Chapter 331

That would be self-destructing the Jin Dan!

Self-destructing the Jin Dan, going all out—even a giant of the Longevity Secret Realm would lose half his life!

"Junior Brother Zhao, calm yourself."

Just as Zhao Xuanyi was about to stake his all and self-destruct his Jin Dan, a rumbling voice echoed through the Guixu passage, and a sheet of sun-like firelight flew out; within that blazing sun, the faint outline of a Daoist appeared.

This Daoist descended upon the spot like a deity.

"Great Sun Fire Calamity—Song Weiyi!"

The Demon Marshal furrowed his brow.

"Senior Brother Song."

"Ah, it's our Taiyi Sect's Senior Brother Song who's arrived!"

"Senior Brother Song has finally come!"

Seeing this scene, the disciples of Taiyi Sect all breathed a sigh of relief, and the six True Persons' faces showed boundless joy. With Senior Brother Song Weiyi here, this was another legendary minor giant of the Jin Dan.

"Not good!"

A mutter rose in Fang Han's heart.

Fang Yu's expression, however, was perfectly calm, as if he had long known Song Weiyi would descend. Yet his gaze did not fall on Song Weiyi; instead, it turned toward a certain place in the Guixu. "Hua Tiandu, since you've come, come in."

Boom!

The instant Fang Yu's words fell, outside the Guixu passage, a sudden tremendous force appeared—mysterious and overwhelming, shaking even the distant Taiyuan Immortal Mansion until it trembled.

Within that tremendous force, a person appeared without a sound. This person wore an ordinary blue robe, looking like a scholar of the mortal world. It was none other than Yuhua Sect's First True Disciple Senior Brother, Hua Tiandu—a powerhouse who had cultivated to the 10th Stage of Divine Abilities, Defying Heaven to Change Fate realm, only a single step away from the Longevity Secret Realm.

Although Zhao Xuanyi, Song Weiyi, and the others were Taiyi Sect disciples, whenever they went out on inspection in normal times, they rode in carriages pulled by four-clawed golden flood dragons, accompanied by ninety-nine men and ninety-nine women—an enormous retinue. Yet before this man in a plain blue robe who looked like an ordinary scholar, their strength was simply not worth mentioning.

On Hua Tiandu's body, a mysterious power seemed to ripple outward. With him at the center, the Xu Yuan Qi of the entire world was slowly rotating, like a massive vortex ready to devour anyone who dared show disrespect to the might of heaven.

This man in blue seemed only one step away from becoming a saint, becoming a god—his strength terrifying to the extreme.

"Hua Tiandu, you've come at just the right time. Taiyi Sect wantonly killed disciples of my Yuhua Sect. As my Yuhua Sect's First True Disciple, you naturally must uphold our Yuhua Sect's reputation. State your position."

Seeing Hua Tiandu's arrival, Fang Yu did not make a move. He directly recalled the Xuantian Demon-Suppressing Pagoda, this Dao artifact, and standing in the center of the field, began to speak unhurriedly.

"I already have a general understanding of this matter."

Hua Tiandu swept his gaze across the entire field, and finally his gaze fell upon Fang Han beside Fang Yu.

For some unknown reason, the instant Hua Tiandu saw Fang Han, a feeling of revulsion rose within him toward this disciple of the Fang family, this True Disciple of Yuhua Sect. A flash of displeasure passed through his eyes.

After a moment, he regained his calm expression, though inwardly he was slightly puzzled by the emotion from before, seemingly unable to understand why he had felt that way.

"Fang Han, as a True Disciple of my Yuhua Sect, your strength has indeed risen very quickly, which is rare. However, in your eagerness to raise your strength, your mind and methods are inevitably somewhat crooked—you no longer act as a disciple of the immortal Dao should."

"Hmm?"

Hearing Hua Tiandu actually pass judgment on him with the words "mind and methods crooked," a strong surge of dissatisfaction immediately welled up within Fang Han, and he laughed coldly:

"What do you mean by mind and methods crooked? As a True Disciple of Yuhua Sect, I first killed the Fierce Sky Bandit, ranked thirty-fifth among the Forty Great Bandits, then killed Seven Nights Demon Lord, the son of the Nine Yin Demon God, and obtained the demon blade Blood Vault of Heaven. For such great merits of slaying demons and eliminating evils, even Elder Tian Xing would have to bestow a reward upon hearing of it. On what grounds do you, Hua Tiandu, say my mind and methods are crooked? I am also a True Disciple—how can you casually pass judgment on me?!"

"Is that so?"

Hua Tiandu's face was expressionless, but inwardly his loathing for this minor True Disciple Fang Han had reached an extreme. Nevertheless, he forcefully restrained himself, and then his gaze turned toward Fang Yu beside him. "He is a disciple of your Fang family, and also a True Disciple of my Yuhua Sect. My coming here this time represents the meaning of the Zhang Sect Supreme. Fang Yu, the previous matters were all small misunderstandings—once explained, that's that. The matter between you and the Taiyi Sect disciples is wiped clean. As for the matter between the Demon Marshal and Taiyi Sect, my Yuhua Sect will not interfere."

"Oh, is that so? Bullying a member of my Fang family is just a small misunderstanding? Have you asked my Fang Qingxue about that?"

The instant Hua Tiandu's words fell, in the land of Guixu, endless thunder appeared in the sky. Within the thunder, a woman in white—as if she commanded every thunder law between heaven and earth—appeared in the void.

Black hair like a waterfall, white robes whiter than snow, lightning wrapping her body, coldly beautiful and noble—she was clearly another True Disciple of the Fang family, Fang Qingxue.

"Fang Qingxue!"

The moment they saw this woman arrive, everyone except Hua Tiandu—whether Zhao Xuanyi or Song Weiyi—changed expression.

Clearly, Fang Qingxue's name was renowned throughout the Dao Cultivation World. Unlike Fang Yu, who had only now made a grand splash for the first time, in the past years hardly anyone in the Dao Cultivation World had known Fang Yu.

"Fang Yu, very good, very good."

The moment Fang Qingxue appeared, she looked toward Fang Yu. "You are indeed worthy of being a member of my Fang family—to have cultivated such divine abilities in such a short time. Especially this time, facing the disciples of Taiyi Sect, you were still able to overpower them. Very good."

"How can the children of my Fang family be casually bullied by others? Senior Sister has come at just the right moment—it's time to let the world see the abilities of our Fang family's three True Disciples."

The moment he saw Fang Qingxue arrive, a smile appeared on Fang Yu's face.

"Well said. If members of my Fang family can be bullied by just anyone, and then be told it was all a misunderstanding, then today I might as well kill them and call it a misunderstanding too."

The moment Fang Qingxue descended, her gaze swept over the six True Persons of Taiyi Sect, then Zhao Xuanyi, Song Weiyi, and finally her gaze fell upon Fang Han.

"And you, Fang Han—I already know what you've done. In these past days, you've accomplished many great deeds, each one earth-shattering: slaying the Water Gu Heavenly Demon King, protecting Lei Di's cave dwelling on our Seventy-Seven Forty-Nine Islands, and killing Seven Nights Demon Lord in the Flesh-and-Blood Quagmire to seize the demon blade Blood Vault of Heaven. Now you even dare to talk back to Taiyi Sect disciples. Based on these deeds alone, my Yuhua Sect will certainly reward you handsomely."

Fang Qingxue seemed to know a great deal about Fang Han's affairs.

After her words fell, Fang Yu's gaze also turned toward Fang Han.

"Senior Sister is too kind with her praise."

Fang Han also laughed, though he felt somewhat uneasy inside.

He well knew that it was this very Young Lady of the Fang family, Fang Qingxue, who had once tried to seize the Huang Quan Diagram, but in the end it had fallen into his hands.

"Fang Qingxue, don't make things more complicated."

It was at this moment that Hua Tiandu furrowed his brow.
