CFSMS -Chapter 95 The Password Is Correct – This One Is a Fellow Believer

The headquarters had indeed been urging them to act, and Manager Zhu was well aware of it.

However, what the members of the Fallen Immortal Society truly obeyed was never doctrine or orders—it was their own desires.

That was the very foundation upon which the Fallen Immortal Society existed.

Now that his appetite had greatly increased, wasn’t staying here a form of cultivation in itself?

Feeling his cultivation steadily rising, Manager Zhu suddenly understood.

Boss Lu had helped bring customers to his casino, provided him with delicious food, and even improved his cultivation.

Boss Lu really was a good person.

“No rush. I’ll finish eating first.”

Manager Zhu replied while standing on tiptoe to count how many people were still ahead of him in line.

If this had happened in the past, he would have long since hacked apart those annoying people blocking his way.

But now, Manager Zhu patiently waited in line.

He didn’t want to frighten the little skewer vendor with a single slash.

Once his appetite was completely satisfied, he planned to have a heart-to-heart talk with the little boss so they could become one happy family from then on.

【Mission Progress: 200/200】

【Congratulations, Host. The mission has been completed perfectly. Rewards have been distributed.】

Lu Wu, who was still rolling up her sleeves and busily boiling skewers, paused when she heard the system notification.

A warm current suddenly appeared within her meridians.

She felt as if she had overeaten. Her meridians continuously expanded, becoming thicker, tougher, and capable of containing more spiritual energy.

Her small dantian transformed into a pond.

At the bottom of that pond rested several droplets of liquefied spiritual energy.

The liquefaction of spiritual energy was the hallmark of entering the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Without taking a Foundation Establishment Pill and without experiencing the agony everyone talked about, the barrier between Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment opened effortlessly.

Lu Wu’s breakthrough was as natural as water flowing downhill.

Early Foundation Establishment Realm.

Under the nourishment of spiritual energy, her body’s strength increased significantly.

She could probably serve another hundred customers without a problem.

Looking at her stall, which was nearly sold out, Lu Wu secretly bragged to herself.

“Awesome!”

Feeling the changes in her body, bubbles of happiness rose in her heart.

Her ears became sharper, her eyes clearer.

That phrase perfectly described her current state.

With a glance, she could see the satisfied expressions of customers enjoying their food, the anxious faces of those still waiting in line, and nearly the entirety of Free-and-Easy Street.

The sensation was simply wonderful.

No wonder everyone dreamed of cultivating and becoming immortals.

“Boss Lu, my skewers…”

A customer timidly reminded her.

Lu Wu snapped out of her wandering thoughts and glanced into the pot.

The peppercorn-spiced skewers were ready.

She fished them out, packaged them, and moved on to the next customer.

As for the lottery draw, she would wait until after closing the stall and try her luck then.

The food she made with care and dedication always conquered people’s hearts with ease.

Business at Lu Wu’s stall remained smooth tonight.

Even after completing the mission, she continued serving customers as usual and received a one-hundred-percent satisfaction rate.

After finishing the last skewer, Wang Xie stared at the remaining broth at the bottom of his bowl before tilting his head back and drinking it all.

Blazing heat surged through his chest, bringing an overwhelming sensory high.

He couldn’t remember how many portions of skewers he had eaten tonight.

Yet it still wasn’t enough.

Unfortunately, Boss Lu had completely run out of ingredients and was already cleaning up her stall.

“How about we come back tomorrow for another round?”

One of his brothers rubbed his hands together and looked at Wang Xie expectantly.

He was deeply grateful for the food expedition Wang Xie had organized.

This adventure had been incredibly rewarding.

Wait…

Why had they come out on this adventure in the first place?

The question suddenly puzzled him.

Seeing his companion’s thoughtful expression, Wang Xie’s face stiffened.

His expression changed as he forcefully pulled himself away from the allure of the food.

He turned toward the casino entrance with the determination of a man marching into a mountain of blades and a sea of flames.

“Let’s go… It’s time for us to act.”

He spoke in a low voice.

Benefactor, this time I’m really here to save you!

“Act? Act on what?”

A voice suddenly sounded beside his ear.

“To save my benefactor.”

Wang Xie answered casually before realizing the voice sounded unfamiliar.

Not good.

Someone had discovered their plan.

Kill them to silence them. Eliminate all traces.

A flood of sinister thoughts flashed through Wang Xie’s mind as he launched an attack.

Spiritual energy blasted toward the newcomer’s face.

But the moment he saw who it was, he abruptly stopped.

The sudden reversal of spiritual energy caused him to cough up a mouthful of blood.

Clutching his chest, Wang Xie stared at the completely unharmed person before him, feeling dizzy.

Why was his benefactor outside already?

His rescue operation hadn’t even started yet.

“Benefactor!”

He shouted and carefully examined Yang Jiang before confirming that he was truly fine.

“The benefactor you’re talking about is me?”

Yang Jiang was equally confused.

Why would he need rescuing?

After a full day and two nights undercover, he had already figured out how the entire casino operated.

The highest-ranking figure was Manager Zhu.

Below him were the brothers Tian Shou, the insect tamers.

The insects were Tian Shou’s method of controlling gamblers.

Yang Jiang hadn’t discovered a way to remove the insects.

However, he had learned that the skewers could awaken the minds of those parasitized by them.

To avoid alerting the enemy, he refrained from contacting other gamblers.

Instead, after learning the casino’s layout, he quietly withdrew.

The ultimate secret of undercover work:

When you encounter something you can’t handle, call for reinforcements. Fighting alone is something only fools do.

So he had come out to find help.

He just happened to spot Wang Xie and thought he’d say hello.

After comparing notes, Yang Jiang finally learned that Wang Xie had assumed he stayed behind as a sacrifice made for his sake.

“I’m really not that noble.”

It was all just a misunderstanding.

He had simply wanted to stop Wang Xie from ruining his undercover operation.

Faced with Wang Xie’s stubborn gaze, Yang Jiang could only accept his gratitude.

“Everything settled now?”

Zeng Si looked at the two chatting happily.

“It’s getting late. My wife and child are still waiting for me at home. Since everything’s fine, I’ll head back first.”

He still needed to bring food home for his wife.

His face was filled with tender affection.

“Get lost!”

Freed from his worries, Wang Xie rolled his eyes and cursed at his friend for showing off his family life.

“Hehe!”

Grinning broadly, Zeng Si waved goodbye and left.

The others dispersed as well.

And thus, the adventure team that had never actually begun its adventure was disbanded on the spot.

In the alley, the remaining customers also gradually departed.

Only the lingering aroma of food remained, drifting through the air.

Many customers took deep breaths, trying to preserve the scent in their memories.

Having eaten his fill, Manager Zhu returned to the casino with Tian Shou.

Mixed among the customers, a certain Mr. Cang pinched his fingers in calculation.

“Three days from now, we close the net.”

Thanks to Lu Wu’s appearance, everything had progressed smoothly.

Many members of the Fallen Immortal Society had gone throughout Hong’an City tonight to spread messages.

A major operation was about to begin.

As for him, he had already arranged for people to monitor them.

He was simply waiting for the opportunity to uproot all of their hideouts in one sweep.

Cang Heguang concealed himself and followed behind Lu Wu.

Watching her chat casually with a bird and a dog on her way back to the city, he revealed a ferocious smile.

With a casual wave of his hand, several individuals secretly watching Lu Wu with ill intentions instantly turned into piles of ash.

Killing without shedding blood.

And conveniently scattering the ashes afterward as well.

As long as Little Friend Lu remained in Hong’an City, her safety would be under his protection.

Bodyguard Cang hid his achievements and fame.
