ld.It was Fang Yu."Sorry, I overslept." Fang Yu said to Yang Jian loudly.The audience fell silent, all eyes fixed on Fang Yu.Who is this mysterious figure who challenged Yang Jian to a duel as soon as..."No." Honglian brushed her bangs behind her ear and said.

"How did you get out" Fang Yu asked.

"It's too stuffy meditating inside. I just came out for some fresh air. What's the problem" Honglian rolled her eyes at Fangyu and said.

"Why do you always speak as if you're about to fight Is it related to the cultivation technique you practice" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.

"I don't need to cultivate any martial arts... Are you saying I have a bad temper" Honglian looked at Fang Yu, crossed her arms, and asked.

"If you're not practicing any cultivation techniques, then what are you doing in seclusion" Fang Yu asked curiously.

"I went into seclusion... simply to merge with the Phoenix's source." Honglian said.

"Haven't you finished merging yet" Fang Yu asked in surprise.

Upon hearing Fang Yu's tone, Honglian's brow furrowed, and she immediately felt a sense of humiliation at being looked down upon.

When she recalled the situation, she retorted with displeasure, "Did you fuse properly"

“I… I’m not sure either, but the Phoenix Origin is quiet now.” Fang Yu said.

Now, the dragon and phoenix origins within him have merged together, one gold, one red, forming a Taiji ball.

They are usually unnoticed and imperceptible in our daily lives.

So, Fang Yu couldn't determine if his fusion with the Phoenix Source had been completed, but at least...the Phoenix Source had resided quietly within him for a very long time.

"You can't possibly integrate the Phoenix's essence so quickly! That is the power of the Phoenix Clan's divine master! You, a mere human..." Honglian retorted stubbornly, "You can't possibly fuse it faster than me!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Yu merely gave a cold smile and said, "Without me, that insignificant human, you would have died in the Lingxu long ago. Let alone now, I'm providing you with such a good place to cultivate without even charging you..."

"It's not because of me that you had the chance to obtain the Phoenix Source!" Honglian became even more indignant, gritting her teeth and retorted.

"I don't care about the Phoenix Origin, but it insists on flying towards me. What can I do" Fang Yu spread his hands and said.

"You... You dare disrespect the will of our god!" Honglian glared at Fang Yu, her voice trembling with anger.

"The Phoenix has never respected my wishes..." Fang Yu shrugged and raised an eyebrow.

"You!" A surge of energy pulsed from Honglian's body, her eyes glowing with a faint red light.

The air around them immediately grew tense.

A wave of pressure spread outward.

Beside Zhao Zi Nan, seeing the two nearly coming to blows, her pretty face turned pale.

"Ice Heart Art!"

At this moment, a blue light flashed and appeared above Fang Yu and Honglian's heads.

A sphere of light, glowing with a blue hue, emanates a faint aura that instills an overwhelming sense of calmness and serenity.

The crimson glow in the pupil of the lotus eye gradually faded until it vanished.

Fang Yu remained composed. He hadn't really gotten angry, it was just a playful banter.

But he didn't expect Honglian to ignite like a gunpowder keg, instantly bursting into flames.

"Mr. Fang, Miss Honglian... please forgive me for overstepping my boundaries. I just didn't want the two of you to quarrel..." Ye Shengxue quickly stepped forward and said apologetically.

"Good job, no worries." Fang Yu said approvingly.

Her crimson breath gradually calmed, she looked at Fang Yu, then at Ye Shengxue, lowered her head slightly, and whispered, "I'm sorry... I don't know why..."

"Feeling out of control with your emotions" Fang Yu asked.

"...Um." Honglian raised her head, her face slightly flushed. "It just came on suddenly, and I got really angry, like I wanted to fight..."

"Not going well in seclusion" Fang Yu asked again.

"Then you've just suffered a mild case of going into obsession. You need to take some time away from cultivation first and focus your mind on other things." Fang Yu said.

"...Good," replied Honglian.

Seeing Red Lotus return to normal, Zhao Zi'nan on the side let out a sigh of relief.

Then she looked at Fang Yu again, and then turned to look at Honglian.

"Zinan, what's wrong" Ye Shengxue asked.

"No, nothing." Zhao Zinan secretly glanced at Fang Yu and said.

She wouldn't dare say it, Fang Yu gege's manner of speaking just now... was indeed quite annoying.

……

In the afternoon, Fang Yu was drinking tea on the top floor of the bamboo building, but the sound of a small wind chime came over.

"Master, someone has come to our door wanting to see you. This is the third time in three days."

"Third time" Fang Yu was taken aback and said, "Bring him before me."

"Okay."

After a few seconds, a figure appeared before Fang Yu.

This person clearly hadn't experienced such short-distance spatial teleportation before, and was completely bewildered.

While Fang Yu discovered this person to be someone he had met twice before at the Lin family, Lin Zhenxi.

At this moment, Lin Zhenxi's face was pale, his forehead covered in sweat, and his expression was filled with anxiety and uneasiness.

"What's wrong" Fang Yu asked.

Lin Zhenxi came to his senses and looked at Fang Yu, his eyes widening with hope. He said, "Fang, Fang sir, please save Zhi Lan's life!"

"Lin ZhiLan What's wrong with her" Fang Yu asked.

"Zhi Lan... It seems she went mad with her sword practice, and has been unconscious ever since. We called in several renowned doctors from Bei Du, but none could diagnose the cause!" Lin Zhenxi said.

"Another case of going overboard" Fang Yu frowned, asking, "When did it start"

"The night before last, Zhi Lan stayed in the training ground all night... I wanted to drop by and see her, only to find she was lying on the ground with blood still at the corner of her mouth," Lin Zhenxi said. "Zhi Lan's breathing is getting weaker and weaker now, please, Master Fang, save Zhi Lan's life!"

Fang Yu first went to the small forest behind and retrieved the Void Spirit Ring he had given Su Lengyun. Then, he returned to the bamboo house's rooftop, brought Lin Zhenxi along, and teleported together towards the Lin Family.

"Whoosh!"

In the blink of an eye, Fang Yu and Lin Zhenxi arrived at the Lin family.

Although Lin Zhenxi was surprised by Fang Yu's free-willed teleportation, he knew what mattered most right now.

"Master Fang, please follow me."

Lin Zhenxi took Fang Yu and walked toward the interior of the Lin family.

As you arrive at a house on the left side of the Lin family estate, you'll see a large group of Lin family members gathered there.

They were clearly all worried about Lin Zhi'lan's situation.

Upon seeing Fang Yu arrive, a large group of Lin family members displayed a variety of expressions.

Some people bowed respectfully, while others did not. They just stared at Fang Yu with slightly unkind eyes.

After all, Lin Zhi'an only walked the path of going mad after practicing the sword manual given by Fang Yu, leading to this situation.

The problem lies with Fang Yu!

Fang Yu ignored the group of people and walked straight towards the door.

Before I even stepped inside, a person walked up and blocked my way.

This is a young man, handsome.

More importantly, he is not very old, but his cultivation has already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul period.

Such cultivation level must surely ascend the Heavenly Ranking, and the ranking won't be low.

"Zhenxu, what are you doing Quickly let Master Fang come in and take a look at Zhi Lan's condition!" Lin Zhenxi's face changed, he said.

Lin Zhenxu looked at Fang Yu, her eyes turning cold as she said, "That sword manual, was it given to Zhi'lan by this person"

"It's Truethread! This is Fang Da-ren!" said Lin Zhenxi.

"I know, you all fear him. But... I don't believe him." Lin Zhenxu narrowed her eyes at Fang Yu and said coldly, "How could a stranger so easily teach Zhi Lan swordsmanship"

Fan Yu looked at Lin Zhenxu and smiled faintly, "You're right, things like this should indeed be handled with caution."

Lin Zhenxu's eyes grew colder and colder as he said, "I was in seclusion recently and didn't know what happened outside... If I had known, I would have stopped the head of the family."

"Do you think Lin Zhengxiong did the wrong thing" Fang Yu asked.

"Yes, one shouldn't trust a stranger so easily." Lin Zhenxu said.

"Then what do you want to do now Don't let me save Lin Zhi Lan" Fang Yu asked.

"Are you truly trying to save her Or are you trying to harm her!" Lin Zhenxu asked coldly.

"Be outrageous! Do you know what you're saying!" Lin Zhenxi roared, "If Sir Fang truly wanted to harm Zhi Lan, or even our Lin family, would he need to use such underhanded tactics!"

At the sound of these words, not only Lin Zhenxu's face, but also those of many Lin family members behind him, changed.

Indeed... Fang Yu even dared to go to the Wang family alone, thus causing the Wang family to fall from their pedestal.d ... didn't see much of a change.A guttural roar erupted from his throat, his eyes fixed on Fang Yu, wide with astonishment, red light flaring within them."This is what you brought upon yourself. Yo...
