Chapter 567 Bloodline Mutation
"Fang He's family business is ruined, he has no relatives or disciples, and now he's suffered because of me... so his merits and demerits even out... let him go..."
Fang Jiulian slowly began, "Although what he did this time was wrong and crossed the line, his relentless pursuit makes me, Fang Jiulian, seem ruthless..."
“But…” Fang Huandao was eager to argue, “My elder brother gave him so many chances, but Fang He didn’t know how to cherish them. In the end, he ended up like this, which is his own fault.”
Even if Fang He was once one of our own, even if he made many contributions.
But if it's wrong, then it's wrong.
Especially in this choice of stance, to blatantly collude with the Green-Clad Alliance is a blatant betrayal that touches upon the core interests of the eldest brother.
Fang He has already betrayed us; if we don't eliminate him completely...
A ruthless and ambitious figure like Fang He will inevitably cause a lot of trouble in the future, and it's unknown how much energy will be involved.
"No need." Fang Jiulian raised his hand to stop him. "I said, the matter of Fang He is over."
"...Alright..." Fang Huan could only shut up helplessly.
He knew Fang Jiulian's temperament better than anyone else; he was a man of his word and never went back on his word.
As if sensing his thoughts, Fang Jiulian said in a low voice, "Huan Dao, you don't really think Fang He can escape, do you...?"
"Brother, what do you mean...?" Fang Huandao was confused.
"Huan Dao, you need to know... right now, the ones in Huayang City who most want Fang He dead aren't us..." Fang Jiulian sneered, "Do you really think that Fang He committed such a huge mistake, and that his collusion with the Green Robe Alliance didn't happen overnight..."
"Jingtian Manor, those so-called trashy heads of the courtyards...didn't they participate?...If we're really talking about it, I think the entire Jingtian Manor is responsible!"
"Brother, are we going to... attack Jingtian Manor?!" Fang Huan asked in a low voice.
Jingtian Manor has controlled the Huayang City area for a long time, acting as a local tyrant for so many years. They are deeply rooted in the empire, and no change can be separated from them.
The reason why many new policies have changed slowly is that Jingtianzhuang is unwilling to cooperate.
Therefore, many within the government army viewed Jingtianzhuang as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh during the reform.
It can be said that the biggest obstacle to the new autumn policy and the reform of the government army was Jingtian Manor!
However, Jingtian Manor is, after all, the most prestigious and righteous sect in this area, and one of the five major powers in Yunzhou. It is well-known and has a good reputation in Huayang City.
Bad name, bad words.
Although the government army was strong enough to forcibly take over Jingtian Village, it could not ignore public opinion and attack Jingtian Village by force.
If we were to do that, the reforms would likely be incomplete before the government forces became disloyal and internally chaotic.
In particular, Jingtian Manor has developed a good relationship with Wanhua Palace, one of the five major powers in Yunzhou, and also has a good relationship with Yuanmiao Sect.
This was also the key reason for the internal discussions and hesitation within the government army.
Even if Yuanmiao Sect doesn't manage affairs now, it's not that they can't manage them, it's just that they don't want to.
If we were to forcibly attack Jingtian Manor and anger Yuanmiaozong, we would be losing more than we gain.
Therefore, in the recent changes involving Jingtian Manor, the government troops dared not go too far and could only discuss and coordinate among themselves. "No rush..." Fang Jiulian said slowly, "Once Fang He's matter is resolved... there will be an opportunity..."
"Let's not talk about that anymore. How are your preparations going with the Green Robe Alliance?" he asked Fang Huan.
"The investigation is almost complete. The saltpeter explosion case circulating among the people was indeed the work of the Green Robe Alliance. They wanted to smuggle saltpeter into the city, but we don't know what they were planning to do," Fang Huandao replied quickly.
“As expected, those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts… Regardless of what the Green-Clad Alliance’s purpose is… If they dare to do this, then it means… they deserve to die!” Fang Jiulian said coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the air around him suddenly contracted, and the air tightened as if an invisible hand was gripping his heart, making it hard to breathe.
"Big brother, what's next..." Fang Huan asked softly, like a frightened little rabbit.
"Let's begin then, according to the previous plan," Fang Jiulian said coldly. "Fang He... in the end, is just an appetizer... If we want the Valiant Battle Battalion to become a true legion... then it needs the tempering of death and bloodshed... Let the Green-Clad Alliance be the first whetstone..."
"Yes!"
Fang Huan bowed respectfully and withdrew.
Under his command, the surrounding soldiers also began to sweep the streets and slowly gathered to leave.
Meanwhile, rooftops in the distance.
"Should we chase or not?"
Han Yi and ** exchanged a glance at each other.
With their eyesight, they could naturally see Fang He being injured by the golden ring and fleeing in panic.
"Who is that person?" Han Yi asked in a low voice, his expression grave. Even from this distance, the oppressive feeling emanating from the ferocious figure was still immense.
"That's Fang Jiulian, the leader of the three young masters of Huayang!" he answered quickly.
"Fang Jiulian..." Han Yi remembered the name.
"Alright, let's leave him be. It seems Fang Jiulian isn't planning on chasing us. What are we going to do?" he asked. "If we don't chase him now, we won't be able to catch up."
"I'll go check it out. Wait for my news." Han Yi quickly replied, his mind racing.
"go together."
"It's too dangerous, I'll go check it out myself."
"I'm worried."
"You're quite loyal..." Han Yi looked at ** with some surprise, "You actually risked your life."
"You're overthinking it. I just want to see Fang Jiulian's backup plan. I don't believe he would just abandon Fang He and retreat like this," he said calmly.
Han Yi stared intently at his friend.
Although **'s expression remained calm, the eagerness and competitive desire in her eyes were exceptionally strong.
He understood immediately.
It seems that my good brother is not indifferent to the reputation of the three young masters of Huayang.
It's just that the gap between him and Fang Jiulian seems too big, which is why he has always acted as if he doesn't care at all.
Now, stimulated by Fang He's actions, his competitive spirit was immediately ignited.
"Alright, let's go together then, so we can look out for each other." Han Yi smiled.
"Go!" **He took the lead and sped off towards Fang He's direction. Han Yi shook his head and followed closely behind.
There were many scouts around, who, like them, were heading towards Fang and his location.
Han Yi and his companion were already far more skilled than the others, and both had practiced leg techniques. In just a few breaths, they left most of the group behind and rushed to the front of the group.
……………
……………
Bang! ! !
Fang He kicked open the door of the house, ignoring the terrified look in the eyes of the woman inside, and quickly opened the white jade porcelain bottle, swallowing all the "Blood Gathering Pills" inside.
"Water...is there any water..." His throat was hoarse, and his eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the woman.
“Water… over there…” The woman tightly shielded her daughter behind her, pointing to the water vat in the corner. No wonder she was so frightened; Fang He was covered in blood, knife wounds, arrow wounds, gunshot wounds… and charred explosion wounds. There wasn’t a single unscathed spot on his body.
His shoulder was particularly badly affected, with a huge, ring-shaped wound running through it. Inside, numerous golden specks of light were moving about, constantly corroding the surrounding muscle.
Who wouldn't be afraid of someone like that?
"good…..."
Fang He nodded and clasped his hands together.
They actually managed to lift the water vat, weighing hundreds of kilograms, out of thin air.
Glug glug...
He lifted the large vat with one hand and drank voraciously.
A short while later, most of the water in the vat seemed to have vanished into his stomach.
hiss…...
As the cool well water entered his stomach, the pills he had taken gradually began to digest, bursting open rapidly and activating his blood and qi.
In a short period of time, his wounds, large and small, began to heal.
However, the persistent corrosive wound on his shoulder inflicted by Fang Jiulian showed no signs of improvement.
"Fang Jiulian...!!!" Fang He shouted in a low voice.
As Fang Jiulian's subordinate for many years, he naturally understood Fang Jiulian's meaning.
If he survives Fang Jiulian's attack and manages to escape successfully...
Then this matter is considered closed, and Fang Jiulian will not interfere further in the future.
But will he be able to escape alive?
A flicker of confusion crossed Fang He's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a ruthless glint. He had to survive to repay "today's kindness"!
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and took out a large pill wrapped in oiled paper from his pocket.
Before the oil paper was even unwrapped, a strong, pungent smell of blood filled the air.
The pill was swallowed with difficulty, and Fang He's body suddenly contracted and condensed, making him much smaller.
Swish!
In an instant, countless brown-black hairs appeared on Fang He's body, densely packed and intertwined, like mountain monkeys.
"Power...I need power!!!"
Fang He's eyes were completely bloodshot, and he let out a low growl like a wild beast.
BOOM BOOM!!
His body instantly swelled up, his size rapidly increasing. His originally thin frame grew much larger in a short time, and the veins on his bare upper body bulged, while his black, blocky muscles suddenly became bulging and knotted.
The bloodlust in Fang He's eyes intensified, and a hint of brutal cruelty crept into his eyes.
hiss...
As Fang He's body changed, the penetrating wound on his shoulder slowly began to grow black granulation tissue and heal rapidly.
"Martial arts... is ultimately a lowly path. Only our bloodline is the true and unique source of strength..."
Fang He looked at the changes in himself with some delight, a hint of fanaticism flashing in his eyes from time to time.
scoff!
Fang He's fine leather boots were instantly torn apart, and his hands and feet had completely transformed into sharp claws resembling those of an ape.
His hands were large, with thick knuckles, and his fingernails gleamed with a cold light, like sharp daggers.
Fang He, with his dark, blocky muscles resembling iron ingots, suddenly pushed himself up with all his might.
His clothes were completely torn apart, revealing his dark fur underneath.
This is simply a giant ape.
"Mother... monster... monster!!!"
The little girl in the corner finally couldn't hold back any longer and screamed in terror.
A perfectly healthy person can turn into a monster that resembles both a human and an ape in broad daylight.
Anyone who sees this scene will feel extreme fear.
“Monster…you’re right…” Fang He felt a surge of savagery in his eyes as he felt the monster within him. “As a reward for witnessing the purification of my bloodline, then come and merge with me!”
He drooled greedily, licked his lips, and stared intently at the mother and daughter in the corner.
Blood purification, as the name suggests, is the process of increasing the concentration of declining blood in the body, thus achieving a level of blood awakening.
According to the usual practice, members of a family with a particular bloodline need to use a secret formula to gradually absorb similar bloodlines, eliminate impurities, and strengthen their own bloodline.
Fang He, however, skipped countless intermediate steps, omitting the process of using rare and secret medicines and refining his own bloodline with a single specially made pill.
Of course, this is not without its costs.
The price is...
Fang and his enormous, fan-like ape claws suddenly grabbed the middle-aged woman's waist and, drooling, put her into his mouth.
"Come, come... let's become one... as nourishment for my growth and evolution..."
"Mother...!!!" the little girl cried out in a hoarse voice, but to no avail.
She could only reach Fang He's thighs, and no matter how hard she pounded, Fang He didn't react at all.
"Don't rush...it will be your turn soon..." Fang He stretched out two fingers, gently pinched the girl's neck, and lifted her up.
He was afraid that making too much noise would arouse suspicion among those around him, who would then tip him off and attract pursuers.
"Why…..."
At that moment, a soft sigh was heard.
"Who?!"
Fang roared, emitting an ominous, beastly howl.
Although the sigh was faint, to him it was like being struck by lightning.
Suddenly, a person appeared in the corner of the small room.
With flowing sleeves, a feather fan, and a scholar's cap, he was dressed as a refined gentleman, but beneath his calm gaze lay a cold indifference as deep as a lake.
"Zhao, Zhao Ziyang?!"
Fang He recognized the person's identity, his mind was shaken, and the terrifying ape's face showed a human-like expression of fear.
“Fang He…you’ve gone too far…” Zhao Ziyang sighed as he looked at the mother and daughter who had already fainted.
"Have you forgotten the bottom line of being a human being...?" He looked at Fang He's completely mutated body, a trace of pity in his eyes.
Bloodline mutation, or even a complete mutation, brings temporary strength, but in return, it leads to the gradual loss of rationality and becoming a product of bloodline mutation.
“The bottom line…” Fang He smiled bitterly, “What’s the point of saying all this when we can’t even survive?”
“Your greed is too strong, you are unscrupulous and leave no room for maneuver in your actions, and this is your own end…” Zhao Ziyang said calmly.
