Shen Yulin, and Huang Miao, Fang Bai was the first to successfully cross the Nether River.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then sat on a rock by the riverbank, waiting for Huang Miao and others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one noticed when exactly Fang Bai disappeared from the riverbank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who didn’t know Fang Bai would think that he had already left alone to try his luck in the core area of Bitao Mountain Range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But those who knew Fang Bai were aware that he would never abandon his friends and leave alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Qingqing knew Fang Bai wouldn’t leave by himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the only possible reason for his disappearance was that he too, while on the shore, had been attacked by a spirit beast in the river and then dragged into the water…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just thinking of this terrifying possibility made Liu Qingqing unable to stay calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her pretty face turned pale, her heart filled with panic, as if she had lost the most precious thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Fang is so incredible, he must be okay!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He must be fine… he will be…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Liu Liehu was also somewhat panicked, he kept reassuring himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this pair of siblings, within the Bitao Martial Academy, Fang Bai was like a towering tree, sheltering them from wind and rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Fang Bai, their life at the Martial Academy would probably be very difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, Junior Brother Fang has good fortune, nothing bad will happen to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe… maybe Junior Brother Fang had to leave ahead of us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Miao comforted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Qingqing shook her head and said, “No.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Brother Fang were to leave, he would definitely have let us know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior Sister Huang, do you think… could Brother Fang have been attacked by a spirit beast…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, her eyes reddened and tears started to form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Liehu, who was a few years younger than Liu Qingqing, was still an immature boy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his sister say this, he sniffled and suddenly squatted down on the ground, wailing loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yulin looked solemn and sighed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bai was the only one with a Dual Attribute Innate Spiritual Root in the thousands of years since the founding of Bitao Martial Academy, and the academy’s high echelons had high hopes for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were to fall here, it would be a terrible loss of brilliant talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Liehu, you are almost a grown man, why are you still crying?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingqing, even if your Brother Fang was attacked by a spirit beast, he wouldn’t be harmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why have you lost faith in Brother Fang?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar voice suddenly sounded from the trees by the riverbank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanying the voice, a young man walked slowly out of the woods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man had sharp, star-like eyes and handsome features, with a carefree elegance and a warm smile on his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes were fixed on Liu Qingqing and Liu Liehu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Fang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the voice of the young man, Liu Liehu, who had been squatting on the ground, wailing, abruptly stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t bother to wipe the tears off his face, rushed to the young man like the wind, and hugged him tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, enough with the crying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man crying like this, aren’t you embarrassed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And look, you’ve dirtied my clothes with your snotty tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you going to wash them for me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man was indeed Fang Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He patted Liu Liehu’s shoulder and spoke with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Liehu let go of him, straightened up, wiped his tears, and grinned, “Sure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If your clothes are dirty, I’ll give them to my sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She might enjoy washing them for you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Liu Liehu approached Fang Bai with Liu Qingqing beside him, she heard her brother say these words and couldn’t help but blush, yet she did not deny it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Fang, I know you are amazing and I have confidence in you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But… but when I couldn’t see you just now, I couldn’t help but worry, afraid that if something might have happened…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Qingqing spoke softly, her gaze flitting over Fang Bai, and seeing him unharmed, her joy was immense, finally settling her anxious heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are no ‘ifs’!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You must always believe that in this world, nothing can harm your Brother Fang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although these words from Fang Bai might sound arrogant to others, Liu Qingqing felt a strong sense of confidence from his tone and couldn’t help but nod vigorously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Junior Brother Fang, where had you gone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was worried about you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Miao stepped forward to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bai gestured toward the forest by the riverbank and said, “I heard unusual noises in the forest and thought there might be a Spirit Beast lurking, so I went to check it out, but it turned out to be nothing—a false alarm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said this and looked around, then feigned confusion as he asked, “You all crossed the river, where are Senior Brother Ouyang and the others?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yulin, with several team members, approached and when Fang Bai mentioned Ouyang Jian, she angrily said, “Don’t mention that bastard!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his attempt to save himself, he actually harmed his own sect mates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When we return to the Martial Academy after this mountain training is over, I will report the situation to the dean as it is!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harming fellow sect mates is a grave sin, that bastard Ouyang Jian will definitely receive a severe punishment!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time Shen Yulin called him a bastard, it was clear how much she despised and hated Ouyang Jian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t expect Senior Brother Ouyang to be such a person!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bai feigned anger and thought to himself that since Ouyang Jian had already become a feast for the blood-sucking giant bats, he had received just punishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s not talk about that bastard Ouyang Jian anymore!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yulin looked towards the depths of the forest and said, “We have come all this way here and paid a heavy price, so no matter how treacherous the way forward might be, we must continue our training journey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, how can we do justice to those sect mates who have fallen?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then to Huang Miao and others, she said, “Junior Sister Huang, just ahead is the core area of the Bitao Mountain Range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our two teams should proceed together; it’s good to have each other’s backs, don’t you think?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said this actually for the sake of Huang Miao and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The core area of the Bitao Mountain Range is more dangerous than the outer regions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although half of Shen Yulin’s team members had fallen, those who had fallen were of weaker strength, and their overall strength hadn’t decreased much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Huang Miao and the others traveled with them, they could be protected by them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yulin had this intention, but some members behind her were not so willing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their view, taking Huang Miao and others along was like adding a burden; if danger arose, they might not even be able to save themselves, let alone protect Huang Miao and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Huang Miao’s thoughts, she naturally wished to accompany Shen Yulin and the others, but discerning and sensitive, she caught a hint of displeasure in the expressions of the members behind Shen Yulin, which made her hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We appreciate Sister Shen’s kindness,” Junior Sister Huang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bai intervened and said, “But I think that since we are here to cultivate, we should be brave in facing various difficulties and challenges.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then can we improve ourselves and achieve the purpose of our training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeking protection from others would defeat the purpose of cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you agree, Senior Sister Shen?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1291,"2026-06-10T05:14:39.270Z",1,"novelbin.me","3c91c2170e44c62ae8b38c296ca5e0a87d95d1c682ff761c157e91b6f3d88d6a","urban-extraordinary-immortal-doctor-chapter-979","urban-extraordinary-immortal-doctor-chapter-977",2473,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-extraordinary-immortal-doctor-cover.jpg"]
