This time, no one showed the same mocking expression as before.

A few of them even nodded slightly to express their approval.

Zhou Chang and Qin Han were among them, as well as the young female Junior Ruan.

Within a short period of time, nearly half of the people in the team began to change their view of Fang Yuan.

It was obvious that his three victories in three battles had left a deep impression in everyone’s hearts.

After that, Gu Tianging used the excuse of hunting to leave the place and did not spar with Fang Yuan.

To others, this behavior was no different from admitting defeat.

But Gu Tianqing had no other way.

He could not win!

n the same realm, what mattered was the strength of spirit essence and the quality of the Gu worms!

His main battle Gu were only four Silver Gu. Fang Yuan could easily take out three Gold quality Gu worms.

ot to mention that this leader also had a rank four Gu worm, or even Platinum Gu that could only be subdued by a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

n front of such absolute strength, using an excuse to leave was the best choice.

Admitting defeat without speaking was better than getting beaten up.

Gu Tianqing did not want to become a backdrop for Fang Yuan’s fame.

He had only been the number one of the younger generation for a few years, and he had not enjoyed enough of everyone’s flattery.

“Forget it, after all, 1 am participating in the Gu Dao convention. What I am fighting for is the sect’s face, what harm is there in making way?”

Gu Tianqing muttered to himself, finding comfort in his heart.

In the afternoon, the convoy set off again.

Gu Tianqing took the initiative to ask. “Senior Fang, can we travel a bit slower? I don’t think our bodies can endure the pain of the bumpy road. Don’t let it affect our condition.”

These words did not have any intention of going against Fang Yuan. It was as if he had admitted defeat.

Fang Yuan had the intention of not hitting the smiling person, so he agreed to his request, letting the light chasing thunder tiger travel at half its speed.

“The Gu Immortal Sect is quite a distance away from capital. With our current speed, I am afraid we will be delayed, so I will slowly increase my speed later. It is inevitable for us to suffer, everyone should get used to

it.”

The other seven disciples expressed their understanding, replying one after another.

After that, Fang Yuan continued to enter closed door cultivation.

He held a copy of ‘The History And Evolution Of The Human Race’s Vital Gu Refinement’ and read it carefully.

The reading took a few days.

Fang Yuan immersed himself in it and studied it wholeheartedly. He did not even go out to eat. He only took a few mouthfuls of dry rations with him.

Along the way, he encountered many demon beasts and Gu worms blocking the way, but he let the other team members handle them.

To phrase it nicely, they trained their cooperative fighting ability.

The results did not disappoint Fang Yuan.

Eight people killed four demon beasts in total. All of them were at the third or fourth layer of the Enlightenment Realm.

For Gu masters of similar realms, this was already very good.

When they arrived outside the capital, the convoy was stopped by someone.

Qin Han went forward to ask, and after some communication, he understood that they were sent by the empire to receive the carriages from various sects.

After revealing their identities, the person’s tone became much more respectful, leading them to a large compound.

Fang Yuan led the disciples out of the carriage, stretching his body.

The guard handed a token to Fang Yuan.

“This is proof of seniors’ participation. When the Gu Dao convention starts, use this to enter. The fourth floor will be the residence for the Gu Immortal Sect. If you have any needs, you can mention it to the consul

here, he will send someone to deal with it immediately.”

“Thank you.”

Fang Yuan nodded slightly, sending a palm-sized primeval stone over.

“It is my duty, Senior, you don’t have to do this.”

The guard cupped his fists but did not accept it, continuing, “I still have to welcome the other sects, there are many things to do, so I will not accompany you.”

Fang Yuan played with the primeval stone, watching him leave quietly.

This person was righteous. He did not know if the personal guards in the empire were all like this.

Without much thought, Fang Yuan brought everyone upstairs.

The journey was really tiring. No one had slept well, and they urgently needed a good rest.

This courtyard had a mouth-shaped structure. There were ten rooms on the first floor, and a total of four floors.

He did not know which sects were on the other floors.

Just as he was thinking about this, he came to the corner of the third floor and met another group of people.

The leader of the group looked at Fang Yuan, and his gaze shifted and landed on a person beside him.

“Yo, isn’t it Gu Tianqing?”

The person laughed lightly. “You have been in the inner sect of the Gu Immortal Sect for four years, how come you did not even get the position of leader in the Gu Dao convention?”

“It’s you?”

Gu Tianqing seemed to have some enmity with this person, and his expression was very bad. He could not help but retort when he heard this. “This is Gu Zhenren’s personal disciple. His strength is outstanding, and he

can be said to have caught up from behind. Even I have to call him senior.”

“Oh?” The other party laughed loudly. “Then wouldn’t you have to hand over your position as the number one? Gu Tianqing, are you willing?”

Fang Yuan frowned and suddenly said, “Who are you to sow discord within our sect? Are you looking for a fight?”

“Fang Yuan, right, I know you, ranked 87th on the Prodigy Roll.”

The other party stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Fang Yuan. “Forget about fighting. Just wait until the Gu Dao convention is over, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”

Saying so, he left with his team members, as if he wanted to mock Gu Tianqing.

Gu Tianqing looked at Fang Yuan with a gaze filled with jealousy and hatred, and without saying anything, he went upstairs.

It seemed that those people were trying to stir up trouble.

Fang Yuan was silent.

The other party was trying to stir up trouble but was not willing to accept the challenge. It was obvious that they wanted to use this opportunity to stir up the conflict between Gu Tianqing and himself, causing internal

strife.

Their intentions were very straightforward. They wanted to use this to weaken the unity of the Gu Immortal Sect as a whole, causing them to perform abnormally in the Gu Dao convention.

After all, the sects that came here were all potential opponents. The Gu Immortal Sect could be considered the favorite to win this Gu Dao convention, and as the top seed, it was natural for many people to target

them.

Similar things might happen in the future.

He had to think of a way to get closer to everyone.

What should he do…

Fang Yuan thought quickly.

Or should he follow Li Tongzhou’s example and treat them to drinks?

No, no, there were female disciples too…

They should have a meal together!

After all, they were from the same sect, and the convention was about to start. If they had a heart to heart about the pros and cons, they might be able to unite and face the outside world.

Then, he looked at the remaining seven disciples.

“Everyone has been tired for a few days. Go find your own rooms and rest. Come out and gather at night.”

Zhou Chang, Qin Han, and Junior Ruan were the first to respond.

Gu Yuange was the fourth and nodded.

The other male disciple also expressed that there was no problem.

The remaining two introverted female disciples, who were silent, naturally did not have any objections.

Thus, everyone went upstairs and returned to their rooms.

The seven of them quickly fell asleep.

Only Fang Yuan put down his things, opened the door and walked out of the courtyard.

He planned to find Wan Qian and tell her about the Gu Dao convention.

At the same time, he asked himself some questions regarding Vital Gu..
