discontent with the Lin family's rise, viewing it as a crisis.Fang Yu's collaboration with the Lin family will undoubtedly drastically change the landscape of Beidu's martial arts world.All in all, th..."Two more idiots walked right in, business at Qinglan Society is really booming." Under a street lamp, a young man smoking took a glance at Fang Yu and Bai Ran who entered the tavern and said.

"After Qinglan Society took over, who else on this street would dare to compete with them for business They can only watch with envy." Another young man shook his head and said.

“There’s really nothing we can do about it. I heard the head of Qinglan Society was invited to a banquet at Sha Shen Temple not too long ago…” the young man smoking said.

……

Compared to the bustling, crowded streets filled with pedestrians, the tavern seemed quite deserted.

The light was dim, and the atmosphere was quiet.

Fang Yu glanced around and saw only four guests. Two of them were sitting in a corner, drinking silently. The other two were sitting at the bar, but they were separated by several seats, seemingly strangers.

It was called a tavern, but it had none of the usual tavern ambiance.

When Fang Yu and Bai Ran walked into the tavern, all four guests turned their heads to glance at them, their eyes filled with different expressions.

Their reaction, Fang Yu saw it all.

"Why is this tavern so empty" Bai Ran asked in a low voice.

The stunning woman ahead turned her head and smiled, "Handsome, it's only four o'clock in the afternoon. Come back at ten tonight, it'll be even more lively than you imagine!"

Bai Ran glanced at Fang Yu, seeing no reaction from him, so she didn't say anything more.

A bewitching woman, accompanied by Fang Yu and Bai Ran, walked up to the bar and winked at the burly bartender wearing a sleeveless shirt.

"Brother Niu Er, where's Ale," the woman asked the burly man at the bar, inserting the half-burnt cigarette she was holding into the ashtray on the counter.

The burly man glanced at Fang Yu and Bai Ran, a barely perceptible glint of malice flashing in his eyes. In a low, deep voice, he asked: "Ale was sent out by me to run an errand. What do you want with him"

"These two handsome guys from out of town wanted to ask him something." The sultry woman said.

"If you need anything, just ask me." The burly man looked at Fang Yu and Bai Ran and said.

Báirán once again looked at Fang Yǔ.

Fang Yu nodded, indicating that he could speak.

"We're looking for a little girl who was kidnapped by an old man. They were last seen on this street yesterday. Do you remember seeing them" Bai Ran asked.

"Niu Er is the owner of the tavern, he rarely goes out and about, he definitely didn't see... Or let's just wait for Ale to come back and talk about it." The alluring woman said.

"Well, Ale will definitely be back within half an hour. You guys just have some drinks here and wait a while." The strong man said, turning to pour the wine.

At this time, Fang Yu noticed a tattoo on the back of the strong man's neck.

The tattoo was mostly covered by the collar, only a portion of it was visible.

But from this part, it should not be a large pattern, but some kind of totem, or rune.

And this kind of tattoo, Fang Yu had also noticed while he was sizing up the other four customers in the shop just now.

Obviously, the four people in the shop were not customers; they were part of the tavern itself, or perhaps they were with the strongman.

On the other hand, the woman leading the way didn't have that tattoo on her neck.

"Come on, have a seat and have some wine first." The woman turned around and said, "The wine Niu Er makes is the best on this street... no, the entire Xi Du! You're lucky to have the chance to try it."

The woman, accompanied by Fang Yu and Bai Ran, walked to a table at the back and sat down.

Before long, the tavern owner nicknamed Niu Er arrived, carrying two high-ball glasses. He placed them in front of Fang Yu and Bai Ran.

"Special Reserve, that's my best seller here," Niu Er said.

After that, he exchanged glances with the woman and turned back to the bar.

"Isn't this kind of tavern all about drinking beer How come they're serving cocktails now" Fang Yu asked.

The woman squeezed her snowy chest and said, "This is a feature of Xidu. You'll know if you try it."

Fāng Yǔ smiled and picked up the highball glass in front of him.

In the glass, there is a pale blue liquid.

Even with your toes, you could tell there was something added to this drink.

The woman before me is nothing but a babysitter, she could even be considered a pimp.

while the tavern owner and four others constituted a single organized group.

The woman brought Fang Yu and Bai Ran here, probably treating them as out-of-town naive youngsters she could swindle.

This kind of trick, Fang Yu was very familiar with.

The moment a woman approached them on the street and initiated a conversation, he already had a pretty good idea of what was going on.

The reason it hasn't been exposed yet is that I still hold a glimmer of hope.

After all, the pub is just across from the dumpster.

What if they really have clues about Ling'er

So, Fang Yu decided to cooperate with the performance, drink the wine down, and wait for Ale's return.

Of course, Fang Yu knew that Ale probably didn't exist. His purpose was merely to buy time, waiting for the effects of the medicine in the liquor to take hold.

Jian Fangyu looked up and drank the wine in one gulp, a triumphant smile appeared on the woman's face.

Fang Yu drank one cup and wasn't satisfied. He grabbed Bai Ran's glass from in front of him and finished it too.

This was done because Fang Yu was uncertain if Bai Ran could withstand the effects of the medicine in the wine.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, it's better to drink it all at once.

The woman saw Fang Yu drink Bai Ran's as well, and said with a hint of reproach, "Why did you drink your companion's I'll have Niu Er make another cup."

"No need, he doesn't drink." Fang Yu said.

The woman's face changed slightly, and she turned her head to look at the bar, exchanging a glance with Niu Er.

Niuniu nodded.

"Well, then have some juice! Our Xi Du hawthorn juice is quite famous, you should definitely try it." The woman said, standing up and walking towards the bar.

"Mr. Fang, I can withstand the medicine's power; you need not worry." At this moment, Bai Ran transmitted a message to Fang Yu.

Fang Yu glanced at Bai Ran and said nothing.

A moment later, the woman placed a glass of orange juice in front of Bai Ran.

Bái rán picked it up and drank it.

Then, there was a wait.

A woman was talking in a rambling way, constantly checking her phone for the time.

Fifteen minutes passed, and Fang Yu and Bai Ran still acted normally.

But this situation is not normal!

Those drinks have strong drugs in them! Theoretically, they should take effect in about five minutes!

Another ten minutes passed.

The woman became increasingly impatient, turning to glance at Niu Er several times.

But Niu Er also had a puzzled look on his face.

How is this possible

His medicine is always effective, so why did it fail today

Soon, half an hour passed.

"Where is Ale back yet" Fangyu asked.

"He's probably stuck in traffic on the way back. Have a few more drinks, he'll be back for sure." Just then, Niu Er walked over again carrying two drinks.

"Seems like this person is gone" Fang Yu looked up and looked at Niu Er.

Niu Er's expression froze for a moment, then he frowned and said, "What do you mean"

"I said, Ale doesn't really exist, right You've definitely increased the dosage of the drug in these two drinks compared to before, haven't you" Fang Yu smiled slightly.

"You!"

Upon being exposed, Niu Er no longer feigned innocence. A cruel gleam appeared in his eyes as he drew a sharp dagger from behind his waist and lunged at Fang Yu's chest with a fierce thrust.

"Click!"

Niu Er's dagger plunged directly into Fang Yu's chest.

The voluptuous woman sitting beside him screamed and backed away repeatedly, frightened.

But Niu Er was stunned at this moment.

He stabbed Fang Yu in the chest, like stabbing a stone. The dagger broke!

"This..." Niu Er's eyes widened, looking at Fang Yu in disbelief.

"Bang!"

At this moment, Fang Yu suddenly reached out and grabbed Niu Er's left arm, pulling him forward. Then, with one hand gripping his head, he slammed it onto the table with a force that shattered the tabletop!

The other four accomplices in the shop's faces changed, and they immediately surrounded him.

"If you don't want to die, let our boss go immediately!" the four accomplices said menacingly from the sidelines.

"Let go You wasted half an hour of my precious time, I have to collect some interest." Fang Yu smiled faintly, stamping Niu Er's head into the ground.

"Ah..."

The ox bellowed in pain, its body convulsing, blood streaming down its head.

"Do you know who we are You hurt Niu Er, don't even think about leaving Xidu!" A thin man shouted.all all die here!" the black dragon snarled."That's not necessarily true..." Xiutáo gasped, "The Ethereal Saint's target would only be Fang Yu."As for us... as long as we can withdraw to a certain dis...
