Chapter 1001: Chapter 999: Gospel (16) Chapter 1001: Chapter 999: Gospel (16) Until they returned to their respective rooms, no obstacles had appeared, and Fu Qian and Ji Liushuang had no further interaction.

This night was destined to be sleepless for some.

Of course, Fu Qian slept quite well.

Although for him, sleep was no longer a state of complete loss of perception of his surroundings, the comfort he felt was undiminished.

With the sun starting to rise, as Fu Qian was savoring the aftertaste of this comfort, the awaited reaction finally arrived.

With a knock, Ji Liushuang’s slightly tired face appeared, stating that Old Master Ji Xun requested his presence.

“Okay.”

Fu Qian had no objections.

As a neighbor, he naturally knew that this man hadn’t slept at all last night, but despite that, he still looked rather well.

The Ji Family, being a top-notch wealthy clan, had a considerable reserve.

…

“We have found traces of the suspected assailant.”

In the quaint and elegant quiet room, Ji Xun looked at the two invited guests, Fu Qian, and introduced the progress seriously.

“The adversary is very cunning, we are just keeping an eye on him without alarming him.”

While saying this, he even glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Fu Qian.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t see anything.

When he left the house, Fu Qian had already put his mask back on, leaving only a shiny bald head for others to wonder about.

The grasp of measure is very important, and moderation is essential.

As a grandmaster, even when revealing one’s identity, it is about maintaining composure.

“Where?”

Ji Liushuang’s expression turned stern as she asked directly.

“Not too far from where you were attacked, obviously that guy is quite bold.”

Helplessly withdrawing his gaze, Ji Xun nodded.

Such is the power of imagination.

Seeing Old Master Ji quickly respond without even blinking, Fu Qian couldn’t help but admire.

With the cooperation of multiple parties, the thug who committed the crime in broad daylight seemed all too real.

“What are we waiting for then!”

Ji Liushuang was already standing up, her tone brimming with murderous intent.

“You’re going too?”

Ji Xun looked at her hand holding the sword and frowned slightly.

“I won’t be recklessly showing off, I’m already much better.”

Ji Liushuang didn’t hesitate at all.

“I am very much looking forward to this meeting.”

“Okay, what about Professor Andiel?”

Ji Xun didn’t try to persuade further but instead sought Fu Qian’s opinion.

Hehe…

Faced with the still unchanged address, Fu Qian let out a strange laugh.

“Are you worried I might hit too hard?”

“How could that be?”

Seemingly not expecting Fu Qian to agree so readily, even showing concern about the extent of force, Ji Xun was slightly taken aback and quickly expressed his stance.

“Professor Andiel needn’t have any reservations… If anyone dares to do such a thing to the Ji Family, even the Night Watchman can’t protect him!”

The last sentence had a bit of a grinding teeth tone.

…

After confirming the action, the lineup of the Motion Restriction Team of the Ji Family was nothing short of luxurious.

Besides Ji Xun and Ji Tong, the two Demigods, half of the people in the room had been deployed last night.

Because of this, as they gradually encircled the target location, Fu Qian, a guest, and the injured Liushuang were given special care and assigned to a separate group to play a raiding role.

Ji Xun had specifically instructed them, requesting Fu Qian to take good care of Liushuang and prevent her from acting impulsively, to which the latter readily agreed.

“It seems we are the ones under more suspicion!”

After the room was left to the two of them, Fu Qian, while removing his mask to reveal an aged face, lamented.

“It’s not surprising. Besides our obviously more conspicuous presence, from a tendency perspective, they probably wouldn’t want the Rebirth Club standing behind me either.”

Liushuang sighed softly, trying hard to divert her attention from the paper cup in Fu Qian’s hand.

This was breakfast that he had just bought from a roadside vendor.

Removing the mask just for a drink of soy milk?

Serious about the manhunt at all!

“Do you want one too?”

However, Fu Qian misunderstood, reaching out and handing her another cup.

“Old Master Ji Xun just mentioned that we should try to act more routinely so as not to scare anyone.”

But this is too routine!

Liushuang really wanted to refuse, but somehow, Fu Qian’s slightly content demeanor had an inexplicably persuasive power. Suddenly and remarkably, the hunger that had not bothered her all night became conspicuous.

“Sweet or salty?”

Still, she confirmed with a question the next moment.

“Plain.”

“Thank you!”

Finally, Liushuang reached out to take it and carefully opened it to take a sip.

Though the position felt somewhat awkward, being the Ji Family’s daughter, she wasn’t very familiar with such commoner’s food.

Yet, in that moment, the faint aroma seemed to soothe her mood considerably.

“Even though they set this location to make it look natural, they probably wouldn’t want to alarm the Night Watchman.”

“So after our target runs out, there’s a high likelihood they’ll clash with us briefly before fleeing elsewhere.”

While punctually eating her breakfast, Liushuang focused her attention on a building not far away with a red spire.

As for the “suspect” choosing this escape route, she and Fu Qian had absolutely no doubt.

They surely had to meet up with the real Rebirth Club, why else would they arrange all these?

“Of course, the target will definitely leave clues, then it’ll be up to you to chase after them directly to speed up the pace of the whole situation,”
“As for me, I will make a full effort when the person escapes and then stay here under the pretext of aggravating my injury.”

Liushuang was silently contemplating the details and proposing her arrangements.

“I really don’t like dawdling, but later you might not need to make a move.”

Fu Qian had finished his soy milk by then and had put his mask back on.

“A Saintess of the great Rebirth Club shouldn’t personally do such rough work,”
“Besides, I have a better way to speed things up–kill the impostor right here.”

“…If we really do that, it will create a huge commotion, and it’s very likely that the Night Watchman will be drawn here!”

Liushuang was shocked by his audacity, not expecting him to plan on having a major confrontation right there.

“It could get really messy!”

“That’s the organizer’s responsibility then.”

Fu Qian chuckled darkly, seemingly pleased with the chaotic scenario Liushuang described.

“How could the Rebirth Club be manipulated by others!”

Acting as if it’s real…
Stunned by his imposing statement, Liushuang found herself momentarily lost for words.

After briefly pondering, realizing she couldn’t sway him, she didn’t waste effort on futile persuasion but instead narrowed her eyes, seriously thinking about how to maintain the posture of a Saintess.

But just a few seconds later, her body jolted.

In her field of view, a figure leisurely walked out of the target building.
