Outside the entrance to Demon Suppressing Cave.

Yu Zhen, with a face ashen as iron, stood here, fists clenched, his eyes full of anger.

The middle-aged man guarding the entrance of the Demon Suppressing Cave simply sat by, as if he did not see Yu Zhen, showing no surprise at his presence.

Behind Yu Zhen, the old man who had previously persuaded Fang Lin to fight for the Pill Sect was slowly advancing, his face carrying an inexplicable expression.

“Elder Yu, you’ve come this far, why not go in?” The old man glanced at Yu Zhen and indifferently spoke.

Yu Zhen glared fiercely at the old man before suppressing his anger and respectfully saying to the middle-aged man nearby, “Brother, please open the door.”

The middle-aged man waved his hand and the stone door opened upward.

Looking at the dark passage behind the stone door, Yu Zhen hesitated to step inside.

The elder shook his head with a slight smile, patting his shoulder, and walked in first.

Yu Zhen gritted his teeth and followed the elder into the Demon Suppressing

Cave.

After a while, the two men arrived at the stone chamber where Fang Lin was held. Their eyes immediately fell on Fang Lin inside the chamber.

However, both men fell into a strange silence when they saw what was inside, especially Yu Zhen, who almost spat blood in anger.

Inside the stone chamber, Fang Lin was lounging in a pile of straw like a rich young master, with Wang Dalong and others servicing him as if they were his subordinates.

“Eh? The elders are here, what a rare visit.” Fang Lin, on seeing the visitors, remained unfazed and cheerfully greeted them.

The elder managed a wry smile. He had previously thought that Fang Lin’s claim of being comfortable here was just bravado. Now it seems that Fang Lin was indeed comfortable in the cave, even having people to massage his shoulders and legs.

This was no prison, but rather a royal palace, his own personal royal palace.

Yu Zhen was filled with both rage and frustration. He’d thought that by imprisoning Fang Lin in the Demon Suppressing Cave, he would teach him a tough lesson.

Yet, it turned out that Fang Lin was living luxuriously inside, making all their previous efforts seem laughable.

While they were running frantically outside, Fang Lin was enjoying the good life here. This was practically driving them to death by anger.

“This is outrageous!” Yu Zhen snapped, startling Wang Dalong and the others, who immediately moved aside to avoid his anger.

Fang Lin lazily stretched his body and stood up, sauntering leisurely to the light curtain.

“Elder Yu, such grandeur. May I ask what brings you here? A visit or leisure?” Fang Lin made a joke, making Yu Zhen wish he could smash a fist into Fang Lin’s face.

Yu Zhen was about to snap back when he remembered the purpose of his visit and held back his words.

“Fang Lin, Brother Yu is here to request your help in the fight against the Ten-thousand Medicine Sect.” Seeing Yu Zhen’s suppressed rage, the elder hastily spoke.

Fang Lin responded with a drawn-out and surprised “Oh,” then said, “Elder Yu personally came to get me? I’m truly honored! If I’d known Elder Yu was coming, I should’ve had a proper welcome at the cave’s entrance. But alas, I can’t leave. I hope Elder Yu can forgive me for not having given you the welcome you deserve.”

Yu Zhen’s face turned as red as a beet upon hearing those words and the elder was on the brink of laughter. Nonetheless, he managed to keep his composure, secretly thinking that Fang Lin was being a difficult fellow.

Yu Zhen knew that Fang Lin was deliberately provoking him, but even knowing this, he was filled with anger.

He couldn’t help but feel angry. The satisfaction and content he felt when he had imprisoned Fang Lin turned into embarrassment now that he had to ask Fang Lin to come out and help. This back-and -forth caused Yu Zhen’s face to lose all dignity. How could he lift his head in front of Fang Lin in the future?

Yu Zhen didn’t want to come, but he had no choice. When Gu Daofeng and the other elders learned of Fang Lin’s request, apart from Yu Zhen and a few others who expressed their strong opposition, everyone else approved.

Even Gu Daofeng didn’t care about Yu Zhen’s face saving dilemma.

Thus, under the firm order from Gu Daofeng, Yu Zhen had to come personally to request Fang Lin’s assistance.

Finally, Yu Zhen took a deep breath and forced himself to say, “Fang Lin, for the upcoming battle against the Ten- thousand Medicine Sect, the Pill Sect cannot do without an outstanding disciple like you.”

Fang Lin impatiently started cleaning his ears when Yu Zhen was halfway through his speech.

Seeing this, Yu Zhen’s chest heaved, but he still repressed his anger and continued, “Since you asked me to come and request your help, I came. Now you can fight for the Pill Sect, right?”

Fang Lin looked at Yu Zhen, whose eyes were full of anger and unwillingness, an expression that was impossible to hide from anyone.

However, Fang Lin had achieved his objective, which was to make Yu Zhen swallow his pride in front of him.

So, Fang Lin yawned and replied indifferently, “Since Elder Yu is sincerely asking me to fight, if I refuse, won’t I be disrespecting him? Alright, I’ll take up this difficult task to save Elder Yu’s face and prevent him from feeling awkward in front of the head elder.”

Yu Zhen’s face twisted with a smile even uglier than crying, full of hatred for Fang Lin.

Seeing Fang Lin finally agree, the elder finally heaved a sigh of relief, waved his hand, and the light curtain disappeared.

Fang Lin exited the stone chamber, grinning at Yu Zhen whose face was sour, and then turned his attention to Wang Dalong, Shen Dong, and others inside the chamber.

They realized that Fang Lin was about to leave the Demon Suppressing Cave

and that the Elder had personally come to get him. Clearly, something significant was happening.

“I have to leave now. I’ll come to see you guys another day. Wang Dalong, although I’m leaving, don’t you dare bully Shen Dong and the others. If I hear about you bullying them, I won’t spare you.” Fang Lin said happily.

Wang Dalong shivered. He was most afraid of seeing Fang Lin’s smile. Every time he saw it, he felt a chill down his spine.

He quickly replied, “Brother Fang, rest assured, I, Wang Dalong, have rectified my errors and definitely won’t bully anyone.”

Fang Lin nodded and proceeded to leave with Yu Zhen and the elder.

“Brother Fang, do come and visit often.” From the stone chamber, Wang Dalong and the others yelled in unison.

Fang Lin almost tripped and fell, he turned back to glare at Wang Dalong and the others.

“Get lost!” Fang Lin snapped, causing Wang Dalong and the others to shrink back.

The elder smiled while Yu Zhen huffed. Fang Lin followed the two men, exiting the Demon Suppressing Cave.

The long-lost sunlight shone on Fang Lin; everything outside seemed beautiful. Fang Lin felt a wave of comfort wash over him.

He looked back at the gloomy cave and thought to himself, “I never want to come back to this godforsaken place again..”
