After dealing with the chaos at the Bo Mansion, Fang Yu returns home to find Qian Wu and his companions waiting. He secures their cooperation and then enters his room, where he finds Ding Hui and two believers preparing a ritual. Zhuge Shi arrives, presenting a Supreme Golden Petal Flower, much to Ding Hui's surprise and eagerness. Fang Yu brokers the exchange, ultimately giving the flower to Ding Hui, who is then astonished as Zhuge Shi reveals dozens more.

With a word from Fang Yu, Ding Hui naturally nodded in agreement, and happily skipped over to the experiment table nearby.

As for the two Believers who were still being bled, they were directly ignored by Ding Hui.

Her entire focus was now on those few Golden Flowers, and nothing else could catch her eye.

People dedicated to research have a certain talent: they are good at concentrating their Spirit and have an extremely high degree of focus, and Ding Hui was no exception.

Once she got busy, she completely ignored the outside world.

At this moment, Fang Yu walked over to Zhuge Shi and sat directly opposite her, meeting her gaze face to face.

"Miss Zhuge, your people are a bit impolite."

Zhuge Shi shrugged her shoulders.

"They acted on their own accord, misunderstanding my intentions, thinking I was imprisoned in the Bo Mansion and came to rescue me."

"Even so, this matter can’t just be left at that, quite a few Bo family members died at their hands."

Zhuge Shi’s lips curled up, she crossed her fingers on the table, resting her chin on them, her playful eyes blinked, and her rosy eyebrows seemed to be speaking in a lively manner.

"Young Master Diao can deal with my subordinates as you wish. Just leave some to relay the message back to the organization."

Zhuge Shi showed no concern for the lives of her subordinates.

This made Fang Yu frown slightly, gaining more understanding about the seemingly harmless Zhuge Shi.

"I’ll let Bo Changquan handle them, but you, having brought such a big trouble, I’d like to know, how do you plan to protect yourself?"

"Of course, I’ll rely on Young Master Diao. Without your unparalleled Divine Skill, I couldn’t survive," Zhuge Shi said with a smile, her eyes curving into crescents and exuding charm.

Unfortunately, Fang Yu wasn’t buying it and responded with a smile as well.

"I can’t even compare to Lord Bo Changquan, so I can’t protect you for too long. I think you’d better make plans sooner rather than later."

"Young Master Diao’s kind thoughts have already satisfied me, I dare not ask for more..."

Zhuge Shi spoke with a hint of bitterness, raising her voice a bit, as if speaking to Ding Hui over there.

Unfortunately, Ding Hui, now in work mode, simply ignored others.

Moreover, not to mention Fang Yu having no interest in Zhuge Shi, even if he had, given his life-and-death bond with Ding Hui, Zhuge Shi wouldn’t be able to sow discord.

"It seems Miss Zhuge has no plans, entirely relying on the organization’s rescue. In that case, next time Miss Zhuge asks the organization’s people to rescue you, please don’t lay hands on the Bo family, one of our own."

Zhuge Shi nodded with a smile.

"Of course, we’re all our own people. I’ll explain the situation to the organization."

Certain things, as the Floating Dragon, she couldn’t possibly disclose too much to an outsider like Fang Yu.

Not to mention some of her arrangements might conflict with Fang Yu’s intentions, making it even more inconvenient to mention.

However, the organization’s message this time made her quite uncomfortable.

That is... the organization has no plans to bring her back to the base.

First, she is too conspicuous now, making it inconvenient to bring her back.

Second, now that her power is sealed by the Seventh Prince, without finding a way to lift the Seal, even if she returned to the organization, she would be of little use.

On the surface, Zhuge Shi still bantered with Fang Yu, but inside her emotions were quite heavy.

To the organization, she was losing value.

Now there is still a possibility of lifting the Seal and a possibility of reverting to Hei Ningyu, so the organization is willing to keep her, soothe her emotions, and agree to her unreasonable demand for the Supreme Golden Petal Flower.

This is all based on the premise that she could still revert to one of the Twelve Floating Dragons at any time!

Otherwise, everything would turn to smoke, and her good days would be over.

Fortunately, Mi Tu is quite interested in her current state of Seal, so even though Zhuge Shi cannot return to the organization, Mi Tu is willing to meet her privately to check her Seal.

Zhuge Shi didn’t expect that in such dire straits, it was actually Mi Tu, with whom she didn’t get along well, who reached out to help her.

However... strange circumstances can harbor ulterior motives, perhaps Mi Tu has other plans? The heart of defense should not be absent.

With a twinkle in her eyes, Zhuge Shi said, "Young Master Diao, do you remember our agreement? Young Master Diao must take responsibility for me~"

Swish—

This remark caught even Ding Hui, who was continuously inspecting the Supreme Golden Petal Flower, to glance over sideways.

This small detail Zhuge Shi naturally noticed, and she couldn’t help but curl her lips slightly, feeling a small sense of victory.

"Rest assured, as long as you’re by my side, I will naturally keep you safe."

With this, Ding Hui directly withdrew her gaze and returned to her work.

Zhuge Shi furrowed her brows, and her gaze towards Fang Yu carried a few more hints of grievance, as she spoke, "But what if I need to go out, wouldn’t Young Master Diao accompany me?"

"Naturally, my arrangements take priority. Miss Zhuge, if you find it dangerous, it’s best to cherish your life."

Hearing this, Zhuge Shi feigned a hurt expression and sighed.

"I didn’t expect Young Master Diao to be so unfeeling, it seems I’ve overthought everything; I thought Young Master Diao was different..."

"Stop, stop!"

Fang Yu quickly stood up.

"Hold it, we have nothing between us, Miss Zhuge, please don’t look as if you’re heartbroken, okay? Besides, I have a wife, so please respect yourself, Miss Zhuge."

Fang Yu realized that sometimes Ding Hui’s status as his wife comes in quite handy.
