to startle the snake. If he takes action, it should be tonight or tomorrow night. With you, me, Qingyan, Shen Ying, and the Eighteen Celestial Maidens, that should be enough, right?"
Yuan Jing nodded and asked, "Should we go directly to the inn to catch him? Might there be any mistakes?"
"That’s why I plan to invite him into a trap." Lu Zheng said, "We’ll set an ambush at the Liu Family."
"Will he fall for it?"
"Let’s test it!" Lu Zheng shrugged, "The longer it drags on, the worse it is for him."
"That’s true." Yuan Jing said, then patted himself with a Breath Concealment Technique, "I’ll go to your house first."
Lu Zheng nodded, saw Yuan Jing off at the city gate, and then headed to Peach Blossom Plain.
...
An hour later, he returned to the county town.
Arriving at Renxin Hall, he saw Liu Qingyan and the others still in the medicine shop.
...
"That Mr. Fan might be a wizard of the Primordial Saint Sect?" Du Yueyao said shocked.
Lu Zheng nodded, "Moreover, he’s very likely to appear tonight and abduct you." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Du Yueyao blinked, trying to regain a somewhat chaotic mindset, said nothing, waiting for Lu Zheng’s follow-up.
Du Yueyao’s calm demeanor satisfied him, so Lu Zheng smiled and patted the gourd, taking out a jade token.
"This contains two hundred-year-old ghosts with good cultivation, take it."
Lu Zheng handed the jade token to Du Yueyao, "Qingyan’s family uses merit to conceal themselves, most people can’t see their true form. From Fan Boyu’s behavior, he hasn’t noticed either."
This was one of the reasons Lu Zheng dared to set an ambush against him.
"My senior brother, Shen Ying, and others are hiding next door; Qingyan will protect you, but just in case, if Qingyan can’t react in time, take this jade token for defense." Lu Zheng said, "These two old ghosts will appear as soon as they sense abnormal power touching them."
"Okay, okay!" Du Yueyao took the jade token and nodded vigorously.
Lu Zheng looked at Liu Qingyan, "Qingyan, act according to the situation, prioritizing Yueyao’s protection."
Liu Qingyan nodded, then advised Du Yueyao, "If he doesn’t act immediately, Qingyan will wait and act accordingly."
Du Yueyao nodded repeatedly, anxious but with a hint of excitement, "I understand!"
Isn’t it just a sneak attack? I get it!
Elder Liu looked at the excited Du Yueyao, speechless, I was scared half to death, how can you, an ordinary person with no cultivation at all, not be afraid?
...
As night descended, everyone returned home.
They had dinner together, and then Lu Zheng went back to his home.
The Eighteen Celestial Maidens were still hiding in the gourd, but Shen Ying had come out, equipped with a Breath Concealment Technique, waiting in Lu Zheng’s bedroom with Lu Zheng and Yuan Jing.
"According to what Lord Duan said, the wizard from the Primordial Saint Sect this time is probably not weak." Shen Ying said.
Yuan Jing nodded, "But he’s unlikely to be the saintess of the Primordial Saint Sect taking personal action; if it’s just a sacrificial wizard, it should be manageable."
The most powerful figures in the Primordial Saint Sect are the saintesses, the most formidable of whom is called the Holy Empress, considered the sect leader.
As for sacrificial wizards, they are figures who initially guide saintesses, later assist, and finally serve saintesses.
No matter how powerful, they have limits.
The three sat silently, watching the time pass moment by moment, the city lights extinguished, all was silent except for the sound of cicadas at night and the wind blowing through the trees.
Here it comes!
Lu Zheng’s expression changed, feeling an aura descend from the sky.
A master!
Lu Zheng silently opened the door, and the three concealed their aura, quietly slipping out and coming to the base of the wall.
However, it seems Fan Boyu hasn’t made a move?
What’s going on?
...
On the other side, Du Yueyao was lying in bed, nervous and unable to sleep, while Liu Qingyan lay on her side pretending to be asleep, as if in a deep sleep.
Touching the jade token in her bosom, Du Yueyao was about to catch her breath when she heard a low voice at her ear, "Doctor Du, it’s Fan Boyu here, currently in the yard; please step out for a talk. Rest assured, Doctor Du, I mean no harm."
Du Yueyao gasped, instinctively looking at Liu Qingyan beside her.
Liu Qingyan continued breathing evenly.
Du Yueyao’s gaze shifted, and she softly replied to the air, "Can I... Can I bring Sister Qingyan along?"
"Best not to... Ah, it’s okay, you can wake her up."
Huh? Why does this wizard from the Primordial Saint Sect sound different than what Brother Lu and Sister Liu described?
Du Yueyao reached out to shake Liu Qingyan, who opened her eyes in a daze, "What is it?"
Liu Qingyan’s acting was divine, and Du Yueyao’s performance instinct was also triggered, "Sister, um... that Mr. Fan, the one who has rheumatism, he seems to be an Abnormal Person; he’s in the courtyard now, saying he wants to talk to me, I’m a bit scared, want you to accompany me."
"Oh?" Liu Qingyan got up in a squat, "In the courtyard?"
"Yes, yes!"
"Come on, let’s have a look!"
For tonight’s affair, Liu Qingquan was sent to sleep in Elder Liu’s room; only the two of them were in the side chamber now.
The two donned their inner clothing, timidly opened the room door, and saw Fan Boyu in linen clothes standing with arms folded in the yard.
"Mr. Fan..." Liu Qingyan held Du Yueyao, shielding her behind, then said clearly, "Why are you looking for Yueyao?"
Fan Boyu glanced at Du Yueyao, his expression gentle and warm, "I wanted to ask Doctor Du if she would like to become my disciple, to cultivate for longevity."
