Chapter 897: Chapter 895: Rotten Flesh (16) Chapter 897: Chapter 895: Rotten Flesh (16) Decisive!
Fu Qian observed from the shadows as Jiang En took only a few seconds to make his decision about whether to stay or leave, and gave an approving nod.
He didn’t critique the pros and cons of the choice, but the sheer decisiveness alone fit the style of a Child of Destiny.
The glass was, of course, broken by Fu Qian. He had briefly left the Blood Conquest state and used the act to help suppress some of Brother Jiang En’s desires.
After all, from any angle, it was clear he was no longer suitable to continue.
And with the recent commotion, Jiang En obviously didn’t want to gamble that no one would come to check, so he decisively chose to flee.
At this moment, the room was in complete disarray.
Besides the shattered glass on the floor, there were blood splatters everywhere.
Contrastingly, the stark naked, drunken woman in bed was sleeping peacefully, utterly oblivious to the recent events.
Jiang En’s undressing of her had somewhat alleviated her drunken misery.
But whatever the case, tonight’s scenario was undoubtedly much more intense than usual.
Come morning, she would likely add pressure to the Night Watchman.
Amidst his reflections, Fu Qian didn’t deactivate his Stealth State and silently left the room.
…
After landing, Fu Qian did not hurry away. Instead, he first went to a corner and then deactivated Blood Conquest.
Brother Jiang En sure had clout; the energy expended in the operation just now was more than that of killing a Demigod. As for now–
Fu Qian straightened himself, came out of the corner, and walked to the window to take a look around. The next moment, he leaped up and jumped back into the room the same way he came.
Even in the dim light, the mask on his face was still menacing and highly recognizable.
And this action, beyond a doubt, was seen by someone outside the window.
“Grand Fate Ming Emperor!”
In a dark corner, a blood-covered Jiang En spoke with clenched teeth.
Indeed, after escaping, he did not flee immediately but bravely hid nearby.
It was clear that on one hand, the disruption of his action infuriated him, and on the other, he was unwilling to be kept in the dark.
So even wounded and at the risk of being discovered, he stayed to see if someone was messing with him and who exactly it was.
And it seemed like this risk had yielded some valuable information.
…
This guy, he’s been tracking me all along?
Peering through gaps in the curtains, Jiang En could see Fu Qian looking around the room.
Didn’t that mean that everything he had just done was possibly known to him?
Along with the anger rose an uncontrollable fear in Jiang En’s heart.
If that were true, it meant that the slightest mistake could lead to his utter disgrace and even make him a prisoner under the Night Watchman.
His Ranking was not that much higher than his own; why hadn’t he noticed at all? How did he do it?
Fear and confusion tortured Jiang En’s nerves for a moment.
Of course, he wasn’t about to bury his head in the sand like an ostrich, gambling on the chance that the other party had only just arrived.
Based on the previous encounter, this guy indeed had numerous tricks up his sleeve, and it wasn’t impossible for him to follow Fu Qian without being detected.
So the question now was, how should he handle the subsequent situation?
Considering the consequences if things were to be exposed, Jiang En could no longer help but start to think about directly rushing forward, slaughtering this guy on the spot, and then pinning everything on him to gamble for a chance at survival.
Just as Jiang En was crazily convincing himself to increase the success rate of this method, the next move of the opponent left him stunned.
He saw the Grand Fate Ming Emperor glance around, and in just a few seconds, his right hand transformed into a fierce and sharp claw.
Before Jiang En could react, the other party had already swung his arm repeatedly, leaving claw marks on the walls and the ground.
What on earth is this guy trying to do–
Shocked, Jiang En suddenly realized the meaning behind these actions.
Deliberately leaving such marks… could this guy be trying to pin the blame on Tyler?
Especially since the latter was already under suspicion, if the Night Watchman saw the scene inside the hotel, Tyler would likely be even less able to defend himself.
So was this an illusion? Was he even helping to cover for him?
Amid his amazement, Jiang En felt as though he saw a glimmer of hope.
But why would he do this, what reason did this guy have–wait a second–it seemed this guy was particularly keen on a false reputation; otherwise, he wouldn’t have specifically targeted Tyler and himself.
He might be confident in defeating Jiang En, but Tyler was now Middle Tier; he had encountered him once before and might have realized he was not assured of victory…
In the cover of night, Jiang En’s eyes lit up, feeling like everything suddenly made sense.
Indeed, it’s the trees that stand out in the forest that get blown down by the wind.
To see this guy as a mere madman was to underestimate him greatly.
His earlier action was a clear case of killing two birds with one stone, not only likely dooming Tyler, but also ensuring that he himself would always have something on him.
Regardless, he could be somewhat more at ease about the situation here.
Thinking this, Jiang En let out a long sigh.
Without continuing to watch, he cautiously moved his body and silently distanced himself from this place of trouble.
…
Quite a quick reaction, no wonder the Jiang Family hold him in high regard.
If his path to transcendence hadn’t been so difficult, he might truly have become the pillar of his clan’s revival.
Knowing clearly that Jiang En had already left and that the room was also nearly tidied up, and due to the noise just now, people coming to investigate would soon reach the room, Fu Qian also jumped out of the window once again.
The reason for his earlier actions was simple: to give Jiang En a rationale for careful planning.
There was still plenty of time; there was no need to drive him into a corner now.
What Jiang En had shown just now was quite interesting.
To Fu Qian, it felt almost akin to the “Ecstasy” he had previously encountered.
Of course, when compared to the great invention of Professor Ian from the Academy, it was still far behind in terms of ranking.

And it seemed that Jiang En was taking the completely opposite approach, not nourishing but actively trying to suppress this Ecstasy.
Consequently, this kind of behavior seemed instead to have become an alternative ritual, one that might succeed, yet also one that the warehouse wanted to disrupt.
Additionally, just now when he intervened to stop Jiang En’s efforts, the task was not completed, indicating that this advancement ritual was probably connected to the previous events, and interrupting it once or twice wouldn’t have much effect.
So, the simplest way to complete the task would seem to be to just kill the person.
In summary, while a bit odd, the ritual itself didn’t seem too complicated.
