Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

Monk Quan Heng asked once again.

It seems like he’s not asking whether we’ll go to the An Mansion, but rather if we want to stay there.

According to Ding Hui’s theory, the most dangerous place is the safest one, so the An Mansion is indeed the prime example of hiding in plain sight. I doubt the Foolish Underworld could ever imagine that the people they’re after would be guests within the Ten Major Families.

However, the Ten Major Families likely have old monsters residing there. The scale of Thunder City isn’t comparable to Sunset City; the older the Family Heads in the city are, the more likely they’re hiding old monsters.

Visiting briefly is fine, with Monk Quan Heng’s protection, the chance of encountering those old monsters is minimal.

But staying long-term is unnecessary. Although the Forest Snake Gang is somewhat weak, at least it’s considered our own turf. Moving in and out is convenient. If we stay at the An Mansion, we’d be limited at every turn.

”I’ll pass; though the Forest Snake Gang is small, the lodging is comfortable, so there’s no need to switch places. As for tomorrow’s plans... If Master Quan Heng doesn’t mind, let Ding Hui follow you, just make sure to take good care of her.”

”My husband’s opinion is my opinion!”

Ding Hui chimed in stickily.

”Amitabha, then tomorrow, Benefactor Guo and Master Ding can accompany me back to the An Mansion. I’m just going back to check on things. Based on previous assessments, the An Mansion is unlikely to be ready for rituals anytime soon; something seems fishy.”

Monk Quan Heng’s latter words were so low they seemed intended for his own ears.

Fang Yu suddenly had clarity of thought.

With this turn of events, tomorrow Ding Hui will follow Monk Quan Heng back to the An Mansion, allowing him to go search for demons!

That means... tomorrow is hunting time!

Thinking about it, Fang Yu felt a bit of anticipation, curious about the level of demon intelligence provided by the Rebel Army.

Hopefully, they’ll have some Great Demons with four to fifty thousand blood; five to sixty thousand would be perfect, but if it’s a super Great Demon with six to seventy thousand, then he’d need a careful plan or choose a secluded corner to unleash strong moves.

Though a banquet is great, it’s not easily digestible.

Even though nothing is set in stone yet, Fang Yu has already started feeling quietly excited and a bit expectant.

With things settled here, Guo Yuxin started pestering Monk Quan Heng to teach her martial arts, completely unaware of what shame is...

Meanwhile, Ding Hui took her various jars and utensils and went inside.

Fang Yu followed her in, but he was suddenly called.

”Mr. Diao.”

Turning around, he saw the Forest Snake Gang’s Hall Master Xiong Rudong, along with the other two Hall Masters Tian Xinghan and Zhang Xiangzhi.

Fang Yu didn’t have much interaction with the other two, but he had quite a fondness for Xiong Rudong, the sturdy man.

Only after greeting them did he realize they had come to express their gratitude.

All three were still injured, bandaged and medicated, which didn’t look good, but they specifically came to express their respect, which was considerate.

One doesn’t strike a smiling face, so Fang Yu naturally accepted them warmly.

”Had Mr. Diao not intervened this time, our Forest Snake Gang would’ve faced extinction.”

”Mr. Diao turns the tide; having you as a Guest Elder is a blessing to the Forest Snake Gang!”

”Mr. Diao, when you first arrived, I didn’t quite care for you. But now, I’m convinced! From now on, unless commanded by the Gang Leader, I only listen to Mr. Diao!”

As they kept flattering him, Fang Yu began to feel a bit airy.

But then he thought...

I merely beat some weaklings. Haven’t really done anything significant.

Looking at their combat power of over four thousand blood...

Honestly, it wasn’t like he did anything great; it’s just that they were too weak...

That said, four to five thousand blood at Tianyuan Town means a Captain level, the backbone of Tianyuan Town’s strength.

In Thunder City, I’m not sure where this strength ranks; it should be considered backbone strength.

After all, in Thunder City’s Foolish Underworld, Captain level only boasts about five thousand blood.

This indicates that this level is just enough to hold one’s ground.

”Husband, invite them inside to chat; it’s late, and chilly outside.”

Ding Hui spoke up, though offering them in, yet they spontaneously declined and took their leave.

Before long, they were gone.

Fang Yu closed the door after entering, realizing Ding Hui was smiling at him.

”Diao Keqing, willing to come in?”

”Don’t tease. What are your plans for Song Zhenrong’s side tomorrow?”

Regarding Song Zhenrong, Fang Yu couldn’t help at all.

”Just let the servants inform them in the morning; right now, my thoughts aren’t clear enough to act rashly.”

There was nothing Fang Yu could help with in this matter, so he said, ”Just manage it yourself; on my side, I’ll try to wrap things up tomorrow, so you can be free to make visits.”

He paused, curious.

”By the way, what do you know about those Ten Pillars within the Ten Major Families?”

Ding Hui shook her head slightly.

”Although my time in Thunder City wasn’t short, I know little about the Sky-reaching Pillars.”

”Firstly, because at the time, I was a novice and hadn’t gained enough reputation in Thunder City to access such colossal entities like the Ten Major Families.”

”Secondly, the Sky-reaching Pillars are quite special, exclusive objects of the Ten Major Families.”

”Not just me, even within the Ten Major Families, for their young masters and lady-lords, or even those of higher status, it might be out of reach.”

”So, when I heard Master Quan Heng was repairing the An Family’s Demon Suppression Pillar, I was quite surprised. It seems Zhongfu Temple’s reputation is useful.” Ding Hui concluded.

It might be a mistake, but Fang Yu felt Ding Hui seemed not to cherish Monk Quan Heng that much...

Could it be just a bias because Monk Quan Heng comes from Zhongfu Temple?

And Zhongfu Temple isn’t lacking.

Monks of Zhongfu Temple act for good and accrue merit. Although according to Ding Hui, the high monks there are peculiar, their accumulated reputation over the years, their name, and their reputation should be quite high.

Most importantly, they have the skills.

Those Ten Pillars aren’t something anyone can repair; it takes Thunder City calling Zhongfu Temple from afar for help, indicating Zhongfu Temple holds the core know-how.

”Have you asked how Master Quan Heng plans to repair the Demon Suppression Pillar?” Fang Yu asked curiously.

”Of course, but Master Quan Heng said it’s a unique method inherited from his sect and can’t be revealed. However, permission to observe is enough; understanding his repair method through complete observation should not be difficult.”

Ding Hui spoke as if it was a simple matter.

But in truth, achieving this is nearly impossible.

Like a martial arts genius who learns techniques merely by watching them a few times and then deploying them in combat—it’s rather an outrageous feat...

”Oh, by the way!”

As if recalled something, Ding Hui suddenly said.

”During my time in Thunder City, while inquiring about the Ten Pillars, I heard guesses suggesting they might be ten artifacts!”

”...Are you serious?”

”Who knows, there are many speculations within Thunder City about the Ten Pillars. The artifact theory is relatively credible. But consider, if artifacts are fragments of Immortal Treasures, and these Ten Sky-reaching Pillars are all artifacts, then what level of Immortal Treasures could this have been?”

Ding Hui looked yearning, even for someone who dislikes martial arts, she holds a fascination for the Immortal Gods.

”If the Ten Pillars are artifacts, it’s not a big deal. But if they truly suppress demons, that would be extraordinary...”

Fang Yu whispered.

”You don’t say, the arrangement of the Ten Pillars encompasses array principles. I learned a bit about arrays recently and noticed some signs. However, Pillars suppressing demons... hmm, hard to say. Perhaps it’s true. Oh, by the way! Do you remember the Hai Family’s array in Sunset City?”
