The comer was none other than Fu Sinin, the assassin who spared her life after Fang Yu slaughtered the four Great Elders of the Lu Family in the battle in the Forbidden City.

But...

I didn't expect her to be here too.

Fu Sinin crouched down, looking towards the ruins, and said:

"I know you're a Cultivator... thank you for letting me go last time."

"Thank for what... You haven't told me yet, why are you here?" Fang Yu asked.

"Ever since the battle in the Forbidden City... I've been secretly keeping an eye on your information and movements... Recently, I've discovered that the remnants of Hongmen have started stirring again in Jiangzhou... So I came to take a look... Unexpectedly, I ran into you here," Fu Sinin said.

"Hongmen remnants?"

Fang Yu looked at Fu Sinin skeptically, "That reason seems a bit far-fetched... Do you like me?"

"Um..." Fu Sinin was startled, her pretty face instantly blushing.

Thank goodness it's night.

It's not too clear to see.

Fu Sinin said, "I really didn't know you would be here... I've been paying attention to your information because you've been too high-profile in Jiangzhou lately!"

"Too high-profile?" Fang Yu scratched his head, "Seems like it's really the case."

Fang Yu's gaze swept over her again and said, "Sigh..."

"Why are you sighing?"

"I just feel, how can there be a man like me in this world... Born to be so outstanding. If I get old one day, wouldn't that be a great loss to this world?"

"..."

"What's wrong? Stomach not feeling well?" Fang Yu frowned slightly.

"No, just feeling a bit nauseous," Fu Sinin said with her hand covering her abdomen.

"Good thing I'm skilled in medical arts... Your problem is mostly due to indigestion, caused by eating something unclean... When you get back tonight, just roll a cup of hot water over your lower abdomen and you'll be fine. If it starts to hurt, you might not be able to sleep," Fang Yu seriously suggested.

"..." Fu Sinin was completely speechless.

Seeing that Fang Yu was about to speak again.

Fu Sinin quickly said, "I remember, Hongmen was eradicated under your leadership... If they've appeared here, there must be a reason. Now both Yanjing and Jiangzhou, on the surface, it's the Ye Family of Yanjing, but in reality, they're both under the control of the Luli Sect and the Xu Family from the Northern Desert. So... I suspect Hongmen is targeting you. The ruins in East District, it must be a trap."

Upon hearing this.

Fang Yu was taken aback and asked, "How do you know so much?"

Fu Sinin was just a Martial Artist.

Logically, it would be very hard to get hold of information about Cultivators.

How would she, a Martial Artist, come to know about it?

Hearing Fang Yu asking this.

Fu Sinin was startled, her face crossing a slightly unnatural expression.

But it was obscured by the night and nothing was clear.

Just as she was about to respond to Fang Yu...

Fang Yu preempted, "Oh... I get it now, you really have fallen for me!"

"..."

Fu Sinin turned her head and huffed, "I can't be bothered with you!"

Fang Yu chuckled and said, "Don't say this is a trap, even if it were a dragon's lair or a tiger's den, I would still break in... Beauty, you like me so much, you wouldn't just watch me go in alone, right?"

"You—"

"I knew you couldn't bear to watch me go to my death alone!" Fang Yu said with a smile.

"Scoundrel!"

Fu Sinin frowned slightly, her eyes rolling around as if very serious, she lowered her voice and said, "Last time you spared me... this time, I'll take it as returning the favor! If you really want to go in, I'll help you."

"This excuse sounds just as forced as before," Fang Yu laughed.

This made Fang Yu suspicious.

His gaze lingered on her for a moment.

From her sudden appearance at the beginning, and her knowledge about Hongmen, Luli Sect and the Xu Family of the Northern Desert, it indicated that she was not acting alone.

So what exactly was she trying to do?

Fang Yu was contemplating this, seeing that she stayed quiet, he made up his mind, wanting to play, then let's play together.

But who knew—

Fu Sinin casually said:

"If you like going to your death alone, then go ahead... Anyway, I still want to live."

With that, Fu Sinin suddenly turned and walked towards the outside.

Fang Yu abruptly pulled Fu Sinin into his arms.

This caused her to exclaim in surprise as Fang Yu drew her into his embrace.

Fang Yu's large hand reached for her waist.

"Don't... I'm alone and helpless; I still need your assistance. You're aware of my strength."

"What, what do you think you're doing?"

"Before we walk into this trap, I wanted to have a tender moment with you," Fang Yu said with narrowed eyes.

"No, don't..."

"Come on, give me a kiss first."

Fang Yu's other hand cradled the back of her head, and he planted a kiss on her lips.

Her lips were fiery red, sweet and tempting.

Fu Sinin had never been touched by another man like this in her life.

This was truly the first encounter of its kind for her, far too abrupt.

Exactly at the moment of their kiss, she suddenly felt…

"You... you..."

Whoosh!

Fu Sinin gathered all her strength and pushed him away.

"Get away from me!"

"You just admitted you liked me... why resist so much!" Fang Yu said.

"Who likes you? Only a ghost would like you... you scoundrel!" Fu Sinin said, her face flushed with anger.

"Alright... it seems I was presumptuous."

Watching Fang Yu turn his back to her.

Anger blazed in Fu Sinin's eyes— what a scoundrel, not only did he kiss her, he dared to touch her inappropriately.

Straightening her clothes over her chest, Fu Sinin suddenly spoke up:

"Hey."

"Hm?"

"Wait for me... I'm not ungrateful. I'll go with you," Fu Sinin said indifferently.

"I knew you still liked me!" Fang Yu chuckled.

The two of them walked towards the ruins.

Halfway there.

Fu Sinin suddenly asked in a low voice, "Why do you insist on going in?"

"No reason... some things just need to be resolved."

"But, aren't you afraid at all of the dangers inside?"

"Danger? To me, they are merely ants... Now these ants are suddenly telling me they want to gnaw at my dam, should I not crush them?" Fang Yu's tone became calm.

Fu Sinin shivered all over.

Fang Yu couldn't help but ask, "Are you scared?"

"No, not scared..."

"We're almost there... no matter what we encounter later, you'd better stay behind me. Although I don't know why you're following me... but for me, having a few more drag-alongs doesn't affect me!"

Hearing this.

Fu Sinin stood frozen once again.

At that moment—

A rustling sound came from ahead.

Many silhouettes appeared not far off.

Following that, the light from flashlights scattered in all directions before gathering and rushing towards Fang Yu's side.

Not only from that direction, but there were also many people emerging from all around!

All holding flashlights.

Clang, clang clang...

They were all holding different things in their hands—

Iron rods.

Long knives.

And... guns.
