Chapter 503 This Is Impossible!

Ye Shengxue looked at Red Lotus and asked with confusion: “Mr. Fang, who is this…”

“She… let’s just call her Xiao Hong for now, I really don’t know her name,” said Fang Yu.

“Xiao Hong…” Ye Shengxue nodded.

“She looks about fifteen years old, but her mental age might only be three to five, and she can’t speak,” Fang Yu explained.

“Three to five years old… then isn’t she…” Ye Shengxue’s beautiful eyes widened, looking at Red Lotus with sympathy.

Such a beautiful girl, yet with such a significant disability, it was too unfortunate.

At this moment, Red Lotus also turned to look at Ye Shengxue.

Ye Shengxue smiled at her.

Red Lotus immediately turned her head away and grabbed Fang Yu’s arm.

Ye Shengxue felt somewhat awkward.

“So, are you willing to take care of her?” Fang Yu asked.

“Of course I am, I just don’t know if she’s willing…” Ye Shengxue said hesitantly.

“Just treat her like a young child, and once she gets familiar with you, how could she not be willing?” Fang Yu said, “You can live here from now on, cultivating while helping me take care of her.”

“Great!” Ye Shengxue’s eyes lit up.

She had wanted to stay by Fang Yu’s side, and now being able to live in the apartment with this reason made her very happy.

Fang Yu turned to look at Red Lotus, who was lowering her head, seeming somewhat unhappy.

Regarding Red Lotus, Fang Yu still had many questions.

Currently, he wasn’t even sure if Red Lotus’s condition was normal, or if this was her original state.

At this moment, the small golden dragon inside Fang Yu’s body was also very calm, circling around his dantian at a normal speed.

“I need to spend some effort to understand her,” Fang Yu thought to himself.

…

Fang Yu asked Ye Shengxue to take Red Lotus to bathe, during which Red Lotus was quite resistant.

But after an evening of adjustment, Red Lotus finally could accept Ye Shengxue standing beside her.

Late at night, Ye Shengxue took Red Lotus to sleep in the guest room.

As for Fang Yu, he sat in the living room, thinking about the events that had happened today.

The people from the Demon Cult wanted to kill him, obviously because of his rescue of Zhao Zinan a few days ago.

Over three thousand years ago, when the Demon Cult was at its peak, Fang Yu had never dealt with them.

Unexpectedly, more than three thousand years later today, they who shouldn’t exist in this era, encountered each other again.

This feeling was quite extraordinary.

“What exactly can Zhao Zinan’s body be used for?”

This was Fang Yu’s confusion.

The Demon Cult was an evil cultivation sect, they only did things for their own benefit.

Their attempt to kidnap Zhao Zinan must be related to Zhao Zinan’s unique physique.

And they referred to Zhao Zinan as a ‘vessel’, which indicated they wanted to use Zhao Zinan to contain something.

The clues about the Demon Cult ended here.

Recently, too many things had happened, and most of them were quite sudden.

However, in most matters, Fang Yu preferred to be an observer rather than a participant.

Except for one thing.

Purple Flame Palace.

According to Xia Xiaoying’s previous intelligence, Purple Flame Palace had sent people to Xiang City to gather information about Fang Yu.

This action indicated that those remnants of Purple Flame Palace already knew of Fang Yu’s existence.

Then their recent silence made perfect sense.

They feared Fang Yu would find them, so they could only hide like turtles.

The Nine States Country was too vast, and for Fang Yu to find them, relying solely on Xia Xiaoying was not enough.

“It seems I need to set up more informants.”

A cold light flashed in Fang Yu’s eyes.

…

The next day was Wednesday.

In the afternoon, Fang Yu arrived at the teaching building of the School of Literature at Nandu University.

Walking into the classroom, he found many students, incomparable to last week.

Many students had heard that the female demon was gone and returned to class.

By the time the bell rang, the classroom was basically full.

Fang Yu scanned the room and saw Tang Xiaorou making faces at him and waving her fist.

Fang Yu ignored Tang Xiaorou and looked to another side of the classroom.

He saw Cao Zhuang, whom he had met and mocked yesterday.

But what attracted Fang Yu’s attention wasn’t Cao Zhuang, but the male student sitting next to him.

This student wore simple cloth robes, with an extremely strange style of clothing that was completely out of place among the other students.

Without exaggeration, in today’s era, even seventy or eighty-year-old elderly men wouldn’t wear such antiquated clothes.

Fang Yu looked at this student, and the student returned a smile.

“Alright, class begins. As usual, you ask, I answer,” Fang Yu shifted his gaze and said.

“Chu Fan, this is the guy!”

Cao Zhuang leaned close to the ear of the student next to him and whispered.

Chu Fan nodded and said, “I know, he’s famous at school.”

“Help me with something…” Cao Zhuang’s eyes flashed with malice as he spoke.

“That’s not really appropriate, I have no grudge against him…” Chu Fan raised his eyebrows and shook his head.

Even without trying, their conversation was still heard by Fang Yu.

While Fang Yu was answering students’ questions one after another, Chu Fan lowered his head, writing something on the desk.

After Fang Yu finished answering the second student’s question, Chu Fan raised his hand.

Fang Yu slightly narrowed his eyes, gesturing for Chu Fan to stand up.

“Professor Fang, do you have any understanding of physiognomy?” Chu Fan asked.

“A little,” Fang Yu replied.

“Then I might be a bit ahead of you in this area, as my family has been physiognomists for generations,” Chu Fan said with a smile on his face, and continued, “Do you believe in fate, Professor Fang?”

“No,” Fang Yu answered.

“Perhaps I can change your perspective,” Chu Fan said, “Would Professor Fang be willing to…”

“Do you need my hair?” Fang Yu interrupted Chu Fan’s words and asked.

“…Yes,” Chu Fan was stunned for a moment, then answered.

Fang Yu forcefully pulled out one of his hairs, walked to Chu Fan, and handed it to him.

Chu Fan was somewhat dazed as he accepted the hair.

“Next, I need my desk mate to help me,” Chu Fan looked at Cao Zhuang beside him.

Cao Zhuang immediately stood up, giving Fang Yu a mocking glance.

“Hold this talisman and close your eyes,” Chu Fan handed the talisman on the desk to Cao Zhuang.

Cao Zhuang did as told and closed his eyes.

“With this hair, you can know my past and predict my future, right?” Fang Yu suddenly spoke.

Chu Fan looked up at Fang Yu, a flash of surprise in his eyes, and said, “Not just me, my desk mate can know too.”

Actually, the function of this talisman wasn’t just to learn about Fang Yu’s information; it had another name, called the Misfortune Talisman.

This was a talisman created by Chu Fan specifically to play tricks on people.

After obtaining Fang Yu’s hair and activating this talisman, he could alter Fang Yu’s fortune, making him unlucky for an entire day!

Chu Fan held Fang Yu’s hair between two fingers and placed it on the talisman paper in Cao Zhuang’s hand.

Fang Yu watched Chu Fan’s actions with a smile.

After pressing his fingers on the talisman paper, Chu Fan also closed his eyes.

The entire classroom was silent.

All students stared at Chu Fan and Cao Zhuang, wanting to see if this oddly dressed young man was truly as capable as he claimed.

After about ten seconds, Chu Fan opened his eyes, filled with disbelief.

His talisman had failed!

He couldn’t get any information from Fang Yu’s hair, nor could he make any changes to Fang Yu’s fortune!

What was going on?

Could there be an error in the talisman’s content?

That shouldn’t be possible. As someone from a family of physiognomists, he had practiced making talismans since childhood and wouldn’t make such a basic mistake.

“Well? What did you see?” Fang Yu asked.

Chu Fan’s mouth opened and closed, but no words came out.

He didn’t know what to say!

Because the talisman had malfunctioned!

The entire classroom fell into an awkward silence.

Beside him, Cao Zhuang also opened his eyes.

“And you? What did you learn?” Fang Yu looked at Cao Zhuang and asked with a smile.

Cao Zhuang’s expression froze, then his face turned bright red.

He knew nothing! After closing his eyes, he hadn’t felt anything!

Feeling the mocking gazes from around, Cao Zhuang wished he could find a hole to crawl into!

“This is impossible…” Chu Fan looked at Fang Yu standing before him, his eyes filled with shock.
