After their punishnt, Ace and King of Spades were shaking uncontrollably. Still, they maintained their posture, kneeling with their heads almost touching the ground.
They didn't dare to look at Fang Xiu.
The pain was unbearable, and they respected his power imnsely.
Just a single hair from him could cause such imnse pain, and they couldn't imagine how powerful he would be if he exerted his full strength.
At that mont, Fang Xiu's phone rang.
It was Su Kexin.
Fang Xiu waved his hand, signaling the two Spades to leave. They were overjoyed, thanked him profusely, and left without looking back.
"Fang Xiu, please report to the Investigation Bureau at 9 am tomorrow. Our target this ti is Green Mountain ntal Hospital," Su Kexin said.
"Okay," Fang Xiu responded, and then the call ended.
Su Kexin pouted in dissatisfaction. _'He's always like this, cold as ice. Is it that hard to say sothing extra to ?'_
In the Investigation Bureau, Ma Xingbang, who had been feeling a sense of looming danger, suddenly relaxed._ _
_'The killing intent is gone? Has the person watching left?'_
He had plagiarized a special ability to sense killing intent, which was incredibly useful, especially when he was the target. This ability had saved his life before, and he always reserved a spot for it among his plagiarized skills.
He had an argunt with Fang Xiu the other day. After Fang Xiu left, he sensed killing intent at that ti.
Initially, he thought Fang Xiu was behind it, but then he reasoned it couldn't be Fang Xiu since it would be too obvious. They had just had a confrontation in front of others. If an assassination attempt followed imdiately it would point directly to him.
Ma Xingbang was puzzled. It was his first ti in Greenvine City, and aside from Fang Xiu, he had no enemies there.
_'Why would soone want to kill ? Could it be that Fang Xiu isn't with the Pokers and soone is trying to fra him, making think Fang Xiu was the culprit?'_
Ma Xingbang's mind was racing with thoughts.
Fang Xiu had no idea that his random assassination attempt had cleared so of Ma Xingbang's suspicions.
Fang Xiu had never wanted that; he simply found Ma Xingbang annoying and wanted him gone sooner rather than later.
In his original plan, the assassination was supposed to be carried out by the two Spades, leaving no direct link to himself.
He wasn't part of the Pokers, so suspicions wouldn't fall on him. Even faced with a lie detector, he would boldly claim he wasn't the one who killed Ma Xingbang.
The next day, Fang Xiu, Yang Ming, Bai Qi, and Ma Xingbang went to Green Mountain ntal Hospital.
Despite the previous tension between him and Fang Xiu, Ma Xingbang acted as if nothing had happened. Now, he stopped talking about the spy issue and insisted on exploring Green Mountain ntal Hospital together.
Fang Xiu paid no attention to Ma Xingbang's behavior. He was more interested in Green Mountain ntal Hospital.
There were many secrets hidden there: the truth about the world, Zhou Qingfeng's gift, man-made Specters, and why Yang Ming was the chosen one.
Last ti, Fang Xiu wasn't strong enough to explore Green Mountain ntal Hospital. But now, after a few months, he had improved greatly.
He had beco a second-tier psychic and rged with the powers of several Specters. He had many tricks up his sleeve and wasn't afraid of even third-tier psychics.
Only four of them went to explore Green Mountain ntal Hospital this ti. Zhao Hao and the others didn't join because this was a high-level mission. This place was a Specter Zone where S-tier Specters were born, and others would only be a burden.
Wang Dehai initially didn't want Fang Xiu to take the risk. But Ma Xingbang claid he had a key that could guarantee safety, so Wang Dehai agreed hesitantly.
"Once we enter the Specter Zone of Green Mountain ntal Hospital, follow my orders. If anyone disobeys, I will kill them before the Specters do," Fang Xiu said calmly.
Ma Xingbang remained expressionless, knowing the warning was for him. He didn't react to Fang Xiu taking command and seed to be plotting sothing.
To ease the tension, Yang Ming laughed and said, "Xiu, you can foresee the future, so of course we'll follow your lead. Let's go."
Fang Xiu nodded and led the way to Green Mountain ntal Hospital, with the others following.
Ma Xingbang, at the back of the group, glanced at Fang Xiu's back and then around him._ 'I don't sense any killing intent. But I'm fully prepared, and THAT THING will be mine.'_
Soon, they all entered Green Mountain ntal Hospital. As they stepped in, they felt dizzy, and the scenery around them changed.
When they regained their senses, they were already inside the dark and eerie corridors of the hospital.
Ma Xingbang, experienced with such situations, said, "The Specter Zone here is strong enough to warp space, which will make exploration much more difficult."
Fang Xiu looked around silently. The scene before him, one he had dreamt of countless tis, began to stir his long-dormant emotions.
The place had undergone so unknown changes since his last visit. It was now darker, with an ominous atmosphere.
Just standing there, Fang Xiu could feel his soul trembling, as if it was on the verge of losing control.
Yang Ming, alard, said, "The concentration of Specter energy here is too high. We've just entered, and I already feel like my soul is being invaded. Xiu, did you really survive this terrifying place before?"
Fang Xiu shook his head, "The concentration of Specter energy wasn't this high last ti. The seal here must be weakening, allowing more Specters to erge, which increases the concentration."
Yang Ming swallowed hard, "According to Yang Kunpeng, he saw three wandering Specters last ti. Does that an we have to face at least three Specters now?"
"Not just three," Bai Qi, who had been silent, suddenly said gravely, "The Specter energy is too intense. Just three Specters couldn't release so much energy. Over ti, the seal would weaken further, and the Specters that have already erged might attack the seals of other rooms."
As soon as Bai Qi finished, he noticed Yang Ming staring at him. His face darkened, "Why are you looking at like that?"
"Are you really Bai Qi? Are you a disguised Specter, or controlled by one like last ti? The real Bai Qi wouldn't talk this much. Sothing's wrong with you."
Bai Qi, infuriated, almost lost his temper. "So now you're bringing up last ti!?"
Just then, the sound of a bouncing ball ca from the depths of the corridor."
