Chapter #37. HelpingTian Fan and Lien Wei couldn't stop laughing after the departure of the Wolf Sect disciples. They had forgotten that there were still five young women behind them, who were observing their absurd behavior earlier.The five young female disciples of the White Crane Sect were still gaping with flushed faces, recalling what they had just witnessed. What they would surely remember was how nine male cultivators ran around naked. What would the world say if this news spread?Tian Fan suddenly realized that there were still five women standing behind them, watching their antics."Uh, excuse me, Wei," Tian Fan said, giving a subtle eye signal towards the five women."Oh, right, I forgot. So, what do you think, my friend? Should we make them run like those men?" Lien Wei said mischievously, giving them a naughty look.Tian Fan, hearing Lien Wei's words, choked and coughed. Meanwhile, the five young women blushed even more, hearing Lien Wei's suggestive words.Lien Wei hims
Chapter #38. Return to the CapitalAfter several days of travel, Tian Fan and Lien Wei finally exited the Fire Valley. They weren't in a hurry to return to the capital."Tian Fan, what are your plans now? The entrance exams for the Sun Sect are still about a month away," Lien Wei asked."I think I'll visit the Lotus Pavilion first to buy some herbal ingredients and go to the royal library. What about you, Lien Wei?""Of course, I'll accompany you," he replied promptly."Do you not want to go back and wait at your residence? I'll join you when it's time for the exams. How does that sound?""No, I'd rather go with you. In fact, I'd be bored if I went back home, and don't tell me to go home alone; we'll return together. My house is your house, too, my friend. If I go back without you, my father will be furious.""Oh, right, I forgot. I'm sure a lot of people will be waiting for you if we go back together. I don't want to be the target of all kinds of questions," Tian Fan said hesitantly.
Chapter #39. The Royal LibraryWith the royal token given by the queen and accompanied by Lien Wei, the son of a general, Tian Fan easily gained access to the royal library.Tian Fan went straight to the section on medical records and treatments. There, he found shelves that were five meters tall and twenty meters long, filled with hundreds of records on medicinal plants, herbs, and royal family medical records. He began reading them one by one.In just a matter of incense sticks burning, he had already gone through dozens of books. Lien Wei, who was watching Tian Fan, could only shake his head in amazement."When he's facing monsters or enemies, his expression turns fierce. When he's dealing with alchemy and medicine, his face is serious. But when he's in front of books, it's like he's found a toy," he mumbled quietly."Are you talking about that person?" a woman's voice sounded next to him.Lien Wei was clearly startled by the young woman next to him."Why are you so surprised, like
Chapter #40. The Dumpling IncidentAs the noon approached, Tian Fan finished all the notes he had made in the royal library. He and Lien Wei then left the library and prepared to head to General Lien Zhong's residence.As they exited the royal library, two horse-drawn carriages were waiting for them in the library's courtyard. Tian Fan and Lien Wei were about to step into the carriages when they noticed two young ladies engaged in an argument near the library's exit. The two girls were Sun Jialin and Mei Yin.Seeing Tian Fan and Lien Wei coming out, the two girls hurriedly approached them."Brother-in-law, you've already come out. Let me escort you back home. It happens that I will be visiting my mother, who is currently at General Zhong's residence," Sun Jialin said quickly."Let me do it," Mei Yin began to speak but hesitated, "Uh, that is... my parents have asked me to pick up Master and escort him to General Zhong's residence," she said awkwardly.Lien Wei burst into laughter at t
Chapter #41. General Lien Zhong's ResidenceSun Jialin, Mei Yin, and Lien Wei took their seats behind their respective families, while Tian Fan was given a seat next to the three level-3 alchemist masters.Tian Fan felt a bit awkward as the three alchemist masters stared at him. He knew that they, especially Cao Ren and Shi Shui, probably sensed some irritation due to his recent disappearance.Tian Fan approached the trio and offered a hesitant smile. "Master Cao Ren, Master Shi Shui, Master Dong Fang, congratulations on your advancements," he said sincerely, attempting to ease the awkwardness.Shi Shui stood up from his seat and grabbed Tian Fan firmly by the collar with his left hand, while his right hand pulled Tian Fan's ear with force. "What did you just say, brat? Call me 'elder brother'! Say it! 'Elder brother'!" he scolded with a stern expression while tightening his grip.Tian Fan found it difficult to breathe, not because of the ear-pulling, but because his face was pressed
Chapter 42. Not Just PillsIn an open courtyard, Lien Wei instructed the servants and soldiers at General Zhong's residence to create a large pool according to Tian Fan's request.The pool was rectangular, measuring 20 meters in length, 10 meters in width, and 1 meter in depth. It was divided into two halves with a partition in the middle. Due to the involvement of many people, the construction of this minimalistic pool was completed in just four incense sticks' time.Everyone in the hall left the room to witness the process of creating this medicinal pool, as they were curious about Tian Fan's new method."Junior, why didn't you use dantian-cleansing pills to heal Lady Zhu?" Master Dong Fang asked out of curiosity.All eyes turned to Tian Fan, as they had just heard the name of the pills mentioned by Master Dong Fang."Because Lady Zhu has already consumed too many pills, I didn't want to take the risk of adding more burden to her body, even though dantian-cleansing pills could poten
Chapter #43. Request"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your promotion to emperor realm," said everyone in the poolSun Lang nodded and cupped his hands "thank you everyone"Sun Lang then looked at Tian Fan with a deep gaze."This king expressed his gratitude to master Fan, so how can this king repay master's help, please state your request," said the king calmly"Then this junior will not hesitate, Your Majesty, junior has 3 requests,""Whatever it is, as long as it doesn't conflict with principles, and this king can fulfill it, I will try," said Sun Lang"First, junior would like to ask His Majesty to order everyone here not to reveal the existence of this pool, secondly, Junior would like to borrow some of His Majesty's personal bodyguards for the next few days to practice sparring with Junior and thirdly, Junior would ask His Majesty and everyone Those present here did not mention this junior's exit status," Tian Fan said bluntly"That's all?" asked Sun Lang in disbelief"That's r
Chapter 44. Sparring Practice 1Early in the morning, Tian Fan left the room and headed to the hill behind General Lien Zhong's residenceTian Fan immediately carried out his routine activities, physical training, but currently Tian Fan is adding to his training menu by increasing the weight of his training stones twice as much as usual.After that, in the second session, Tian Fan trained his physique and mid-level earth realm using weights with 10 times the weightfor a cultivator, the higher the realm, the higher and greater the strength. If an ordinary person can lift a weight as heavy as his body, then a black realm cultivator can lift a weight two to three times his body weight.Tian Fan, who was currently at the mid-level earth realm with his strength, could easily lift a weight of 500 kg with one handSo in order to maximize his body strength and realm strength, Tian Fan tried to train using 5 ton weightsThe goal is clear, so that the body's strength and realm strength can be c
