Chapter 364: Poor Performance

 

Hearing this, the person sitting opposite glanced around and then stood up, saying, “I have to go now; let’s talk next time.”

“Why leave? Can’t we just deal with those few people watching us?” the man said.

“I have other matters to attend to in Huaibei; I can’t expose myself.”

After saying this, the masked person turned and left.

The man also stood up, a terrifying killing intent flashing in his eyes.

He walked straight toward the restroom while keeping an eye on the two people following him from the corner of his eye.

“There are two of them; let’s take care of them together,” the man sneered as he entered the restroom.

At that moment, Fang Yu and Qin Lang were still in the elevator.

“Young Master, they’ve separated! The masked person has left the buffet; should we send someone to follow him?”

“No need; keep an eye on that man. If all goes well, we should be able to encounter the masked person,” Qin Lang replied.

As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator reached the third floor.

Fang Yu and Qin Lang stepped out of the elevator.

There were two other elevator doors nearby, but they were still showing higher floors.

Ahead was the entrance to the buffet.

If the masked person left the buffet, Qin Lang would be able to confront him directly.

Qin Lang and Fang Yu stood at the elevator entrance, waiting for the masked person to walk by.

However, after waiting for several seconds, no one came out of the buffet.

Qin Lang frowned and walked to the buffet entrance to peek inside.

Since it was already two in the afternoon, there weren’t many customers in the buffet.

The person described by his subordinate, wearing a mask and a hat, had distinct features and should be easy to spot.

But after looking around, Qin Lang couldn’t find anyone matching that description.

His two subordinates were sitting at tables very close to the restroom.

Just as Qin Lang was about to approach them to ask about the situation, one of his subordinates suddenly trembled violently and then collapsed onto the table!

Seeing this, Qin Lang’s expression changed dramatically.

Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and immediately released his spiritual sense, enveloping the entire buffet.

Then he saw the man standing in a restroom stall, performing some kind of sorcery.

Fang Yu directly infused his overwhelming spiritual sense into the man’s brain.

The man rolled his eyes back, instantly losing consciousness and collapsing to the ground, interrupting the sorcery he was performing.

“The person you’re looking for is in the first stall of the restroom,” Fang Yu said.

Qin Lang nodded and walked over to the other subordinate, instructing him to follow him into the restroom.

Fang Yu approached the subordinate who had collapsed on the table.

He placed his hand on the subordinate’s head, scanning his entire body with his spiritual sense.

He wasn’t dead; he had just suffered an attack on his soul and fainted from the shock.

After about ten seconds, Qin Lang and the subordinate carried the unconscious member of the Xuanming clan out of the restroom.

“Mr. Fang, what about my subordinate?” Qin Lang asked worriedly.

“He’s fine; just take him with you,” Fang Yu replied.

“And what about the person who met with this Xuanming clan member? How could he have disappeared?” Qin Lang’s expression turned serious.

Fang Yu expanded his spiritual sense to cover the entire third floor but still couldn’t find the so-called person wearing a hat and mask.

However, as his spiritual sense swept past the elevator, he suddenly spotted a figure.

How could she be here…

Fang Yu’s eyes flickered as he said to Qin Lang, “You take these two away first; I have a way to extract the information you want from him.”

“Okay,” Qin Lang nodded.

Fang Yu left the buffet and took the elevator downstairs.

When he reached the first floor, a girl in a white long dress was walking toward the hotel exit.

Fang Yu approached and directly tapped her on the shoulder.

The girl seemed startled, letting out a small yelp. When she turned to see it was Fang Yu, her expression relaxed, and she patted her chest, saying, “Phew… it’s you; you scared me.”

This girl had an exceptionally beautiful and pure face; it was Song Liuge.

Fang Yu looked at Song Liuge and smiled, “What are you doing here?”

“I’m here to see an old classmate; she also got into a university in Nandu, but she won’t start classes for a few days, so she has to stay in a hotel for now,” Song Liuge replied.

“Oh, your classmate must be quite wealthy; this five-star hotel isn’t cheap,” Fang Yu said.

“Haha, her family is indeed very rich; I’ve always envied her,” Song Liuge laughed.

After saying this, she looked at Fang Yu with curiosity and asked, “What about you? What are you doing here?”

“What else can you do in a hotel?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and countered.

Song Liuge looked confused and said, “There are many things you can do in a hotel…”

Then she seemed to realize what Fang Yu was implying, and her face flushed.

“So you have a girlfriend now,” Song Liuge said.

“No, I was just joking,” Fang Yu replied, looking at Song Liuge with a calm expression.

“Oh,” Song Liuge nodded.

As they talked, they slowly walked outside the hotel.

Once outside, Song Liuge turned to Fang Yu, hesitating to speak.

“What do you want to ask?” Fang Yu inquired.

“Um… I just feel like your gaze toward me today is a bit different; do you… misunderstand something?” Song Liuge bit her red lip and asked softly.

“What do you think I misunderstood?” Fang Yu smiled and countered.

“You, do you think I came to the hotel… for that kind of thing? I really didn’t…” Song Liuge’s face turned as red as an apple, her voice barely above a whisper.

“That’s not it; I just think you…” Fang Yu looked at Song Liuge, narrowing his eyes slightly.

“What do you think!?” Song Liuge raised her head, looking firmly at Fang Yu.

“Nothing,” Fang Yu smiled and didn’t continue.

Song Liuge bit her lip, tugging at her hair, making her beautiful locks a complete mess.

“I knew you misunderstood! You think I’m an indecent girl!” Song Liuge said, a bit flustered.

Fang Yu quietly watched Song Liuge without reacting.

“Come on! Let’s go back; I’ll take you upstairs to meet my old classmate. After you meet her, you should believe me, right?” Song Liuge grabbed Fang Yu’s hand and started to walk back.

“No need; my opinion of you doesn’t change anything. Why are you so anxious?” Fang Yu stood still and said.

Song Liuge turned her head to look at Fang Yu, her eyes slightly red, and said, “It’s important! I just don’t want you to misunderstand!”

“Your acting has improved a lot since we first met.”

Fang Yu thought to himself as he watched Song Liuge.

However, he didn’t want to expose her just yet.

He just needed to quietly observe her performance to understand what she truly wanted.

“Alright, no need to prove anything; I believe you,” Fang Yu said.

“Hmph! You clearly don’t believe me!” Song Liuge huffed, pouting.

A girl with such beauty has a strong impact on most men.

But unfortunately, in Fang Yu’s eyes, it was merely a not-so-subtle performance.

“Well, I have things to do; I’m leaving,” Fang Yu said, not wanting to prolong the conversation, and turned to leave.

“Don’t rush off! Classes started yesterday; aren’t you a guest professor? Why aren’t you going to class?” Song Liuge asked urgently.

“I think my class starts next week; you can come to audit it then,” Fang Yu replied.

“If you’re not just bragging, I’ll definitely go,” Song Liuge said.

“Then see you in class; I’m off,” Fang Yu said as he walked away.

Song Liuge watched Fang Yu’s departing figure, her beautiful eyes flickering as she fell into deep thought.

…

Fang Yu arrived at Qin Lang’s residence, located in the Crescent Lake villa area of Nandu.

The Xuanming clan member had already been brought to a secret room and was still unconscious.

Fang Yu extended his finger and gently tapped the man’s forehead.

A white light flashed, and the man jolted awake, opening his eyes.

Seeing the surroundings and the figures of Qin Lang and Fang Yu standing in front of him, the man was horrified, and the color drained from his face at a visible rate.

He knew he had fallen into their hands!

“W-What do you want from me!?” the man stammered.

Neither Qin Lang nor Fang Yu answered his question.

“Why did you bring me here? Let me go!” the man shouted in terror.

“Bang!”

Without saying a word, Qin Lang kicked the man in the face, knocking him to the ground.

The man cried out in pain, covering his face, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Qin Lang and Fang Yu.

In the buffet, he had originally planned to take care of the two people following him first before leaving the hotel.

But just as he was casting his spell, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head and lost consciousness.

He didn’t even know how he had fainted!

“Who ordered you to kill Qin Yimo?” Qin Lang asked coldly.

Hearing this question, the man’s expression changed dramatically!

This matter was a secret of the Xuanming clan; how could this man possibly know!?

The last time he had cursed Qin Yimo, he had left no trace!

How did Qin Lang and Fang Yu find him!?

“Bang!”

As the man was in a state of panic, Qin Lang kicked him again, sending him flying.

Blood poured from the man’s mouth, and his body trembled violently.

“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about! I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

Qin Lang’s expression was icy as he stepped forward, preparing to kick him again.

“Let me handle this,” Fang Yu said at that moment.

Qin Lang immediately stepped aside.

Fang Yu approached, squatted down, and touched the man’s forehead, sending his spiritual sense into the man’s soul.

Soon, he saw fragments of the man’s memories.

The earliest memory fragment was of him talking with the person wearing a hat and mask in the buffet.

Seeing the person’s eyes directly confirmed Fang Yu’s suspicions.

It was indeed her.

The saintess of the Witch God Sect… meeting with a Xuanming clan member to discuss cooperation. What were they planning to collaborate on?

Fang Yu pondered while preparing to continue viewing the memories.

But just then, the Xuanming clan member, who was in a dazed state, suddenly emitted a wave of black mist!

“Bang!”

Then, a fist shot out from the black mist, striking Fang Yu squarely in the chest!
