High Martial Arts Start with Ant Talent Fusion

Fang Fan met City Lord Gu Ming inside the mansion. Gu Ming was looking at the intelligence report that had been sent to him.

The information above seemed to give him a bad feeling.

"Lord City Lord."

After exchanging a few pleasantries with the city lord, Fang Fan inquired about the two people he had met earlier.

"You mean them? They're the pride of Jianghai City, here to report intelligence to me. Don't worry about them."

Gu Cheng put the previous events behind him. He had originally planned to tell Fang Fan some things, but the news made him have to reconsider.

"My sister is already a Grandmaster, and she even went to the Four Symbols Secret Realm?"

Fang Fan was very surprised to hear this. He never expected that after he had been in a coma for four months, his sister had become a Grandmaster. He remembered that he was a Martial Master before he fell into a coma.

In just four months, his progress was even faster than mine.

The thing inside my sister's body is so terrifying, but it didn't seem to be very useful before. Could it be that it's been preparing a powerful attack?

"She's only a Grandmaster; is it really appropriate for her to go to the Four Symbols Secret Realm?"

Fang Fan asked, somewhat puzzled, since only the generals of the Four Symbols Secret Realm could go there.

"You don't need to worry about these things."

"Your sister Fang Ling's talent is even stronger than yours. She has another opportunity in the Four Symbols Secret Realm this time. If she succeeds, her importance will even surpass that of me, the city lord of Jianghai City."

"You, as the older brother, are about to be surpassed."

Gu Ming said with great interest, which surprised Fang Fan. Was his sister really that capable? It seemed that he, as her older brother, could no longer be her protector.

These were just Fang Fan's daydreams. The stronger his sister became, the more at ease he felt. But what he truly cared about was Fang Ling's safety, because great opportunities often conceal great dangers.

"You don't need to worry about Fang Ling's safety. There are so many old guys there; they can't even protect a little girl, can they?"

Gu Ming noticed Fang Fan's worry.

"Alright, you can go back now if there's nothing else."

"You've missed a lot these past four months. Make good use of the time you have left to improve your cultivation. I estimate that a great battle is coming soon."

Gu Ming didn't say much, but Fang Fan was a little puzzled after hearing it. Was he really going to tell him all this?

He could find out these things with just a little inquiry; it wasn't worth the city lord sending him all this way.

Therefore, Fang Fan suspected that the city lord's condition was very likely related to the slight worry he had seen on the city lord's face earlier.

Adding to the two people he had seen earlier, he had a bad feeling and, disregarding everything else, asked.

"My lord, for some reason, since I woke up, I have felt a sense of crisis, which is very puzzling to me."

"During the four months I was in a coma, did something serious happen?"

After hearing Fang Fan's words, Gu Ming was a little puzzled and hurriedly checked Fang Fan's body, but there was nothing wrong with him. On the contrary, he was in very good condition and did not look like someone who had been in a coma for four months.

While feeling relieved, I also felt somewhat powerless. After some thought, I finally spoke up.

"Judging from your current strength, you are now the second strongest in Jianghai City. There are some things I should tell you."

"But you must never tell anyone what I'm about to say."

Gu Ming spread his aura to ensure no one was eavesdropping before slowly speaking.

"A demon spy has appeared in the human world!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Fan was greatly shocked, a look of astonishment appearing in his eyes. It was impossible for spies not to exist, but for Gu Ming to take such a serious stance meant that the situation was already very grave.

Could it be...?

"This kind of thing was discovered by a town general named Yan Tu, who came from Baiyun City."

Yama...

This matter actually involved Yan Tu. He had just woken up and hadn't had time to receive the message from Yan Tu yet.

"He unexpectedly discovered a new type of demonic beast that could possess a human's soul in such a way that outsiders could not detect it at all."

"And this kind of demonic beast is called the Heart Demon!"

"Heart Demon!"

Fang Fan was somewhat surprised, not expecting the Heart Demon to reappear, especially in Baiyun City. He was not unfamiliar with this kind of thing, because he had one suppressed in his soul sea.

However, his situation was somewhat special, and he couldn't explain it to Gu Ming. He continued listening with a puzzled look on his face.

The more he listened, the more astonished he became. The situation of the Heart Demon was similar to what he had imagined, and even after the news spread, when a human bigwig took action, the Heart Demon's disguise could not be seen through.

Of course, this does not mean there is no way. After many experiments, there is only one feasible method, which is to delve into the soul and cut off a part of the soul, so as to find out whether it is a heart demon in disguise.

However, the price is too high. Not to mention the immense pain, after a portion of the soul is severed, cultivation and talent will inevitably be affected.

Countless people in the human world have already been possessed by demons, but if everyone has to do this, then the entire human race will not be far from extinction.

"Right now, the most crucial thing is to find a way to identify the Heart Demon."

"At present, only the city lord and a few close confidants know about this situation."

"If this gets out, the public will definitely be affected, and things will fall into chaos."

"Fang Fan, I'm telling you about this situation just to give you a general idea. The situation is still unclear, so don't trust anyone too easily."

"Even me."

Gu Ming knew that once the news of the Heart Demon spread, it would be a huge blow to human trust, and it was very likely that humanity would never be able to recover from this blow.

"You can't even trust the City Lord?"

Fang Fan's mind was in turmoil, but he still asked with some unease on his face.

"right."

"I don't even know if you're still Fang Fan."

This was what Gu Ming had been hesitating about. He was considering whether or not to tell Fang Fan some things. If Fang Fan was a Heart Demon, then he would probably know this better than anyone else, so there was no harm in telling him.

"Isn't there any other way to identify a heart demon besides that method?"

"No!"

"Alright, Fang Fan, you can go back now."

"This matter must not be revealed to anyone."

"Report to me if there are any special circumstances. Remember to seize the time. Only strength truly belongs to you."

After Gu Ming finished speaking, he seemed to have aged even more. This matter had too great an impact, and it was simply beyond the ability of a mere city lord like him to resolve.

"What's up? Is there something else?"

Gu Ming looked at Fang Fan, who hadn't left yet, and asked him with some confusion, thinking that the incident had shocked him too much, so he comforted him.

"You don't need to worry too much. Although there may be demons around, it's still a possibility, and the probability is very small."

Fang Fan's eyes revealed determination; he seemed to have made a decision.

"Lord City Lord, what if I told you I can distinguish the heart demon?"
