ad emitted a faint red glow.At the same time, Fang Yu could feel a heat flow descending from the top of his head and entering his meridians. It flowed throughout his entire body.At this moment, Fang Y..."...If you want me to help you, you have to agree to one condition..." 。The presence in the shadows remained silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice. 。"I understand, lay out your terms." 。Li Tian asked. 。"After I help you take care of your target, I won't be going back to the basement." 。Another sound of chains rattling echoed from the shadows. 。Upon hearing this request, Li Tian's face shifted slightly, his brows furrowed as he said, "According to Mr. Yi's instructions, you are not yet able to be…"

"I didn't say I wanted to be free, I just want to stay in a better environment." 。“The presence in the shadows spoke,” 。

Li Tian showed a hesitant look on his face, obviously weighing the pros and cons. 。A moment later, he made his decision. 。"If you can help me get rid of that person, I can agree to your terms and afterward transfer you to a separate villa." 。"Li Tian said" 。A dry, cold laugh echoed through the room, accompanied by the rattling of chains. 。In the shadows, a dark figure slowly emerged. 。From the outline, it appears to be a slender human. 。But because the basement was too dark, I couldn't see this person's appearance. 。

The shadow walked in front of Li Tian. 。"You're the fourth generation of the Li family, aren't you" the shadow asked. 。Yes. 。"Li Tian replied," 。"You're braver than your father. Much braver." 。The shadow said 。

Li Tian didn't speak. 。His father, Li He, was also a recognized wastrel by the family. He truly embodied the saying "you can't lift mud with a stick!" Otherwise, the family's power wouldn't have fallen to Li Tian at such a young age of only twenty-four. 。

While Li Tian is completely different from his father, Li He. 。Li Tian is astonishingly strong, both in character and ability. He is very well-known in the Huaibei business world and is considered a peerless prodigy alongside Yu Ruobing of the Yu family. 。Even while still in university, Li Tian had already begun taking over most of the affairs of the Li family and did so exceptionally well. Not only did he earn praise from the older generation within the family, but he also gained the trust of major shareholders within the group. 。Therefore, upon graduating from university, Li Tian was immediately promoted to the position of president, becoming the helmsman of the Li Group. 。From the outside, Li Tian seemed to be a perfect person. He had education, intelligence, wealth, and status....

The only flaw he might have was his father, Li He. 。Besides his drunken escapades, Li He was known for bringing different women home to sleep with. 。The only contribution he made to the Li family was giving birth to such an excellent son as Li Tian. 。Besides, Li He also had only negative effects on the Li family! When Hei Ying mentioned Li He, Li Tian's face darkened. 。The person he hated most in his life was his father, without a doubt!"I haven't seen your father in a long time. I'd like to go out and have a drink with him later." 。"The shadow said" 。"The only thing you need to do when you go out is help me kill Fang Yu!" Li Tian said coldly. 。

The dark figure stood still, offering no reply. 。

The basement was deathly silent. 。"Actually, I've only met your father once. I scared him so badly that he peed himself, and I haven't seen him since." 。“What a complete waste,” the shadowy figure chuckled softly. 。Li Tian's face was getting worse and worse. 。"It must be hard for you to keep talking about your father, right" The shadow suddenly took two steps forward, its head slowly moving closer to Li Tian. 。Li Tian could smell a stench of decay, his brows furrowed as he took a step back. 。"I'm indeed very unhappy because the person I dislike most is Li He." 。Li Tian replied. 。"Why do you still bring up Yi Duliu's name in front of me!" The black shadow suddenly extended its head forward, leaning close to Li Tian and shouting. 。

Too close, even in the dim light, I could clearly see the contorted expression on her face. 。Li Tian was so startled that he nearly fell to the ground. 。

The shadow's head slowly retreated, and in a raspy voice it said, "This is my final warning. Never mention that name to me again." 。Even Li Tian, who was usually bold and outspoken, didn't dare to say another word at this moment. He could only nod in agreement. 。There is a private room inside. 。Fang Yu looked at Qin Lang beside him and asked, "Why don't you go next door and chat with that Joyce" "The conflict between Mr. Fang and Princess Joyce is irreconcilable, so I have no need to talk to him anymore." 。Qin Lang said 。。Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said, 。Given Mr. Fang's kindness to our Qin family, this is very necessary. 。Qin Lang said seriously. 。It seems Qin Wudao has instilled quite a bit into you. 。Fang Yu said 。Qin Lang shook his head and said, "This is my own decision, not at the behest of my grandfather." 。Mr. Fang, you're..."

"Alright, alright, I understand what you mean" 。Fang Yu reached out and patted Qin Lang on the shoulder, stopping him from continuing. 。

They had only exchanged a few words when the door to the room was knocked on. 。A waiter in uniform, carrying a tray of food, walked in. 。Distinguished Mr. Fang, here are your dishes, please enjoy. 。The waiter placed the dish in front of Fang Yu's table and said respectfully, 。After that, he bowed and turned to leave the room. 。"The service here is pretty quick." 。"Fang Yu looked at Qin Lang and asked, "Would you like to eat something"

"No need." 。Qin Lang said 。Fan Yu stopped speaking and ate in silence. 。Qin Lang looked at Fang Yu eating with gusto, his face showing a hesitant expression. 。Before Prince Joyce's words, it could be said that there was a bounty. 。He urged these families present to find a way to solve the problem with Fang Yu. 。

Whoever can do this will become a partner of the Nord royal family. 。

King Joyce was very direct with his words, and everyone present could understand him. 。Therefore, Qin Lang did not want Fang Yu to stay here for too long. 。He wasn't worried about anyone threatening Fang Yu's personal safety, but rather that after a conflict arose, Fang Yu would become the target of everyone and be seen as an enemy by both the Huaibei Commercial Association and the Huaibei Martial Arts Association. 。Then it will be difficult to wrap things up. 。Mr. Fang, when you finish eating, we'll leave here. 。After much deliberation, Qin Lang finally spoke. 。"Alright, but before I go, I need to pop into Joyce's room." 。"Fang Yu said" 。His reason for coming here was to discuss the Nord royal family. 。

Now, sitting in the private room, he could clearly sense several auras of sacred power emanating from the adjacent room. 。After a while, the door to the room was knocked on again. 。

Li Tian pushed open the door. 。"Mr. Fang, Prince Joyce would like to invite you for a drink. Would you be willing to..." Li Tian looked at Fang Yu 。Of course. 。Fang Yu picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth. He stood up and walked to Li Tian, saying, "Let's go." 。Qin Lang also wanted to get up, but Li Tian looked at Qin Lang with a smile. 。Although he didn't say it out loud, Qin Lang understood Li Tian's meaning. 。

Prince Joyce only wanted to see Fang Yu alone. 。Qin Lang, wait for me downstairs. I'll meet with Joyce and then we'll leave right away. 。"Fang Yu said" 。

"Good" 。"Qin Lang replied," 。Then, Fang Yu followed Li Tian toward the private room where Prince Joyce was located. 。The ten muscular guards standing at the door all turned to Fang Yu, their eyes sharp and intense. 。Although this group of people looked menacing, Fang Yu didn't even glance at them. He walked straight to the door of the private room. 。Li Tian knocked on the door, then pushed it open and walked in with Fang Yu. 。"Your Royal Highness, Joyce, I have brought Mr. Fang." 。Li Tian smiled faintly, then walked to the side. 。The room was very spacious, looking like a hall. 。Prince Joyce sat in the front row, flanked by two rows of people. 。On the left side, all the people were Europeans. Eight of them emanated an aura of divine power. 。This group of people are clearly members of the Nord royal family. 。On the left, we have some representatives of powerful clans and families with martial arts expertise.

Meanwhile, on the right side, there are some representatives of wealthy merchant families and secular aristocratic houses, including Chen Yi himself. 。Seeing Chen Yi, Fang Yu deliberately smiled at him. 。Chen Yi shuddered all over and immediately turned his head, not daring to meet Fang Yu's gaze. 。After Chen Luo's death, the Chen family lost their chance to become the dominant force in Huaibei. 。But unlike the fallen Zheng family, the Chen family had only lost one member, Chen Luo. 。Their limit is gone, but the foundation remains. 。The Chen family still possesses the strength and foundation of a top three martial arts family in Huaibei. 。In this case, Chen Yi's life was much better than before. 。

With Chen Luo no longer weighing down on them, and with the rest of his direct descendants being even more incompetent... 。Thus, Chen Yi suddenly became the core of the younger generation. 。 mentioned their grandmother... this grandmother clearly held a very high position in the Dazhao tribe. 。A cultist, and yet the tribe leaderThen... what she's doing, do the other members of the tribe...
