Chapter 335 Saint!
After confirming this point, Tang Xiaorou almost burst into tears.
No one could see this man, which meant that no one could help her!
According to the typical horror movie plot, she would eventually be killed by the ghost when she was all alone…
Looking at Tang Xiaorou with tears welling up in her eyes, Fang Yu found it rather amusing.
“Let’s pay the bill and go,” Fang Yu said.
Hearing Fang Yu’s voice, Tang Xiaorou finally snapped out of her internal world of fear.
“Ok, okay.” Tang Xiaorou called the waiter, took out several bills from her handbag, and handed them to the server.
After that, she hurriedly got up and pulled Fang Yu toward the exit.
She felt the restaurant was eerily gloomy, making her increasingly uncomfortable! Now she just wanted to leave quickly.
Fang Yu was pulled out of the restaurant by Tang Xiaorou, and they walked toward the sidewalk outside.
It was two in the afternoon, with the sun high in the sky and the temperature quite warm.
But Tang Xiaorou felt cold all over.
She held Fang Yu’s hand, walking aimlessly forward.
What should I do? What should I do!?
Tang Xiaorou didn’t even dare to look back, afraid she would see that man still following behind!
“Where do you want to go?” After walking some distance, Fang Yu asked from behind her.
Tang Xiaorou stopped and turned to look at Fang Yu.
For her right now, Fang Yu was her only reliable support.
“Fang Yu, I need to tell you something, and you must believe me,” Tang Xiaorou said, her face pale.
“What is it?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
“Just, just now in the restaurant, when I asked you…” Tang Xiaorou said with a trembling voice.
While speaking, she inadvertently glanced behind Fang Yu and saw a black figure.
It was that man!
Tang Xiaorou could no longer hold back. She screamed, buried her head in Fang Yu’s chest, and tightly wrapped her arms around him.
“Fang Yu, I, I’ve encountered a ghost!” Tang Xiaorou sobbed.
Tang Xiaorou’s entire body was shaking violently, clearly terrified to the extreme.
“This girl doesn’t have a strong psychological tolerance,” Fang Yu thought to himself.
“Fang Yu, believe me, there really is a ghost…” Tang Xiaorou cried.
“Of course I believe you. Ghosts do exist in this world. However, the man you saw is not a ghost,” Fang Yu said calmly.
“Huh?” Tang Xiaorou looked up at Fang Yu with tear-filled eyes.
Fang Yu gently pushed Tang Xiaorou away, turned to look at the man in black standing not far away, and said, “Is it fun to scare people using magical techniques?”
The man had thought Fang Yu couldn’t see him.
But Fang Yu’s words made his expression change.
“How can he see me? I clearly used the Concealment Technique!” The man was terrified.
But he quickly regained his composure.
The Concealment Technique was a secret method taught to him by the Holy Maiden, it couldn’t possibly fail!
The other party was just bluffing!
As long as he didn’t make a sound, he wouldn’t expose himself!
“You still think I can’t see you? Fine then.” Fang Yu’s lips curled into a mocking smile as his hand reached forward with a grabbing motion.
The man immediately felt a tremendous force pulling him forward!
“Thud!”
The man fell face-first in front of Fang Yu, with blood streaming from his nose.
He looked up to see Fang Yu smiling at him.
“Having fun?” Fang Yu asked.
The man struggled to stand up but couldn’t move an inch!
A force was pressing down on him heavily, and it was getting stronger!
At this point, the man realized he had messed with the wrong person!
The Fang Yu before him could truly see him, and his abilities far surpassed his own!
He struggled to lift his head and pleaded, “Master, I was just being foolish for a moment, please let me go…”
“Let you go? Ask her if she agrees.”
Fang Yu turned to look at the stunned Tang Xiaorou.
Tang Xiaorou still hadn’t processed what was happening.
Hadn’t Fang Yu been unable to see this man before? How did he suddenly take action?
“You scared her until her eyes were swollen from crying. How could I possibly let you go easily?” Fang Yu smiled.
As he spoke, the pressure on the man increased by several degrees!
The man let out a painful cry.
Since it was midday, there was nobody else passing by on this street.
Therefore, the man’s cries had no effect.
“Master, I’m an officer of the Shamanic God Cult. Please, for the sake of the Bishop, spare me this once!”
The man knew that if this continued, he would be severely injured if not killed!
So, he tried everything to escape.
If Fang Yu happened to know about the Shamanic God Cult, he might spare him!
Indeed, after hearing the man’s words, the pressure on his body suddenly lessened.
“You’re from the Shamanic God Cult?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
“Yes! Yes! I’m an officer from the Southern Capital branch of the Shamanic God Cult. My name is Liang Wanhao,” the man nodded repeatedly.
“Southern Capital branch…” Fang Yu pondered for a moment.
Liang Wanhao knew his words had worked.
Fang Yu indeed knew about the Shamanic God Cult!
“Master… I truly know my mistake. Please, for the sake of the Shamanic God Cult, let me go,” Liang Wanhao continued to press his advantage.
For the sake of the Shamanic God Cult?
Fang Yu’s face broke into a smile as he said, “Alright, just answer a few questions for me, and I’ll let you go.”
“Good! Good! I will answer everything I know!” Liang Wanhao’s face lit up.
“Where is your Southern Capital branch located?” Fang Yu asked.
“It’s, it’s…” Liang Wanhao’s expression changed.
He hadn’t expected Fang Yu’s first question to be about information that the cult strictly forbade sharing with outsiders!
Especially in the last two or three months, the prohibition had become even stricter.
But if he didn’t answer Fang Yu’s question now, he would suffer greatly!
“It’s in a mountain on the outskirts of Southern Capital!”
After deliberating, Liang Wanhao gave a vague answer.
Fang Yu knew Liang Wanhao was being evasive, but he continued to ask, “Then where is the headquarters of your Shamanic God Cult?”
“This, this I truly don’t know… I’m just an officer in the branch, my position in the cult is very low…” Liang Wanhao said with a pained expression.
“Alright, last question, why were you pretending to be a ghost to scare people?” Fang Yu asked.
Hearing this question, Liang Wanhao instinctively glanced at Tang Xiaorou standing beside Fang Yu.
To be honest, his act of scaring Tang Xiaorou was completely spontaneous.
Initially, he just wanted to admire Tang Xiaorou’s beauty.
But when Tang Xiaorou tried to find a waiter to drive him away, he decided to use the Concealment Technique he had recently learned.
The effect after concealment was very significant; Tang Xiaorou was scared out of her wits.
After that, Liang Wanhao’s interest was piqued, and he followed Tang Xiaorou, hoping to find an opportunity when she was alone to take her…
But this thought could not be revealed under any circumstances.
The Fang Yu before him, if not this girl’s boyfriend, was probably her bodyguard or something similar.
Revealing his true intentions would definitely lead to torture.
“I, I just learned the invisibility technique and wanted to try it out. I absolutely had no malicious intent…” Liang Wanhao said cautiously.
“Who taught you this technique?” Fang Yu asked.
“It was, it was the Holy Maiden of our cult,” Liang Wanhao answered.
“Holy Maiden?” Fang Yu frowned.
Liang Wanhao realized he had let something slip again.
However, Fang Yu didn’t pursue this matter further, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
“Master, I’ve answered all your questions. Can you let me go now?” Liang Wanhao asked hopefully.
“Of course not,” Fang Yu shook his head. “None of your three answers were truthful. You still want to leave?”
As he spoke, Fang Yu crouched down.
“I…” Liang Wanhao’s face changed dramatically as he was about to speak.
At this moment, Fang Yu extended his right index finger and touched Liang Wanhao’s forehead.
A flash of white light emanated from his fingertip.
Liang Wanhao’s eyes immediately became vacant.
Fang Yu had entered Liang Wanhao’s soul to search through his memories.
Soon, Fang Yu saw scene after scene.
Apart from some trivial life matters, the key memory points were Liang Wanhao’s memories of joining the Shamanic God Cult and a recent internal meeting.
The first memory segment had no value, but the second memory segment caught Fang Yu’s attention.
In this memory, Liang Wanhao stood among a group of followers dressed like him.
In front of them stood two people in purple robes.
Between these two purple-robed individuals stood another figure.
This person wore a pure white robe and had their back to everyone.
Judging by the figure, this person was female.
“The Holy Maiden will be executing a very important task in Southern Capital recently. Everyone take note, during this period, you must not expose your identities! No matter where you are or who you face! Unless the other party is a member of our cult, you must not reveal anything about our organization!” one of the purple-robed individuals said.
“Additionally, the Holy Maiden may sometimes need your assistance. Whatever command she issues, you must execute immediately! Do not be negligent!” the purple-robed person continued.
“Understood!”
Everyone present responded in unison.
“Good! Next, the Holy Maiden will teach you a technique. You must listen carefully…” the purple-robed person continued.
After that, the Holy Maiden began to speak.
Her voice sounded neutral, as if disguised.
And what she said was all about the incantations for the Concealment Technique.
After teaching this technique, the Holy Maiden left.
From beginning to end, she never turned around to reveal her face.
After viewing this memory, Fang Yu casually scanned through Liang Wanhao’s other memories.
From these fragmented memories, Fang Yu learned that there were many so-called officers like Liang Wanhao in the Southern Capital branch.
These officers were all prominent figures in the secular world.
Some were company CEOs, others were elites in the financial industry…
For instance, Liang Wanhao was the owner of a renovation company.
These officers were spread across various industries, and their combined influence was significant.
This was probably why the purple-robed person mentioned that the Holy Maiden might need these people’s help.
Fang Yu erased Liang Wanhao’s memories of today and then withdrew his consciousness.
He stood up and kicked Liang Wanhao away.
Liang Wanhao fell to the ground, immediately passing out with blood all over his face.
“Let’s go.”
Fang Yu said to Tang Xiaorou as he turned to leave.
Holy Maiden…
As Fang Yu walked, he recalled the white-robed figure from Liang Wanhao’s memory.
This figure gave him a strangely familiar feeling.
Who was it?
After walking a few steps, Fang Yu’s furrowed brow suddenly relaxed.
So it was her.
