Chapter 27: Genius Junior

The more Li Tongzhou thought about it, the more he felt it was feasible. Suddenly, he felt a pain in his butt and was kicked by someone.

“Ouch, who kicked me!”

He turned his head and saw Fang Yuan’s harmless and handsome face.

“What are you thinking about?”

“Nothing… nothing.”

“Then let’s go, let’s head back first.”

Fang Yuan put the blood lotus into his storage space and waved his hand, calling the goshawk that was under the control of the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu over.

“Leaving already? Don’t you want to collect more herbs?”

Li Tongzhou was a bit surprised, “There is still some time before sunset. There are still many good quality herbs near the peak, we can exchange them for a lot of sect contribution.”

Fang Yuan took a look, and there were indeed many herbs that could be used for body refinement or even Foundation Establishment.

But to Gu worms that had already absorbed the essence of the medicinal bath twice, this quality was nothing.

Moreover, their locations were too scattered, and it was very difficult to gather them. It was a waste of time and effort.

Fang Yuan did not want to waste time on this, he might as well do a few more missions to earn primeval stones.

Thus, he casually said: “There are still four seniors. Since we have eaten the meat that is the blood lotus, we should at least give them some soup to drink.”

Li Tongzhou did not expect Fang Yuan to say such a thing.

In this world where everyone was selfish, Senior Fang could be said to be an anomaly in the cultivation world!

When the people around heard this, they immediately looked at Fang Yuan in a different light.

After experiencing this, the few of them could be considered to be acquainted.

After exchanging names, Fang Yuan got the goshawk to bring them down to the valley, then freed it from the control of the Hunter Swallowtail Butterfly Gu and allowed it to leave.

Wan Qian had gathered quite a number of people.

They were all disciples who had failed to climb the Thousand Blade Valley and fell down injured.

Right now, she was distributing medicinal pills to these people to let them quickly recover from their injuries.

Fang Yuan found a place to sit cross-legged and began to concentrate and guide his spirit essence to nurture his Gu worms.

His efficiency increased by another 50%.

Now that the pill’s medicinal strength, the blood lotus essence and spirit essence were combined, the cultivation efficiency of most Gu worms was close to 300%, and it was very terrifying.

Li Tongzhou did not say a word, staring at Wan Qian’s graceful figure in a daze.

In the end, he discovered that after Wan Qian handed out the pills, she turned her head to look in his direction and slowly walked over.

“Holy crap?”

Li Tongzhou was stunned.

He had never dreamed that one day, the goddess in his heart would take the initiative to approach him.

Very straightforwardly, he immediately went offline.

He looked at her foolishly.

Wan Qian moved lightly with her lotus steps. Her figure was elegant and her temperament was outstanding.

The surface of her shoes rubbed against the sand, but she didn’t leave a single footprint.

The slight sound was completely drowned out by the noise in the surroundings.

If he hadn’t seen her with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have been able to notice that she was approaching.

This was the performance of someone who had reached the peak of the tenth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Only someone who was close to the Enlightenment Realm would be able to grasp this kind of power that was compatible with nature.

Wan Qian stood in front of the two of them, her gaze directly landing on Fang Yuan.

Feeling his surging aura, she was slightly surprised.

“Already at the Foundation Establishment’s seventh layer?”

She remembered that when she met him two days ago, he was only at Foundation Establishment layer five. She didn’t expect him to advance so quickly in such a short period of time.

Even if he spent her thousand primeval stones, it would still be impossible.

Wan Qian admitted that she couldn’t do this. If she was now at Foundation Establishment layer five, a thousand primeval stones would at most allow her to advance by a layer. She definitely wouldn’t be able to advance twice in a row.

This talent was not worse than hers.

Li Tongzhou suddenly realized, and only then did he understand that Wan Qian was going for Fang Yuan, not him.

He had some doubts in his heart.

He had been paying attention to Wan Qian for so long, but he had never heard of her paying attention to any male Gu master.

Thus, he could not help but ask.

“Senior Wan, you know Senior Fang?”

Wan Qian only nodded lightly, and she did not explain.

This made Li Tongzhou even more curious, but he did not dare to ask further. He could only look at Fang Yuan and nudged his waist with his elbow, reminding him, “Senior Fang, Senior Wan is here to look for you.”

Fang Yuan slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze met Wan Qian’s as she sized him up.

This was the first time he had seen Wan Qian’s appearance clearly. Her lips were red and her teeth were white. Her facial features were exquisite and she was indeed quite beautiful. She could be said to be a beauty of the same level as his cousin Yu Bing.

However, Wan Qian’s temperament was even colder. When she stood there, she gave off a feeling of being a thousand miles away from others.

Such a woman could often trigger a man’s desire to conquer her. No wonder Li Tongzhou would say that many of his fellow disciples were attracted to her. It was not without reason.

As for Fang Yuan himself, he did not feel anything.

He had been together with Yu Bing for so long that he was already used to such beauty. He would not even look at her twice.

But out of courtesy, he still stood up and bowed.

“Senior Wan.”

“Mm… Junior Fang, right? I’m here to thank you.”

“Thank me?”

Fang Yuan was a little surprised.

“Didn’t you tell me the location of the demonic beast before?”

Wan Qian said softly, “I got someone to find them. They were very helpful to me, so I came specially to thank you.”

As she spoke, she took out a heavy bag from her bosom and handed it over.

It looked like it was filled with primeval stones.

“We’re all from the same sect. There’s no need to be so polite. It’s just a small matter.”

Fang Yuan did not accept it. After all, he had only given her a piece of information and did not put in any effort at all. He felt guilty for accepting it.

Wan Qian did not insist. She smiled slightly and said, “In that case, I’ll owe you a favor. How about this? If you encounter any trouble in the future, as long as it’s within my ability, I’ll definitely help you.”

“Then thank you, Senior Wan.”

“You’re welcome.”

Wan Qian raised her hand and tidied up the messy strands of hair beside her face behind her ears. She asked casually, “I saw that you came down not long after you reached the peak. How was the harvest?”

Fang Yuan thought for a moment and said his true feelings, “It was quite satisfactory.”

Li Tongzhou rolled his eyes.

“You’ve already gotten the best thing there was, and you’re only satisfied…”

Wan Qian’s expression finally changed when she heard that. She asked in surprise, “You guys got the blood lotus?”

Li Tongzhou quickly waved his hand and explained.

“It wasn’t us.”

“It was Senior Fang alone who got it.”

“Senior, you didn’t see it. Senior Fang completely ignored the influence of the blood lotus and directly uprooted it.”

“If it wasn’t for him, I would still be trapped in the illusion with the other seniors.”

Wan Qian’s eyes shone brightly after hearing this.

There were not many Gu masters who could resist spiritual attacks in the outer sect.

Moreover, Fang Yuan’s talent was so good, and his cultivation speed was shocking.

It seemed that he would definitely have a place in the outer sect competition this time.

How come I had never heard of such a talented junior in the outer sect before?
