Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar-Chapter 1072 - 469: Minor Issue (2)

Fang Yu had just held back a trick, not expecting that as soon as he knocked someone out and dragged them away, Qing Anshun appeared.

With a smile on his face, Fang Yu laughed and said.

"What? Brother Qing, are you here to plead for them?"

Qing Anshun was panting heavily, clearly having rushed over at full speed, barely 'making it'.

"Brother Diao, Brother Diao! You've stirred up big trouble!"

He quickly approached, took the unconscious Hai Qianglong from Fang Yu's hands, hoisted him onto his shoulder, and whispered.

"What I said earlier was not a lie. The Hai Family is the first family in Sunset City, and Young Master Hai is the only son of the Hai Family, extremely loved by the family! You've offended him today, you're already doomed, if you kill him, you're surely dead!"

Saying that, Qing Anshun walked to the stone table, raised his hand, swept all the dishes onto the ground, then placed the plump body of Young Master Hai onto the table, took a Medicine Pill from his waist and fed it to him.

Fang Yu rolled his eyes inwardly, he could clearly see Hai Qianglong's vitality, still very healthy, not needing any medicine for healing at all.

"Follow his lead and chat him up a bit."

Ding Hui's voice echoed in his mind again.

Just worried to death earlier, but this guy seems carefree and heartless.

Fang Yu glanced back at Ding Hui, then said emotionlessly as if he were reading a script.

"That's not good, Brother Qing, what do you think I should do?"

That strange tone made Qing Anshun feel a bit puzzled, but since his back was to Fang Yu, he didn't even glance at Fang Yu's expression, thinking Fang Yu was scared by his words, his voice distorted.

Immediately, Qing Anshun said eagerly.

"Don't panic! Brother Diao, my Qing Family may not be a big family in Sunset City, but we rank quite well. If you're willing to become a Guest Elder of my Qing Family today, the offense against Young Master Hai will be handled by us! We won't let the Hai Family threaten you or your wife in the slightest!"

Goodness, at most I've only attempted, Hai Qianglong is still alive.

Can it be so serious that without Qing Family's protection, I can't overcome this hurdle?

Fang Yu really doubted, if he had stopped a moment later and killed the man directly, would Qing Anshun have dared to come and cover for him?

Only when the person is not dead, if they were, would Qing Family still dare to withstand the Hai Family's pressure and take me in?

"No worries! Young Master Hai's breathing is stable, just fainted. The grudge between you and Young Master Hai, my Qing Family will settle for you. How about it? Brother Diao, have you thought it through?"

Qing Anshun patted his chest, checked and found that Hai Qianglong was okay, feeling much relieved, then turned to Fang Yu with a smile and asked.

Fang Yu was about to respond, when a pair of jade hands wrapped around his arm.

"My husband's intention is to hold the person and let the Hai Family's master personally come to apologize. I'm just not sure if he has that sincerity."

Fang Yu: ???

I haven't said a word!

You're really stirring up trouble professionally!

Qing Anshun was obviously stunned, he had asked Fang Yu if he wanted to join Qing Family, to smooth out this storm. But turning around, Fang Yu wants Hai Family to lose face and come to apologize? What's the meaning?

Is he not afraid of death??

Seeing Fang Yu silent, with his wife taking charge, Qing Anshun's face suddenly became a bit displeased.

"Mrs. Diao, I made myself very clear earlier, the Hai Family, that's..."

Qing Anshun's words weren't finished before being directly interrupted by Ding Hui.

"My husband and I are tired. When the master of Hai Family arrives, let us know. As for these two, kindly ask Young Master Qing to detain them, lock them in the adjacent room to ours. Rest assured, this matter is only between my husband and I and the Hai Family, it will not affect the Qing Family."

After she finished, ignoring Qing Anshun's bewildered stare, as if he doubted his ears, she dragged Fang Yu to head towards their room.

Fang Yu certainly cooperated well, but a heap of questions remained in his heart.

And at that moment, Ding Hui's voice resonated in Fang Yu's mind.

"Qing Family wants to use a favor to buy us. But he forgets, you Diao Deyi are now in-demand, everyone wants a piece."

"It's just a matter of injuring the Hai Family's young master. Compared to the future dominance of Sunset City, it's not significant at all."

"That old Hai Family guy will definitely pay a personal visit. Whether for his son or to get you."

Fang Yu slightly furrowed his brows.

It seems Ding Hui's trip out has gathered quite a bit of information.

At this moment, the two had already returned to the room.

With the door closed, Fang Yu only uttered two words.

"Details."

Ding Hui smiled slightly, released Fang Yu's hand, and put her small hands behind her back, tiptoeing step by step to the bed.

"I've already inquired; Sunset City only has two factions."

"The first faction is called Qingling Taoist Temple."

"The second faction is the forces outside Qingling Taoist Temple."

"I suppose you must have already visited Qingling Taoist Temple, right?"

Ding Hui turned to look at him.

"How did you know?"

Fang Yu was puzzled.

Ding Hui playfully winked.

"I came back earlier than you, and I asked the Qing Family servants."

Fang Yu:...

This guy!

Fang Yu extended two fingers.

"I want to know two things right now. First, how is the information gathering on traffickers going? Second, what do you plan to do with that fat Hai Family guy?"

"I've inquired, and indeed there is this kind of trade movement underground in Sunset City, but the frequency is very low, and it's deeply hidden, making it hard to catch. It requires time to explore."

"As for the Hai Family fat guy, that leads back to the first question. The things we need, maybe that Hai Family member might be willing to provide some convenience." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Ding Hui blinked and then asked, "Did you get anything out of Qingling Taoist Temple? Did that Daoist want to take you in too?"

"Hmm." For himself, Fang Yu had nothing to hide.

"Daoist Qingling is a Believer; he has a disciple who is... like me. Also a Believer. But Daoist Qingling is close to the end, so he doesn't have time to slowly cultivate Lei Qingzi, and plans to take me as his disciple, to let me inherit his legacy, inherit Qingling Taoist Temple, and also inherit the position of Sunset City ruler."

"Wow!" Ding Hui covered her small mouth: "You are going to become the City Lord!"

"Stop being silly, tell me what we should do? The Hai Family also probably thinks this way, but their acquisition is more protective... It's about fearing another monster like Daoist Qingling, so they plan to keep me first, let Daoist Qingling appear or disappear as he may, and then smoothly seize the dominance of Sunset City."

Ding Hui saw Fang Yu's serious demeanor and stopped joking, her brows furrowed slightly. She thought for a moment and then spoke.

"This involves two questions. First, do you want to settle down here? Second, do you still want to track the traffickers' clues?"

"If you're willing to live long in Sunset City, Qingling Taoist Temple is a very good choice. Conversely, the Hai Family is rather a good place to settle. The Hai Family doesn't truly want you, so if we do leave one day, they won't pursue too much."

"Then there's the second question, the traffickers' clues. With my skills, trying to find these local tyrants in Sunset City might require digging into relations and networks for a long time. But if the Hai Family or Qingling Taoist Temple is willing to assist, results should come within ten days. However, the Hai Family isn't really sincere to you, and since you've also offended the Eldest Young Master Hai, joining the Hai Family would mean being trapped, as they won't truly help us investigate things. Joining Qingling Taoist Temple, as you said, with a dying body, should be willing to pay a considerable price, mere investigation of persons is naturally unchallenging."

Fang Yu frowned.

"Is there a third option?"

Ding Hui laughed.

"The Hai Family is the third option, fourth option, fifth option... The Hai Family appears to be an individual entity but actually represents all the families in Sunset City resisting the Qingling Taoist Temple. With a single call, there would be countless families endorsing the Hai Family as the ruler."

"What about the Qing Family?"

"Families outside the Hai Family lack the qualification to compete with Qingling Taoist Temple. Specifically, I'm still investigating, but after Sunset City went through certain events, the Hai Family emerged and accumulated considerable power, having countless ties with other families, far surpassing those lagging families. And once we choose to join any force outside the Hai Family and Qingling Taoist Temple, the resistance we face is far from as simple as it seems on the surface. You understand, don't you?"
