Fang Yu battled demonic entities and encountered Shan Shunmei, who revealed herself to be a powerful demon. Just as Fang Yu was about to be overwhelmed, an old acquaintance, Master Quan Heng, unexpectedly appeared. Quan Heng displayed immense power, scaring off the demons and revealing himself to be a Believer. Fang Yu then instructed Quan Heng to pursue some of the demons while he chased after Shan Shunmei, who was fleeing in terror.

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for defeating the [Seal-Breaking Demon], acquiring 302 experience points.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for defeating the [Mysterious Bone Demon], acquiring 1380 experience points.]

[System Prompt: Experience points have surpassed 100, resulting in a total of 16 attribute points.]

Casting a glance at the system logs, Fang Yu tossed aside Shan Shunmei's severed head and quickly returned. His pursuit in this area had concluded successfully, yet he remained uncertain about the situation with Monk Quan Heng. He held out hope that the few minor demons hadn't managed to escape the alley and create a significant disturbance. However, upon further reflection, Fang Yu suspected he might be overthinking things. After all, Quan Heng was involved. Back when his own skills were still rudimentary, he had believed his strength was on par with Monk Quan Heng's. As his own power grew, Fang Yu gradually came to understand that disparities existed even among Thousand Blood Warriors. The Believer's Thousand Blood state merely represented the current condition of the physical body, not the ultimate limit of one's strength. This was evident in Qingling Taoist's ability to suppress Sunset City with a seemingly ordinary Thousand Blood Bar. Looking back, Fang Yu found it challenging to accurately gauge Monk Quan Heng's true strength. Yet, there was no question that the recent blow, which had repelled the Four Demons, undeniably demonstrated a power exceeding that of four Thousand Blood Martial Artists. Still, Fang Yu could not ascertain the full extent of that potential. As Fang Yu was lost in thought, he observed the Long Mosquito Demon and the Heart Mirror Demon kneeling ahead, trembling and refraining from making any sound. [Heart Mirror Demon: 8941/21232.] [Long Mosquito Demon: 6152/30852.] The Long Mosquito Demon appeared significantly worse for wear, as if it had been beaten into submission and captured alive. The Heart Mirror Demon, on the other hand, seemed relatively unharmed, presenting a docile demeanor. The obedient behavior of these two demons was, frankly, a sight rarely witnessed by ordinary individuals. Of course, when Fang Yu had operated as an inside agent among demons, he encountered such compliant demonic comrades daily. "Amitabha, Inspector Diao, I have brought them here," Monk Quan Heng stated. He was not hovering in the air but stood firmly on the ground, hands clasped in a gesture of respect as he smiled at Fang Yu. "Master Quan Heng, please wait a moment," Fang Yu replied, not slowing his pace as he moved past Monk Quan Heng. In the instant the Long Mosquito Demon and Heart Mirror Demon displayed expressions of sheer terror, streaks of sword light descended upon them. If Quan Heng's intervention had offered these two demons a glimmer of hope for survival, Fang Yu's subsequent actions signified absolute finality. His unreserved attack was aimed solely at dispatching them, delivering an inescapable, fatal blow. Their already injured forms offered no resistance, succumbing instantly to the surprise assault. The two demon corpses lay still upon the ground, and system notifications promptly followed. [Heart Mirror Demon: 0/21232.] [Long Mosquito Demon: 0/30852.] [System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for defeating the [Heart Mirror Demon], acquiring 156 experience points.] [System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for defeating the [Long Mosquito Demon], acquiring 245 experience points.] [System Prompt: Experience points have surpassed 100, resulting in a total of 4 attribute points.] It was indeed a matter of collecting heads, not a solo hunt, hence the slightly reduced experience yield. Fang Yu felt a twinge of regret, but a turn towards Monk Quan Heng, who was waiting silently, lifted his spirits considerably. "Master Quan Heng, it has been a while!" Despite the significant passage of time since their last meeting, their conversation resumed with a comfortable ease, as if they were long-lost friends who had not experienced any estrangement. Master Quan Heng responded with a smile, a gentle curve of his lips, and inquired, "Why has Inspector Diao come to Thunder City? I heard from Master Ye that Inspector Diao entered the city with her. It has been several days; why have you not yet reported to the Foolish Underworld?" "Master Ye?" Fang Yu was taken aback, momentarily frozen in place. "Who?" "Ye Danshan, the Night Female Benefactor." Fang Yu suddenly recalled. It was her, the woman from the Night Sect he had encountered at the entrance. He was surprised that this reunion with Monk Quan Heng was indirectly facilitated by her. Regarding his failure to report to the Foolish Underworld, Fang Yu simply offered a light chuckle. "I have not yet reported. Being new to this area, I am somewhat concerned about the reliability of the Foolish Underworld in Thunder City." Monk Quan Heng, possessing a kind heart, was not gullible or slow-witted. He immediately grasped Fang Yu's underlying intentions and did not press the matter further. However, Fang Yu's explanation also resolved a perplexity that Monk Quan Heng had been experiencing. When Quan Heng had departed from An Mansion to seek individuals, the Foolish Underworld was the first place he had visited. To his surprise, no such person could be found there. Given the limited number of recent recruits to the Foolish Underworld, verification had been straightforward. Leveraging the An Family's considerable reputation, Master Quan Heng had obtained certain privileges, though unfortunately, they proved to be of little assistance in this instance.Emerging from the Foolish Underworld and stumbling upon a demonic aura, he unexpectedly encountered the very individual he sought. Neither spoke of the night the Tianyuan Town was annihilated. That night, for the populace of Tianyuan Town, it was a night of despair and shock, nearly impossible to truly comprehend. At the very least, Quan Heng had witnessed far too many innocent souls perish before his eyes, utterly powerless to intervene. Fang Yu, too, felt a sense of trepidation, hesitant to provoke Monk Quan Heng, as he remained ignorant of Quan Heng's exact experiences that fateful night. Following a brief, shared silence, Fang Yu broke the quiet. "Does Master Quan Heng currently have a place to reside? Perhaps you would consider staying with me for a few days. I have a friend who resides with me, and I believe she would be delighted to make your acquaintance."
