Roar!
In the forest, a fat black bear was two meters tall when it stood up like a human.
It roared at Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing, but the two were indifferent.
The black bear was enraged, and ran towards the two youngsters on all fours.
Don't be fooled by the bear's clumsy appearance, its running speed was extremely fast. Usually twice that of a human.
The black bear was only fifty steps away from him, but Fang Yuan's lips curled into a smile of success.
Bam.
An explosion resounded, and soil flew everywhere.
The black bear let out a miserable howl, as if it was hit in the head, and its charge was immediately halted.
It was infuriated by the sudden attack. It quickly adjusted its direction, and charged towards Fang Yuan again.
But just ten steps later, another explosion occurred on the ground.
Roar!
The black bear's chest was covered in blood, and its eyes were bloodshot as it furiously pounced again.
"Wild beasts will always be wild beasts, lacking intelligence." Fang Yuan sighed, and turned around to retreat.
The black bear chased relentlessly from behind, but every few steps it took, it would detonate an explosion.
After dozens of steps, the black bear's body was covered in injuries, and none of its fur was intact. Its four limbs were crippled, and it was limping, no longer as ferocious as before.
Its anger subsided, and its survival instincts took over.
Even though Fang Yuan was not more than twenty steps away from it. But it chose to retreat.
But Fang Yuan had already predicted its retreat direction, and dug a deep hole along the way, burying at least five charred thunder potato Gu.
Bam!
A loud sound, and the battle ended.
At the same time, a wisp of smoke floated in the tent.
Within the smoke, images flickered, showing the entire process of Fang Yuan's battle.
"Elder Mo Xing, what do you think?" Seeing the battle end, Bai clan leader asked.
In the entire tent, there were only her and Bai Mo Xing.
"If I am not wrong, this Guyue clan young master should be using a charred thunder potato Gu, right? This Gu is a one time consumable, buried in the ground and growing by absorbing the earth's energy, then exploding after being shaken. It is quite powerful among Rank two Gu worms. However, this Gu would be greatly weakened in Bai Gu mountain. There was no soil on the White Bone Mountain. Even the mountain rocks were bones. The Charred Thunder Potato Gu cannot be planted at all. "Bai Mo Xing pondered.
The Hundred Clans Clan Leader shook her head. "Your analysis is correct, but that's not what I'm focusing on. Did you notice, from the time he buried the Charred Thunder Potato Gu to the end of the battle, it was all done by Fangzheng alone? He clearly had a rank three guard beside him, and it was very taxing for him to use the rank two charred thunder potato Gu. Every time he buried a stone, he would have to use a Yuan stone to recover his zhenyuan. But he insisted on doing it himself. What does this mean? "
Bai Mo Xing's eyes lit up: "I understand. This Fangzheng was a man of integrity and was not the kind of person who would resort to trickery. He agreed to participate in the hunt. Even if it would be troublesome and tiring, he doesn't want to use external forces to cheat. "
"Crafty and deceitful people usually don't have strong wills. A righteous man is always steadfast. If we want to find the location of the spirit spring from these two, the best way is to beat them with our wits. Hehe, I am even more confident in last night's plan. "Bai Clan Leader laughed.
…
"I did not disappoint you." Fifteen minutes later, Fang Yuan handed a tattered bear skin to Bai Clan Leader.
"Hehehe, in such a short amount of time, you managed to kill an adult black bear. As expected of the Gu Yue clan's young master." The Bai clan leader's face revealed an appropriate amount of surprise, which quickly turned into a smile.
"Nephew, you can go back and rest, the Green Copper Relic Gu will be delivered soon."
"Thank you clan leader, junior will take his leave."
Fang Yuan and Bai Ning Bing left the central tent and returned to their residence last night.
A moment later, a Gu Master delivered the Green Copper Relic Gu.
Fang Yuan took it and immediately used it in the tent, advancing his cultivation to upper stage from middle stage.
A Gu Master's small realm was easy to break through, it was a matter of painstaking effort. But large realms needed the support of aptitude.
Relic Gu, Stone Aperture Gu, many Gu worms could allow a Gu Master to forgo painstaking effort and raise their cultivation in a short period of time.
However, rank one upper stage was still rank one, such a small increase could not change the current situation.
At night, Bai Clan Leader set up a banquet in the tent and invited Fang and Bai.
Bai Clan had a tradition; during the hunting competition, there would be a bonfire banquet every day. The super large bonfire banquet would be held outdoors in the camp. As for the small banquet in the central tent, only the top few of the competition would be invited.
Fang and Bai, because of their different statuses, were still guests.
"Come, let me introduce our tribe's hope star to nephew. You youngsters should get to know each other. "During the banquet, Bai Mo Xing started the conversation.
In the central tent, there were four youngsters.
Two males and two females, without exception, were all rank three.
One of the males was Bai Mo Xing's nephew, called Bai Mo Ting. He had a thin body and was third place on the first day of hunting.
Of the two females, one was called Bai Cao Shui, she had a sloppy appearance but was fourth. The other was called Bai Lian, she had a beautiful appearance with white skin and thick and dense eyelashes. She had a fresh and natural aura and was the publicly recognized beauty of the Bai clan.
The two girls sat next to each other, forming a sharp contrast.
"Bai Zhan Lie greets the two esteemed guests." The last young male Gu Master took the initiative to speak, taking over Bai Mo Xing's words.
He had a tall and sturdy body, filled with arrogance and surging battle intent. His gaze swept past Fang and Bai, pausing on Fang Yuan for a moment, revealing a disdainful smile. However, his gaze was fixated on Bai Ning Bing.
Bai Ning Bing was like an ice fairy, with silver hair and blue eyes, her beauty surpassed Bai Lian by a head. More importantly, she had rank three peak stage cultivation, attracting Bai Zhan Lie's interest.
He snorted: "It seems in your Guyue tribe, there are more yin and less yang?"
Bai Ning Bing's expression was like ice, not changing at all.
Fang Yuan's expression turned cold and ugly.
Bai clan leader laughed: "This is the number one expert of the younger generation in our tribe. Nephew, don't blame me, I have always spoken like this. "
"I don't dare." Fang Yuan's lips curled as he faced Bai clan leader: "Brother Zhan Lie is indeed a dragon among men, Fangzheng admires you."
His tone was complex, but he displayed it perfectly. There was the patience of living under someone else's roof, the helplessness of having weak cultivation, and the unresigned arrogance of a young man.
Even Bai Ning Bing could not help but raise her eyebrows.
Bai Zhan Lie snorted coldly. Fang Yuan sneered in his heart.
He knew of Bai clan's difficult situation, but Bai clan did not know his true background. Although the situation was disadvantageous to him, Fang Yuan firmly held the advantage in information.
"How to use this advantage is the key to escaping. Green copper relic Gu is a good sign, this shows that Bai clan is wary of the non-existent Guyue troop. They don't want to use force, and want to use schemes to deceive. Is this Bai Zhan Lie the next chess piece of Bai clan? Thinking about it carefully, his words seemed too forceful. "
"If he really is the next chess piece of Bai clan, it will be somewhat troublesome. Why don't I personally give my 'weakness' to the other party, and reveal my 'weakness' … "
If Bai clan casually set up traps like this, Fang Yuan would no doubt become more and more passive.
Thus, he might as well give the other party a weakness, and purposely expose some fake weaknesses, and fight for some 'initiative' in disguise.
Thinking of this, Fang Yuan's gaze swept through the tent, and immediately came up with a plan.
He looked at Bai Lian opposite him.
After staring for a while, Bai Lian seemed to sense Fang Yuan's gaze, and Fang Yuan turned his gaze away, looking elsewhere.
As the banquet continued, Fang Yuan stole glances at Bai Lian from time to time, but avoided eye contact with Bai Lian.
During the latter half of the banquet, Fang Yuan kept peeking at her, and the frequency increased.
This scene was witnessed by the Hundred Families Clan Leader and some of the elders.
The clan elders revealed smiles in their eyes.
It was normal for a young man to be in love. Bai Lian was the clan flower of Bai clan, it was natural for her to attract the attention of Guyue clan's young master.
After the banquet ended, Bai Mo Xing excitedly requested to see the clan leader: "Clan leader, did you see the scene during the banquet?"
Bai clan leader nodded with a smile: "Let me make some more plans."
The night was silent.
On the second day of the hunt, Bai clan leader summoned Fang Yuan again, and asked Fang Yuan to hunt an earth horn rhinoceros.
Fang Yuan used the same trick, using charred thunder potato Gu to blast the earth horn rhinoceros, and brought back the rhinoceros horn.
After Bai clan leader praised him, she rewarded him with a clearing heat Gu.
Clearing heat Gu was like a beetle fossil, with a translucent jade-like texture. Holding it in his hand, he could feel a cool air.
This Gu was specialized in detoxification, and was a rank two healing Gu.
After obtaining this Gu, Fang Yuan finally made up for his greatest weakness.
At the day of the bonfire banquet.
"This is my son, and this is my daughter. Bai Sheng, Bai Hua, stand up and offer a toast to this brother. "Bai clan leader said.
A pair of twins stood up and raised their wine cups like adults, saying together: "Bai Sheng (Bai Hua) offers a toast to young master Guyue."
They slightly bowed with a solemn expression, showing that they had good upbringing, without the slightest bit of mischievousness of children.
Fang Yuan was slightly stunned, and could not help but size up this pair of siblings.
According to his previous life's memories, these two children would become the twin stars of the righteous path, and for a period of time, they would be unparalleled. Eventually, both of them would reach rank five, and push Bai clan's power to an unprecedented height in history.
At the same time, they were the inheritors of Bai Gu mountain's inheritance. Among them, Bai Sheng was the future clan leader of Bai clan.
In a clan, the position of clan leader was usually inherited by the clan leader's own children. But like Guyue village, where the clan leader did not have any children, they would select the best among the pure-blooded clansmen.
Humans had to go through a process of growth. This pair of twins, Bai Sheng and Bai Hua, could become heroes in the future. But these two were still too young, and could not even be considered students.
Fang Yuan retracted his gaze, and turned his attention back to Bai Lian.
The banquet continued.
During this time, Fang Yuan kept sneaking glances at Bai Lian. Bai Zhan Lie was finding fault, and his tone was getting more and more impolite. Bai Mo Xing's nephew, Bai Mo Ting, was sneaking glances at Bai Ning Bing.
