Chapter 708 Burning Bridges After Crossing the River!
But even if she did so, it wouldn’t matter much.
Because that mark was extremely hidden, she simply couldn’t find where it was located.
“When I say it’s removed, then it’s removed. You don’t need to doubt this point,” Fang Yu said calmly.
Violet raised her head, about to say something.
At that moment, the pager in her inner pocket began to vibrate.
Violet reached for the pager and held it to her ear.
“What is it?” Violet asked.
Upon hearing what the other person said, Violet’s expression suddenly changed!
“…I understand. We’ll discuss the specifics when I return to base.”
Violet put down the pager and stood in place, her eyes still filled with shock.
“What’s the situation?” Fang Yu asked.
“Gary… has publicly announced cooperation with the Death Spirit Clan. And… he’s invited various powers from the Western Region to attend his so-called celebration tomorrow,” Violet said.
“Isn’t the Death Spirit Clan notorious in the Western Region? How could this Gary be so bold? Isn’t this essentially putting himself and the Death Spirit Clan on the fire to roast?” Bai Ran asked puzzledly.
Violet and Fang Yu remained silent.
Following normal logic, this was indeed obvious reasoning.
But Gary was cunning and sly, and wouldn’t do something that would bring destruction upon himself.
If he dared to do this, he must have confidence.
“I need to go,” Violet said to Fang Yu.
Although she wasn’t sure if the mark on her body was truly removed, the current situation didn’t allow her to dwell on it.
She needed to return to the organization first and clarify the whole matter.
“We’ll go with you,” Fang Yu said.
Violet frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”
“I need to talk to the one who monopolized the eight spiritual veins, to see if it can spit out one or two,” Fang Yu said. “Coming all this way, it wouldn’t make sense for me to return empty-handed, right?”
Violet stood in place, her face grim, considering whether to bring Fang Yu back to the base.
Strictly speaking, she and Fang Yu were enemies. Even if they weren’t enemies now, they couldn’t be called friends.
“You can refuse to take me, but you can’t stop me from following you,” Fang Yu added.
Violet bit her teeth, clenching her fists.
“Rest assured, when I get there, I won’t do anything and will try to speak as little as possible,” Fang Yu said. “I just need to gather some intelligence.”
“Remember what you said,” Violet said through gritted teeth, then turned to leave.
Moments later, the three left the base and returned to the surface.
The private jet landed again and took them away.
…
Northern Western Region.
Due to climate issues, this place was in a perpetual state of ice and snow, with very few residents.
But who would have thought that a castle would be located in such a place.
The outer walls of the castle were covered with a thick layer of snow, concealing its original appearance.
At this moment, inside the castle, in the first-floor hall, stood dozens of pitch-black figures.
They had no limbs, hovering in the air, with faces like skulls.
“Whoosh…”
They stood in place, their lower bodies swaying slightly, making strange sounds.
On the platform ahead stood two figures.
One was Gary, and the other was a Death Spirit wrapped in a black robe!
Unlike the other Death Spirits below, its form was much larger.
“I’ve already spread the news. Tomorrow… perhaps today, many people will come knocking…” Gary said with a mocking smile.
“Well done,” the Death Spirit standing beside him uttered in an extremely hoarse voice. “My Death Spirit subordinates are all desperate with hunger. I hope you can provide enough food.”
“Rest assured, they will definitely come, I guarantee you that,” Gary said, narrowing his eyes slightly. “They will rush to arrive, attempting to eliminate you and become heroes of the Western Region… I know exactly how these people think.”
“These humans are arrogant! They must think they can eradicate us this time! But they don’t know… I, the King of Death Spirits, have returned!” the Death Spirit beside him declared in an elevated tone.
“Death Spirit King… Today I have given you all the energy cores and brought you so much food… You can fulfill what you promised me, right?” Gary asked.
Hearing this, the Death Spirit King turned to look at Gary.
Gary immediately felt a pressure bearing down on his shoulders.
“Bang!”
Gary fell to his knees, prostrating himself on the ground, trembling as he said, “Death Spirit King, I didn’t mean to doubt you…”
“Once I’ve completely devoured that energy and my subordinates are satiated… your request will be nothing. But before then, don’t mention it again. I don’t like being rushed, especially by someone who is still just a lowly human,” the Death Spirit King said slowly.
“I understand! I understand!” Gary repeatedly kowtowed.
“Rise, use your brain, and prepare everything for us,” the Death Spirit King walked toward the back.
Gary remained prostrate on the ground for nearly a minute before raising his head.
By then, the Death Spirit King had already left the hall.
Gary stood up, his eyes filled with cold ferocity.
Just as he had anticipated, the Death Spirit King, after gaining power, indeed wanted to renege on their agreement.
For this situation, Gary had already made backup plans.
If the Death Spirit King was unwilling to honor his promise, then Gary would use his own methods to accomplish it…
By then, the Death Spirit King would know how severe the consequences of betrayal could be!
…
The private jet carrying Fang Yu and the others landed on an extremely secluded island.
This was Violet’s organization’s base.
As an assassin organization, the location of the base had to remain secret.
Except for core members, outsiders absolutely could not know. Anyone in the organization who leaked this secret would be eliminated.
Therefore, when Violet brought Fang Yu and Bai Ran back to the base, it drew the attention of many personnel.
They hadn’t expected that Violet, as the leader of the Violet organization, would openly violate the rules!
But a leader is a leader.
Even though they were filled with doubt and confusion, no one dared to speak up, only watching as Violet led Fang Yu and Bai Ran to the more central office building.
Violet naturally understood the meaning behind these gazes.
But at this moment, Violet had no choice.
Rules could only constrain those whose strength remained within the boundaries of those rules, and could not constrain beings who exceeded this category.
And Fang Yu was clearly someone who couldn’t be confined within the rules.
If he insisted on coming to the base, Violet’s refusal would be useless.
After entering the office building, Violet led Fang Yu and Bai Ran directly into a conference room.
At this time, four people were already seated at the conference table.
Fang Yu had met two of them before and had even fought with them.
The red-haired man Clark, nicknamed Sword Demon. The other was the withered-looking elder Roderick, nicknamed Living Dead.
The other two were leaders of two other regions within Violet’s organization.
‘Electric Ghost’ Edward and ‘Iron Man’ Claude.
When the four saw Fang Yu, their expressions changed, and they stood up.
Because they all recognized Fang Yu’s face!
This person who had once given their Violet organization such a headache was actually at their base? And brought back by Violet?
At that moment, everyone in the conference room thought Violet had been taken hostage.
“Hello everyone, relax, I’m not here to cause trouble,” Fang Yu smiled.
The four maintained their stern expressions, staring intently at Fang Yu, their auras subtly emanating.
“He’s not an enemy, he’s just here to observe. Everyone, please sit down,” Violet said at this point.
“Fang Yu? Here to observe!?” After hearing Violet’s words, her four capable deputies looked even more shocked.
For a meeting at their level, even people within the organization didn’t have the right to observe.
Yet Violet had brought Fang Yu and another man, saying they would observe?
Wasn’t this a joke!?
“Lady Violet, I don’t understand your meaning,” Roderick stared intently at Fang Yu and said in a deep voice. “This Fang Yu previously disrupted our operations… He’s already our enemy, and you’ve brought him back…”
“Silence!” Violet said coldly.
The four changed their expressions.
“I’ve made myself very clear. Ignore him. Letting him observe is my decision,” Violet said coldly.
