The night was pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

In the empty plaza outside the Qingyun Sect's outer gate, a whooshing sound filled the air, as if something had passed by.

Gu Changqing dodged left and right, and soon arrived at the pavilion in front of the outer gate manager.

With his strength greatly increased, his movement techniques also became incredibly swift. Even the "Azure Cloud Steps" he had just learned were enough to be executed with the speed of the wind and the shadow of a shadow.

A moment later, Gu Changqing stopped at the top of the pavilion, his eyes flashing with cold light.

This is no other place than Mr. Fang's residence.

Because he had activated the system's ability to conceal secrets to the maximum, he had no aura whatsoever and did not need to be detected.

The reason they infiltrated this place was to kill Manager Fang!

Manager Fang lived on the second floor, where there was a spacious single room.

Gu Changqing quietly walked up to the second floor and soon arrived at the door of the private room.

But suddenly, he stopped and stood outside the door, motionless.

I sensed that there were many people in the room besides Manager Fang, and at that moment, I could hear whispers of secret plotting coming from inside.

"Damn it, all my cultivation is ruined, and I can never recover it in this lifetime. This is much worse than being crippled for life. I hate it!" Manager Fang roared in a low voice from his wheelchair.

Being disabled for life is bad enough, but if he had cultivation, it wouldn't be so bad. But now he has lost his cultivation. What will he do in the future?

More importantly, it was still his fault, and he suffered a complete setback!

"Mr. Fang, there's no need to be upset. We've already sent people to hunt down that kid. With your nephew involved, this matter will surely be a success. Just wait for good news," a young man sitting in the corner of the room said with a smile.

“That’s right. Fang Song is among the top twenty in the outer sect, and he’ll be promoted to the top ten soon. Gu Changqing only has the cultivation of the Acquired Realm, so he’s no match for him. Once Fang Song succeeds, won’t you feel much better?” another young man laughed.

Judging from his expression, this person seemed certain that Fang Song would succeed.

"Hmph, that's true, but I'm already in this state. Even if that kid dies, my life is ruined. I was hoping to find some opportunity to heal my leg before I die, but now, I have nothing left!" Manager Fang sighed, his face pale.

"Manager Fang, why belittle yourself like this? There are countless miraculous medicines in the world. Perhaps one day you will find an opportunity to restore your cultivation. When you start cultivating again, you won't be any worse off than you are now," someone said, having thought of something.

Manager Fang sighed and said, "Don't try to comfort me. It's true that there are many miraculous pills in the world, but how could they possibly be for a useless person like me? Those pills are probably already in the hands of some powerful people, just in case. Someone like me has no hope."

"Hmph, it's all Gu Changqing's fault. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have ended up like this!" the person who had just offered words of comfort said grimly.

"Forget about that, right now we're just waiting for my nephew to come back. But judging by the time, it's already dark, why isn't he back yet?" Manager Fang glanced out the window and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

For some reason, an ominous premonition arose in his heart.

"Maybe something went wrong along the way, but it doesn't matter. Surely Fang Song can succeed? His cultivation is much higher than Gu Changqing's. If he can't succeed, he might as well just kill himself by hitting a wall." Someone sneered.

"Sigh, let's wait a little longer. Maybe that guy surnamed Gu is cunning and has called some helpers over. But no matter how much he resists, it's all in vain. The difference in cultivation level is obvious. There's a reason why my nephew was able to enter the top twenty of the outer sect. He should be back soon." Manager Fang didn't believe that Fang Song couldn't succeed.

As Gu Changqing listened, he quickly realized that this group of people were plotting to kill him!

And judging from their voices, these people are all very familiar.

After a moment's thought, Gu Changqing immediately realized that these were the people who had a good relationship with General Manager Fang, and could be considered his faction.

Many high-ranking members of the sect oppose the formation of factions within the sect, as this is detrimental to the sect's stability. However, some useless individuals always take pride in forming cliques.

"Hmph, what I hate most in my life is when someone tries to kill me behind my back, that's courting death!" Gu Changqing's eyes flashed with killing intent.

If these people knew that Fang Song had already died at his hands, wouldn't they be shocked and their faces would twitch with disbelief!

Just then, Gu Changqing suddenly heard another shocking piece of news!
