Realm of the Night God

At this moment, whether it was Wang Yiming or Jiang Die, both of them were covered in blood, their breathing weak, and their clothes tattered and worn out. The signs of battle were evident all over their bodies.

It was clear that they had just gone through a fierce battle.

However, looking at their pale faces and frantic expressions, it seemed that they were not the victors of this battle.

The two of them had just rushed out of the space rift and hadn't even had time to catch their breath when the space around them began to fluctuate again. A space rift appeared, and a figure shot out, landing in front of them, blocking their path.

This person was hunched over, leaning on a cane. The cane looked ordinary, but due to long-term use, the part held in the hand had formed a callus.

This was an old woman with a face full of wrinkles and white hair. From her appearance, she looked just as ordinary as the cane in her hand, but her attire, which was that of a Fu Sect black talisman master, revealed her extraordinary identity.

The old woman's appearance caused Wang Yiming and Jiang Die to suddenly stop in their tracks. Both of them were aware of the old woman's strength and didn't dare to charge forward, instead watching her with caution, prepared for a sudden attack.

The old woman looked at the two of them, smiled coldly, and was about to say something when she suddenly sensed something and turned around slowly to look behind her.

Behind the old woman was the Mountain and Water Formation's barrier. Since the Mountain and Water Formation hadn't been attacked, the Barrier Light Curtain hadn't appeared, and only the Great Array's illusionary barrier could be seen with the naked eye, making it impossible to see the real scene inside the Great Array.

At this moment, under the old woman's gaze, the Barrier Light Curtain regionally revealed itself, and a figure walked out of the light screen. This person had a smile on their face and first looked at Wang Yiming and Jiang Die before shifting their gaze to the old woman.

This person was none other than Yang Haoran.

Currently, there were only three people left in the villa, excluding Yang Haoran, who was accompanied by Feng Xiao and Xiu Juan.

Feng Xiao was busy with alchemy, and Yang Haoran wouldn't disturb her. Xiu Juan, due to her special identity, was rarely allowed to appear in public by Yang Haoran.

As for the others, the Spirit Police had encountered some difficulties, so Bai Xue had gone out to execute a task and wasn't at home. Ye Zhiqiu, on the other hand, still hadn't returned, and Yang Haoran didn't know what level his strength had reached, but he knew that Ye Zhiqiu was still alive and knew his location.

As for Master Wu and Xiaokang, they had gone out to handle the Yin Division's affairs and weren't at home.

It was precisely because of this that Yang Haoran had appeared alone. Although he didn't have any helpers by his side, he didn't feel any pressure in his heart.

Yang Haoran's sudden appearance didn't surprise the old woman, as this was his residence, and their appearance would naturally attract his attention. As the master of the house, it was only natural for Yang Haoran to appear.

Moreover, she also knew that Wang Yiming seemed to have some relationship with Yang Haoran. Since Wang Yiming had escaped to this place, it would be strange if Yang Haoran didn't appear.

"I apologize for disturbing Yang Divine Envoy." This tеxt wаs асquirеd frоm М|V|L0ЕМРYR.

The old woman spoke with a smile before Yang Haoran could even open his mouth, her attitude still quite polite.

"Ha ha, may I ask... what's going on here?"

Yang Haoran's gaze fell on the old woman as he smiled and asked, his attitude even more polite than hers.

Although Yang Haoran had only glanced at Wang Yiming and Jiang Die, from their expressions as they looked at the old woman, he had already understood something.

However, understanding is one thing, but pretending not to know is another. Should I ask or not ask?

"Hehe, Old Lady is handling some internal affairs of our Fu Sect. If I'm disturbing you, Yang Divine Envoy, I hope you can forgive me."

The old lady smiled in response, although her attitude was still very polite, but the meaning behind her words was to remind Yang Haoran not to meddle in their business.

"Your Fu Sect's internal affairs? What's so important that you have to come to my doorstep to handle it? Hehe, could it be that you're doing it on purpose for me to see?"

Yang Haoran naturally understood the old lady's implied meaning, but he didn't follow her lead, instead, he counterattacked.

This old lady was one of the few black talisman masters in Lecheng Fu Sect.

Similarly, the old lady also knew Yang Haoran, after all, in the circle of extraordinary people in Lecheng, Yang Haoran's reputation was much greater than hers.

It was because of this that the old lady had some understanding of Yang Haoran's character, so when Yang Haoran counterattacked, she didn't show any dissatisfaction or surprise, because she had already prepared herself mentally.

"It's not that I, the old lady, want to come to your territory to handle Fu Sect's internal affairs, but because those two escaped to here, and I was forced to come to your esteemed place to disturb you."

The two of them seemed to be smiling and chatting, but from the first sentence, they had already begun a verbal sparring match, and the brief exchange of words made Yang Haoran feel that this old lady was not simple.

However, Yang Haoran didn't mind, because he wasn't a pushover either.

"Would you mind telling me what those two did wrong?"

The old lady pretended to be troubled, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"Yang Divine Envoy, this is our Fu Sect's internal affair, and since it involves some secrets of our Fu Sect, it's not convenient for me to tell you. I hope you can understand, just like if I were to ask you about your Yin Division's affairs, would you tell me?"

Regarding the old lady's counterquestion, Yang Haoran thought for a moment and then smiled and nodded.

"The old talisman master is right, if it involves organizational secrets, it's not something that can be casually discussed. Since secrets can't be asked, then I'll ask the old talisman master a non-secret question instead."

The old lady didn't know what Yang Haoran was planning, but her face didn't show any dissatisfaction, and she still maintained a warm and friendly smile, like a kind old grandmother.

"Hehe, please ask, Yang Divine Envoy. If I know and it doesn't involve our Fu Sect's secrets, I'll definitely tell you everything."

The old lady's response was very straightforward, but Yang Haoran, of course, wouldn't believe that she would speak from the heart.

"I wonder how the old talisman master plans to handle those two?"

Yang Haoran smiled and asked, his expression as if he was asking about something that didn't concern him at all.

"I'm going to take those two traitors back to Fu Sect now, and as for how to handle them, I still need to discuss with other talisman masters in the sect before making a decision."

Jiang Die, who had been silent until now, couldn't listen anymore. She hadn't spoken earlier because she needed to catch her breath, and also because she wanted to see Yang Haoran's attitude.

However, Yang Haoran's attitude made her very dissatisfied, and the old lady's words about them being traitors stimulated her even more.

"You old thing, who's the real traitor? You know it in your heart, don't try to shift the blame!"

Jiang Die's personality was something Yang Haoran had seen before, so he wasn't surprised when she suddenly scolded the old lady. He remained very calm and composed.

The old lady's reaction was also very calm, and even though Jiang Die called her an old thing, her face didn't show any anger.

She didn't turn to look at Jiang Die, nor did she take any action against her. Her gaze was still fixed on Yang Haoran, and as for Jiang Die, she completely ignored her.

For the old lady, the difficult one to deal with was Yang Haoran, the Underworld Envoy, not Jiang Die and Wang Yiming in their current state. As long as she could handle Yang Haoran, the other matters would naturally be resolved.

However, she knew that Wang Yiming had some relationship with Yang Haoran, so it wouldn't be easy to handle, but to achieve her goal, she could only be patient and try to resolve the issue without using force.

After all, Yang Haoran was a high-ranking official in Lecheng Yin Division, and if things escalated into a conflict with him, it would be detrimental to her and her future, so she didn't want things to develop to that point.

As for how to do it, she had already thought of a plan to make Yang Haoran not intervene without using force.
