And her reputation may not be as pristine as rumored.
Her private conduct was indeed criticized.
"Haitang, since Six Doors wants our assistance with the investigation, you should go."
"But remember to act according to the situation."
"If there's any room for maneuver, you must protect Fahai and absolutely not let him fall into the hands of Six Doors."
Haitang was slightly startled and couldn't help but ask, "Why does Adoptive Father value Fahai so much?"
Zhu Wushi's tone was calm: "The Yellow-rank secret agent position has been vacant for twenty years."
"Looking across the Jianghu, only Fahai is most suitable for this position."
Haitang's heart trembled.
When she tried to win over Fahai, promising him the Yellow-rank position was merely a temporary measure.
She never expected that her Adoptive Father actually intended to do so!
Thinking about it carefully, a fifteen-year-old Grandmaster, a Prodigy on the heavenly pride ranking, a genius destined to walk the path of a Heavenly God!
Who else could be more worthy of the identity of a Yellow-rank secret agent than him?
Haitang bowed her head and replied, "Yes!"
She had already decided in her heart that she must bring Fahai back to Dragon Guard Villa... Yin Kui Sect.
Wanwan, who was under house arrest, also heard about Fahai.
Her heart was filled with anger, hard to quell.
"It must be them slandering Little Master!"
"With Little Master's character, how could he like that kind of woman!"
"Someone must be plotting behind the scenes!"
The more she thought, the more worried she became.
She worried that Fahai might suffer misfortune after offending Six Doors.
Though extremely anxious, she was confined to her residence and couldn't go out, so she could only worry silently.
Her delicate face was filled with sorrow, and she couldn't even find interest in practicing her Mind-Cultivation Technique, so she clasped her hands together and prayed softly.
"All Heavenly Gods and Buddhas, please protect Little Master and keep him safe."
The Hua family in Jiangnan.
In a lakeside pavilion.
Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng sat opposite each other and also learned of the matter.
Lu Xiaofeng had read the secret report brought by the carrier pigeon, and his expression was solemn.
"Brother Lu, what's the situation?"
Hua Manlou asked with concern.
Lu Xiaofeng sighed softly: "The current situation is extremely unfavorable for Fahai."
"Brother Hua, you and I had an acquaintance with Fahai in Wuliang Mountain, do you think he would be that kind of person?"
Hua Manlou's tone was firm: "Absolutely not."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled: "Just as I thought."
"It seems there's another hidden story behind this."
"The possibility of Lin Xian'er being the Plum Blossom Bandit is not small."
Hua Manlou said: "Little Master Fahai once said that Li Xunhuan knows the truth. Let's go find him, and everything will become clear."
Lu Xiaofeng nodded: "Indeed, only by finding Li Xunhuan can we clear Master Fahai's name."
The two then left the Hua family and went to search for Li Xunhuan.
The entire Jianghu was stirred by the matter of Fahai!
Yet Fahai himself, having nothing to do, strolled leisurely through the streets.
Xu Fengnian and Old Huang followed closely behind, almost running their legs off to keep up with him.
"Damn it, Little Master, your speed is a bit too fast, you almost left me and Old Huang behind."
Fahai then realized that he had been so focused on putting on a show that he had overlooked these two important figures.
These two could not have any mishaps.
If something happened to them, Nangong Pu She would not be able to step into Tingchao Pavilion.
"You're still reliable, Little Master Fahai, you truly are!"
Xu Fengnian gave a thumbs-up, genuinely impressed.
What was Six Doors? Not even as good as a bird.
This was true domineering aura!
This was the true demeanor of a Prodigy!
Besides the two, another person had quietly followed, surprising Fahai quite a bit.
That person was Shi Feixuan.
"Shi Feixuan?"
"Why did you come too?"
Shi Feixuan gazed at him, her expression solemn: "Do you know that from now on, you might find it difficult to move an inch in the Jianghu."
"Worried about me?"
Fahai raised an eyebrow, looking at her with a hint of playfulness.
Shi Feixuan was silent for a long time, then slowly said: "I am for fairness."
Well, if that's the case, then for fairness it is.
Fahai said no more.
After a long journey, the group was already hungry.
They found a restaurant to rest, ordered some delicious dishes and fine wine, and just as the food was about to be served, they overheard the conversation at the next table, which was about the rumors concerning Fahai.
"I heard that Six Doors' Four Great Arresters have all been dispatched, collaborating with Dragon Guard Villa, to capture Fahai!"
"Haha! Good! This time it's definitely a net from which Fahai can't escape, even with wings!"
The Four Great Arresters, each a Grandmaster expert, furthermore with the assistance of Dragon Guard Villa, an intelligence organization second only to Six Doors.
How could Fahai escape?
Everyone in the restaurant was excited, discussing animatedly.
"Fahai is doomed this time!"
"He deserves it too, daring to harm Miss Lin Xian'er, and even daring to offend Six Doors. Such a Demon Monk, the more tragic his death, the better!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Feixuan looked at Fahai, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.
"What do you plan to do?"
Four Grandmaster powerhouses, plus the elites of Dragon Guard Villa and Six Doors, even the Saintess of Cihang Jingzhai would find it difficult to handle.
Fahai had no School or sect, all alone, how should he face this?
However, Fahai shook his head with a calm expression.
"Those four Arresters don't have that ability."
The people over there stopped talking about Fahai and instead began discussing another major event, about the rumors concerning Nangong Pu She.
"Did you know?"
"Nangong Pu She broke into Wudang Mountain, caused a big ruckus, and defeated all of Wudang's experts!"
"Finally, Zhang Sanfeng was forced to come out of seclusion and fight her, and Nangong was seriously injured and retreated."
"What? Such a thing actually happened?"
Everyone was shocked and eagerly asked for details.
"Why did this happen?"
"How did Nangong come into conflict with Wudang?"
Wudang is a top-tier School in the Jianghu, and Nangong is at the head of the Prodigies.
Both sides are crucial existences.
Once they clashed, it naturally drew everyone's attention!
The speaker smiled bitterly, "No one knows the details."
"I only heard that before she set foot on Wudang, she first went to the Five Mountains Sword Sect, defeating all their Sect Leaders in succession."
"Now that she has been severely wounded by Zhang Sanfeng, the Five Mountains Sword Sect, hearing the news, has come out in full force to encircle and annihilate her at Daming Lake!"
"I'm afraid she won't be able to escape this misfortune."
As soon as the words fell!
With a loud bang!
Fahai, who had been calm, suddenly stood up and slammed his palm on the table!
Everyone was startled.
Xu Fengnian still had chopsticks in his mouth, looking bewildered: "What happened?"
Shi Feixuan also showed a puzzled expression, looking at her usually carefree and uninhibited companion.
They had known each other for a long time, and Fahai had always been unrestrained, indifferent to everything.
His anger today was truly rare.
Xu Fengnian frowned and pressed: "What's wrong?"
Fahai said nothing, his face already as cold as frost.
Five Mountains Sword Sect, Wudang Sect...
He didn't need to think much to know that everything Nangong did was for him.
These Schools had jointly issued a Demon Slaying Order, vowing to have the entire world attack him.
Nangong, to protect him, single-handedly broke into the Five Mountains Sword Sect and Wudang Mountain.
No wonder after Wudang issued its decree, there was no further news.
The Five Mountains Sword Sect also delayed sending people.
It turned out that she alone had blocked all the storms.
Though she was the top Prodigy, she was ultimately just a lone woman.
The Five Mountains Sword Sect had experts like clouds, and Wudang was renowned throughout the four seas.
Whether Shaolin or Wudang, both were famous Holy Lands in the Martial Forest.
There were many strong individuals in their Schools; the Seven Heroes and Daoist Chongxu were not ordinary people, and there was also an extraordinary master like Zhang Sanfeng presiding over them.
That was a true Dragon's Den.
Yet she dared to go alone and challenge Zhang Sanfeng, ultimately suffering severe injuries.
Now she was being relentlessly pursued by the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
Wudang, Five Mountains Sword Sect...
Fahai's eyes were cold, and killing intent surged in his heart.
