Chapter 114: The Cousin's Growth
Chapter 114: The Cousin's Growth
"Huh?"
Mu Lin Yuan was left speechless by this action.
This was indeed a bold move.
Moreover, it might not even be possible.
"Let them handle it."
The Seal God Palace's eyes flashed with cold determination, "That place is Ren Zhongyuan's trusted subordinate, a crucial piece in his grand scheme. Whether it succeeds or not, it will cause a huge disturbance. Then...you contact the Night Demon, and..."
Mu Lin Yuan listened intently, nodding repeatedly, "Grandmaster, rest assured."
But then he expressed his concern, "If there are changes over there, it will definitely attract the attention of the Deputy Sect Leader. Both you and Qian Sanjiang are there, and this side might be left too weak..."
The Seal God Palace replied indifferently, "Are you still worried about my safety? Go."
His eyes flashed with dominance, "I've been the Grandmaster of the Unified Heart Sect for so many years, and I'm not someone anyone can control. What can Ren Zhongyuan's schemes do? Right now, as long as I stand here, no one in the entire Unified Heart Sect dares to make a move!"
"Grandmaster, you're so powerful!"
Mu Lin Yuan knew that the Seal God Palace was speaking the truth. Indeed, although Ren Zhongyuan had organized a massive force, no one could shake the prestige of the Seal God Palace!
"This subordinate will go now."
Mu Lin Yuan left to carry out the order.
...
Fang Che's credits had indeed reached rock bottom.
Even with the addition of bonus and merit points, he had only about seven hundred points in total.
Each hour in the Spirit Gravity Training Chamber was worth five points, and there were twenty hours in a day. He had been cultivating in there for nearly thirty-four days.
Breaking through a minor cultivation rank would earn him ten points. He had even thrown in these points.
Now, he only had sixteen points left.
Not even enough for a full day of cultivation.
As for Mo Gaiyun and the others, they had gone bankrupt long ago. In the first few days, they had all gone out to complete tasks, search for spirit plants, and kill demons to earn points.
In the past month, the seven brothers had fought four times. Fang Che had been the champion for three consecutive times, unshakable.
Mo Gaiyun had been the runner-up for three times, also unmovable like a mountain.
Ding Jieren had been in third place for three times. But on the fourth time, he was defeated by Qiu Yun Shang and dropped to fourth place. Moreover, Yu Zhong Ge showed signs of surpassing him.
At this rate, it seemed that within the next month, the fourth place would be taken by Yu Zhong Ge.
Jing Shuang Gao was in sixth place, and Xie Gong Ping remained unshakable in last place.
In Fang Che's opinion, it seemed that Xie Gong Ping would remain in last place until the end of time.
Fang Qingyun and the others had already completed three rounds of tasks and returned. Fang Che gave them some Foundation Strengthening and Vitality Cultivation items, which surprised Fang Qingyun, "Why do you have more?"
"Isn't this normal?"
"Where did you get them from?"
"Don't worry about it, I have my ways."
"Take them back and use them yourself!"
Fang Qingyun was a little dissatisfied, "Always thinking of giving me things? You know my talent, and you have better talent. You should allocate more resources to yourself. If you're still thinking of giving them to me, it's like you don't understand the situation."
Fang Che sighed, "If I thought I had enough for myself, would I give them to you? Isn't this proof that I have more than enough?"
"But shouldn't you leave some for yourself?"
"But there's still this much left."
"..."
Fang Che had to use all his persuasive skills to convince Fang Qingyun to accept the items. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, giving things to his cousin was even harder than flattering the Seal God Palace.
Fang Qingyun asked countless questions, interrogating him in various ways, but still refused to accept the items.
"Stubborn fool!"
Fang Che cursed inwardly.
"Don't give them to others. Keep them for yourself." Fang Che reminded.
Fang Qingyun smiled bitterly, "Do I look that foolish?"
"Yes."
Fang Qingyun was speechless.
He was just honest and straightforward, not foolish. Who in the entire Martial Academy would take out such good Foundation Strengthening and Vitality Cultivation items to share with others?
My cousin really looks down on me.
Fang Che didn't ask about other things, like what happened to Wan Zhi Mei after the incident, or how Fang Qingyun's team was doing... He could see that although they had confirmed Wan Zhi Mei's identity as a member of the Demon Sect, Fang Qingyun's heart still carried some sorrow.
"Let this foolish guy suffer for a while, it's also a good thing. When he experiences more in the future, he'll naturally understand. At that time, I'll ask him about his insights..."
Fang Che left with these thoughts in his mind.
Fang Qingyun held the items given by his cousin, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions, feeling extremely gratified.
His cousin had indeed grown up.
For a while, he couldn't bear to use them, which was proof of his cousin's growth.
After thinking for a long time, he finally took out a spirit plant and slowly consumed it.
"My cousin's future is destined to be as vast as the starry sky and the ocean. The Fang family can't contain such a figure who can turn the world upside down. Even the existence of the Fang family will become a hindrance to him, as enemies will target him through the family."
"So I must also become stronger. My cousin is responsible for venturing out into the world, while I, Fang Qingyun, will guard the family!"
"We each have our responsibilities, and none of us can fall behind."
Fang Qingyun made up his mind, and his mood became lighter.
In fact, Fang Qingyun's progress wasn't slow at all. His cultivation had already reached the seventh level of the Grand Master rank, and he was among the top in his class.
He was truly receiving the treatment of a genius.
With the resources given by Fang Che, Fang Qingyun's strength would leap forward once again, and it wouldn't be long before he achieved it.
It was believed that in the next competition, he would once again astonish everyone.
...
During the days when Mo Gaiyun and the others were out on tasks, Fang Che had no choice but to spar with the instructors after each cultivation session.
Bing Shangxue was assigned to this task.
Bing Shangxue has the best patience and naturally exudes a sense of warmth, treating every student as if they were her own children.
She is gentle, meticulous, and patient.
Now, Fang Che receives her undivided attention.
She combines the strictness of an instructor with life insights, worldly wisdom, a motherly love, and, most importantly, a vast knowledge base, along with an endless repertoire of martial techniques!
No matter how Fang Che attacks, Bing Shangxue remains calm and composed, then points out his shortcomings.
After a regular sparring session, they engage in a simulated life-and-death battle. Fang Che reflects, and they repeat the process.
With each of Fang Che's advancements, Bing Shangxue feels an extreme sense of terror.
Too fast!
Almost every sparring session requires her to bring out an even higher level of strength to keep up.
Not only does Fang Che's cultivation improve, but his understanding of combat techniques also deepens. The most astonishing thing is... he even grasps the concept of 'Force'!
With Fang Che's current strength as a Primordial Grand Master at the third level, Bing Shangxue has to draw upon her Primordial eighth-level cultivation and her lifetime of combat experience to suppress him.
In the afternoon, after their sparring session, Bing Shangxue looks at Fang Che with a complex expression and says, "Fang Che, your cultivation is now sufficient for you to roam the Jianghu."
"I don't think it's enough," Fang Che replies sincerely. "There are too many experts in the Jianghu, and... you never know when you might encounter some heartless individuals who would kill innocent people without hesitation. It would be a great loss to die at their hands."
Bing Shangxue nods and sighs, "Yes, the members of the Only Me Sect are becoming increasingly outrageous. In the past month, three villages near White Cloud Continent have been razed to the ground, and there have been over four hundred instances of slaughter, each resulting in the deaths of at least a dozen people. Among them, at least seven or eight are innocent civilians."
A chill fills Fang Che's eyes.
"We can only teach you for five years. In reality, we use the resources of the Martial Academy to help you young people grow and gain a little strength to face the Jianghu winds. We also plan your future martial path so that you can follow it step by step."
"Over the years, we've taught thousands of students... and they've all flown the nest."
Bing Shangxue gazes into the distance, her eyes filled with a hint of nostalgia.
"How are my senior brothers and sisters doing now?"
"Now..."
Bing Shangxue's eyes reveal a myriad of complex emotions.
They are filled with pain, longing, gentleness, and compassion.
"Several thousand are working in various places, over a thousand have returned to their families, two thousand have joined different Jianghu organizations, and over three thousand have already sacrificed their lives. Five hundred and fourteen are missing, neither alive nor dead."
"Two hundred and four have been confirmed as spies for the Demon Sect, and they took the Five Spirit Toad. When they grew up and understood their situation, they took the Soul Split Pill to resist the Five Spirit Toad, fighting to the death.
Such a decision could only be made by heroes, but it also meant they couldn't survive.
When Bing Shangxue mentioned those seventeen individuals, her voice trembled.
It took a long time for her to recover.
"Fang Che, you don't know how complex our feelings are for you. We hope for your safety, yet we also hope you'll become heroes. We wish for your life to be smooth, but we also want your martial journey to be filled with grandeur, reaching the peak. We strive to teach the good students to become better and the bad students to improve. Yet, after investing so much effort, all we get in return after a few years are countless sacrifices."
"We try to remain detached, but it's impossible not to develop feelings after teaching students for five years."
Bing Shangxue covers her chest and says softly, "This heart of mine has been pierced by you all, leaving countless wounds."
