Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018 - 450: Green Demon Arc – Rainy Night of the End

Ding Hui’s home remains chaotic and messy, filled with a jumble of useful and useless things strewn about the room.

However, compared to usual, there seems to be slightly fewer items in this mess.

A shadowy figure is busy amidst the cluttered room.

Even though things are placed in nooks and crannies, seemingly hidden away in the corners of the ’trash heap’, Ding Hui can extract the items she wants from the pile of junk, as if they’re her cherished possessions.

"This is it! This can’t be left behind!"

Ding Hui held up the item in her hand.

In the dim room, only a single candle provided faint light, barely illuminating the thing she held.

It was a damp, heart-like object, rising and falling as if breathing, looking quite disgusting.

"Most things are ready, but some precious materials are somewhat regrettable to leave behind..."

Ever since Fang Yu gave instructions, Ding Hui began packing her things at home.

But she accumulated so much stuff in Tianyuan Town that hiring a carriage would naturally solve the problem, yet Diao Deyi’s requirement was to travel light, ready to leave at any moment, so Ding Hui constantly reduced her load.

This process made her quite conflicted.

Fortunately, she’s kept the important materials for Bloodline Spirit research, though she still wants to carry more of other items.

"Isn’t this large bundle a bit too conspicuous..."

Ding Hui looked at the large bag on the ground, nearly half her size, bulging and stuffed with who knows how many things.

"Perhaps I should throw away some herbal medicine and swap it for other things..."

She quickly walked towards the large bundle, squatted down to search...

Boom!

Thunder flashed in the sky!

Ding Hui suddenly froze.

Because she saw that the flashing thunder outlined a person outside, their silhouette reflected inside.

Gulp.

Ding Hui swallowed hard.

To silently open her room door and stand at the doorway, unnoticed during the brief intervals of thunder, the person far exceeds her in strength!

Slowly rising.

Gradually, Ding Hui turned around.

Boom!

Another flash of thunder illuminated the figure, allowing Ding Hui to see the visitor clearly.

At just a glance, Ding Hui’s tense nerves relaxed.

"You scared me! Why didn’t you say anything when you arrived."

After speaking, Ding Hui squatted down again to fuss with her large bundle.

"Is it time? Wait a moment, I’m almost done packing."

Indeed, standing at the door was none other than Fang Yu.

At the moment, Fang Yu watched Ding Hui, still busy, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Ding Hui, stop packing, take your luggage, and go directly to the south gate to wait for me."

Alright...?

Ding Hui opted not to agonize further, hoisted the exaggeratedly large bundle, and faced Fang Yu.

Then she saw Fang Yu’s piercing gaze.

"...Cough! I’ll throw some out, I can throw some out..."

Reluctantly, she emptied half of the bundle’s contents, rapidly shrinking its size by half, and said with frustration: "Is this okay now."

"Sneak out, don’t draw anyone’s attention."

Just as Ding Hui was about to nod, she suddenly realized something.

"Wait! The Tianyuan Formation is still active, even if I’m at the south gate, we can’t get out."

"I’ll handle it. If nothing goes wrong, the Tianyuan Formation should be dissolved soon. No matter what, just wait for me at the south gate; I’ll come find you."

Though the thunder’s light had faded, Ding Hui still noticed.

At this moment, Diao Deyi seemed slightly off, and during their conversation, appeared distracted.

"Diao Deyi, are you... alright?"

Ding Hui approached Fang Yu, who merely shook his head slightly.

The dim candlelight failed to illuminate far, leaving the door-bound Fang Yu shrouded in darkness, only his voice reaching out.

"I’m fine. Ding Hui, don’t worry, leave it to me. I’ll end this, then we’ll leave Tianyuan Town together."

Together... leave Tianyuan Town.

Ding Hui paused, silently tightened her grip on the bundle.

"Alright! Awaiting your update! I’ll be at the south gate for your message!"

Slinging the bundle over her shoulder, Ding Hui passed by Fang Yu.

Thunder flashed in the cloud-covered sky, illuminating below.

Their crossing faces bore contrasting expressions.

Fang Yu’s face was filled with gravity and confusion.

Ding Hui’s face showed anticipation and excitement.

As the thunder darkened, Ding Hui quickly left, disappearing from Fang Yu’s perception.

"End this, can I achieve that?"

Fang Yu opened his right palm, revealing the Authority Token given by Green Demon.

"No! It must be done! Otherwise, Second Sister won’t wake up, and Sister Jin won’t survive!"

His hand slowly clenched into a fist.

Fang Yu lowered his head, gazing at the ground.

"Brother Qing is already placated at the inn, he still trusts me. Without seeing me at the inn, he won’t leave impulsively."

"This is Brother Qing’s absolute trust in me; beforehand, he wouldn’t take a single step away from the inn!"

"I must seize this moment; report the demon intelligence to the Five Great Families’ ancestors and offer the Authority Token."

"With this advantage, there’s a great chance human high levels can eliminate the demon."

"Once humans win, the Tianyuan Formation induced by the demon will naturally dissolve."

"But this activity will certainly grab Green Demon’s attention."
