Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 539 Disappearance (Part 6)

Fang He has passed this test.

He almost fought back, but he managed to restrain himself because he realized that Fang He didn't really intend to kill him.

So close, just a tiny bit more...

He will be exposed.

Han Yi sighed softly, enduring the pain, took out the medicine, and prepared to apply it to his wound.

Jingtian Manor is truly uninhabitable.

Judging from Fang He's actions, he probably won't give up until he finds Fang Shouming.

However, Fang Shouming…

Even if Fang He possessed extraordinary abilities and turned the entire Jingtian Manor and even Huayang City upside down, he still wouldn't be able to find it.

If Fang wants to find him, the only way is to go down below.

But no matter what, this period of time will definitely be quite turbulent.

Before his death, Fang Shouming investigated two things: the murderer who injured Chen Lingmo and Luo Meiwei who lost the ledger.

Both of these matters are related to Han Yi.

The latter, in particular, is concerning. Luo Meiwei, as Han Yi's subordinate, died. This would naturally bring Han Yi into the spotlight.

For now, Han Yi can only try to fade from public view, keep a low profile, and let everything be forgotten over time, thus diminishing its impact.

Just as he was making these plans...

"Your medicine won't work. This wound was caused by my special force, and ordinary medicine is useless."

Suddenly, Fang He's voice rang out from behind him again. "Sect Master Fang..." Han Yi turned around, his expression surprised.

Fang He has actually come back.

He held a pill in his hand. The pill was dark blue, and its shape had become regular and round, with a faint fragrance wafting from it.

At first glance, it looks like a top-quality medicine.

"Take it. The feeling of being penetrated by a punch is unpleasant. If you don't neutralize the force in time, it will affect your body and could very well impact your future martial arts achievements." His tone was gentle, a stark contrast to his previous skeptical and questioning attitude.

"Thank you, Sect Master," Han Yi quickly said.

Fang He took the pill but didn't leave, seemingly waiting for him to take it.

"Sect Master, I've suddenly had some thoughts about Senior Brother Fang's matter." Han Yi pondered for a moment, his mind racing, and then spoke up.

"Oh?" Fang He raised an eyebrow.

"I know Senior Brother Fang's strength. Among the many disciples in our sect, he is one of the top. Such an expert is not weak no matter where he is. So now that Senior Brother Fang has disappeared, in my opinion, there are two possibilities," Han Yi said confidently.

"Speak!" Fang He immediately became interested. He was currently at a loss for words, like a headless fly.

"First, Senior Brother Fang may be dealing with some secret matter that is inconvenient to reveal, so no one can find him or look for him. That's one reason."

Secondly, it's possible that Senior Brother Fang encountered an extremely powerful expert, and a conflict arose due to a disagreement or other reasons, leading to an unexpected incident. Han Yi analyzed carefully.

“Hmm…” Fang He fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he slowly spoke: "The first possibility you mentioned... is unlikely..."

He and Fang Shouming had a fixed time for communication. Even if there were secret matters, it was impossible for him not to be informed.

In fact, Fang He knew that the fact that Fang Shouming had not been found for so long meant that something unexpected had probably happened.

"Now that you mention it..." Han Yi frowned, "As I said before, Senior Brother Fang's strength is definitely not mediocre. If it really is the second type..."

He changed the subject and asked, "Can the sect leader confirm the location where Senior Brother Fang went missing?"

"It should be in Wanhua Palace City," Fang He said uncertainly.

He wasn't sure either, but someone saw Fang Shouming that same night in Licheng, so it was highly likely that the incident happened in Licheng.

That's why he gathered people to conduct a large-scale search and interrogation of the disciples who were in Licheng that day.

"If that's the case, and it's the second possibility, that Senior Brother Fang, with his high level of strength, encountered an accident without making a sound or showing any signs of resistance, this actually indicates a few things."

Han Yi paused for a moment: "Either Senior Brother Fang was ambushed by someone he knew, or he was completely outmatched and had no chance to fight back. More likely, it's a combination of both, which is why Senior Brother Fang disappeared without warning."

Therefore, Sect Leader Fang could start from this angle: Does Senior Brother Fang have any acquaintances in Licheng, especially those with extremely high strength and somewhat unclear backgrounds?

“This kind of person…” Fang He pondered.

Sure enough, after Han Yi's reminder, he immediately thought of a few suspicious people.

Those few demonic martial artists around Fang Shouming usually do all sorts of corrupt and ruthless things. They are vicious and leave no room for compromise in their actions.

If those demonic martial artists were to unite and clash with Fang Shouming, it wouldn't be impossible for it to escalate into a major disaster.

The question now is, those demonic martial artists were specially hired and paid a lot of money, so why would they turn against each other?

This is a point of contention.

"It's very simple. Sect Master, why don't you tell us what Senior Brother Fang's purpose was in being with those demonic martial artists? Once you understand the ins and outs of the matter, you can easily deduce the truth," Han Yi said with a smile.

"this…..."

Fang He was speechless. He couldn't very well say that Fang Shouming had led those demonic martial artists to secretly gather evidence in order to bewitch the disciples.

Attacking one's fellow disciples is a grave taboo, no matter where one is.

He couldn't bring himself to say it if the purpose was impure or the motive was malicious. "Alright, actually, no matter what Senior Brother Fang's purpose is, there's another way to break through," Han Yi said understandingly, seeing Fang He's predicament.

“Another breakthrough… Brother Han, please speak!” Fang He’s attitude also changed drastically, and he listened attentively.

"According to Senior Sister Dong, her younger brother also seems to have had an accident in Licheng. If Senior Brother Fang and her brother had an accident at the same time, then finding commonalities and then looking for forces capable of taking action against both of them simultaneously would greatly reduce the scope of the investigation," Han Yi analyzed.

“Dong Qi… Dong Feng…” Fang He nodded slightly.

Thinking along the lines of Han Yi's words, using the process of elimination to search for possibilities is also a good approach.

Although he suspected that Zhao Ziyang's side might be behind it, without evidence, it would be slander and a waste of time.

Now, all we need to do is eliminate possibilities based on Han Yi's analysis, first defining the scope, and then gradually finding suspicious targets. Only if, in the end, we still find nothing, can we then pinpoint Zhao Ziyang as the suspect.

Having sorted out his emotions, Fang He had a goal in mind and cheered himself up again.

He looked at Han Yi again, but this time his gaze was not filled with murderous intent, but with a different kind of strange look.

"Han Yi, do you blame me for injuring you just now?"
