Chapter 337 - Exposed
Yang Wei held a dumbfounded expression at Fang Xifeng's punishment.
"How can you be so unreasonable, Fang Xifeng?" Yang Wei asked.
"It was your selfish action that caused this scenario to begin with."
Fang Xifeng snorted coldly.
"Hmph, so what if I'm being unreasonable? As long as you still require my help, then I can be as unreasonable as possible." She shouted.
Her action was no different than any arrogant young master's action that thinks they can do whatever they want.
It was pointless to keep talking to her since it would just be a waste of time and effort.
"Whatever you say, bossy Fang." Yang Wei said as he turned around and began collecting the corpses of the Fiery Werewolves.
Sometime later, Yang Wei finished retrieving all the corpses into his storage ring.
'I'll call this outcome worth it since I didn't have to waste my effort and strength in killing them.' He thought.
"Yang Wei, what are you really hiding?" Fang Xifeng suddenly asked when she saw him finish collecting the corpses.
Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders.
"What do you mean by hiding?" He asked in confusion. "I have been overworking thanks to you for not telling me how to leave this place."
Fang Xifeng smirked evilly as she stuck her tongue out.
"Hmph, who told you to act so arrogant in our first meetings. Either way, I'm going to find out every little secret you have no matter what." She snorted.
Yang Wei twitched his mouth.
'Her intelligence and action just continued to decrease apparently… Sigh, I missed Jing Feng already.' He sighed softly as he walked toward the exit of the cave.
Now that he accomplished one of the assigned tasks thanks to the help of Fang Xifeng, Yang Wei needed to head toward another location.
"Wait a minute, Yang Wei." Fang Xifeng called out as she dashed in front of him.
"Do you want to know a secret?" She then asked with a mysterious smile hanging on her face.
Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.
'What is she up to now?' He wondered silently.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Wei showed a nonchalant expression as he glanced at her.
"What secret?" He asked calmly.
Fang Xifeng curled her lips up as she sent a mental transmission to him.
"Did you know… that old fogey of yours knows the method to leave this place but is purposely hiding it from you?"
Fang Xifeng giggled in amusement when she saw Yang Wei's expression darken completely.
He took a step forward and glared at her.
"Are you speaking the truth?"
Fang Xifeng nodded her head.
"If I'm speaking any nonsense, then may heaven cripple my cultivation forever." She swore an oath, proving her claim was nothing but the truth.
Yang Wei showed a gentle smile as he cupped his fist.
"Thanks for the information…" Yang Wei said as he waved his hand.
"Please excuse me since I now have some urgent business to do."
Afterward, without waiting for Fang Xifeng to reply, Yang Wei directly teleported inside the Pagoda.
"Fan Ping, get your ass over here." Yang Wei shouted at the top of his lungs as he called for Fan Ping's appearance.
However, the atmosphere was completely silent, almost like there wasn't any inhabitant around the Pagoda.
Yang Wei twitched his mouth as he figured Fan Ping must have gone into hiding.
'Hahaha played like a fool again… I really can't wait to get my hand on you.' Yang Wei sneered inwardly as he decided to search every nook and cranny for Fan Ping.
"Fan Ping, come out now, and I might still consider forgiving you." Yang Wei shouted continuously as he searched every room possible inside the Pagoda.
Sometime later, Yang Wei arrived at Zhu Wenqian's room as he knocked on the door slightly.
"Zhu Wenqian, have you seen that old fogey around here?" Yang Wei asked.
A few minutes go by and Yang Wei still hasn't heard a response from him.
"Zhu Wenqian?" Yang Wei asked again, thinking that she couldn't hear him the first time.
However, the result was still the same, and there wasn't any response coming from her.
"Hmm, maybe she's resting and recovering… I doubt Fan Ping could even hide in her room when I consider Zhu Wenqian's eccentric personality." Yang Wei mumbled softly.
Since he didn't wish to disturb Zhu Wenqian's rest, Yang Wei decided to turn around and go somewhere else to find him.
Meanwhile, inside Zhu Wenqian's room, two figures could be seen from afar as they held their breath tightly.
"Phew, that Yang Wei finally left. Imagine getting caught by him…" Fan Ping breathed a sigh of relief as he retrieved a handkerchief and started wiping some of his sweats off.
"Hmph, isn't it all your fault for keeping a secret from Yang Wei?" Zhu Wenqian snorted coldly as she lifted her leg up and kicked Fan Ping in the butt.
"Move your goddamn body away from me and hand over the promised items." She added.
Fan Ping twitched his mouth as he rubbed his butt slightly.
"How dare you kick a man's butt?" Fan Ping gritted his teeth as he glared angrily at Zhu Wenqian.
"So what if I kick it? I dare you to scream louder and alert Yang Wei." Zhu Wenqian grinned wickedly as she dared him.
Fan Ping was baffled as he opened his mouth, but no sound came out of it.
Who was he kidding?
To avoid Yang Wei, he had to accept the exorbitant price from Zhu Wenqian to be able to hide in her room temporarily.
If he was to personally alert Yang Wei himself. Then wouldn't all of his efforts and the items he used to bribe Zhu Wenqian go to waste?
"How much did I say I was going to give you again?" Fan Ping said despite the clear reluctance in his expression.
Zhu Wenqian smiled blissfully as she revealed 10 of her fingers.
"10 Dragon Soul Grass and they must all be mature.." She said in joy and extended her hand out.
