Fang Lin had originally thought that the method he had proposed was so dangerous and uncertain that Han Yinyue would reconsider a few times before deciding. He didn’t expect her to just jump right in.

But Han Yinyue decided to take the risk and try it without a second thought, as if she didn’t care about the possible consequences at all.

Fang Lin opened and closed his mouth, swallowing the words he had prepared. If Han Yinyue could be so decisive, he couldn’t afford to doubt himself. He certainly didn’t want to make a laughingstock of himself.

So, Fang Lin said, “Truly, Han, you are extraordinary. However, the Meridian

Cleansing Pill is an extremely obscure pill, and I’m not sure if anyone in the Pill Sect can refine it.”

Han Yinyue looked at Fang Lin and smiled, “If others can’t, doesn’t mean you can’t, right?”

Fang Lin returned her smile, “You flatter me. Though I know how to create the pill formula, I currently lack the capability to refine it.”

Han Yinyue’s brows furrowed slightly, but she did not believe Fang Lin, thinking he was merely being humble.

In reality, Fang Lin was not being overly modest at all. He genuinely couldn’t produce the Meridian Cleansing Pill at his current level.

The Meridian Cleansing Pill belongs to the third rank of pills, and to refine such a level of pill, at the very least, one must possess the skills of a Three Cauldrons Pill Refiner.

Although Fang Lin is well-versed in Alchemy techniques, his martial art realm is low and he lacks inner strength. At best, he can only refine first-grade pills. To refine a first-grade pill and above, Fang Lin must at least become an Earth Element Martial Artist.

“If no one from Pill Sect can refine the Meridian Cleansing Pill, then I will come to you, Fang. I hope then, you will stop being humble,” Han Yinyue whispered.

Fang Lin gave a bitter smile– even if she came to him in the future, he still wouldn’t be able to refine a Meridian Cleansing Pill.

When Han Yinyue got up to leave, there was a hint of hesitation in her eyes, and she said, “If you find the root cause, can you heal me?” fr(e)enovelkiss

Fang Lin looked into Han Yinyue’s eyes, didn’t say a word, but just nodded seriously.

Han Yinyue smiled, an exceptionally beautiful smile, like a blooming peony.

Fang Lin showed Han Yinyue out of the yard. Han Yinyue glanced at Fang Lin and warned him, “Wang Zhen, I fear he will come after you again.”

Fang Lin was taken aback. He had been so involved in discussing plans with Han Yinyue that he had forgotten to ask who Wang Zhen was.

Han Yinyue didn’t explain further and left.

After securing the door of the yard, Fang Lin went straight to Xu Shangao.

Since he still didn’t know who Wang Zhen was, it was best to ask Xu Shangao.

Xu Shangao informed Fang Lin that Wang Zhen was indeed a top disciple of the Martial Sect, but had a very bad reputation. Even within the Martial Sect, there were many who despised Wang Zhen.

Wang Zhen was known for his malicious schemes and mean actions. He loved to manipulate others. He once sabotaged a fellow top disciple’s cultivation breakthrough by causing a ruckus outside his door, almost causing the loss of that disciple’s life.

This incident caused a major uproar in the Martial Sect, and Wang Zhen nearly lost his status as a top-level disciple. However, eventually, nothing came out of it. It seemed that Wang Zhen had some strong backing.

Repeatedly, Wang Zhen had threatened and seduced disciples of the Pill Sect. Once one refused his demands, he would resort to all kinds of devious methods until they finally gave in.

However, Wang Zhen bit off only what he could chew, stirring trouble only with those he could easily control.

For instance, he had not once bothered the Four Elites of Pill Sect, despite the allure of their power.

Simply put, Wang Zhen knew better than to provoke the Four Elites. No matter the backing behind him, he wouldn’t gain anything from incurring their wrath.

In short, Wang Zhen was a man who bullied the weak and feared the strong. He had absolutely no shame and wouldn’t hesitate to go to any lengths.

Xu Shangao looked at Fang Lin with a hint of sympathy. “It seems that Wang Zhen has set his sights on you. That guy is not someone easily handled. Seems like you’re in for a hard time.”

Fang Lin smiled slightly, “Does he think Fang Lin is easy to bully?”

Xu Shangao gave a wry smile, “You indeed are not easily bullied, but Wang Zhen, even though he is despicable, his actions remain within the rules. No one can really do anything to him. What can you do?”

Fang Lin’s smile widened, carrying an air of confidence; it seemed like he hadn’t taken Wang Zhen seriously at all.

“In ten days, Wang Zhen will no longer pose a problem,” said Fang Lin.

Xu Shangao was skeptical, but having witnessed many surprising feats from Fang Lin, he believed that Fang Lin may really have a plan to deal with Wang Zhen.

Five days later, Wang Zhen returned.

Wang Zhen had actually planned to return the next day, but he got nervous thinking about Fang Lin’s close relationship with Han Yinyue, and did not make a hasty decision.

He took five days to have his backers investigate and ensure there was nothing substantial between Miss Han and Fang Lin.

Assured, Wang Zhen returned again, and this time with an even bolder attitude. He proclaimed that if Fang Lin did not hand over all the remaining Bone Tempering Pills to him, he would expose Fang Lin’s private sale of pills to the Pill Pavilion, tarnishing Fang Lin’s reputation and forcing him out of the Pill Sect.

This time, Fang Lin did not argue with Wang Zhen, but bowed and agreed.

Then, Fang Lin took out eight Bone Tempering Pills and handed them to Wang Zhen.

Wang Zhen sneered twice in satisfaction, took the pills and left.

After another five days, many disciples from the Martial Sect came again to participate in the second auction to compete for the remaining Bone Tempering Pills.

More people came this time than the last, including three top disciples from the Martial Sect.

These three disciples, all of whom were well-known figures with formidable power in the Martial Sect, caused the others to curse as they made their appearance.

A crowd filled Fang Lin’s yard to the brim; they were nearly climbing up the trees.

The three top disciples of the Martial Sect took the front positions, their faces brimming with confidence, as if they intended to win everything in the auction.

Fang Lin arrived with a gloomy face. Upon seeing his expression, the crowd was taken aback. Fang Lin had been cheerful just days ago, why did he look so downcast today?

Fang Lin walked to the front, sighed deeply, hesitated, and looked distressed, but did not immediately speak.

“What are you playing at, Fang Lin?” One of the Martial Sect disciples said impatiently.

Fang Lin sighed again, apologized to the crowd and said, “I am deeply sorry for the disappointment, but the Bone Tempering Pills are all gone.” “What? The Bone Tempering Pills are gone?”

“Are you kidding? I’m here for the Bone Tempering Pills!”

“What the hell? Are you playing us?”

All the Martial Sect disciples were instantly angered. Even among the three top disciples, there was a hint of coldness sweeping across their faces..
