y..."Wu Baiyu completely ignored Jin Deyuan and just said to the monster, "Dig in, my companion."The monster immediately opened its maw, blood dripping from its fangs onto the floor.It walked up to a...Hearing Fang Yu's question, Zhao ZiNan raised her knees and buried her head between her legs, as if trying to recall something.

Fang Yu didn't urge, waiting for Zhao Zi Nan's answer.

About three minutes later, Zhao Zinan raised her head and gently shook her head, saying, "Mr. Fang Yu... I've thought carefully about it, but I don't remember anything strange happening to me when I was a child."

"None Like, maybe when you suddenly fainted or you've been in a car accident, struck by lightning, or fallen off a cliff…" Fang Yu compared a few situations and said, "Think hard, have any of these kinds of things happened to you"

Zhao Zinan resolutely shook her head and said, "These... are gone."

"Really not" Fang Yu asked.

"Um..." Zhao Zijian replied firmly.

Her life story was utterly ordinary.

When she was a child, she was particularly shy. At the sight of strangers, she would cry. Over the years, this led to her parents not liking her very much.

When she grew up, she went to elementary school, middle school, and university... During her schooling years, because of her appearance, she was always the center of attention in her class and throughout the whole school. This made her, who was naturally shy and timid, very uncomfortable.

She once suggested not going to school and wanting to stay at home, having a private tutor complete her coursework.

But this request was refused by Zhao Jidao.

Zhao Jidao believed that Zhao Zinan must be exposed to the outside world, otherwise, his personality flaws would never be repaired.

From then on, Zhao Zinan would be severely scolded if she said she didn't want to go to school.

Therefore, she dared not say it again and could only endure the discomfort, going to school as usual.

But in the process, she became more timid and shy, to a pathological degree.

As soon as I see a stranger, even if I'm in a good mood that day, my mood will immediately plummet to the bottom, and I will even feel cold all over and tremble.

She has seen many psychologists, but none could treat her condition.

Due to increasingly severe personality defects, the elders in her family have become increasingly cold towards her, even treating her as mentally ill.

Even her parents didn't want to pay much attention to her anymore, leaving only her older brother Zhao Xuan who continued to care for her as he always had.

Zhao Zijian's first twenty-four years of life went by like this.

Apart from shyness and timidity, there were also the cold stares and scolding of family elders... There was no experience of the strange things Fang Yu had spoken of.

Fang Yu knew that Zhao Zinan had no need to lie in this matter, and her personality shouldn't lie either.

Could something have happened... that Zhao Zinan didn't know about, or forgot

But if that were the case, there would be no way to know or verify it.

"Fang Yu gege, I... am I very strange" Zhao Zi Nan seeing Fang Yu not speak, holding her knees, asked softly.

"It is indeed strange." Fang Yu replied.

“Oh…” Zhao Zinan lowered her head.

Fang Yu realized that the sentence was a bit ambiguous, so he said: "I'm talking about your physique, not you as a person."

Zhao Zi Nan was still bowing her head, hugging her knees, lost in thought.

Fang Yu knew Zhao Zinan's personality was fragile, and after thinking for a moment, he said again: "As for you...you are the purest person I've ever met, like a blank sheet of paper."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zijian lifted her head, her eyes shining like stars.

"Everyone is born as a blank sheet of paper," Fang Yu said, "But as we grow older and experience more things, we slowly become like a book. But you are different, you are still a blank sheet of paper, maybe just with a few more pages."

“And what about you” Zhao Zinan asked.

"Me" Fang Yu was taken aback and replied, "I should be a series of books, writing from the first to the thousandth part, but I may not finish it."

Hearing Fang Yu's strange analogy, Zhao Zinan inexplicably found it amusing and burst into laughter.

Then she realized what she had done was not right and quickly covered her face, explaining: "Fang Yu gege, I'm not laughing at you…"

"It's fine, laugh if you want to," Fang Yu said. "Don't take other people's opinions too seriously. When living in this world, the most important thing is to put yourself first, otherwise..."

At this point, Fang Yu suddenly thought of someone, his heart skipped a beat.

Zhao Zinan widened her eyes, staring at Fang Yu, wanting to hear the rest of his sentence.

But Fang Yu stood up and said, “It’s getting late. Let’s go back to rest.”

"...Hmm." Zhao Zijian replied obediently, then got up and followed Fang Yu away.

……

The next morning, as expected before, both branches of the Wang family sent teams to the temporary clubhouse of the Beidu Martial Arts Association.

Although the major families could not attend in person, they all sent their informants to loiter outside the temporary clubhouse, probing the situation.

It can be said that the entire Beidu martial arts world is silently paying attention to the development of this matter.

Wang Zhisan and Wang Hetian, the two heads of families, each with six attendants, stood at the door of the temporary clubhouse.

They were clad in white gold robes, emanating an aura of nobility and superiority.

This is the Wang family!

“We, shall meet with the Hollow Embrace.” Wang Hetian stared at Zheng Ze before him, saying coldly.

"The teacher is still resting and cannot meet with you two for the time being. Please come back another day..." Zheng Ze said, his heart pounding, following the lines Fang Yu had given him.

The Wang family is an unattainable presence for everyone in Beidu.

Under the Wang family's rule for many years, most people in Beidu truly believed that the Wang family were superior to others.

Zheng Ze is no exception.

Even now, facing the two heads of the Wang family, there was still a hint of fear in his heart.

Especially, after I just said that.

As expected, upon hearing Zheng Ze's words, Wang Zishan and Wang Hetong's faces instantly changed!

Especially Wang Zishan, his face was ashen, with a fierce glint in his eyes.

"Master Huixu, is this meant to be a brush-off!" Wang Zishan's voice rose in indignation. "He should know very well why we came! The reason we've remained so calm is solely out of respect for him!"

"But respect is mutual."

"If he treats our Wang family like this... don't blame us for ripping off the mask!"

In fact, Wang Zishan's words have already torn up the pretense of civility.

Wang Hetian remained silent, his face as dark as thunder.

And the twelve attendants who followed them also saw their auras rising.

Twelve cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage...

This lineup, placed in any region during the summer, could dominate.

Zheng Ze swallowed nervously, and a sense of fear crept into his heart inevitably.

"Lord Huixu may not wish to meet us, but at the very least... first, return Wang Wenshan to us. Second, we also demand Fang Yu who attacked yesterday be handed over to us!" Wang Hetan said coldly.

Between their words, the two factions of the Wang family became even more imposing.

The guards of the martial arts associations surrounding , were all pressed down by this aura, gasping for breath, their faces pale and eyes filled with fear.

Even at its peak, the Martial Arts Association could barely muster a handful of cultivators in the Divine Transformation stage.

The martial arts association today, don't even get me started!

The Martial Arts Association, it's all propped up by one man, Huixu!

But today, Huai Xu is not coming out... Then the Martial Arts Association becomes just a paper tiger, without even a shred of resistance.

Zheng Ze's face paled slightly, and he said nothing.

I repeat myself, hand them over. Or, Hui Xu, come out and talk to us face-to-face! Wang Hutian said coldly.

Now, he even stopped addressing him with honorifics.

It is clear that Wang Hantian has no intention of giving Huaixu any face.

And this sound was accompanied by the dispersion of true energy.

"Pfft!"

A guard knelt directly on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy: “My lords, this has nothing to do with us. Please show mercy and spare us, these lowly servants…”

Seeing one guard take the lead in kneeling and begging for mercy, the rest of the guards followed suit.

Anyway, the Martial Arts Association is already half dead, and they didn't want to stay here as guards anymore.

Besides, having offended the Wang family, the Martial Arts Association is essentially finished.

Now, discretion is the better part of valor!

Seeing this group of guards kneeling, Wang Hatian and Wang Zishan's faces both flashed with disdain.

A bunch of pushovers.

If the other party isn't insincere, they wouldn't really want to come to this kind of place themselves and lower their own status.

Wang He Shan looked at Zheng Ze and said, "You really should tell your teacher, so that his one mistake doesn't implicate so many innocent people."

Zheng Ze now doesn't know what to do.

Half an hour ago, Fang Yu called him and had him say those words just now, then hung up.

Now, facing this situation, he truly doesn't know what the right course of action is.

"Don't waste your time talking to such a lowlife."

Wang Zhisan took a few steps forward, suddenly reaching out with his right hand to grab Zheng Ze's neck, lifting him entirely off the ground.

"We can't see Wang Wenshan, we can't see Fang Yu... If you keep being so arrogant, you won't see either of them again." Wang Zishan said with bloodshot eyes and a murderous aura.

"Unfortunately, if hell doesn't exist, you'll never see Wang Wenshan again."

Just then, a languid voice came from beside him.

Wang Zhi Shan's face changed slightly, just as he was about to turn his head.

"Ah!"

But the next second, he felt a sharp pain in his right hand, cried out, covered his right arm, and retreated again and again.

Turning back again, I saw Fang Yu standing in front of Zheng Ze, with half a steaming bun still in his mouth.ly die at the hands of Fang Yu today!"If you tell me the Immortal King's location, I might let you go."
