Chapter 249: The Grandmaster Sends Fang Zhi Shi to Act
Fang Che left in a hurry.
The Starlight Commander had finished his shift.
The nine grandmasters all heaved a sigh of relief.
The punishment wasn't severe.
It's just cleaning, right? We can do it!
Forget about leaves, if we could wipe the air, we'd make sure there's not a speck of dust in the air!
...
Fang Che finally relaxed.
He finally learned about a branch of the Heavenly God Sect.
Tomorrow, I'll disguise myself as Fang Zhi Shi and destroy that place.
However, there's still one more process.
Fang Che's eyes lit up, and he sent a message to Seal God Palace: "Master, something's not right. My branch has been discovered by the Heavenly God Sect. Their branch commander, Qiao Yishu, brought over a dozen young masters and young ladies from their headquarters to cause trouble. I barely managed to deal with them. They almost scared me to death."
Seal God Palace asked anxiously, "Did you expose yourself?"
"No, this identity is fine. They only think I'm from Starlight, but... they kept pressing me about the whereabouts of Night Demon. Although I managed to deflect their questions, I could tell from their attitude that they'll be back. Master, from what I can see, these people are up to no good."
Fang Che sent, "Disciple feels a bit of a headache regarding this matter."
Seal God Palace's eyes flashed with determination, "As long as you didn't expose yourself, that's good. The Heavenly God Sect has re-established a branch? And they brought people to find you? What does this mean? What is Ku Yifang up to?"
Fang Che said, "Disciple thinks their ambitions are a bit too grand, and with so many experts supporting them, they can easily achieve their goals. I can tell they don't take us seriously at all. Those experts are all from their headquarters, backing them up. Disciple is a bit indecisive here. I dare to kill this Qiao Yishu, but as for the headquarters..."
Seal God Palace replied, "Their goal is to suppress our One Heart Sect! Originally on the White Cloud Continent, our One Heart Sect was the dominant force, and now these families want to take our place? But now they're bullying you, and their intentions are clear."
"Are they trying to replace our One Heart Sect's position?" Fang Che asked.
"Indeed."
Seal God Palace said, "Get rid of them!"
"But what about those from the headquarters..." Fang Che hesitated.
"Those people came to kill you, and you're still hesitant? What are you afraid of?!"
Seal God Palace, frustrated, said, "Besides, your location has been exposed to them, which is too dangerous! We must eliminate this threat!"
"Yes!"
Fang Che knew that Seal God Palace would react this way.
Seal God Palace only cared about One Heart Sect, and he had already seen this.
As long as he reported it, it would surely trigger Seal God Palace's sensitive nerves.
Indeed, it did.
In reality, the actions of these sects, along with the arrangements of their headquarters, had already infuriated the old demon of Seal God Palace.
He was effectively confined to the headquarters!
This was a huge joke, I, the Grandmaster of One Heart Sect, the newly promoted level-two sect, was confined to the headquarters by my own people!
The Grandmaster was on the verge of exploding with anger!
Upon seeing others bullying his disciple, his murderous intent surged.
He held the communication jade and asked Fang Che, "Do you know where Qiao Shu's branch is located?"
Fang Che replied, "I followed them after they left and found out their base is an escort agency."
"Well done."
Seal God Palace praised him, "Do you know what to do?"
Fang Che said, "Please guide me, Master."
Seal God Palace said, "You fool, Starlight can't take action, and neither can Night Demon. But Fang Zhi Shi can. Aren't you always eager to achieve merit and get promoted? These heads should be a significant addition to Fang Zhi Shi's merits, right?"
Fang Che said, "Disciple has considered this, and I also want to kill them very much. After all, these people are all from aristocratic families, and they are related to Sun Yuan's death. Disciple does want to avenge Sun Yuan. But Disciple is also worried that if my identity is exposed in the future, it will bring even more trouble to you, Master."
Seal God Palace's heart melted at once.
He felt that in his disciple's heart, he had completely replaced Sun Yuan, and even surpassed him.
Indeed, for the sake of his own consideration, even Sun Yuan's vengeance could be put aside for now.
His mood instantly became pleasant, and he said kindly, "Your consideration is comforting to me, but rest assured, the trouble you've brought as the champion is unprecedented. A little more won't matter. Go ahead and do it. I support you!"
"Yes, thank you, Master."
Seal God Palace added, "After you've dealt with them, inform me. I've been cooped up here and am bored. It'll be good to see their reaction."
Seal God Palace also wanted to have some fun.
Although he wouldn't be taking action himself, Fang Zhi Shi's involvement would make Seal God Palace feel even better.
You think you're so great?
Just a few of you upstarts, and you dare to challenge my position?
But didn't you know I have people in the Guardian Headquarters too? Hahaha...
What's so great about the aristocratic families in the headquarters?
My disciple killed someone from your family, so what?
And you dare to seek revenge!
You're truly clueless about life and death.
Don't you know whose territory this White Cloud Continent is?
May you all die, you bastards who want to kill my disciple!
"Following the master's orders. Master, you should also take care of yourself. Since you can't come out, don't overwork yourself. It's not good to get anxious and stressed. Moreover, it's better that you can't come out, not only is it safer, but you can also take this opportunity to seclude yourself, right?"
Fang Che expressed his concern.
The Seal God Palace's head, Tang Zheng, said, "You really don't understand, Master. He's at the peak of his irritability, how can he seclude himself with this state of mind? Alright, go and take care of your task. Remember, under no circumstances can the Night Demon's identity be exposed!"
"Yes, Master."
Tang Zheng put down the communication jade, feeling half of his frustration dissipate.
"It's still my disciple!"
Tang Zheng felt refreshed, picking up the communication jade and sending a message to Mu Lin Yuan, "Prepare some wine for tonight, to celebrate the snow."
"Alright, Master, what good news do you have?" Mu Lin Yuan, being Tang Zheng's right-hand man, immediately sensed something.
"I'll tell you tonight."
"Alright!"
...
The next day.
Early morning.
Fang Che first reported to Tang Zheng.
"Reporting to Master, today, Fang Zhi Shi is taking action!"
Tang Zheng replied quickly, "Wishing Fang Zhi Shi great martial fortune and success in everything!"
"Thank you, Master! When I get promoted and rise in rank, I'll treat you to good wine!"
"Fang Zhi Shi, go ahead and do your task. The officialdom is complex, so be cautious in everything. Remember one thing."
"Please instruct me, Master."
"Cut the grass and remove the roots, leave no survivors!"
Tang Zheng admonished earnestly.
Fang Che understood, "Fang Zhi Shi understands!"
"Go."
...
So, Fang Che arrived at the Guardian Pavilion early, earlier than everyone else.
After a moment, everyone arrived.
As usual, the Northern City patrol set off first because they were the farthest.
Although the Guardian Pavilion was located in the center of the White Cloud Continent, it was slightly closer to the southeast.
However, this "slightly" meant a distance of several dozen miles from the other directions, as the White Cloud Continent was vast.
The Northern City also had a branch, but its strength was too weak. When encountering major incidents like this, it was basically a suicidal situation.
Therefore, in addition to sending a few experts to reside there during this period, people were sent over every day to assist in the investigation.
Just as the ten people were about to set off, they saw the powerful Fang Zhi Shi following them. /
"Fang Zhi Shi, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, I'm going to the Northern City to buy something. I heard they have it there."
Fang Che said, "It's just right to follow you all; it'll be safer."
The ten people were delighted.
This Fang Zhi Shi was a powerful figure, and having him around significantly increased their safety in case of unexpected incidents.
"Welcome, welcome, a warm welcome!"
"..."
Fang Che was speechless.
They even brought out a warm welcome, which was a bit too grand.
So, the eleven people set off together.
Tang Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Today, he didn't need to go out; it was a day of guaranteed safety, which was truly a relief.
Zhao Ying'e quickly caught up and asked, "Where are you going?"
"To buy something in the Northern City."
"Oh, oh, don't go on an adventure with Captain Zuo."
Zhao Ying'e was concerned, but Captain Zuo Guanglie, who was nearby, couldn't help but say, "Captain Zuo's team is eager for merit, they dare to do anything. You're not from the Northern City, so don't get involved."
"Okay, okay. I won't get involved." Fang Che agreed.
The ten people looked at Zhao Ying'e, and Captain Zuo said, "Zhao Zhi Shi, don't worry. We'll deliver your Fang Zhi Shi safely to you, not a hair will be out of place!"
Zhao Ying'e's face turned red, and she clicked her tongue, "Nonsense, what do you mean 'your Fang Zhi Shi'?"
Her eyes shone, obviously enjoying the phrase 'your Fang Zhi Shi'.
The group laughed and left.
As they walked and talked along the way, they weren't lonely. Since the journey was not short, they all used their body techniques to fly swiftly.
The morning breeze carried a chilling coldness, and a faint hint of blood seemed to linger in the air.
Captain Zuo Guanglie sniffed in the cold wind, "I calculated with my fingers, and it seems there's a chance for combat today."
The group laughed, "Captain Zuo, your calculations are spot on!"
Fang Che thought to himself, your calculations are so accurate.
Finally, they arrived at the Northern City.
"Captain Zuo, you guys go ahead. I'll just buy something by myself."
Fang Che said.
"No need, no need. We'll accompany you to buy things first, no rush."
Captain Zuo Guanglie wouldn't agree. He felt that Fang Zhi Shi probably wasn't here to buy things. Following Fang Zhi Shi would definitely bring opportunities for merit.
So, he stuck to him like glue.
After all, what didn't the Eastern, Western, or Southern Cities have? Why go to the Northern City to buy something? The Northern City was much less prosperous than the Southern City. Captain Zuo Guanglie didn't believe Fang Zhi Shi's reason for a second.
He was just one merit away from being promoted to a Gold Star Executive, whose chest emblem shone with gold, much more prestigious than his current Silver Emblem.
Now, with a chance for merit right before his eyes, how could Captain Zuo Guanglie let it go?
