Fang Che felt a sense of disgust in his heart.
However, he didn’t show it on his face and smiled gently, saying: "Junior Sister acts with composure, and your cultivation has greatly advanced, which is obvious to all of us. How could I laugh at that?"
Lan Xinxue blushed slightly and humd, saying: "Who doesn’t know Brother Fang is exceptionally talented, always gaining more than we do. Yet we’ve gone through so much hardship, narrowly escaping with our lives countless tis."
As she spoke, she sneaked a glance at Fang Che, a tender affection in her eyes.
"Brother Fang, from now on I’ll follow you, so don’t abandon ," Lan Xinxue said coyly.
The young girl was shy.
Venturing in a perilous land, unexpectedly encountering the one she longs for and having soone to rely on, evoked a sense of delicate charm.
Anyone else might have already been utterly captivated.
Fang Che seed to laugh genuinely from his heart.
Lan Xinxue imdiately felt a sense of relief.
Fang Che glanced at the other mbers of the Netherworld Palace, noticing the hostile glances directed toward him from many.
He quickly made a judgnt in his mind: it seed the others weren’t aware of Lan Xinxue’s Cultivation Technique.
But this should be the case, as the Divine Skill of the sect’s treasure is indeed not sothing everyone is privileged to know about.
Therefore, he inquired with concern: "Didn’t I rember there being a hundred and twenty of you in total? How is it you’ve lost contact with the others or beco separated?"
"Brother Fang..." Lan Xinxue’s eyes suddenly welled up with tears: "The other senior and junior brothers and sisters... they have all... found eternal rest in this Yin Yang Realm... sob...sob..."
Fang Che was "greatly shocked" and opened his mouth wide, exclaiming in utter surprise: "How could this be... oh... what a misfortune. This Yin Yang Realm, truly is..."
He then asked doubtfully: "With your Netherworld Palace being so close to the Underworld, didn’t they tell you how to avoid the perils in this Yin Yang Realm? How could there be such a great loss?"
On hearing this, all thirty or so people instantly looked at each other in astonishnt.
Avoid?
Can it really be avoided?
Lan Xinxue also hesitated for a mont, saying: "Brother Fang’s words... seem to carry hidden anings? Could it be that Brother Fang knows the way to avoid it?"
Fang Che responded: "The thod to avoid it is fairly simple. You only need to find a place by a mountain and river, set up a safe zone with the poison of our sect, and in the first five years, you can remain safe. However, the water body must be large and deep enough to get through the early years. After five years, cultivation should have advanced enough that even if you encounter danger, survival and escape shouldn’t be too difficult."
He smiled briefly and said: "It’s a simple thod, the key lies in the first five years. From what I know, that’s how the people from the Underworld manage."
Lan Xinxue looked puzzled, asking: "The people from the Underworld... did they tell you this, Brother Fang?"
Fang Che burst out laughing: "Do you think that Child Saint Yin Yunxiao, with his apparent eagerness to crush to dust, is soone who would share thods of survival with ?"
Lan Xinxue imdiately chuckled as well, sheepishly sticking out her tongue: "I misspoke, then how did you find out, Brother Fang?"
Fang Che chuckled: "It’s a secret."
He then bead openly: "Honestly, it’s a worthless secret. Initially, when I first ca in, I thought I’d both explore and cultivate simultaneously. But I didn’t expect the demon beasts to be so ferocious. I almost lost my life while venturing out a few tis."
"Then, escaping for my life, by the fifth month, I accidentally stumbled upon a campsite by a giant lake. As I stealthily approached, I noticed the pursuing demon beasts didn’t follow..."
"I secretly hid nearby and discovered it belonged to the people from the Underworld, so I didn’t dare to make a move. Because... hahaha, you all know why. So, after staying for a while, I overheard Child Saint’s arrangents and learned of this trick. Ah, so it could be avoided like this!"
"And then?" several people asked in unison.
"Then I left, quietly finding another place by a mountain and river, focusing on cultivation until I ca out after seven and a half years."
Fang Che said with a sigh: "One must admit that the super sects know a lot more than us re Jianghu wanderers do."
He looked at Lan Xinxue, saying: "I thought you had already known about this, but it turned out you didn’t."
Fang Che regretted deeply, saying: "Now I’ve made myself look like a backbiting villain before Junior Sister Lan... What a thing to do, Junior Sister, please don’t take it to heart."
"How could we, we are grateful to Brother Fang." Lan Xinxue forced a smile.
But there was already a gloomy expression on her face.
Not just him, even other disciples of the Netherworld Palace wore an unsatisfied look.
Such a simple thod to avoid danger, yet the Underworld hadn’t said a word!
Kept it hidden!
What does it an?
Especially the ten or so people whose siblings or loved ones had already died in the Yin Yang Realm, their eyes turned red!
Yin Yunxiao, the Underworld, truly atrocious!
A simple ssage, what harm in telling us!
Insisting on keeping it secret, leading to the deaths of so many of us!
So had already begun to shed tears.
Deeply regretting their lost loved ones (siblings).
Is this still an alliance? Are we still from the sa sect? Is this still a marriage between sects? Is this what they call solidarity?
One of the won stepped forward, saying angrily: "Holy Daughter, the Underworld needs to give us an explanation for this matter!"
