Chapter 781: Stretching and Striking [Two-in-One]
Chapter 781: Stretching and Striking [Two-in-One]
Fang Che fell into deep thought for a moment before speaking, "The Night Demon Sect is running rampant, and we must take action to uproot them. However, I need to discuss and plan this carefully. Can you two understand?"
"Of course, that's only right. Such a demon can't be easily eliminated."
"At that time, I estimate that I'll need your cooperation, such as luring them out."
"We understand, and we will cooperate fully!"
"Good, please return first, and then I'll make arrangements. I also ask that you two remain in Donghu for a while and be ready to assist in the capture at any time."
"Understood!"
After seeing them off, Fang Che sat in his chair, deep in thought.
The Night Demon Sect's actions were unacceptable.
They were too arrogant.
Were Mo Wang and Ding Jieren being too brazen? If this continued, even if the Southeast Headquarters couldn't get rid of them, they would eventually be eliminated by the Guardians!
But the problem was, what should be done? Fang Che considered a plan: to have Sun Wutian impersonate Fang Che or the Night Demon, and then Fang Changguan would lead a team to take action. The Night Demon Sect would resist fiercely, resulting in both sides suffering heavy losses, and a play would be staged.
But even then, there would still be risks.
At the very least, it would be difficult to keep it a secret from Yan Beihan and Feng Yun.
The root of the problem was that the Life and Death Patrol had gone to the battlefield, but only Fang Che had returned, and then the Night Demon appeared.
This was an issue that couldn't be avoided no matter what! So, he couldn't make up his mind.
But if he didn't do this, could the Night Demon Sect truly be eradicated?
Was he going to turn himself into a leader without followers? Fang Che had no choice but to seek help from Sun Wutian again and explained the situation.
Sun Wutian, in a subtle way, asked if he could pretend to be a mysterious expert and appear at a critical moment to rescue the Night Demon Sect.
Sun Wutian, initially excited at the prospect of using his doppelganger ability, soon realized it wasn't that simple.
His enthusiasm waned, and he cursed Fang Che, "I'm not your subordinate! Nor am I a bodyguard for those brats in the Night Demon Sect!"
"You damn fool, are you looking for death? You actually want me to work for you? Who gave you the courage?!"
"Get lost! Don't bother me with this nonsense!"
Sun Wutian was furious!
This brat had really crossed the line!
With a pale face, Fang Che put down the communication jade, sighing in despair. This path was blocked.
This was truly troublesome.
The Guardians must take action, and they must achieve results. Although the Night Demon Sect was prepared, Fang Che was well aware of their strength.
They might not be able to withstand his own power.
"Why can't they just behave and let me deal with others first?" Fang Che was filled with melancholy.
Just then, a message arrived from the Temple of the Seal God. It was a reply from Yan Nan regarding his previous report.
Fang Che's spirits lifted, and he began to read it.
He couldn't help but touch his nose, smiling bitterly. If only this message had arrived a breath earlier, he wouldn't have been cursed at by Sun Wutian.
Yan Nan's message sternly prohibited the appearance of the Night Demon Sect leader! Regardless of the circumstances, the Night Demon must not show up!
The message also stated that they could investigate Zhao Ying'er, provide resources to Fang Che, and more...
However, there was no response regarding the matter of the encirclement and suppression of the Night Demon Sect.
Fang Che's heart was filled with worry.
Just then, a message from Sun Wutian arrived, and he immediately started cursing Fang Che, covering his face with insults.
It turned out that Yan Nan had sent him a message, asking him to temporarily take care of the Night Demon Sect during this period because the sect leader was absent... and so on.
He was also required to spread the news that since the Night Demon was not present, he would look after the sect for the time being.
Moreover, he couldn't reveal his identity as Sun Wutian.
If he was supposed to look after them, they couldn't be eliminated, so why are you complaining to me and using Yan Nan to pressure me into doing things?"
Sun Wutian's nose fumed with anger.
"Just you wait, I'll make sure you don't get away with this!"
Fang Che felt deeply wronged, "Grandmaster, I'm innocent. I don't even have the contact information of Vice Sect Master Yan. How could I possibly have the virtue or ability to interact with such a top-level figure? Please understand, Grandmaster."
Sun Wutian thought about it and realized it made sense.
So he asked, "Then what's going on?"
Fang Che innocently replied, "I truly don't know, Grandmaster. Your kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain. How could I possibly do something so ungrateful? Moreover, this is not something within my reach..."
Sun Wutian now realized that he had wrongly blamed Fang Che.
He said, "Just wait."
Then he went to find Yan Nan, brimming with anger, "When did I become so lowly that I have to be a bodyguard for a subordinate sect? Yan Wuge, you don't even treat me like a person anymore? Who do you think I am? A subordinate sect, Wuge, this operation is inappropriate."
Yan Nan's message arrived, "You, Sun Wutian, don't know a good thing when you see it! Isn't that your family's business? How are you being wronged by watching over it? Why are you complaining to me?"
Sun Wutian was enraged, "How did it become my family's business?
"Is the Night Demon your disciple?"
Yan Nan angrily said, "Isn't this the foundation of the Night Demon? If it's the Night Demon's foundation, isn't it also your foundation? Do you want the Night Demon to be as isolated as you are in the sect, without any helpers or close subordinates?"
"You enjoy living such a life, enjoying being a great devil all by yourself, that's your own business! But let me tell you, how can you possibly achieve anything that way? The Night Demon has a foundation now. What's wrong with you, the old ancestor, giving a little help? At the very least, there's a chance for it to become a formidable force in the future, right?"
"Besides, aren't you doing this to cover for your disciple? You're not willing to do even that?"
"I'm telling you, Sun Wutian, as long as the Night Demon doesn't die, I don't care if the Night Demon Sect dies out! If you're not willing to do it, I don't want to bother with it either! Do whatever you want!"
Yan Nan was furious: "Just because I'm thinking about your family, it becomes my fault, Sun Wutian? You really have no sense! Who are you talking to? As your elder brother, I'm worrying about your future, and you actually complain?"
"Sun Wutian, who are you talking to?"
Sun Wutian was almost speechless from the scolding.
But after thinking carefully about what Yan Nan said, he sighed. It seemed to make sense.
This matter, it seems, was indeed a bit unreasonable of me?
Regardless of my habit of going solo, the Night Demon's future power cannot go solo. After so many years in the Only Righteous Sect, how could Sun Wutian not know the drawbacks of going solo?
Even if he wasn't afraid of those major families, it was definitely more convenient for them to handle things!
After all, they just needed to sit at home and send a message, and everything would be settled.
For someone like him, who worked alone... if he needed someone to do something, it was considered a favor. Sometimes, he even owed a favor...
For example, if you needed the Bi Family to do something, you couldn't just ask any Bi Family descendant, right?
You would have to find Bi Changhong.
But finding Bi Changhong... you would owe him a favor!
This was an unbreakable truth!
Would the Night Demon also end up owing favors everywhere in the future? Besides, if the Night Demon could develop, wouldn't he have less need to owe favors in the future?
Sun Wutian suddenly understood.
He apologized, "Fifth Brother, I've thought it through. I was wrong and unreasonable, even getting angry with you. That was wrong, and I admit my mistake."
Yan Nan, who was adept at dealing with Sun Wutian, saw that this guy had conceded and knew it was effective.
So he said, with a mixture of frustration and care, "You and your impetuous temper, can't you change after all these years? You don't even bother to figure things out before you explode! At least use your brain, brother, and don't mix up your priorities."
"That's me, your Fifth Brother. No matter what you do, I won't be angry. But that doesn't mean I'm comfortable, right? I've been using my power to benefit your family, and in the end, I get a scolding from you and you look down on me... Do you think I feel good about that?"
Sun Wutian felt even more embarrassed: "Fifth Brother, it's my fault. I'll apologize by offering you a drink when I get back."
"Do I need your drink? What drink haven't I had? You always come to eat and drink for free and take things. How can you even say you're offering me a drink to apologize? Every time you offer me a drink, you end up eating and taking things. I get scolded and have to give you a ring full of good things. Sun Wutian, are you taking me for a fool?"
Yan Nan angrily scolded, "I suspect you're deliberately pretending to be confused, making an excuse to apologize, but actually just coming to freeload from me!"
Even Dong Fang San San would be impressed by Yan Nan's words.
The manipulation, wordplay, and control he used left Sun Wutian completely speechless!
Not only did he not feel scolded, but he was actually happy and proud.
Feeling elated, he even tried to be cute: "Hehe, who else would let me take advantage of them but you, my Fifth Brother? I can't take advantage of anyone else."
Yan Nan cursed, "Do you want to drive me to my grave! You're definitely doing this on purpose!"
"How could I, Fifth Brother? You know me, I'm not that cunning."
Sun Wutian smiled with a sly grin.
"Ha, you're not lacking in cunning at all."
Yan Nan had already rubbed Sun Wutian into submission, and now he changed his tone.
"Brother, it's not easy to survive in the sect, you know that, right? I want to protect you, but you have to give me someone worth protecting, right? What can I protect when you're already the best in the world? We just want to start from the small things, right?"
"Right?"
"Look at Bi Changhong, with his family and the White Fog Continent. Not only does he have a family, but he also has a major sect. Chen Gu... even Duan Xi Yang, does he go solo? Those protectors in our sect, don't they all follow his orders? Only you have nothing."
"You can't just keep making me worry about you, can you?"
I am, after all, the Vice Sect Master. Is it only for your family's sake? At least now, the Night Demon has some value, and I have a reason to take action. But then again, if it weren't for your relationship with Sun Wutian, how much value could a lowly little demon from the Night Demon have? Why would I look at them differently?"
Yan Nan earnestly pleaded, "Brother, don't blame me for being an overbearing older brother... I'm doing this for your own good. Oh, you say that you're like this every day, you're like a cat one day and a dog the next, and as an older brother, I don't know when you'll get angry, and I have to be on guard every day..."
"How serious is the Night Demon issue? Fang Che went to the battlefield, and the Night Demon disappeared; now that Fang Che is back, the Night Demon has reappeared? Are you stupid? You have no brain, you just know how to spend day after day in the White Fog Continent listening to books and watching plays!"
"How big of a loophole? You can't help patch it up, and you're getting angry at me?"
Yan Nan sighed, speaking earnestly, "Brother, even if you become invincible in the world, you'll still be manipulated by others and turn into a zombie, lying underground for thousands of years. I really don't want there to be a next time, brother!"
Sun Wutian flattered, apologized, promised, and committed, all while trying to please.
It took half a day to calm Yan Nan down.
In the end, he left with a final remark, "If you keep this up, I really won't care about you anymore! You can die however you want! You've made me so angry!"
"That's not possible, Fifth Brother, you should still take care of things, and if you don't, who will take care of me..."
Sun Wutian was extremely careful.
Finally, the communication was cut off.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and couldn't help but sigh, even slapping himself, "You're so ungrateful, with your narrow-minded chicken guts, not knowing what's good for you... Oh, why can't you think things through carefully..."
"With this, I've offended Fifth Brother, and my big mouth! It's really..."
So, Sun Wutian kept flattering and pleasing Yan Nan.
Although he was saying that Yan Nan was meddling, Fang Che could still sense a sense of smugness in Sun Wutian's words.
This old devil was truly unpredictable, just now he was furious, wanting to tear me to pieces, and now he seems to be in high spirits, wanting to show off.
Fang Che thought, "The Ancestor will have to work hard."
Sun Wutian said, "What's so hard about this? For our family's sake, Yan Wu has been so concerned that he's reached this point. For our own people to do something, isn't that what we should do?"
Fang Che nodded repeatedly and replied, "The Ancestor speaks the truth."
"Anyway, whatever plan you have, just tell me, rest assured. There won't be any mistakes."
"Yes, Ancestor, no matter what the plan is, I will report to you at the first opportunity and follow your instructions."
Fang Che cut off the communication and couldn't help but feel a little lost.
What did Yan Nan feed Sun Wutian to make him so obedient? There was a feeling that Yan Nan could control Sun Wutian's emotions. If he wanted him to be angry, he would be angry. If he wanted him to be happy, he would be happy. If he wanted him to willingly work, Sun Wutian would immediately be willing to be a loyal and obedient workhorse.
This was truly amazing!
Too scary!
Moreover, Fang Che could sense that Sun Wutian's trust and affection for Yan Nan had become almost pathological.
"There's no hope of bringing him back!"
Fang Che sighed in his heart.
However, since Sun Wutian had agreed to cooperate, this matter became much simpler.
Fang Che immediately began planning intensively, mobilizing all the high-end combat power from the Battle Hall.
Then, he started to withdraw the peak combat power from the Patrol Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall.
Furthermore, he contacted the Great Dao Escort Agency and the Heavenly Escort Bureau to confirm their combat power.
That night, he went to the Heavenly Escort Bureau in the guise of the Starlight Rudder Master.
He officially announced that the Starlight Rudder Master had become the Chief Patrol of the One Heart Sect and also assumed the identity of the Third-Rank Patrol of the Only Righteous Sect's headquarters.
The Third-Rank Patrol is the lowest-ranking patrol in the headquarters, but for the Starlight Rudder Master, it was still a rapid rise.
This was mainly due to the influence of the Heavenly Escort Bureau. As the Heavenly Escort Bureau was affiliated with the headquarters, the founder, Starlight Rudder Master, couldn't just hold a position in the One Heart Sect. After deliberation, the higher-ups at the headquarters hinted that the Starlight Rudder Master would rise to this position.
A rapid rise!
Immediately, Zhao Wushang and the others were overjoyed.
They celebrated one after another.
Then they talked about the current situation of the Heavenly Escort Bureau and the continuous robberies by the Night Demon Sect.
Regarding this, Zhao Wushang was very angry: This Night Demon Sect is too unreasonable!
No matter what, the Night Demon and the Starlight Rudder Master are almost like members of the same sect, right? Yet, the Night Demon showed no mercy to the Starlight Rudder Master.
At first, Zhao Wushang thought it was a coincidence, wanting to give the Night Demon Leader some face, and the Heavenly Escort Bureau would compensate once.
But he didn't expect that they would be robbed consecutively eleven times! Zhao Wushang was furious.
So, he started to seek help from his family.
However, the so-called experts sent by the headquarters were not only arrogant, but they were also useless against the Night Demon Sect! Now, they are recovering at the Heavenly Escort Bureau... Each one of them was beaten and crippled.
But when he thought about it, it made sense. After all, with Zhao Wushang's current status, and the Zhao family, which was barely even considered a medium-sized family, what kind of experts could they possibly mobilize?
But the Starlight Patrol was not happy to hear this.
"What the hell?"
"Useless and yet they act so arrogantly? Even daring to act like a big shot?"
The Starlight Patrol hummed, and his hideous face immediately turned red with anger, "Take me there!"
During this time, the Heavenly Escort Bureau had endured quite a lot of insults from these people.
Seeing the Chief Escort's anger, everyone became excited.
"In that elegant residence over there!"
"Damn it, such useless people, yet they live in an elegant residence!"
The Starlight Patrol strode out.
On his shoulder, the nine rings of the nine-ringed saber jingled, and instantly, the night sky was filled with killing intent!
"Chief Escort..."
Zhao Wushang quickly followed, "Don't be impulsive!"
"Get lost!"
The Starlight Patrol rushed into the elegant residence like a raging tiger.
Inside, sudden screams filled the air, and the stench of blood suddenly permeated the place.
Zhao Wushang's face twisted, these were all people sent by the headquarters...
He rushed in, "Chief Escort, Chief Escort ah ah ah..."
Then, a scream was heard, "Ah!"
The Starlight Patrol wiped the blade with a white silk cloth, complaining as he walked out, "This damn thing, if it's not made of divine metal, it gets so dirty. It's always so dirty... Damn it..."
Everyone stood at the entrance of the elegant residence, frozen in shock.
They saw blood slowly flowing out from the doorway of each room.
Inside, there was dead silence.
Without even entering, they knew that there was not a single survivor.
Everyone felt a chill rising from the soles of their feet, all the way up to their heads.
They felt as if they were standing naked in the freezing snow, and they couldn't help but shiver.
The Starlight Patrol carefully wiped the blade, and said indifferently, "These useless wastes, keeping them is just a waste of food and resources. Even if the Central Sect knew, they would praise me for saving the Sect a lot of resources..."
"Hey? What's with all of you?"
The Starlight Patrol said, "Everyone, smile."
"Hehehehe..."
A cacophony of unpleasant laughter filled the air, and everyone forced a smile with pale faces.
"Don't worry, this has nothing to do with you."
The Starlight Patrol said nonchalantly, "It's just a few deaths, people die every day in this world, you should get used to it."
Zhao Wushang's voice trembled, "But what about dealing with the Night Demon Sect...?"
"To deal with the Night Demon Sect, isn't there the Warden? Isn't there the Guardian?"
The Starlight Patrol said, "We're doing our business peacefully, shouldn't they protect us? What are they for if not that?"
"..."
Zhao Wushang was speechless.
You're right, I have no words to refute that.
"Just follow the orders of Warden Fang Changguan. As for the Night Demon Sect... Hehe, this time, the Night Demon went too far, but it's not our fault."
After cleaning the blade, the Starlight Patrol sheathed it and said, "These people are indeed a danger, we don't have to worry about leaks from our own people, but it's too dangerous for them to stay here."
Zhao Wushang had also thought about this.
It was indeed very dangerous.
These people were like a bunch of ticking bombs.
But he had never thought of solving the problem in this way.
At this moment, Zhao Wushang felt his mind go blank.
"Only the Heavenly Escort Bureau in Donghu Continent was intercepted?"
The Starlight Patrol asked, "What about White Cloud Continent?"
"The White Cloud Continent was also intercepted."
"I'm asking if there are people like this in White Cloud Continent."
"Yes, even more than here!"
"Damn it! How are you and Zheng Yunqi handling things? Why bring these people here? If you can't solve it, leave it to the Guardian. You need to understand your position! I find that you still haven't changed your mindset!"
The Starlight Patrol was furious.
"You all reflect on this here for a while, don't take any action, wait for the Guardian's arrangements, and prepare to surround and suppress the Night Demon Sect!"
The Starlight Patrol hurriedly rushed into the sky, "I'll go to White Cloud Continent for a round, leaving such a threat, damn it, you all have pig brains..."
"Clean up properly."
"Dispose of the bodies quickly."
The Starlight Patrol said he was leaving, and with one leap, he disappeared.
Fang Che was truly anxious.
Because having these people here would expose them at any moment. What was the situation now? The entire Warden's net had been cast, and it was inevitable that the investigation would reach the inside of the escort agency.
With these people here, if even a hint of demonic aura leaked out...
So he traveled day and night, crossing mountains and rivers, and arrived at White Cloud Continent.
He scolded Zheng Yunqi thoroughly.
Then he issued the same order, "Wait for the Warden's handling, and let the Guardian uphold justice for us law-abiding citizens!"
