Chapter 110: Chapter 109: The Hunter’s Thirst for Blood (Part 9)_1

“`

I have to say, Yuan Shan that woman is quite strong!

At least, her skill with those black stripes is pretty effective against someone like me who relies on physical abilities.

If it hadn’t been for the Mythical Form, breaking free would have been quite a challenge.

Having escaped the encirclement, Fu Qian ran wildly, his mind racing.

No matter how you look at it, today’s plan to stir up trouble exceeded expectations.

Not only did I manage to infiltrate the restricted area, but I even had a direct confrontation with the boss of the Capital Night Watchman.

The Mythical Form skill is simply terrifying, if it weren’t for its enhancement, the move I pulled off earlier would have had unimaginable consequences.

Now, other than feeling a bit weakened from the overexertion, there are no other anomalies in my condition.

Of course, that move might have exposed me as not the real Henrik, but that’s not a problem at all.

Just the fact that “someone tried to secretly infiltrate the Night Watchmen Base” is enough.

It might even be better if they think Henrik has accomplices because of the disturbance we caused.

Now, it’s time to wait and see how things unfold, how everyone reacts.

…

As it turned out, changes occurred faster than I had anticipated.

The next morning, Fu Qian received a visitor.

It’s not who I expected, why did this person come to find me?

Looking at Wen Li knocking on the door downstairs, Fu Qian was puzzled.

True, I did give Wen Li the bookstore’s address when we parted ways yesterday.

But with her intellect, she should have understood that I was not welcoming visitors.

So why show up the very next day?

Fu Qian had a sneaking suspicion and got up to go downstairs.

After getting away yesterday, considering that Fang Xun’s name was already known to the Night Watchmen, he decided it would be best to return to the bookstore to avoid unnecessary suspicion.

This building had a typical layout with a store on the first floor and living quarters on the second; the previous incident had not had as much impact as one might think.

And the Night Watchmen’s efficiency is commendable.

By the time I returned yesterday, Qin Feng’s body had already been removed, and the place had been cleaned up.

The site now, except for being empty, didn’t present any restricted scenes.

“Mr. Fu!”

Seeing Fu Qian coming downstairs, Wen Li’s eyes lit up.

“I thought I got the wrong place.”

You might as well say you doubted I gave you a fake address.

With an impassive face, Fu Qian opened the door, gesturing her to come in and talk.

Stepping inside, Wen Li looked around and her expression immediately turned odd.

“Your store… Did it have a gas explosion?”

“You’re overthinking it, yesterday a Night Watchman just had his head explode here, that’s all.”

Fu Qian answered casually as he led her upstairs.

!!

Upon hearing this, Wen Li shuddered, her face turning pale.

She looked up carefully at Fu Qian.

“You… You killed a Night Watchman?”

Where did your thoughts go! Do I give off such a brutal impression?

Fu Qian was quite displeased with Wen Li.

“No.”

Ah!

Seeing Fu Qian’s expression, Wen Li instantly realized her mistake and covered her mouth in shock.

“Head explosion! I got it, just like at the banquet!”

“You encountered that Henrik yesterday? No wonder you reacted so quickly!”

The actual situation is much more complicated than that!

“You came to see me about something?”

Without further elaboration, Fu Qian led Wen Li upstairs and got straight to the point as soon as the door was closed.

“It’s not actually anything particularly important.”

“`

Wen Li hesitated slightly, then began to speak.

“I heard some rumors earlier that have something to do with the incident at the banquet yesterday…”

Oh?

Fu Qian instantly became spirited.

“Let’s hear it.”

“That Henrik, the reason he appeared at the banquet was because of a reason…

It’s said that he was originally a warehouse guard for the Night Watchman, but over the years, he was influenced by the aura of Transcendent materials, and his mind gradually became twisted.

In the end, he couldn’t resist the temptation, stole a crucial material, and fled. Unexpectedly, he lost his sanity and became bloodthirsty, continuously hunting Transcendents, and his targets were invariably those with mental powers.”

So that’s why he showed up at Houhai Manor, because the Chen Family is a rare family that cultivates mental-type skills.”

I see!

Fu Qian recalled the feeling of restricted movement he had yesterday.

To have a certain impact on him, that old gentleman’s realm must be quite decent.

“Transcendents with mental powers are relatively few, so for Henrik, the Chen Clan youngsters are undoubtedly a group of perfect targets. It is understandable why he risked appearing there.”

Wen Li spoke in one breath, her expression becoming forlorn.

“I actually find it hard to imagine, are Transcendent materials that dangerous? Enough to make a Night Watchman of not a low level lose his sanity.”

“It’s not necessarily the Transcendent materials.”

Fu Qian blinked, recalling the scene he had witnessed yesterday.

“Do you know there’s a place called the Sealed Area in the Night Watchmen Base?”

The Sealed Area!

Wen Li was shocked upon hearing this, apparently having some knowledge of it.

“Besides, if I remember correctly, you’re also of the mental type?”

“You’re right, I am,” she said with a wry smile.

“Actually, that’s also why I came to bother you today. I think he might have set his sights on me…”

“What makes you say that?”

“This morning when I was visiting an elder, I felt as if I was being followed on the way home, and it took a lot of effort to shake them off.”

Not surprising, leveling up like drinking water, being targeted as soon as you step out, you clearly have the treatment of a Son of Destiny.

“My ability tells me that the other party harbors clear malice, and I haven’t been in Shangjing for even a month, so by rights, I shouldn’t have any enemies, so…”

“Your reasoning sounds plausible, but why did you come to me?”

That…

Wen Li appeared bashful.

“Since it’s just my own feeling, I can’t ask the Night Watchmen for help, so I was thinking…”

?

Observing Wen Li’s hesitant expression, Fu Qian suddenly understood what she meant.

“You want me to return to my old trade and cover for you? Your capitalist habit of exploiting people is hard to change, huh!”

It must be said, the information Wen Li brought was very valuable, adding some details for him.

However, Fu Qian was interested not just in the content of the message, but also in the act itself by Wen Li.

Just yesterday, he had stormed into the Night Watchmen Base, aiming to stir the snake in the grass.

And then, Wen Li coincidentally ran into trouble and came looking for him.

Although the entire cause and effect seemed very natural with no flaws,

when linked together, there always seemed to be an odd taste to it.

The likelihood of Wen Li scheming against him wasn’t high, but what if she was unaware?

Of course, if what she said was true and she really was being targeted by Henrik, it would be like waiting for the rabbit by the tree stump.

Just keeping an eye on her would bring Henrik straight to him, greatly simplifying the mission.

No matter how you look at it, it’s worth a try.

Fu Qian turned these thoughts over in his mind and finally nodded in response to Wen Li’s expectant gaze.

Wen Li hadn’t expected Fu Qian to agree so readily; she was pleasantly surprised and immediately mentioned that her car was waiting downstairs.

Wait a minute!

Once he was in Wen Li’s car, Fu Qian vaguely felt that he had forgotten something.

Hadn’t they talked about compensation yet?
