In the hall, Fang Yu and Tuoba Xue’er were chatting happily. Just then, a disciple of the Fang Family arrived at the doorway, bowed, and said, "Mr. Fang, there’s soone from the Heavenly Gang Sect outside asking to see you. This person claims to be a master of the Supre Heavenly Position."
Fang Yu and Tuoba Xue’er were both startled.
"Let him in."
After all, he was from one of the Seventy-two Sects, and moreover from the Supre Heavenly Position; he must be quite a figure.
"Yes!"
Tuoba Xue’er imdiately scooted next to Fang Yu, leaning against his arm, and said, "Brother Yu... Uncle Song told you have WeChat. Let’s add each other. Look, here’s my QR code." The girl giggled as she pulled out her elegant phone.
Fang Yu was genuinely made uncomfortable by her actions, saying, "We can add on WeChat, but let’s get this straight—no harassing!"
"Hehe. Brother Yu... isn’t WeChat for chatting... I won’t bother you during the day, maybe just at night," Tuoba Xue’er grinned from ear to ear.
"..."
Just then.
The disciple from the Fang Family led the person from the Heavenly Gang Sect inside.
"Mr. Fang, your visitor is here."
The expert from the Heavenly Gang Sect, quite polite, slowly walked in, was slightly taken aback upon seeing Fang Yu on the sofa, but then approached and saluted, "Heavenly Gang Sect’s Fan Wenxuan pays respect to Mr. Fang. The Sect Master entrusted with this gift for your gracious presence, and I hope Mr. Fang won’t dismiss it."
Saying this.
He placed the brocade box he was carrying on the table in front of Fang Yu.
Fan Wenxuan smiled and said,
"This item is called the Red Sea Cucumber... it is a red ginseng that grows in the sea, and has..."
Before he could finish.
Fang Yu raised his hand, interrupting him, and said, "I know a bit about the Red Sea Cucumber... it grows in the East Sea Area, about two hundred ters under water. Ordinary cultivators find it hard to harvest, especially with the ferocious beasts underwater. The minimum requirent for those who can harvest the Red Sea Cucumber is to be at Supre Heavenly Position and familiar with the underwater environnt. Besides curing so complex diseases, cultivators who consu it can invigorate blood and remove stasis, clear ridians, and even heal injuries like an Inner Core damage. It’s an excellent dicine for healing."
Fan Wenxuan’s face subtly changed, revealing a surprised expression.
"Mr. Fang indeed has broad knowledge and insight. It’s widely known that Mr. Fang is a Saint Rank Doctor, but I didn’t expect such deep understanding of dicinal materials."
"I haven’t finished my point yet."
Fang Yu again raised his hand to interrupt him, his eyes gleaming as he stared at the brocade box. With a snap, he opened the box—
Inside, a deep red ginseng indeed the size of a radish greeted them, looking rough and fleshy, but the dark red color signified its rarity.
"Red Sea Cucumber. By asuring its roots, the age increases by ten years for every centiter. This Red Sea Cucumber has roots about eleven centiters long, which ans it’s a one-hundred-and-ten-year-old Red Sea Cucumber!"
Upon hearing this.
Fan Wenxuan couldn’t help but clap his hands, sincerely and joyfully saying, "Mr. Fang is absolutely correct, indeed."
Tuoba Xue’er, pouting her lips, remarked, "It’s just a Red Sea Cucumber; my family has those too. Brother Yu, I’ll bring you a whole basket another day."
"Er..." Fan Wenxuan frowned, "This Red Sea Cucumber isn’t like any common radish. A hundred-year-old Red Sea Cucumber is exceptionally rare, young lady, you shouldn’t joke about such things."
"Hmph."
Tuoba Xue’er turned her head away, ignoring them.
Fang Yu chuckled, "This thing is indeed rare, nothing like common radishes... but how could I dare to refuse such a precious gift..."
"Ah?"
"Good things, I of course will keep. Thank you very much."
"..."
Fang Yu handed the Red Sea Cucumber to a servant, and smilingly said, "Mr. Fan, please have a seat."
Fan Wenxuan looked at the Red Sea Cucumber, feeling a bit reluctant, but what has been given away cannot be taken back.
The two sat down.
Fang Yu got straight to the point: "Mr. Fan’s sudden visit, may I know what it’s for?"
Fan Wenxuan smiled warmly:
"A few days ago, I heard that a prodigy appeared in Jiangzhou, a Saint Rank Doctor once in a thousand years. The Sect Master of Heavenly Gang Sect cherishes talent and specifically sent to pay respects to you. Now, it is widely rumored that Mr. Fang’s dical skills are astounding, but isn’t it a bit beneath you to confine yourself to this small Jiangzhou?"
"Indeed, it feels a bit beneath ... But to each their own," Fang Yu replied with a smile.
"Mr. Fang... A person should aim high."
"What do you an?"
"Our Heavenly Gang Sect would like to invite Mr. Fang to join us, should you agree. Riches and honor are easily within reach," said Fan Wenxuan.
"The problem is... I already possess riches and honor." Fang Yu spread his hands, the luxurious decorations and the thousands of square ters of houses around him all displayed his wealth.
Fan Wenxuan was taken aback.
After a mont of contemplation, he said, "These are all but worldly possessions. By joining the Heavenly Gang Sect, Mr. Fang would have access to endless cultivation resources and various rare dicinal materials... Even a cultivator partner as beautiful as a heavenly fairy could be easily found... Mr. Fang is a Cultivator and must have so ans for self-protection to achieve what you have today. However... in this world of cultivation, one cannot fathom the hearts of others, and there may be Soul Stealers lurking in the shadows. These problems would dissolving by joining our Sect. As a Saint Rank Doctor, our Heavenly Gang Sect will surely arrange for two or more protectors of Supre Heavenly Position to guard you around the clock."
Two Supre Heavenly Position experts’ round-the-clock protection?
At this point.
Tuoba Xue’er, sitting nearby, could not hold back any longer, and said, "After all this talk, your Heavenly Gang Sect is here to curry favor with Brother Yu? Just shaless."
Huh?
Not many dared to scold Fan Wenxuan to his face.
Tuoba Xue’er’s words irked Fan Wenxuan.
"This young lady..."
"What young lady, just call a lady, don’t add ’young’... in a couple more years I’ll be an adult! Brother Yu never calls young," Tuoba Xue’er retorted with a glare.
"..."
With a slight frown, Fan Wenxuan said, "Lady, I am here representing Heavenly Gang Sect to invite Mr. Fang. What is improper about that? What is shaless here?"
Tuoba Xue’er smiled brightly and giggled:
"Brother Yu has long joined our Bai Ze lineage... those conditions you ntioned, my father has already fulfilled them." Her tone suddenly paused, "Xuan Ming, why don’t you co out and say hello?"
In the courtyard, slowly approached two figures.
Gray robes, black and white long hair, carrying an air of immortal grace mixed with so evil energy.
Fan Wenxuan had seen their portraits; if these were not Xuan Ming, then who?
His heart skipped a beat—
"So it’s Princess Tuoba Xue’er from Bai Ze. My apologies..."
"It’s good that you know! You are too late... Brother Yu is mine." Saying so, Tuoba Xue’er hugged Fang Yu’s arm.
"Hey, you girl, you can’t just say whatever. What do you an ’mine’? I haven’t agreed to anything," Fang Yu quickly clarified.
Hearing this,
Fan Wenxuan’s eyes brightened, smiling he said, "Mr. Fang is absolutely right... A good bird chooses a tree to nest in, such matters cannot be agreed upon lightly. Therefore... if Mr. Fang agrees to join our Heavenly Gang Sect, I am willing to offer ten Red Sea Cucumbers, and besides the Sect Master, Mr. Fang will have the final say in everything else in the Sect!"
