Chapter 342 - 155: Shock, County Town

Chapter 342: Chapter 155: Shock, County Town

A place like the Music Bureau wasn’t somewhere you could enter just by having money; you needed status as well.

A truly refined and elegant establishment!

Ordinary places didn’t have a Music Bureau.

At the very least, a city had to be the size of a County Town to have one.

An ordinary County Town would only have common pleasure houses.

Although South County was just a small County Town, it was still a County Town nonetheless.

He arrived outside a private room on the top floor of the Music Bureau.

Fang Xing swept the room with his spiritual sense, taking in the entire situation at a glance.

Inside the private room, there was no scene of debauchery. There was only a middle-aged man in a purple robe talking with a man in white.

Both men had a True Qi Realm Cultivation. The man in white had already reached True Qi Perfection.

The middle-aged man in the purple robe, on the other hand, was at the Middle Stage of True Qi.

Listening to their conversation, Fang Xing was certain that the man in white must be an Evil Cult Elder.

’The Governor of the South County has the deepest ties to the Void Sect. It looks like this Cult Elder is almost certainly from the Void Sect.’

Fang Xing’s mind was made up.

In the next instant, he vanished.

Like a ghost, he appeared out of thin air inside the private room.

His sudden appearance startled both men.

"Who are you?"

The Governor of the South County, clad in his purple robe, stood up, his sharp gaze fixed on Fang Xing.

"You’re an Elder of the Void Sect?" Fang Xing asked, looking at the man in white.

Hearing this, the man in white’s expression changed slightly. "I don’t understand what you’re talking about."

Catching the subtle change in the man’s expression, Fang Xing was now completely certain.

"Who might you be?"

The man in white was wary. He had sensed a trace of an aura.

A Cultivation at the Middle Stage of True Gang—it was impossible for him not to be nervous.

"The dead don’t need to know too much," a faint voice said.

In the next instant, Fang Xing struck like lightning. Gang Qi swept out, instantly suppressing both men where they stood.

The terrifying Gang Qi washed over them, pressing down like a mountain. It was incredibly difficult for them to even move a finger.

"SHOO—!" With a flick of his finger, a sliver of golden Flame Sword Qi shot out, piercing straight through the Governor’s brow and killing him on the spot.

Then, Fang Xing reached out, gently placed his hand on the Governor’s head, and with a twist and a pull...

...he ripped the Governor’s head clean off.

Before the headless body could even spurt blood, a golden flame engulfed it, instantly incinerating it into a dazzling Qi Blood Essence.

The movements were fluid and seamless, executed in a single, smooth motion!

!!!

Witnessing this scene, a chill erupted in the white-robed man’s chest and spread up his spine.

Fang Xing put away the head and the Qi Blood Essence, then turned his gaze to the man in white.

Terror, utter shock!

That one glance made the man in white feel the encroaching presence of death.

"Don’t... don’t kill me. I’ll tell you anything you want to know," he said, forcibly suppressing the fear in his heart as he looked at Fang Xing.

"BUZZ—!"

Fang Xing ignored him. A mysterious light filled his pupils as he instantly activated Divine Illusion.

’Even in fear, people can still lie, and I don’t want to waste time.’

After some questioning, Fang Xing obtained a crucial piece of information.

He wasn’t the only one in South County City. In a manor on the outskirts of the city, there was also a Void Saint Mother.

"What is the Void Saint Mother’s strength?" Fang Xing asked the man in white.

"Peak of True Gang Ninth Layer."

The man in white answered blankly.

’True Gang Peak? That’s only equivalent to a High Realm Great Demon. Hmm, not a bad haul. That’s at least a million Enhancement Points...’

The thought flashed through Fang Xing’s mind.

He continued his questioning, but to his surprise, the manor on the outskirts wasn’t a stronghold for the Void Sect.

Instead, it was connected to a Martial Dao Upper Sect.

The manor belonged to a True Disciple of the Supreme Profound Upper Sect.

The Void Saint Mother was merely a guest there.

Hearing this, Fang Xing frowned.

The Supreme Profound Upper Sect!

This was the first Martial Dao Upper Sect he had come into contact with, and one he had clashed with several times.

The most serious incident was when he was hunted down by the Upper Sect’s Xu Ye.

He still remembered it vividly.

However, the True Disciple at this manor wasn’t Xu Ye, but someone else.

Ji Bodda!

A being whose Cultivation had already reached True Gang Perfection.

He was more than a cut above the True Disciple Xu Ye from back then.

He was also a core prodigy of the Supreme Profound Upper Sect.

Furthermore, he learned from the man in white that Ji Bodda’s master was an existence who had reached the Celestial Human Realm.

A disciple of one of the Six Saints of Supreme Mystery!

’A disciple of an old monster like that probably has some incredibly powerful treasures on him. This is going to be tricky...’

Fang Xing’s heart sank a little.

He didn’t want to get involved with these Martial Dao Upper Sects unless it was absolutely necessary.

Especially not their prodigies.

But now, it seemed he had no choice but to fight.

He could contend with a True Gang Great Perfection expert. With his Divine Technique Martial Arts, it wouldn’t be difficult.

He was confident that even against a prodigy from an Upper Sect, he could fight them to a draw, even if he couldn’t kill them.

His Primordial Spirit, Divine Soul Secret Techniques, and Flesh Body were all at a level that could crush his opponents.

However, who knew what kind of treasures a prodigy from an Upper Sect might have.

As a disciple of one of the Six Saints of Supreme Mystery, and with Ji Bodda being a prodigy on the Hidden Dragon List...

...there was no doubt he possessed a trump card similar to the Destiny Decree.

Fang Xing considered using the white-robed man’s identity to lure her out, but the answer he received made his heart sink.

It was a one-way contact!

The Void Saint Mother would only summon him when she needed something. If he initiated contact, it would be a signal that something was wrong.

’Fuck, she’s as steady as an old dog. So damn cautious.’

Hearing the answer, Fang Xing’s eye couldn’t help but twitch.

If he couldn’t lure her out, the only option left was to pay a visit himself.

Having gotten the information he wanted...

...Fang Xing activated his Sun Golden Flame to perform Refinement on the man’s Flesh Body and Qi Blood, turning it into Qi Blood Essence, and collected his Storage Pouch.

His figure silently vanished from the private room in the Music Bureau.

...

Outside a manor on the outskirts of South County, Fang Xing’s figure appeared.

Judging from the information he had gathered, the Supreme Profound Upper Sect’s True Disciple, Ji Bodda, had a rather deep relationship with the Void Saint Mother, who was using the alias Li Chuxue.

The Void Saint Mother was using her connection to him as cover.

Of course, whether Ji Bodda knew her true identity was unclear.

But one thing was for sure: those two were having an affair!
