Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1747 - 786: The Room’s Devastation (Part 2)

Some people even started to vomit and retreat, causing a chain reaction.
Actually, the people in the Capital have a strong psychological endurance, but this scene is indeed more stimulating than the usual scenes of slaughter and murder.
Killing only leaves a scar the size of a bowl, but when demons eat people, the scene is indescribable.
"Wait! Look! There’s a pool of black fire on the ground!"
"Absolute... Sect? What does it mean? Is this the work of the Absolute Sect?"
"No! I know the Absolute Sect, it’s a righteous sect that tirelessly eradicates demons and doesn’t allow any evil! How could they do such a thing!"
"I understand now... it was the demons who killed Miss Qianqian, and then the Absolute Sect discovered and killed them! Leaving behind traces!"
"That’s right, there’s been news recently that the Absolute Sect wiped out demons and left a black fire mark. But at that time, it was only a Little Demon, and no one paid attention except for the slight ripple the name of the Absolute Sect caused."
The Capital is a place where all rivers run into the sea.
It’s the busiest town in the Great Xia Royal City.
Every day countless things happen, countless moments play out in this city.
If it’s not class enough, not explosive enough, not controversial enough, these things aren’t even worth spreading!
And previously, when the Absolute Sect eradicated demons and left behind black fire, besides the weight of the name Absolute Sect, it was just the eternally burning black fire that intrigued people.
The former represents the Absolute Sect extending its reach into the Capital, purifying demons even in the Capital.
The latter is the peculiarity of the black fire, which has a certain topic value.
"Absolute Sect? Black flames?"
Fang Yu looked at the clump of black fire, deep in thought.
From the tragic state of the room, it was clear that the dead weren’t just Miss Qianqian, others died here in extremely tragic ways as well.
"Get out of the way!"
While Fang Yu was contemplating, Bo Fu suddenly stood up, pushing through the crowd and heading out.
Fang Yu’s heart stirred, and he immediately followed. Ding Hui and the others were right behind.
Shortly after Fang Yu and the others left, Qian Wu arrived with Zhuge Shi, arriving fashionably late.
"What a lively scene."
Zhuge Shi’s flippant remarks made some people present feel a bit uncomfortable.
But seeing Qian Wu beside Zhuge Shi, they wisely suppressed their emotions.
"Qianqian, so you’ve... Ah! No wonder, I previously felt there was something off about your maid, bringing in two masked men, preventing my duel with Brother Bo. Turns out she was buying time to collude with demons and take Miss Qianqian’s life!"
Men do not shed tears easily.
Yet tears flowed freely from Qian Wu’s eyes, his natural acting reaching its pinnacle, momentarily stunning Zhuge Shi beside him.
Gently wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Qian Wu rushed into the room, cradling a piece of bloody flesh, speaking warmly and tenderly.
"You and I had feelings for each other, yet separated by the demons between us. On this, I, Qian Wu, will never let it rest. I must get to the bottom of this! Seek out the Absolute Sect to understand the ins and outs, and give Miss Qianqian a grand and honorable funeral!"
After his speech, everyone felt that the young master of the Qian family was truly a man of deep emotions and righteousness.
Such a man of sentiment and integrity not only won the competition but also won over many hearts.
"Young Master Qian Wu is deeply affectionate!"
"Young Master Qian Wu is loyal and righteous too!"
"Unfortunately, Miss Qianqian has passed away, otherwise how could she bear to miss such a good match?"
Whether intentional or unintentional, sincere or insincere, through this night, Qian Wu’s reputation greatly improved, and the persona he established through word of mouth formed a highly likable image, providing an extra boost for future developments.
Zhuge Shi may not like this kind of person, but she had to admit that it is this type of person, constantly scheming, who can thrive better in a place like the Capital that eats people up and spits out their bones.
She was also quite curious.
How did her subordinates end up being killed by demons, by the Absolute Sect people?
No wonder... after the task was done, they never returned to report.
Could it be... the Absolute Sect is investigating the organization’s matters?
Although Zhuge Shi just arrived in the Capital, the organization’s people didn’t set foot in the Capital for the first time; they’ve been rooted here for years, just keeping a low profile. Unexpectedly, someone still discovered traces of their presence?
Shooting a glance at a subordinate, someone silently retreated, melting into the crowd and disappearing from sight.
...
Meanwhile, Bo Fu moved quickly, even breaking into a run.
But he still couldn’t shake off the three people trailing him.
Even when he managed to leave his own subordinates behind, these three stuck to him like glue, unable to lose them.
Step!
Suddenly, he came to an abrupt halt.
"You all, show yourselves! Following me all this way, it shouldn’t be a coincidence, right?"
Bo Fu said in a deep voice, and Fang Yu and the other two stepped directly out from behind the wall.
"Young Master Bo, what sharp insight."
Fang Yu said with a smile.
"..."
Bo Fu said nothing, merely frowning while looking at the three, his body slightly tense, ready to escape if necessary, while also assessing their capabilities to evaluate the situation.
Of course, in terms of numbers alone, he was already at a disadvantage, but this was the street in the Capital. In a real fight, the patrol guards would arrive quickly, and based on his status, these three would not escape unscathed.
So, although Bo Fu was somewhat nervous, his expression remained calm.
"What brings you three to follow me all the way?"
Fang Yu chuckled, flicking a small pebble out of his sleeve.
Whoosh!
The pebble grazed past Bo Fu’s cheek!
Yet, Bo Fu showed excitement rather than fear, his expression turning sharply animated.
"It was you! Senior! During the duel with Qian Wu, it was you helping me in secret!"
Fang Yu nodded with a smile.
But then, Bo Fu’s face contorted unpredictably, his expression stalling as he frowned at Fang Yu.
"Since Senior has already given me a hand, why not help me all the way? At that time, Qian Wu was only a step away from defeat!"
Such unpredictable temperament and fickle attitude caused Fang Yu to narrow his eyes slightly, forming a rough judgment of this person’s character.
However, he didn’t rip through the pleasantries, instead patiently explaining.
"I have already helped you a lot. From the moment you fell into a disadvantage against that Believer, I was already assisting you. It’s not that I am unwilling to help to the end, but if I continued, your opponent would die."
"So what? If Qian Wu dies, he dies! What do I have to fear?"
Bo Fu almost blurted out, only to be met by Fang Yu’s half-smiling expression.
His expression froze, realizing that his words were somewhat excessive.
If he had killed Qian Wu through his own skills, it wouldn’t have been a problem. With his status, he could handle it, at most stirring up resentment and fully igniting conflicts with the Qian family.
But if there was someone assisting him behind the scenes, couldn’t they touch Young Master Bo, but could touch those behind him?
Even Bo Fu himself knew that his greatest reliance was not his martial prowess but his identity, status, and the backing family! This was the core reason why people in the Capital feared him!
And the person who lent him a hand now, didn’t have such a background. If someone found out, he might end up in deep trouble.
After all, in the Capital, never think that your martial ability reaches Heaven. There is always someone stronger, someone beyond even the skies!
People without a sense of awe don’t last long in this city.
"I misspoke. May I know, Senior, what brings you along this time?"
Although Fang Yu had just helped him, Bo Fu still remained vigilant against Fang Yu and his group.
Fang Yu didn’t mind Bo Fu’s attitude, instead speaking directly.
"Earlier, you saw the tragic scene in Miss Qianqian’s room, and turned away immediately. Have you any clues?"
Bo Fu gazed steadily into Fang Yu’s eyes upon hearing the question.
"The masked men! Those two Believers whom I and Qian Wu defeated were in cahoots with that damned maid! The maid died, but those two masked men also escaped! Catch them, and I can uncover the mystery of Qianqian’s death, and find out who’s behind them! Who exactly is ruining my plans! Had I not exhausted myself first fighting the masked men, the result of my duel with Qian Wu might have been different!"
