Chapter 230 Seeking Help

"Who am I? Haha, you don't need to know."

Lin Wan'er sneered, her voice becoming sharp and harsh, "You just need to know that you are going to die soon!"

As she spoke, her figure swayed, and a black shadow rushed out from her body, and immediately rushed towards Fang Yue.

It was actually the shadow monster that he had defeated in that village before.

Unexpectedly, this demon possessed Lin Wan'er at some point.

No wonder Lin Wan'er is so different before and after!

The black shadow is coming, but Fang Yue is prepared earlier.

He dodged and avoided the black shadow's attack. At the same time, he swatted a palm and the blazing vitality immediately hit the black shadow.

"Bang!"

The black shadow was hit by Fang Yue's palm, flew backwards, and hit the wall heavily.

Fang Yue did not stop, he took advantage of the situation to pursue, and struck out with several palms, forcing the black shadow to retreat steadily.

However, the strength of the black shadow is not weak. While resisting Fang Yue's attack, he let out a weird laugh: "Jie Jie Jie, Fang Yue is really capable. But do you think you can defeat me like this?" So naive!”

As he said that, the black shadows suddenly dispersed and disappeared into the wall just like they did in the cave.

Fang Yue stood outside the window, frowning.

He knew that this black shadow was definitely not simple, and was probably related to the previous strange events.

He turned back to the room and looked at Lin Wan'er lying unconscious on the bed, doubts rising in his heart.

What is this black shadow?

Why does it possess Lin Wan'er?

What is its purpose?

Fang Yue stood by the bed and took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner doubts and uneasiness.

He knew that he had to calm down now to find a solution to the problem.

He carefully observed Lin Wan'er's condition and found that although her breath was weak, it was still stable and her life should not be in danger for the time being.

This reassured him a little.

However, he also knew that the black shadow might appear again at any time, and the next time it appeared, it might be more ferocious and cunning.

He must be fully prepared to face the next challenge.

After a while, Lin Wan'er slowly opened her eyes. When she saw Fang Yue sitting by the bed, she suddenly felt relieved.

"What happened to me just now? I don't know why, I couldn't control myself." Lin Wan'er's cheeks were red. She had been sober when she had seduced Fang Yue.

Even now, she didn't realize that she was being controlled just now.

I just feel like I don’t know why she would do that!

Fang Yue looked at Lin Wan'er, feeling hesitant in his heart.

He knew that telling Lin Wan'er the truth might frighten her, but if he didn't tell her, it might lead to more trouble.

In the end, Fang Yue decided to tell Lin Wan'er the truth.

He gently held her hand and said softly: "Wan'er, you were possessed by a black shadow just now. That black shadow is a strange monster that controls your body."

When Lin Wan'er heard the news, she suddenly felt frightened.

Her face turned pale and her body trembled involuntarily.

"How could this happen? How could I be possessed?" she asked in a trembling voice.

"I don't know either."

Fang Yue shook his head, "But I am certain that this black shadow is definitely not simple. It may be related to the previous village."

When Lin Wan'er heard this, she couldn't help feeling palpitated.

She felt scared when she thought that she was possessed by such a weird monster and almost hurt Fang Yue.

"Then...then what should we do now?" She looked at Fang Yue, her eyes full of helplessness and fear.

"Follow me to Yujing City, which is the headquarters of Si Tianjian. There are countless masters and strange people. Someone should be able to solve this problem." Fang Yue said in a deep voice.

He knew that it would be difficult for him to completely eliminate this strange black shadow by himself.

Furthermore, Sombra's purpose and background are unclear, and more information and resources are needed to investigate.

Lin Wan'er felt a little relieved after hearing Fang Yue's suggestion. She knew that Fang Yue was a man of his own opinion and strength, and he would definitely protect herself.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

She nodded and decided to follow Fang Yue's arrangement.

Fang Yue looked at Lin Wan'er, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

He knew that this battle had just begun, but they had already taken the first step.

The next day, at dawn, the three of them left the town and headed east, embarking on a journey to Yujing City.

They traveled all the way under the stars and the moon, day and night, hoping to reach Yujing City as soon as possible and find a solution to the black shadow problem.

However, things didn't go as smoothly as they imagined.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Fang Yue and the others arrived at the edge of Liangzhou Prefecture, from where they reached the boundary of Yujing City.

"Sure enough, I've blocked you here!"

Just as he was about to cross the boundaries of the state capital and enter the boundaries of Yujing City, a man in black robe appeared in front of Fang Yue.

This person is the master of the imperial court who was hunting down the leader of the rebels in Guangfeng Prefecture, King Chang Ping, the master of shape-shifting nicknamed Black Robe!

"Trouble!"

When Fang Yue saw his way blocked by this person, his eyes suddenly shrank slightly.

"Hand over your things and keep your whole body." Hei Pao looked at Fang Yue coldly.

"What?" Fang Yue sneered in his heart. Handing over something would be death, and not handing over something would be death. Who would be so stupid as to hand over something?

This man in black robe is really arrogant and arrogant, can you really defeat him?

The man in black robe sneered: "Stop pretending, it's just the jade token contaminated with luck. That thing is on you, hand it over, and I can consider letting you live."

Luck?

That dragon-shaped jade plaque?

Hearing the words of the man in black robe, Fang Yue's heart moved, and he finally understood the real purpose of the man in black robe to track him.

Sure enough, this person was after the dragon-shaped jade tablet in his hand, which was actually related to luck.

This was also the first time he heard the word luck.

I don't know what the use of this luck is, but Fang Yue remembered a sentence he saw in his previous life, and he turned into a dragon when encountering a storm.

This seems to be about luck.

Luck may seem illusory, but it must be of great use in this world, otherwise these masters would not be so persistent.

"Okay, I'll give you the thing!" Fang Yue took a deep breath, then took out a jade token from his arms, and immediately threw the jade token away with force.

The black robe immediately flew toward the jade token.

However, taking this opportunity, Fang Yue turned around and left.

"Damn it, you dare to play tricks on me, you're looking for death!"

When Hei Pao got the jade token, he saw that it was just an ordinary jade token and immediately realized that he had been fooled.

The man in black robe was furious, his body swayed, turned into a black shadow and chased Fang Yue.

His speed was extremely fast, and he closed the distance with Fang Yue in the blink of an eye.

Fang Yue was prepared earlier. He dodged and hid in a dense forest.

The man in black robe followed closely and also chased into the dense forest.

However, there was silence in the dense forest, and Fang Yue's figure had disappeared.

"Damn it! Why is it missing? Is there something weird about the terrain here that can affect people's spirits?"

The black robe was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He looked around, trying to find traces of Fang Yue, but found that this dense forest seemed to have some special power that restricted people's perception.

The man in black robe was startled, and he realized that this dense forest might be a trap.

However, he was not willing to give up because he knew that Fang Yue had something he was determined to get.

He carefully observed his surroundings, trying to find some clues.

Suddenly, he noticed some faint marks on the ground.

The man in black robe perked up and chased after the footprints.

However, he found no trace of Fang Yue, and instead walked deeper and deeper into the dense forest.

"Huh, you actually escaped. You ran away, but your companions couldn't. Huh, if you want to redeem someone, just take what I want and go to Gengjin City."

The man in black robe searched for a long time, but could not find any trace of Fang Yue, which made him extremely angry.

He knew that he had been tricked by Fang Yue. The other party must have known about the strangeness of this forest for a long time, so he came here.

This time, not only did he fail to recapture the jade token that was stained with luck, but he also allowed the other party to slip away from him.

This made him feel offended, and the black robe was filled with anger.

He immediately turned around and left the woods, returned to the place where he had just met Fang Yue, and directly captured Lin Waner's master and servant, preparing to use these two people to threaten Fang Yue into submission.

"You two, follow me!" The man in black robe said coldly, his voice full of unquestionable majesty.

Originally, with his cultivation level, he would not bother to take action against a weak woman like Lin Wan'er, but now he has no choice but to take action.

However, he still doesn't know Lin Wan'er's true identity.

If he knew that this woman was the one who escaped from the Lin family, he would probably be even more angry.

Lin Wan'er was shocked by the aura of the man in black robe, and for a moment she didn't dare to resist.

They knew that the man in black robe was powerful and they were no match for him. If you resist, you may lose your life.

He took Lin Wan'er, his master and his servant, directly out of the Liangzhou Prefecture and headed towards Gengjin City, one of the four cities in Yujing.

The man in black robe walked quickly and soon arrived at Gengjin City.

He did not enter the city, but came to a remote mountain villa outside the city.

This villa is hidden among the mountains, in a quiet environment and off the beaten path.

The man in black robe took Lin Wan'er and his servant into the villa, and then locked them in a secret room.

"Just stay here and don't think about escaping. Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk!" the man in black robe said coldly.

After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Lin Wan'er, master and servant, looking at each other in silence in the secret room.

Lin Wan'er was terrified. She didn't know why the men in black robes wanted to arrest them, let alone what would happen next.

The master and servant could only hug each other tightly, trying to get some comfort from each other.

~~~~~~~

"This guy is so unreasonable and doesn't have the courage of a master."

Only when the black robe completely left did Fang Yue come out of his hiding place.

He looked in the direction where the man in black robe was leaving, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

He knew that the man in black robe took Lin Wan'er away to threaten him.

However, he was not worried about Lin Waner's safety because he believed that the man in black robe would not harm Lin Waner for the time being.

The target of the man in black robe was the dragon-shaped jade tablet in his hand. As long as he did not hand over the jade tablet, Lin Waner would be safe.

However, this does not mean that Fang Yue can ignore it.

He knew that he had to find a way to rescue Lin Wan'er as soon as possible, otherwise once the black-robed man lost his patience, the consequences would be disastrous.

Fang Yue took a deep breath and then took a firm step towards Yujing City.

The other party was strong, so he had to rely on the power of Si Tianjian to deal with the other party.

Fang Yue knew that time was running out, and he did not stop at all and immediately set off for Yujing City.

He knew that although the black-robed man would not do anything to Lin Wan'er for the time being, it would be extremely disadvantageous to delay.

After rushing all the way, Fang Yue finally arrived outside the gate of Yujing City.

This towering city stood in front of him, giving people a solemn and mysterious feeling.

After entering the city, Fang Yue went directly to Si Tianjian.

Fang Yue came to the gate of Si Tianjian and looked at this magnificent building, and couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.

He knew that the Sitianjian was one of the most mysterious institutions in the Great Xia Dynasty, responsible for monitoring the world and maintaining order, and possessed enormous power and strength.

And this Yujing City, and even the four Sixiang Cities around Yujing City, were built because of the Sitianjian.

As the Supervisor of the Sitianjian, Fang Yue directly entered the Sitianjian and found Kui Hengwu, the head of the Kaogong Pavilion, who had a good relationship with him.

"Haha, Fang Yue, you did a good job this time. I didn't expect that you would make great contributions just after becoming the Supervisor, with a full thousand merits."

Kui Hengwu was very happy to see Fang Yue, the gray-haired head of the Kaogong Pavilion. The younger generation he was optimistic about was indeed good. The news delivered this time directly allowed them to uncover a major conspiracy of the Blood Dragon Platform.

And based on the clues, they directly killed a shapeshifting master of the Blood Dragon Platform.

Fang Yue immediately reacted when he heard this. This was the effect of the letter he had sent through the capital of Liangzhou Prefecture. Sure enough, there was something wrong with those boxes.

"I wonder if those boxes are what Mr. Kui is talking about? Are there really problems?" Fang Yue asked hurriedly.

"Yes, there are indeed problems with those boxes." Kui Hengwu nodded, with a hint of appreciation on his face, "Based on the clues you provided, we conducted a detailed inspection of those boxes and found that there were a large number of contraband and secret letters hidden in them, which were all evidence used by the Blood Dragon Platform to communicate and plan conspiracies."

"You have made an indispensable contribution to the cracking of the Blood Dragon Platform's conspiracy this time. I have reported your contribution to the higher-ups, and I believe that there will be rewards soon."

Fang Yue was delighted when he heard this. He did not expect that he had made a great contribution by accident.

"Thank you, Mr. Kui, for your promotion." Fang Yue hurriedly thanked him.

He knew that his achievements today were inseparable from Kui Hengwu's support and help.

"Haha, you don't have to thank me. I just think highly of your potential, so I will give you some opportunities. As long as you can work hard, your future achievements will definitely be limitless." Kui Hengwu said with a smile.

After a pause, Kui Hengwu asked again: "By the way, do you have something to do when you come to see me this time?"

He knew that Fang Yue would not come to see me for no reason, so he must have something to do this time.

Fang Yue nodded and said: "To be honest with you, Kui, I did come here to ask for an urgent matter."

He then told the story of Lin Wan'er being captured by the black-robed man, and then said: "I want to ask the Imperial Astronomical Bureau to help rescue her."

After listening to Fang Yue's narration, Kui Hengwu frowned slightly and said: "Black robe? Are you talking about the black-robed master of shapeshifting who is worshipped by the court?"

"It should be him." Fang Yue nodded and said. (End of this chapter)
