Chapter 236: News About the Purple Flame Palace
Sensing killing intent, Fang Yu frowned.
Who was this woman?
The aura emanating from her was peculiar, with only a small portion belonging to that of a martial artist.
The majority of it was rather special, like some kind of contained energy.
Purple hair, pupils glowing with a purple light…
Fang Yu observed Violet while pondering.
Meanwhile, Violet had already shifted her gaze and slowly walked downstairs.
At this moment, the first floor remained deathly silent, with no one able to speak except for Zhu Chao, who was still kowtowing and begging for mercy.
It’s worth noting that the man who was beaten bloody and lying motionless was the son of Jiangnan’s most prominent wealthy businessman!
And Zhu Chao, who was kneeling and crying for mercy, was the son of Jiangnan’s underground power broker!
These two young masters were already at the top of Jiangnan’s second-generation rich circle!
But now, their fates were more miserable than each other!
Before tonight, no one could have imagined the scene of Dong Zhenyu being beaten unconscious and Zhu Chao kneeling on the ground crying and begging for mercy!
The security guards of the Corus Supercar Club had arrived early, but after witnessing Fang Yu’s strength, they dared not do anything.
Try to stop him?
Even Dong Zhenyu’s master-level bodyguard was sent flying with one punch from Fang Yu, fate unknown – wouldn’t they be seeking death if they stepped forward?
Fang Yu glanced at Zhu Chao, then turned to walk toward Li Bingyan and Fat Liu.
After Fang Yu appeared, Li Bingyan and Fat Liu felt much more relaxed, no longer feeling the previous fear and tension.
Seeing what happened to Dong Zhenyu, Xiao Chang’an, and Zhu Chao, both felt deeply satisfied, as if a weight had been lifted.
But at the same time, they were also worried.
These three weren’t ordinary people, and each had powerful family forces behind them.
After being beaten like this, their family forces would surely seek retribution.
“…Quickly, get someone to send the injured to the hospital… everyone, don’t panic, our speed race will proceed as planned.”
At this moment, a pale-faced man with sweat all over his forehead ran out from the crowd.
He was a manager at the Corus Supercar Club and the person in charge of tonight’s speed race.
He had been in the crowd since Dong Zhenyu demanded Li Bingyan and Fat Liu kneel down to wipe his shoes and apologize.
However, he couldn’t find an appropriate opportunity to mediate.
After all, Dong Zhenyu’s expression was very dark, clearly showing his anger.
If he had stepped forward to mediate at that time, he might have drawn fire upon himself.
Li Bingyan and Fat Liu’s status was far below that of Dong Zhenyu and Zhu Chao, so there was no need to risk offending these two young masters by trying to stop them.
So he stood in the crowd, waiting to see how things would develop.
But the subsequent development of events exceeded his expectations, and he could no longer remain a bystander.
If he didn’t step forward to handle the aftermath, he might lose his job.
After taking a close look at Dong Zhenyu’s miserable state, the manager’s face grew even paler.
This was the son of Jiangnan’s richest man, and he was beaten like this at the Corus Supercar Club. If Dong Zhiwei were to investigate, the club would surely be implicated.
At that time, he, as the manager in charge, would certainly have to take responsibility.
“Why did this have to happen during my shift?” the manager lamented internally.
After the manager gave his orders, Dong Zhenyu and the other injured were all sent to the hospital.
As for Dong Zhenyu’s master-level personal bodyguard, he was found on the road dozens of meters outside the building, unconscious, with a large dent in his chest and blood filling his mouth.
But he was still breathing and not dead.
However, the fact that a martial arts master took just one punch and ended up in such a state still sent chills down people’s spines.
Just how terrifying was the power of Fang Yu’s punch?
Only after everyone was sent to the hospital did the atmosphere slightly ease.
However, after experiencing the recent events, everyone’s gaze toward Fang Yu was filled with awe.
“Boss, why don’t we leave?” On the second-floor sofa, Li Bingyan was restless, afraid that the forces behind Dong Zhenyu and Zhu Chao would return with people to cause trouble.
“Leave what? Didn’t we come to watch the race? Why leave before it even starts?” Fang Yu asked in return.
“But…” Li Bingyan’s face was pale as he hesitated to continue.
“Don’t worry, they don’t have the guts to bring people back to cause trouble,” Fang Yu said calmly.
The reason he had been so ruthless downstairs earlier was mainly because of that phone call from Xia Xiaoying, which had stirred up his killing intent.
Dong Zhenyu and the others just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
“I’ve gathered intelligence that in the past two months, there have been frequent occurrences of bodies burned to charcoal in Nandu, Huaibei.”
“And each death location was in a surveillance blind spot, indicating that the killer was consciously avoiding detection, not wanting to reveal their identity.”
“But after thorough investigation, using all surveillance footage from across Nandu, we finally found a video clip that captured this person’s figure and killing method.”
“I’m sending you that surveillance footage now,” Xia Xiaoying said.
Shortly after, Fang Yu received a video.
The video’s resolution was quite low, and the colors weren’t vivid.
One could vaguely see that this was in an alley, with two figures standing there, seemingly in confrontation.
Both figures were quite blurry.
Then, both figures moved, and suddenly, several flames rose from one of the figures!
Even though the video resolution was low, the color of those flames was still visible.
Purple flames! Swirling around the body!
The secret technique of the Purple Flame Palace!
This figure must be a disciple of the Purple Flame Palace, possibly one of the fellow disciples Xiao Chen mentioned!
After watching this video, Fang Yu could confirm.
The person he had previously seen who mastered the Purple Flame Palace’s secret technique was not an isolated case.
The Purple Flame Palace indeed hadn’t been wiped out! They had used some method to survive until today, and even planned to make a full revival in some way!
Thinking of this, Fang Yu’s killing intent surged.
The disciples of the Heavenly Way Sect had long turned to dust.
But the Purple Flame Palace still survived in this world!
This was unacceptable to Fang Yu.
As long as the Purple Flame Palace wasn’t completely dead, the revenge from back then wasn’t complete!
“Can you help me find this person?” Fang Yu asked.
“There’s no way for now. This person has killed over thirty martial artists in the past two months, and the Nandu Martial Arts Association has sent many people to search for them, but without results. Moreover, in the past half month, this person suddenly stopped killing and completely disappeared,” Xia Xiaoying said.
Fang Yu’s expression was cold as he thought for a moment, then said, “Then help me keep an eye on the Nandu area. If you discover any more charred bodies, notify me immediately.”
“Alright,” Xia Xiaoying agreed.
…
The sky gradually darkened.
At seven twenty in the evening, everyone walked out of the club and came to the Nine Rings Mountain track.
The monthly speed race hosted by the Corus Supercar Club was about to begin.
Although there had been a small incident earlier, it didn’t affect the continuation of the race.
“The speed race is about to begin, everyone can prepare. We’ll start promptly at seven thirty!” the manager announced.
Hearing this, many people got into their supercars, started their engines, and began warming up their vehicles.
Fang Yu and his two companions stood at the club entrance, watching one supercar after another drive onto the track.
Li Bingyan’s eyes were full of envy as he said, “If only I had a supercar of this caliber, I could race on the track too.”
“Your family is so rich, why don’t you ask your dad to buy you one?” Fat Liu asked from beside him.
Li Bingyan glanced at Fat Liu and said, “You think it’s that simple? Just the maintenance for a ten-million-level supercar costs a lot every year. My dad is a frugal person, he won’t buy me one.”
“Besides, compared to most people here, my family isn’t really rich, we’re just middle class.”
“Middle class? If you’re just middle class, then what about people like me and Fang Yu? Wouldn’t we be considered extremely poor?” Fat Liu said with wide eyes.
“Hehe, you might be poor, but with Boss’s abilities, making money would be easy for him. Though Boss doesn’t need to make money, with Tang Xiaorou being such a wealthy young lady…” Li Bingyan was speaking with a smile, but suddenly stopped.
His attention was completely drawn to an enchanting figure before him.
