Chapter 586: Fang Han: I Must Properly Reward You All!

"Fang Han, younger brother, you're here!"

After Fang Han flew in from afar, Fang Yu's voice drifted through the void and reached Fang Han's ears as he stepped into Yuhua Sect.

"Ah, Elder Brother Yu and Sister Qingxue are here too. Huh? Elder Brother Yu and Sister Qingxue's cultivation base…"

Fang Han's gaze turned over and saw the lively Shanhe Ranking Tournament, and on the Elder seats sat Elder Brother Fang Yu and Sister Fang Qingxue—he was instantly stunned.

Because these two elder siblings radiated an aura untouched by calamity, their entire bodies exuded clarity, purity, and yang energy, as if ready to ascend to the Immortal Realm at any moment.

His face immediately showed curiosity—had these two elder siblings broken through the realm?

If Sister Qingxue had broken through and survived the Wind-Fire Great Calamity, he'd find it normal, but could Elder Brother Fang Yu, who cultivated over ninety techniques, also pass through the Wind-Fire Great Calamity so quickly?

That was simply unbelievable.

"Younger brother Fang Han, you've cultivated to the Golden Core Realm after your journey—excellent, very excellent. As for me and your Sister Qingxue, we just passed through the Wind-Fire Great Calamity these past few days."

Fang Yu smiled and spoke—he instantly saw Fang Han had reached the 7th Stage of Divine Abilities, Golden Core Realm; his cultivation speed was astonishingly fast, though still slightly behind his own.

After all, he had already passed the Wind-Fire Great Calamity and was soon to reach the 9th Stage of Divine Abilities, Heavenly Manifestation Realm.

"Elder siblings passed through the Wind-Fire Great Calamity? Congratulations, Elder Brother Yu, Sister Qingxue—now in the Divine Ability Secret Realm, you'll advance without obstruction."

Fang Han immediately offered his congratulations, though he still felt deeply stunned.

He knew that during this journey, he'd gained many rare encounters, acquired several Immortal Mansion treasures, ventured deep into the Gui Xu region, and slain a Great Heavenly Demon King of the Tian Mo clan—a Great Heavenly Demon King comparable to a Golden Core human cultivator who couldn't even self-destruct before Fang Han seized his Golden Core and stole all his cultivated techniques.

With such abundant encounters, he forged a Golden Core with ninety-four techniques, expecting everyone in Yuhua Sect to look at him with new respect upon his return—but he never imagined Elder Brother Fang Yu and Sister Fang Qingxue had both reached the Wind-Fire Great Calamity and were nearing the Heavenly Manifestation Realm.

Moreover, it seemed everyone in Yuhua Sect now deeply respected Elder Brother Yu—he'd heard disciples calling him "Senior Brother" within moments.

Had Hua Tiandu been expelled?

"Fang Han, come sit down—look at your crane immortal, displaying divine power! The Crane Immortal, under the cultivation of our Yuhua Sect's Senior Brother, has reached the True Qi Realm."

At this moment, Qielan spoke—this woman, at the 7th Stage of Divine Abilities, Golden Core Realm, was filled with shock and awe seeing Fang Han, after his journey, had also reached the Golden Core Realm.

How could the Fang family's disciples grow so powerful one after another? As if cultivation realms meant nothing.

"Please, Senior Brother Fang Han!"

Beside Qielan, Ye Piaoling, Long Xuan, and other true disciples all spoke at once, their eyes fixed on Fang Han with equal astonishment.

These female disciples were all at the Heavenly Man Realm or beyond—their cultivation speed was undeniably fast—but seeing the Fang family's geniuses, they were utterly stunned.

Senior Brother Fang Yu cultivated at an astonishing pace, and Senior Brother Fang Han cultivated just as fast!

"Younger brother Fang Han, come here."

Fang Yu also spoke.

"Yes, Elder Brother Yu."

Still dazed, sensing the changes in Yuhua Sect, Fang Han sat beside Fang Yu.

"Elder Brother Yu, have there been some events in Yuhua Sect these past few days? I sense the sect's atmosphere feels off."

After sitting down, Fang Han first looked toward the arena—Crane Immortal and Princess Hongyi, two people he was close to, had both reached the True Qi Realm and defeated one opponent after another.

Competing in the Shanhe Ranking Tournament with the 2nd Stage of Divine Abilities, True Qi Realm, was outright bullying—imagine a thousand Xuan Huang烈Horses clashing with ten Xuan Huang烈Horses; the outcome was obvious.

Aside from Crane Immortal and Princess Hongyi, Fang Han keenly noticed several other disciples had also cultivated into the Divine Ability Secret Realm, some even reaching the 2nd Stage—these were Fang family disciples: Fang Cheng, Fang Dong, and others.

Fang Han remembered these disciples—they'd followed Elder Brother Yu back in the Fang family, and now, under his cultivation, they'd all broken through their realms.

"This year's Shanhe Ranking Tournament is truly filled with hidden dragons and tigers…"

Fang Han silently marveled—if he'd entered Yuhua Sect a year later, boasting his cultivation from last year, he'd have been beaten senseless.

Last year, when he broke through to the 1st Stage of Divine Abilities, Magical Power Realm, he dominated the entire arena; this year, he'd be the one getting dominated…

"Yuhua Sect has indeed experienced several events these past few days—Little Immortal Meng Shaobai also passed through the Wind-Fire Great Calamity and reached the Heavenly Manifestation Realm, but he met Senior Brother and was knocked flat by a single strike—so now, all Yuhua Sect disciples, inner and outer, true and ordinary, revere Senior Brother as their leader."

Qielan said, her beautiful face still holding memories of that scene.

That scene was too shocking to forget—think of it: a peerless genius at the 9th Stage of Divine Abilities, who forged the Peng Phoenix Manifestation, moving at blinding speed in the wind and devouring all things, with near-infinite magic power—anyone encountering him would tread carefully—yet he faced Elder Brother Fang Yu, who was still at the Golden Core Realm, and was instantly knocked flat by a single strike.

Even now, recalling it felt like a dream.

"What? Meng Shaobai also reached the Heavenly Manifestation Realm—and was knocked flat by Elder Brother Yu's strike?"

Fang Han absorbed this massive influx of information, savoring its meaning.

Meng Shaobai, Yuhua Sect's peerless genius, called the Little Immortal, had reached the Heavenly Manifestation Realm at a young age—he was indeed formidable—but knocked flat by Elder Brother Yu's strike? That strike—no, Elder Brother Yu's cultivation must be unimaginably powerful.

Fang Han now understood why every disciple in Yuhua Sect, inner or outer, true or ordinary, now reverently addressed Fang Yu as Senior Brother.

That single strike forged Elder Brother Yu's authority and shattered Meng Shaobai's arrogance.

"Congratulations, Elder Brother Yu—once you defeat Hua Tiandu, you'll become the undisputed top expert among all Yuhua Sect true disciples."

Fang Han offered his congratulations.

"Hua Tiandu—our clash won't be far off. But younger brother Fang Han, you've had quite a journey—seeing you break through to the Golden Core Realm, you must've had a splendid time."

Fang Yu smiled.

"Elder Brother Yu, after leaving Qunxing Sect, I traveled to the Gui Xu region and acquired several Immortal Mansion treasures, some Tian Ji elixirs, and treasure weapons. Later, I ventured deep into Gui Xu, encountered many Tian Mo demons, fought my way through, and slew a Great Heavenly Demon King—on his Golden Core, I gained a Dao principle. I've been studying it with Elder Brother Yu, Sister Qingxue, Qielan, and many fellow disciples."

Fang Han smiled and recounted his journey—speaking, he produced over a hundred High-Grade treasure weapons, handing them to Ye Piaoling and the other true disciples.

Every true disciple of the Qielan Society received a High-Grade treasure weapon!

These weapons included High-Grade armor, swords, silver needles, jade zithers, flutes—various types—all distributed by Fang Han into the hands of every female true disciple.

Instantly, every female disciple's face lit up with delight and longing.
