"That’s good."
Bei Mingxin closed his eyes and said, "As long as one of you can make it to the top three, this matter can be manipulated, and it will definitely succeed. The top three in this ’Cultivating Gu to Beco a God Plan’ are crucial! It’s the first ti since the founding of our Wei Wo Zheng Sect! You understand!"
Ren Zhongyuan felt a chill: "Yes!"
"When I leave, you’ll be responsible for escorting . Stay at the Main Altar for a while, then return."
Bei Mingxin said.
"Why?" Ren Zhongyuan was confused.
"I’m afraid you’ll be killed by the Yin Shen Palace during this ti!"
Bei Mingxin rolled his eyes and said, "Additionally, you need to keep an eye on how many of your General Level seeds erge, who among them can take leadership roles in the future, who can be cultivated as deputies, and prepare to send them to other sects as Vice Sect Hierarchs. At least five to ten candidates should participate in the selection for a Sect Master qualifier."
"The Sect Master qualifier is the real root of the factions."
Ren Zhongyuan said, "That... seems a bit too early."
"If you don’t prepare in advance, and you find yourself being overpowered like the Yin Shen Palace, how will you handle it then?"
Bei Mingxin glared.
"Yes, yes, Master Uncle’s teaching is right."
...
Fang Che returned ho, and Ye ng was extrely surprised: "Young master, are you okay?"
"I’m fine now."
Fang Che smiled, "Everything’s fine at ho these days, right?"
"All’s well. It’s just that the old gentleman has been worried about you..."
"Hmm, I’ll go see the old gentleman."
Fang Che made his way to the underground chamber: "Master Mu."
Mu Lin Yuan’s spirit was instantly lifted: "What? You’ve woken up after being in a coma for six days?"
"Yes. To be precise, it’s been five and a half days."
Facing Mu Lin Yuan, Fang Che could pour out his woes, expressing fear: "Master, this Wenxin Road is truly dangerous. At the mont before the coma, I distinctly felt my Divine Sense was torn to shreds, and I didn’t even think I would wake up."
Mu Lin Yuan’s eyes flashed with a cold light: "This ti, you were frad. I’ve communicated with the Sect Hierarch many tis these days. We’re investigating the family that reported you!"
"Once we find out, we will get justice for you!"
Mu Lin Yuan was both angry and frightened.
Because if Fang Che had died, he would have absolutely no security here.
He still had injuries from the spear intent, and his strength was less than one-tenth of its full potential. If encircled, he could only wait for death.
Heaven pities, luckily Fang Che recovered and returned.
"I’m just perplexed, I was well-hidden, and the other party was tacit, why did this suddenly happen?"
Fang Che said depressingly, "This really caught off guard."
"The Guardians internally might not be a monolith. Look at our Wei Wo Zheng Sect; how could there not be factions in a force spread across the entire continent?"
Mu Lin Yuan took it all in stride.
"How is your cultivation now?"
"It’s already at the Sixth Realm Innate Grandmaster level."
Fang Che said, "These six days delayed a lot."
"No worries, this speed is perfectly fine."
Mu Lin Yuan spoke for a while, then his injuries flared up, causing his body to tremble: "I need to start removing the spear intent now."
"Disciple takes his leave."
...
Fang Che ca out, pondering his responses, feeling that there were no issues with both Yin Shen Palace and Mu Lin Yuan.
Moreover, Mu Lin Yuan would surely convey his real feelings of fear and trepidation to the Yin Shen Palace.
This kind of information coming from others is far better than complaining oneself.
This thought put him at ease.
And through this "audit, traversing Wenxin Road" operation, Fang Che clearly sensed a change in Yin Shen Palace’s attitude towards him.
One could say that after experiencing such a ’close-to-gain-and-lose, almost despair-yet-return’ fluctuation, Yin Shen Palace’s vigilance towards him was basically gone.
All the injustices suffered here turned into plus points over at the Yin Shen Palace!
Moreover, it let the Yin Shen Palace know through its own channels, which automatically added more points after his self-manipulation!
In this regard, Fang Che sincerely admired Dongfang Sansan.
The Ninth lord basically had Yin Shen Palace’s thoughts firmly in hand. His maneuvers caused their mood and emotions to rise and fall with his operations.
It was completely... whatever Dongfang Sansan wanted Yin Shen Palace to think, they had to think — he could even control Yin Shen Palace’s thoughts, as if they were a puppet on strings.
Let alone actions.
One maneuver made Fang Che’s path as an undercover agent completely clear in a short ti.
Fang Che admired him wholeheartedly.
Fang Che felt that Yin Shen Palace was involved inside the ga. anwhile, Dongfang Sansan stood outside it, watching with clarity, manipulating it from a god’s-eye view.
Fang Che couldn’t help but sigh: Truly a peerless strategist. Yin Shen Palace is not even worthy to play against Dongfang Sansan.
Dongfang Sansan is the player.
And Yin Shen Palace is just a small pawn.
The gap is that evident.
A mont’s sigh.
Continue to dispel Evil Qi at night.
It must be said, this small ancient jade contains an endless stream of Evil Qi, like a universe of Evil Qi hidden inside, making Fang Che increasingly apprehensive.
This thing is definitely not ordinary!
According to the Ninth lord, it’s Sun Wutian’s, but he hasn’t heard of such a person. He’ll have to find ti to inquire.
Starting the next day, Fang Che followed his routine to enhance himself.
He either entered the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room or sparred with the five-person group.
But Li Changkong and others brought new regulations from the Martial Arts Academy.
"Mo Gan Yun and others, due to their upcoming participation in the grand competition, will have all their expenses covered by the academy during this period, including entering the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room and Martial Arts Techniques, all free of charge."
"Fang Che won’t enjoy this benefit."
The distinction was drawn instantly.
There was an uproar among Mo Gan Yun and the others as they protested.
Fang Che, however, didn’t mind, saying, "I’m not participating in the grand competition. If I have the sa benefits as you, wouldn’t it be taking advantage? If everyone like takes advantage, what will the academy do?"
That alleviated the crowd’s anger.
But then Fang Che chuckled, "But I am feeling quite upset, so I have decided to start beating you up from today."
"Fine, bring it on. Who’s afraid of whom!"
What followed was a one-sided beatdown.
Fang Che showed no rcy, knocking all five of them to the ground, depleting their Physical Strength and Spiritual Power completely.
Yu Zhongge and the others complained incessantly.
Because after waking up from his coma, Fang Che beca even more formidable.
Moreover, there was a faint Evil Qi around him.
One should not underestimate this Evil Qi, as it provided an overwhelming montum advantage in competitions of the sa level!
"Boss Fang, you seem different; there’s a heavy Evil Qi on you," Yu Zhongge remarked.
"If it were you, having gone through such an ordeal, you’d have Evil Qi too," Fang Che sighed.
Everyone nodded silently.
Indeed, being unjustly accused, almost turned into a cripple, and clueless about the whole matter, it was utterly baffling...
If it were themselves, they’d be filled with resentnt, too.
Especially since Fang Che had made great contributions multiple tis!
Fang Che’s current Evil Qi could be understood.
It’s so damned unfair, so damned aggrieving!
Everyone sighed repeatedly, all empathetic.
"Why the long faces? Get up and let’s fight again!" Fang Che said.
And so another round of rciless beating began.
Again, he had them all on the ground.
Then he began to taunt, relentlessly.
Once the group recovered, they started ganging up on Fang Che. This fight was fiercely intense. Five people joined forces, while Fang Che gave it his all. Although slightly at a disadvantage, he fought on courageously. By the end, it was evenly matched, all six too exhausted to lift even a finger.
Then they recovered slightly and simultaneously entered the Spiritual Energy Gravity Cultivation Room.
In the following days, Li Changkong and the others also participated in guiding them.
Soon, all four supervisors realized: Their guidance in battles was far less effective than Fang Che sparring with them!
After they pondered, they understood: They were holding back their strength and couldn’t go all out. And Mo Gan Yun and others had so scruples, so they failed to reach their peak.
With mutual restraint, the brutal combat feeling was lost.
However, when Fang Che as their peer pumled them, it instead stimulated their competitive spirit, and they extracted their potential even while at a disadvantage.
This was a complete contrast.
Psychology determines everything.
Such is their thinking, the four felt it was a pity.
If Fang Che could lead such a team to the grand competition, it would be a perfect match!
But alas...
Of course, Li Changkong and others didn’t know that Fang Che absolutely couldn’t participate in the Martial Arts Academy’s grand competition. Because the tiline of the ’Cultivating Gu to Beco a God Plan’ coincided entirely with the grand competition!
If you partake in one, you can’t join the other.
You can only choose one.
And Fang Che had no choice.
The ’Cultivating Gu to Beco a God Plan’ was sothing he had to go for, so when he woke up and learned about the academy’s decision, Fang Che was relieved.
He knew this was all part of Dongfang Sansan’s plans, subtly influencing everything, which filled him with shock.
For the most part, nothing major happened following this period. The various Demon Sects suffered severe losses in Baiyun State and did not dare to act rashly for a while.
And now Baiyun State was strictly guarded, like a fortified copper wall and iron wall.
Even Demon Sect experts dared not co in, and if they did, they dared not act.
It was peace and quiet for a ti.
Fang Che now had nothing to do; he even put aside the task of rooting out traitors in Baiyun Martial Academy, focusing entirely on improving his strength.
"Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, this subordinate broke through to First Grade Innate Grandmaster today."
"Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, this subordinate Night Demon reports an Eighth grade breakthrough."
"Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, this subordinate broke through the Ninth Grade today."
Finally, after a month.
"Reporting to the Sect Hierarch, this subordinate Night Demon, has now broken through to General Level! Currently, First Grade Junior level!"
Yin Shen Palace at the Yixin Sect’s Main Altar burst into laughter.
These days of fulfillnt had finally arrived, as Bei Mingxin left and Ren Zhongyuan went to escort him and hadn’t returned since.
Guan Shan Du had also healed and left.
During this ti, Yin Shen Palace had secretly, silently reorganized the Yixin Sect, eliminating all dissidents.
From the ground up, bit by bit, they tidied things up. To those within the sect, it seed as if Yin Shen Palace could control the weather, and its hand was mysterious and profoundly deep.
After serving as the Sect Hierarch for so many years, Yin Shen Palace’s thods had long reached Divine Transformation. Now, taking it seriously, the Yixin Sect, though not completely rejuvenated, appeared to be united as one.
And during this ti, Yin Shen Palace had also enlisted several small families as Vassal Families, re-establishing hidden lines in each Guardian-controlled city.
Including Baiyun State, they were gradually infiltrating.
They could be said to have achieved significant success.
And now, with the news from Night Demon about the breakthrough to General Level, Yin Shen Palace felt they’d finally reached prosperity after adversity, brimming with energy.
Surely, once the tough tis are endured, the skies clear.
