Chapter 1063 Forming the Guard Squad

 

“That’s a fact,” said Bai Konggu, looking around and asking, “Where are the others from Da Wei?”

Upon hearing this question, Da Wei sighed, glanced at Fang Yu again, and said, “Elder Bai, after Master Fang killed Fu Han and his subordinates that day… many people in the Kuitian Bureau took the opportunity to leave, fearing that another cruel controller like Fu Han would come.”

Fang Yu frowned and said, “Didn’t I say before that I would let Bai Konggu return?”

Da Wei didn’t dare to make eye contact with Fang Yu and said, “No one took those words seriously. After all, Master Fang, your reputation in North Capital… is quite intimidating.”

“You should have contact information for all members of the Kuitian Bureau,” Bai Konggu said with a furrowed brow.

Da Wei thought for a moment, then nodded, “Yes.”

“Then inform them of my return to the Kuitian Bureau and tell them to come back,” Bai Konggu said solemnly. “I promise them… from now on, either I control the Kuitian Bureau, or it will be shut down completely, and there will be no more Kuitian Bureau!”

Hearing these words, Da Wei’s expression changed, the flesh on his face trembling slightly.

“Alright… Elder Bai, I will do my best to contact all members and relay your message to them,” Da Wei swallowed and said, “I believe… as long as you’re in control of the Kuitian Bureau, they will be willing to return.”

After saying this, Da Wei left the courtyard to contact the members.

Meanwhile, Fang Yu and Bai Konggu sat down on stone benches in the courtyard.

“Your words just now were quite harsh,” Fang Yu looked at Bai Konggu with a smile.

Bai Konggu’s eyes were determined as he said, “Since we’ve decided to oppose the Hidden God Society, we must have this kind of resolve.”

Fang Yu nodded, then remembered something and said, “Your Kuitian Bureau’s defensive forces aren’t very strong… I’ll find some powerful guards for you. If the Hidden God Society sends people again, at least you’ll have some buffer time.”

“If you can help with this, that would be excellent,” Bai Konggu cupped his hands in gratitude.

Fang Yu stood up, walked outside the courtyard, and contacted Su Changge.

Afterward, he had Su Changge contact Murong Jian from the Dragon-Slaying Pavilion.

“Boss, what if he refuses?” Su Changge asked hesitantly.

As the chief disciple of the Dragon-Slaying Pavilion and the second-ranked super genius on the Heaven’s List… asking him to be a guard for the Kuitian Bureau, not to mention whether he would be willing, his elders in the sect would definitely oppose it.

“But… he probably wouldn’t dare refuse! If he refuses, I’ll threaten him!” Su Changge said fiercely.

“There’s no need. Don’t really treat me as the great villain of North Capital,” Fang Yu said calmly. “Just ask him in a normal tone. If he refuses, that’s fine. I’ll find someone else.”

“Okay,” Su Changge agreed without further comment.

In less than ten minutes, Su Changge contacted Fang Yu again.

“How did it go?” Fang Yu asked.

“That guy was quite cooperative. He didn’t hesitate much and agreed immediately. He said he’s willing to serve you, Boss,” Su Changge said. “He said he would explain to the elders in his sect himself and will arrive at the Kuitian Bureau by tomorrow at the latest.”

“That’s good,” Fang Yu said.

After settling matters with Murong Jian, Fang Yu called Lin Zhenshu of the Lin family.

“I need a team of people,” Fang Yu was much more direct with the Lin family, getting straight to the point.

“How many people? What cultivation level?” Lin Zhenshu didn’t ask about the reason, just inquired directly.

“About twenty or thirty would be enough… preferably with cultivation at the Yuan Ying stage or above,” Fang Yu said. “I want them to become guards for the Kuitian Bureau.”

“The Kuitian Bureau?” Lin Zhenshu’s tone was somewhat surprised, but he didn’t ask further, saying, “Alright, I’ll select thirty elites for you as soon as possible. They’ll head to the Kuitian Bureau tomorrow morning.”

After hanging up, Fang Yu returned to the courtyard and told Bai Konggu, “It’s settled. A team will arrive at the Kuitian Bureau tomorrow. The captain is at the Hua Shen stage, and the team members are all around the Yuan Ying stage.”

“They’re not very strong, but they’ll have to do.”

Bai Konggu stood up and bowed deeply to Fang Yu, saying, “Thank you for your help, Master Fang.”

“No need for thanks. I’ll be relying on you to provide information later,” Fang Yu said with a smile.

The value of the Kuitian Bureau lay in the vast amount of information they possessed.

Throughout the entire Yan Xia region, they always knew first whenever something happened anywhere.

For Fang Yu, this was crucial.

…

After leaving the Kuitian Bureau, Fang Yu returned directly home.

Next, his target was the next location where alien races might awaken.

The 24th, 10 AM, Sun Island.

This island was located off the coast of East Capital, less than two nautical miles away from East Capital.

“The 24th, which is the day after tomorrow… I should wait until tomorrow to check the situation at Black Stone Village, then go to Sun Island,” Fang Yu thought.

Although he had already blasted the statue in the so-called Kitchen God Temple and even entered the independent space where the Corpse Race emerged, not only setting it on fire but also cutting off the spatial tunnel.

Logically, nothing should happen.

But the existence of the Corpse Race was extremely bizarre.

Therefore, he still needed to be cautious.

A day quickly passed.

At 9 AM on the 23rd, Fang Yu stood in front of the now-unrecognizable Black Stone Village, quietly observing the situation ahead.

It was very peaceful, with no sounds or any auras appearing.

Fang Yu stood still for ten minutes, and there was no unusual movement.

“Seems like there’s no problem,” Fang Yu thought, preparing to leave.

But just then, his casual glance caught something amiss, and he rushed forward.

He arrived at the deepest part of Black Stone Village, at the position backed by the Tiannan Mountain Range.

There used to be a cave here, leading to the space where the statue was located.

But now, the cave had completely collapsed.

When he left the night before last, the cave entrance was still intact.

Although Fang Yu had used the Departure Fire, it wouldn’t cause the cave to collapse…

What had caused the cave to collapse?

It couldn’t be the Corpse Race, as they had already been cleared out… so there was only one possibility.

After Fang Yu left, someone else had come here.

For some unknown reason, that person had destroyed the cave they had passed through.

Fang Yu looked around, his brows tightly knit.

Who… would come here after him? And what was their purpose?

Due to the collapse of the cave, Fang Yu stayed in Black Stone Village for another half hour.

But after a thorough search, he found no results.

So, he returned to North Capital.

Shortly after returning to North Capital, Fang Yu received a message from Su Changge.

“Boss, Murong Jian and I have arrived at the Kuitian Bureau, along with a group from the Lin family… They say you sent them here. What should we do now?” Su Changge asked.

“Wait for me. I’m coming over now,” Fang Yu said.

…

When Fang Yu arrived at the square of the Kuitian Bureau, he saw Murong Jian and the thirty elites brought by Lin Zhenshu.

“Master Fang,” Murong Jian immediately cupped his hands upon seeing Fang Yu.

Fang Yu nodded to him and looked toward Lin Zhenshu.

“Thirty people in total, including three at the early Hua Shen stage, ten at the peak Yuan Ying stage, and seventeen at the mid Yuan Ying stage,” Lin Zhenshu said. “These are the top forces of the Lin family.”

“Those at the Hua Shen stage… should stay with your Lin family,” Fang Yu said.

“This is the family head’s request. He said we must select the most elite warriors for you,” Lin Zhenshu said.

“Very well,” Fang Yu nodded and said, “I may need to borrow these people for quite a long time.”

“In today’s North Capital, the family clans can’t stir up much trouble,” Lin Zhenshu said. “They are also willing to work for you.”

After speaking, Lin Zhenshu turned to look behind him.

“Master Fang!” The Lin family elites bowed in unison.

“This is Murong Jian. From now on, he will work with you and be a member of your team,” Fang Yu said.

“Understood,” the Lin family elites responded in unison.

Lin Zhenshu looked at Murong Jian with surprise in his eyes.

As the long-time number one on the Heaven’s List and now the second-ranked, Murong Jian had always been the benchmark for young people in North Capital’s martial arts world.

Today, seeing Murong Jian at the Kuitian Bureau, Lin Zhenshu was already surprised.

He hadn’t expected that Murong Jian would also know Fang Yu, and even be willing to become a guard for the Kuitian Bureau.
