As Fang Yu turned and disappeared in that mont.
Ye Xingkong imdiately commanded the Hidden Dragon Guards to protect the Ye family courtyard 24 hours a day.
No one was permitted to approach.
No considerations for any personal feelings.
Ye Wenjun wanted to say sothing, but found that Fang Yu had left quickly, and it was too late to say anything... She couldn’t help feeling a sense of loss. Amidst the loss, there was also a hint of worry.
Seeing his daughter’s worried expression, Ye Xingkong smiled slightly and said, "Wenjun, you needn’t worry. From what I’ve observed, it seems that Fang Yu is not injured... It’s very likely that he is seeking a breakthrough."
A breakthrough?
It’s well known that Fang Yu’s current strength is already formidable.
His victory in the battle at the Forbidden City, where he defeated the traps and experts set by the Lu Family, proved that Fang Yu was much stronger than imagined.
If he were to make another breakthrough, just how strong would his power be?
They dared not think any further.
At this mont, the Ye family patriarch gestured Ye Xingkong over and whispered the situation about Ye Wenjun.
When he learned that Ye Wenjun could set foot on the path of Martial Artists, he was overjoyed, uncontrollably excited, and imdiately said:
"Wenjun!"
"Dad." Ye Wenjun had no idea why her father was so excited.
"Starting today, I will teach you the basics and knowledge about Martial Artists!" Ye Xingkong said earnestly.
"Okay." Ye Wenjun nodded firmly.
Initially, when a son and a daughter were born to the Ye family, Ye Xingchen, as the Ye family’s only son, was always the favored one, and even more so after stepping onto the path of Martial Arts, adored by everyone in the Ye family. He was showered with affection.
In order not to let his daughter feel saddened, Ye Xingkong spared no expense to provide her with the best education at the top universities.
But...
No one could have imagined things would turn out like this today.
Ye Xingchen has gone missing.
Yet Ye Wenjun, because of a chance encounter, has stepped onto the path of Martial Arts.
The Ye family has welcod a powerful figure capable of turning the entire Ye family’s fate—Fang Yu.
Everything was developing in a good direction.
...
The back garden.
The autumn breeze rippled, and the branches rustled.
Although it wasn’t absolutely quiet, it was sufficient.
Fang Yu looked around, taking everything in.
The rockery had been cleaned up, and many new plants surrounded the lake.
The fragrance of fresh grass filled the air, calming his spirit.
"Not bad."
According to traditional dicine, one needs both action and quietude; action can strengthen the body, and stillness can cultivate the self. A plant never moves throughout its entire life, yet lives longer than humans.
The sa applies to turtles and other such creatures.
Of course, humans, being the most intelligent of all creatures, must combine both to reach an optimal state.
With that thought in mind.
Fang Yu slowly sat down cross-legged.
And closed his eyes.
"Today’s battle, although it cost a great deal of Inner Essence, has also provided with invaluable combat experience."
"What’s strange is, why did the Beidou Seven Stars Formation have such a small weakening effect on ?"
This had been troubling Fang Yu since his return.
When the four Great Elders of the Lu Family activated the Seven Stars Formation, he knew that with three stars missing, its power was halved... Even with just half its power, there should have been a noticeable weakening effect.
But it wasn’t as apparent as expected.
"Could it be... because of the Golden Dragon?"
In the Forbidden City, seated in the middle was the emperor, with all directions paying homage.
He wanted to urge the power of the Golden Dragon to directly break the effect of the Seven Stars Formation, but... just as the power of the Golden Dragon erged, a strange feeling arose.
It was indescribable and indefinable.
"What exactly is the problem?"
Fang Yu frowned slightly but couldn’t co to an understanding, "Let’s not worry about it for now, I should first restore my Inner Essence."
Pulling out a Brocade Box from his pocket, he took out the Black Wood Lotus, without any hesitation, snapped it in half, and swallowed it all!
The mont the Black Wood Lotus entered his mouth.
His whole body’s Inner Essence began to churn like an earthquake.
His blood boiled tumultuously, as if afla!
"Such a domineering dicinal power!"
Fang Yu entered the state of Cultivation.
His entire body was enveloped in golden light, and he slowly levitated.
Ten minutes passed.
Thirty minutes passed.
One hour passed.
Two hours passed...
The dicinal power gradually dissipated.
Fang Yu suddenly opened his eyes with force, expelling a breath of foul air.
Crack.
"What’s going on?"
"My Inner Essence is surging?"
He suddenly found that, after the dicinal effects had worn off, his Inner Essence was growing at an alarming rate.
Even more excessively than the last ti.
Because of his previous experience, he managed to deal with it with ease.
He hurriedly used the Inner Essence to expand his Dantian.
When his Inner Essence was saturated, without any hesitation, he attempted to activate the Golden Dragon!
"Appear!"
Around one ter long, and as thick as a finger, the Golden Dragon coiled about his entire body.
After spinning around twice, the excess Inner Essence was absorbed by the Golden Dragon.
Fang Yu’s eyes widened as he observed the Golden Dragon up close.
"Absorbed my Inner Essence, but I have no idea if it’s powerful! Don’t tell I’ve been raising a re reptile for so long!"
He spoke thus, yet his heart was filled with joy.
A resplendent Divine Dragon could hardly be weak.
Another half hour passed.
The excess Inner Essence, brought out by the residual dicinal effects, was all absorbed by the Golden Dragon.
The Golden Dragon also beca thicker than before.
"Divine Dragon Technique, Sixth Layer Peak Realm," Fang Yu nodded in satisfaction and slowly stood up.
In just three to four hours, he had returned to his peak state and even made a breakthrough in strength!
This cultivation speed could be called a miracle.
Fang Yu lifted his head, gazing into the distance and admired, "Old man, you’ve lived in the deep mountains for too long, I believe it won’t be much longer before I can bring you back."
After resting for a mont, just as he was about to leave—
Swoosh.
A breeze ca by, the leaves rustling in an eerie sound.
"Who?"
Fang Yu called out.
Really, the timing couldn’t be better, with his Inner Essence restored, the Golden Dragon enlarged, he was at his peak. No matter who the enemy was, it was a sure death for them!
Rustle.
"Not bad, very keen senses."
This voice ca from the treetops.
Through the moonlight, past the leaves, Fang Yu saw a man holding a long sword, standing on the branches.
Fang Yu smiled indifferently: "rcenary? Assassin?"
The man’s toes tapped slightly, light as a swallow, he gently descended from the branches.
The moonlight poured down.
Fang Yu could clearly see the man’s appearance...
Unblemished, pale but with well-defined features.
His entire being exuded a mysterious and eerie aura.
Instinct told Fang Yu that this was an expert.
An expert far beyond any he had ever seen!
The man’s gaze lingered on Fang Yu for a mont, nodding first, then shaking his head, saying, "Another newcor."
Newcor?
What newcor?
"Hey, if you ca here to pick a fight, let’s get on with it, I detest people like you who put on airs," said Fang Yu.
The man’s expression remained unchanged.
Calmly, he said, "First ti we et, I’ll give you two pieces of advice: one, don’t ss with the Lu Family; two, don’t expose the aura you’ve just emitted too early."
Hm?
Fang Yu was puzzled.
"Are you an ally of the Lu Family?"
No, if he was an ally, he would not be speaking in such a peaceful manner.
"Who are you?" Fang Yu asked in a deep voice.
The man’s face remained stern and did not answer Fang Yu’s question.
Fang Yu snorted coldly as his Inner Essence surged within him, and he roared, "Answer —"
The sudden release of Inner Essence shocked the man, involuntarily taking a step back and admiringly said, "Such a strong newcor... inconceivable, inconceivable..."
Then, facing the bright moonlight, the man regained his composure and spoke, "I am not your enemy, there is no need for anger. Rember my advice, if you’re still alive, we’ll et again. My na is—Lin Weifeng."
Suddenly.
The man spread his arms, tipped his toes lightly, light as a swallow, he leaped onto the treetops, disappearing among the trees with a trajectory and leap that defied belief.
Fang Yu couldn’t help but be stunned.
Eighth Layer? Ninth Layer?
Neither seed right!
Because... a human Martial Artist simply couldn’t do that!
