Chapter 1089
Asha'ruya
Moreover, the Bell Tower Magicians Association can be said to be the largest association covering the entire Shenzhou region.
"Is this the territory of the Ancient Capital Mage Association? The aura of the dead here is really strong."
As vampires who had broken through to the Lesser Monarch level, Liu Xian and Liu Ru could both smell the thick aura of necromancy energy permeating the air.
"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, the demon overlord here is a thousand-year-old monarch. If he can successfully condense his spirit, his strength should be at the Supreme Monarch level."
Not long after.
Fu Ye, accompanied by Liu Ru and Liu Xian, strolled leisurely through the slightly crowded square.
The trio's combination was exceptionally striking.
Fu Ye has a calm and profound temperament, and his appearance is also exceptionally good.
Although Liu Ru and Liu Xian behind them were dressed as maids, their stunningly beautiful faces and near-perfect figures made it hard for those around them to look away.
But the chilling aura they inadvertently exuded caused the surrounding crowd to instinctively make way for them.
"Teacher Fu Ye, over here!"
A surprised voice rang out.
He Yu saw Fu Ye from afar and quickly waved to him.
Standing beside her was Mo Fan, who looked travel-worn and equally nervous.
When Mo Fan saw that the person He Yu was greeting was actually Fu Ye, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his face was filled with shock.
"Fu Ye?! What's he doing here? He Yu... she even invited him?!"
Mo Fan's brain was working at lightning speed.
He looked at He Yu, his eyes questioning.
He Yu noticed Mo Fan's gaze, and a hint of panic and apology flashed across her face as she quickly explained in a low voice.
"Mo Fan, I'm sorry... I was too anxious before, and I contacted Teacher Fu Ye on a whim... I didn't expect Mr. Fu to actually be willing to help."
Mo Fan took a deep breath, suppressing his suspicions.
Ever since Fu Ye began to suspect his identity, he had rarely spoken to him, and the other party seemed to have sensed his concerns, so he did not make a move against him.
But why is that? The other party already knows that the changes in him are too obvious, so why doesn't he attack him?
But in any case, Fu Ye's arrival here is definitely a huge help.
With him around, the chances of finding Zhang Xiaohou have undoubtedly increased significantly.
However, Mo Fan felt an invisible pressure when facing Fu Ye.
Fu Ye nodded to He Yu, ignoring Mo Fan.
"Is everyone here? When do we leave?"
"Almost there!"
He Yu quickly replied.
“We’ve joined a makeshift exploration team, led by a hunter mage who frequents the ancient capital. We’re going to delve into the area where Xiao Hou sent his last signal before he disappeared. The team is meeting up ahead, and I’ll take you there.”
Led by He Yu, the group walked through the crowd and arrived at a relatively open area on the other side of the square.
There were already about a dozen people gathered here, just as she had said, a mixed bag.
There were mages dressed in standard magic robes, as well as some well-equipped and sharp-eyed members of the Hunter's Alliance.
People gathered in twos and threes, talking in hushed tones. The atmosphere wasn't exactly harmonious, but basic order was maintained.
however.
As Fu Ye's gaze swept across the crowd, it landed on a figure in an inconspicuous corner.
It was a young girl, followed by a masked bodyguard in black, leaning against a mottled stone pillar.
She wore a uniquely designed exotic outfit, predominantly purple and black, with intricate and mysterious dark patterns embroidered on the light fabric. Her face was covered by a half-veil, revealing only a pair of eyes as clear and deep as amethyst, yet seemingly capable of seeing into one's heart.
She stood with her arms crossed, her posture seemingly languid and casual, yet subtly maintaining a sense of isolation from her surroundings.
Asharuya.
The name and its associated secret identity immediately came to mind for Fu Ye.
The adopted daughter of Saint Venteuil, and one of the candidates for goddess of the Parthenon.
A descendant of fallen angels from the dark dimension, and a top-tier intelligence broker who possesses countless secrets.
Almost at the same moment Fu Ye's gaze fell upon her, Asha's amethyst-like eyes seemed to sense something, piercing through the crowd and precisely meeting Fu Ye's gaze.
For an instant.
Asha'ruya felt as if the fallen angel bloodline within her had been pricked by an invisible needle.
A very faint yet incredibly clear shiver ran through me!
That wasn't fear of overwhelming power, but an instinctive warning of danger stemming from a higher level of power!
It was as if the man standing in front of him was not human, but a king-level demon walking among humans!
Asha's heart trembled, but she remained outwardly calm.
"Who is this man? His ability to hide is terrifying. If he hadn't been watching me, I would have completely ignored his presence."
“He is extremely dangerous! Compared to those old guys in the Parthenon, he feels more like an abyss that can devour everything at any moment.”
A fervent glint rose in Asha's eyes as she looked at Fu Ye, and a faint, intrigued smile curved her lips beneath the mask.
Instead of backing down, she slightly adjusted her posture to make herself more clearly visible to Fu Ye.
Just like Mo Fan's evaluation of her in the original work.
She's an extremely audacious and crazy woman.
Fu Ye naturally noticed the unusual movement of the fallen angel bloodline within Asha's body.
A knowing glint flashed in his eyes, and he immediately looked away, no longer paying attention.
Now that he has expanded his business to the Parthenon, he can try to contact her then.
The eyes of the Liu sisters, Liu Ru and Liu Xian, locked onto Asha Ruya in an instant.
Vampires are very sensitive to the aura of darkness, which made them immediately realize that this girl in purple and black was unusual.
"Sister, that girl with the veil... her aura is very strange."
"We only need to be vigilant; unless the master gives an order, we don't need to pay attention."
The two sisters exchanged a glance, then immediately regained their composure.
Mo Fan and He Yu were unaware of the brief exchange of glances.
They are finalizing the details of the departure with the leader of the temporary team.
Fu Ye's arrival clearly drew sidelong glances and whispers from many in the group.
His overly youthful appearance and demeanor, along with the two stunningly beautiful yet icy maids behind him, made him seem nothing like an ordinary adventurer or rescuer.
The team quickly assembled, and after a brief explanation and warning from the leading mage, they began their journey towards the wasteland outside the ancient capital, which was shrouded in an increasingly dense deathly aura.
Fu Ye, accompanied by Liu Ru and Liu Xian, naturally walked in the middle of the group, not standing out, and no one dared to approach them easily.
Mo Fan and He Yu followed closely behind them.
Asha'ruya silently fell to the back of the group, her amethyst-like eyes occasionally glancing at Fu Ye's back ahead, pondering something unknown to anyone.
