Chapter 366: Do They Resemble Siblings?
“That’s right, your task from now on is to investigate the Witch God Cult,” Fang Yu said as he stood up. “The Xuanming Clan is currently negotiating cooperation with the Witch God Cult, and understanding what they specifically want to do together is crucial.”
“If there are any significant developments, feel free to contact me.”
Qin Lang also stood up, slightly bowing as he said, “I understand, Mr. Fang.”
Fang Yu nodded and then left Qin Lang’s home.
…
When Fang Yu returned to his apartment and opened the door, he saw a small figure standing on the balcony.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Ling’er turned her head and, upon seeing Fang Yu, showed a look of confusion.
Since Ling’er had only seen Fang Yu in disguise before, she couldn’t recognize his true self at all.
Yet, inexplicably, Ling’er felt a sense of familiarity.
“You, you are Dao Tian?” Ling’er asked hesitantly.
“Yes, my real name is Fang Yu,” Fang Yu replied.
“Fang… Yu?” For some reason, Ling’er suddenly felt a stir in her heart.
“When I met you before, I was in disguise, so it’s normal that you couldn’t recognize me,” Fang Yu said.
Ling’er came back to her senses and nodded.
Even though his appearance was different, Fang Yu’s voice and aura felt very familiar to Ling’er.
“Fang Yu, where are my master and senior sister?” Ling’er asked nervously.
“They should be fine,” Fang Yu said.
“Should be?” Linger’s expression darkened.
She still clearly remembered that terrifying masked person.
“Where are we now? I need to find my master and the world!” Ling’er said anxiously.
“If nothing unexpected happens, they should be on their way here, so you don’t need to go,” Fang Yu said.
“What about that masked person!? If…” Linger’s face turned pale.
“That person is already dead,” Fang Yu said.
“Dead!?” Linger’s expression froze.
“Yes, I killed him,” Fang Yu said.
“Are you… serious?” Ling’er hurriedly ran to Fang Yu and looked up at him.
“Of course it’s true. Otherwise, how could you possibly be here?” Fang Yu said.
Ling’er stared at Fang Yu’s face, confirming that he wasn’t lying, and then sighed in relief, placing her small hand on her chest as she said, “As long as my master and senior sister are okay…”
“When did you wake up?” Fang Yu asked.
“I just woke up less than five minutes ago,” Ling’er replied.
Her face was still a bit pale.
“How do you feel?” Fang Yu asked.
“I just feel a bit weak; I don’t know why. Maybe I’m just hungry?” Ling’er said, her obsidian-like eyes rolling around.
After confirming that Guo Cuiyun and Jiang Ruolan were fine, her mood improved significantly.
“Hungry? There should be a few pieces of bread left in the fridge; you can go get some,” Fang Yu said.
“Okay! Where’s the fridge?” Ling’er asked, her face lighting up.
Fang Yu pointed her in the right direction, and Ling’er immediately jogged over.
“By the way, bring me a piece too,” Fang Yu said.
Ling’er reached the fridge, opened the lower door, and found it completely empty.
Ling’er wrinkled her nose and tiptoed to open the upper door, but still saw nothing.
“Fang Yu, you’re lying to me; there’s nothing in the fridge,” Ling’er returned to Fang Yu, her small face scrunched up, looking angry.
“Really?” Fang Yu was taken aback.
Liu Liansha had clearly put a few pieces of bread in the fridge; how could they be gone?
Could it be that Liu Liansha ate them at some point?
Ling’er held her stomach, looking pitiful as she said, “Fang Yu, I’m really very hungry.”
“Alright, since you still owe me a meal, let’s go out to eat,” Fang Yu said as he stood up.
Ling’er was taken aback, then quickly reacted, saying, “But, but I don’t have any money.”
“I can pay for you first, but you have to pay me back later,” Fang Yu said.
“Oh, I see…” Ling’er showed hesitation, then gritted her teeth and said, “Deal!”
Thus, Fang Yu took Ling’er out of the apartment and to the nearest shopping center, which had various restaurants.
Ling’er clearly had never been to such a bustling city before, looking around with wide eyes, filled with excitement.
“Fang Yu, what’s that? It looks so fun.”
“Fang Yu, they’re selling ice cream over there! I had it once before, and it was so delicious…”
“Fang Yu…”
Fang Yu walked beside Ling’er, quietly observing her every move.
A sense of déjà vu surfaced in his mind.
It felt like many years ago, he had walked down the street with Ling’er, and she had held his hand, asking questions about everything…
This bizarre and elusive feeling made Fang Yu quite uncomfortable.
Ling’er didn’t notice Fang Yu’s emotions and continued to look around cheerfully.
Walking together, Fang Yu and Ling’er resembled a brother taking his little sister out shopping.
Due to Ling’er’s extremely cute appearance and her slightly ancient-style robe, she attracted the attention of many passersby.
“That little girl over there is so cute.”
“Where did she get that outfit? I want to buy a set for my daughter too…”
“Isn’t the sister way prettier than the brother?”
Many passersby whispered among themselves, and some even stopped to take sneaky photos with their phones.
At this moment, Fang Yu finally noticed Ling’er’s outfit, which indeed stood out.
Not far ahead was a children’s clothing store.
Fang Yu took Ling’er inside.
“Pick out a set of clothes you like; you can’t wear that anymore,” Fang Yu said.
Ling’er saw various clothes and her eyes sparkled.
Girls have a natural love for beauty, but in the sect, she could only wear a uniform white robe, which she had long grown tired of.
“Fang Yu, I don’t have any money,” Ling’er said, suppressing her excitement as she looked up at Fang Yu.
“Same as before, I’ll pay for you first, and you can pay me back later,” Fang Yu said.
“Then wouldn’t I owe you a lot of money…” Ling’er hesitated.
“Hurry up; once you’re done buying, we can go eat,” Fang Yu urged.
In the end, Ling’er couldn’t resist the temptation of the colorful clothes in front of her and decided to buy a set.
After selecting for about ten minutes, she chose a set of clothes with cartoon patterns.
After changing into the clothes in the fitting room, Ling’er walked out, completely transformed.
She was already delicate and cute, and in the children’s outfit, she looked even more playful and adorable.
“Just wear it out like this,” Fang Yu said after paying.
…
Five minutes later, Fang Yu and Ling’er sat in a Western restaurant, having ordered their food.
After putting on her new clothes, Ling’er was in a great mood, smiling brightly.
“Why did the masked person attack you?” Fang Yu asked, taking a sip of water.
Upon hearing this question, Ling’er’s expression immediately changed.
The masked person had left her with a huge psychological shadow.
Before losing consciousness, she had almost fallen into a state of despair.
“He, he seemed to say… he wanted to refine me into a human avatar,” Ling’er recalled with difficulty.
“Human avatar?” Fang Yu frowned.
Ling’er looked at Fang Yu, her eyes filled with confusion, and asked, “Fang Yu, how did you… defeat that person? He was really strong; I couldn’t even move in front of him.”
“You can ask your cousin about that later,” Fang Yu said. “Anyway, I defeated him.”
“What about the good stuff in the Flame Mountain Range? Did you get it?” Ling’er remembered this matter and asked.
“I got it,” Fang Yu replied.
“What is it!?” Ling’er asked excitedly.
“There are quite a few things, but you wouldn’t understand if I told you,” Fang Yu smiled.
“Just tell me!” Ling’er pouted.
Just as Fang Yu was about to speak, his phone in his pocket rang.
It was a call from Xia Xiaoying.
Fang Yu answered the call.
“Fang Yu, are you in the Flame Mountain Range now?” Xia Xiaoying asked.
“I just returned to Nandu not long ago,” Fang Yu said.
“…You’ve already returned to Nandu!?” Xia Xiaoying exclaimed.
“Yeah,” Fang Yu replied.
“Today, the Flame Mountain Range is very lively; several sensational events have occurred… all related to you, right?” Xia Xiaoying quickly regained her composure and said.
“Probably. What do you need me for?” Fang Yu asked.
“Well, recently, there have been violent and bloodthirsty martial artists appearing in several places in Huaibei,” Xia Xiaoying said seriously. “They are powerful, take pleasure in killing, and their methods are extremely cruel… Moreover, according to witnesses, most of these martial artists have ugly appearances and twisted bodies… they look like monsters.”
