Chapter 104 Killing

Fang Yue shook his head.

"I don't know them."

"Strange. I have no impression of these two at all, but they're spending money so lavishly. They're definitely outsiders. I just don't know when they entered the village. Such wealthy people, and no one reported them…"

She frowned slightly, biting her fingernails as she thought.

Fang Yue then said, "I'm quite interested in their identities as well. If Captain Huo has any news, please let me know. If you need my help… I'll do my best."

Fang Yue paused at the end of his sentence.

He thought of the prophecy from the parchment and felt that the black-robed people were still too dangerous. He didn't want to be directly involved with them if possible.

"Of course, we need to investigate their identities. Maintaining the safety of Mo Village is also our captain's responsibility. We naturally need to investigate the background of two people with unknown origins who are hiding their faces. By the way, you know the way, right? You can go back on your own today. I won't be going back. I'll wait here for those two to come out and question them."

Question them?

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Yue whispered, "Then please be careful."

"Don't worry, no one in Mo Village dares to disrespect the captain."

Captain Huo didn't seem to care at all.

As they were talking, a luxurious carriage suddenly sped towards them from a distance.

The crowd at the entrance scattered, and the guards of the Black Crow Merchant Troupe stopped the carriage.

The carriage stopped, and an old man dressed as a butler stepped out of the carriage. He glanced at Fang Yue's side, and his eyes lit up.

After saying a few words to the guard, he walked towards them.

"Captain Huo, good afternoon. May I ask, is this Master Ye?"

Fang Yue was stunned. Who is this old man? Why does he recognize me?

Captain Huo narrowed her eyes.

"Old Zhao? What are you doing here? Where is your master?"

"My master is waiting in the carriage and instructed me to invite Master Ye into the carriage for a chat."

"Oh? Only inviting Captain Ye, not me?"

"This…"

Cold sweat appeared on the old butler's forehead, and he lowered his head nervously.

"I, I can't make the decision. Please wait a moment while I ask my master for instructions."

"No need."

Captain Huo said with a smile, "Just have your master spend more time with me next time. It just so happens that I have something to do and can't leave for the time being."

"Thank you, thank you for your understanding, Captain Huo."

The old butler breathed a sigh of relief, then made a gesture of invitation to Fang Yue.

Fang Yue frowned and looked at Captain Huo, who casually said, "Go ahead, his master is a refugee, you should have a lot to talk about."

Refugee?!

Fang Yue's pupils shrank.

A refugee who can afford to hire a butler and seems to have a high status.

Wait! Captain Huo seemed to have said that she had a good relationship with a refugee, could it be…

Fang Yue quickly made a judgment in his heart, put away his thoughts, and followed the butler towards the luxurious carriage.

As long as it's a player, no one is his opponent!

At least for now, Fang Yue had such confidence!

Following the butler to the carriage, the butler stopped.

Seeing this, Fang Yue didn't hesitate and directly entered the carriage.

The light in the carriage was not as dark as expected. The dim evening sun shone in, illuminating the interior.

The space inside was not small, the decoration was luxurious, and the fragrance was strong and refreshing.

Inside the carriage sat a pretty girl in her early twenties.

She was closing her eyes to rest, and when she heard the movement, she slowly opened her phoenix eyes and spoke softly.

"Ye Se Liming?" (Night Twilight)

"That's me, you are…"

"Wei Liang."

Sure enough!

Fang Yue understood in his heart.

Captain Huo had said before that she got along well with a refugee player named Wei Liang.

So when Captain Huo said that the carriage owner was a refugee and had a good attitude, Fang Yue roughly guessed the other party's identity.

But… why is this guy looking for me?

"Please sit down first. Although I bought the most luxurious carriage in Mo Village, a carriage is still a carriage, and it's still a bit bumpy when it moves."

As she spoke, Wei Liang slightly opened the curtain and said to the butler waiting outside, "Old Zhao, drive on."

"Yes!"

The old butler went to the coachman and sat in front. Soon the carriage moved.

The curtains in the carriage were drawn. Fang Yue lifted them slightly and looked outside.

On the street, the surrounding scenery was moving.

Even though the carriage was not moving fast, the villagers all avoided it when they saw the luxurious carriage.

A luxurious carriage is a symbol of status, and no one wants to cause trouble.

Putting down the curtain, Fang Yue sat opposite Wei Liang and asked, "Not bad, I didn't expect that there really are players who can do so well in a big village like Mo Village! Really impressive! Can you tell me the secret of your success?"

"Money."

Fang Yue: …

Okay, what a boring, uninteresting, and simple answer!

"Uh… then what does this rich lady want from me?"

Although the other party is a rich woman, it's not like Fang Yue hasn't seen one before.

Bai Xiaoya, another rich woman, prepares his breakfast every day!

Coupled with his wealth of tens of millions, he is full of courage and naturally has no possibility of stage fright.

However, facing Fang Yue's question, Wei Liang simply flicked her hair and said lightly.

"I've known about you for a long time, Ye Se Liming. The strongest player in Guyue Village, killed many youkai (monsters) single-handedly, his strength is unfathomable, he is the vice-captain but has the authority of the captain, and now he has directly become the captain."

"I started learning about you from the forums. After learning about you, I also paid to buy the technical posts you posted. I have also followed up on the special interview posts about you from Jingshe Studio."

Wait, wait!

What is this?

Could it be… am I meeting a fan?

Fang Yue was a little proud.

But soon he felt something was wrong.

Although this fan seemed like a yandere (obsessive stalker) who frantically followed his every move, when she said this information, there were no emotional fluctuations at all, as if she was just stating a trivial matter.

This… doesn't seem like the attitude of a fan.

Fang Yue was wondering what status he should place Wei Liang in when he heard Wei Liang suddenly change the subject.

"However, you really entered my sight because of one of my subordinates. He is called Shao Ting, do you have any impression?"

Shao Ting?

Fang Yue felt that the name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it no matter how hard he tried.

It wasn't until a long time later that he suddenly slapped his thigh.

"Oh! It's that player who wanted to become my apprentice and was killed by me! Let me make it clear first, I was acting in self-defense."

Fang Yue thought, judging by the way she spoke, she probably didn't have any close relationship with Shao Ting, so she wouldn't trouble me for Shao Ting's sake, right?

Besides, players die and they die, it's not like they can't be resurrected. Just wait 24 hours and enter the game again, change your body, and you're a good man again! It's not like Fang Yue, who has been working hard for so long and has cultivated his character so well.

When Shao Ting died, he hadn't even stayed in the village for a day.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not here to stand up for Shao Ting. He's just an insignificant person."

Oh… she's not here to stand up for her subordinate.

"Then… what do you want from me?"

"I want you to help me kill someone."

Kill someone?

"Sister, this is Mo Village, killing someone…"

"Five Huotou Ye." (Fire Penetrating Leaves)

"…"

Fang Yue was stunned.

It wasn't that he was scared by the price, he just… didn't know what Huotou Ye was.

"Looking at you, you don't know the use of this thing?"

Wei Liang frowned slightly and asked suspiciously.

Fang Yue shook his head honestly.

"How can it be…"

Wei Liang was slightly stunned: "You are the number one player, how can you not even know Huotou Ye?"

Ahem!

This is called specialization in different fields, I am the number one person who specializes in fighting youkai (monsters), who cares about leaves.

After a moment of silence, Wei Liang took out five fiery red, translucent, crystal-clear leaves and said.

"Huotou Ye is a kind of thing that can turn black embers or black stones into fire stone embers or fire stones."

"After the black stone is converted, using it to assist in the cultivation of fire attribute exercises will have miraculous effects."

"Even though I have developed to this point in Mo Village, I still paid a considerable price to obtain Huotou Ye, which can be said to be a big loss. According to its value, it can probably be worth seven or eight black stones, but it is priceless."

"I have watched your videos, and every time you make a move, sparks turn into a big fire. The practice you are practicing should be a fire attribute without a doubt."

Explaining this, Wei Liang looked at Fang Yue, waiting for Fang Yue's meaning.

I have to say, Fang Yue was tempted.

He is practicing the Xinghuo Xinfa (Spark Heart Method).

Now, if he wants to practice the Liehuo Xinfa (Blazing Fire Heart Method) that he just bought, it is equivalent to changing his heart method and starting from scratch.

Starting from the acquired third-rate realm, he needs to rush through the realm again. After successfully breaking through to the acquired second-rate realm, it can be considered that the replacement of the heart method is officially completed.

If there is fire stone assistance converted from Huotou Ye, it will definitely have miraculous effects - although he does not have a single black stone in hand now.

After thinking about it, Fang Yue said: "Add 5 more black stones."

"…You're really asking for a lot." Wei Liang frowned slightly, staring at Fang Yue. Seeing that Fang Yue had no intention of backing down, she gently crossed her hands on her knees, her right index finger lightly tapping the back of her left hand, seemingly thinking and measuring.

Soon, she stopped her movements and said coldly: "Okay, I accept this condition. 5 black stones, 5 Huotou Ye, in exchange for you to take action once."

Fang Yue was overjoyed.

Generous, as expected of a rich woman who made money in Mo Village, she doesn't even blink an eye when she mentions 5 black stones.

"Then, who do you want me to kill? Let me make it clear first, I will not use my current identity to kill people. If the captain of Guyue Village kills someone in Mo Village, it will not be a small matter."

"Of course I know, if you trust me, I can ask someone to help you disguise yourself."

"Disguise? How good is the effect?"

"…Not very ideal, similar to real-life makeup, but even if I find the most talented person to learn, the disguise effect at a low level is still easily recognized, far inferior to putting on a hood or covering your face. However, when the disguise level is high, you should be able to change your face, after all, it is a skill."

Then I might as well use a human skin mask.

"I'll find a way to disguise myself, tell me first, who do you want to kill? Is it some short-sighted player who offended you?"

That's right, in Fang Yue's opinion, if a player like Wei Liang wants to ask him to take action, it must be a pk between players.

And Fang Yue hasn't been afraid of battles between players!

It's just that killing people in Mo Village still has to take into account the reputation of the three captains and Guyue Village, so it's better to change his face.

"Players?"

Wei Liang shook her head.

"No, there are currently not many players who have grown to the point where they can threaten me. Even the strongest ones under me have not yet entered the martial arts path, they are just learning vulgar martial arts. People with this kind of strength can already be dealt with by the servants I hired for my manor."

"…Not a player? Then who do you want to kill?"

Wei Liang was silent for a moment, then directly uttered three words.

"Captain Huo."

Fang Yue: !!!

"Who?!"

"Captain Huo, one of the three major captains of Mo Village."

"Are you crazy! That's an acquired second-rate martial artist! I'm not necessarily her opponent, why should I kill her! And that's a captain of Mo Village, do you know how much impact it will have, how sensational it will be, and how intense the reaction will be if you kill a captain of Mo Village? And… isn't Captain Huo your best friend? When she mentioned you, it was clear that you had a good relationship, she doesn't seem like the type to bully you."

If he goes at night, with the support of the Breath of Night, Fang Yue is certain that he can kill Captain Huo.

But, why!

Just 5 black stones and 5 Huotou Ye, you want me to do such a risky thing, the value is simply not equal.

Is this woman overestimating her abilities? Captain Huo is not someone she can deal with.

Listening to Fang Yue's words, Wei Liang's expression was calm.

"I don't have any grudges with Captain Huo, it's just that my development has encountered a bottleneck."

"What do you mean?"

"It is true that you can use money to build a local merchant. But it is very difficult to climb up and control a village and become the master of the village. Only by having a captain who is your own in the village can you truly control the village. And use this as a base to carry out vigorous development."

"What does this have to do with killing Captain Huo? You don't even have someone who can replace Captain Huo. If she dies, you won't be able to get any benefits, right?"

"I have."

Wei Liang stretched out a finger: "You are the one who will replace Captain Huo."

"What? Me? Are you crazy? Am I not going back to Guyue Village?"

"What's so good about going back to Guyue Village? I've watched the video, Guyue Village is just a small village, what makes you so reluctant to leave? Women? Exercises? Or resources? I can give you all of these. As players, we can help each other and develop together in Mo Village. We will become the strongest players and the strongest guild in the game!"

Ah, this…

Fang Yue scratched his head.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in killing Captain Huo, and I'm not interested in staying in Mo Village. As for the strongest player, I am now. As for the strongest guild, you can slowly work hard."

Saying this, Fang Yue was about to get up, but Wei Liang quickly grabbed his wrist.

"Wait! Ye Se Liming, think carefully. You are indeed the strongest player now, but as time goes by and the overall level of players increases, can you still maintain the momentum of rapid progress and always maintain the top spot? Don't underestimate the heroes of the world. And if I help you, whether in the game or in reality, I will help you with all my strength!"

Fang Yue gently moved her hand away and shrugged.

"I don't really care about the top spot, in fact, I'm looking forward to someone being able to stand shoulder to shoulder with me at the peak, but unfortunately there is no one."

[Bullshit!]

Fang Yue: !!!

Enough! You came out at this time! Didn't you see that I was creating my own image of a master!!

Can you give me some face!!
