Upon seeing Fang Hong, Su Shan's pretty face changed, and she instantly froze in place. She and Fang Hong stared into each other's eyes, as if no one else was on the street.
After a mont of stunned, Su Shan's face beca flushed with anger, and she quickly walked towards Fang Hong. The other beautiful woman accompanying her, unsure of what was happening, could only hurry to catch up.
Fang Hong was startled by Su Shan's appearance, but this ti, he didn't run away. Last ti, it was because his cultivation was insufficient, and he was afraid Su Shan would attack him. Now that he was also a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, he had nothing to fear.
"Oh, isn't this Daoist Fang? What a coincidence, you're here too!" Su Shan ca before Fang Hong, her beautiful eyes glaring at him, evidently still a bit angry about his unannounced departure.
"Yes, what a coincidence, Fellow Daoist Su, you're here too." Fang Hong smiled awkwardly.
"Sister Shan, who is he?" At this mont, Su Shan's companion looked at Fang Hong, her eyes full of curiosity, and couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, his na is Fang Hong. He's my... friend. We hunted Demonic Beasts together." Su Shan's eyes flickered slightly as she answered, a faint blush rising on her face.
"This is my Junior Sister, Lin Na." Su Shan felt a little guilty as she introduced her to Fang Hong.
Lin Na smiled politely at Fang Hong, and Fang Hong also nodded with a smile. Lin Na only had Qi Refining Perfection cultivation, yet she dared to stay by the side of Su Shan, a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator. They must be very close sisters.
Hearing Su Shan call him a friend, Fang Hong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seed Su Shan didn't bla him for that incident.
"Fellow Daoist Su, you just ntioned 'fellow sect'? Are you a disciple of so sect?" Fang Hong asked curiously.
"Yes, both of us are disciples of the Taiyi Sect." Su Shan nodded in response.
"So it's the Taiyi Sect!" Fang Hong suddenly understood. He recalled that the first ti he saw Su Shan, he felt that her deanor was not like that of a loose cultivator disciple. Now he finally knew her background.
"It's been a while, and Daoist Fang has progressed very quickly, having successfully achieved Foundation Establishnt. May I ask where you are cultivating now?" Su Shan was equally curious about Fang Hong's origins.
"I am a disciple of Danxian Valley." Fang Hong did not conceal it and responded frankly.
"You're actually a disciple of Danxian Valley. That's impressive." Su Shan was surprised when she heard this, then her lips curved into a genuine smile.
She had originally thought that if Fang Hong was a Loose Cultivator disciple, she could bring him to cultivate in the Taiyi Sect. But now, it seed unnecessary, as Danxian Valley's strength was even greater than the Taiyi Sect's.
Afterward, Fang Hong chatted with the two won for a while, then he said, "Fellow Daoists, I still have things to attend to, so I'll be taking my leave first."
Having said that, Fang Hong was about to leave to continue hunting Demonic Beasts and collecting spirit pills.
"Hey, where are you going? I still have sothing I need your help with." Seeing Fang Hong about to leave, Su Shan imdiately reached out to stop him, her movents a bit urgent.
"What is it?" Fang Hong was startled and asked in confusion.
"There are too many people here, it's not suitable to discuss important matters. Let's go to that mortal teahouse nearby. Co on, co on, co on."
Su Shan said, pushing Fang Hong towards the teahouse, her posture not allowing him to refuse.
"Sister Shan and this Fang Hong seem to have an unusual relationship. Could they be childhood sweethearts who grew up together.?" Lin Na followed the two, her face looking strange, secretly making wild guesses in her heart.
She secretly observed their every move, and the more she watched, the more she felt that the atmosphere between them was subtle, as if hiding so unknown secret.
Fang Hong, feeling helpless, could only follow Su Shan to the teahouse, wondering what she actually wanted to discuss.
After the three arrived at the teahouse, they found a corner seat and ordered so plain tea. Su Shan even used two sound-insulating runes to prevent others from eavesdropping on their conversation.
Seeing this, Fang Hong couldn't help but recall the first ti he t Su Shan, it was also like this.
At Qingxia Town, Su Shan was also this cautious, taking out sound-insulating runes.
"What important matter is it? Tell ." Fang Hong smiled, picked up his teacup, and took a light sip of the clear tea.
At this mont, Lin Na leaned into Su Shan's ear and whispered, "Sister Shan, can we really trust this Fang Hong?"
As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Fang Hong, her eyes showing a hint of worry.
Su Shan patted Lin Na's hand, revealing a reassuring smile, and nodded firmly, indicating that she could rest assured.
Seeing this, Lin Na felt much more at ease. She and Su Shan had been good friends for many years and understood each other. Since Su Shan trusted Fang Hong so much, she also chose to believe.
"Daoist Fang, it's like this, I want to invite you to explore an Ancient Tomb with us." Su Shan said.
"Another Ancient Tomb. Fellow Daoist Su, could it be that you are an expert at tomb raiding?" Fang Hong's face showed a strange expression when he heard this. Last ti, Su Shan also ca to him to explore an Ancient Tomb.
"I'm not so tomb raiding expert." Su Shan glared at Fang Hong, then she turned to look at Lin Na.
Lin Na nodded, understanding. She took out a white bead from her Storage Pouch. The bead emitted a soft white light, resting quietly in her palm.
Lin Na reached out and handed the white bead to Fang Hong.
Fang Hong was slightly startled and subconsciously reached out to take the white bead.
He swept his Divine Sense over it slightly, and his originally calm face imdiately showed a surprised expression, blurting out.
"This is, a secret key?"
At this mont, he was no longer the novice who had just entered the Immortal Realm. After reading many books in the Scripture Pavilion, he had gained a certain understanding of many things in the Immortal Realm.
What Lin Na handed him was indeed a secret key. Such secret keys were usually specially made by Ancient Cultivators to guard sothing important, and they often recorded a mysterious location, perhaps hiding unknown secrets and a Treasure Trove.
"Yes, this is a secret key. I accidentally bought it from a mortal shop." Lin Na blinked and nodded.
"How about it? Daoist Fang, the technique recorded by this secret key was definitely left behind by an Ancient Cultivator. Perhaps we can obtain the Treasure Trove left by the Ancient Cultivator." Su Shan picked up her teacup, took a light sip of tea, and then looked at Fang Hong with a smile.
Fang Hong fell silent. He carefully examined the white bead in his hand. What Su Shan said did make so sense. This bead looked ancient, and perhaps it really did hide a huge secret.
"Have you two checked out this place beforehand?"
After a mont of contemplation, Fang Hong's gaze shifted from the bead to Su Shan, and he asked earnestly.
"We have. It's an uninhabited place overgrown with weeds, right on the northern edge of the Ten Thousand Demons Ancient Forest. But we didn't dare to enter directly. We planned to invite one or two Fellow Daoists to explore with us, and then we t you." Su Shan recalled.
After thinking for a while, Fang Hong nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go with you to explore, but I need five days to prepare."
He was also very interested in this Ancient Tomb. Perhaps he could find the Advanced rune he had always dread of inside.
