Chapter 756: Why? [Part 2]

The black ice fog exploded with a loud sound, revealing Fang Che's tall and handsome figure as the first to emerge.

His face still carried a battle-ready expression, his eyes cold and sharp, and his features as rigid as an ice sculpture.

However, before the ever-stoic Captain Fang could even glimpse the outside situation, Yan Xifeng had already pounced on him and tightly embraced him! It was as if a giant bear had suddenly hugged a little white rabbit!

Yan Xifeng's embrace completely covered Fang Che, making him invisible.

"Good boy! Good boy! Good boy! Haha..."

Yan Xifeng patted Fang Che's back vigorously, her voice slightly muffled. Her usually unsmiling face was now filled with joy.

She couldn't control her facial expression.

Tears streamed down her face, but the smile at the corners of her mouth became brighter. The tears flowed into her mouth as her smile widened.

Behind them, the moment Wolf Fang and the others emerged, they were enthusiastically embraced by the Feng Family disciples outside.

"Well done... Good job... You've endured so much!"

"You've suffered! You've worked hard!"

"The Feng Family is proud of you!"

As the white fog dissipated, a gateway appeared, revealing a massive space within, like a complete egg.

Outside, a red carpet was laid out, adorned with blooming flowers, and a fragrant aroma filled the air.

Guardian flags fluttered on both sides, and the red carpet extended outward. Outside, people were already waiting, holding Guardian Merit Medals.

At the top of the battle zone, the Destiny Gateway was wide open, and infinite Fortune Power surged towards the Guardian Headquarters in Rocky City!

...

Guardian Headquarters.

Dongfang Sansan finally smiled in relief.

She said to Xue Fu Xiao, "You can go out now."

Xue Fu Xiao felt as if he had been granted a great pardon and his burden lifted. He replied, "Then you should rest well."

"Mhm."

Dongfang Sansan had not rested for a hundred hours, yet she was full of energy and smiled as she said, "Go find Sun Xiayang, and don't forget to follow my instructions."

"I understand."

"Don't forget to beat that kid up!" Dongfang Sansan added with concern, gritting her teeth. "Beat him to a pulp!"

"I understand!"

Just as Xue Fu Xiao was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and turned back, his face serious. "Sansan, Fang Che is in danger."

"Why?" Dongfang Sansan frowned.

"He broke through the Mystic Realm and killed so many of the Bi Family. How can Yan Nan not be angry? How can the Bi Family not seek revenge?" Xue Fu Xiao asked.

"What can Fang Che use to stop the Only Righteous Sect's Bi Family? This problem is too big. The consequences are unimaginable. He has made a contribution, but... his situation is worrying."

Dongfang Sansan furrowed her brows and looked at Xue Fu Xiao speechlessly. "Xiao Xue, why are you suddenly thinking about this?"

Xue Fu Xiao angrily said, "Isn't what I'm considering reasonable? Isn't this the truth? Where am I wrong?"

"It makes sense. What you said is correct," Dongfang Sansan replied.

"Since it makes sense, why..." Xue Fu Xiao was puzzled again.

"You're right in your considerations, but what do these considerations have to do with me?" Dongfang Sansan sighed. "Shouldn't this be a problem for Yan Nan to consider? After we assigned this task to Fang Che, how should he act to ensure that we don't suspect him of being an informant? How can he make the Only Righteous Sect, especially the Bi Family, not seek revenge, but also ensure they do seek revenge... Because if they don't, I'll suspect him. How can he strike the right balance?"

"That's Yan Nan's job. We each have our own responsibilities, and we should focus on our own tasks."

Dongfang Sansan asked Xue Fu Xiao, "Why are you asking me?"

Xue Fu Xiao was stunned and said, "But... but... you... don't you have any concerns at all?"

"What concerns do I have?" Dongfang Sansan asked in return. "My concern is considering Fang Che's reward. As for the subsequent matters, I'll wait for Yan Nan to make a move, and then I'll respond. But right now, I'm idle. Don't you understand?"

Xue Fu Xiao's eyes widened in circles. "But the problem with Fang Che's situation... is still severe..."

"Yes, so Yan Nan must solve it," Dongfang Sansan said.

Xue Fu Xiao finally couldn't help but scratch his head, feeling perplexed. "Why am I confused again?"

"Yes, why are you confused again?" Dongfang Sansan looked at him sympathetically. "Can you listen to my advice?"

"What?"

"In the future, please leave the thinking to me." Dongfang Sansan spoke with emphasis.

"What about me?"

"Shouldn't you be going to save Sun Xiayang? Why are you still standing there?"

"Yes, yes, I'm leaving now."

Xue Fu Xiao scratched his head, deep in thought, and finally left, his mind filled with doubts. He disappeared into the distance.

It wasn't until he was a thousand li away that he finally realized, "That's true..."

"Sansan is right. This isn't something I should be thinking about..."

...

Dongfang Sansan finally sat down, brewed a cup of tea, and settled into her chair, letting out a deep sigh.

"Phew!"

A smile then appeared on her face.

She took out the communication jade and sent a message to Xue Fu Xiao, "Be careful when you fight Fang Che, don't actually kill him!"

Xue Fu Xiao, who was on his way, almost fell from the sky: How could I not know this?

After finally getting some rest, Dongfang Sansan drank a pot of tea before picking up the communication jade to send a message.

"Your son has done a great job! Truly remarkable! He's indeed worthy of being Fang Lao Liu's son, and you've raised him well, brother."

"..."

Then, a string of flattery, filled with genuine joy, was sent.

This was one of the rare occasions in Dongfang Sansan's life where he resorted to such flattery.

On one hand, he was afraid that the person who had already sent dozens of messages would explode, but on the other hand, such outstanding achievements were indeed worthy of his praise.

As expected, a smug reply came from the other side: "Of course! Don't you see whose son he is?"

Then he asked, "What great deed did he accomplish?"

"This little rascal is determined. He actually unified a Mystic Realm inside and successfully held on for a hundred hours of life-and-death battles and bloody struggles!"

Dongfang Sansan sent this message with a smile: "Before this, I didn't know that this little rascal had secretly done such a big deed."

For those who understood the dangers of the battle zone, these two sentences were completely satisfying! As expected, the other side immediately roared in anger: "When this little brat comes back, I'll beat him to death! He doesn't know the height of heaven and the thickness of the earth... I'm so angry I could explode..."

Dongfang Sansan put down the communication jade on the table with a relaxed mood.

He didn't look at it.

Instead, he drank tea.

After a leisurely moment, he picked it up again, and as expected, there were dozens of messages filled with rage and shouting about how to beat the son.

There was no need to look at them.

Then, Dongfang Sansan added, "It's good for the child to be adventurous. What are you so angry about? Let the little eagle fly on its own once its wings are strong."

As expected, this further ignited Fang Lao Liu's towering rage!

"He must be beaten to death! His wings are as weak as a little chick! Anyone could easily squeeze him to death!"

Fang Lao Liu gnashed his teeth.

He was already furious.

The effect was achieved.

Dongfang Sansan immediately changed the topic; saying more would expose his intention to guide Fang Lao Liu to beat his son to vent his anger.

So he said, "Wu Tian Qi is doing well here, and indeed, your people are all reliable."

They are all reliable.

He secretly stabbed another knife.

Then, after some encouragement, he cut off the communication.

Let Fang Lao Liu deal with it himself, and by the way, wait for the son to come home and beat him to help me vent my anger.

Right now, Lao Liu must be shocked, proud, happy, scared, angry, glorious, anxious, heartbroken... all these emotions must be filling his stomach, right? But this guy has nowhere to vent his anger, and he can't tell anyone! You just hold it in, Lao Liu!

You must be proud that I'm not using you, and I'm holding it in, right? Haha, let's see who can hold it in longer! With all your talents, you can only stay at home as a warm-hearted dad...

I'll make you hold it in until you explode! Dongfang Sansan, with the demeanor of a big brother, took a sip of tea, imagining Fang Lao Liu's current helpless rage, and smiled.

He felt great!

It was wonderful! But Fang Che came out too quickly... he had only been inside for a few days?

I let you go in to improve your cultivation, and the spiritual energy inside is denser than outside. You've only been there for a little over a month, how much can you improve?

How should I use it next? Dongfang Sansan had a slight headache.

Fang Che came out too fast, disrupting the plan. Moreover, due to the battle zone's characteristics, those who come out of the Annihilation Battle cannot re-enter.

The original plan was to give you a year, but you came out after just a month and a half.

Although the plan was later adjusted, the minimum time inside was still supposed to be a few months...

"Indeed, plans change faster than they are made!"

Dongfang Sansan contemplated.

He sent a message to Yan Xifeng.

...

A grand ceremony was held in the battle zone to celebrate.

That night.

Fang Che was forced to drink by over ten thousand people.

He barely had a few bites of food before he was completely drunk, constantly using his spiritual power to expel the alcohol. He couldn't hold it anymore, and eventually, Fang Che understood.

He had to pass out.

So he gave up resisting the alcohol and passed out.

Finally, he was sent back to his warm room.

He slept deeply.

Then, the next morning, he was confined.

"You're not allowed to go out, not allowed to wander, not allowed to... Just say you're having a realization and are in seclusion, quickly improve your cultivation."

Yan Xifeng personally came to notify him, his face stern: "Wait here first."

"I don't have any issues."

Fang Che was confused: "What did I do? Why am I being confined?"

"These are orders from above."

"..."

Fang Che angrily said, "I've shed blood for the continent, I've made contributions to the continent... I'm a hero..."

Whether he was a hero or not, Yan Xifeng didn't care.

He sneered, "Guess how many people in the battle zone under my command can beat you to the point where even your mother won't recognize you?"

Fang Che didn't guess.

So he immediately went along with it.

"The Grand Marshal is right, I also wanted to rest for a few days. I've been really tired lately."

"Good boy."

Yan Xifeng walked around, then closed the stone door.

Suddenly, he was heard giving orders outside: "Keep an eye on this kid! If he comes out, I'll dock your pay and make you eat the Poison Dragon Whip!"

Inside, Fang Che muttered, "Damn!"

Threatening with self-harm wouldn't work, but threatening others...

Fang Che was left helpless.

What had those outside done to deserve a pay cut and the Poison Dragon Whip?

Fang Che turned around and lay down on the bed.

He couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, if Ye Meng were here, it would be perfect.

Fang Che was confined.

Meanwhile, the 377 Feng Family disciples waited to bid farewell to their captain, as 175 Crystal Ice Caskets were already lined up outside, and the Guardian escort team had arrived.

The medals had been distributed.

Along the way, the Guardians guarding the grand hall had received the notice. On a certain day at a certain hour, the Crystal Ice Casket team would pass by their station. They must be prepared.

The Feng Clan headquarters had also received the message.

Everything was ready.

The 377 disciples strongly requested to bid farewell to their captain, but he was nowhere to be found.

Unable to see their captain, the three hundred-plus disciples were unrelenting.

Where did our captain, such a big figure, go?

Later, Yan Xifeng personally stepped in to soothe them: "Your captain has a secret mission and has already departed. You should leave now. Go home and rest well. He asked me to tell you: Farewell, and may we meet again in the Jianghu."

"Also, remember to follow the arrangements and instructions when you get home. Understand?"

"..."

Everyone looked dejected.

But they all understood about the secret mission.

Unable to bid farewell to their captain, each of them felt a deep sense of regret.

But Yan Xifeng said something.

"In the future, when you're in the Jianghu, your captain's name will probably deafen your ears..."

This sentence sparked their endless curiosity.

On their way back, they constantly inquired, but the Feng Family disciples who came to receive them had strict orders: "This is a solemn moment, not suitable for excessive chatter. You'll find out about the captain's matter later."

This order made sense.

On this journey, if Fang Tu's identity was exposed, and people saw these guys with smug smiles... How embarrassing would that be?

If word got out, they might even be thought of as disrespectful to the hero.

But Fang Che's deeds would surely explode in the ears of his old subordinates.

So... they had no choice but to take this approach.

The crowd, filled with confusion, followed the team back home like constipated fools.

Wherever they passed, the grand hall was already cleared of the public, keeping them at a distance.

A path was cleared for the Crystal Ice Casket to pass through.

The atmosphere was as cold as ice and snow, enveloping the sky and earth.

There were Guardians in the Cloud Armament Ranking, a procession from Guardian Headquarters on both sides, their own family warriors, and fellow combatants escorting them.

But they rejected the ordinary onlookers.

The road was cleared, and silence prevailed.

Honor was untarnished, glory needed no flaunting, and achievements required no embellishment. All that was needed was a peaceful journey, allowing the heroic souls to return home quietly, and the warriors who had fought for centuries to rest.

There was no need for spectators or discussions about 'How did they die?' 'Where did they fall?' 'Another defeat?' 'Is this the hero?' 'Tsk, such a foolish death... With such a good family, what more could they ask for?' 'The Feng, Yu, and Xue families are so powerful, yet so many still died...'

Regardless of praise, admiration, reverence, or remembrance; or sarcasm, grumbling, and strange gossip, they didn't want to hear any of it.

They protected what they needed to protect, without regret or complaint.

In the past, such incidents had occurred. When the Crystal Ice Casket passed by, rumors spread; and these rumors, many were heartless. Those heartless ones hid in corners, thinking others couldn't hear them...

But those who came were all Saints and Sage Kings, or at least Venerables.

So, there had been bloody incidents.

Because they wouldn't allow their heroes to be insulted after sacrificing themselves.

Since then, they kept the road clear and silent.

Let the heroic souls return home quietly.

Because... some things, when your cultivation reaches a certain level, you'll naturally understand.

If your cultivation isn't there, understanding won't help much.

The 377 who came out of the Mystic Realm headed home, their minds filled with questions that almost drove them crazy.

The only thing that could ease their boredom was Feng Dao's deeds.

"You don't know this, but when Feng Dao returned home, the family cherished him for only half an hour. Maybe even less."

"Why?"

"No reason. Then they started celebrating your captain's promotion."

"What?"

"No reason. The Ancestors were so happy they got drunk."

"Why?"

"No reason."

"..."

"Then those thirty-seven returned, and the family celebrated for an entire night."

From the second day onwards, the entire Feng Clan began to curse and beat Feng Dao.

"Huh? Why?"

"No particular reason. It's just a continuous beating. First, his parents beat him, then his grandfather, followed by other grandfathers, and even the ancestors. In between, a few ancestors jumped ranks just to beat him."

"Huh? Why?"

"No reason. It's said that Feng Dao has become famous within our Feng Clan. Almost everyone knows about him. When people mention Feng Dao, they admire him and give a thumbs up, praising him as a true talent. Then, they look for opportunities to beat him up."

"No, you've been talking for so long, but why?"

"No reason. You'll understand when you get home."

"Why?"

"No reason."

The 377 people were completely hooked by this story.

Unknowingly, the journey passed swiftly beneath their feet...

The Feng Clan was getting closer and closer.

...

Meanwhile, Fang Che had been sleeping in the battle zone for three days.

Finally, he received a message: "Appointing Fang Che as the Guardian Continent's Life and Death Patrol Captain, Southeast Law Enforcement Hall Chief, and Southeast War Hall Deputy Chief. Report for duty immediately. Mission Priority: Patrol and enforce law in the Southeast Seventeen States, targeting the Night Demon Sect for eradication!"

It must be said that Fang Che's early return this time truly caught Dongfang Sansan off guard.

Originally, Zhao Ying'er and Ye Meng had demonstrated exceptional organizational skills in their administrative work.

Now, with Ye Meng staying by Fang Che's side, she had lost her role as an informant. However, her organizational skills were precisely what the Guardian Headquarters desperately needed.

Moreover, the two women were already in a dangerous situation here.

The internal life and death patrols were already risky, and with Fang Che's victories over the Only Righteous Sect members becoming known, the danger to the two women increased.

Although their cultivation was not weak, the crisis they faced was too great.

Theoretically, Fang Che had offended countless people, and the two women would face just as many enemies.

On one hand, Dongfang Sansan was concerned about retaliation from the Only Righteous Sect. On the other hand, she was even more worried about the families that Fang Che had previously patrolled, who might use the enmity with the Only Righteous Sect as an excuse to retaliate against him.

Before Fang Che's involvement in the battle zone, the hatred from the Only Righteous Sect was not apparent. These families would have had no name to act upon, making it easier to expose them.

However, after killing so many Bi Family members in the battle zone, the situation was completely different.

The Bi Family served as a huge natural shield.

Moreover, the families that Fang Che had previously patrolled would definitely become more active: killing people could be easily blamed on the Only Righteous Sect's retaliation!

This was truly offending a super family.

As long as it was done cleanly, it would be virtually seamless!

Dongfang Sansan considered at least a hundred ways to kill the two women without leaving any troubles for Fang Tu, and he secretly arranged everything according to his plans.

But he still worried that he might overlook something.

From Fang Che's actions, it was clear that his family was his absolute taboo. If someone dared to harm Ye Meng, Fang Che would not hesitate to wield his butcher knife! Because he didn't even care about his own life.

He was someone who was always eager to put himself on the list of martyrs. After you harm his family, do you expect him to negotiate with you? Consider the bigger picture? Justice? The people?

Impossible!

Dongfang Sansan understood Fang Che's resolute nature too well.

However, to transfer Ye Meng, she had to seek Fang Che's approval.

Dongfang Sansan originally planned to create a seamless reason within this year to naturally transfer the two women. But now, she hadn't figured it out yet, and the timing wasn't right. Before she could, Fang Che had already completed his mission in the battle zone. Since Fang Che had returned, was there still a need to move Zhao Ying'er and Ye Meng? Moreover, if they were transferred now, the meaning of 'protecting them out of concern' would be too obvious.

She was still considering the options.

Fang Yunzheng's message arrived: "Ye Meng is in danger."

Dongfang Sansan sighed, "In your opinion, isn't this too early for your son to return... I didn't even have time to plan, and he's already back."

Fang Yunzheng also felt dejected.

Because he truly understood: no matter how Dongfang Sansan calculated and strategized, no matter how she foresaw and prepared, there would always be some things that even she couldn't predict!

He knew better than anyone that although his older brother had been deified by the entire continent, he was still just a human.

Not a true deity.

But there was one significant difference between Fang Yunzheng and Dongfang Sansan—he could be unreasonable, while Dongfang Sansan couldn't.

So Fang Yunzheng directly and unreasonably said, "What does that have to do with me? Isn't this your responsibility? Anyway, my son can't have any accidents, and neither can my daughter-in-law. You figure it out!"

"You're the Chief Military Advisor, not me! I'll be unreasonable, and you can deal with it. If anything happens, I'll make trouble for you!"

"Your father and son are working for you, and if you can't even protect a woman, what use are you?"
