Chapter 57: Fang Che Achieves Merit

This was a test.

Yin Shen Gong already had a vague plan in mind, but he wanted to see how this kid would react.

Fang Che's reply arrived immediately: "Subordinate's humble opinion, the leader can contact the Heavenly God Sect and tell them that due to the Ximen family's association with the Heavenly God Sect and their attempt to retaliate against a student from Baiyun Martial Academy, they were counter-killed, which exposed the identities of the Ximen family and Ximen Xuri, leading to their targeting by Baiyun Martial Academy. Now, Baiyun Martial Academy has sealed this information, preparing to catch a bigger fish. Let the Heavenly God Sect prepare quickly to avoid further losses. This way, the leader of the Heavenly God Sect will owe us a favor."

Yin Shen Gong's eyes widened: Talent!

What a damn talent!

We killed your people, sold your people, and now you owe us a huge favor.

This... this plan is much better than my previous idea.

But...

The timing doesn't seem to match up, does it?

Yin Shen Gong quickly reacted and asked: "Has the Ximen family contacted the Heavenly God Sect to retaliate against you?"

Fang Che's reply came immediately: "Not yet. But we can find two hidden agents of the Heavenly God Sect in Baiyun Prefecture and have my master personally take them out, framing the Ximen family. Then, I can take these two heads to Baiyun Martial Academy to gain merits and their trust, paving the way for future advancements. As for the leader's meeting with the Heavenly God Sect, it can be postponed by a day or two after this event."

"......"

Yin Shen Gong fell into a prolonged state of shock.

Too damn ruthless!

You damn well killed their key candidate, sold off their entire family, and now you want to take out two more people from the Heavenly God Sect?

But this plan... it sounds very tempting.

Because by doing this, the Heavenly God Sect will definitely owe us, the Only Me Orthodox Sect, a favor!

And it's a big favor!

I'm helping you avoid an entire line of losses!

That old thing should know how to properly thank me, right?

Yin Shen Gong pondered.

He sent a message: "After doing this, your situation will become more dangerous. The Heavenly God Sect won't let you go."

Fang Che replied: "As it should be. If I die because of this, then it's my fate. If I survive by chance, I will rise to power over their corpses."

Yin Shen Gong fell silent.

Seeing the last words "rise to power," he felt a subtle touch in his heart, and a plan seemed to be forming, becoming more complete.

His gaze gradually turned cold and sharp.

He didn't reply to Fang Che.

The communication went silent.

...

Late at night, during the second watch.

Sun Yuan suddenly received a message from Yin Shen Gong.

"Contact Qian Sanjiang, take Night Devil, and carry out a task in a certain place in Baiyun Prefecture, do this and that..."

Sun Yuan immediately woke up, and just as he was about to contact Qian Sanjiang, a message from Qian Sanjiang arrived first: "Sun Yuan, there's a task!"

Sun Yuan leaped up.

He rushed straight to Fang Che's mansion.

He directly leaped over the wall.

Fang Che woke up instantly: "Master? What..."

"There's a task! Ten sect points!"

"Alright!"

Sun Yuan took Fang Che and silently left the courtyard.

Sun Yuan's cultivation was far higher than Yen Meng's, so Yen Meng didn't notice at all.

After running through the night for a while, Qian Sanjiang emerged from the densest branches of a large tree.

"Follow me."

On a bustling street.

A gold-plated signboard of the "Lu's Bank" glistened in the night.

"This is one of the Heavenly God Sect's hidden bases in Baiyun Prefecture. There are three Heavenly God Sect members, one at the general level and two grandmasters. The other staff members are disciples of these three."

Qian Sanjiang explained.

"Is the information reliable?"

Sun Yuan asked.

"Would our own investigation of our own people be unreliable?"

Qian Sanjiang replied with a gleeful expression.

"Excellent."

Fang Che stood on the side, dumbfounded.

Is this really happening?

He had merely suggested targeting a couple of hidden agents, but Yin Shen Gong directly handed over an entire base of the Heavenly God Sect?

Qian Sanjiang put on a mask and immediately performed the "Illusionary Bone Transformation," turning himself into a tall, skinny man with a square face.

Sun Yuan was dressed entirely in black.

Fang Che was also dressed in black, but in his signature black cloak with dark gold patterns.

He didn't even bother to cover his face.

"Let's do it!"

Qian Sanjiang leaped up and charged into the bank.

Sun Yuan followed closely behind.

Fang Che stayed on the large tree, waiting.

His cultivation was too low, so he could only wait to pick up the heads and take credit for them later.

Qian Sanjiang and Sun Yuan would handle everything else.

With a loud boom, the gate of Lu's Bank burst open, and Qian Sanjiang stormed in like a demon god.

Shouts of alarm and anger erupted from inside.

"Who is it?"

"Enemy attack!"

Qian Sanjiang's sinister laughter followed: "Hehehehe..."

"Ah..." The sound of screams filled the air.

Sun Yuan's sword was already stained with blood.

Since his identity needed to be concealed, Sun Yuan couldn't use his sword.

But he was at the king level, and the people in this bank were at most at the general level—a huge difference in power.

Moreover, there was Qian Sanjiang, a far superior senior devotee of the Only Me Orthodox Sect, making this battle a one-sided massacre!

Bang bang bang...

Crack crack...

The eight people in the bank were almost simultaneously killed.

Then Qian Sanjiang and Sun Yuan skillfully searched for identification items. All items bearing the Heavenly God Sect's marks and the unique identity symbols of these hidden agents were found without exception.

A total of eight people, none were missed.

All were solid evidence, proving they were indeed Heavenly God Sect demons.

After matching each person with the evidence, they gathered everything related to the Heavenly God Sect. Finally, they opened the secret room and threw out the statue worshiped by the Heavenly God Sect inside.

Then Sun Yuan and Qian Sanjiang began looting the treasures and money.

The pile of wealth was so large that Qian Sanjiang put everything into his spatial ring.

Finally, Sun Yuan said goodbye to Fang Che, stood on top of the tree, and shouted a phrase loudly as Fang Che had instructed. Since his identity needed to be concealed, Sun Yuan couldn't use his sword.

"Brother Fang, I'll leave this place to you. I have to carry out a secret mission and can't show myself. Thank you for protecting the Su family's property. We brothers will meet again!"

Then the two of them leaped up to the treetops and disappeared.

Fang Che climbed down from the tree.

He calmly brought out two horse-drawn carriages from the bank.

He began loading the corpses, evidence, and statues into the carriages.

When the experts from the Baiyun Prefecture Guardian Hall arrived, they saw only Fang Che, busy with bloody hands.

"Stop!"

"Raise your hands! Don't move!"

"Who are you?"

"What happened here?!"

A strange atmosphere suddenly spread.

It was Chen Ruhai, the deputy hall master of Baiyun Prefecture Guardian Hall, with a sour-faced deputy hall master, Fan Tiantiao, beside him.

Fan Tiantiao was a bit unlucky.

He originally lived next to Fang Che, but suddenly his job was transferred from Bibo City to Baiyun Prefecture.

Although he was still a deputy hall master, the same as before, Baiyun Prefecture's jurisdiction was much larger than Bibo City's.

So this was actually a promotion.

So, Fan Tiantiao happily went to complete the transfer procedures, finally able to leave Chen Ruhai, who had tormented him with his foot odor for years.

But when he got back, he saw Chen Ruhai was also packing.

Upon asking, he found out they were still in the same department.

Their destination was exactly the same, and their superior specifically arranged: "You two will continue to cooperate."

Fan Tiantiao was devastated on the spot.

This promotion, usually a joyful event, did nothing to improve his terrible mood.

On the first night after arriving, before he even had time to lay out his bedding, a massacre took place.

His already bad mood worsened.

And to top it off, he had to go to the crime scene with Chen Ruhai again.

Fan Tiantiao felt an urge to commit suicide.

What does it feel like to pile three floors of misery on top of an already bad mood?

Then they arrived and saw...

"Damn, isn't this Fang Che?!"

Chen Ruhai was also dumbfounded: How did this kid end up here?

"What's going on?"

Fang Che was already prepared, smiling a bit shyly: "Good evening, sirs. It's really tough to be out on a mission so late."

Both of them rolled their eyes simultaneously.

You've got the nerve to talk about tough. If it weren't for you causing such a big incident, would we be out here suffering?

"What exactly is the situation?" Chen Ruhai's tone was very unpleasant.

"This matter is a long story," Fang Che said. "Can we talk privately?"

Chen Ruhai and Fan Tiantiao exchanged a glance and then followed Fang Che a few steps away: "Speak."

Then Fan Tiantiao moved a few steps away from Chen Ruhai... and his feet, standing on the other side of Fang Che.

Fang Che looked at them in surprise, not understanding why these two important-looking figures were standing on either side of him.

Like bodyguards.

So Fang Che began: "Some time ago, during the martial academy's grand competition, I accidentally killed Ximen Xuri. But what I never expected was that Ximen Xuri's Ximen family turned out to be members of the Heavenly God Sect."

"…What? What?"

Chen Ruhai and Fan Tiantiao were a bit confused: "What's going on?"

"That's the situation,"

Fang Che said, spreading his hands: "Luckily, my big brother Su Yue..."

"What? Your big brother Su Yue?"

Chen Ruhai was shocked.

Damn, where did this dead guy's name come from?

Su Yue, wasn't his entire family wiped out?

"My big brother Su Yue, what's wrong with that?" Fang Che looked puzzled.

"Nothing, continue," Chen Ruhai said, pinching his brow with his still somewhat odorous hand.

Then he brought it to his nose and sniffed.

"Damn you!"

Fan Tiantiao suddenly exploded, shouting a curse in frustration.

Fang Che looked utterly confused: "????"

Fan Tiantiao forced himself to calm down: "It's nothing, I wasn't talking about you. Continue."

Fang Che: "..."

Damn it!

"...Yes, my big brother Su Yue discovered in time during a mission that the Ximen family was in contact with members of the Heavenly God Sect to assassinate me. My brother, with great loyalty, traveled a long distance with his master and senior brother, delivering a thunderous strike to eliminate the threat, killing all the Heavenly God Sect members who were about to take action."

"That's the whole story."

"Everyone, don't touch the scene."

Fan Tiantiao immediately issued the order.

Then he and Chen Ruhai went to the carriages to examine the various pieces of evidence.

As veterans of the long struggle against demonic sects, they could immediately tell that these people were genuine members of a demonic sect.

Most of these items were impossible to counterfeit even if one tried.

These people were indeed from the Heavenly God Sect.

In other words, Fang Che had indeed made a great contribution!

A significant one!
