Chapter 706: Chapter 168: Mr. Fang Makes a Move, Turning the Tables! [Ten Thousand Words]_6

The disparity in treatment is really too much, isn’t it?

"Mr. Fang, what’s going on?"

They asked cautiously.

Fang Che burst out angrily, "This Zhu Family, using their wealth, actually looks down upon our Guardian Hall! It’s simply outrageous! All I asked for was their family member list, and they started giving me attitude, utterly spoiled!"

Jing Xiuyun said, "Didn’t they just say that all sorts of accounts have already been prepared?"

"What’s the use of those prepared ones?"

Fang Che said, "The point is to see the ones they haven’t prepared! But as a result, they immediately changed their attitude and even tried bribing me. Am I, Fang Che, the type of person who accepts gifts?"

The two of them remained silent.

In their hearts, they thought just now we distinctly heard you suggesting for that painting... This isn’t accepting a gift, it’s outright demanding a bribe.

"You go back to the hall first."

Fang Che, still fuming, said, "I’ll stroll around here a bit more."

Jing Xiuyun advised, "Mr. Fang, the Zhu Family is quite powerful here locally, be careful, don’t be impulsive."

"No problem!"

Fang Che said indifferently, "I’m not someone who doesn’t know the gravity of a situation."

He then waved his hand repeatedly, "Go on, go on."

Then he turned and walked in another direction.

Jing Xiuyun and the other had no choice but to leave, turning back every few steps, worried.

Mr. Fang soon disappeared into the crowd.

As he walked, he thought; when he entered the Zhu Family, he was observing closely, scrutinizing everything from people to objects, to the layout, courtyard, and buildings...

Everything fell into his view.

Then his mind quickly raced, striving to recall the conversations during the friendly matches with those little girls; looking for clues from the distinctive characteristics of various sects.

The little girls hadn’t considered it then, but Mr. Fang managed to extract quite a bit from them.

From the time he entered, the growth of the roof grass, the gate tower that hadn’t been repaired for many years, and the various carvings and sculptures on the gate tower, were all vividly imprinted in his mind.

But he hadn’t found anything that could be verified until he saw the massive painting in the main hall, which made him feel something was apparent.

Until entering the small hall, Zhu Shaoyun, although he brought out the spiritual tea with great care, drank the tea in a generous and natural manner, without any sign of reluctance, clearly at ease.

Moreover, Fang Che sensed with his divine sense that there was only a half-pack of the tea left.

It indicated that this was the tea normally brewed by the maid; and Zhu Shaoyun was merely putting on an act.

Why pretend? Because he was from the Guardian Hall, so Zhu Shaoyun was trying hard to present himself as an ’ordinary person, a merchant.’

Crafty and thorough in all respects.

Moreover, they prepared what was needed for the investigation.

So Fang Che demanded what they weren’t prepared for: I want the information of all your people outside!

This move was completely unreasonable, but it was brutally executed.

Because according to convention, those people actually were no longer under the jurisdiction of the Baiyun State Guardian Hall, and that was a fact.

But Fang Che wanted to investigate!

And with this investigation, sure enough, they sent out some so-called Grand Dowager.

And in addition to offering gifts and a shy young girl... these were all tactics to avoid handing over that list.

Fang Che understood: if it were truly just a family genealogy, handing it over wouldn’t really matter, but why wouldn’t they?

And those people, though each believed they were well-concealed, with ordinary spiritual power detection, nothing could be discovered.

But utilizing the Infinite Scripture, it could be clearly felt. What did this imply?

Fang Che understood clearly.

No wonder the Zhu Family could exist in Baiyun State for so many years without being discovered; it turned out to be a den of experts.

But then again.

Fang Che was quite clear, these people were definitely not from the Wei Wo Zheng Sect but from the Outer World Mountain Sect.

"There’s no eerie ghost qi on them, they’re not from the Netherworld Palace, nor from the Qingming Palace."

Fang Che pondered: "But they’re definitely a peripheral organization of the Outer World Mountain Sect with immense power, stationed outside to accumulate wealth or transport resources for the Outer World Mountain Sect."

Now I’ve made my move, how will they respond?

So many experts hidden in Baiyun State, yet doing nothing, merely extracting wealth from Baiyun State...

"They certainly won’t hand over the list. Because those people aren’t even on their family records."

"If I’m not wrong, they should rotate periodically, like the Worldwide Escort Agency, and those so-called branches outside... they’re likely other disciples of the sect."

"So they can’t produce the list."

"Since they can’t, but still agreed, it means they’re planning to take action against me."

"As long as I’m dead or disappear, the crisis of their identity being exposed will be over for them."

"I really want to see how you plan to act!" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Fang Che’s eyes shone with a cold glint.

Then he began to consider: "Steward Fang has already lit the fire, but Steward Fang can’t keep burning it. How can I pass it on to the Yemo?"

Fang Che pondered.

Mr. Fang can’t kill their people, because even if they were the ones making the first move, it would still incur hatred towards the Guardian and Protector from the opposition.

This can’t happen.

So... it’s necessary for Yemo to act.

But what reason does Yemo have to intervene?

Fang Che frowned, thinking all the way.

The rest of the afternoon was uneventful.

Mr. Fang went off duty, after which he went to North City again, wandering near the Zhu Family, apparently investigating something.

On one hand, to apply pressure, and on the other, to give them a chance to take action.

Although there was a hint of entrapment in enforcing the law, how else could I enforce the law if you don’t come to kill?

Thus, Fang Che felt his reasoning was rock solid!

All the reasoning was on his side!

Late in the day, Fang Che wandered near the city gate, looked around, and clicked his tongue, this place is perfect for someone to get silenced.
