Chapter 945 Fallen Dragon Clan
“This statement is correct… but since you don’t understand, why not be flexible and flip to the next pages?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
“If I can’t understand the first page, how can I understand the second or third page?” Lin Zhilan asked with a puzzled expression.
“Who told you… well, it’s my fault, I should have explained it clearly to you yesterday.” Fang Yu was quite helpless about Lin Zhilan’s straightforward thinking pattern, so he sat down and took the Heavenly Way Sword Manual in his hands.
“The first few pages of the Heavenly Way Sword Manual are all complex sword formulas, which are impossible to understand by direct reading. But after that, there are illustrations, which show the corresponding movements.” Fang Yu turned to the tenth page of the sword manual and showed it to Lin Zhilan. Indeed, a series of simple and clear illustrations appeared.
“So that’s how it is.” Lin Zhilan said calmly.
“You don’t seem frustrated at all.” Fang Yu said.
“Why should I be frustrated?” Lin Zhilan frowned and asked.
“Wasting so much time on the first page… never mind.” Fang Yu placed the sword manual back in front of Lin Zhilan and said, “Now you can start practicing with the help of the illustrations. I’ll sit here, and you can ask me if you have any questions.”
“Okay.” Lin Zhilan took the manual and began to study it seriously.
Fang Yu sat down in the training area behind her, quietly observing Lin Zhilan.
With the help of the illustrations, Lin Zhilan finally began to truly practice the Heavenly Way Sword Technique.
Fang Yu sat behind her for two hours, and Lin Zhilan didn’t encounter any confusion.
Her practice was progressing well, without any mistakes.
Lin Zhilan’s talent for swordsmanship was indeed quite impressive.
“I’m leaving now. If you have any questions, just call me. Your father has my phone number,” Fang Yu said.
Lin Zhilan was completely absorbed in her practice and didn’t respond to Fang Yu’s words.
Fang Yu directly left the training ground.
As Lin Zhengxiong was seeing Fang Yu out, Fang Yu curiously asked, “How many young people from your Lin family have made it onto the Heaven Ranking?”
“A total of fifteen people. You’ve already met fourteen of them,” Lin Zhengxiong answered.
“What about the last one?” Fang Yu asked.
“That would be our Lin family’s top prodigy, Lin Zhenxu. But he’s currently in seclusion and temporarily unable to meet with you, sir,” Lin Zhengxiong answered. “When he comes out, I will definitely bring him to meet you, sir.”
“Hmm.” Fang Yu nodded, then suddenly remembered something and asked, “By the way, do you have photos of Fan Jinsheng and Ma Sanhong?”
“Photos?” Lin Zhengxiong was startled, then frowned and said, “We should have them, but it will take some time to find them. How about this: I’ll go back and look for them, then have someone deliver them to you later.”
“That works,” Fang Yu replied.
…
After leaving the Lin family, Fang Yu returned to his own home.
Zheng Ze was already waiting for him in front of the bamboo building.
“Mr. Fang, you asked me to investigate the Yagi family from the Eastern Sun Island. I’ve collected quite a bit of information so far,” Zheng Ze said.
Fang Yu waved his right hand, and Zheng Ze felt the surroundings change, making him slightly dizzy.
“Don’t be afraid. Short-distance teleportation doesn’t have many side effects on the human body,” Fang Yu smiled and said, “Have a seat.”
Zheng Ze was stunned for a moment. He was now standing on the rooftop of a building with a chair beside him.
Zheng Ze sat down, and suddenly Ye Shengxue appeared next to him, smiling and saying, “Mr. Zheng.”
Then, Ye Shengxue lowered her head to brew tea.
“When I built this mansion, I used a rather high-end magical artifact to set up an extremely large formation,” Fang Yu said. “Once this formation is activated, simple magical techniques can achieve instant teleportation within the mansion. So, there’s no need to be surprised.”
Zheng Ze nodded in a daze.
“Let’s get to business,” Fang Yu said. “Start with the Yagi family.”
“Yes, Mr. Fang,” Zheng Ze sat up straight and began, “The Yagi family is an ancient and powerful family on Eastern Sun Island. They have a nickname: the Fallen Dragon Clan.”
“Fallen Dragon? What does that mean?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
“It’s related to the mythology of Eastern Sun Island,” Zheng Ze said. “In their mythology, there was a powerful monster that left a deep impression in their legends.”
“This monster was called the Eight-Headed Giant Serpent, also known as the Great Serpent.”
“And in Eastern Sun Island mythology, it’s also called the Fallen Dragon.”
Fallen Dragon?
Hearing this explanation, Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly.
He recalled the holy power emanating from Yagi Ken’s blood, as well as the golden dragon blood that Miyajima Hideo had been selling earlier.
So it really is related to dragons?
“The Yagi family is said to carry the bloodline of the Great Serpent, which gives them a formidable reputation on Eastern Sun Island,” Zheng Ze said.
“Then what’s the connection between the golden dragon blood that Miyajima Hideo was selling and the Yagi family?” Fang Yu asked.
“On this point, I interrogated Miyajima Yuta yesterday,” Zheng Ze said. “He said that the golden dragon blood is a product made in collaboration with the Yagi family. Without the Yagi family, it would be impossible to produce the golden dragon blood.”
“Just as I suspected,” Fang Yu took a sip of the tea Ye Shengxue handed him.
“Mr. Fang, regarding Yagi Ken, his injuries are severe, but his recovery ability is astonishing,” Zheng Ze said with a shocked expression. “From last night until today, his injuries seem to have recovered by more than fifty percent.”
“At this rate, I fear he might fully recover and forcibly break out of our custody.”
“Then don’t let him recover completely. Keep inflicting injuries on him,” Fang Yu raised his eyebrows and said.
“Inflict injuries?” Zheng Ze was stunned.
“Beat him up. You can’t kill him anyway,” Fang Yu said. “Both Yagi Ken and Miyajima Yuta need to be detained for a while longer. Once I finish the urgent matters at hand, I’ll deal with them.”
“Then I’ll take my leave, Mr. Fang,” Zheng Ze said, standing up.
“Have some tea first, there’s no rush,” Fang Yu said.
“No need, Mr. Fang. After I finish this task, I still need to continue helping you investigate the whereabouts of Bai Konggu from the Sky-Watching Bureau,” Zheng Ze said.
“Huaixu assigned this task to you as well? Is he really that short-staffed?” Fang Yu asked curiously.
“Master said that since it involves the Sky-Watching Bureau, he can’t assign just anyone. He must send someone trustworthy… so I took on the job,” Zheng Ze said.
“That’s tough. Your master always gives you the difficult tasks without any rewards,” Fang Yu stood up, patted Zheng Ze’s shoulder, and said, “How about this… do you like vegetables?”
“…Huh?” Zheng Ze was stunned, looking at Fang Yu in confusion.
“Shengxue, go pick two pounds of fresh vegetables for Zheng Ze to take home,” Fang Yu turned to Ye Shengxue and said.
“Okay,” Ye Shengxue replied.
“Take him with you to the vegetable garden. He can pick whatever he wants,” Fang Yu added.
Before Zheng Ze could react, Ye Shengxue had already taken him away.
After they left, a figure walked onto the rooftop, silently approaching Fang Yu.
“Brother Yu,” Su Lengyun sat down beside Fang Yu.
“Weren’t you in seclusion?” Fang Yu glanced at Su Lengyun and asked.
“Not in seclusion… just regular practice,” Su Lengyun replied.
“Oh,” Fang Yu nodded and leaned back in his chair.
“Brother Yu, have you been busy lately?” Su Lengyun asked softly.
“Do I look busy to you?” Fang Yu crossed his legs and asked with a smile.
“I’ve seen you going out frequently… it seems like you have many things to do,” Su Lengyun said, then looked at Fang Yu’s hair.
The white hair was still mixed with the black hair, just like before, and the amount didn’t seem to have increased.
But for some reason, seeing these white hairs made Su Lengyun feel depressed and uncomfortable.
“Brother Yu, let me give you a massage to help you relax.”
Su Lengyun stood up, moved behind Fang Yu, and extended her fair hands to gently press his temples.
“When did you learn this skill?” Fang Yu looked up and asked.
“I used to massage you when I was little. You’ve forgotten,” Su Lengyun said softly.
“Really? I don’t recall at all,” Fang Yu said.
“Brother Yu, you can rest… you don’t need to talk to me,” Su Lengyun said.
“Then I’ll take a nap. If you get tired, just stop. I don’t feel much difference anyway,” Fang Yu closed his eyes and said.
Su Lengyun didn’t speak, continuing to massage gently.
After a few minutes, Fang Yu seemed to have fallen asleep.
Su Lengyun reached out her right hand and gently stroked Fang Yu’s hair.
…
When Fang Yu woke up, it was already night.
Opening his eyes, Su Lengyun was gone.
On the tea table in front of him were two photos.
Fang Yu picked up the two photos. They were pictures of two men.
One had long, jet-black hair with a gloomy gaze.
The other had a goatee and sharp eyes.
On the back of each photo was a name.
The man with black hair was Ma Sanhong, and the man with the goatee was Fan Jinsheng.
“It’s already eight o’clock… about time to make a move.”
Fang Yu checked the time, a cold smile appearing on his face.
“Mr. Fang, where are you going out tonight?” Ye Shengxue asked curiously during dinner.
“To kidnap one or two people,” Fang Yu replied while eating heartily.
“Kidnap?” Ye Shengxue and Su Lengyun exchanged glances.
Zhao Zinan’s hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.
All three women looked at Fang Yu with shocked expressions.
“Don’t worry, it’s nothing serious. I just need to bring someone back to ask some questions,” Fang Yu said.
“Master! Will you hand over the kidnapped person to me again?” Little Fengling reacted excitedly, jumping onto her chair.
“We’ll see,” Fang Yu said as he quickly finished the food in front of him.
After dinner, Fang Yu left the mansion.
The only people he needed to find were Ma Sanhong and Fan Jinsheng. As for other members of their families, even if they followed the Half-Spirit Tribe, they wouldn’t have much value for questioning.
He just needed to capture these two men.
