Chapter 141: Chapter 141: Yu Qiufan l s Actions

Translator: 549690339

The young man from the Martial Sect was taken aback, unclear why Fang Lin was asking this question, and didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

Seeing him stunned and silent, Fang Lin raised the corner of his mouth: “You are smarter than Wang Xuanlong.”

Hearing this, the young man from the Martial Sect didn’t know whether to laugh or cry and could only nod rigidly.

The crowd began to view Fang Lin differently, with more people revealing awe in their eyes.

Both Meng Chaoyang and Yu Qiufan looked at Fang Lin with a mix of complex feelings and admiration.

In just over a year since he joined the sect, Fang Lin had risen from an unknown Pill Apprentice to possess his current strength, which felt somewhat surreal.

Although Fang Lin was still considered a junior disciple, nobody dared to treat him as such anymore.

Without considering the forces behind them, Fang Lin was now wholly overqualified to surpass the Four Elites of the Pill Sect.

The most affected amongst them was Yu Qiufan.

At least until the competition with the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect, Yu Qiufan hadn’t considered Fang Lin to be significant and hence hadn’t made any significant moves against him.

But now, before he realized it, Fang Lin had become so powerful that Yu Qiufan completely dismissed the idea of opposing him.

Fang Lin noticed the expressions of everyone around him, but in his heart, he was quite calm since this was exactly what he had expected.

In this Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest meeting, not only were Yu Qiufan and Ding Xuanji planning to confront Fang Lin, but Fang Lin also intended to step on Ding Xuanji and Yu Qiufan to rise to power.

To simply observe until he took startling action was Fang Lin’s plan.

The man to witness his powers was, unfortunately, Ding Xuanji.

Fang Lin demonstrated his strength to show that he was no longer the same person he was and was not to be taken lightly.

Now it seemed that Fang Lin had achieved his goal, and through this event, Fang Lin’s reputation within the Pill Sect would rise to the same level as the Four Elites of the Pill Sect, if not surpass them.

As for the Martial Sect, Fang Lin didn’t care about his reputation, but he wanted those from the Martial Sect to understand that he was not to be trifled with.

“Ahem, as everyone is here, let’s start this Bamboo Appreciation meeting,”

Meng Chaoyang cleared his throat, diverting everyone’s attention to himself.

Everyone snapped back to reality, although the scene of Fang Lin beating Ding Xuanji was shocking, they had come to participate in the Bamboo Appreciation meeting today.

Fang Lin also acted as if nothing had happened, chatting and laughing with everyone, although his gaze unintentionally swept towards Yu Qiufan.

Of course, Yu Qiufan noticed, his heart filled with tension, understanding that while Fang Lin hadn’t made a move on him, he was giving him a warning.

The so-called Bamboo Appreciation meeting was a social gathering, where people would condescendingly discuss the bamboos in the Ten Thousand Bamboo Forest, then each would display some items for others to appreciate. If anyone was interested, they could exchange items of the same value.

In other words, this Bamboo Appreciation meeting was also a small-scale trade fair where disciples of the Pill Sect and the Martial Sect could freely trade without the constraints of the sect rules.

Of course, such free opportunities were few and far between each year, so everyone present at this Bamboo Appreciation meeting cherished the opportunity, intending to exchange some desired items during the meeting. Especially the Martial Sect disciples, their need for pills was vast. However,

the usual restrictions to purchase pills were too stringent, and they could not get enough pills.

Therefore, the Martial Sect disciples who could participate in this Bamboo Appreciation meeting, all came prepared.

Fang Lin didn’t quite understand the actual context of this Bamboo Appreciation meeting, so he didn’t bring anything with him. Therefore, in this trade fair, he could only be an observer, which caused him to sigh regretfully.

On the other hand, Dugu Nian had many treasures on him, and he traded with two Martial Sect disciples, leaving them beaming with joy.

“Brother Fang, I have an item here that I wish to exchange with you. Would you do me the honor?” While Fang Lin was secretly regretting not being able to participate in the trading, Yu Qiufan quietly came over to him and said with a smile.

Fang Lin didn’t expect him to approach and asked curiously out of curiosity: “What do you want to exchange with me?”

Looking at Fang Lin, Yu Qiufan spoke earnestly, “I just want to exchange for your forgiveness.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin understood that Yu Qiufan was using the guise of an exchange to ease the tension between them.

Having guessed his intentions, Fang Lin also laughed, saying, “Then I wonder what good items Brother Yu has prepared?”

Seeing the smile on Fang Lin’s face, Yu Qiufan knew that Fang Lin wasn’t a fool and must have understood his intentions.

Immediately, Yu Qiufan smiled mysteriously and took out a jade bottle from his Nine Palace Bag, carefully handing it to Fang Lin.

“Please take a look, Brother Fang. I had to go through great lengths to get this,” said Yu Qiufan.

Fang Lin took the jade bottle without fear of any trickery from Yu Qiufan and directly opened it for a look.

Inside the jade bottle were three pitch-black Demon Cores, and a strong Demon Qi instantly filled the air.

Fang Lin quickly stopped up the bottle, his face showing a hint of surprise.

“Demon Cores from Two-Times Transformation Demonic Beasts, indeed good items!” said Fang Lin, nodding.

Fang Lin knew at a glance that the three black Demon Cores in the bottle were taken from at least the first-stage Two-Times Transformation Demonic Beasts. These would be valuable to many Pill Refiners.

Demon Cores are the things most in demand by Pill Refiners other than medicinal ingredients, especially high-realm Demon Cores which are hard to come by.

After all, Demon Cores are taken from Demon Beasts, and Demon Beasts are hard to hunt, so Demon Cores are always considered precious and not easily traded amongst Pill Refiners.

These three Demon Cores of the Two-Times Transformation Realm were not something anyone could obtain. Yu Qiufan wouldn’t have been able to get them on his own.

Therefore, these three Demon Cores must have been given to him by his elders, and Yu Qiufan brought them to Fang Lin, hoping to use them to gain a chance at reconciliation.

From this, it could be seen that Yu Qiufan was not a simple character. Only someone with determination could offer such valuable items merely for a chance at reconciliation.

At least in Fang Lin’s view, Yu Qiufan was far superior to Ding Xuanji.

“No wonder Yu Qiufan has the most powerful position among the Four Elites of the Pill Sect. He indeed is not ordinary,” Fang Lin said to himself.

Yu Qiufan was a calculating and intelligent person. He realized it would be unwise to continue opposing Fang Lin in the future. Rather than making an enemy of such a formidable character, it would be better to turn him into a friend.

Moreover, Yu Qiufan admitted that there wasn’t a significant conflict between him and Fang Lin. The only point of contention seemed to have been Kang Lu. However, Kang Lu had already been killed by Gu Daofeng, and since there hadn’t been any direct conflict between the two, there was an opportunity to turn hostility into friendship..
