Chapter 872 Ouyang Xiuyuan’s Energy
Being able to escape alive from that haunted place and flee from those two fierce beasts was the greatest fortune for them.
They needed to hurry back to their families and report the situation at the ruins.
Most cultivators immediately set off to return to their families.
……
“Bang!”
Long Si fell heavily to the ground, creating a depression in the surface.
Before reaching the teleportation gate, he had been struck by Fang Yu’s palm, causing him to pass out immediately.
At this moment, he was still in an unconscious state.
But just then, a faint black mist began to emanate from his body.
Under the spreading black mist, the injuries inside his body slowly healed.
Soon after, Long Si opened his eyes.
He immediately felt as if his body had been torn apart, with pain radiating from every part.
Long Si tried to move, but could only grit his teeth and groan in pain.
“Multiple bones in your body are damaged. Complete recovery will take at least half a month,” a deep voice resonated in his mind. “Fortunately, your meridians are undamaged, otherwise… even the gods couldn’t save you.”
Hearing his master’s words, Long Si simply lay flat on the ground, no longer attempting to move.
“Master, I’m sorry. I should have followed your instructions and left that place quickly,” Long Si said with shame.
Being able to escape alive this time was already lucky for him.
If he had died in that space, it wouldn’t just be about himself, but would have betrayed his master who had helped him grow to where he is today!
“What’s done is done. No need for more words,” the voice in his mind said. “I know your character well, otherwise I wouldn’t have chosen you as my successor.”
Long Si remained silent for a moment, then said: “That Phoenix clan descendant… was much stronger than I imagined.”
“You’re focused on the Phoenix clan descendant, but I think… that man’s power is even more terrifying,” the voice in his mind said. “He gives me a sense of unfathomable depth. This feeling hasn’t appeared for a long time.”
That man?
Long Si knew that the man his master referred to was Fang Yu, whom he had encountered a few days ago!
How could a man who appeared so young possess such power?
Who exactly was he?
“You needn’t be anxious, nor should you belittle yourself,” the voice in his mind said. “From now on, just follow my plan, step by step, and you too can reach a level where you can crush them.”
Long Si didn’t speak, but his breathing became somewhat rapid.
The encounter in the ruins was a major blow to him.
He was no match for Fang Yu, nor for that Phoenix clan descendant.
This made him clearly realize that with his current abilities, he couldn’t possibly dominate the martial world.
He needed to continue improving!
……
When the young cultivators returned to their homes, they were shocked to discover that three days had passed.
As these cultivators returned to their respective families, information about the ancient ruins began to spread.
The road floating in mid-air was actually a giant python, and later a huge black evil spirit appeared and swallowed the python in one gulp!
Various accounts and rumors spread throughout the Northern Capital’s martial world.
Suddenly, the hot topic in the Northern Capital’s martial world shifted from Fang Yu and the Wang family to the internal situation of these ancient ruins.
Many people were speculating about the identity of the giant python and what exactly the completely black evil spirit was.
Many also questioned the Sky Observation Bureau.
Since this was a ruin, there should have been inheritance items inside!
Why had no one seen any inheritance items before the ruins collapsed?
The questioning of the Sky Observation Bureau gained considerable support.
In the past, no one would have questioned the authority of the Sky Observation Bureau.
But now, the Northern Capital’s martial world was in chaos. The Northern Capital Martial Arts Association building had been bombed, a single Fang Yu had defeated twelve Divine Transformation stage cultivators from the Wang family, and afterward the Wang family had fallen silent…
What else was impossible?
The world had gone mad, and anything could happen. The so-called authorities no longer existed.
……
“Your home… is really big.”
After being shown around by Ye Shengxue for an entire afternoon, Red Lotus returned to Fang Yu with astonishment in her eyes.
She had originally thought Fang Yu’s home was just that bamboo building.
But unexpectedly, nearly a thousand acres were all part of Fang Yu’s residence…
“I feel like I’m about to break through soon and need a quiet place to seclude myself… Could I possibly… here at your place…” Red Lotus looked at Fang Yu, biting her red lips as she asked.
“Sure, there are many places to stay here. You can choose any building you like,” Fang Yu said.
“…I don’t need a building, just a quiet place will do,” Red Lotus said. “I saw a bamboo grove at the back earlier, that place seems nice…”
“Oh,” Fang Yu said. “As long as you don’t cause any damage, you can seclude yourself wherever you want.”
“Thank you,” Red Lotus said.
Fang Yu turned to look at Ye Shengxue and smiled: “Isn’t it almost time for dinner?”
……
At night, Fang Yu stayed in his room and took out the Taisui Armor he had obtained today to examine it carefully.
The Taisui Armor emitted a seven-colored light, and from a distance, it looked like a very small vest.
But upon closer inspection, one could see countless extremely tiny scales on it.
It was these scales that formed the impenetrable Taisui Armor.
“Scales from thousands of creatures, and it’s said to include dragon scales and phoenix feathers?” Fang Yu held the Taisui Armor up to his eyes, trying to identify dragon scales and phoenix feathers among them.
But after just a brief attempt, he gave up.
There were simply too many scales, and besides, Fang Yu didn’t know what dragon scales and phoenix feathers looked like, making it impossible to find them.
After observing for a while, Fang Yu held the Taisui Armor in one hand, contemplating its use.
This legendary armor was of little use to him.
Moreover, Fang Yu didn’t particularly like overly dazzling light.
“Give it away as a gift? Who would be suitable?” Fang Yu pondered.
After thinking for a while without finding a suitable candidate, he put the Taisui Armor back into the storage space of his Spirit Ring.
Just as he was preparing to sleep, his phone rang.
“Fang Yu, I’m returning to Huaibei the day after tomorrow,” Tang Xiaorou’s voice came through the phone.
“Let me tell you in advance, I don’t have time to see you off,” Fang Yu said.
“I didn’t ask you to!” Tang Xiaorou snorted coldly, then said, “I just want you to attend a party with me tomorrow night…”
“Again? Tang Xiaorou, haven’t you learned your lesson from that incident with your cousin?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
“I, I certainly have learned my lesson… but this has nothing to do with my cousin. It’s just a party hosted by a major Northern Capital enterprise. I heard many big celebrities will be there,” Tang Xiaorou immediately said. “My father received an invitation but he’s too busy to come to Northern Capital in person, so he asked me and you to go together…”
“If you don’t go, I won’t go either.”
“But I heard there will be lots of delicious food in the private rooms.”
Fang Yu thought about it and realized he didn’t have much to do tomorrow, so going wouldn’t be a problem.
“By the way, Fang Yu, I heard from my father that my cousin…” Tang Xiaorou suddenly lowered her voice.
“Is she still causing trouble for you?” Fang Yu frowned and asked.
That day at Yulan Pavilion, he had shattered one of He Xiaolu’s kneecaps.
For He Xiaolu, this punishment was already quite lenient.
But if she was still causing problems… it would mean the punishment was too light and needed to be increased.
“No, no! I just heard from my father that her family, the He family, collapsed overnight,” Tang Xiaorou said quietly.
“Collapsed?” Fang Yu was stunned, looking confused.
“They directly filed for bankruptcy, for no apparent reason… Wasn’t that your doing?” Tang Xiaorou asked.
“It wasn’t me,” Fang Yu replied.
“Oh,” Tang Xiaorou responded.
“What time tomorrow night?” Fang Yu asked.
“The party starts at 7:30 PM. I’ll come find you at 6:30 PM!” Tang Xiaorou said happily, hearing that Fang Yu was willing to attend.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Yu frowned slightly.
The He family collapsed?
He hadn’t done that.
Fang Yu thought for a moment and then thought of Ouyang Xiuyuan.
It must have been his doing.
This being the case, the families behind Zeng Xiao, Zhou Yuan, and Liu Tianhao, who were present that day, probably weren’t faring well either.
“Xiuyuan actually has such power?”
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling what Ouyang Xiuyuan had once said.
The Ouyang family was the number one family in the Central Capital.
