Chapter 745: I Want Him Dead!
“What are you standing there for?” At that moment, footsteps echoed in the private room.
The woman who had led Fang Yu upstairs earlier walked in from outside.
But now, her demeanor had completely changed.
She had a streak of black shadow at the corner of her eyebrows, giving her an ominous and fierce appearance.
“Lady Snake.” Everyone in the room bowed to this woman in unison.
Snake Lady looked at Fang Yu, her green snake-like eyes gleaming with extremely dangerous cold light.
“I was careless. I didn’t realize that little girl beside you possessed such abilities,” Snake Lady flicked her red tongue and said coldly.
“Your Demon Cult’s headquarters is in North City, isn’t it?” Fang Yu smiled.
“Our headquarters is in a place you’ll never find,” Snake Lady replied.
“You’re wrong. If I wanted to find it, I could do so very quickly,” Fang Yu said.
“You’re overlooking one prerequisite,” Snake Lady’s body suddenly released a green gas as she spoke, “You need to be alive to leave this place.”
As the green gas was released, the Demon Cult members who had surrounded Fang Yu in the room immediately retreated, backing out of the room.
Now only Fang Yu and Snake Lady remained in the room.
“Poison gas?” Fang Yu’s expression remained unchanged.
When the green gas approached and touched Fang Yu’s body, it made a ‘sizzling’ sound.
This green gas had strong corrosive properties!
Although it couldn’t harm Fang Yu, it could easily corrode his clothes.
At this moment, without making any movement, a faint golden light emanated from Fang Yu’s body, just like when he faced the Death Spirit King before.
Seeing the green gas blocked by the golden light, Snake Lady’s expression changed slightly.
“Whoosh!”
In the next second, her form instantly transformed like a venomous snake, shooting forward.
During this process, her form changed into a large poisonous snake, extending its neck, opening its mouth wide, with long fangs exposed in the air.
“I really don’t understand. Since you’ve already investigated me, why come here to die?” Fang Yu frowned slightly, extending his left hand and directly grabbing Snake Lady’s neck as she lunged at him.
“Crack!”
Fang Yu’s left hand twisted downward forcefully, locking Snake Lady’s neck in place.
“Ah…”
Snake Lady let out a painful cry, but her life wasn’t in danger yet.
Her lower body twisted violently, her snake tail whipping toward Fang Yu.
Fang Yu, expressionless, gripped Snake Lady’s neck and pressed downward.
“Bang!”
Snake Lady’s entire body fell to the ground, her tail whipping to the side.
At this moment, Fang Yu raised his right foot and stomped down hard on Snake Lady’s head!
In the final moment, Snake Lady only had time to widen her eyes, looking desperately at the black sole of his shoe.
“Boom!”
The entire teahouse collapsed instantly!
Fang Yu flew out from the collapsed teahouse, his golden-glowing figure particularly eye-catching in the night sky.
The group of Demon Cult members who had just retreated outside the teahouse stared blankly at the collapsed building, then looked up at Fang Yu’s figure in the air.
Where was Lady Snake!?
Could it be… she was defeated so easily?
No one could believe that Lady Snake, who was extremely dangerous in their eyes and even feared by her own people, could be defeated so quickly!
But judging from the collapsed teahouse and the dazzling golden light in the air… this seemed to be the reality.
“To thank your Demon Cult for actively returning my person, I’ll give you a grand gift,” Fang Yu said to the crowd below from mid-air.
Everyone on the ground stared with wide eyes, looking in terror at Fang Yu in the air, not daring to respond.
At this moment, they saw Fang Yu raise both hands, palms together, forming a triangular opening.
“Sky Cannon!”
Fang Yu silently recited the incantation.
“Boom!”
A golden beam of light shot out from the triangle between his hands, directly toward the ground below!
“Run…”
The people below felt the overwhelming destructive aura and only had time to cry out these desperate words.
“Rumble…”
The light beam struck the ground, causing an explosion like a nuclear blast, shaking the entire ground.
The earth’s crust cracked, stones flew, and dust rose everywhere.
The group of people on the ground were killed almost instantly, without even a chance to scream.
The area within nearly a hundred meters of where the teahouse had stood became a sunken pit.
The teahouse had been located in the outskirts of North City, with few people around.
In mid-air, Fang Yu, bathed in golden light, glanced down below. His eyes, like two burning golden flames, made him look like a god, with an awe-inspiring presence.
Then, he raised his right hand and activated the Void Ring.
“Flash!”
With a flash of light, Fang Yu disappeared.
The overwhelming aura dissipated at the same time.
On the ground, there was complete silence, without a trace of life.
Those who died in the blast never imagined that even though their cult had classified Fang Yu as a heaven-level enemy… they had still vastly underestimated his power.
…
Fang Yu returned to North City, Number 101.
Little Fengling placed Ye Shengxue’s locked body on the floor of the first level of the bamboo house.
Fang Yu walked in and looked at Ye Shengxue, whose eyes were wide open on the floor.
“You’re Shadow, right? How do you feel now?” Fang Yu asked with a smile.
Ye Shengxue stared at Fang Yu intently but couldn’t speak.
Fang Yu crouched down and said to Little Fengling beside him, “I’ll tell you when to release the lock, and you release it immediately.”
“Mm.” Little Fengling nodded.
Fang Yu placed two fingers on Ye Shengxue’s forehead, his fingertips glowing with white light.
Then, a strand of divine consciousness entered Ye Shengxue’s soul.
At this moment, Fang Yu could see that Ye Shengxue’s soul was bound by a white light, unable to move.
And within her soul, there was also a black mark.
This mark was clearly what Shadow used to control Ye Shengxue.
Fang Yu observed for a while and found that this mark had penetrated into Ye Shengxue’s soul. Removing it would not be a simple matter.
This mark was like a tattoo on skin.
To completely erase it, some of the skin would have to be removed.
But even if a layer of skin is removed, it can regenerate later.
If the soul is damaged, recovery would be much more difficult.
In the worst case, she might become like a vegetative person.
So, forcibly erasing this mark was not feasible.
“Can’t erase it… then directly cover it?” Fang Yu narrowed his eyes, thinking.
It’s just like a tattoo on skin.
If you don’t like the original tattoo, you can simply tattoo over it, covering the original one—a common solution many people choose.
Within the soul, Fang Yu could use his own mark to cover Shadow’s mark.
This way, Shadow’s mark would be completely suppressed by Fang Yu’s mark, losing the ability to control Ye Shengxue.
Of course, this meant that Ye Shengxue’s soul would still bear a mark, but it would be Fang Yu’s.
But there was no other way now, so this had to be done.
In the future, Fang Yu would gradually research knowledge about soul techniques, and by then, he should have a way to completely remove this mark.
With this in mind, Fang Yu immediately began.
He directly imprinted his divine consciousness over the position of Shadow’s mark.
At this moment, Ye Shengxue let out a painful groan, her expression agonized.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, making his divine consciousness completely cover the black mark left by Shadow.
After about five minutes, the task was accomplished.
“You can release the lock now,” Fang Yu said.
Little Fengling spread her hands outward.
The restraint in Ye Shengxue’s soul immediately disappeared.
“Sizzle…”
At the same time, a strand of black energy flew out of her body and dissipated in the air.
Now, Ye Shengxue’s soul had a faint golden mark added to it.
“Done.”
Fang Yu withdrew his divine consciousness from Ye Shengxue’s body.
At this moment, Ye Shengxue’s eyes were tightly closed, but her eyeballs were moving, clearly regaining her original consciousness.
“Master, who is this person?” Little Fengling asked from the side.
“…She will become your assistant,” Fang Yu said.
“Assistant? What kind of assistant?” Little Fengling frowned and asked.
“To help you manage this mansion,” Fang Yu said.
“I… I don’t need an assistant! I can handle it myself!” Little Fengling realized and shook her head repeatedly in refusal, as if afraid that Ye Shengxue would steal her position.
“Don’t worry, everything has its order. You’re definitely the boss, and she’ll be your helper,” Fang Yu said.
“Well… I can barely accept that,” Little Fengling touched her forehead and said.
As they were talking, Ye Shengxue slowly opened her eyes.
Seeing the scene before her, she was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and saw Fang Yu standing in front of her.
“Mr. Fang…”
Ye Shengxue gritted her teeth and sat up.
“Awake? Do you remember what happened during this time?” Fang Yu asked.
“…Yes. I was aware of everything I was doing, but I couldn’t control myself…” Ye Shengxue looked down at her hands and said softly.
This period had been a nightmare for her.
She had seen many ugly scenes within the Demon Cult, and even now, thinking about them made her feel suffocated and terrified.
“Mr. Fang, thank you for saving me again…” Ye Shengxue knelt on the ground.
Fang Yu stepped back and glanced at Little Fengling.
“What are you thanking him for? From today on, you’re working for me!” Little Fengling stepped forward, standing tall and proud.
…
North City Third Hospital, high-end private ward.
Tang Ming lay on the hospital bed, much of his face covered in bandages, but he was awake.
Tang Dehui and his wife Jiang Heyue stood beside the bed.
“Dad, I don’t care about anything else! I just want Fang Yu dead! I must see him dead!” Tang Ming’s eyes were full of hatred as he spoke through gritted teeth.
“Don’t worry, you focus on recovering. I will definitely deal with this Fang Yu!” Tang Dehui said gravely.
“Yes, Xiaoming, don’t think too much. Getting angry will only hurt yourself. Your father will definitely help you get revenge,” Jiang Heyue gently persuaded from the side.
Tang Dehui was about to ask something when he received a phone call.
Seeing the caller ID, Tang Dehui frowned slightly and answered the call.
“How’s the investigation going?” Tang Dehui asked coldly.
“Family Head, this man Fang Yu… we can’t touch him!” A terrified voice came through the phone.
