Secular Immortal of the Nine Realms Chapter 55: No Compassion in the Compassion Hall

“How could this be…” Qin Dong’s eyes lost their light, but he quickly snapped out of his daze and covered his mouth. I’d be dead meat if Fang Chen hears my voice!

Manager He of the Compassion Hall turned ghastly pale, as he had no idea what to do in this situation. He could only pray that the blind War God Fang would turn a blind eye to him as long as he remained silent.

“There’s no compassion in the Compassion Hall…” Fang Chen snorted.

He walked up to the gray-robed daoist and little nun to sever the ropes binding them.

Qin Dong took this secretly back away, only for the gray-robed daoist to notice him right away and holler, “Don’t even dream of running away!”

Qin Dong’s body stiffened up.

Manager He knew that he would have no chance to escape if he didn’t make a move now, so he immediately turned tail and fled without a care in the world.

However, soldiers suddenly rushed into the Compassion Hall. They were led by the vice-commander of West Tiger Barracks, You Longchang.

“General You, take them down,” Fang Chen ordered.

“Yes, young master,” You Longchang bitterly replied.

Without asking any questions, You Longchang marched in with his men to arrest Manager He and his lackeys. Those who fought back were killed on the spot.

The gray-robed daoist stared at Fang Chen in astonishment.

“War God Fang!” Fang Qingyao and his maid, upon release, rushed up to Fang Chen.

“Miss Fang, it seems like luck isn’t on your side.” Fang Chen chuckled.

Fang Qingyao sighed upon hearing those words, but she was more curious to know whether Fang Chen knew beforehand about the corruption happening in Compassion Hall.

“War God Fang, isn’t that Vice Minister Qin?” You Longchang suddenly exclaimed in surprise. He dragged the pale-faced Qin Dong before Fang Chen as he asked, “You even brought Vice Minister Qin along for this operation?”

Qin Dong cursed under his breath, but he knew it was impossible for him to slip away now. Thus, he composed himself and said, “I came here to pay a visit to the orphans and donate some money.”
