Chapter 687: The Return Journey [41 and 42 Bonus Chapters for Golden Alliance Leader Wise Sea Morning]
Fang Che pointed a finger and tapped it on Mengling's forehead, which was smaller than his own finger.
Mengling affectionately hugged Fang Che's finger, feeling delighted.
This name sounded so nice. It was better than all the others...
But Fang Che was already thinking about how to strengthen Mengling a little. This was a bit too weak...
You even swallow nutrients so slowly...
Just then, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Mengshi was the first to jump into Mengling's bucket, opening her mouth: "Gududu..."
Then the other three almost simultaneously jumped in: "Gududu..."
Mengling's bean sprout-like little hands desperately tried to block them, but they couldn't stop them, and in an instant, the bucket was gone.
Mengling was stunned, and immediately burst into tears.
There were even tears.
But tears were also a form of nourishment...
Menghuang immediately leaned in, licking Mengling's tears from her face... licking...
Fang Che was dumbfounded!
Even Menghuang and Mengjie on the side were all shocked by Menghuang's action.
They all regretted and realized: Oh no... there's this move too!
Mengling was licked into a daze... She stood there in a daze for a while, and then burst into tears and ran into the little flying dagger...
Only then did the other four reluctantly return to their respective metals, and then half of their bodies emerged from the metals...
Fang Che understood.
This was the post-meal tea talk, and it was about to start again.
Anyway, he couldn't understand it, and he couldn't figure out the communication method of this little guy.
But up until now.
On the divine metal, Fang Che could be considered complete.
Swords, spears, halberds, and flying daggers!
Mengshi, Mengjun, Menghuang, and Mengjie!
Think about it.
Fang Che felt a bit satisfied.
My five mighty generals! But Fang Che was also a bit worried. Yan Beihan had given a lot of Blood Dragon Ginseng Liquid, and Yan Nan had also given a lot, but these little guys were too good at eating...
In these three uneventful months, over 3,000 pounds had already been consumed.
Fang Che couldn't see any changes in these little things.
If there were any, it was that they were becoming more and more fierce when fighting for food.
Moreover, the opposition between them was becoming more and more serious.
Now, except for the weak and pitiful Mengling who was being bullied, Mengshi, Mengjun, Menghuang, and Mengjie each controlled one side.
Although Mengshi was the stable big sister, the other three also had some discontent and resentment.
Moreover, if they joined forces, they could overthrow Mengshi.
Fortunately, the three of them also had the same attitude of 'I am the best in the world', so for now, there was no intention of forming an alliance.
Fang Che checked the inventory, and the remaining Blood Dragon Ginseng Liquid was enough for him to use for half a year.
But this was used sparingly, not freely supplied.
Otherwise, what would happen if it ran out in the future? Before the supply, the divine metals would calmly wait for slaughter, wait to absorb killing intent, wait to absorb the essence of broken weapons...
But those offerings were very weak.
Since starting the Blood Dragon Ginseng offerings, Fang Che had once tried to stop the supply for two days.
As a result, all five of us are here! We will not let you harm the world!"
The five little guys all cried out in the Divine Mind Space.
They almost turned over the Divine Formless Jade and the small iron piece under the Divine Mind Space.
Fang Che entered the Divine Mind Space, and the five guys were all howling.
He took out the Blood Dragon Ginseng Liquid, and everything was fine.
Fang Che had no choice but to indulge them.
Yan Beihan sent a message: "Night Demon, where are you?"
Fang Che: "Senior Yan? Don't mention it, I came out to find the Night Demon Sect's base, but I got trapped in a heavy snowfall and lost my way."
Yan Beihan: "..." Then you better find your way, I was going to invite you to see a good place."
"Now I don't even know where I am..." Fang Che replied.
Yan Beihan chuckled.
This guy was getting better and better at lying.
He originally wanted to say a few more words, but his heart wasn't in it anymore.
Fang Che: "Senior Yan, how's the reorganization of the White Cloud Palace going?"
"In about three to five days, it will be completely split."
Mentioning the White Cloud Palace, Yan Beihan's enthusiasm waned: "The White Cloud Palace's cohesion is strong. This time, even if we can destroy the White Cloud Palace, the final result may not be worth it."
"How can it not be worth it?"
Fang Che had expected this result.
After all, the White Cloud Palace had been a super sect with a heritage of tens of thousands of years, and there would definitely be internal disagreements, but they were all of the same root and source. How could it be so easy to split?
Yan Beihan forcefully intervened, allowing the White Cloud Palace to disintegrate, which had already reached its limit.
If he still wanted to take everyone away and bring them into the Only Righteous Sect, how easy would that be?
So he had also prepared an answer early on: "As long as the White Cloud Palace no longer exists, even if you don't gain anything, it will still be a great victory. We want to eliminate uncontrollable threats, not to increase our own strength. The power of our Only Righteous Sect is sufficient, and without external supplementation, we can sweep across the world!"
"Turning potential hidden cards into open moves is the greatest achievement of Senior Yan's actions this time!"
Regarding Fang Che's words, Yan Beihan agreed: "Yes, that's what my grandfather said. But for me, I've invested so much time and energy, and the final result hasn't met my expectations.
"Then, out of the blue, he said, 'Let's not talk about White Cloud Palace anymore. The outcome is already set, and there's no point in discussing it further. Let's talk about you. Are you really choosing a site for the Night Demon Sect?'"
Fang Che replied, 'Your insight, Elder Yan, is truly remarkable. In fact, I'm currently engaged in an extremely confidential matter. Of course, this process will span many regions, so it's not inappropriate to also consider a site for the Night Demon Sect along the way.'
Finally, he had forced this guy to change his tune.
Yan Beihan felt a sense of accomplishment welling up inside him for some unknown reason.
'How long will it take to finish the task?'
'Probably a few days.'
Fang Che answered.
'A few days?' Yan Beihan persisted.
'At least six or seven days.'
Fang Che didn't dare give an exact time.
'Good.'
Yan Beihan sounded a bit cheerful. 'This time, the White Cloud Palace matter has been a bit of a headache. When you return, I'll go with you to clear your mind.'
'My word is my bond.'
Fang Che readily agreed and then said, 'Elder Yan, feeding the Blood Dragon Ginseng to the Divine Metal is truly a massive undertaking.'
'Hehe...'
Yan Beihan laughed, clearly taking pleasure in Fang Che's misfortune. 'What? Not enough? It must be quite a glutton, huh?'
Then he said, 'However, you're biting off more than you can chew. It's your own doing. As far as I know, you currently have three pieces of Divine Metal, right?'
'Elder Yan is indeed perceptive. It's a shame I tried so hard to conceal it from you.'
Fang Che expressed his admiration with utmost sincerity.
This made Yan Beihan feel even more pleased with himself. 'You should also consider who I am.'
'Elder Yan is mighty!'
'And do you know why others only nurture one weapon? Even adults like Xue Fuxiao Duan Xiyang only nurture one weapon?'
Yan Beihan's pleasure in others' misfortune was now completely unconcealed. 'Could it be that they can't obtain more?'
Fang Che felt a sense of foreboding and his throat went dry. 'So... it's because the Divine Metal grows alongside its owner. First, a weak divine soul is a secondary concern. Second, each growth of the Divine Metal requires a large amount of nourishment. Third, it's about realm advancement, especially when reaching the Saint Emperor realm. Once one's cultivation reaches a level where they can resonate with the Great Dao and have the qualifications to truly connect with the Divine, the Divine Metal sprite will need to share your divinity. And your divinity must keep up with the demands of the Divine Metal sprite.'
'As for the rest, there are many things that cannot be expressed in words and can only be understood through experience. So, you still need to comprehend it yourself. I haven't reached that level yet, so I can't help you.'
Yan Beihan immediately said, 'I thought it would be impressive enough if you could obtain one piece, but I never imagined you'd obtain three and refine them all. Do you remember that after the Supreme Leader nurtured the Gu to become a god, I met with you and asked you a question? I asked if you had refined the piece of Divine Metal you received as a reward, and you said you had.'
Fang Che tried hard to recall.
He vaguely remembered following Yan Beihan up that mountain peak.
On the way up the mountain, didn't Yan Beihan ask if she was beautiful? But his memory was hazy, and he only remembered her smile when she glanced back.
He couldn't help but say awkwardly, 'My memory is a bit hazy.'
Yan Beihan laughed. 'It doesn't matter. As long as the divine soul is strong enough to support it."
Fang Che humbly asked, 'How can the divine soul be strengthened?'
Yan Beihan replied, 'Vice-Supreme Leader has two pieces of Divine Metal... because he has a dual soul.'
'...' Fang Che was speechless.
'The reason I said it's not a problem is that at any rank, if you find your divine soul is not strong enough to nurture it, you can abandon it at any time.'
'And there won't be any consequences,' Yan Beihan added.
'...' Fang Che was a bit dazed. Abandon it?
'As far as I know, at least my grandfather and Master Duan's grandfather have abandoned it, and several Vice-Supreme Leader grandfathers have had similar experiences. As for whether anyone on the Guardian side has abandoned it, I don't know.'
Yan Beihan spoke.
'What about the Supreme Leader?' Fang Che asked curiously.
'The Supreme Leader has never used Divine Metal, nor has he ever used any weapon. He has always conquered the world with his bare fists!'
Yan Beihan let out a 'hehe' laugh.
Fang Che understood.
'These weapons will require Elder Yan's constant attention from now on,' Fang Che hinted at his request.
'Hehe...'
Yan Beihan replied with a 'hehe,' and there was no further response.
Fang Che couldn't help but roll his eyes. What does this 'hehe' mean? Is it agreement or disagreement?
Sun Wutian entered silently.
He was still dressed in a black robe, looking majestic and handsome like Fang Che.
'Today is more tiring than killing people all day,' the old demon sighed.
'Tomorrow, we're leaving to return to Donghu,' Fang Che said.
Sun Wutian was taken aback. 'Leaving tomorrow? With such heavy snow, what about the people of Celestial Capital?'
Fang Che looked up in surprise and stared at Sun Wutian in disbelief. '...'
Sun Wutian, upon meeting Fang Che's gaze, suddenly understood something and silently turned away.
He said in a low voice, 'Is the cleanup done?'
'Yes,' Fang Che replied.
Sun Wutian fell silent and stood by the window, gazing at the endless white snow outside, the endless snowfall pouring down from the sky... that vast expanse of whiteness.
His body gradually transformed.
Slowly, he hunched over, his hair turning gray.
In his eyes, a savage and brutal expression appeared once more.
He slowly removed his clothes, instinctively wanting to fold them neatly and place them on the chair.
But after folding them once, he let out a cold laugh and directly threw them at Fang Che.
He said indifferently, "The clothes you wear, the actions you take, and the position of your butt determine the responsibilities you must bear."
Fang Che respectfully replied, "As the Ancestor says."
Sun Wutian gazed at the heavy snow outside the window, his hands behind his back as he spoke in a daze, "Go back to Donghu, you can go on your own. I have other matters to attend to."
"Alright."
Fang Che didn't ask why he was being left behind.
Because he knew that if he asked, he would only receive a beating.
But...
"Enter my domain, and let me see your progress these past few days! I'm leaving tomorrow, so I'll teach you a good lesson tonight."
Sun Wutian turned to look at Fang Che, his eyes flashing with extreme brutality.
"Ancestor... I didn't mean to just now... Ah..."
Fang Che let out a painful cry as he was pulled into the domain.
Sun Wutian immediately entered.
A ruthless 'sparring' session ensued.
In one night, they 'sparred' forty-eight times!
"Next time, if you have something, send me a message at any time. But next time, I want to see your cultivation progress, your progress with the Heaven Hating Blade, and your progress with the Flying Saber."
Sun Wutian's eyes were cruel as he looked at Fang Che, who was lying on the ground like a piece of rotten meat.
Fang Che, barely alive, pleaded, "Please, Ancestor... set a standard!"
"There is no standard!"
Sun Wutian arrogantly said, "I'm not satisfied, that's all there is to it!"
"..."
Fang Che's body, swollen like a ball, lay on the ground of the domain, his face filled with utter despair.
Bang! Fang Che was kicked out forcefully.
Sun Wutian flashed and disappeared.
Bang! Fang Che fell onto the bed, his muscles torn, and even his internal organs seemed to be ripped apart at that moment, enduring a hundredfold amplification of the pain...
"..." Fang Che tried to suppress a muffled groan but couldn't help but let out a low grunt.
Sweat poured down his face.
Suddenly, he remembered Yan Beihan's words about the strength of his divine soul, and he couldn't help but think: If I follow Sun Wutian every day and train like this, I'm afraid that even with a hundred more pieces of divine metal... my divine soul might just be able to withstand it!
The next day.
Early morning.
Fang Che didn't ask anyone to see him off.
He didn't even inform anyone of his departure, silently leaving the gate of the Tian Du city guard hall in the midst of a blizzard.
He disappeared into the wind and snow.
Afternoon.
Yu Xiaoran finally saw the letter Fang Che had left behind. He picked it up and read it, feeling a sense of loss and disappointment.
"Team Leader Fang... has left."
The others were also stunned. An odd emotion rose within them.
When Team Leader Fang was around, everyone felt oppressed and struggled to catch their breath. Every moment, they had to work tirelessly.
They couldn't keep up with Team Leader Fang's pace.
Everyone felt they had already reached their limits, but they kept pushing themselves to the brink.
But now that we've heard that Team Leader Fang has left, we all breathe a sigh of relief, yet we don't feel as relaxed as we thought we would.
There's still a sense of disappointment in our hearts.
Because we can see that Team Leader Fang was truly fighting for the people of Tian Du, creating endless slaughter while also bearing the weight of immense pressure.
He worked frantically, fearing that at any moment, an order might come from above to halt the operation.
He killed countless people, but he also saved countless lives. After this massacre, all the wrongful case files in the entire Tian Du could be burned.
Because the perpetrators... had all been brought to justice, and the accomplices had disappeared.
In the midst of the blizzard these past two days, Team Leader Fang continuously gave orders, and as soon as the snow started falling, he issued a command for disaster relief within the first quarter of an hour!
This decision saved the lives of thousands outside the city!
Everyone could see the trend of the blizzard, but if Team Leader Fang had delayed his order for disaster relief by even a quarter of an hour, with the time wasted during the process... although not everyone would have frozen to death outside, the number of people who could have entered the city would have been significantly less than it is now!
He created a peaceful world for Tian Du, yet he didn't ask for any gratitude, and he quietly disappeared.
"Team Leader Fang is a pure-hearted person."
Someone praised him sincerely.
"I never believed that such people actually existed in this world... but now..."
Someone sighed.
Yu Xiaoran looked at the slowly fading footprints in the heavy snow outside and said softly, "Go check the warehouse and see how much Team Leader Fang took."
After a while, someone reported back.
"Everything is intact. Team Leader Fang didn't take anything."
Yu Xiaoran sighed lightly, and a sincere respect flashed in her eyes.
Fang Che had said he would use a spatial ring to carry the items, but in the end, he didn't do it.
"Seal it!"
Yu Xiaoran said solemnly, "Not a single silver should be missing!"
"Deliver it intact to headquarters!"
"Rotate shifts for guarding, and keep a close watch! But anyone who dares to touch it, even if it's just one penny, behead them!"
Yu Xiaoran said softly, "With this heavy snow... the wealth in these few large warehouses, this is the lives of countless disaster victims... Team Leader Fang left it to us, we can't betray his trust!"
...
Along the way, Fang Che kept sending messages.
Zhao Shanhe, Divine Elder, and Night Dream.
The Divine Elder had been out of contact for a long time, and Fang Che was a little worried. He sent a message, only to be scolded.
"I'm busy. I'm out here on a rescue mission! Do you have something to say? If you do, say it quickly. If not, get lost."
"Nothing."
"Then get lost!"
Fang Che disconnected the communication with the Divine Elder, feeling speechless, and wiped his face with snow.
I really got scolded for rushing here...
Night Dream's messages kept coming.
"During this time, something strange happened. Several dozen bandits came to pay up. I followed your instructions and had the Chief Financial Officer receive the payment. They actually paid quite a lot."
Night Dream said.
"Did you beat them up?"
"Mo Ganyun almost scared these people to death. After paying up, a whole group of them are now studying the Continental Codex..."
Night Dream couldn't help but laugh out of breath at the thought.
A bunch of bandit leaders are studying the Codex and becoming law-abiding citizens...
Fang Che felt a strange sense of familiarity with these methods...
He couldn't help but sigh, "Mo Ganyun is indeed not a good person."
"How's the effect?"
"The effect is amazing."
Night Dream was a little worshipful.
"With these people around, they basically dare not commit evil again. The new ones won't be able to rise. It's indeed a good method, but this method can only be used by you and is not suitable for others to follow."
"Yes."
Fang Che acknowledged, "By chance, for a certain goal, a group of lucky ones was created, but in other places, it cannot be imitated. Such lucky ones can only exist as examples across the continent, and be objects of awe and envy, that's enough."
"How's Mo Ganyun and the others doing with the other continents?"
"Currently, there are two continents left to be rectified, but it's also nearing the end. With this snowfall, it's time to wrap things up. Rain Song and Jing Shuanggao should be returning soon."
"That's good."
Fang Che sighed deeply.
The seventeen continents in the southeast were finally rectified.
What's next?
"With this snow disaster, how's the arrangement in the southeast?"
"You should immediately pass the message to Chief Zhao. Chief Zhao has already made arrangements; after the fact, the Chief has mentioned your reminder on many occasions, saying that if not for you, many more would have died..."
Night Dream recounted every detail.
Fang Che chatted about these matters while rushing through the wind and snow, not feeling lonely.
Finally, he finished.
"I'm on my way back now."
"What?"
Night Dream was shocked, "So soon? With such heavy snow, you must be careful on the road."
"I know. How's your cultivation?"
"Cough... I'm almost at the Nearly Duke Rank." Night Dream felt a bit nervous.
If Fang Che had returned too early, he would definitely be punished.
"Hehe, wait for me! When I get back, your punishment is ready. I've been accumulating it for over two months."
Fang Che sent a message that terrified Night Dream.
"I must break through no matter what!"
Night Dream made a determined decision, like a vow.
Then, he disconnected the communication and rushed to cultivate!
No matter what, before Fang Che returned, he must break through to the Duke Rank! No matter what, he couldn't be trampled for this reason! Fang Che put away the communication jade.
Then, he communicated with the Five Spirit Toad and sent a message to Dragon Phoenix Horse Ox Sheep and Mo Wang using the Only Righteous Sect's communication jade.
"In the southeast, the Donghu Continent gathers, preparing to establish a sect!"
The six immediately replied, "We report to the Sect Leader, over a month and a half ago, we've already reached the southeast and are currently hiding in the mountains."
Fang Che was stunned, "So proactive?"
The six sighed, "Sect Leader, this isn't about being proactive, it's a necessity. Our original positions have been resigned, and we no longer have our positions. Currently, before we can return to the sect, we're essentially wandering cultivators. If we're late, we'll die."
"So that's how it is."
Fang Che said, "Then you wait well."
"Yes, Sect Leader."
Fang Che traveled through the wind and snow.
The feeling of being alone in the vast wind and snow made his mood peculiar, and his thoughts instantly scattered to the boundless horizon.
Instantly, past events flashed before his eyes, scene by scene.
At that time, in the same snow, there was no sign of people across the way, but he encountered Sun Yuan in the wind and snow. It was that encounter that took Sun Yuan's life.
At that time, his cultivation was only at the Marquis Rank...
Now, rushing through the same wind and snow, the vastness of the world, reminiscing about the past, felt like a cycle of life.
That roar in the blizzard seemed to still echo in his ears.
"Master..."
"I will avenge you. That day... is not far away."
