Chapter 879 The Arrival of the Archangel
“Brother Fang, what exactly did Xiu Yuan do wrong?”
After Ouyang Xiu Yuan and his son left, Huai Xu asked in a deep voice.
Huai Xu grew up with Ouyang Xiu Yuan and knew him very well.
Just now when the four of them were sitting together, Ouyang Xiu Yuan appeared to be chatting normally on the surface, but the unusual expression in his demeanor was still noticed by him.
Therefore, he knew that what had happened was definitely not as trivial as Fang Yu had described.
Fang Yu looked at Huai Xu and told him the true situation.
After listening, Huai Xu’s face showed both shock and sadness.
If anyone else had told him this, he definitely wouldn’t have believed it.
But the person speaking was Fang Yu… so this matter couldn’t possibly be false.
Ouyang Xiu Yuan, who grew up with him since childhood, was willing to provide methods to completely destroy the North Capital Martial Arts Association just to strengthen his family?
Ouyang Xiu Yuan knew very well what the North Capital Martial Arts Association meant to Huai Xu!
Yet for his own selfish interests, Ouyang Xiu Yuan was willing to betray him…
For a moment, Huai Xu couldn’t speak, just lowering his head and staring at the tea in his cup.
“Xiu Yuan came to apologize to me, seeking my forgiveness, but I didn’t accept it or give him a way out,” Fang Yu said, looking at Huai Xu. “That’s because I felt he should apologize to you.”
“His apology to me was probably just because he feared I would punish him.”
“Now, I’m giving you the choice. If you’re willing to forgive him, we can put this matter aside for now and continue with our false pretenses. If he doesn’t do anything else to trouble me, I won’t touch him. If you’re not willing to forgive him, then it’s simple – we’ll crush his ambitions in the cradle.”
When Fang Yu spoke, he was like an observer, his tone indifferent.
Huai Xu raised his head, looked at Fang Yu, and after a long while gave a bitter smile and shook his head, saying, “Brother Fang, I really can’t be as magnanimous as you.”
He knew that Fang Yu, having lived for so many years, had perhaps already become detached from such matters.
In dealing with them, he wouldn’t consider any past friendship.
But Huai Xu couldn’t do that.
When they were young, he and Ouyang Xiu Yuan grew up sharing the same pair of pants.
They were both children from poor families, bullied by others.
Before meeting Fang Yu, when he was beaten, only Ouyang Xiu Yuan would stand up for him, and then get beaten alongside him.
He felt that the reason Ouyang Xiu Yuan’s ambition had grown so great today was likely related to the bullying he suffered as a child.
“Whatever you choose is up to you,” Fang Yu said. “But I should warn you, judging from Ouyang Xiu Yuan’s behavior today, I think it would be difficult for him to turn back.”
“Of course, he hasn’t caused any substantial harm yet.”
“Giving him one more chance, I think, is also reasonable.”
Huai Xu lowered his head and pondered for a long time.
When he raised his head again, his face looked older, filled with grief and pain.
“Brother Fang, I hope… to give him one more chance,” Huai Xu said.
“Fine, this is your decision, and I respect it,” Fang Yu stood up and said. “But I must emphasize again, if he does anything else that I find inappropriate, I will immediately take action against him.”
“At that time, I hope you won’t interfere.”
After saying this, Fang Yu turned and left the tea pavilion.
Huai Xu sat at the tea table, supporting his forehead with both hands, and let out a deep sigh.
…
Fang Yu returned home and went directly to where Drachi was imprisoned.
This was a small cave in the back mountain. The interior space wasn’t large, but small lanterns hung from the ceiling, emitting a faint light.
This made the atmosphere of the entire cave quite dark and terrifying.
On the ground of the cave, various weapons could be seen everywhere.
Blood-stained blades, some white bones and skulls, and even some dismembered bodies.
Fang Yu’s home never had such a place.
Obviously, this environment was temporarily created by Little Fengling.
The various items on the ground were actually just illusions.
“Master, that whatever Laxi is inside,” Little Fengling led Fang Yu to the deeper part of the cave, pointing ahead with her small hand.
“Drachi,” Fang Yu corrected.
“It’s all the same. I’ve treated him very well according to your requirements,” Little Fengling said proudly, looking like she wanted to be praised.
Seeing her expression, Fang Yu’s heart sank.
Could Drachi… already be dead?
Thinking this, Fang Yu quickened his pace and walked to the deepest part of the cave.
Soon, he saw Drachi, his limbs bound by chains, covered in wounds, and barely breathing.
From his external appearance, Drachi was almost at his limit.
Fang Yu glanced at Little Fengling.
“What’s wrong… you told me to torture him well,” Little Fengling said with a wronged expression.
Fang Yu ignored Little Fengling and walked to Drachi, lifting his head.
When Drachi saw Fang Yu in front of him, and caught a glimpse of Little Fengling standing behind Fang Yu, he immediately shuddered.
His fear of Little Fengling had already surpassed his fear of Fang Yu!
This little girl looked harmless on the surface, but her methods were extremely cruel!
“No, don’t kill me… don’t kill me, I’m willing to tell you everything…” Drachi’s courage had been completely crushed, and he couldn’t muster any other thoughts.
He can still speak, that’s good.
Fang Yu looked at Drachi with cold eyes and asked, “You said before that Ouyang Xiu Yuan agreed to provide you with some intelligence.”
“I want to know, what exactly does your Angel Church want to do?”
Drachi gasped for breath and said, “We… just want to enter the many ancient ruins in your area… Our Grand Angel Bishop believes that the era of All Things Revival is coming, and those ancient ruins are symbols of it… Therefore, we accepted the request from the Ouyang family…”
“Has your Grand Angel Bishop ever mentioned what exactly All Things Revival refers to?” Fang Yu asked.
“He, he hasn’t said yet…” Drachi trembled.
Fang Yu stroked his chin, his eyes filled with extreme doubt.
At the same time, he also had a deep sense of self-doubt.
The Flood, the Great Revival Era, All Things Revival…
These fresh terms clearly all pointed to the same event.
But strangely, it seemed that no normal human cultivator knew about it.
Demons, Half-Spirit Race, Angel Church – they all knew about it clearly.
How did they know this event was about to happen!?
“I, I’ve told you everything I know… please spare my life, don’t kill me…” Drachi cried out, seeing that Fang Yu’s expression didn’t look good.
Fang Yu frowned, considering his options.
Last time with the demon, he learned some information about the Great Revival Era, but many aspects remained unclear, as the demon couldn’t explain clearly.
To fully understand this matter, he needed to gather information from multiple sources.
The Grand Angel…
“Where is this Grand Angel Bishop you mentioned currently?” Fang Yu asked.
“He… he might come to North Capital soon,” Drachi said. “He might already be here.”
“Oh? Why would he come to North Capital?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
“He wants to personally inspect those ancient ruins,” Drachi said.
“I see… that makes things more convenient. If things go smoothly, I’ll release you soon,” Fang Yu smiled.
…
Three days passed quickly.
After the previous ruins incident, the major martial arts families in North Capital all entered a brief period of recovery.
North Capital, which had been bustling with activity during this time, finally regained some peace.
But this was only true for most people.
For a small number of top powers, the excitement continued.
Today, the Grand Angel Bishop of the Angel Church from the Western Regions arrived in North Capital.
The status of this Grand Angel Bishop in the Western Regions… could be described as a living deity.
His arrival in North Capital was naturally a major event.
