Chapter 925: Chapter 923: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes Chapter 925: Chapter 923: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes “Herbert? The First Blood Race?”
Chief Yuan was clearly activating his memory energetically, and eventually, his eyes lit up with understanding.
“No wonder you are the Chief of the Night Watchman, even remembering such ancient matters.”
Fu Qian sighed, his One-Eyed gaze lifting to the ceiling, a deeply reminiscent expression on his face.
Before he even finished, before Yuan Shan could speak, he touched his eye socket and slowly stretched it open with two fingers.
“Ancient Reminiscence,” no longer restrained, rolled onto the table.
“During this time, thank you, Chief Yuan, for your care… and cooperation.”
After performing this horrifying act, Fu Qian raised his head, his dark red eye sockets facing Yuan Shan, and sincerely expressed his thanks.
Yuan Shan’s face had completely cooled, chilling her furiously spinning thoughts.
“You have always been behind, guiding the matters concerning the Gulad Family…”
Quickly, she came to a chilling conclusion and gritted her teeth as she spoke.
“I have a significant relationship with the Red Moon.”
Fu Qian, very honestly, did not directly respond.
“So Ember was led astray by strange guidance… and you once proposed to nip the problem in the bud, to kill Ember directly…”
And as expected, Chief Yuan, with her rich imagination, quickly connected the dots.
“Even before Ember’s death, that miraculous blessing disappeared for reasons we couldn’t understand.”
Suddenly, all sorts of doubts seemed to have found their answers.
“At that time, I had a brief chat with the Red Moon.”
Fu Qian just nodded in agreement.
“But you seem also not inclined to completely eradicate them, like Tyler and Selana.”
Chief Yuan, however, wasn’t so easily deceived, quickly pinpointing the inconsistencies.
“Don’t think of me as so brutal. My return requires a bit of Ancestor Believer’s blood and another thing that cannot be obtained through violence, but rather needs some guidance.”
Fu Qian spoke calmly, glancing at his severed arm.
“That thing, I need Selana’s help…”
Yuan Shan thought of something, and anger was already in her voice.
“Under your coercion, she agreed to your request and helped you complete the final step?”
“How can you call it coercion? No one can coerce a true member of the Bloodline Clan.”
Fu Qian flicked the “Ancient Reminiscence” with his finger, causing it to spin erratically.
“Fortunately, we had spent some time alone, which allowed me to understand her better. I simply presented some things before her eyes.”
“This is not the Ancient Reminiscence.”
Yuan Shan was looking at the table, her voice cold.
“There is no longer any transcendent aura on it.”
“Let’s be precise with our words, it is no longer the Ancient Reminiscence.”
“It has already completed its mission.”
Holding the sphere in his palm, Fu Qian sighed a sigh as ancient as the ages.
In fact, Yuan Shan was right; this certainly wasn’t the Ancient Reminiscence.
That thing was still on the table in the warehouse.
What he held in his hand was originally transformed from his own eyeball.
It was just a convenient ritual; he never thought about making a special trip back.
“You, as Herbert’s will, still existed in the Ancient Reminiscence, always seeking a chance to return…”
At that moment, Yuan Shan also realized something profoundly.
“And you orchestrated a play, involving the entire Gulad Family. After the Ember incident, you chose to leave immediately, because some things are not suitable to be done in Shangjing…”
The Chief of the Night Watchman was already grinding his teeth as he spoke.
“But I don’t understand, what’s the point of all this? You were already an astonishing Demigod, is the so-called Bloodline form that important?”
“I’ve always been a very easy-going person, how could I be so obsessed?”
Fu Qian revealed a smile so irritating it was practically begging to be punched.
“Now, I have indeed reached a further path, and as for my departure earlier, I indeed went to Ye Island… where I talked with the Red Moon.”
“Very well… I understand everything now, so what is your purpose now? You couldn’t have thought that I wouldn’t come,” she said.
“That’s for sure, I specifically reminded Wen Li about it.”
Fu Qian naturally pointed to the host of the evening.
“Tonight’s hospitality and sincerity are for a simple reason, hoping to gain Chief Yuan’s approval.”
“Recently, the Bloodline Clan in Shangjing has been causing some disturbances, but fortunately, it has not escalated, and the main culprit has been punished. Gulad has also paid a heavy price.”
“And by serendipity, a lucky one saw the opportunity to ascend to Divine Envoy.”
“It just shows that life is unpredictable!”
Fu Qian sighed deeply, his face serious as he looked at Yuan Shan.
“Good and evil will both be repaid. This matter is resolved now. What do you think, Chief Yuan?”
“All matters have been reasonably explained, even the lucky one actively approached the Night Watchman to report, with a sincere attitude…”
Before Fu Qian could finish, Yuan Shan was already scoffing repeatedly, now with an even more unpleasant tone.
“I can assure you that everything I’ve said is true.”
Fu Qian squinted his eyes slightly, sensing Chief Yuan’s displeasure but still earnestly promised.
“It’s truly an exquisite plan, covering all bases and even accounting for the greater good. It seems like agreeing with you would be a better choice…”
Across from him, Yuan Shan clapped her hands mockingly.
“I believe the Gulad Family has already been subdued by you, without any doubts…”
“I guess you’re about to say ‘however’…”
Chief Yuan’s posture was clearly hostile, Fu Qian’s grip on his wine glass tightened, and he was no longer in the mood to bring it to his lips.
“Yes, unfortunately, I’ve never been that responsible. I often act on a whim, so you must die… because I’m really upset!”
As she spoke, Yuan Shan had already stood up, dozens of black ribbons extending behind her like a halo, perfectly embodying the killing intent.
He casually threw his wine glass to the ground, and Fu Qian’s face lost all traces of a smile.
“Chief Yuan, aren’t you being too selfish? To fulfill your personal enlightenment, you’re willing to put everyone at risk? Or do you think I’m not in my best form and you’re overly confident?”
Yuan Shan admitted it straightforwardly.
“I’ve calculated that killing you now poses the least risk to the whole world.”
Even though she tried to keep her voice calm, considering the other’s actions, Yuan Shan still felt her anger rising uncontrollably.
“Hmph, can’t you understand human language? To think the Night Watchman has such a foolish Chief!”
Unexpectedly, the other party seemed even angrier than her, his face full of indignation.
“Human language is the language of humans.”
Without dwelling on that hint of doubt, Yuan Shan’s intent to kill was clear.
“Stop, don’t fight anymore.”
Just as tensions reached a tipping point, someone finally cried out from the side.
