Chapter #145. Enemy of an Enemy is a FriendAlthough not overt, Tian Fan could sense an undercurrent of hatred toward the Zhao and Chong families in the conversations between the Yu and Wang families.Observing this, Tian Fan took the initiative to delve deeper into what was happening among them."Seniors, pardon me for being forward, but what's happening with Brother Dunrui? I noticed his condition isn't quite well," Tian Fan started a new conversation.Wang Xuemin and Yu Fei, understanding that Tian Fan wasn't from the Central Continent's families, had no issue sharing the information. Moreover, they found comfort in conversing with Tian Fan. Despite his young age, his knowledge impressed everyone."Initially, we were heading to the Northern Continent to meet the fourth-star, third-grade master Ben Chong, to treat Wang Dunrui, who was poisoned by someone," explained Wang Xuemin."I've heard news that Master Chong recently cured someone from a dangerous brain toxin. When we met and a
Chapter #146. Tying SilentlyWang Dunrui returned to the room after cleaning up and changing his clothes. Everyone could notice a significant change in Wang Dunrui's face. The 25-year-old man immediately approached Tian Fan and showed his respect to his miraculous junior."Master Fan, thank you for your help. Wang Dunrui and the Wang family are indebted to Master Fan," Dunrui said politely while cupping his hands toward Tian Fan."Can we dispense with this formality, senior? This is just one of my duties as a physician," Tian Fan said casually."Okay, then. I don't want to bore you or make it awkward, although it feels strange for me to call you 'junior,'" Dunrui expressed awkwardly.Finally, they all complied with Tian Fan's preference, calling him as usual, and they resumed their previously interrupted conversation.After engaging in a lengthy conversation where Tian Fan acquired a lot of information, Tian Fan excused himself to return to his room. His objective had been accomplishe
Chapter #147. Biju CityA month passed quickly, and the ship Tian Fan boarded finally arrived at Hong City, one of the farthest cities in the Chao Empire region. Tian Fan emerged from his little world just before the ship reached Hong City.As he descended from the ship, Yu Fei and Wang Dunrui, along with their entourage, were eagerly waiting for Tian Fan at the ship's exit."Greetings, seniors, everyone," Tian Fan said with a cheerful smile."Greetings, Grandmaster Fan," Yu Fei said softly, looking around, afraid her words might be overheard by others."Seniors, please, just call me 'junior' as usual. Besides, I'm not what you mentioned earlier," Tian Fan humbly replied."Senior, could you please tell me the direction to Biju City and how far it is from Hong City?" Tian Fan asked."Biju City is to the east of Hong City. With regular travel, it might take around fifteen days, but with your flying ability, junior might cover it in two days.""Do you need...""No need, senior, thank you
Chapter #148. The White Lotus GroupTian Fan drew his sword from its sheath, directing it towards the people who had been pressuring him earlier."Pressure your aura at me again! I guarantee my sword will be covered in the blood of those who dared to challenge me!" Tian Fan exclaimed loudly, emanating a killing aura.Everyone there was incensed seeing Tian Fan boldly challenging everyone present."He's got guts, but unfortunately, he doesn't measure himself or the situation," remarked one young man sitting in a corner of the inn.Some individuals who had been pressuring Tian Fan with their auras from the beginning suddenly stood up. The young men from several major sects immediately prepared to attack Tian Fan. Being at the initial and middle Emperor levels, they felt the need to defend their pride because Tian Fan's challenge was clearly aimed at them."You're so arrogant, challenging us! Especially when you're alone!" said one of the young men who had earlier exerted his aura agains
Chapter #149. Xiao and TianToday was the day the ancient tomb was opened. All young men and women from major, intermediate, and minor sects, young lords and ladies, as well as independent cultivators, flocked to the entrance of the ancient tomb.According to circulating rumors, the ancient tomb was the burial site of a late-stage immortal. However, some believed it belonged to a cultivator whose realm surpassed that of an immortal.Tian Fan emerged from his room with a calm and composed demeanor. As he stepped out, he noticed Manager Zu standing in front of his room."Good morning, Master Fan.""Good morning, Manager Zu. It seems I should congratulate you first on your cultivation advancement," Tian Fan said warmly."All thanks to the pills from Master Fan, Zu should be the one expressing gratitude," Manager Zu replied politely."Master Fan, Zu has done what you asked for. Here are their replies," Manager Zu said softly, handing a letter to Tian Fan.Tian Fan read the message and smi
Chapter #150. Ancient TombTian Fan and the Tian Tse group approached a tent built to the west of the ancient tomb. Many cultivators with the Zhao symbol were present inside the tent.(Hmm, looks like there are some smart individuals in the Zhao group too. I need to be a bit cautious.)Tian Fan could deduce this because he had read books on war strategy, and what the Zhao coalition group was doing was one of those strategies. By displaying their strength at the outset, they sought to crush the psychological defenses of other groups, making them more wary of the Zhao coalition in the future.Tian Tse entered the tent, where sect disciples, young masters, and misses were gathered. Besides them, there were several elders accompanying them."The awaited one has finally arrived. Welcome, Young Master Tian Tse," said one of the young men sitting at the highest spot in the tent."It seems we arrived the latest. Please forgive our delay," Tian Tse said with authority."You act like someone im
Chapter #151. Show offFinally, Zhao Ze's group was forced to fight against the swarm of beasts, including the hundreds of black bee beasts. As Tian Fan had suspected, Zhao Ze and his elite team had special weapons to counter the horde of beasts.Reluctantly, they ventured into the dark forest to reach their first goal. Tian Fan and the others grimaced at what they saw; it was clear that Zhao Ze and his group intended harm upon them."Let's move! Don't waste the efforts of Young Master Zhao in clearing the way for us," said Tian Fan, nonchalantly.This statement was met with wry smiles from everyone. They quickly followed behind Zhao's group.The contrast was stark. Zhao's group suffered many casualties among their hired guards and cultivators, leaving only the core team and elites from the three families surviving the onslaught of the beasts.In contrast, Tian Fan's group moved forward smoothly, without a single member being injured.Zhao's group finally arrived at their first destin
Chapter #152. Map FragmentZhao Ze went berserk and prepared to attack Tian Fan, but the remaining elite guards held him back. Despite Zhao Ze and the two remaining guards launching an attack on Tian Fan, they hesitated to win the fight, especially now that Tian Fan's group outnumbered theirs. Additionally, with Zi Han and Tang Bin defecting, along with two other companions, it automatically weakened them further.Finally, Zhao Ze and the others chose to leave after Zhao Ze's elite guards spoke to him."I'll let you go for now. At least, I'll disrupt your family's plans with this place," murmured Tian Fan.After Zhao Ze's group left, Tian Fan and the geniuses in his group joyfully harvested the spirit plant, Balakacida, from the grassy field. They evenly distributed the acquired spirit plants, ensuring fairness in the harvesting process.Balakacida plants serve as meridian openers. When a cultivator consumes these pills, they can open fifty to a hundred closed small meridians.Moreove
