Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 2081 - 2063: It’s Good to Be Back

While flying, he and Li Xing exchanged mutual information. When Li Xing heard Fang Yan say that all the Spiritual Medicine had been consumed, he nearly fainted. The speed of alchemy was simply too exaggerated. Even if all the Alchemists in the entire Eternal Joy Immortal Realm were gathered, they would only reach a tenth of Fang Yan’s speed. This is not an Alchemist, and at this speed, simply making pills would be comparable. This is something that people cannot achieve.

That’s right, Li Xing now regarded Fang Yan as a monster. As for the junior brother he had never met, he considered that junior brother a super monster. How else could they be so abnormal to this extent!

But what Fang Yan was concerned about was another aspect of the Holy Soul Sect. His intuition told him that the Holy Soul Sect was definitely going to open the Space Passage to Earth. Under such a premise, the Holy Soul Sect could not give up on the conquest of other Cultivation worlds. And most importantly, the Black Spirit Stone was nearly depleted in the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm. To obtain Black Spirit Stones, they could only achieve it through conquest of other Cultivation worlds. It’s a dead end, unsolvable!

After roughly confirming these things, Fang Yan put away the Communication Spirit Stone and continued towards the direction of the Divine Sword Sect. However, Fang Yan did not expect that before reaching the Divine Sword Sect, an unexpected acquaintance appeared in front of him—the Great Elder of the Holy Soul Sect, Xiao Hai.

"Great Elder, are you waiting for me?" Fang Yan looked at Xiao Hai in front of him and asked strangely. He was truly puzzled, as the conquest had already ended. Why was the Great Elder of the Holy Soul Sect looking for him?

"I’m no longer the Great Elder of the Holy Soul Sect; just calling me Xiao Hai is fine," Xiao Hai looked at Lin Feng and said bitterly. He could no longer use the title of Great Elder, so he didn’t want Lin Feng to call him that either.

"This..." Fang Yan looked at Xiao Hai’s condition and instantly understood some things. However, calling him by his name felt inappropriate, so after considering a bit, he continued, "Elder Xiao Hai, is there something you need from me?"

Fang Yan truly wanted to figure out the real purpose of Xiao Hai’s appearance here. From any angle, there seemed to be no reason for Xiao Hai to come find him alone...

"Fang Yan, how do you think the Holy Soul Sect compares to the Divine Sword Sect?" Xiao Hai did not directly answer Fang Yan’s question at this moment but instead shifted the topic elsewhere.

"Of course, the Holy Soul Sect is far stronger than the Divine Sword Sect, undoubtedly. Otherwise, the continent wouldn’t be called the Holy Soul Continent. Elder Xiao Hai, what exactly do you mean? Just say it plainly." Fang Yan answered simply, and then he asked Xiao Hai to clarify his intentions. He truly did not want to waste time.

Hearing Fang Yan’s words, Xiao Hai nodded and then smiled at Fang Yan and said, "Fang Yan, to be frank, I came to find you alone to see if you would join the Holy Soul Sect. I assure you that if you join the Holy Soul Sect, you will also be listed as the Sect Heir, and no one in the Holy Soul Sect will dare to resist you." 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Upon hearing this, Fang Yan was momentarily stunned. He did not expect that the reason Xiao Hai was here was to persuade him to join the Holy Soul Sect. He had considered such a thing before but did not expect the Holy Soul Sect to come so early to persuade him.

"Elder Xiao Hai, to be honest, the Holy Soul Sect is very appealing, and I could indeed develop better there. But I will not go. The Divine Sword Sect has been very good to me, with a kindness for recognizing my talents, so I will never leave the Divine Sword Sect, no matter what, and this may disappoint Elder Xiao Hai."

Fang Yan responded quickly, as if he had not given it any thought. He had long considered his wording. Moreover, for him, if his guess was correct, this solicitation by the Holy Soul Sect was not a genuine enlistment but a test. If he agreed rashly, it might bring about a deadly calamity.

So, Fang Yan’s response was a denial. Although he wanted to go to the Holy Soul Sect to uncover some information Lin Feng wanted to know, it was too risky. Therefore, not going was the best choice. Even if the Holy Soul Sect solicits him multiple times later, it won’t be too late to decide then.

"Alright then, since your mind is set, I won’t force you either. The Divine Sword Sect is really great, having a loyal genius disciple like you. Your refusal to join the Holy Soul Sect is a loss to us," Xiao Hai said with a sigh after realizing Fang Yan’s firm refusal. He felt helpless as Fang Yan was the most talented cultivator he had ever seen or heard of. Fang Yan’s refusal to join the Holy Soul Sect was truly a pity, but no one could force him, only regret.

After saying this, Xiao Hai added, "Fang Yan, let’s part ways here. If you ever need my help in the future, you can come to me. Although I’m no longer the Great Elder of the Holy Soul Sect, there are some things I can still assist with. I hope you grow quickly and become the most outstanding talent in the Holy Soul Continent and even the entire Eternal Joy Immortal Realm."

"I thank Elder Xiao Hai once again, but I don’t think there’s anything I could need Elder Xiao Hai’s help with. But I appreciate Elder Xiao Hai’s intention," Fang Yan bowed to Xiao Hai and said seriously. He realized that Xiao Hai genuinely cared for the Holy Soul Sect and was a good person, but eventually, he would have to break the current situation and reveal Lin Feng’s doppelganger’s true identity, so it was better not to knit this bond.

"Sigh..." Seeing this, Xiao Hai couldn’t say more and turned to leave. He finally saw it clearly that Fang Yan would never join the Holy Soul Sect, and maybe coming here to persuade Fang Yan was a mistake from the beginning.

After Xiao Hai left, Fang Yan stood in place, with a solemn expression. He began analyzing who could have sent Xiao Hai. Although Xiao Hai no longer held the title of Great Elder, there were no injuries on him, and his aura seemed stronger than before. This implied Xiao Hai might have benefited from misfortune, but it was concealed and not obvious on the surface.

With Xiao Hai’s status, there were only two people who could command him: the Sect Master Xiao Tianrong or the ancestor Xiao Ke. Apart from these two, there should be no one else capable of commanding Xiao Hai.

If it were Xiao Tianrong, then the solicitation might be genuinely intended for enlistment. But if it were Xiao Ke, then the matter was different; Xiao Ke could have suspected something and sent Xiao Hai again, possibly causing even Xiao Hai to underestimate the impact of this happening.

Thinking of this, Fang Yan felt he should be more cautious in the future, at least to be mindful of some things to avoid regrets later...

After finishing these thoughts, Fang Yan sped up towards the Divine Sword Sect.

As soon as Fang Yan appeared in the Divine Sword Sect, he instantly attracted the attention of many Sect Disciples, who surrounded him.

"Fang Yan is back!"

"Fang Yan, spare some time to guide us!"

"Senior Brother Fang Yan, please guide us!"

...

The crowd surrounded Fang Yan tightly. Faced with such cheers from the Sect Disciples, Fang Yan was helpless. With no choice, he was compelled by the Sect Disciples to a clearing, where he explained some Cultivation matters to them.

He spent the entire afternoon addressing various Cultivation-related issues before he could free himself. But just as he returned to the Heavenly Court side, he was again surrounded by the Disciples of Heaven Institute. Although the number of Heaven Institute Disciples wasn’t large, there were still forty of them. He finally managed to explain to everyone that he wouldn’t leave temporarily before they let him go.

Fang Yan understood why everyone treated him this way; it was because they genuinely admired and revered him, which made them behave like this. Therefore, Fang Yan handled it gracefully, knowing the disciples saw him as an idol, and he couldn’t let them down.

After dealing with these matters, he finally managed to break free. However, instead of returning to his cave, he went to Shi Kuohai’s hut.

At that moment, Shi Kuohai was cultivating inside the hut. Upon seeing Fang Yan return, he was extremely pleased.

"You’re finally back," Shi Kuohai said happily upon seeing Fang Yan. The last time the Sect members returned, Fang Yan didn’t stay in the Sect, saying he had matters to attend to and leaving directly. Shi Kuohai only just saw him now.

"Elder Shi, I went to Heaven Demon Forest to attend to some matters and came back late," Fang Yan replied with a smile, seeing Shi Kuohai’s cheerful expression.

"It’s good you’re back, just good you’re back!" Shi Kuohai looked at Fang Yan, sized him up slightly, and exclaimed, "You’re now at the late Human Immortal Realm?"

For this point, Shi Kuohai felt speechless. Fang Yan’s Cultivation speed was truly beyond belief. Since the Holy Soul Sect’s external conquests began, how many days had it been for Fang Yan to break through to the late Human Immortal Realm? Such Cultivation speed was simply unimaginable!

It’s well-known that normally, Cultivating from the early Human Immortal Realm to the late Human Immortal Realm takes at least a dozen or twenty years. Even he, known as the Sect’s greatest talent in a century, took five years to complete this stage. But Fang Yan managed to get through this stage in less than a year; it’s truly monstrous!

Unbeknownst to him, Fang Yan actually didn’t want to break through; he had been suppressing his progression all along because Lin Feng had once told him that the realm wasn’t that important, true strength was. Fang Yan’s Gang Qi compression level had already exceeded anyone’s imagination; merely considering the quantity of Gang Qi, he had probably surpassed many Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouses long ago.
