Fang Xin didn't know why Fang Qingdi reacted so strongly.
He repeated what Bai Mao Zai had said earlier, "He said 'Palace Jade Liquid Wine.'"
Fang Qingdi's gaze was fixed on the air, his eyes flickering, "How does he know this secret code?!"
Seeing Fang Qingdi in this state, Fang Xin asked in confusion, "Grandpa, what's wrong with this secret code?"
Fang Qingdi snapped back to reality, "Did he say anything else?"
"He just said he wanted to meet you. If you said 'let's discuss it later,' he told me to say 'Palace Jade Liquid Wine.'"
After a moment of thought, Fang Qingdi said, "Send him a message. After your aunt's funeral tomorrow, tell him to come to Lan City to see me! I'll only wait for him for half an hour!"
"Grandpa, what was wrong with that secret code?" Fang Xin asked again.
Fang Qingdi then explained, "In the early days when talents first Awakened, there was an organization that recruited many of the first Awakened. Later, when Awakened exploded, that organization began to only recruit those with high talent levels. But that organization later mysteriously disappeared. Even during The Chaos of the Gods, they didn't show their faces. A long time ago, their leader also sought me out, wanting me to join this organization. But their condition was that I couldn't participate in the war at that time. I refused. That leader told me then that if I still wanted to join that organization, I would have to use a secret code before joining. That's the code!"
After hearing Fang Qingdi's explanation, Fang Xin was stunned, "So, you mean Zhuge is part of that organization?"
After a moment of thought, Fang Qingdi said, "Based on this situation, it seems so."
Upon hearing this, Fang Xin's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch. It seemed Bai Mao Zai had other secrets.
"So, he had me bring you this message, meaning he still wants you to join this organization?"
"Perhaps!"
Fang Xin still wanted to ask something, but Fang Qingdi's face suddenly turned incredibly pale, his forehead covered in sweat. Fang Qingdi bent over, his eyes bloodshot, his old body trembling uncontrollably.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?"
Fang Qingdi waved his hand, "My main body suffered some damage, and the damage was transferred to this clone. It's nothing, I'll be able to get through it after a short rest."
As he spoke, Fang Qingdi reached out, asking Fang Xin to help him up, and went to the bedroom to rest.
Updates are not easy, remember to share 101kanshu.com.
Fang Qingdi lay on the bed, his entire body enveloped in a layer of bloody light, "Xiao Xin, don't let anyone disturb me until I come out!"
"Okay!"
Fang Xin looked at the suffering Fang Qingdi, then quietly closed the door.
At this moment, Fang Xin was puzzled. Where exactly was Fang Qingdi's main body? Fang Qingdi, who Bai Mao Zai admired as an idol, undoubtedly possessed immense strength. So, the question was, where was Fang Qingdi's main body, and what kind of existence could injure him?
Fang Qingdi's clone's combat power, Fang Xin, with his current 'rookie' combat power, couldn't discern, but it was at least level ten or above. He would ask Fang Qingdi for the exact number after he woke up.
Half an hour later, the people from the funeral home called to say they had arrived. To avoid disturbing Fang Qingdi, Fang Xin went downstairs to meet with the funeral home staff. Fang Xin had already purchased the grave and other necessities. As for the funeral arrangements, Fang Xin still needed to discuss them with Jiang Xiaocha.
Returning to the room, Fang Qingdi's painful sounds could still occasionally be heard from inside.
Fang Xin sat in the living room, quietly waiting for Fang Qingdi to wake up.
After a full hour passed.
Fang Qingdi finally emerged from the room, his face still a bit pale. Fang Xin quickly got up and poured Fang Qingdi a glass of water.
After taking a sip of water, Fang Qingdi said, "Are the funeral arrangements all taken care of?"
"Yes!"
Fang Qingdi nodded, slowly sat down, and looked at Fang Xin with affection, "Xiao Xin, your parents are gone, and Grandpa can't be by your side for a long time. You're an adult now, and you should take responsibility for things yourself. Xiao Cha must be very sad right now. You're her older brother, and Xiao Cha is a pure-hearted child, without any ill intentions, and she's kind. Take care of her in everything."
"I know that!"
At this point, Fang Xin asked the question that had been on his mind, "Grandpa, what's the strength of this clone of yours?"
"This clone? This clone only has twelve levels of combat power."
Fang Xin's eyes instantly widened, thinking he had misheard.
Twelve levels?
A clone with twelve levels of combat power?
Is there still justice? Is there still law?
Many sect leaders don't even have twelve levels of combat power.
Fang Qingdi's face had eased up a lot by now, and he chatted casually with Fang Xin, "Xiao Xin, do you have any plans for these days off?"
"After my aunt's burial, a classmate of mine, whom I saved before, her father wants to invite me to dinner to express his gratitude."
"Oh? A girl, right?"
"Yes!"
Fang Qingdi thought for a moment, "Let me guess, is it that girl named Chu Xinyao?"
"It is!"
Fang Qingdi smiled, picked up his water glass, and took a sip, "Is her father from the Church?"
"Yes!" Fang Xin also nodded without hiding anything.
Fang Qingdi held his water glass, "People from the Church are always arrogant. Even if you saved his daughter, inviting you, a member of the Ninth Division, to dinner is rarer than snow in June. When is the dinner?"
"The day after tomorrow."
Fang Qingdi thought for a moment, "Then I'll wait until after your dinner before I leave! I want to see what trick he's playing!"
Hearing Fang Qingdi's words, Fang Xin's eyes instantly lit up. With Fang Qingdi as his backing, plus the spatial orb given by Zhuge Heng that could summon Bai Mao Zai at any time, Fang Xin's confidence grew severalfold.
Although Chu Xinyao and Fang Xin grew up together, who knew what her father was like? Moreover, Fang Xin now had a stereotype of people from the Church.
As they were chatting, the door was pushed open, and Jiang Xiaocha walked in from outside. Her gaze swept over Fang Xin and then landed on Fang Qingdi, and she couldn't help but be stunned.
"Grandpa?"
The relationship between Jiang Xiaocha and Fang Qingdi was clearly not as close as that between Fang Xin and Fang Qingdi. She even seemed a bit constrained when she saw Fang Qingdi.
Fang Qingdi waved his hand, signaling Jiang Xiaocha to come closer and talk.
....
On the wall of the spacious office hung the totem of the Church.
The floor was covered with soft, thick, exquisite carpets.
A middle-aged man stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, exuding an air of superiority, holding a cup of coffee and looking outside.
A knock on the door came.
"Enter!" the man said.
A beautiful blonde woman walked in from outside, holding documents.
"Dean Chu, Fang Xin has returned to Lan City! The person you asked for has also been arranged! The captain of the guard is Zhai Dong, who was recently promoted to an eleven-level combat power half a month ago."
The man looked into the distance, took a sip of coffee, and waited for the secretary's further report.
The secretary continued, "As you instructed, the Church will dispatch a joint mission to tie down Zhuge Heng, who might interfere, during your dinner with Fang Xin the day after tomorrow! To facilitate your actions!"
"Hmm!" A faint sound came from the man's nostrils.
The secretary behind him didn't move, and the man glanced sideways.
"Anything else?"
"Dean Chu, won't Miss be angry if we do this?"
The man's gaze looked into the distance through the window, "We're not killing him, just making him encounter an accident, severely injuring him by the Eternal Night Army people and turning him into an ordinary person. And if you don't say anything, Xinyao won't know, right?"
