Monarch Night

Chapter 1412: Chapter 80: Let’s Go Drink at the Wedding Feast (Double-Length Chapter) (Part 3)

Fang Che casually remarked.

In a single sentence, it struck like lightning into Xue Wanren’s mind.

Xue Wanren immediately froze.

"And you two."

Fang Che looked at Feng Xiangdong and Yu Zhongge: "You’re just the same, always following the family-planned routes, step by step moving forward, never thinking of laying a foundation for yourselves starting now? What is the supreme Absolute Skill in the family? Which truly attracts you? Can’t you start laying a foundation and preparing from now?"

Feng Xiangdong and Yu Zhongge also furrowed their brows in deep thought.

"You all are just the same, from Third Level Family to Fourth Level Family, you all have top-tier Absolute Skills, yet haven’t thought about digging them out? Preparing in advance? Just spending time daily on existing things?"

Fang Che said: "You need to be mindful. I don’t have a place to swap for things, otherwise, I’d have gone already. A crying child gets fed... go cry before the family!"

"Just say you got beaten up outside by me! Making the family lose face!"

The brothers had a sudden realization.

"Boss’s words make sense!"

Fang Che dusted off his pants and stood up: "Let’s go catch Yin Shen Palace!"

Yu Zhongge let out a wry smile: "Since arriving here, we haven’t seen Yin Shen Palace..."

"Search for it then."

Fang Che said: "Could Yin Shen Palace be waiting right beside you to be caught? Besides, among just the few of us, meeting this Yixin Sect Leader might be beyond our abilities... Let’s go first."

"Alright."

Feng Xiangdong felt relieved since Fang Che arrived.

Previously, he was directing and carefully moving step by step, but now that Fang Che is here, the responsibility can finally be passed on.

Following this, Guardians began searching for Yin Shen Palace throughout the hills and valleys.

Zhao Shanhe and An Ruoxing stationed on either side, commenced a thorough search across the thousand-mile forest.

This was a truly thorough search.

Every inch of land was rummaged through.

But a strange occurrence unfolded: everyone was certain Yin Shen Palace was within this range, unable to escape!

Yet it mysteriously vanished.

Practically digging three feet deep, yet not finding a single living person.

The Divine Thought of masters from the Southeast Headquarters was already woven into a great net.

Yet, even such an exhaustive net failed to locate Yin Shen Palace!

"Did that bastard dissolve into the air?"

An Ruoxing erupted in fury!

"Continue searching!"

A command echoed, forcing everyone to keep searching.

Xiong Rushan was berated fiercely: "You blocked someone, didn’t think to send a message? You have a mouth under your nose, capable of speaking! It’s not just for eating!"

"Greedy, huh? This concerns the Southeast’s overall situation, and you’re trying to eat alone!?"

Xiong Rushan’s robust body shrunk almost into a mouse hole, face full of shame.

"Go find it, why are you dawdling!"

Everyone became even more meticulous.

Yet despite the detailed search, Yin Shen Palace had ostensibly vanished into thin air, and was untraceable.

The thousands of miles of land were plowed back and forth, yet nothing was found.

Fang Che and others also kept searching, even entering some abandoned caves.

But... naturally, they found nothing.

While searching, they encountered Old Man Shen.

"Oh, are you all gathered?" Old Man Shen remarked cheerfully.

"Not really gathered."

Fang Che chuckled: "I deliberately sought them out, wouldn’t fail in finding."

Old Man Shen, smiling casually, asked: "Found Yin Shen Palace?"

"No."

"Heh heh..."

Old Man Shen chuckled and said: "Don’t move ahead, wander behind, this time you’re not the main force."

"Understood."

"Fang Che."

"This disciple is present."

"Hehe, your cultivation has progressed greatly." Old Man Shen squinted.

"It’s alright."

Fang Che scratched his head, grinning sheepishly.

"Such an honest appearance is comforting." Old Man Shen remarked: "Roll along."

"Then I’ll roll..."

"Roll!"

Two days and nights later, the Southeast Headquarters announced the failure of the mission to search and encircle Yin Shen Palace.

All personnel returned to their respective homes for rest.

Only Xiong Rushan’s Battle Platform remained, searching aimlessly like a headless fly in the entire forest.

In the void.

Duan Xiyang, who had been observing, also went away deep in thought.

Sun Wutian had suffered damage to his mind and was severely injured at the roots, already returning to the Southeast Headquarters.

With him at Weiwo Orthodox Southeast Headquarters, Duan Xiyang felt disgusted towards the Southeast Headquarters, didn’t even go, and moved in the opposite direction.

"Where are you?"

"I’m hiding in a secret location arranged by Yemo, safe and sound."

"Take care of yourself."

"Understood, my lord."

"After escaping danger, return to the sect and confess."

"I understand. It was indeed too reckless of me this time."

"It’s good you know."

Somewhere.

Fang Che and others breathed a sigh of relief.

The siege concluded.

Luckily, they didn’t find the Yin Shen Palace; otherwise... Duan Xiyang would have to act. Although there are quite a few peak masters guarding here, including Fang Che himself, they really have little confidence in stopping this killing machine.

Since they didn’t find the Yin Shen Palace, just as well, there’s a big celebration at Bibo City, and today is the day of welcome - so Zhao Shanhe simply led the high-ranking officials of the Southeast Headquarters, along with An Ruoxing and others, and about a hundred Hall Masters from various Guardian Halls, to Bibo City to attend the wedding banquet.

"Even though we didn’t catch the Yin Shen Palace, having come all this way, it’s only right to drink a cup of wine before leaving."

"Inspector Fang, you have the right to face here."

"Let’s go, everyone give Inspector Fang face, all go to the wedding banquet."

"..."

At a call, everyone went in a rumble.

Fang Che: "...I didn’t invite anyone... What face am I given?"

But since everyone went, can you really drive them away?

He could only pinch his nose: "...Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome..."

Mo Gan Yun and others were even more delighted.

"Let’s go, go to Boss Fang’s wedding banquet!"

"Boss Fang’s parents are getting married today, it’s a great day!"

"Right, right, I heard it’s their first marriage, truly a match made in heaven."

"Boss Fang, being the son, just right to be the best man! Oh, happiness..."

Fang Che listened, his face lined with dissatisfaction.

These guys seem to be talking about his family’s celebration, but listening to it, those words, although not technically wrong, somehow felt seriously off...

First marriage... great joy... son... best man...

This darn...

Fang Che sucked in air all the way, his teeth aching.

His eyes darted around wanting to hit someone, but no one gave him the chance or reason.

Not even Dongyun Yu had a serious face: "Boss Fang, your parents are my parents too, today our parents are getting married, I, as their son, must drink a few good cups!"

Listen to this.

Is there anything wrong with these words? No, right?

But... isn’t it kind of off?

Dongyun Yu, Feng Xiangdong, Yu Zhongge, Xue Wanren suddenly became popular.

Because since they were going to attend the wedding, how could they not bring a gift?

But Qiu Yunshang, Mo Gan Yun, and Jing Shuanggao didn’t have Space Rings.

And these four had Space Rings!

So, gifts were needed to impress.

The four were quite full of themselves for a while, but in the end, they managed to pool together the gifts.

And they were all good things.

That brought them peace of mind.

Fang Che was nitpicking throughout: "This won’t do, too shabby, get something better."

Grinding his teeth as he provocatively picked and criticized everything.

But everyone ignored him.

Knowing this guy was itching to hit someone, would we fall for his trick? Better to spend money to avoid disaster.

Besides, they were gifts.

Dongyun Yu clicked his tongue twice: "Parents’ wedding, son’s gift selection, neither this nor that..."

His words were only meant for the buddies to hear.

Of course, he wouldn’t let Fang Che hear.

Immediately, laughter erupted.

Fang Che turned his head, dark-faced, instantly everyone went silent.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing!"

"Speak!"

"I thought of something happy."

"Me too."

"..."

Fang Che only felt his chest swelling with repressed anger.

Throughout this, Tianquan Monarch Jiang Shangou got close to Fang Che and the gang, smiling as he watched Fang Che and his brothers joking.

His gaze warm, somewhat envious.

But mostly blessings.

Upon reaching the outskirts of Bibo City, Jiang Shangou called out to Fang Che: "Inspector Fang."

Fang Che turned to look, only to see Jiang Shangou standing far away under a tree, not moving forward.

Flying over, he laughed: "Mr. Jiang this is..."

"I have official duties, already delayed these days, I won’t enter the city to drink."

Jiang Shangou looked deeply at his face, calmly said: "Here is a gift, please Inspector Fang, deliver it on my behalf. A modest gift, just a token, I hope Inspector Fang won’t find it lacking."

He handed over a Jade Box.

"Fang Che on behalf of my parents thanks the Tianquan Monarch."

Fang Che accepted with both hands.

Jiang Shangou looked at Fang Che’s face, smiling: "Inspector Fang, you and your brothers have a wonderful bond. I, Jiang, find it quite enviable as well."
