nFang Yuan was puzzled.

nSuddenly, a loud shout came from afar.

n“Demoness! Don’t hurt my fellow Gu Immortal Sect disciple!”

nBai Yao looked towards the voice.

nA green-robed figure was charging down from the cliff with a Gu worm in their hand, giving off a shocking aura.

n“You came here with someone?” Bai Yao asked with a faint smile.

n“I didn't know either.”

nFang Yuan shook his head slightly, “It seems to be a senior in the sect, you should leave first.”

n“How will you explain it if we don’t fight?”

nBai Yao’s expression turned cold, and her Gu worm’s ability fully activated as she went forward to fight with the person who came.

nOnly then did Fang Yuan realize that the other party was the examiner Martial Uncle.

nAfter a few moves, Bai Yao was obviously at a disadvantage.

nHowever, she did not intend to fight to the death V1ith the examiner. After finding an opportunity to stagger away, she retracted her Gu worm into her acupoints and moved away.

n“Shameless old man, bullying the young, I won’t play with you anymore!”

n“You want to leave?”

nThe examiner was to chase after her when Fang Yuan hurriedly coughed twice, looking weak.

nOnly then did he give up and came over to check on Fang Yuan’s condition.

n“Martial Nephew Fang, How are you?”

n“It’s nothing serious, it’s just a backlash from the death of my Gu worm..”

nThis isn’t a small matter, can you still move?”

nFang Yuan lightly and asked, “Martial Uncle, why are you here?”

n‘The sect master sent an urgent order for me to come dovvm the mountain to look for you. I couldn’t find you in Fanshu Citys inn, so I came over to take a look when I heard some movement, I didn’t expect to meet you here.”

nThe examiner frovmed as he scanned the surroundings. “That demoness’ methods are actually so cruel, killing so many innocent mortals. ”

nAs he he paused and asked, “Oh right, Martial Nephew Fang, Why did you come here and run into someone from the Gu Sect?”

n“It’s a long story…”

nFang Yuan for a moment, but in the end, he still said seriously,

n“Martial Uncle, the one who refined Gu worms with living here is not that woman, but… our Zhang Wenbin”

n“What!”

nThe examiner was obviously by this news, and he confirmed it again in disbelief, The Zhang Wenbin you mentioned is the Fourth Elder’s personal disciple, the one who is known as one of the three experts of the younger generation in the inner sect, Zhang Wenbin?”

nFang Yuan nodded with a serious expression.

nThis matter could not hidden. It was to just say it out loud, otherwise the sect would get involved in the investigation and he would be in trouble.

nIt just so happened that Zhang Wenbin violated the sect’s rules and did something that everyone was angry about, and Fang Yuan was not really the one who killed him.

nNo matter if it was the Fourth Elder or the sect, they could not blame him.

nThen, he told them about the incident where he accidentally heard about Zhang Wenbin conspiring with someone from the Gu Demon Sect on the flower boat.

nOf course, he omitted a lot of details as well as his interactions with Bai Yao.

nBut with the current situation, it was easy to connect the cause and effect of the matter.

nThe examiner was silent for a while, then he helped Fang Yuan up with a

nIt sounded like Zhang Wenbin was colluding with the Gu Demon Sect because of his position.

nFang Yuan was suspicious, and Zhang Wenbin was caught red handed today.

nHe took down Zhang Wenbin and was prepared to hand him over to the sect for punishment.

nIn the end, Zhang Wenbin retaliated on the verge of death and ended up self destructing.

nFrom a simple point of view , it made sense.

nHowever…

nThe lack of details made it seem suspicious.

nThere were many things that could not explained.

nThe assessment officer pondered for a long time looking at Fang Yuan.

"This matter involves a lot of things… If you are healthy, how about returning to Fanshu City with me?”

n“Aren’t things in a hurry over at Masters side.„”

n“The Zhang clan has quite a bit of power in the capital. We must investigate thoroughly and report back to the sect master to handle the follow-up matters.

nThere’s no harm in waiting for another two days.”

nFang Yuan could hear that the examiner didn’t completely trust his one-sided words and was prepared to go to Fanshu City to investigate.

nThis was a good thing.

nOf course, he wouldn’t refuse.

nZhang Wenbin’s whereabouts were strange and couldn’t investigated.

nFang Yuan had basically hanging out with Li Tongzhou these past few days, and he was also at the auction. Even Zhao Hede could be his witness, so he wasn’t flustered at all.

nThere was also the examiner helping him with the follow-up matters, saving him the trouble of explaining himself.

nHe put away the jar containing the flesh and of the Bloodthirsty Gu and followed the examiner back to Fanshu City.

nThe examiner went to the inn alone to investigate, while Fang Yuan went to the Xu Manor.

nOn the way, he encountered an interesting matter.

nThere were many Gu masters standing at the notice board in the city, discussing his name.

n“Hey, Iook, the Prodigy Roll’s ranking has changed!”

n“Aren’t changes common, why are you making a fuss?”

n“Look closely at the eighty-seventh place , this Fang Yuan is only at the fourth

nlayer of the Enlightenment Realm! ”

n“Fourth layer of Enlightenment Realm? You’re joking. This is the Prodigy Roll, only those who are at the peak below twenty-five years old and are at least at the sixth layer of the Enlightenment Realm can get on the Prodigy Roll. How can he casually challenge someone of a higher cultivation level

n“If you don’t believe me, Gu Immortal Sect, Fang Yuan, these five words are written clearly. ”

n“My god, it is true, I have never heard of this person before, where did he suddenly come from?”

n“In the entire Prodigy Roll, there are countless people who can challenge someone of a higher cultivation level. He should be a core disciple of the Gu Immortal Sect, right?”

n“l have a distant cousin cultivates in the Gu Immortal A few days ago when he went back to visit his relatives, he mentioned that their sect had a fierce person, he broke the record of many years of the outer competition and was promoted to the inner sect, and he even participated in the Dao seeking trial and was chosen by Gu Zhenren, I wonder if it was him.”

n“It’s most likely him, otherwise, whose disciple would have such strength?”

n“So he’s a direct disciple of Gu Zhenren, no wonder…”

nFang Yuan retracted his attention and continued on his journey.

nIt seemed like he had gradually some fame in the secular world.

nIf that was the case, then Vice City Lord Xu’s matter would be much easier to handle.

nAfter arriving at their destination, the Xu Manor still maintained its strict defense.

nIt was estimated that they would have to live in this kind of tense atmosphere every day resolving the problems of the guardians’ relatives.

nFang Yuan had another discussion with Vice City Lord Xu, asking him to publicize his identity. However, the other party’s attitude was still the same as before.

n“Fang my friend, you are already the guardian of our Xu clan. I can’t do something to provoke more hatred and trouble for you just because you stood up for our Xu Residence.”

nFang Yuan smiled. “Vice City Lord Xu, have you forgotten that I just made it on to the Prodigy Roll a few days ago? If they want to cause trouble for me, you have to consider whether you have the ability or not.”

nVice City Lord Xu’s eyes lit up when he heard this.

nThat’s right!

nPreviously, Fang Yuan was just an unknown kid. If he had publicized Fang Yuan’s name, he would naturally cause trouble for him.

nBut now it was different.

nHe was ranked eighty-seventh on the Prodigy Roll.

nNot to mention these lone cultivators, even an on the Human roll or the

nEarth Roll had to consider whether they had the ability to challenge the Prodigy Roll.

nThe Prodigy Roll represented the strongest hundred among the countless disciples of thousands of in Yan Shen Empire!

nThinking of this, Vice City Lord Xu felt much better.

nThese days, there were many Gu masters in the city who paid attention to the changes in the Prodigy Roll. The more Fang Yuan’s reputation spread, the the deterrence effect.

nVice City Lord Xu’s thoughts moved, and he suggested, “Fang my friend, if you do not mind, can I make some adjustments and let the entire Yan Shen Empire know of your existence?”

n
