NOVEL WEB Chapter 499, Saint Maozi_3
This Russian is cautious.
Stay tuned with empire
He didn't speak directly about the matter.
Of course, Fang Hao was just testing the waters, seeing if he could tease out any information about the church.
Now that the Russian isn't willing to talk, he doesn't mind.
He scoffed, "You wish. If you don't want to talk, then so be it. Goodbye!"
Having said that, he stood up to leave.
Xu Haide didn't expect him to just get up and leave. He quickly said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll spill your secrets?"
Fang Hao paused as he reached the door.
Xu Haide thought that Fang Hao was scared and was about to continue his threats.
Instead, he heard Fang Hao's voice, full of murderous intent, say again, "Cherish the life you have. Don't court death."
With that, Fang Hao turned and left.
Only Xu Haide remained, sitting stiffly in his chair, his hand frozen in the air with his glass half raised.
Unable to make his next move for some time.
He could feel that Fang Hao wasn't joking.
Given his past actions, if pushed too hard he might actually kill him.
But now, he's a saint of the church and his territory is a church stronghold.
What could Fang Hao do to him? Where would he get the resources?
"Hmph! Ridiculous."
Xu Haide sneered and picked up his mug, drinking to his heart's content.
After Fang Hao and his party left, the Paladin and attendant outside also came in.
They coldly asked, "Sir, should I gather the followers to arrest him? It wouldn't be difficult."
Xu Haide gazed out of the window at the people leaving the pub.
He smiled slightly and calmly said, "There's no rush. We won't take any action before the council meeting."
"Very well, sir," the Paladin replied.
Xu Haide continued to stare out of the window, sneering as the figures disappeared.
...
"What a bastard." Anjia fumed.
"Exactly, what a bastard," Lorrey agreed.
"If I get my hands on him, I'll smash his damned head in."
"Smash his head in," Lorrey echoed, "Do you want to eat it too?"
Anjia glanced at him, "Eat it!"
After leaving the pub...
The two of them ranted and raved the whole way, cursing Xu Haide from head to toe.
But they didn't forget to eat.
They ate while they complained.
After wandering around all morning, they returned home in the afternoon.
Nobody came to bother them again.
At two in the afternoon.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Lord Mayor, the lady is having a tantrum. Could you check on her when you have the time?" The maid's voice came from outside.
A tantrum?
Rebecca is usually very resilient. It's rare for her to lose her temper.
Conveniently, Fang Hao was planning to discuss today's events with Rebecca.
So he said, "Alright, I'll be right out."
After getting dressed...
He left his room.
He walked through the long corridor and stopped before a room.
Standing at the door, he could hear the sound of things being thrown around inside.
Whatever had upset Rebecca this much must be a big deal.
He left the maid outside and went in alone.
As soon as he entered...
He saw Rebecca, about to throw a stack of books down from over her head.
Seeing Fang Hao come in, she immediately calmed down.
She slammed the books down onto the table and sat back in her chair, her expression stern.
"What's going on? Who has angered our city's lady?" Fang Hao came over, put his hands on her shoulders, and softly asked.
Rebecca was still angry.
Standing behind her, he could see her full chest rising and falling dramatically with her anger.
It was as if someone was inflating and letting air out of a balloon, over and over.
Rebecca took a deep breath and angrily said:
"There's a traitor in Lyss City who sold sensitive information to Groot. If these matters get out, we may not be able to get out of Silver Wing City alive."
