Seven days later, Fang Ling slowly opened his eyes.
The medicinal power of the Vajra Bodhi Pill had been completely refined by him.
His physical strength had doubled, reaching an extremely powerful realm.
He already possessed the Chaos Sacred Body, enhanced by an undying heart, making his physical growth incomparable to ordinary beings.
Moreover, since descending the mountain, he had devoured the life essence of many creatures, making his body even more formidable.
Thus, on this foundation, doubling his strength again had reached a level that shouldn’t exist in this realm.
“If I were to face Jin Buhuan in my current state,”
“Even if I stood still and let him attack, it would be hard for him to hurt me.”
The terrifying physical strength, coupled with his heaven-defying recovery ability,
The speed at which Jin Buhuan could inflict damage on him might not even match the speed at which his body self-repairs.
“Hmm? Why is she here?!” Suddenly, he looked towards the western courtyard in surprise, sensing a familiar presence.
…
In a guest room in the western courtyard.
Yun Shuiqing sat cross-legged on the bed, her face looking grim as she rested and adjusted her breath.
Suddenly, she seemed to sense something and abruptly opened her eyes.
Seeing Fang Ling’s figure appear in front of the bed, she was overjoyed.
She quickly moved to the bedside, put on her boots, walked to him, and knelt on one knee: “Greetings, Sect Master!”
Fang Ling nodded lightly and immediately asked, “Why is your aura somewhat chaotic? How did you get injured?”
“Sect Master, I am incompetent and failed to complete the task you assigned…”
“What exactly happened? Where are the others?” Fang Ling asked in a deep voice.
“After leaving Heaven Severing Mountain that day, we split up to recruit old members and call upon our sect friends,” Yun Shuiqing explained in detail.
“Because I had a good relationship with Eagle Lord, I took the initiative to find her.”
“She is extremely proud. After the death of Sect Master Mo, the Tianluo Sect was leaderless and fell apart.”
“She took her people and established her own sect, the Flying Eagle Sect.”
“With her profound cultivation and formidable methods, she developed the Flying Eagle Sect into a major sect within just two hundred years.”
“But she acts very low-key, and the Flying Eagle Sect rarely involves itself in the South Sun Kingdom’s cultivation world, so it’s little known.”
“I knew she was nostalgic, hoping to one day return to the Tianluo Sect, so I was very confident about this trip.”
“But when I found her and explained the situation, she refused.”
“I was very surprised and unwilling to give up, so I stayed near the Flying Eagle Sect to try to persuade her a few more times.”
“But I soon discovered the reason for Eagle Lord’s firm refusal. Her Flying Eagle Sect had somehow gotten into conflict with the Liuhe Sect.”
“The Liuhe Sect is very powerful, a top-tier sect in the South Sun Kingdom.”
“At its peak, the Liuhe Sect’s strength could rank in the top five in the South Sun Kingdom.”
“That’s when I realized that Eagle Lord didn’t want to bring her troubles into our sect.”
“Don’t look at how our Tianluo Sect fell apart after Sect Master Mo’s death.”
“But once an external enemy appears, we are still very loyal.”
“I informed Tiger Lord and the others about the situation, and they immediately led the sect members to aid the Flying Eagle Sect.”
“We all thought we could quickly deal with the Liuhe Sect and then meet up with you in Dragon City.”
“But to our surprise, the Liuhe Sect had mysterious backing.”
“After several fierce battles, not only did we fail to deal with the Liuhe Sect, but we also suffered heavy losses.”
“Originally, we had 370,000 sect members, but by the time I escaped from the Flying Eagle Sect to seek help, only 150,000 were left…”
“Python Lord and the Water and Fire Guards were seriously injured, and Master Qingmu was assassinated in the camp.”
“Jin Facai, who had just rejoined the sect, and his business association were also attacked.”
“Not only were their assets plundered, but they also lost their lives…”
After listening, Fang Ling finally understood why they had been delayed for so long.
The deaths of the Gold and Wood Guards made him feel regretful.
“You should have come to me earlier,” he said.
Yun Shuiqing felt ashamed. At first, they were full of confidence, but by the time they realized the situation, it was already too late.
She had risked her life to break through the Liuhe Sect’s encirclement.
After arriving in Dragon City and investigating, she learned that Fang Ling was at the Bai residence.
But when she arrived, Fang Ling was still in seclusion, so she didn’t dare to disturb him and stayed there.
“When did you arrive?” Fang Ling asked again.
“At dusk yesterday,” Yun Shuiqing replied.
“Follow me. We’ll find reinforcements and set off immediately to support them,” Fang Ling said in a deep voice.
“Yes!” Yun Shuiqing responded, obediently following him.
Fang Ling led her out of the room, then turned left and right, arriving at Dou Qin’s door.
He knocked lightly a few times, and Dou Qin’s disciple opened the door.
Shi Xiaobi blinked curiously at Yun Shuiqing behind Fang Ling.
“Young Master Fang!” Dou Qin greeted him with a graceful salute.
She also noticed Yun Shuiqing standing behind Fang Ling.
Surprised, she said, “Oh? Sister Yun, long time no see!”
Being from the South Sun Kingdom, it was not surprising that they knew each other.
Yun Shuiqing felt it was quite a coincidence that Fang Ling had come to find her.
“Sister Dou, long time no see!” She also smiled.
When they were younger, Yun Shuiqing had saved Dou Qin once.
Later, Dou Qin had helped Yun Shuiqing heal several times.
After several exchanges, they had built a friendship.
But later, because Yun Shuiqing joined the Tianluo Sect, they had not seen each other.
The Tianluo Sect was considered a Demon Sect in the South Sun Kingdom, while Dou Qin’s Medical Immortal Valley was a legitimate royal faction, belonging to the righteous path.
They had stopped seeing and contacting each other to avoid affecting each other.
“Since you two are old acquaintances, there’s no need to waste time.”
“Heal on the way!”
Fang Ling said, turning to the courtyard and whistling. The Nether Beast immediately rushed over.
He leaped onto the Nether Beast’s back and looked at Dou Qin and Yun Shuiqing.
Dou Qin and Yun Shuiqing exchanged a glance and followed.
“My mount runs very fast, hold on tight,” Fang Ling said.
“Alright!” The two women responded, steadying themselves.
Just as Fang Ling was about to set off, Bai Jiang hurried over.
“Sect Master Fang, wait!” Bai Jiang shouted.
“The Bai family is willing to lend a hand to your sect!”
“My second brother is already gathering people, and we’ll set off soon.”
After Yun Shuiqing arrived yesterday, Bai Jiang naturally learned of Fang Ling’s current identity.
Knowing that Fang Ling was now the Sect Master of the Tianluo Sect, he was greatly shocked.
The Bai family’s intelligence system was very developed, and he knew what had happened recently.
So he and his brother Bai Bo met with the ancestor overnight to discuss the matter.
They unanimously agreed that they should help at this time and began preparations overnight.
“Thank you, Bai family!” Fang Ling cupped his hands in thanks to Bai Jiang.
Although he didn’t need the Bai family’s help, he wouldn’t refuse to make a friend.
Yun Shuiqing had been worried that Fang Ling alone might not be able to turn the tide.
But hearing that the Bai family was willing to help, she felt a bit more relieved.
“The situation is urgent, so I’ll go ahead!”
Fang Ling said, and the Nether Beast ran towards the sky, disappearing from sight…
