Chapter 316 - 80: Lying in Wait! Run? Run for Your Life_2

,,,

At this moment, Feng Feiyi was unaware that all his actions were being watched by others.

"This is the place!"

Outside a gambling den.

Feng Feiyi stopped in his tracks, dressed in night clothes, along with his Postnatal Realm mastery.

Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to discover Feng Feiyi.

Looking at the gambling den before him, Feng Feiyi couldn’t help but clench his fists, as if recalling something, his gaze filled with resentment.

"Father! Mother! I will definitely avenge you!"

He murmured softly.

Feng Feiyi worked hard to calm himself, suppressing the brutality within his heart. After adjusting his breathing for a moment, Feng Feiyi gently entered the gambling den.

At this moment inside the gambling den.

It was still bustling, but soon.

"Smoke! Where’s the smoke coming from?"

"Such thick smoke!"

"Oh no, it’s on fire!"

"It’s on fire, run quickly!"

"My money, my money!"

"Don’t run, give me my money back!"

,,,

Seeing the sudden billowing smoke and the increasing temperature around, someone immediately realized it was a fire.

Immediately, they started running outside the gambling den.

But some, blinded by their losses, finally won a round and were about to take back their money—at this moment, they couldn’t care less about the fire.

All they could think about was getting their money back.

For a moment.

The entire gambling den descended into chaos.

Standing on the rooftop, watching as people continuously ran out from the gambling den, accompanied by thick smoke pouring out.

"Scaring them out before setting the place on fire, he’s not a wanton killer!"

Ye Liuyun suddenly said with a smile.

It was clear that this thick smoke was intentional.

Feng Feiyi did this intending to scare the people out of the gambling den first, then set it on fire—he didn’t want to harm the innocent.

"Sir, should we catch him now?"

Si Nan and the others didn’t expect to actually encounter what they were waiting for.

The culprit was right in front of them.

If they acted together, it would be impossible not to catch him, right?

As they spoke.

The fire was already reflecting out from the gambling den, indicating the fire had become intense.

"Why the rush, are you eager to put out the fire?"

With arms crossed, Ye Liuyun still showed no intention of making a move.

If they acted now, wouldn’t it be akin to helping Marquis Rong’gong save his gambling den?

Might as well let it burn for a while.

"Uh! That’s true!"

Helping Marquis Rong’gong put out the fire? Thinking of this, Si Nan decisively shook his head.

Indeed, better let it burn a bit first, after all, this fire was human-controlled and wouldn’t spread elsewhere.

So there’s no need to worry.

,,,

With the aid of inner strength, the fire quickly engulfed the entire gambling den.

Although it didn’t affect the surrounding buildings, the heat from the flames made the area significantly hotter, causing many to come out of their houses.

"There’s a fire! There’s a fire!"

"Someone, come quickly!"

Seeing such a huge blaze, some people, after realizing it, immediately wanted to put out the fire.

But unfortunately.

By the time these people brought water to douse the fire, the building was almost completely burnt.

Meanwhile.

On Feng Feiyi’s side, seeing the place mostly burned down, he too was breathing heavily, stopping his actions.

The prolonged consumption of inner strength to control the spread and direction of the fire was a significant drain on Feng Feiyi.

Even for a Postnatal Martial Artist.

He would feel extremely exhausted, though often a night of rest would be enough to recover.

"Great, another one burned down!"

With some energy recovered, Feng Feiyi looked at the gambling den and smiled slightly.

He turned to leave.

However.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun’s voice suddenly reached Feng Feiyi’s ears.

"Indeed! Great, on the first day, we caught the perpetrator!"

"!!!"

The sudden voice caused Feng Feiyi’s action of turning to leave to freeze in place.

Standing motionless.

Eyes wide in disbelief.

With somewhat stiff gestures, he turned his head to look at Ye Liuyun, momentarily at a loss for words.

But Ye Liuyun.

With a relaxed expression, shrugged, and said with a smile.

"Why not say something? Feng Feiyi!"

,,,

Hearing his name mentioned directly, Feng Feiyi’s eyes dimmed momentarily, realizing that after hiding for so long, he had still been discovered.

As for running away.

As a Postnatal Martial Artist, even if he risked his life, he couldn’t escape from a Grandmaster!

After a moment of silence.

Feng Feiyi let out a bitter laugh and removed the mask from his face.

"I’ve long heard that Lord Ye handles cases with divine skill, seeing it today, it truly is the case!"

,,,

If Ye Liuyun wasn’t thick-skinned enough, hearing such praise would somewhat embarrass him.

If he hadn’t been able to see the other’s Talent Entry, Ye Liuyun wouldn’t have suspected it was one of his men setting the fire—it would have taken at least a few days of investigation.

"So it was you!"

Upon seeing Feng Feiyi’s face.

Si Nan seemed even more taken aback.

Well, originally thought to be a First-class Martial Artist, it turned out to be a Postnatal Martial Artist.

"See, I told you if you don’t put in more effort, you’ll be surpassed by those under you!"

Shi Sheng, standing to the side, chuckled and teased Si Nan.

Originally, both were in the First-class Realm, but now, Feng Feiyi had directly become a Postnatal Martial Artist, his mastery had already surpassed Si Nan.
