Release time 2025-03-06 00:42:49

Both Qi Rongdao and Cao Xin, who were engaged in conversation, changed their expressions.
Because, that sound is coming from the basement!
“What’s going on?! Didn’t you just take Fang Changsheng in?” Qi Rongdao stood up and asked in a deep voice.
“I locked him up in the deepest, most secure cell and put ten Spirit-Suppressing Shackles on him! And he’s injured so badly he can’t even speak… how could this be… It couldn’t be him?!” Cao Xin’s face flickered with uncertainty as he said.
Qi Rong’s face was as dark as thunder. He stood there, deep in thought for a few seconds, then with a flick of his sleeve, he walked out of the office.
Thinking of what might happen, Cao Xin’s face turned pale, and he hurriedly followed.
Three minutes later, in front of the gate to the deepest cell in the underground prison’s most secure wing, stood a large group of martial artists.
At this time, the cell door was open.
Qi Rong and Cao Xin stood at the front.
They stared straight ahead, mouths agape, expressions frozen in horrified disbelief.
And the crowd of warriors behind them all wore similar expressions.
Everyone was stunned by the sight before them.
Across from them, a massive hole appeared in the thick, special walls of the cell!
The outline of this hole looks like a handprint!
Outside the opening, connecting it was a black underground passage blasted out.
From afar, a glimmer could be seen in the distance.
Everything before my eyes speaks volumes.
Just moments after being sent to his cell… Fang Changsheng escaped again.
And, from the handprint indentation in the cell wall, it can be seen that… Fang Changsheng relied on himself to leave here…
How could this be possible!?
Wasn’t he beaten badly by the old man?
He clearly still had ten layers of Spirit Suppression Shackles on him! He couldn’t use his true energy at all!
How could he have pierced through such a thick wall without using his qi? <<<
For a moment, the group of martial artists present were all struck by shock and confusion.
“Impossible! This can’t be!” Cao Xin’s reaction was the biggest. He walked into the cell, looking at the empty prison cell and the spiritual binding chains that were torn apart and lay on the ground. For a moment, he couldn’t believe it!
He was still thinking about how to torture Fang Changsheng five minutes ago!
In a blink of an eye, Fang Changsheng had escaped!
He wanted revenge on Shi Mu Yu, but in the end, he got nothing!
He’s not giving up!
“…President, Fang Changsheng is injured. Even if he runs, he can’t get far! We should immediately dispatch our people to hunt him down all over Dongdu…” Cao Xin turned to Qi Rong, widening his eyes and saying.
“That’s enough,” Qi Rong said, looking at Cao Xin with a frown. “The facts are so obvious, can’t you see it?”
“What facts?” Cao Xin asked, bewildered.
Qi Rong folded his arms and wore a grim expression as he said, “Fang Changsheng, you and that so-called master were in cahoots all along. You staged a performance before us to obtain the key that unlocks the Grand Sanctuary.”
At this point, Qi Rong realized it immediately.

This series of actions is quite obvious.
After hearing Qirong’s words, Cao Xin stood there for several seconds, his face turning ashen with rage. He gritted his teeth, seething with anger!
“President, please order the immediate pursuit of Fang Changsheng! At least we can confirm he is still within Dongdu…” Cao Xin said.
“No need.” Qi Rong said, his eyes flashing with cold light. “Fang Changsheng… is not someone we can afford to provoke.”

“Guild Master, this is the second time he’s directly challenged our Dongdu Martial Arts Association! Our reputation and dignity have been trampled underfoot! If we let this continue…” Cao Xin said angrily.
“Don’t worry, we can’t take him down ourselves, but someone will.” Qi Rong said with a smile.
Although Fang Changsheng toyed with me once, I felt very unhappy about it.
But in fact, Fang Changsheng’s escape was a good thing!
Since Fang Changsheng and his companions used this method to swindle the key, it shows that they are very interested in the Great Sanctuary!
Fang Changsheng, is very likely to take that key to open the doors of the Great Sanctuary!
In this way, he will become the immortal’s offering! A sacrifice for the true opening of the Grand Temple!
Therefore, Qi Rong’s original plan unexpectedly became a more decisive two-pronged strategy in the midst of twists and turns!
This time, not only can we get rid of Fang Changsheng, but also complete the order of Dao Kong Shangxian and open the Great Saint Hall!
“Fang Changsheng…you really worked hard to put on such a good show to cooperate with me. Hahaha…” Qirong’s smile couldn’t be suppressed any longer, becoming increasingly obvious.
Seeing the smile on Qi Rong’s face and the cold glint in his eyes, Cao Xin no longer spoke.
Under Qi Rongdao’s command for many years, he knew that Qi Rongdao would only show such an expression when he was confident and prepared.
“Fang Changsheng, just wait to die…” Cao Xin gritted his teeth, thinking to himself.
……
About five kilometers from the Dongdu Martial Arts Association, there is a restaurant.
Fang Yu and Bai Ran, restored to their original appearances, along with Su Lengyun, were sitting in a private room on the second floor.
Several dozen tea snacks were laid out on the table.
The key just obtained from Qi Rong’s hands was placed on Fang Yu’s desk.
While Fang Yu was happily eating a plate of shrimp dumplings.
“There’s a lot of room for improvement in your acting. At least to me, your expressions seem a bit stiff,” Fang Yu said, looking up at Bai Ran beside him.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Fang. This is the first time I’ve ever done something like this…” Bai Ran said apologetically.
“It’s fine, I was just stating my perspective. You managed to easily deceive those high-level members of the Martial Arts Association just now, and that’s enough.” Fang Yu said.
Bai Ran nodded and stopped talking.
Su Lengyun sat in the seat to Fang Yu’s left. Whenever Fang Yu finished the tea in his cup, she would immediately pour more for him.
After pouring several cups of tea, seeing Fang Yu chat about everything but the key on the table, Su Lengyun couldn’t help but ask, “Feather brother, this key… can it really open the door to that Great Sanctuary?”
At this, Fang Yu didn’t answer. Instead, he put down his chopsticks, picked up the keys on the table, and narrowed his eyes to observe for a while.
The fact that the Eastern Capital Martial Arts Association used this key as a reward is a strange move in itself.
If there were truly valuable treasures within the Great Hall, how could they so easily offer the key as a reward?
The bounty for Fang Changsheng is so enticing that it would draw in martial artists looking for a reward, making the need to choose the Saint Hall’s key completely unnecessary.
Doing so would seem contrived.
The East Capital Martial Arts Association deliberately sent out such a key.
So, why would they do that?
Through a bounty, the key to opening the Great Temple is being offered… The one offering the bounty is Fang Changsheng.
Anyone capable of capturing Fang Changsheng alive would undoubtedly possess immense power.
“They just want to deliver this key to a powerful cultivator.”
Fang Yu’s eyes lit up, drawing that conclusion.
