"I'll fulfill your request, and I'll spare your life …"
Qin Fang responded with a faint smile on his face, and the progress bar of the Soul Manipulation skill was still being read … Since he had chosen to do it, there was absolutely no reason to give up.
"But, but …"
Hearing that he could not die, Steve felt a little relieved, but he soon felt that something was wrong. Qin Fang seemed to have something that he did not say … and this was what made him more uneasy.
"No buts!"
However, Qin Fang stopped him directly, and shouted sternly, "I've given you a chance. If you don't want to seize it, I don't mind killing you with a sword … In this way, you can save me some unnecessary troubles!"
"No, no, no!
I didn't mean that … "
Steve naturally didn't want to die, otherwise, he wouldn't have betrayed the Freemasonry so thoroughly … There was a chance to live, and he certainly wasn't willing to give it up. At this time, he was a lot more honest.
Now, the person who decided his fate was no longer himself, but Qin Fang.
He didn't have too many bargaining chips. If he blindly insisted and angered Qin Fang, then his little thought and hope might completely turn into a pile of bubbles in an instant. This was not what he wanted.
"It's best that you don't …"
Qin Fang snorted coldly. His tone and expression were much worse than before, which made Steve feel less resistant. His eyes darted around, seeming to be worried and afraid …
However, he might not have thought that Qin Fang would take this opportunity to accelerate the reading speed of the progress bar.

When the progress bar finished reading, Steve seemed to suddenly feel something. His eyes widened, and he looked at Qin Fang incredulously. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something … But he didn't have the chance. It seemed that a mysterious and abstruse force had entered the depths of his mind, and his consciousness was instantly lost!
This state lasted for about half a minute, and Steve's eyes gradually became clear. He looked at Qin Fang, then bowed slightly and said very respectfully, "Master …"
The Soul Manipulation skill was successfully cast, and the Freemasonry's Ace of Diamonds Steve and Deron became another soul slave of Qin Fang …
"En!"
Qin Fang nodded, and carefully studied Steve's body. In the future, there would be a special enchantment remaining in his body …
In fact, this enchantment had always existed, but the two brothers had created a small loophole, allowing Steve to speak of some secrets more freely without triggering the self-destruction system of the enchantment.
Qin Fang didn't touch this taboo enchantment, and let it remain there. He didn't even deliberately check if there were other secrets hidden in Steve's heart … The Soul Manipulation skill was successful, so it was impossible for Steve to betray him.
The existence of this enchantment might have some other special uses …
For example …
"You deliberately returned to the Freemasonry. As for what you want to say, I'll explain it to you in detail …"
Qin Fang didn't intend to let the Ace of Diamonds Steve and Deron stay by his side. Instead, he intended to let him return to the Freemasonry. He would even let Steve redeem himself by meritorious service, and reverse the extremely unfavorable consequences caused by this failure.
Although they were both soul slaves, Steve was obviously not the same as Old Bill …
Old Bill was a deacon in New York. Although his position was prominent, the level of contact he had was a little lower. Even if Qin Fang had a way to support him to the position of one of the Four Great Emissaries, he needed time to straighten out the power and work in his hands. Secondly, his qualifications were too shallow, and there was no way for him to come into contact with the Freemasonry's too secretive and core people and things.
Steve was different. He had firmly sat in the position of Ace of Diamonds for more than twenty years. The power in his hands had long been deeply rooted, and he also had a brother who was a Temple Emissary. Although he couldn't directly participate in some of the secrets of the Freemasonry's core, he could still inquire about them.
Even if Steve might lose the position of one of the Four Great Emissaries, as long as his brother was still alive, then his value would never be small …
Then, Qin Fang still had a very important task for him …
What task?
A trap!
To be more precise, it was to trap Qin Fang's enemy … the Blood Demon Sect!
Decades ago, after the great war between the good and the evil, the Demon Sect went overseas and slowly developed on a global scale … In the process, they would inevitably come into contact with the powerful Freemasonry, and there would definitely be considerable conflicts between them.
However, they had always maintained peace for so many years. It could be seen that the higher-ups of both sides were deliberately controlling the situation. There were small frictions, but large conflicts were not allowed …
However, if this balance was accidentally broken, then things might be different!
The current Blood Demon Sect, due to the existence of the Blood Emperor, had already become the leading sect of this generation of the Demon Sect. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the Blood Demon Sect represented the entire Demon Sect …
And the people of the Blood Demon Sect suddenly took action and wiped out two of the Four Great Emissaries … If the Freemasonry still didn't have any reaction, then it would be very difficult for the Freemasonry to continue existing. A conflict between both sides was inevitable!
This was the result that Qin Fang wanted, so he left Steve behind and let him be the fuse …
If it succeeded, then Qin Fang would naturally be full of joy!
If it failed, then only death awaited Steve, but it wouldn't involve Qin Fang. At most, he would just waste a soul slave, and Qin Fang wouldn't lose anything … He could also clean up a trouble for Qin Fang while he was at it.
He didn't dare. Steve's special identity meant that his chances of success might be higher …
"Master, then I'll …"
After simply learning about the next opportunity of action from Qin Fang, Steve also sorted out his mind before asking.
"You do what you need to do …"
However, Qin Fang pointed at the wharf not far away from this passageway and asked Steve to do what he should do.
Steve didn't hesitate. After agreeing on a contact method with Qin Fang, he immediately left this secret passage and went straight to the dock and the private yacht … He was already Qin Fang's soul slave, so he didn't need to worry about betrayal. As for whether the follow-up plan would succeed, it would depend on luck.
As for Qin Fang, he changed his appearance and quietly left this place, returning to his new villa …
With such a big incident happening in Steve's manor, the police and even the military might directly intervene. They might even investigate or question the neighbors of Steve's manor. Qin Fang's identity was a little strange, so it was naturally better not to expose any bigger flaws.
Just as Qin Fang guessed, not long after he returned to the villa, some police came to his new villa … Of course, these police were blocked outside by Qin Fang's housekeeper.
"What's going on?"
With such a commotion, Qin Fang changed into pajamas and walked out of the room upstairs. His face was still a little sleepy and tired, and he roared very discontentedly … As for whether he was talking about the housekeeper or the police, it was up to them to guess.
"Sir, these police are here to investigate some things, and they will be done soon …"
It had to be said that these professional housekeepers were quite professional. If they were in Long Province, these police would have already roared and stomped their feet, but these police in Los Angeles were all polite, whether it was to Qin Fang or the housekeeper.
The national conditions were different, so were the statuses.
Those who lived in Beverly Hills were either rich or noble, and they were all quite influential people. If they really made a fuss, perhaps these people would directly hire a group of lawyers to sue the Los Angeles Police Department, which would be quite a troublesome matter.
Perhaps there were cases of officials in the system protecting each other in China, but there was no such situation here …
"What the hell is going on?"
Qin Fang originally planned to go back to rest, but he seemed to think of something and couldn't help but ask.
"It seems that something happened at Steve's Manor next door. We are closer to there, so the police routinely came to check and ask …"
The housekeeper answered respectfully, and the police on the side nodded in agreement.
"Something happened at Steve's Manor?"
Qin Fang seemed to be very surprised, and then immediately looked at the police curiously. "Mr. Steve is a world-class director and one of my favorite directors. Did anything happen to him?"
"At present, the case is still under investigation. Forgive us for not being able to disclose …"
Unfortunately, the police wouldn't answer this question.
They also knew that Qin Fang, who lived here, might have a very high status, so they responded politely.
"I hope nothing happened to him. Otherwise, I will have one less director I like …"
Qin Fang seemed to be quite worried, whispered in a low voice, and turned to go upstairs.
The police downstairs, under the housekeeper's response, finished the statement and quickly left … Such a matter was covered up by Qin Fang, and he also found that the police weren't particularly concerned about this case.
But no matter what, Qin Fang's purpose in coming to Los Angeles was officially completed … Although Steve, the A of Diamonds, didn't die, he couldn't affect Old Bill's ascension to the A of Hearts position.
As for the other candidates, because they were scattered, Qin Fang couldn't take care of them for the time being. There was one more person he had to deal with in advance …
