1258: Chapter 1258: So What if It’s a First-Rate Sect?
Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren calling out “Senior” was not a surprise to Huang Yuanhu, Ye Qingxuan and the other dozen Golden Crow Manor disciples.
After all, just before this, Fang Bai had killed the Bone-Eroding Python and the Feng Lang, saving all of them and displaying a strength far surpassing the two Stewards Sun and Li, so naturally, he deserved the title of “Senior”.
In the eyes of Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren, at first glance, Fang Bai seed like an ordinary person incapable of binding a chicken, but upon closer inspection, he appeared enigmatic like clouds and fog, imasurable, with his true strength and realm completely undetectable.
In this world, the strong are revered, regardless of age.
It makes perfect sense for Sun and Li to address Fang Bai as their Senior, and there’s nothing inappropriate about it.
Fang Bai also calmly accepted this.
“Steward Sun, Steward Li, his na is Fang Bai.
He is my…
my friend…”
Xia Chenyu glanced at Fang Bai, her cheeks blushing slightly as she spoke.
Having experienced many things in their hundred years, Sun Guangyi and Li Jingren could tell from Xia Chenyu’s expression and deanor that her relationship with Fang Bai was no small matter.
They exchanged a glance, their expressions a bit odd.
Huang Yuanhu, Ye Qingxuan, and the other Golden Crow Manor disciples alternated their gazes between Xia Chenyu and Fang Bai, their faces also showing strange expressions.
After Xia Chenyu beca a disciple of Golden Crow Manor, with her extraordinary aptitude and stunning beauty, she was regarded as the proud daughter of the heavens by the manor and was the object of admiration and pursuit by many male disciples.
Huang Yuanqi, the current manor master’s son, was one of those admirers.
Out of indulgence and affection for his son, Huang Canghai intended to matchmake Xia Chenyu with his son, hoping the two could beco martial companions, and even personally inquired about Xia Chenyu’s opinion.
In Huang Canghai’s mind, although his son was slightly less talented than Xia Chenyu, he was still a rare Martial Dao Genius.
With his own ticulous cultivation and support, his son’s future achievents in Martial Dao could potentially match Xia Chenyu’s, making them a perfect match.
Huang Canghai had expected Xia Chenyu to modestly consent after so hesitation, but to his surprise, Xia Chenyu decisively refused.
Although Huang Canghai didn’t know the reason for Xia Chenyu’s refusal, he understood that martial companionship between male and female Martial Artists must be mutual for the benefit of their cultivation.
Afraid that being too persuasive might alienate Xia Chenyu and possibly drive away this prized Martial Dao Genius, he refrained from pressing the matter.
After learning of this, Huang Yuanqi, while disheartened and sowhat unwilling to let go, sought out Xia Chenyu to ask why she had rejected him.
If it had been any other Martial Artist pestering her in this manner, Xia Chenyu would definitely have responded with a cold deanor, paying them no attention.
However, as Huang Yuanqi was usually passionate, straightforward, and acting with a sense of justice, Xia Chenyu had a favorable impression of him, patiently explained that she already had a martial companion before joining Golden Crow Manor.
Xia Chenyu’s revelation was a significant blow to Huang Yuanqi, but he was not one to make unreasonable scenes.
After leaving, he vowed that when the martial prodigy ntioned by Xia Chenyu ca to Golden Crow Manor looking for her, he would et him in person to see what kind of extraordinary Martial Artist could capture the heart of the prodigious Xia Chenyu to the extent that she would remain steadfastly waiting.
Thereafter, Huang Yuanqi went out to explore and seek a breakthrough in Martial Dao, wanting to prove to Xia Chenyu that he was not inferior to the man she had in her heart, only to suffer severe injuries during a conflict with other Martial Artists on the way.
Although Xia Chenyu was not to bla for the trauma suffered by Huang Yuanqi, she felt sowhat guilty and joined this training expedition, wanting to contribute her efforts.
She hoped to find the Blood Bodhi and then ask an Alchemist to prepare a Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pill, giving Huang Yuanqi a chance to recover completely.
However, the Blood Bodhi is a treasure among Spiritual dicines, and Huang Yuanqi’s injuries required a Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pill made from the Blood Bodhi aged a thousand years or more, greatly increasing the difficulty of finding it.
Hence, Xia Chenyu and the others ventured deep into the Forest of Myriad dicines to try their luck, only to run into the attack of the Bone-Eroding Python and Feng Lang, narrowly escaping death thanks to Fang Bai’s tily appearance.
The matter of Xia Chenyu having a martial companion was known not only to Stewards Sun and Li, but also to Huang Yuanhu, Ye Qingxuan, and others, who did not expect to encounter Fang Bai here.
Naturally, they were inclined to side with Huang Yuanqi, but Fang Bai had just saved all of their lives, a great deed of gratitude, which is why they felt conflicted and their gaze towards Fang Bai turned peculiar.
“I am Sun Guangyi, a Steward of Golden Crow Manor, and this is Steward Li Jingren of Golden Crow Manor…”
Sun Guangyi forced himself to calm down, introduced himself, and then, with a fist wrapped in his palm, bowed to Fang Bai, gratefully saying: “If it weren’t for Senior Fang’s righteous rescue, we would have already fallen prey to the brutal beasts.
We will never forget the life-saving grace of Senior Fang!”
“We will never forget the life-saving grace of Senior Fang!”
Li Jingren also wore a respectful expression, bowing with his fists clasped to express his thanks.
Seeing the Stewards behaving this way, Huang Yuanhu, Ye Qingxuan, and the other disciples of Golden Crow Manor didn’t dare to neglect, and they too thanked Fang Bai one after another.
“No need for formalities, it was but a minor effort!”
Fang Bai smiled and waved his hand dismissively, then his eyes lit up at the sight of the three-thousand-year Fusion Essence Grass guarded by the Bone-Eroding Python.
He walked over, plucked the grass with ease, and tossed it into his Spatial Ring amid the envious glances of all the disciples from Golden Crow Manor.
Sun Guangyi, Li Jingren, and others were attacked by the Bone-Eroding Python precisely because they were trying to harvest that Fusion Essence Grass, and they nearly faced total annihilation.
Now, they could only watch with a heavy heart as Fang Bai harvested the grass right before their eyes, yet nobody voiced their thoughts.
“Xia Chenyu, let’s go!”
After harvesting the Fusion Essence Grass, Fang Bai casually checked the Cultivation Resources in his Spatial Ring, revealing a satisfied smile at the corners of his mouth, and beckoned Xia Chenyu to follow him.
Fang Bai was preparing to reunite with family and friends from the mundane world at Huaxia Sect, and since he had encountered Xia Chenyu, he naturally intended to bring her along.
As for her identity as a disciple of Golden Crow Manor, Fang Bai didn’t take it to heart at all.
What was a first-rate Sect?
With the speed of Fang Bai’s strength advancent, given ti, he could single-handedly crush a first-rate Sect like Golden Crow Manor.
Although a first-rate Sect had a profound foundation, Fang Bai simply didn’t regard it as worth considering.
In terms of Cultivation Techniques and martial skills, Fang Bai’s mind was filled with many, the grades of which were beyond the imagination of the Martial Artists in this world.
As for resources like Essence Stone Elixir for cultivation, although Fang Bai himself was currently in short supply, he had the confidence and ability to find more Cultivation Resources to et the needs of Xia Chenyu’s training.
Therefore, Fang Bai felt there was no need for Xia Chenyu to stay at Golden Crow Manor, which would impact her achievents on the path of Martial Dao.
“Fang Bai…”
Xia Chenyu walked over to Fang Bai’s side, her mouth moved slightly as if she wanted to say sothing but hesitated.
“What’s the matter?
If there’s sothing, just say it.
Why be so formal with ?”
Fang Bai said to Xia Chenyu with a smile.
Xia Chenyu took a deep breath and said earnestly, “During the year or more I’ve spent in Golden Crow Manor, everyone from top to bottom has treated well.
Now that there’s an issue within Golden Crow Manor, I want to resolve these matters before leaving with you.
Is that okay?”
Fang Bai knew that Xia Chenyu, like himself, valued loyalty and righteousness, and he nodded, “Tell , what is it?
If I can help, I will!”
