Dongfang Yu’s apartment is located in the city center, a bustling hub with a constant stream of cars and pedestrians.
It’s the liveliest part of the city.
He didn’t understand why Dongfang Yu would choose such a noisy place.
Every time he visited, he had to be extremely cautious.
But later, he understood that the greatest secrecy is often hidden in the busiest of places, and that the most dangerous locations can actually be the safest.
Just as his place on East Mountain was actually not safe.
It wasn’t because he seemed to be at peace with the world and unlikely to draw anyone’s attention.
In the apartment, Dongfang Yu had a private passage on his floor.
This apartment, built a few years ago, adopted some foreign elements, presenting a high-end and luxurious exterior.
Most importantly, the top-floor apartment had its own passageway and staircase, separate from the other residents.
When he was selecting a place for Dongfang Yu, he considered several options, but Dongfang Yu settled on this one in the end.
Now he realized there was a reason Dongfang Yu had chosen this place.
The location itself was an innate Eight Trigrams Array.
No wonder Dongfang Yu always told him there was no need to hide his identity, as long as he stepped into the Kanmen.
Nobody would notice his movements.
Indeed, he entered Kanmen’s direction boldly and unobstructed.
Here, Dongfang Yu had also set up some formations.
Dongfang Yu was a rare genius.
Not only was he highly skilled in Spirit Talismans, but he also had a deep understanding of Qimen Dunjia.
It was just a pity that Lin Fanpeng didn’t understand what use these skills could have for him.
If he possessed them, he would have put himself at the pinnacle of the world long ago.
He wouldn’t need to scheme and plot to seize the Gu Family’s wealth.
By then, he believed, the Gu Family would willingly hand over their fortune to him.
And their secrets as well.
Lost in his speculative thoughts, the elder found the elevator had reached the top floor.
He knocked on Dongfang Yu’s door, carrying a briefcase filled with documents.
At that moment, Dongfang Yu stood in front of the balcony, where the scant lighting sculpted his tall figure into a solitary silhouette.
He had an air of poetic solitude.
Lin Fanpeng felt a sudden stir in his chest.
He thought of his granddaughter, Lin Qinghuan.
Sect Leader Dongfang Yu had always been alone; as far as he could remember, there never seemed to be a woman by his side.
He wondered if it was because Dongfang Yu found no interest in earthly women or was concerned about his secrets being exposed.
He was more inclined to believe the latter.
Fearing the exposure of his secrets!
After all, anyone who knew the truth about such an ancient and monstrous existence would feel fear.
Especially in an era that increasingly values science.
Such a person might even be captured for research.
Therefore, Dongfang Yu wouldn’t stay with the girls of this world.
That’s why he had always been single.
But his granddaughter was different.
As a devoted subordinate of the Elder Sect Leader, he knew a thing or two about the Young Sect Master’s secrets.
So there was no worry about the second concern.
Moreover, his granddaughter was beautiful; if she could really marry the Young Sect Master.
It would be a match made in heaven.
As for the future, that was a matter for another time.
For now, his granddaughter was abroad and couldn’t make an appearance yet.
However, he could suggest that the Sect Leader travel abroad in the future.
The world is changing every day, and abroad even more so...
The thoughts of Lin Fangpeng merely lasted a moment.
He approached Dongfang Yu respectfully and handed over the documents he held.
