Chapter 1459: Return to Huaibei

e second layer of the Kunlun Tower for too long, completely unaware of how much time had passed outside."About...six days." Mo Qinghan replied."Six days…" Fang Yu's eyes flickered, then he asked, "Whe...Ye Shengxue, hearing Ji Ruimei's words, felt completely at ease and said, "Miss Ji, there's still an hour left. In an hour, you'll be able to get up."

"Hmm." Ji Rumei softly responded, continuing to soak in the medicine bath.

An hour passed quickly.

It's quite strange, in the hour before the medicated bath, Ji Ru Mei was subjected to agonizing pain, but in the following hour... she not only felt no pain, her body's vitality rapidly recovered instead.

Once the two-hour mark arrived, Ji Ruomei could even proactively get up and easily leave the medicine vat, standing before Ye Shengxue.

"Miss Ji... Your complexion looks very good." Ye Shengxue looked at Ji Ru Mei in surprise and said.

Now Ji Rumei even has a rosy complexion, showing no signs of abnormality.

"I feel…" Ji Rumei glanced down at her body, now stained a jet black by the medicinal liquid, and suddenly found herself speechless.

"Miss Ji, would you like me to help you wash your body" Ye Shengxue asked softly.

"No, it's okay, I can do it myself..." Ji Ruomei quickly waved her hand and said.

"Alright then... I'll go out first. I'll bring you your clothes when you're done washing." Ye Shengxue said.

"Thank you for your trouble..." Ji Rumei said.

……

Ji Ru Mei spent nearly an hour in the bathroom before changing into a clean set of clothes and going downstairs to the main hall.

By this time, Fang Yu was already sitting on the sofa in the hall waiting for her.

"Mr. Fang…" Ji Rumei walked to Fang Yu's front, slightly lowering her head.

"How are you feeling" Fang Yu looked at Ji Rumei and asked.

"It feels good... but I can't exactly say which aspect." Ji Rumei replied softly.

"After the marrow washing and cutting through, you have gone through a tempering. Now begin practicing the Profound Heart Method, twice the result with half the effort." Fang Yu said.

Saying that, Fang Yu stood up again and looked at Ye Shengxue beside him, saying, "Because I have other things to do, the task of explaining the Tongxuan Heart Method is left to Shengxue."

In the past hour, Fang Yu had let Ye Shengxue go over the Tong Xuan Heart Method once.

After that, he answered a few simple questions.

The Tongxuan Heart Method is the foundation for cultivation, and coupled with Ye Shengxue's quick wit, she quickly mastered the essentials.

Therefore, having Ye Shengxue guide Ji Rumeng in practicing the Tongxuan Heart Method is completely fine.

"Miss Ji, although my cultivation is insignificant compared to Mr. Fang's, in terms of mental techniques... please believe me." Ye Shengxue bowed slightly to Ji Ruomei and said.

"Of course I believe you!" Ji Rumei replied hurriedly, then looked at Fang Yu and said, "Mr. Fang, I will definitely work hard to cultivate!"

"Alright, I'll take a look at your cultivation progress once I finish what I'm doing." Fang Yu smiled faintly.

……

After leaving Ji Ruomei's house, Fang Yu went to Zhao Zinan's house.

Now, the alien creatures that occupied Dongdu and Huaibei regions have all retreated back into the sea.

In this way, Fang Yu also skipped the step of first eradicating the alien creatures in the two major regions.

Therefore, Fang Yu could finally free up his hands and focus on investigating the disappearance of the Zhao family.

But to get to the bottom of this, we'd have to start with Zhao Zinan.

The Zhao family was not killed directly, but instead left their residential villa area in an extremely strange manner, and have been unheard from ever since.

Now, first of all, we need to figure out...whether the Zhao family has offended any forces in Huaibei.

When Fang Yu arrived at Zhao Zinan's house, Zhao Zinan was just taking the Void Devourer out.

"Fang Yu gege…" Zhao Zi Nan saw Fang Yu and immediately walked forward.

Recently, Zhao Zi'nan has been feeling downcast and unwell because of worries about her family. Her complexion is pale and she seems listless.

"I have some important questions about your Zhao family," Fang Yu said, looking at Zhao Zinan.

Hearing the words "Zhao family," Zhao Zinan's body trembled slightly, and she immediately replied, "Brother Fang Yu, what do you want to know"

"Have any powerful forces crossed paths with your Zhao family in the past few years" Fang Yu asked.

Zhao Zi Nan's face changed slightly, recalling.

A moment later, she raised her head and said with a pale face: "Brother Fang Yu, I feel like our Zhao family hasn't provoked anyone... Because my grandfather is the president of the Martial Arts Association, most people treat him very well... But maybe, there are enemies I don't know about..."

Fang Yu's brow furrowed.

Even if the Zhao family had enemies, why would they use such methods to take the Zhao family members away

If you have a grudge, wouldn't it be better to just kill them all Why go through the trouble of letting them leave the villa district

Thinking about this, Fang Yu's gaze fell once again on Zhao Zinan.

As for the strange happenings in Zhao's family, he immediately suspected Zhao Zinan was involved.

Up to now... still the same.

The source is Zhao Zinan's peculiar physique.

At the beginning, the Heavenly Demon of the Demon Clan had told Fang Yu that Zhao Zinan was a so-called 'container'.

The Heavenly Demon also said that there would be an endless stream of beings like itself, trying every which way to take Zhao Zinan away...

However, after the celestial demon's attack... Zhao Zinan was taken to Beidu Mansion by Fang Yu.

During the time spent in the mansion, there were no unusual occurrences.

However, the mysterious disappearance of the Zhao family members... is hard to connect with Zhao Zinan's peculiar physique.

“The devils that Heaven Demon spoke of... have finally made a move” Fang Yu’s eyes flickered, he thought to himself.

However, even knowing the other party's purpose, there were still no clues about the next step.

After the Zhao family went missing, they did not contact Zhao Zinan.

No matter what the other party wants to do, they have to contact Zhao Zinan first, right

But... there was no response.

What's going on again

Zhao Zi Nan stood before him, nervous to the point her hands were twisting together, yet she dared not interrupt Fang Yu's thoughts.

"I still need to go to Zhao's house again and see if there are any clues." Fang Yu thought for a moment, then made a decision.

After drifting off in thought, he saw Zhao Zi Nan's pale face before him and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Zinan, come back with me to your Zhao family" Fang Yu asked.

Zhao Zijun's eyes shone brightly. She had long wanted to go back to the Zhao family and check the situation herself!

So, she hastily nodded and replied, "Okay!"

"There might be dangers, and I'll protect you, but you still need to be mentally prepared." Fang Yu reminded.

He knew very well that Zhao Zinan was naturally timid.

"Me, I'm not afraid..." Zhao Zijun took a deep breath and replied with unwavering eyes.

"Woof!"

At this moment, the usually lazy Void Devourer suddenly jumped onto Zhao Zinan's head and barked.

"You can come with me if you want. It's best to stay by her side and help protect her, too," Fang Yu transmitted to the Void Devourer with his divine sense.

"Woof!" The Shekong Beast immediately wagged its tail and lay down on Zhao Zinan's head.

"Well, if there are no other questions... then we'll head to the Zhao family in Huaibei now." Fang Yu said, silently operating the teleportation technique."But you've already said it..." Lu Chen mumbled."The Holy See has kept this from us for a long time. It wasn't until I repeatedly questioned him that he told us. This shows... the Holy See has always...
