Chapter 557: Chapter 600, No Reason Not to Help Your Man, Right?

The other party’s line, "I’ll kill your sister," caused Qin Cheng a moment of astonishment, but he quickly snapped out of it, grabbed Nangong Lengxue in front of him, and used her as a shield.

The shadowy figure also closed in.

However, he didn’t immediately strike, but rather circled to Qin Cheng’s side.

Qin Cheng sensed Fang Yi’s intention, pulled Nangong Lengxue back, and said coldly, "Don’t come any closer, come any closer, and don’t blame me for being rude!"

Fang Yi did not respond, his clawed hand shooting out like lightning.

Qin Cheng had never expected Fang Yi to completely ignore his threat and brazenly attack, as if he didn’t value Nangong Lengxue’s life at all.

Could it be... that he wasn’t one of Nangong Lengxue’s subordinates? Not even a friend of Nangong Lengxue? Or perhaps he didn’t even know Nangong Lengxue?

Qin Cheng hesitated, having assumed that taking Nangong Lengxue hostage would allow him to threaten the opponent and do as he pleased, but his situation now was far beyond Qin Cheng’s expectations.

"I have nothing to do with this person. Since you’ve shown up on this island, I must kill to silence," Fang Yi said.

As the words left his mouth and reached Qin Cheng’s ears, they instantly solidified his guess.

So the hostage he’d taken was actually a burden.

Cursing loudly, Qin Cheng immediately pushed Nangong Lengxue aside and tried to flee.

However, when Nangong Lengxue was pushed and was about to fall, Fang Yi stopped attacking Qin Cheng and turned to catch Nangong Lengxue.

Seeing this, Qin Cheng was initially startled, as if he hadn’t quite grasped what was happening, but as soon as he did, he understood everything and exploded with rage, "You tricked me?!"

Fang Yi looked infuriatingly smug as he smiled and said, "I was indeed tricking you, what are you going to do, bite me?"

Qin Cheng was seething with fury, irked by Fang Yi’s words, but ultimately he didn’t retaliate and turned to run, understanding that he was no match for Fang Yi.

Yet how could Fang Yi let Qin Cheng just escape like that?

At that moment, Fang Yi executed Divine Travel Steps, and before Qin Cheng had run even a dozen meters, Fang Yi was already upon him.

Fang Yi had mastered the Divine Travel Steps to perfection, and now, at its pinnacle, it was reputed to rival the Wave-Riding Light Step. There was no escape for Qin Cheng.

With no chance to escape, he had no choice but to confront him head-on.

However, Qin Cheng was merely Earth Level first stage, while Fang Yi was Earth Level fifth stage, a disparity in strength that was simply insurmountable.

In less than a minute, Qin Cheng was sent flying and smashed into a tree. Like a tiger descending the mountain, Fang Yi closed in on the fallen Qin Cheng, a dagger now in his hand. With two feints, Qin Cheng’s thighs were pierced, bleeding profusely.

Then, with another light tap of the dagger, wounds appeared on Qin Cheng’s arms, rendering his limbs useless. Devoid of any strength to fight and unable to even stand, Qin Cheng lay defeated.

Yet, Qin Cheng was not resigned and glared fiercely at Fang Yi, shouting, "Who are you to dare meddle in the affairs of the Dragon Team?!"

He was met with the sole of a shoe in response.

Fang Yi kicked Qin Cheng down to lie on the ground and said coldly, "Don’t try to threaten me with the Dragon Team! You, as a Guard Captain of the Blood Dragon Guard, dare to betray us, I truly pity you."

Ignoring Qin Cheng further, Fang Yi turned and walked over to Nangong Lengxue, asking, "Are you okay?"

Nangong Lengxue’s face was slightly flushed; she had recovered from her initial panic, and her expression suddenly turned strange, even fearful.

"You, you, you..."

"Is there a ghost behind me?" Fang Yi countered.

Nangong Lengxue said nothing and stepped forward, reaching out her hand.

Strange, what’s this woman’s deal? Thinks I’m handsome or something?

But in the next moment, Nangong Lengxue grabbed a layer of "skin" on Fang Yi’s face and tore it off with force!

Damn, I’ve been exposed, Fang Yi’s heart skipped a beat, then he saw the incredulous look on Nangong Lengxue’s face.

"Your face..."

"What about my face? Just wearing a whitening facial mask, what’s so weird about that?" Fang Yi, with a thick skin, showed no embarrassment as he tried to stick the silicone mask back on.

"Fang Xiaotian!" Nangong Lengxue yelled sharply.

"Uh... What’s up? Don’t yell at me, or I might pound your chest," Fang Yi threatened.

"No, you’re not Fang Xiaotian, you shouldn’t be called Fang Xiaotian!" Nangong Lengxue regained her cold and strong demeanor, coldly saying, "You’re wearing a silicone mask. Who are you really, and what kind of shameful secrets are you hiding?"

Nangong Lengxue really felt an urge to spit blood; she had been foolish and clueless, not noticing anything, which brought her a sense of humiliation.

But that wasn’t what humiliated her the most. What truly shamed Nangong Lengxue was that she’d actually had a physical relationship with this jerk, and it had happened without knowing his true identity.

How could Nangong Lengxue not feel like spitting blood? Even if she wanted to be unfaithful, she should at least figure out who the other person was!

But still, still...

All sorts of thoughts filled Nangong Lengxue’s heart, leaving her bewildered.

"Do you really want to know who I am?" A smile crept over the corners of Fang Yi’s mouth.

"Yes!" Nangong Lengxue was very determined; she didn’t want to be involved with someone whose identity she didn’t know.

"Well, I’m going to say it, but don’t be surprised."

"Tell me."

"Fang Yi."

"Fang Yi?" Nangong Lengxue pondered the name, then suddenly, she remembered it.

Her nephew had once complained to her about this person, saying that they had significant grievances and wanted Nangong Lengxue’s help to deal with him, but at that time, she hadn’t taken him seriously.

But still, this person wasn’t only involved in a conflict with her nephew; he was also following Zhao Guosheng...

There were too many questions, and Nangong Lengxue decided to thoroughly investigate him when she got back.

"See, now that you know who I am, are you so surprised you can’t speak?" Fang Yi said, watching Nangong Lengxue’s expression, wondering how she would respond.

"Do you have a grudge with Nangong Feiyu?" Nangong Lengxue questioned sharply.

"Yes."

"You... Why are you infiltrating around Zhao Guosheng, what is your purpose?" Nangong Lengxue asked.

"Whatever your purpose is, that’s my purpose," Fang Yi said with a smile.

Nangong Lengxue’s face darkened: "You’re here for Ma Yong, too? How come you’re opposing Fang Jupeng?" But she was oblivious to her own slip of the tongue.

Fang Yi smiled faintly and said, "Why I’m opposing Fang Jupeng, you’ll find out in time. But I can tell you one thing for sure: Ma Yong is the man I’m looking for. You can’t snatch him away from me, especially since..."

"What?"

"Director Nangong." Fang Yi suddenly drew close to Nangong Lengxue, and in a silent move, wrapped his arm around her slender waist, whispering, "Especially since you’re my woman; there’s no reason not to help your man, right?"
