"This isn't your style."
At this point, he paused and asked, "Also, you seem a bit weak. Did something unexpected happen?"
Fang Ze replied, "Yes, Father. When I attempted to assassinate Fang Ze, I was caught off guard by him. He turned one of my trusted aides and learned my whereabouts, then brought experts to ambush me."
"I fought a fierce battle with the experts he brought, was outmatched, and had to self-destruct my Divine Soul to escape."
Upon hearing Fang Ze's words, Yuan Gu lightly tapped the armrest with his bony hand and asked, "Escape? Fang Ze didn't use the God-Imprisoning Method?"
Fang Ze answered as taught by Dahei Jialuo, "I'm not sure."
"Logically, if he made a move against me, he should have had something up his sleeve. But he didn't. That's a point of suspicion."
"However, after I self-destructed, I did manage to escape."
