terious treasure map obtained from the Great Temple was in this area deep within the far north.Since he's already here, Fang Yu might as well follow the treasure map's route. You never know, there mig...North City, Martial Arts Association Headquarters, Underground Prison.

"Teacher, Ouyang Xiuyuan is locked up alone in there." Zheng Ze walked with Huai Xu to the deepest cell on the second floor below ground and said.

Huixu gently nodded her head.

“Ouyang Xiu refused treatment many times, and his condition has deteriorated significantly.” Zheng Ze said again.

Huixiu's face was expressionless as she said, "Open the door."

Zheng Ze took out his key and opened the cell door.

Then, Huixu went inside, while Zhengze waited outside.

The cell was lit by a dim light.

Except for the front gate, all sides are walled.

Ouyang Xiuyuan sat facing the wall opposite the doorway.

Given his current physical condition, his hands and feet are not restrained.

"Bang!"

The gate closed.

Huai Xu slowly walked to Ouyang Xiuyuan's side.

Ou-Yang Xiu stood still, his head drooping to his chest, his limbs hanging limply at his sides.

Besides his chest, which rose and fell slowly, there was no sign of life.

Huixu walked to Ouyang Xiu's side and just looked at him without speaking.

Ouyang Xiu remained motionless, as if he hadn't noticed Huixu's arrival at all.

After a long silence, Huixu spoke, "If you don't accept treatment, you will only live for another half month at most."

"Heh…" Ouyang Xiuyuan let out a cold snort, then coughed violently, blood splattering from his mouth.

Huixu looked at Ouyang Xiu from afar, a hint of pity in her eyes, but not sympathy.

"Huixu, you truly don't remember any old feelings at all." Ouyang Xiuyuan looked up at Huixu, his eyes filled with resentment as he rasped, "It seems you have completely sided with Fang Yu."

"I have not taken sides, I am only doing what I believe is right." Wei Xu said calmly.

"Then why don't you kill me!" Ouyang Xiuyuan roared in anger.

"I told you I would give you a chance to repent," Huixu said.

Ouyang Xiu's face was full of anger, but suddenly he burst into laughter, then laughed heartily.

"Cough cough…" After laughing for a while, Ouyang Xiuyuan spat out a large mouthful of blood again.

"I will never repent, because I have done nothing wrong." Ouyang Xiuyuan trembled and raised his right arm to wipe the blood from his chin, saying fiercely, "No one can force me to admit fault, you can't, nor can Fang Yu!"

"From beginning to end, I've always done what is right for me and my family!"

"I'm not like you, Huixiu. I don't have your sense of justice, your fairness, or your grand vision of saving the world... I'm just an ordinary person who wants to make my family stronger. Is there anything wrong with that! Tell me!" Ouyang Xiuyuan roared. "Most people in this world are like me! Why don't you arrest them all!"

"You can work for the family's profit, but you cannot harm others," Huixu said.

"Ha..." Ouyang Xiuyuan let out a hearty laugh, "Huixu, you're just like Fang Yu's shadow, even your way of speaking mimics him! Do you have any thoughts of your own!"

"If one doesn't act in their own self-interest, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth!"

Huixu looked at Ouyang Xiu from afar, her eyes filled with disappointment.

He didn't even want to say much, turning and walking towards the cell door.

Ouyang Xiuyu watched Huixu's leaving figure, suddenly shouted: "Huixu, don't you want to know the secret about Daokong!"

Hearing this, Huai Xu stopped in his tracks.

He turned and looked at Ouyang Xiuyuan.

"I'm going to die anyway, so I'm willing to tell you everything I know about Dao Kong," Ouyang Xiuyuan gasped. "But in exchange, you have to release Cheng Dao."

Huixu gazed at Ouyang Xiu from afar, letting out a soft sigh.

Back when he and Ouyang Xiu ran wild through the streets and alleys of town, he never could have imagined... that their relationship would develop to this point.

"How is it Is this a fair trade" Ouyang Xiuyuan stared at Huixu, and said, "I fear death not, but Chengdao is different. It was I who led him to his current state. I hope he can live."

Huixu walked slowly back to Ouyang Xiuyuan's side.

Ouyang Xiu's face broke into a smile.

……

Building No. 101, Beidu, Hushan.

Fang Yu is meditating, closing his eyes and calming his mind.

"Master, master!"

Suddenly, a sweet and naive voice came.

As soon as Fang Yu opened his eyes, he saw Xiaofengling standing before him.

"Take a step back." Fang Yu frowned.

"Oh..." Xiaofengling obediently took two steps back.

"What's up" Fang Yu asked.

"I said, you can't curse at me, okay..." Xiaofengling said carefully.

Fang Yu frowned even tighter and asked, "I'm not scolding you, what happened"

“I woke up this morning and discovered that the barrier around our home... had a bit of a problem,” Xiao Fengling said seriously.

"What's the problem" Fang Yu asked again.

"It seems someone used some kind of magic to temporarily isolate the power of the formation... and then entered our mansion." Xiaofengling said.

Has someone entered the mansion

Fāng Yǔ raised an eyebrow and asked, "What time"

“I guess it must have been when I was asleep last night…” Xiaofengling said, lowering her head and poking at her finger.

"How can a spirit like you still sleep... Have you found anyone" Fang Yu took a deep breath and asked.

"No, I spent an hour this morning searching the entire mansion, but I found nothing strange or unusual," Xiaofengling looked up and said, "The intruder didn't leave any traces either, it was as if they just vanished..."

Fang Yu's brows furrowed.

Although Xiao Fengling usually seems unreliable, on this issue, he believes Xiao Fengling wouldn't be talking nonsense.

After all, every formation within the entire manor is linked to the Moon Fairy Wind Chime. No one knows what happened in the manor better than Little Wind Chime.

But the current situation...is not good.

Someone broke into the mansion and left without a trace

This person's purpose for entering is obviously to check the situation inside the mansion.

Just like that, he left. The information within the mansion naturally spread as well.

The most important question is, who are they

It's possible that too many people could have done it, and without any clues, there's no way to figure out who.

"Master... I fixed the formation early this morning and reinforced it with another layer... Those scoundrels won't be able to break in so easily next time..." Xiaofengling said fiercely.

"Will there be a next time" Fang Yu looked at Xiao Fengling.

Little Windbell's face twitched, and she took two steps back, saying in a pitiful voice, "There definitely won't be a next time... I know I was wrong... I'll never make the same mistake again."

"You find a way to add a few more layers of formations, best to make it foolproof." Fang Yu said.become enraged, and could even be said to have lost its rationality.Otherwise, he wouldn't behave like this...To condense seven primordial pills into one, as a means of offenseIsn't this like trading...
