Chapter 58: Chapter 23 Fang Che: I’m Too Depressed (Revised)

Sun Yuan still felt some suffocation in his heart and huffed, rolling his eyes as he said,

"Once you hold a position within the sect, you will naturally be given a Communication Jade. When the breath of the Five Spirits Gu infiltrates the Communication Jade, you will be able to control the Five Spirits Gu and communicate at any time."

"The communicator’s role varies based on their responsibilities, and the amount of communication also depends on their status."

"In short, from the position you hold, you can contact anyone you need to. Just by willing it and communicating with the Five Spirits Gu, it will naturally find that person for you. Unless that person is dead, the Five Spirits Gu will tell you the communication has failed. Otherwise, no matter if they are at the end of the world, once you send out a message, you can immediately receive a response. The Five Spirits Gu on the other end will notify its master of the incoming message."

Sun Yuan said, "Simply put, this is the function of the Five Spirits Gu. It is also why the Five Spirits Gu is considered extremely dangerous, as most people cannot endure it within their bodies. Therefore, each time disciples are selected, there are many who tragically die because they cannot withstand it."

"So that’s how it is."

"There are also some individuals particularly valued by the high-ranking members who can communicate directly with the Sect Hierarch even from a very low position."

A proud smile spread across Sun Yuan’s face as he said, "Fang Che, the Sect Hierarch thinks highly of you!"

This statement seemed quite profound.

Fang Che’s eyes lit up as he said, "I will definitely complete the task brilliantly and strive to earn the qualification to report to the Sect Hierarch at any time."

"Yes. You must strive for this, and I will also do my best to support you."

Sun Yuan smiled, feeling a bit odd inside. Regarding the fact that ’Five Spirits Gu could kill people,’ Fang Che had shown no reaction.

Could this child be so naive as to not suspect whether his Big Brother Su was harming him?

Fang Che had wanted to react, but he feared interrupting Sun Yuan’s explanation, so he simply held back from saying anything.

After all, Su Yue was dead. Whether to react or not... he was a great brother to me!

I’ll need to use his name in the future.

...

Sun Yuan left.

Fang Che began to investigate the Five Spirits Gu.

So everything was because of this thing?

No wonder!

Fang Che only knew that the Five Spirits Gu ensured loyalty. If one harbored any betrayal, the Five Spirits Gu would immediately backlash and the person would die instantaneously.

It was indeed a very sensitive detector.

Unfortunately, the Five Spirits Gu inside Fang Che did not possess this function. Fang Che harbored betrayal almost daily, and that betrayal was extraordinarily grievous by the standards of the Five Spirits Gu, yet it could not kill him.

Not only that, it had been thoroughly consumed by Fang Che. Moreover, Fang Che exercised it daily until it wished for death.

However, Fang Che had not previously known about the communicative abilities of the Five Spirits Gu.

"It seems this tiny creature has an extraordinary origin; I really don’t know how it was created."

He circulated the Infinite Scripture and slowly entered the mystical gateway.

The Five Spirits Gu feared such spiritual power and immediately curled up.

Fang Che’s mind moved, and he began to send out gentle comforting thoughts, feeding some of the spiritual power from his meridians to it.

The Five Spirits Gu paused and then began to chew voraciously.

Tears welled up!

It had finally eaten.

Since arriving inside this person, it had barely had a full meal, always living in a state of dizzying hunger.

Now, it seemed a conscience had been found.

Thank heavens!

This time, Fang Che fed the Five Spirits Gu its fill.

He felt a wave of joy rising faintly within him.

Clearly, the Five Spirits Gu was quite satisfied.

After comforting it with tender emotions again, the Five Spirits Gu was thrilled, having never received such royal treatment before.

It hurriedly began to reciprocate with equal kindness.

Fang Che was very pleased and continued the interaction.

Ye Meng came in with a cup of tea and, seeing the smile on Fang Che’s face, asked, "Young Master, why are you so happy today?"

Fang Che’s mind shifted instantly.

He immediately sealed the Five Spirits Gu.

Snap.

Sent back to the Cold Palace.

Five Spirits Gu: ...

Fang Che then gestured mysteriously and whispered, "This is a secret, come here and listen."

Ye Meng suppressed the excitement in her heart but made a hesitant expression and said, "Young Master, let me massage your legs."

"Yes."

Fang Che comfortably stretched out his long legs.

Enjoying Ye Meng’s service, he spoke in a very low voice, "This must not be shared."

"Uh-huh."

Ye Meng’s lips curved upward as she heartily agreed, her hands busy massaging and relaxing the muscles.

"In my body, I have a Five Spirits Gu, which is quite the remarkable thing. Once I get promoted within the sect, I can use it to contact others in the sect, send messages, even if the person is at the end of the world, they can receive it instantly. Tell me, isn’t this even more convenient than the mythical instant communication across a thousand miles? Isn’t it divine?"

Fang Che boasted with a smile.

Ye Meng widened her eyes in disbelief and said, "Young Master, don’t deceive me. How could such a tiny bug accomplish such a feat?"

"Tsk, what do you know? Do you know why our sect has thrived for so many years? Heh, even if the enemy’s location is confirmed, by the time you get there, it’s already too late... the person has left. It’s all because of this!"

"Just with a thought, the message is sent out, and with any disturbance, one can flee thousands of miles. Who could possibly catch them?"

Fang Che said proudly, "This will be my life-saving weapon! If anything happens, heh, I’ll receive the message immediately!"

Seeing Ye Meng’s dumbfounded expression with her mouth agape.

This was truly a great secret!

Fang Che then made a disinterested face and waved his hand dismissively, "Talking about this with you wouldn’t make much sense, it’s better to share something fun yet frustrating."

"Interesting but frustrating events?" Ye Meng was even more perplexed. Her mind had not yet recovered from the shock of the previous message, and now there was more?

"Ah, I’ve really gotten myself into trouble this time."

Fang Che sighed, "Just now, my master came over and scolded me, ah... I’m feeling a bit downhearted."

Ye Meng tried to console him, "Master, it’s normal for a master to scold his disciples. There’s no need to feel down about it."

Thinking about immediately spreading the news.

Fang Che sighed, "What do you know? This time it’s different."

Ye Meng’s curiosity was piqued, "How is it different?"

Fang Che made a sorrowful expression, "Killed the wrong person... got into trouble."

"Ah? Killed someone?" Ye Meng made a horrified expression.

Her expression was very realistic.

Fang Che suddenly felt as if two Oscar-winning actors were competing in a scene.

So he became even more involved and said, "Master said... just yesterday, several Sect Leaders were chatting together, and our Sect Leader didn’t dare say a word, he just came back and scolded my master?"

Sect Leader level chat?

Ye Meng’s heart rang a long alarm, and she immediately perked up her ears, making a shocked expression, "Ah?!"

"The Sect Leader of the Heavenly God Sect said it was hard to develop a family, to nurture a seed, but during the new student competition at Baiyun Martial Arts Academy, it was killed by another new student..."

Fang Che sighed deeply, "So you understand, right? The person who died in the major competition was none other than the Ximen Xuri I killed..."

Ye Meng was stunned, "Such a coincidence?"

"Who’s to say it isn’t? Our Sect Leader didn’t dare say anything. He just said ’Accept it and move on,’ then came back and scolded my master to hell... and then my master came over and naturally scolded me to hell."

Fang Che said helplessly.

Ye Meng: "..."

"You’re saying it’s just too unlucky, right? Who knew that guy and his family were from the Heavenly God Sect? I thought I had eliminated the Guardian’s seed, but instead, it turned out to be a big mess, attacking one of our own. Where do you go to reason this out? I feel wrongly accused, no one told me beforehand that Ximen Xuri was one of us!"

Fang Che sighed, helpless and distressed, "Not only that, my identity is top secret and must not be exposed, so in the future, I might even be assassinated by my own people, isn’t that frustrating?"

Ye Meng also pondered and couldn’t help saying, "It is indeed a bit frustrating, but can’t this matter be explained?"

"Explaining would mean exposing my identity, which would be even more dangerous."

Fang Che sighed deeply, his grief profound.

Ye Meng lowered her head, her eyes wandering quickly, somewhat gloating.

Suddenly.

Fang Che burst out angrily, "You’re silent after I told you? You useless thing!"

Ye Meng was startled and was about to look up and speak, but heard Fang Che ask fiercely, "What level is your cultivation now?"

Ye Meng rallied her spirits, "I am already at the Second Grade of Warrior, Master!"

There was a hint of boasting.

"You are so foolish! Only second grade and yet so proud!"

Fang Che pulled out a handful of Elixir Pills and threw them over, "Hurry up and cultivate! If you can’t break through to martial master level within a month, I’ll sell you into a brothel!"

Ye Meng immediately pouted.

This guy really... Is this face a dog’s face, changing so suddenly!

More convenient than a door curtain.

He was just smiling a moment ago, and now...

"Hope you never find a wife!"

Ye Meng cursed venomously.

She sulkily returned to her room, dazed for a while before starting to write a message using a secret technique.

"Today I learned about the secret of the Five Spirits Gu of Wei Wo Zheng Sect and the secret of communication; it turns out... Also, another piece of news, that Ximen family actually..."

...

Fang Che watched Ye Meng leave, and he too breathed a sigh of relief.

These consecutive messages were enough to solidify Ye Meng’s footing and to make the upper ranks of the Guardians realize Ye Meng’s importance to him.

He couldn’t be this straightforward in the future; these few times were already very risky. If someone with insight considered this aspect, they might start suspecting him.

Just speaking this bluntly to her, laying the foundations was all well and good, but other methods would have to be considered in the future.

...

In the early hours of the morning.

Just next door, in disguise, Fan Tiantiao received the message.

"The secret of Wei Wo Zheng Sect is actually like this..."

Fan Tiantiao dared not delay, and immediately sent it out.

This message was extremely important.

The Guardian side only knew about the general function of the Five Spirits Gu and its potential to communicate, but they had no knowledge of the specifics.

It was critical because the Five Spirits Gu was implanted within them, instantly backfiring on any thoughts of betrayal.

Even if they captured a cult member, they couldn’t interrogate anything specific.

Wei Wo Zheng Sect was able to be so rampant for so many years.

And this time, Fang Che explained in great detail.

The news from Ye Meng was also detailed, including the affairs of the Ximen family, although a minor family, should not be underestimated.

Getting such detailed information for the first time, Fan Tiantiao felt like he had found a treasure.

After sending out the information, he nodded in satisfaction.

This Fang Che really was a treasure trove, assigning Ye Meng to his side was utterly correct.

So he began to write another letter to the Dark Hall: No matter what, do not misuse him!

Very important!

Extremely important!

It’s suggested to upgrade its importance level!
