Chapter 127: The Great Misfortune of the Jin Family!

 

You should know that standing in front of him is Xia Heguang, the head of the Jiangnan Defense Office!

With Xia Heguang’s status and power, asking someone to help with a task is just a matter of a single sentence, right?

However, Fang Yu not only wanted compensation, but he also kept raising the amount.

If he angered Xia Heguang… it would be a huge problem.

Ji Rubai nervously observed Xia Heguang’s expression, always ready to step in and smooth things over.

Meanwhile, Fang Yu sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, casually sipping from his teacup, completely unburdened.

It is only natural to pay someone for their help.

Moreover, Fang Yu made such a request precisely because he valued Xia Heguang’s identity.

If it were anyone else, even if Fang Yu demanded seventy demon beast inner cores as payment, they wouldn’t be able to gather that many.

But Xia Heguang was different; with his status, he certainly had many ways to collect demon beast inner cores.

Xia Heguang furrowed his brows, deep in thought.

But soon, his expression relaxed.

In the face of the honor of the Defense Office headquarters, these demon beast inner cores were hardly worth mentioning.

“No problem, Master Fang. As long as you can ensure that our Defense Office headquarters secures a top-three position in the competition, I will definitely provide you with no less than seventy demon beast inner cores as compensation,” Xia Heguang said.

“Good.” Fang Yu nodded, then suddenly thought of something and said, “By the way, when I represent your Defense Office headquarters in the competition, I won’t use my real name. I’ll be using a new identity; that shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

“No problem,” Xia Heguang replied with a nod.

…

In the northern part of Jiangnan, at a mountain-top villa area.

In front of the Jin family’s gate, illuminated by two streetlights beside the door, two shadows were cast.

One shadow was a stretched-out human figure, while the other was an incredibly grotesque creature.

“Fang Yu… I didn’t expect to come back and kill so soon, did you?” Wu Baiyu looked at the brightly lit Jin family house, a sinister smile spreading across his face.

Beside him stood the monster that had crawled out from underground.

At that moment, two patrolling security guards inside the Jin family gate noticed the shadows at the door and shouted, “Who goes there? Who are you looking for?”

Wu Baiyu did not answer.

The two security guards exchanged glances and approached the gate.

At this moment, the monster standing next to Wu Baiyu let out a low growl from its throat.

“Are you hungry? Don’t worry, everyone here today will be your food!” Wu Baiyu said with a fierce glint in his eyes.

The two security guards reached Wu Baiyu and were about to question him.

But just then, they noticed the monster standing beside Wu Baiyu.

“Ah…”

Immediately, the two security guards turned pale with fright, screamed, and turned to run.

“These two are just appetizers; go ahead and have a bite,” Wu Baiyu grinned.

As soon as his voice fell, the monster lunged forward, catching up to the two security guards in just two or three steps.

It extended its claws and grabbed both security guards by the shoulders.

The two guards were effortlessly lifted up like puppets on strings.

The monster then stuffed the two guards into its mouth one after the other and began to chew.

“What’s happening!?”

The screams of the two security guards drew the attention of those inside the house, and a middle-aged man rushed out.

The middle-aged man happened to see the scene of the monster holding the security guard and screamed, quickly running back inside.

“There’s a monster! A monster has come outside!” he shouted as he ran.

The entire Jin family was startled by his voice.

The Jin family members were having dinner in the inner room when they heard the man’s voice, their faces turning pale.

The family head, Jin Deyuan, stood up and looked at the terrified man, asking, “What monster? What are you talking about?”

“Out, outside, there’s a…” The man was so frightened that he couldn’t catch his breath and fainted.

The Jin family members were left dumbfounded by this sudden situation.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

At that moment, heavy footsteps echoed in the hall.

Everyone’s expression changed as they stared at the outer room.

Slowly, a figure appeared before them.

Seeing this person, Jin Deyuan’s face changed dramatically!

It was actually Wu Baiyu!

After Fang Yu left that day, he had intended to send Wu Baiyu to the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association and lock him up in the sky prison.

But then Wu Baiyu had pretended to go to the bathroom and slipped away.

Jin Deyuan thought he would never see Wu Baiyu again, but unexpectedly, just a few days later, Wu Baiyu had returned!

“Are you having dinner, Jin family head?” Wu Baiyu said with a mocking smile.

“What do you want?” Jin Deyuan sensed that the visitor was not friendly and asked in a deep voice.

“My companion is hungry, and I want to find him some food,” Wu Baiyu replied.

Jin Deyuan’s expression darkened as he looked at Wu Baiyu, unsure of what he meant by that.

“Come, let me show you my new companion.”

At this moment, Wu Baiyu stepped aside.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

Another round of footsteps followed.

Soon, the Jin family members saw the monster.

Its fangs still had remnants of blood, and it exuded a stench of decay and blood.

The Jin family members were initially stunned, then their faces turned pale, and they screamed!

Many were so frightened that they couldn’t even sit still and fell directly to the ground.

They had never seen such a monster outside of movies!

Jin Deyuan turned pale, looking at Wu Baiyu, and asked, “What do you want?”

“First, I want my companion to be full, and then… I want to see Fang Yu,” Wu Baiyu said, his eyes filled with resentment.

“Fang, Master Fang…” Jin Deyuan’s face lost all color.

“I saw you chatting quite well with him afterward, even wanting your daughter to apprentice under him. I think you should be able to bring Fang Yu here, right?” Wu Baiyu narrowed his eyes and said.

“Wu, Master Wu… I’m not familiar with Master Fang at all…” Jin Deyuan stammered.

Wu Baiyu let out a cold laugh and glanced at the creature beside him.

The monster immediately took a few steps forward, extending its claws to grab a member of the Jin family and stuffing him into its mouth.

The person didn’t even have time to scream before being swallowed by the monster.

Seeing this, the other Jin family members screamed in terror, with many even losing control and crying out.

Jin Deyuan turned pale, trembling as he said, “Wu, Master Wu, you were there that day… you should know that Master Fang never accepted my daughter as a disciple. We really aren’t familiar with him… It was Miss Li who brought Master Fang over. If you want to take revenge on Master Fang, why make things difficult for our Jin family…”

Wu Baiyu laughed maniacally and said, “Jin Deyuan, now you want to distance yourself? Why didn’t I see you come out to plead for me that day?”

Jin Deyuan trembled all over, unable to speak.

“If it weren’t for you calling that damned Fang Yu over, my mask wouldn’t have been shattered that day, I could have subdued a thousand-year-old vengeful spirit, and my cultivation wouldn’t have been wasted… Do you think I should let you go?” Wu Baiyu said fiercely.

Seeing the madness and resentment in Wu Baiyu’s eyes, Jin Deyuan’s legs went weak, and he nearly collapsed to the ground.

“Immediately bring Fang Yu here! Otherwise, I will kill your entire family!” Wu Baiyu said with a cold smile.

At this moment, the monster had finished enjoying its previous meal, and a foul odor spread throughout the inner room.

Many Jin family members couldn’t help but vomit.

Jin Deyuan knew that Wu Baiyu had completely lost his mind. If he didn’t comply, the Jin family would truly face a disaster tonight!

Jin Deyuan immediately turned around, took out his phone, and dialed Li Xiaomo’s number.

He didn’t have Fang Yu’s contact information, so he could only notify Li Xiaomo.

However, after dialing for a full thirty seconds, no one answered.

Pick up, pick up…

Jin Deyuan was sweating profusely from anxiety, but no one answered.

After dialing three or four times, Li Xiaomo finally picked up the phone.

“Jin family head, what’s wrong?”

“Miss Li, please bring Master Fang to our Jin family immediately. Wu, Master Wu is looking for Fang Yu…” Jin Deyuan said urgently.

“Wu, Master Wu? Wu Baiyu?” Li Xiaomo was taken aback and asked.

“Yes! If Master Fang doesn’t come, our Jin family will be exterminated!” Jin Deyuan was nearly in tears from anxiety.

“I will notify Mr. Fang immediately. You find a way to stall Wu Baiyu,” Li Xiaomo said.

…

In Lijiang Community.

Wang Yan didn’t have to work the night shift today and returned early, preparing a sumptuous dinner for Fang Yu.

Fang Yu held a chicken leg in his left hand, and his bowl was piled high with meat, all served by Wang Yan and Yu Yueyue.

“Xiao Yu, I haven’t cooked for you in a while, so eat more today,” Wang Yan said with a smile.

Just as he was devouring his meal, Fang Yu’s phone in his pocket rang.

Fang Yu answered the call.

“Mr. Fang, something has happened…” Li Xiaomo’s anxious voice came from the other end.
