Chapter 558: Chapter 601, It’s His Brother!

There’s no reason I shouldn’t help your man, right?

"Your man," Nangong Lengxue caught the emphasis in those words. Her heart trembled slightly, and then, as if thinking of something, her beautiful eyes widened as she scolded, "Don’t spout nonsense, you are not my man!"

Fang Yi gave a strange smile and said, "Oh, is that so? Then what you mean to say is, earlier, we had a relationship."

Nangong Lengxue’s gaze shifted, at a loss for words.

Nangong Lengxue wasn’t a person who made unfounded troubles or was unreasonable. She was very clear about the reasons why she had a relationship with him. In fact, if it really came down to it, it was her own doing.

Nangong Lengxue felt a sense of powerlessness. Facing Fang Yi, the dominance she had in front of her subordinates was gone without a trace. She glared at Fang Yi fiercely, trying to gain the upper hand, but she didn’t realize that her intense stare, in Fang Yi’s eyes, was filled with a charming allure.

What added to Nangong Lengxue’s pressure was that Fang Yi even chuckled, a chuckle that made her feel extremely guilty.

"I... I’m a married woman," Nangong Lengxue attempted to defend herself.

"I’m also a married man," Fang Yi said, seeing her trying to speak again, and quickly added, "Alright, alright, I know you’re a paragon of virtue. No need to defend yourself."

Nangong Lengxue lowered her refined brows, asking, "Then, then... how will you face our relationship?"

Fang Yi’s lips curled into a wicked smile, "My embrace is always open for you.

My embrace is always open for you.

The implication of those words was that as long as Nangong Lengxue was willing, Fang Yi didn’t care.

Nangong Lengxue remained silent. Truth be told, her heart was somewhat shaken.

As to why she was shaken, she could guess at the reason herself.

But to take that step, there was a significant obstacle, and that was her husband at home.

At this thought, Nangong Lengxue’s expression became slightly pained.

But Fang Yi was unaware of her inner thoughts. Just then, the sound of car horns came from a distance. Fang Yi quickly judged the direction and figured it must be Da Gang calling for reinforcements.

However, Fang Yi had one more thing to take care of. He turned and left the area, soon finding Earth Snake in the camp filled with the stench of blood.

"Earth Snake, you didn’t try to run while I was here, which is smart of you," Fang Yi said.

"Just wondering, what would have happened if I had run?"

"Nothing serious would have happened, at most you’d spend your life being endlessly pursued and never finding peace," said Fang Yi nonchalantly.

These words came effortlessly from Fang Yi’s mouth, but they chilled Earth Snake to the bone.

Being hunted for life was a fate worse than death. Who would want a life of constantly being on the run? Moreover, the terms Fang Yi had offered earlier were very tempting.

Earth Snake made up his mind, knelt on one knee, and declared, "I, Earth Snake, swear once again that from today onward, I will follow only you."

Fang Yi wasn’t too surprised, as he had anticipated this outcome. Anyone who wasn’t a fool would choose to become his follower, and the reason Fang Yi wanted Earth Snake to follow him was very simple.

Earth Snake was familiar with these waters, and the sea route from Moon City to Lank City would be better with someone who knew the way. The biggest issue facing Fang Yi’s gold mine was finding a market, and that market was the sea route from Moon City to Lank City.

Earth Snake had reigned supreme over these seas for over a decade. Having him would resolve this issue, which was the main reason Fang Yi "recruited" Earth Snake.

Fang Yi looked into the distance, where there was already some commotion. He said, "You lead your men away first. Come to this place to find me after a few days." Fang Yi gave him his home address, telling him to come find him in three days.

Fang Yi wasn’t worried that Earth Snake would run because Fang Yi had said before that even if Earth Snake fled to the ends of the earth, it would be pointless. He wasn’t joking; he really could make it happen.

Not long after Earth Snake left, Fang Yi lit up a cigarette and was halfway through it when he saw a team rapidly encircling the area. Soon, Fang Yi was trapped like a turtle in a jar.

"Hands up!" someone shouted.

Hearing this, Fang Yi didn’t resist or show any annoyance. He obediently raised his hands, like he was surrendering.

Then, two men dressed in tactical outfits, holding pistols, rushed over and took out handcuffs to put on Fang Yi.

Just at that moment, a stern shout came through.

"Stop!"

The newcomer was a muscular and powerful man, none other than Da Gang. He spoke with slight panic, "Little Sky is a good guy, you guys..." However, he couldn’t finish his sentence.

That was because Fang Yi’s silicone mask had already been torn off, revealing his true face. Da Gang hadn’t seen it before, and naturally, he was extremely shocked.

A long-haired man stepped forward, spat on the ground, and said coldly, "You are just a Jiaolong Guard. Get lost and don’t interfere with us Blood Dragon Guards making an arrest, or you could face consequences you can’t afford."

This was clearly directed at Da Gang.

Da Gang’s facial muscles twitched, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he swiftly moved in front of Fang Yi, chin held high, and said, "Little Sky is the biggest hero in this incident. Without him, you wouldn’t have been so successful."

The long-haired man, losing his patience, retorted, "Dammit, a Jiaolong Guard dares to shout in front of me? Go back and take your punishment! Now get lost!"

But Da Gang was stubborn and said, "If you want to take Little Sky, you’ll have to step over my dead body!"

"Dammit, do you really think you’re so important?" The long-haired man was even more irritated, took a big step forward, and reached out to grab Da Gang’s collar.

However, at that moment, a hand blocked his.

Fang Yi slapped the long-haired man’s hand away, and although the man was briefly taken aback, he soon revealed a fierce smile.

"Little Sky..." Da Gang turned back.

"Da Gang, step aside. He won’t dare do anything to me," Fang Yi said.

Da Gang clenched his teeth and took a lateral step to move aside.

"He won’t dare do anything to you? With such a big event happening today, once you return to the Dragon Team, you’d better explain yourself," the long-haired man said with a vicious smile in his eyes.

Fang Yi stood motionless, letting the long-haired man make his move.

But just when the long-haired man was about to do something, a voice came from behind, "Qin An, stop!"

Zhao Guosheng walked over with a somewhat stern face.

"Deputy Director Zhao, what do you mean?" Qin An asked in a cold voice.

"I mean nothing. I am in charge of this operation, and everyone must follow my orders," Zhao Guosheng said indifferently. "Why? Are you thinking of defying orders?"

Qin An seemed on the verge of exploding, his eyes reddening, fists clenching suddenly. After a few seconds, a smile appeared on Qin An’s face, sinister in tone, "Deputy Director Zhao, we’ll see!"

With that, Qin An snapped his fingers, signalling his men to disperse and carry on.

Qin An also left but cast a gaze at Fang Yi filled with the kind of hatred one has for their father’s murderer.

Fang Yi slowly walked to Zhao Guosheng’s side and said, "I don’t know this Qin An. It seems like he wanted to tear me apart. Would you say that’s unreasonable?"

"How could it be unreasonable," Zhao Guosheng said. "His name is Qin An, the Deputy Guard Captain of the Blood Dragon Guard. The guy whose limbs you disabled earlier is named Qin Cheng, the Guard Captain of the Blood Dragon Guard, and also his brother."

Fang Yi suddenly understood.
