Chapter 968 The Path Went Astray
“Buzz…”
Within two or three seconds, the car engine roared, but the sedan couldn’t move forward even half a meter.
The driver frowned and instinctively honked the horn.
But despite the horn blaring for several seconds, the car still couldn’t budge.
“What the hell is going on!?” Huo Rong asked with furrowed brows.
“Seems like something’s stuck in front of the wheels. Let me get out and check…” the driver said, turning his head.
“Knock knock knock!”
Just then, someone knocked on the window next to Huo Rong.
Huo Rong turned to look and saw a person standing outside the car door.
“That old dog Ji Dongshan even dares to hire bodyguards to block us?” Huo Rong laughed in anger, directly attempting to push open the car door.
But when he pushed hard, he found the door wouldn’t budge.
He tried pushing again, but still couldn’t move it!
The person outside was holding the door shut, preventing him from opening it!
Huo Rong’s anger flared as he lowered the window and shouted, “Ji Dongshan, if you want to die, you should have said so earlier! I’ll get out right now and slaughter you!”
But at that moment, an unfamiliar young face appeared before him.
“Didn’t you just tell Ji Dongshan to think about it? He’s made his decision,” Fang Yu said.
“Made his decision?” Huo Rong was stunned for a moment.
“He won’t agree to your demands, and he asked me to beat you up,” Fang Yu smiled.
Huo Rong was stunned again and turned to look at the woman sitting beside him.
Huo Qingcheng frowned and said, “Deal with him.”
Huo Rong turned back to Fang Yu, opened his mouth, and revealed a cruel smile.
But by then, Fang Yu had already reached out, grabbed his head, and violently pulled him outward.
“Crash!”
Huo Rong’s entire body, along with the car door, was forcefully pulled outside.
“Ah…”
Huo Rong let out a painful groan.
Fang Yu grabbed his neck with one hand and lifted him into the air.
Huo Rong’s forehead was bleeding as he struggled desperately.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t break free from Fang Yu’s right hand.
“You can be a bit more arrogant,” Fang Yu smiled.
Huo Rong was in extreme pain, his face turning purplish-blue as he cursed, “You, you dog! Do you know who we are!?”
“I really don’t,” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and replied.
When he used to stay in Jiangnan, he had heard of several major families and dealt with a few.
But among them, there was no such Huo family.
“Master He, please save my brother!” At this moment, the woman in the car spoke with a slightly anxious voice.
“Bang!”
From the back seat of the stretched sedan, a burst of energy suddenly erupted.
The car door was blasted open, and two silver flashes shot out.
Fang Yu didn’t even bother to dodge.
When he first released his divine sense, he already knew there was a cultivator at the Huashen stage sitting in the car.
In a place like Jiangnan, a Huashen stage cultivator, also known as a God Realm expert, was considered a top-tier super powerhouse.
Obviously, this Master He was the backing for Huo Rong’s arrogance.
“Clang! Clang!”
Two flying knives cut through the air, striking Fang Yu’s shoulder and neck directly, making a crisp sound before bouncing off.
There wasn’t even the slightest wound on Fang Yu’s shoulder and neck.
“Hmm?”
A puzzled voice came from inside the car.
“Whoosh!”
Then, a figure flashed out, charging straight at Fang Yu.
“Boring,” Fang Yu grabbed Huo Rong and casually slammed him to the ground!
“Bang!”
Huo Rong’s body crashed into the ground, causing it to crack.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he passed out.
Meanwhile, the figure that had flashed out from the car appeared behind Fang Yu, a weapon in hand, stabbing directly at the back of Fang Yu’s head!
But the strike hit nothing!
In an instant, Fang Yu had disappeared from his sight!
At the same time, a chill rose from behind.
Master He’s face changed drastically. He wanted to turn around but felt an intense pain in his shoulder!
“Bang!”
Fang Yu raised his right hand and forcefully slapped Master He’s right shoulder.
The bones inside Master He’s body shattered layer by layer in that instant!
His entire body collapsed like a building, turning into a pile of flesh on the ground.
Killed with a single strike!
Suddenly, everything became quiet.
Behind them, Ji Dongshan sat on the ground, wide-eyed, staring at Fang Yu’s back, unable to make a sound.
“What happened…” At this moment, Ji Rumei ran out from the main door.
Seeing Ji Dongshan sitting on the ground with blood on his face, Ji Rumei’s expression changed, and she quickly ran forward.
“Dad!” Ji Rumei crouched down beside Ji Dongshan and asked while supporting him, “Are you okay?”
“I’m… fine,” Ji Dongshan swallowed, his gaze still fixed on Fang Yu ahead, asking with a trembling voice, “Master Fang, why are you here?”
“He…” Ji Rumei looked up and only then noticed Fang Yu standing in front of a car door.
“Ah…”
At that moment, a shrill scream came from inside the car.
Fang Yu stepped forward, bent down, and reached into the car.
Then, he pulled Huo Qingcheng out.
Huo Qingcheng’s face was now pale, her entire body trembling violently.
Fang Yu grabbed her and walked toward Ji Dongshan.
When he reached Ji Dongshan, Fang Yu threw Huo Qingcheng directly to the ground.
Huo Qingcheng shook as if convulsing, extremely disheveled.
She had witnessed her brother being slammed to the ground, his fate unknown.
And she had seen the extremely powerful Master He being turned into a pile of flesh with just one slap from Fang Yu…
This scene had already terrified her beyond measure.
“Master Fang…” Ji Dongshan, upon seeing Fang Yu, was in a panic and almost knelt down.
He had also witnessed Fang Yu’s slap… and still hadn’t recovered from the shock.
It was known that the Huo siblings, along with Master He, had recently trampled over all the major families in Jiangnan, with no one daring to resist.
A God Realm expert in a place like Jiangnan was like a deity.
Even top-tier martial arts families like the Zhong family had already submitted to the Huo family.
But now, this Master He… had just been killed with a single slap from Fang Yu?
At this moment, Ji Rumei also recognized that the woman before her was Huo Qingcheng from the Huo family.
The Huo family… was a newly emerged family in Jiangnan, and also currently the number one family in the region.
“I saw they were being impolite earlier, so I helped teach them a lesson. It’s not a big deal,” Fang Yu said to Ji Rumei.
Then, Fang Yu looked at Ji Rumei and asked, “What’s the background of this Huo family?”
“The Huo family…” Ji Rumei’s expression was blank, still not having processed everything.
“You dare to touch us, you dare to touch us… behind us is the Ouyang family! Master He is dead, and you will die too!” At this moment, Huo Qingcheng on the ground shrieked.
The Ouyang family?
Hearing this name, Fang Yu frowned, looking at Huo Qingcheng at his feet, and asked, “The Ouyang family you mentioned? Which Ouyang family?”
“Which else!? There’s only one Ouyang family in Yanxia!” Seeing that Fang Yu had heard of the Ouyang family, Huo Qingcheng’s demeanor immediately changed, and she said loudly, “The Ouyang family has immense power in Beidu, and the head of the Ouyang family even has a close friendship with Master Huaixu, the number one figure in Beidu’s martial arts world…”
“You laid hands on us today, and the Ouyang family will definitely avenge us…”
“Bang!”
Fang Yu kicked Huo Qingcheng, sending her flying.
Huo Qingcheng didn’t even have time to scream before she crashed into the wall behind her and passed out.
Seeing this, both Ji Rumei and Ji Dongshan were shocked and froze.
The Huo siblings, who had been throwing their weight around in Jiangnan for some time, were now thoroughly disciplined.
While it was satisfying, the consequences…
“Don’t worry, someone will come to clean up tonight’s incident. It won’t be linked to you,” Fang Yu said.
After speaking, Fang Yu sighed.
Ji Rumei had never seen Fang Yu display such a slightly helpless expression. She bit her lip and asked, “Mr. Fang, is the Ouyang family difficult to deal with? Perhaps…”
“No, I’m just feeling a bit emotional. Take your father inside and treat his wounds. I need to make a call,” Fang Yu said.
“…Alright,” Ji Rumei replied, supporting Ji Dongshan as they walked inside.
Fang Yu took out his phone and looked at the name Ouyang Xiuyuan in his contacts.
Supporting a new family in Jiangnan, using coercion and inducement to integrate resources across the entire region.
Every major region had its top family.
But these families rarely extended their reach to other regions.
And what Ouyang Xiuyuan was doing now… seemed like he wanted to extend his reach across the entire world.
Such ambition was undeniably grand.
But Fang Yu didn’t like this unscrupulous way of doing things.
To enhance the Ouyang family’s influence, they even used Huaixu’s name for advertising.
“Ouyang Xiuyuan… you’re really going down the wrong path,” Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly.
To be honest, although he didn’t like Ouyang Xiuyuan’s methods, Fang Yu wouldn’t deliberately obstruct him.
After all, this was the path Ouyang Xiuyuan had chosen for himself, and it was his freedom.
Fang Yu’s original intention was not to meddle in others’ affairs.
But coincidentally, twice now, Ouyang’s actions had directly crossed paths with Fang Yu.
That left no choice.
Fang Yu thought for a moment and dialed Ouyang Xiuyuan’s number.
