In this room, there are two people sitting and one person standing.
With a swift turn, the door was shut, and Shu Shangmingâs icy gaze locked onto the standing young man.
"You actually dared to return, Diao Deyi!"
At this moment, the highest echelon of Foolish Underworldâs power, the three Hall Masters with the strongest combat strength, had gathered together.
And they faced a human traitor, who had recently killed two Hall Masters, the former Captain of the Yangshen Hall, Diao Deyi!
"Lord Hall Master, why such fury? I should have told you all long ago that I would return. Whether itâs Master Anâs sacrifice or Wu Hall Masterâs sacrifice, everything is valuable!"
As Fang Yuâs words fell, an overwhelming and terrifying aura erupted almost simultaneously from the three Hall Masters, pressing down on Fang Yu!
Cold sweat slightly seeped from Fang Yuâs forehead, yet his expression remained unchanged.
"You sure dare to speak, Diao Deyi! Wu Lvzhu was already beyond salvation when he completely demonized, but what about An Menyi? How dare you kill An Menyi too! This is not what was promised!"
Ming Tianqi slapped the table and stood up!
At that time, when he and Ye Zhongyu were fiercely fighting the demon leader at the support point, they bumped into Fang Yu rushing over, thinking everything was still on track. Little did they know, upon returning, they heard the tragic news of An Menyi.
Foolish Underworld only had a few Hall Masters to start with, and losing two top powers back-to-back made their future position above the three major martial arts schools uncertain!
"Diao Deyi, we need an explanation."
[Ye Zhongyu] remained the most composed, but the intent to kill was the strongest among the three.
"Diao Deyi, think carefully about your next words. One misstep, and I might not even leave you whole!"
Shu Shangming said coldly.
Seeing this, Fang Yu didnât delay, and directly raised what was in his hand.
"Into the tigerâs den, how can one seize the cub! Lords Hall Masters, the situation at that time forced me to sacrifice Master An, otherwise, how could I gain the demonsâ trust? How could I access the secret location where Lord Lan resides? Even now, Iâve obtained the key to enter the secret place! As long as you Hall Masters gather your strength now and raid the secret location, catching the demons off guard, this battle, we humans will surely win!"
What?!
As Fang Yuâs words descended, the three Hall Mastersâ expressions simultaneously changed.
"Lord Lan, have you truly found Lord Lanâs hiding place? Found the demon stronghold?"
Ming Tianqi asked urgently.
Compared to this intel, An Menyiâs sacrifice seemed not so hard to accept.
"Demon stronghold... Lord Lan... If we can truly wipe them out, all threats currently facing Tianyuan Town will vanish!"
"Alright, alright! Diao Deyi, if the information is true, the position of Yangshen Hall Master is yours from today onward!"
No reward or word held significance for Fang Yu at this moment.
He sought answers from the top figures of Tianyuan Town; that was what truly mattered.
"Lords Hall Masters, I am willing to stake my life that everything I say is without falsehood, but it is only a matter of time before the demons notice I slipped out, so we must act swiftly! Act faster than the demons, strike their stronghold before they realize my betrayal! Therefore, I boldly ask the Lords Hall Masters to engage the ancestors of the Five Great Families, and the forces of the five families and three major martial arts schools, to gather and head to the secret place!"
Fang Yu knelt on one knee, pleading sincerely.
His eyes slightly shimmering with tears, Moistening Eyes played its role, combined with the acting skills honed during undercover days, showing no visible flaw on the surface.
"No need to rush, first tell me the location of the secret place, Iâll check if the information is authentic..."
Ming Tianqi had not finished his words before being interrupted by Fang Yu.
"My lord! There is but a single opportunity! Only by catching them unprepared can we turn our advantage into victory! Such actions akin to alerting the snake would waste all my efforts!"
Fang Yu angrily glared over, disregarding hierarchical etiquette at the moment.
But Ming Tianqi merely sneered.
"You, who just betrayed us, truly expect us to trust you completely? Someone! Bring the [True Words Candle]!"
Just as Ming Tianqi finished speaking, a resounding voice echoed as if penetrating walls, reverberating mightily within the room.
"No need, just let this kid lead the way. Whether truth or lies, weâll know at a glance."
The three Hall Masters heard the words, their expressions simultaneously changed drastically, and they responded with bowed heads.
"Yes!"
"All listen to the ancestorâs arrangements!"
Bet on the right horse.
Fang Yu let out a sigh of relief in his heart.
With such a commotion in Foolish Underworld, if the ancestors of the Five Great Families emerged, they would definitely investigate the Foolish Underworld incident.
Thus, the chance of these ancestors remaining within Foolish Underworld is high.
Even if these ancestors wished to leave, after losing combat strength, Foolish Underworldâs Hall Masters would likely do their utmost to retain these ancestors to ensure Foolish Underworldâs safety.
Fang Yu was taken out of the room by the three Hall Masters, looking around but seeing no one.
Only some vague presence seemed to lock onto him.
Upon opening the door to the secret place, they would not have the time to watch me closely.
Fang Yuâs footsteps gradually steadied, everything was unfolding in the direction he envisioned.
