Chapter 813 Guild Hall Collapse!
Fang Yu and Zheng Ze arrived at the Martial Arts Association building together.
At this time, Huai Xu was holding a general meeting in the conference hall on the seventh floor.
The leaders of the four divisions, Wang Wenshan, the chairman of the North Capital Martial Arts Association, four vice-chairmen, and executives responsible for various aspects were all present.
After Fang Chengtian’s identity was sacrificed, Huai Xu promoted Zheng Ze to the position of vice-chairman.
Therefore, Zheng Ze also had to attend this general meeting.
So, Fang Yu followed behind Zheng Ze to the seventh floor to participate in this general meeting.
Huai Xu sat at the head of the conference table, while everyone else remained standing.
“Lord Huai Xu, I am deeply sorry about Vice-Chairman Fang’s death… I didn’t consider things thoroughly. I shouldn’t have let Vice-Chairman Fang attend that family meeting…” Wang Wenshan bowed to Huai Xu and said.
Huai Xu’s face remained expressionless as he waved his hand and said in a deep voice, “From the moment I appointed him as vice-chairman, he was prepared to make sacrifices. You need not apologize for this.”
“Huai Xu’s acting skills aren’t great. At a time like this, shouldn’t he show at least a bit of sadness? He’s too calm,” Fang Yu, squeezed at the back of the crowd, thought to himself.
“The half-spirit clan’s infiltration of the North Capital martial arts world has reached an extremely serious level,” Huai Xu said, scanning the room. “I called this general meeting today to discuss this matter!”
At this moment, the people around the conference table displayed various expressions.
Some looked serious, some had wandering gazes, and others had tense expressions.
“I can say with certainty that even now, in this meeting, among you, there are those who have been infiltrated by the half-spirit clan,” Huai Xu said in a sharp tone, his gaze piercing.
These words shocked everyone present.
Many people looked around, exchanging glances.
Some of them, like Pan Yushan and Luo Hao, had originally been controlled by the half-spirit clan, but had regained their senses after Fang Yu destroyed those soul altars.
However, during the time they were controlled, they had done many bad things.
To keep their current positions and avoid investigation, they tacitly agreed not to voluntarily admit that they had been controlled by the half-spirit clan.
Now, hearing Huai Xu’s words, these people turned pale with unease.
“I know many of you were once controlled by the half-spirit clan. Rest assured, I will not pursue this matter,” Huai Xu said, as if guessing their thoughts. “The infiltrators I just mentioned are those who haven’t been discovered yet, a group of people hiding among us.”
“Lord Huai Xu, I want to know why you’re so certain that among us…” He Tianhong, the leader of the Azure Dragon Division, asked.
“Although I’ve been in seclusion at the manor, I still have intelligence capabilities,” Huai Xu replied, glancing at He Tianhong.
“But we’ve been monitoring the Martial Arts Association and haven’t found any unusual situations,” Zhao Yang, the leader of the White Tiger Division, said from the other side.
“That is precisely where you’ve failed in your duties!” Huai Xu said, his tone intensifying.
He Tianhong and Zhao Yang both changed expression.
The other two division leaders also looked uncomfortable.
Being criticized in front of everyone at the general meeting made them lose face.
Huai Xu glanced at the four of them and said, “Our entire North Capital Martial Arts Association has only one task for the coming period, and that is to root out the source of the half-spirit clan!”
The four division leaders lowered their heads without much response.
Seeing their demeanor, Huai Xu’s eyes flashed with a strange light, and his brows furrowed.
…
The content of the meeting was somewhat boring, mainly consisting of Huai Xu lecturing the various executives.
Fang Yu was bored and let his gaze wander around casually.
All these people present were high-ranking officials of the Martial Arts Association. Any one of them could exert considerable influence in both the secular and martial arts worlds.
Yet now, they were being scolded like children who had made mistakes.
Therefore, none of them looked pleased. They all lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
But among them, one person caught Fang Yu’s attention.
That was Vice-Chairman Du Teng.
When previously using the identity of Fang Chengtian, he had met him twice.
Du Teng had always given Fang Yu the impression of someone not fully present, always looking down at his phone.
Moreover, this person seemed to have never spoken.
And now, Du Teng was also looking down, but Fang Yu could clearly see that his forehead was covered with a layer of fine sweat.
His face was pale, and his eyes concealed fear and panic.
What was going on?
Although everyone was being scolded, he wasn’t being singled out, so why did he look so terrified?
Fang Yu stared at Du Teng with confusion.
At this time, Huai Xu was still speaking, but had shifted from scolding to discussing future plans.
But at this moment, Du Teng suddenly looked up, glanced at Huai Xu, his eyes full of unease and fear.
Afterward, he silently retreated from the crowd and left the meeting room.
“Where is he going?” Fang Yu frowned, wanting to follow.
But at this moment, he keenly sensed two faint auras flashing past outside the meeting room.
These two auras were quite weak, obviously deliberately concealed.
Instinct told Fang Yu that something was about to happen, possibly something significant.
“Be careful,” Fang Yu released a strand of divine consciousness, sending a message to Huai Xu and Zheng Ze.
Huai Xu looked in Fang Yu’s direction, and Zheng Ze also turned his head, his eyes questioning.
But by this time, Fang Yu was already heading out of the meeting room.
“Swish!”
As soon as Fang Yu walked out of the meeting room, he heard a slight unusual sound.
The sound came from the rest room ahead!
Fang Yu concealed his aura and quickly arrived at the door of the rest room.
Looking inside, he saw a headless body lying in a pool of blood, with blood still flowing continuously from the severed neck.
Fang Yu looked to the side and saw Du Teng’s head in the corner of the room.
That face, distorted with terror, was facing Fang Yu.
There was no one else visible in the rest room.
But the two faintly existing auras, though well-concealed, were still detected by Fang Yu.
Fang Yu walked directly into the rest room, bent down, and examined Du Teng’s body.
“Whoosh…”
At this moment, a piercing sound of a weapon cutting through the air came from beside him.
A silver flash descended from above Fang Yu’s head, aiming directly at his neck.
“Bang!”
The sharp blade struck Fang Yu’s nape, making a crisp sound before breaking.
Yet Fang Yu’s neck didn’t show even the slightest wound.
“You’re quite vicious,” Fang Yu stood up, his right hand grabbing upward.
“Thud!”
With a muffled sound, a black figure suddenly appeared in the seemingly empty air.
A masked man in black was pulled over by Fang Yu’s true energy, his throat gripped.
The black-clad man’s eyes were filled with terror as he struggled desperately.
“Swoosh!”
At this moment, another sound of something cutting through the air came from behind!
Without turning his head, Fang Yu threw his left fist backward!
“Bang!”
A splash of blood suddenly erupted in the air behind him.
The other black-clad man materialized, but only as exploded remains flying across the rest room.
In an instant, the entire rest room was filled with a thick smell of blood, with bright red blood splattered everywhere.
The black-clad man gripped by the throat, seeing his companion die in such a tragic manner, became even more terrified.
Fang Yu’s right hand applied slight pressure.
The black-clad man’s limbs twitched, and painful groans escaped from his throat.
“Why did you kill Du Teng?” Fang Yu pulled off the black cloth covering the man’s face, revealing an unfamiliar male face, and asked.
“He… knew our secret,” the black-clad man answered with difficulty.
“What secret?” Fang Yu asked, narrowing his eyes.
The black-clad man kept his mouth shut, not speaking.
“I guess you must be from the half-spirit clan?” Fang Yu asked.
The black-clad man still didn’t speak.
Fang Yu’s eyes grew cold, and his hand gripping the throat applied more force.
The black-clad man was in extreme pain, struggling desperately.
“I… can tell you, but you… must let me go!” the black-clad man barely managed to speak.
Fang Yu loosened his right hand slightly and said, “Speak.”
“This secret is…” the black-clad man suddenly grinned, revealing a maniacal smile, and said, “Today… you all will die!”
“Boom!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a deafening explosion came from the meeting room nearby!
In an instant, the explosive force spread throughout the entire association building, with flames everywhere!
The entire association building rapidly collapsed!
