But this reckless and tactless woman, she truly doesn’t understand why Master Quan Heng would be willing to associate with such a woman.

Even if these two were just standing together, their styles are... incompatible!

"Master Xue, calling the little monk back, is there any difficulty?"

No sooner had they parted their feet, then they were urgently called back; it’s not hard to imagine, there must be some issue encountered.

Quan Heng’s demeanor was calm, though he didn’t smile, he naturally gave a sense of peace like a gentle spring breeze.

"Bald Pigeon↑Pigeon↓, ignore her! It’s obvious she’s trying to use her charms to win you over! Come fly kites with me; you promised to stay with me all day today!"

The reckless woman opened her arms and hugged Master Quan Heng tightly, which even made Xue Yunting’s blood pressure rise a bit.

She truly thinks that this woman’s conduct and character are far from being worthy of Master Quan Heng.

Suppressing the emotions in her heart, Xue Yunting sincerely begged, bowing her head.

"Master Quan Heng, this humble woman does have one thing to ask the master’s help with."

"Amitabha, what does Master Xue seek, feel free to say, within the capabilities I possess, this little monk is willing to assist Master Xue."

Master Quan Heng showed a trace of compassion and pity on his face.

Were it someone else displaying such an expression, even just slightly, it would make Xue Yunting feel extremely disgusted and angry.

But towards Master Quan Heng, she couldn’t raise such feelings of dislike.

Because the compassion and pity of Master Quan Heng don’t seem to be targeted at her alone but rather anyone in her current situation would receive such a promise and reaction from Master Quan Heng.

Equality.

Equality for everyone, regardless of gender or status.

This kind of thing, perhaps only the high monks of Zhongfu Temple could achieve.

Xue Yunting didn’t want to admit the reason for her lack of disgust was somewhat due to Master Quan Heng’s handsome appearance and tranquil demeanor.

Joining her hands, she glanced sideways at the improper woman clinging to the master’s body.

"What are you looking at me for!"

Guo Yuxin glared back angrily, completely oblivious.

Quan Heng lightly shook his head.

"Master Xue, do not worry about her, she is not a gossip."

Matter concerning life and death, Xue Yunting was still somewhat hesitant, but gritting her teeth, she whispered.

"Master Quan Heng, you know of my situation in An Mansion... so I want to ask you to help me find two people in Thunder City, two... benefactors of mine!"

Finding someone isn’t considered difficult.

However, Thunder City, Quan Heng isn’t familiar with, might take quite some time to find them.

"This isn’t too hard, does Master Xue have any traits or names of the two benefactors?"

"The two benefactors are named Diao Deyi and Ding Hui respectively, as for their appearances..."

Master Xue was still trying hard to recall the appearances of her two benefactors but didn’t notice that in front of her, both Quan Heng and Guo Yuxin suddenly widened their eyes, even Quan Heng who showed some slight loss of composure and excitement for the first time in front of Xue Yunting.

Diao, Diao Deyi???

...

Forest Snake Gang.

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for killing... and gaining 303 experience points.]

[System Prompt: Experience points exceeded 100, converted into a total of 3 attribute points.]

The eight-legged arachnids floated on the pool water surrounding the pavilion.

The bubbling sound seemed to indicate something heavy had sunk to the bottom of the pond.

The center of the pond covered by lotus leaves also seemed to be slowly permeating a crimson tint, spreading outward.

"Diao, Mr. Diao?!"

Fast.

Everything happened too quickly.

From Mr. Diao’s strike to the head flying, to the blood mist bursting, to the demon being slain.

The battle happened so fast even the fake Gang Leader couldn’t react before it was all over.

The splattering blood rain, now finally falling, completely merging into the pool water.

From the remnants floating on the water, it’s clear Mr. Diao engaged in a few exchanges with the demon, but the battle was too fast for him to keep pace, already over.

"Have someone fish the demon’s body out and take it to my wife."

"Yes... Yes!"

Facing a God of Killing-like existence, even the fake Gang Leader was trembling.

Seeing Fang Yu had already sheathed his sword, he finally mustered the courage to question doubtfully.

"Mr. Diao, how did Mr. Diao know that Mrs. Shang was a demon?"

"How did I know? My eyes are the measure! I could see at a glance that this thing wasn’t human! Bold demon dare to feign mysticism in front of me, utterly unaware of life and death!"

Fang Yu said coldly, making the false Gang Leader frightened beyond measure.

But if he had just a bit of sense to think it through, these words have no difference from the words of those killing for the Foolish Underworld??

However, at this moment the false Gang Leader was in no state of mind to think that much, he was emotionally disturbed.

The false Gang Leader had cooperated with Mrs. Shang for a long time, entrusting her with many dirty and tiring tasks.

And it’s not just him, many gangs around have had business dealings with Mrs. Shang. From what he knew, even some big gangs and major powers have had connections with her.

Over the years, Mrs. Shang’s reputation had deeply rooted in people’s hearts, the false Gang Leader never even considered how such a capable and charming Mrs. Shang... could possibly be a demon!

It must be, it surely must be that a demon had just devoured the real Mrs. Shang not long ago!

Thinking of this, the false Gang Leader suddenly felt a great hatred towards the corpse in the pool.

"Gang Leader, has your strategy against that guy been effective? Is there a traitor among the Four Great Hall Masters?"

The false Gang Leader showed an awkward expression.

"It’s still early, I can’t make a conclusion yet. Everything is still under observation, I ask Mr. Diao to be patient."

Fang Yu thought for a moment, then said: "Then I ask the Gang Leader to keep the four Hall Masters protecting my wife closely, losing her is not an option."

Fang Yu didn’t want to entrust Ding Hui to unfamiliar people for protection, but he also couldn’t stay at the Forest Snake Gang all the time without leaving.

Stagnation is not an option, he must step forth and continue to enhance his power.

This Mrs. Shang was merely an appetizer; once out of the Forest Snake Gang’s gate, he would take the initiative to feed himself to the demon!

Taking advantage of the unfamiliar terrain, he wanted to give the local demons a vivid hunting lesson!

"Yes! I guarantee with my life, as long as Mrs. Diao is at the Forest Snake Gang for a day, nothing will happen!"

The false Gang Leader pounded his chest in assurance.

Before witnessing Fang Yu’s skills, he might have harbored sneaky thoughts.

Having now seen Fang Yu’s prowess, he dared not entertain any dissent.

Killing Great Demons can be handled just fine, then killing a weakling like him would be like slaughtering chickens, ducks, or wild dogs, easily done.

Fang Yu left, walking away like the wind.

He has a grand plan to hunt demons, and in Thunder City, this grand plan can likely only be executed once.

A fragrant Evil Qi conglomerate, a walking gourmet feast.

This feast he wished to invite all the demons inside Thunder City to share!

Inside, demonization stirring restlessly.

A faint blood-colored steam surrounding him, seemingly present yet absent.

...

On Jiangxin Bridge, heads bustling.

Shouting voices, calls, ceaselessly resounding.

At the end of Jiangxin Bridge, a magnificent tavern stood there.

Moving up along the tavern, one floor, two floors, three floors, four floors!

In a window seat on the fourth floor, a man was both admiring the crowd below and sipping wine by himself.

Step.

Step.

Step.

Footsteps came from the corridor, gradually approaching, followed by a clear knock on the door.

Knock knock knock.

"Come in."

Creek.

The door was pushed open, then closed firmly behind.

The man wearing a sheep mask respectfully bowed towards the man enjoying wine at his seat.

"Mr. Song."

Song Qianlong then slightly retracted his gaze, glanced at him lazily and said.

"Remove the mask."

"Yes."

The man wearing the sheep mask then removed the mask, revealing a face... almost identical to the current Gang Leader of the Forest Snake Gang!

Almost like twin brothers, barely different!

"Mr. Song, the goods you wanted, I have prepared them for you, they are still in the old place, you just need to send someone to retrieve it."

The man who removed the mask still displayed a very reserved demeanor, seemingly having a bit of fear towards the man in front.

Yet Song Qianlong smiled and patted the soft seat beside him.

"Come, sit down, have a drink with me."
