Lord of the night.

Chapter 599 Nine Geniuses [Two in One]

"I?"

Zhao Ying'er hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Fang, sooner or later you will know my origins."

She smiled: "Not opposites."

Fang Che nodded.

The speculation in my mind goes deeper.

"Over there, there is a separate row of small houses, nine rooms. For nine little guys to live in."

Fang Che pointed and said, "There is also a separate martial arts training ground... other facilities such as bathing, washing face, and toileting are also available."

"That's great."

Ye Meng was actually also thinking about this issue.

After all, the little ones can't live in the inspection hall for a long time. This has a bad influence. A good functional department has been turned into a kindergarten. No one will say anything in the short term, but someone will definitely be dissatisfied in the long run.

Seeing that Fang Che had already made arrangements, Ye Meng felt relieved.

During this period, Shadow appeared several times and conveyed Fang Che's whereabouts, and Ye Meng reported everything meticulously.

Fang Xuncha began a rigorous inspection of the functional departments of Donghu.

Suddenly, a large number of people were killed in Donghuzhou.

And they are all officials.

This made Fang Tu's name suddenly famous again.

At the same time, Night Demons also appeared frequently and began to patrol all the Yi Xin Sect bases nearby.

And killed a lot of people.

There were also some people whose identities were due to their inspector status and it was inconvenient for him to attack, so Night Demon killed them all as well.

Suddenly, people were in a panic.

The Night Demon appeared in East Lake.

This matter is enough to keep the defenders busy.

However, the people killed by Night Demon were basically outside the city, and there seemed to be no sign of them moving into the city for the time being. This made Zhao Shanhe and the others feel relieved, but it also made them feel more tormented.

After all, the existence of the Night Demon is a thorn in the side of the Southeast Headquarters of the Guardians.

Such as knuckles in the throat.

The Southeast Headquarters began to set up checkpoints everywhere, and Fang Che's work became very heavy. Sometimes he would go out to crack down on corrupt officials during the day, and then at night he would be asked to participate in ambushes and capture night demons.

Fang Che took the opportunity to ask for a raise: We haven’t received your last promise yet.

Zhao Shanhe had no choice but to hold his nose and quickly report to his superiors.

Baiyunzhou is currently being cleaned up, but compared to Baixiangzhou and Donghuzhou, not many people are caught in Baiyunzhou. However, in the underground of Baiyunzhou, a real sea of ​​blood and corpses has been left.

The above-ground part of Baipingzhou is also being swept, and the underground part will be swept in during leisure time.

The two major cities took action at the same time, and coupled with the precedents of Donghuzhou and Baixiangzhou, everyone knew clearly the determination of the defenders to clean up the seventeen continents in the southeast.

Countless underworld forces withdrew from the southeast overnight.

There was also a wave of resignations, with all officials in the southeast feeling that being an official was too stressful...

For those officials who temporarily requested to resign, Fang Che's order was: arrest them all first, control them all, and wait for interrogation.

His thought is very simple: If you are a good official, why are you running away?
All in all, the southeast is now in a state of mourning. Except for Donghu and Baixiangzhou, every city is in chaos.

But the defenders ignored it and just maintained daily management. As for the chaos... whoever makes the chaos will be unlucky, so don't blame me for not warning you.

In this chaotic moment... Zhao Shanhe was shocked again.

Feng Yun, the chief commander of the Southeastern Headquarters of the Only Orthodox Church, came to the Southeastern Headquarters of the Guardians and walked to the door openly for a friendly visit.

Zhao Shanhe was stunned when he heard the news.

Why is there chaos in the 17 Southeastern Continents now? The most important thing is to catch those who believe in the only orthodoxy among you.

To put it bluntly, people from your sect are now bleeding every day.

You actually came here for a friendly visit?
But even though you may not understand, Feng Yun has already arrived at the door, and he is here for a friendly visit in an open and aboveboard manner. You can refuse to accept it, but you cannot hurt him.

Zhao Shanhe thought about it and decided to have a "friendly meeting" with Feng Yun.

Then I found out that this young master was actually here for a "friendly visit". Basically, we didn't talk about anything sensitive, we just came to get to know each other, introduce our responsibilities, and then sincerely request that in the future, our Orthodox Church in the Southeast will "coexist peacefully and prosper together" with the Southeast Headquarters of the Guardians.

Zhao Shanhe was so shocked that he lost his expression.

He really wanted to ask, Master Feng Yun, when you said this...how did you manage not to laugh?
After a polite but extremely meaningless conversation, Feng Yun made a request.

"In the Yin and Yang Realm, your captain Fang Che and I were once companions who shared life and death together. Now Captain Fang holds an important position, has great development, and his series of actions have shocked the southeast. I am also very happy for him, so this time I came here, I also want to visit my old friend."

The implication is that he wants to meet with Captain Fang.

"Well... I don't know where Captain Fang is... Let me ask."

Zhao Shanhe winked at An Ruoxing.

An Ruoxing started to contact Fang Che.

Fang Che was startled.

At this moment, he absolutely cannot meet Feng Yun. He has just met with the Starlight Leader and left. Who knows if he can detect that this is the same person?

Fang Che would never take any risk.

So he replied to An Ruoxing: "Please ask the deputy commander to tell Commander Feng Yun: We are enemies, and the difference is clear; I am a protector, and you are a demon; if we want to meet, it will be on the battlefield; whether we live or die, it's up to each of us to use our own methods!"

"I will return the words of my companions. I am ashamed to be called an old friend. I respectfully warn Young Master Yun: when you return this time, control your subordinates. If anyone attacks you, you will kill them without mercy!"

Strongly refuse!

When An Ruoxing heard these words, she felt as if she had eaten an ice cube on a hot day. She felt indescribably comfortable.

When it was handed over to Zhao Shanhe, Zhao Shanhe's eyebrows and eyes smiled.

"Well, Captain Fang is busy with official duties and I'm afraid he can't come. He has a letter for Young Master Yun."

Zhao Shanhe said hypocritically and was about to hand over the communication jade.

Obviously he wanted to use Fang Che's letter to disgust Feng Yun.

Feng Yun didn't take it, but smiled faintly and said, "Then let's find another opportunity in the future. As for Captain Fang's letter, I won't read it. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it when we meet in the future. It's the same."

Zhao Shanhe was stunned: "???"

You don't even look at this?

How well do you know the other person?

In fact, Zhao Shanhe was wrong. When Feng Yun saw that Fang Che didn't come, he knew that he didn't say anything good. How could he go up and ask for trouble?

It would be better not to watch it, which would make Zhao Shanhe and the others feel confused and depressed for a long time...

Because...the goal was not achieved.

So after a short "friendly meeting", Feng Yun took Feng Yi and Feng Er away, and asked: "We will still be in Donghuzhou in the next few days. Please forgive us if there is any trouble."

What could Zhao Shanhe say? He could only accept it.

Watching Feng Yun leave, Zhao Shanhe felt a suffocating pain in his heart.

It was an indescribable feeling that he couldn't breathe in or out. After a long time, he let out a loud fart with a bang. Then he said to An Ruoxing with a dark face: "Did you see? This Feng Yun is not something I can deal with."

An Ruoxing praised: "You are so smart! You even figured this out!"

Zhao Shanhe's face suddenly turned dark and unbearable to look at...

After leaving the Southeast Headquarters, Feng Yun was like a tourist, wandering around the scenic spots and historical sites in Donghuzhou.

Looking at the escort vehicles of Tianxia Escort Agency, they began to go out in teams with flags.

Feng Yun's eyes were dim.

"The family news came, about Young Master Xing's arrival in Baiyunzhou...but there was no mention of Tianxia Escort Agency and Xingmang."

Feng Yi reported via telepathy.

"Yeah. That was expected."

Feng Yun nodded calmly: "How is the information on Xingmang going?"

"Everything in the past has traces to follow, but some parts... should be the period from when Xing Shao arrived at Baiyunzhou, some information became blurred, and the light was covered up. Until according to the time point, Deputy Chief Priest Yan was promoted to the Tianxia Escort Agency, and Xingmang was mentioned again, but then disappeared. But later this was obviously the work of the deputy chief principal." Feng Yidao said.

Feng Yun smiled slightly: "Feng Xing did a good job. In fact, if we hadn't stumbled here by accident, he would have kept this news secret. He should be very proud now... The secret back-up plan was actually valued by the deputy chief leader... Hehe."

"There is still no news about Night Demon."

"It was said that he was active outside the city a few times recently. But then he disappeared."

"Ah."

Feng Yun frowned and said, "This Southeast is really confusing. After arriving here, I found that both Deputy Chief Master Yan and Military Advisor Dongfang have their eyes on this side. But my rank is not high enough... In this situation where both sides are intertwined, I dare not do anything, for fear of affecting the layout of both sides. Moreover, the higher-ups don't give me any information... I have to rely on myself to explore, no wonder it was so difficult for Prime Minister Wu at the beginning."

"Perhaps Vice Chief Master Yan sent me here just to let me maintain peace in the southeast... so that he and Military Advisor Dongfang can develop undercurrents calmly..."

Feng Yun sighed, thinking about something absentmindedly for a long time, and then said: "Feng Yi, do you know what I am thinking about now?"

"I don't know." Feng Yi lowered his head and looked submissive.

"I was thinking... the Feng family is nothing... they don't even get a whiff of any important decision-making. And the younger generation of our Feng family is still scrambling for a position in the family. How short-sighted!"

He heaved a long sigh of relief, looked up at the white clouds in the sky, and said softly: "Only when you reach the real cloud... like the position of Vice Chief Master Yan and Eastern Military Advisor, will you be qualified to see through the world at a glance."

I didn't dare to say anything when I opened the first and second seals.

"We will leave in a few days. We will go to Yi Xin Sect first to meet the master of Yin Shen Palace who can change the situation. Then we will go to other continents and meet Mo Gan Yun, Song in the Rain, Qiu Yunshang, Jing Shuanggao, Dong Yunyu, Feng Xiangdong, and Xue Wanren."

Feng Yun smiled: "You can't kill them. If any of them die, it will cause instability in the southeast. But it is also right to make a good relationship with them."

"Good fate?"

The seal is not solved.

How can you, the young leader of the Feng family who advocates righteousness, have any connection with the descendants of these guardians?
"Yes, good karma."

Feng Yun smiled: "Even if they are enemies, we can still make friends."

"..."

Feng Yi and two others bowed their heads.

Sorry, we didn't understand at all.

But we don’t need to understand.

……

Fang Che simply disappeared, and he was usually not seen even in Prince Fang's Mansion or the Inspection Office.

Now, not only Fang Che, but even Ye Mo cannot see Feng Yun. It will take at least one month for them to not see this person.

One month is the minimum safe time given by Fang Che himself.

If it was Feng Xing, after having just seen Xing Mang in the morning, Ye Ye Mo or Fang Che would dare to meet him the next day. But for Feng Yun, there was no confidence at all!

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Fang Che went to the Lanxin Moxiang Bookstore.

The old thief said three days, but it's already six days and he hasn't sent the person back yet.

Ye Meng and Zhao Ying'er asked several times a day. After three days, they started asking more than ten times a day, dozens of times...

Fang Che couldn't stand it anymore and went to the door in person.

Could it be that this old guy actually dares to traffic people for me?

When he went there, he found that the bookstore was closed. But this was not a problem for Fang Che.

He turned around and went to Sikong Dou's small courtyard.

Sikong Dou was standing in the yard with a sad face, frowning and thinking with his hands behind his back.

"Brother! I'm here! Where are the kids?"

Fang Che stepped inside.

Seeing the old thief turning around and about to run, he quickly took two steps and grabbed him: "Why are you running? Did something go wrong?"

Sikong Dou turned around, his old face, like a dried orange peel, showing infinite confusion.

He said humbly: "Brother, I am sorry for you..."

"What's wrong?" Fang Che frowned immediately.

Sikong Dou pulled Fang Che's sleeve and said, "Sit down and talk first."

Fang Che's expression turned ugly: "I can just stand and talk."

Sikong Dou rubbed his hands, coughed a few times, looked at Fang Che's face carefully, and remained silent for a long time.

"What the hell is going on! Hurry up!"

Fang Che was getting impatient.

Sikong Dou coughed again and said cautiously: "Brother, you are my real brother. To be honest, I have never been so kind to Sikong Ye..."

"If you have something to say, say it quickly! If you have a fart, say it quickly!"

"These children..."

Sikong Dou looked at Fang Che pleadingly: "Can you leave a few for me?"

"Stay? How many more?!"

Fang Che's eyes widened in shock. "Brother, have you become addicted to being a thief these years? Or are you addicted to extorting bribes as an official? Why do you feel uncomfortable if you don't take some bribes from people who pass through your hands? That's an official. How can you have such great power?"

Sikong Dou said humbly: "I also know it's wrong, I came to discuss it with you..."

"Not negotiable!"

Fang Che flatly refused!

I've been training you for so long, and you want me to do it just because you want it? What a sweet dream!

"Think about it. Think about it."

Sikong Dou begged humbly.

He regrets it even more now.

If Fang Che had proposed it at that time and he had continued to give it to them, he could have taken the opportunity to have two disciples as his apprentices, and at the same time find one for Sikong Ye as his successor... There would have been no problem at all.

Fang Che would definitely agree.

but now……

Haha, they all delivered the spiritual liquid with a flattering face. If they wanted to detain a few of them, and to detain them from Fang Che, that would be harder than climbing to the sky!

But who knew at that time that these little guys were so talented... and most importantly, they were so able to endure hardships!

Three and a half days of purgatory, and no one said a word.

Sikong Dou felt distressed when he saw this.

"No need to think about it!"

Fang Che said coldly: "Hand him over to me!"

"Brother, just for Sikong Ye's sake..."

Sikong Dou was anxious: "Two! Is it not enough to have two?"

"Not even half of it!"

Fang Che was extremely determined.

Sikong Dou looked depressed, as if he had lost his parents.

I feel extremely lost.

"What do you want to do?" Fang Che frowned and looked at him sideways.

"What can I do? I just want to keep two of them as my apprentices..." Sikong Dou looked at Fang Che hopefully.

"That won't work."

Fang Che simply shook his head: "I'm asking them to learn to be thieves from you, they are such talented people? That's such a waste."

Sikong Dou almost choked up: "What's wrong with being a thief? Is stealing against the law?!"

"Yes, stealing is against the law!"

Fang Che crossed his arms and said, "I'm going to catch you!"

"..."

Sikong Dou was speechless.

Fang Che squinted at him and said, "Brother, what are you thinking? The little guys followed me and received training all the way. At the very least, they can become guardians. When their cultivation is high, they can become protectors and enter the Cloud Weapon Chart in the future... But you actually want them to learn to steal from you?"

"Do you think they would agree to this? Giving up their bright future to become a thief?"

Fang Che was speechless: "This is not a question of whether I agree or not. Even they themselves can't agree, right?"

Sikong Dou looked frustrated: "That's why I need your help."

"There's no way I can help!"

Fang Che refused outright.

Sikong Dou was extremely frustrated, blinking his eyes and said, "Sikong Ye is also in need of a successor now... He controls the underground world, so he also needs disciples or something... For the sake of future inheritance, right?"

"That's his business. He didn't look for me."

Fang Che snorted: "Hand him over to me now!"

It is clear that there is no room for negotiation.

Sikong Dou was extremely resentful, but under Fang Che's coercion, he had no choice but to wave his hand and release the little guys from his territory.

The first thing the little ones saw when they came out was Fang Che, and they cheered immediately.

In an instant, Fang Che felt as if his whole body was covered with little monkeys.

Fang Che's face was full of smiles. He patted this, pinched that, and reached back to lift the little girl off his neck by her butt.

Looked around carefully.

The little ones are all white and in good spirits; each one of them is full of energy, and their eyes are distinct black and white, like circles of lake water.

Shiny.

Fang Che noticed that even everyone's eyebrows were so clean that you could clearly count each one.

Her eyes seemed to be gleaming with rainbows, and her skin had the hue of jade.

Fang Che was immediately overjoyed and asked Sikong Dou, "Have you cleansed your essence and marrow? How many times?"

Sikongdou said listlessly and frustratedly: "Third time...ah!!"

Fang Che squinted his eyes. No wonder this old man was so anxious. So that's why. For those with Grade A qualifications or above, they need to cleanse their essence and marrow three times within six days...

This is already in the realm of super genius!
Fang Che reached out and touched all nine of the little guys, detected their spiritual energy, and said, "Are you interested in these three?"

He was referring to Ren Chun, Ren Ping and Ren Dong.

Sikong Dou nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes!"

He didn't expect Fang Che to be so accurate in his selection! He was right, he had his eyes on these three!

"You want to eat shit!"

Fang Che's face turned dark.

You actually want my leader and my team pet! If I leave the remaining six behind, won't I lose my soul?

But it must be said that the nine little guys now have talents beyond the A-level heavenly level. Such talents have basically exceeded Fang Che's expectations.

Fang Che took his men and left.

Sikong Dou got anxious and grabbed Ren Ping, saying, "Just leave this one for me. Isn't one enough?"

Little Ren Ping was held by him, looking confused.

"Leave no one behind!"

Fang Che was determined.

Sikong Dou was really anxious, he pulled the other party and said: "Look, look, this kid is a born thief, a thief in the making, look at his head, his muscles, his body... look, look..."

In an instant, the nine children were all confused.

Eight of them turned around and looked at Ren Ping in a daze.

Ren Ping's confused look slowly turned into extreme embarrassment. Tears welled up in her eyes and her face turned red, revealing extreme shame and anger. She slowly opened her mouth, half of her sharp white teeth were exposed, and she was about to bite Sikong Dou's hand that was holding her.

Ren Chun grabbed Ren Ping's hand and squeezed it hard.

Even though I didn't bite it, tears were streaming down my face.

Fang Che looked at Sikong Dou speechlessly.

You really know how to speak.

"You are the born thief! You are the born thief!" Fang Che had to retort, otherwise little Renbing would probably be shrouded in this psychological shadow for the rest of his life.

"Yes, I am!" Sikong Dou admitted anxiously, "That's why I..."

After saying this, I suddenly saw tears on Xiao Renping's face and a look of resentment and shame.

Suddenly stopped talking.

Sikong Dou was extremely depressed. He waved his hands and said desperately, "You guys go..."

He understood instantly.

Even if there was still a glimmer of hope, after I said these words, 'I'm a born thief, a complete thief,' there was no hope at all.

Thieves... have been objects of contempt since ancient times.

No matter how young he is, his self-esteem is definitely not something he can handle.

Fang Che sighed: "Then I'll leave."

Sikong Dou squatted on the doorstep with his shoulders hunched like a monkey, lowered his head and waved his hand.

"It's all there!"

Ren Chun shouted, "A drop of water will be repaid with a spring; a great favor will be never forgotten in this life! I salute you, senior! Thank you for your help! Whatever I achieve in this life will be a day to repay you!"

Ren Chun took the lead, and the nine children lined up and bowed deeply to Sikong Dou.

Including letting it be.

Although the little guy's face was still wet with tears, he still stood obediently in the queue and bowed deeply.

This was not Fang Che's idea, but something Ren Chun and the others had already discussed. They knew how much favor they had received!
"We will remember your kindness forever! I hope we can repay you in the future!"

Watching Fang Che and Jiu Xiao leave with his eyes wide open, Sikong Dou slapped himself on the mouth in frustration: "Is that your mouth?! Even a weasel's fart is not as stinky as yours!"
