In the end, Fan Daoyi didn't get involved in this matter anymore. He wasn't the kind of person who liked to get involved in complicated matters, not to mention that the existence of the flesh ball was beneficial to Guixu.

And [Eight Trigrams] will also pass the whole thing on, which is their usual way of doing things, passing on half-solved matters to others like a hot potato.

The excuse was simple and direct: it's too much trouble, we can't let [Twelve Hours] be idle, give it to them.

Finally, after some discussion, it was decided that [Twelve Hours] would investigate the Four Fiends Cult members hidden in Azure Cloud City, while they asked Kan Water to analyze the flesh ball to see if they could figure out a way to kill it.

What are you doing?

Fan Daoyi, still half asleep, saw He Piaojian and Li Fire Zhen Thunder huddled together, their heads close together, whispering and plotting something.

His curiosity was piqued, and he leaned closer; he was quite interested in some of the Eight Trigrams.

"Nothing much, just talking about the guy from [Twelve Hours]," He Piaojian replied. "There's a guy from [Twelve Hours] who can foresee the future. When we handed over duties to her today, she left behind a strange message."

"Hmm?" Fan Daoyi showed a hint of amusement.

What could be the meaning behind those words that left He Piaojian bewildered?

"She said we have [Five Disadvantages and Three Deficiencies]. I lack money, and the boss lacks power. Similarly, the other six also lack these, but she just sighed and didn't say anything more," He Piaojian said without hiding anything.

Fan Daoyi nodded in agreement. "Indeed, you don't seem to be short of money."

He looked He Piaojian up and down. This guy extorted so much money every day, he didn't seem like someone who was worried about money at all.

My thoughts drifted to another point: what exactly are the Five Disadvantages and Three Deficiencies?

"No, no, no, I'm pretty accurate." He Piaojian denied Fan Daoyi's words, shrugging helplessly, "I really can't hold onto the money; the problem lies with the boss."

He began to recount his unfortunate experiences, saying that the money he extorted would always be spent for some inexplicable reason. Even the money he handed over would usually be lost due to some unexpected event, leaving him without any wealth.

"Your 1,000 yuan that was stolen last time and you still haven't gotten it back might have something to do with me," He Piaojian sighed, head drooping, looking dejected. "Damn it, my three greatest loves in life are money, food, and fun, and yet I'm destined to be penniless."

Fan Daoyi moment, then gave them a deep look. "Do you all believe that Qian Heaven, having ascended to a high position, already wields significant power?"

"Yes, the [Eight Trigrams] rank is much higher than you imagine. To become our leader, you must have a lot of power. So, we really don't understand why you suddenly say you lack power. You truly live up to your reputation as a famous half-baked fortune teller."

Fan Daoyi continued to inquire, "And what does this mean?"

"For example, she foresaw a great victory in an operation, but she didn't anticipate that you would accidentally fall into a cesspool on your way to the operation."

Li Fire laughs, she said, "This reminds me of something. He foresaw the boss's potential and that he would eventually join the official organization. They went to invite him, and the boss did join, but we snatched him away, haha."

Zhen Thunder then added, "It was Xun Wind who intercepted him. Back then, our leader was a candidate to inherit Chen Dragon's position in [Twelve Hours], a highly anticipated figure. But he was just pulled into [Eight Trigrams] so easily. This infuriated everyone in [Twelve Hours], like a precious treasure had been snatched away."

"So now that sorceress and Xun Wind don't get along at all," He Piaojian chuckled. "You have no idea how sour her face is when she sees Xun Wind."

"Hey, do you think that sorceress is holding a grudge and deliberately saying that the boss lacks power, implying that Qian Heaven's position is inferior to Chen Dragon's?" Xun Wind's voice suddenly appeared.

He poked his little head out from under the table; his hair was a little messy, and his eyes were blinking.

Li Fire peeked her head under the table, her careless movement nearly bumping into Xun Wind. She teased with a grin, "Hey, still hiding? I thought you left a long time ago."

Xun Wind pushed away her face, which was so close to his, and squeezed out to find a seat. He smoothed his messy hair, trying to restore his composure, and muttered, "I just don't want to argue with her too much. If we really fought, she couldn't beat me... um, you guys."

Li Fire teased, "You all claim to have similar special abilities, so why is your combat strength such a mess?"

Xun Wind immediately bristled upon hearing this, retorting, "What's wrong with me? I'm clearly very talented at shooting; none of you can beat me in that area."

Zhen Thunder laughed heartily and mercilessly retorted, "You're just a blind cat catching a dead mouse. You have Intuition, you could hit the bullseye with your eyes closed."

Also, to correct you, your long-held position as number Dao Yi.

Xun Wind looked at Fan Daoyi in disbelief, his face filled with astonishment and a hint of despair. "Dao Yi, do you have to be so abnormal...? How many first places have you won now?"

Fan Daoyi didn't really understand their complaints to him. Apart from the combat strength aspect, the training was like playing a game. After searching his mind for a long time for the right words, he finally replied casually.

"Anyone can do it."

All four of them instinctively clutched their chests and lowered their heads, as if they had suffered a tremendous blow.

They were all screaming in their hearts: This is heartbreaking, so heartbreaking.

"Ah!" Xun Wind his hand on the table and stood up. "I think you should be called Versailles instead of Fan Daoyi!"

He left the small table that was piercing his heart, running and crying, "Waaah, Mom said we don't play with perverts!"

Fan Daoyi watched Xun Wind's trotting figure disappear into the distance, his expression once again revealing a puzzled look.

Turning back to the other three, he asked, "What's wrong with him?"

The three men's lips twitched. Even He Piaojian, who was never serious, sighed, patted Fan Daoyi on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Dao Yi, we're working in the same organization, don't be so discouraging."

?

Fan Daoyi was increasingly confused by them; humans were just too strange.

He shook his head slightly. "I wasn't trying to discourage him, I was just stating the facts. It really is very simple, anyone can do it."

A small doubt lingered in her eyes as she stared at the three of them. "Aren't you...?"

"Haha." Li Fire suddenly laughed awkwardly, stood up from his seat, and walked towards the training room in the strength section.

Zhen Thunder also stood up, supporting himself on the table, and followed Li Fire.

A fighting spirit ignited before them, and their steps became exceptionally firm. This was the only training ground that hadn't yet been occupied by Fan Daoyi, and they were determined to hold it to the death!

Qian Heaven and Kun Earth watched from afar. Kun Earth couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't we take down the rankings? Dao Yi's words are too harsh; it's been too much of a blow to them..."
