But it seems very serious.
Even the incident when Yan Fuhai spat blood shortly after leaving following the autumn hunt, Wei Hongfang brought it up.
After all, since they had decided to discuss it, the more detailed, the better. The more Fu Zhengqing knew, the better he could devise a proper strategy.
After a while.
Wei Hongfang finally told Fu Zhengqing everything he knew.
"I see, it looks like it must be the aftereffects of forcibly breaking through to the Land Immortal realm!"
Not hard to understand.
If achieving the Land Immortal realm were that easy, the Fourteen States of the World wouldn’t have such few Land Immortals, and those who are must be secluded, focused solely on cultivation.
Yan Fuhai didn’t achieve the Land Immortal realm through proper cultivation.
Fu Zhengqing knew that Yan Fuhai had obtained a treasure, and it was with the power of this treasure that he managed to break through to the Land Immortal realm.
This shortcut cultivation method was bound to exact a great price, so such outcomes aren’t surprising at all.
"No wonder!"
With this analysis.
Coupling it with Fu Zhengqing’s previous observations, many past issues seemed to have reasonable explanations.
After understanding these, Fu Zhengqing suddenly chuckled softly.
It seems, indeed, there’s a real chance to eliminate Yan Fuhai now.
"When do you plan to act?"
Given that they were now in the same boat, Wei Hongfang naturally wanted to clarify Fu Zhengqing’s specific plans.
Even if there were issues, that’s still a Land Immortal.
Rushing headlong without a plan was no different from courting death, was it?
"No rush, there are still some matters that need careful preparation!"
Seeing the somewhat anxious look on Wei Hongfang, Fu Zhengqing casually waved his hand, signaling Wei Hongfang to stay calm.
Being a cautious man by nature.
Fu Zhengqing naturally wanted to ensure everything was foolproof before actually taking action.
Wei Hongfang also understood that this kind of matter shouldn’t be rushed, but still.
"But you’d better hurry, after all, who knows when Yan Fuhai’s injuries might recover. It would be laughable if you’re ready but Yan Fuhai has already recovered!"
Wei Hongfang reminded Fu Zhengqing.
Even though they confirmed Yan Fuhai truly had problems with his body at present.
They didn’t know when these issues could recover.
If Yan Fuhai recovered by the time Fu Zhengqing was ready, it would indeed be ridiculous.
"There’s no need for you to remind me of such things!"
Fu Zhengqing glanced at Wei Hongfang and said flatly.
However.
It did remind Fu Zhengqing of the rarity of such an opportunity.
If they really missed it.
Unless I left Great Qian, otherwise my cultivation would forever remain at an impasse, even if I switched to being a mage, but if discovered one day.
Given Yan Fuhai’s personality.
He’d probably crush me outright.
"You may leave now. I’ll give it some good thought, and within a month, we’ll take action!"
Not knowing Ye Liuyun’s specific plans.
Upon hearing that action would be taken within a month, Wei Hongfang couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Either way, this was at least a guarantee.
A month’s wait was bearable for him.
During this month, hiding within Fu Zhengqing’s mansion wouldn’t bring much worry.
"Remember the conditions you agreed to!"
Wei Hongfang naturally couldn’t place one hundred percent trust in Fu Zhengqing, but at the moment, he had no other choice but to rely on him.
After saying this.
Wei Hongfang turned to leave.
"There will be a time for you to act, just don’t freeze when the time comes!"
Seeing Wei Hongfang’s actions.
Fu Zhengqing merely remarked faintly.
"That’s none of your concern!"
Fu Zhengqing’s mansion was large, accommodating a person was not an issue.
Watching Wei Hongfang’s disappearing figure, Fu Zhengqing didn’t say more.
He just took a moment, then looked away.
"That guy is quite clever!"
Thinking of Ye Liuyun, Fu Zhengqing sighed slightly in admiration, surprised that what he had said turned out to be true—Yan Fuhai indeed had physical issues.
This insight wasn’t something Fu Zhengqing possessed.
Currently, his cooperation involved only Ye Liuyun and the recently departed Wei Hongfang.
Two Grandmasters and a Grandmaster seemed a formidable lineup, yet still seemed insufficient against Yan Fuhai.
Especially since.
Fu Zhengqing couldn’t confirm whether Ye Liuyun would truly act then.
Since achieving the Grandmaster level, Fu Zhengqing rarely encountered people who confounded him, yet Ye Liuyun was one such exception. Sometimes Fu Zhengqing truly couldn’t decipher the young man’s thoughts.
He seemed reckless and domineering, yet incredibly astute, always handling matters perfectly without flaw.
Even now.
Ye Liuyun promised to assist in dealing with Yan Fuhai.
Yet Fu Zhengqing still wasn’t confident that Ye Liuyun would truly lend a hand—likely he’d merely go through the motions, watching from the sidelines as others struggled.
"Yue Xiu!"
After pondering for a moment.
Fu Zhengqing softly murmured Yue Xiu’s name.
Fu Zhengqing had long known about matters between Yue Xiu and Yan Fuhai; Yue Xiu’s youngest son, his last bloodline, was eliminated by someone sent by Yan Fuhai.
