Chapter 906 A Puppet
“Old White, what should we do now?” the fat man asked, looking at the shocked White Konggu in front of him.
White Konggu stroked his white beard, momentarily unable to speak.
Three ancient ruins that had just opened were claimed by the same person within a few short hours, causing the entrances to close…
White Konggu couldn’t even imagine how this person had accomplished this!
It’s worth noting that the time laws within most ancient ruins differ from the outside world. Spending one hour inside an ancient ruin might equal three days or even a week in the outside world.
Yet this man in black had obtained the inheritance and left the ancient ruins in less than an hour of outside time…
This meant that he had likely spent only ten minutes, or even just a few minutes… to obtain the inheritance inside.
Such a short time… it was incomprehensible no matter how one thought about it!
Perhaps this person hadn’t obtained the inheritance before leaving?
But if so, what was his purpose for entering?
Moreover, if he hadn’t obtained the inheritance, why would the entrances to the three ancient ruins close?
White Konggu’s mind raced, but he couldn’t come up with a reasonable explanation.
“Old White…” the fat man looked at White Konggu, waiting for a response.
White Konggu came back to his senses and looked at the fat man in front of him, saying gravely: “You… find a way to discover this man in black’s identity and whereabouts. Also, continue monitoring the situation at those three ruins.”
“Understood.” The fat man bowed and hurriedly left.
The bald elder looked at White Konggu and asked, his tone still shocked: “Old White, what about the announcement of the ancient ruins scheduled for tomorrow…”
“We can only cancel it, what else can we do?” White Konggu frowned.
“Will the higher-ups… will they…” the bald elder asked hesitantly.
“I’ll have to meet with them,” White Konggu said.
The bald elder nodded, then remembered something and asked: “Old White… what about Fang Yu? Should we still invite him over?”
White Konggu raised his white eyebrows and said: “Of course, one matter at a time. I’m very interested in this Fang Yu, bring him here as soon as possible.”
“Alright.” The bald elder bowed slightly and turned to leave the inner courtyard.
White Konggu looked up at the azure sky, then lowered his head to look at the Immortal Communication Stele in front of him, his brows furrowed.
Lately, the world had become increasingly restless.
Was this a sign, or…
…
“What? It still refuses to speak?” Fang Yu asked, arriving at the cave built by Little Fengling and looking at Axios pinned to the rock wall.
“Yes, it’s infuriating!” Little Fengling stood with her hands on her hips, glaring up at the silver-white body.
At this point, Axios barely resembled a human form.
But his eyes remained open, and his body still emitted a faint aura.
“This person doesn’t make a sound no matter how much I beat him, and he doesn’t bleed either! Really…” Little Fengling stomped her feet in frustration as she spoke.
Last time, when Drachi fell into her hands, it didn’t take long before she tortured him into crying and begging for mercy.
But now this Axios hadn’t made a single sound in all these days, which was a complete humiliation!
Especially today when her master had come to inspect…
“Master, give me just a little more time, I’ll definitely make him talk!” Little Fengling tugged at Fang Yu’s clothes.
“No need,” Fang Yu said.
“Master, you…” Little Fengling suddenly felt a chill, sensing she had lost her master’s trust, and in her area of expertise no less…
“This Axios is not human, just a puppet. Even if you tear it to pieces, it won’t make a sound,” Fang Yu said, slowly walking toward Axios.
“A puppet?” Little Fengling was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and exclaimed happily, “So it’s not my fault that it won’t speak!”
Fang Yu ignored Little Fengling and walked directly to Axios.
If Axios was a puppet, it meant that currently, it was still being controlled.
Having been locked in this place for so many days, it couldn’t gather much information.
But Fang Yu was certain that whoever was behind Axios could see everything through Axios’s vision.
Fang Yu stood in front of Axios, staring directly into its eyes.
In that instant, it was as if his gaze penetrated through Axios’s body, across tens of thousands of kilometers, connecting with another pair of eyes.
“I know you can see me, and you can probably hear what I’m saying,” Fang Yu said, narrowing his eyes slightly.
Axios remained silent.
“You don’t have to speak, but I think we’ll meet sooner or later,” Fang Yu said.
After speaking, Fang Yu extended one finger.
“Whoosh!”
A wave of fire suddenly appeared, rushing toward Axios.
“Sizzle…”
The sound of burning flesh echoed.
Seconds later, the flames disappeared.
Axios had vanished without a trace.
“Master, you just burned it like that?” Little Fengling’s expression changed as she ran forward and asked.
“Since it won’t speak, there’s no point in keeping it. It’s like having a surveillance camera installed in your home,” Fang Yu said. “Although the camera’s range is limited, it’s still annoying.”
“But now that you’ve burned it, I have nothing to do…” Little Fengling complained.
“Do you enjoy doing this kind of thing?” Fang Yu looked at Little Fengling and asked.
“Yes! I love torturing people,” Little Fengling nodded emphatically.
“That’s a bit perverted. You should read fewer trashy novels,” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said.
With that, Fang Yu turned and left.
Little Fengling was stunned for a moment, then reacted and chased after Fang Yu, shouting: “I, I’m not a pervert!”
…
After the Wang family incident, Fang Yu stayed at home for three consecutive days.
On the fourth day, a strange visitor came to Fang Yu’s home.
Fang Yu didn’t allow him to enter the mansion but instead met him at the front gate.
The visitor was an elder with a balding crown, wearing a white Taoist robe.
Before Fang Yu appeared, the bald elder looked at the two stone doors in front of him and the extremely long walls on both sides… with shock in his eyes.
North City, Number 101.
This building was quite famous in North City.
He never imagined that this building… was actually the residence of Fang Yu, who had recently shocked all of Yan Xia!
“Who are you? What business do you have with me?”
At that moment, a voice appeared behind the bald elder.
The bald elder’s expression changed, and he immediately turned around to see an extremely young man standing behind him, having appeared without notice.
This person… was Fang Yu!
“My name is Rao Donghai, one of the officials of the Sky Watching Bureau,” the bald elder said, bowing slightly.
“Sky Watching Bureau?” Fang Yu frowned slightly and asked, “What do you want from me?”
“Old White wishes to meet you. Would you be willing to accompany me for a visit?” Rao Donghai asked respectfully.
Old White…
Fang Yu had met this Old White once before, though he had been disguised as Fang Chengtian at the time.
Now, White Konggu had sent someone directly to his door…
It must be related to the Wang family incident from a few days ago.
Fang Yu was quite interested in that Immortal Communication Stele in the inner courtyard of the Sky Watching Bureau.
“Alright, shall we go now?” Fang Yu agreed straightforwardly without much consideration.
This actually surprised Rao Donghai.
He had thought the matter wouldn’t be so simple and had prepared various ways to persuade Fang Yu.
But unexpectedly, Fang Yu agreed directly.
“Yes… Old White is waiting for you at the Sky Watching Bureau,” Rao Donghai said, coming to his senses.
…
In less than half an hour, Fang Yu arrived at the Sky Watching Bureau with Rao Donghai.
Entering the inner courtyard, he saw the three stone steles again.
White Konggu was sitting in front of the steles at a tea table with a chessboard on it.
Seeing Fang Yu, White Konggu stood up with a smile.
“Hello, I am White Konggu, the current overseer of this humble place,” White Konggu introduced himself.
Having met White Konggu once before, Fang Yu naturally walked forward.
“Why did you ask me to come here?” Fang Yu asked directly.
White Konggu smiled slightly and said: “Since you’ve already come, don’t be in a hurry to leave. Let’s have some tea and play a couple of games of chess. Isn’t it delightful to discuss matters while enjoying ourselves?”
