Chapter 408: Chapter 438: Undercover Work

Fang Yi had already finished interrogating the young man in white. He was about to light up a cigarette when he suddenly heard a fierce shout. Turning his head, he saw three young men in white standing there, glaring at him with fury.

Fang Yi gave the three a once-over and could tell they held a noticeably higher status than the young man in white he had caught. When Fang Yi had been asking this young man about the internal affairs of the Sky Sword Sect, he hadn’t been able to answer some questions. Fang Yi had been worrying about this when, unexpectedly, three more people had shown up.

Fang Yi smirked, a somewhat sly expression forming on his face.

"May I ask if the three of you are true disciples of the Sky Sword Sect?" Fang Yi said with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes.

"Indeed!" one of the three said coldly, "You dare to lay a hand on a disciple of the Sky Sword Sect, are you seeking death?"

The other two looked at Fang Yi coolly.

They each had swords on their backs and now rested their hands on the hilts, ready to draw and fight at any moment.

Fang Yi’s smile grew even more cunning and, without saying a word, he attacked the three men.

The three of them sneered coldly, and one of them shouted, "You actually dare to strike at us, you truly have a death wish!"

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

All three simultaneously drew their iron swords and pounced towards Fang Yi.

Their swords stabbed at him in unison, the sword light as bright as snow, surrounding Fang Yi completely. They attacked him from all around, targeting his vital points with coordinated strikes.

Fang Yi chuckled coldly. He had come to Sky Sword Mountain fully prepared for battle. Although his approach had been stealthy, he had expected combat to ensue.

He sensed immediately as they made their move that these three were at the Earth Level first stage.

To Fang Yi, the Earth Level first stage posed no concern, no matter the numbers.

He utilized Divine Travel Steps, his movements ghostly and unpredictable. In an instant, he pushed his speed to the extreme. The three men’s swords missed him entirely, and taking advantage of the opening, Fang Yi caught the blade of one of the iron swords between his fingers.

To the astonishment of the young man holding it, Fang Yi pulled the iron sword from his grasp. In the blink of an eye, the iron sword was in Fang Yi’s hand.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, Fang Yi reversed the sword and stabbed the shoulder of the swordless young man, creating a bloody hole.

The remaining two, with serious expressions and further enraged, had thought they could easily defeat Fang Yi. But, in a matter of moments, Fang Yi had injured one of them, showing strength far beyond their own.

The collision of iron swords produced a loud metallic clash and sparks flew.

"Sweeping a Thousand Armies!"

The sword in Fang Yi’s hand sang like a dragon, carrying a fierce wind as it swept across the front of the remaining two.

In fact, Fang Yi wasn’t skilled with swords, but he had learned Swordsmanship among various other Martial Arts from his old master, in addition to practicing Eight Extremes Fist and Mountain Breaking.

As the iron sword swept out, the two men felt the powerful current carried by the blade forcing them to retreat repeatedly, their faces filled with shock. Fang Yi’s iron sword continued to thrust, leaving the two without any power to retaliate.

The second young man in white now had a bloody hole pierced through his shoulder, and the last one received a deep cut on his arm from Fang Yi’s sword, dropping his iron sword to the ground.

Fang Yi leapt forward, rushing up to them and sealed their acupoints.

Ten minutes later, all three young men in white were sitting on the ground, their faces seething with rage. They tried to struggle, but it was futile, and they were also screaming and cursing angrily.

"Fang Yi, do you know what you’re doing, you’re bringing death upon yourself!"

"We’re the true disciples of the Sky Sword Sect, if you dare treat us like this, you’re making an enemy of the entire Sky Sword Sect!"

```

"With your skills, why not let us go and fight one-on-one!"

"..."

Each of them was yelling, teeth clenched in rage, being restrained by Fang Yi like this—it’d be a lie to say they weren’t angry.

Fang Yi had already lit a cigarette, visibly annoyed as a chilling gleam flashed in his eyes, and his murderous intent flickered briefly.

Then his iron sword sliced through the air, and bright red blood gushed out like a fountain.

Bang!

A head fell to the ground, rolling to a stop right in front of two young men in white. It seemed almost like fate that the head was facing them, eyes wide open in death, obviously unaccepting of its fate.

The two remaining youths in white instantly fell silent, as if frozen, their faces which had been red with anger now turned pale as frost, drenched in cold sweat with eyes wide open in terror.

A cold shiver ran down their backs; they hadn’t expected Fang Yi to actually kill someone—and so suddenly, without any warning. It was just too... terrifying!

Fang Yi’s lips curled up in what seemed to be a smile, yet it was a cold, mocking one.

"Now, you two will answer whatever I ask. Otherwise, I’ll send you to join him," Fang Yi said, thrusting his iron sword into the ground sharply.

"Yes...yes..."

The sight of a severed head and a decapitated body was something no one wanted to witness, let alone experience. Terrifying to even think about, these two had lived their whole lives on Sky Sword Mountain. Though skilled in martial arts, they had never taken a life, not even seen such carnage.

Put simply, in front of this predatory wolf that was Fang Yi, they were nothing but sheep with mere pretenses of strength—Fang Yi was no match for them.

Therefore, in the time that followed, Fang Yi repeatedly interrogated them. Any inconsistency and he’d start all over; Fang Yi spent a full two hours before he finally grasped the situation of the Sky Sword Sect.

"We... we’ve told you everything, you... you see..." The two looked at Fang Yi with a glimmer of hope in their eyes.

"Mm, it’s good that you’ve finished talking. Time for you to descend to the netherworld," Fang Yi said with a cold smile.

Their expressions drastically changed, filled with horror as they screamed, "We’ve told you everything, yet you still want to strike us down! You... you have no honor!"

Fang Yi chuckled, "I have no intention of keeping my word with anyone from the Sky Sword Sect."

His arm raised, the sword fell.

Two heads tumbled to the ground, and just like that, three of the Sky Sword Sect’s true disciples were killed by Fang Yi, with not a hint of mercy in him.

Killing had become second nature to Fang Yi; he never possessed a compassionate heart toward his enemies.

Since the Sky Sword Sect had stooped to kidnapping Bai Jingjing, such a despicable and shameless act, Fang Yi saw no reason to reason with them.

However, after Fang Yi killed these three, there was still one more left—the young man in white he’d first captured. Seeing Fang Yi’s gaze shift towards him, he felt as if plunged into an icehouse, utterly terrified.

Fang Yi walked over to the young man in white and asked, "What is your name?"

"Chang... Chang Wei."

"...That name sounds somewhat familiar. Never mind that, open your mouth," Fang Yi ordered.

Chang Wei was extremely unwilling, but Fang Yi’s cold-blooded methods had scared him enough to slowly open his mouth. As soon as he did, a red pill was tossed into it. He reacted too late, accidentally swallowing it.

"What... what did you give me to eat..." Chang Wei cried out in alarm.

"Heart Shattering Pill—if you don’t get the antidote, you’ll bleed out from every orifice and die," Fang Yi explained.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Become an undercover agent," Fang Yi said with a slight smile. "From now on, you are my inside man in the Sky Sword Sect. If you don’t comply, you’ll end up like them."

Chang Wei swallowed hard, glancing at the three headless corpses, and nodded with difficulty.
