Chapter 1648: Chapter 1648: Can Fang Bai Really Do It?

The Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron rolled a few times with the shockwave before it remained firmly still.

Inside the cauldron, Fang Bai heard a “buzzing” sound, knowing it was the vibration sound produced by the shockwave striking the cauldron.

After more than ten breaths, when everything calmed down, Fang Bai leaped out from the cauldron and then stored the Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron into the Five Elements Space Ring.

He looked around and saw that Bao Zhenhai, who had self-detonated, had already turned into a mist of blood, dissipating between heaven and earth.

When his Divine Sense diffused, he saw Lu Xiongfei sitting cross-legged on the ground hundreds of feet away, bleeding from the nose and mouth, his clothes in disarray and looking distressed, having swallowed a Spirit Pill and now closed-eyed healing.

The Xue siblings were even worse off, both pushed thousands of feet by the shockwave’s force, covered in injuries, as if they were blood people. If not for their distance from Bao Zhenhai, they might have fallen.

In this battle, Fang Bai had also consumed quite a bit of spiritual energy. Thinking that a more intense battle might soon follow, he chose not to disturb Lu Xiongfei and the others, finding a secluded place to start cultivating in solitude.

A few hours later, Fang Bai’s spiritual energy was restored, returning to peak state.

At this time, Lu Xiongfei and the Xue siblings were still recuperating, and it was unknown when they would completely recover.

Fang Bai glanced at the sky, noting that there were only five or six hours left before the agreed internal-external collaboration time with Wuya Sect’s Elder Zhong Guiyi. If things get delayed further, they wouldn’t attack on time, and it would be troublesome if plans changed.

Fang Bai sighed, flying to Lu Xiongfei’s side, seeing Lu Xiongfei suddenly open his eyes, he said solemnly: “City Lord Lu, the water spirit energy in my body has quite a miraculous effect on healing wounds, could lend you a hand…”

He stopped speaking, quietly observing Lu Xiongfei, wondering if the other party would accept his help.

“If we delay further, Zhong Guiyi might not be able to wait. Brother Fang, if you have a way to help us recover quickly, it would be great!”

Lu Xiongfei said eagerly.

Originally, Lu Xiongfei was a bit wary of Fang Bai, but then he thought if Fang Bai wanted to harm the three of them, he could unleash a full-strength attack at this moment, why need other means?

With this thinking, Lu Xiongfei had no scruples.

Fang Bai nodded, walked behind Lu Xiongfei, and lightly tapped his body with his finger, infusing a strand of pure water spirit energy into his body.

Then Fang Bai repeated the process, infusing water spirit energy into the Xue siblings.

Fang Bai’s water spirit energy had a miraculous healing effect, originally the injuries of Lu Xiongfei and the Xue siblings would require several hours to heal, and the spiritual energy would take as long to recover, thanks to Fang Bai’s assistance, it only took half an hour to return to the original state.

“Brother Fang, thank you.”

“Thank you.”

Lu Xiongfei and the Xue siblings exited the healing state, stepping forward to thank Fang Bai, marveling at the miraculous wood spirit energy he possessed, and raised their opinion of Fang Bai as a person.

Fang Bai waved his hand, saying: “Let’s head quickly to Wuya Sect! If we delay further, Zhong Guiyi may become impatient waiting!”

“Let’s go!”

The four did not hesitate any longer, each driving their spiritual artifact, flying skyward towards the direction of Wuya Sect.

They were a mere thousand miles away from Wuya Sect and quickly flew over a large valley nearby.

This valley was three hundred miles from Wuya Sect, outside the range of the Wuya Sect’s high-level Divine Sense, making it secretive and safe.

After Lu Xiongfei landed, he emitted a low beast-like howl, and in an instant, countless martial artists from all directions in the mountains quickly gathered into the valley.

Seeing Lu Xiongfei return unharmed, these martial artists all had expressions of nervous excitement, and someone couldn’t help but ask: “City Lord, when do we take action? The brothers are all getting impatient!”

The speaker was some of Lu Xiongfei’s subordinates from the City Lord Mansion.

“Indeed, City Lord Lu, we have been eagerly waiting for the chance to divide Wuya Sect’s cultivation resources!”

This time, it was a representative from the martial artists of Wushuang City speaking.

Within Wushuang City gathered millions of martial artists, many of whom were in the Soul Severing Realm and above, with Nascent Soul Realm experts countless. Many Nascent Soul and Soul Severing experts had been deceived and oppressed by Wuya Sect before, harboring deep-seated hatred towards it.

Lu Xiongfei, in this instance, secretly liaised with those Nascent Soul and Soul Severing experts. Once Wuya Sect was eliminated, they schemed to divide Wuya Sect’s cultivation resources according to their contribution.

Though there were over ten thousand experts participating in the take-down of Wuya Sect, the stored cultivation resources Wuya Sect accumulated over the years were not trivial? Coupled with vast medicinal fields available for harvesting, everyone could have a share.

“Everyone, don’t be anxious! Follow the plan! When the beast tide arises, let the spirit beasts cause a ruckus first, then we will attack them when they’re weary, and proceed to invade Wuya Sect!”

After saying this, Lu Xiongfei cast a glance at Fang Bai, and the gaze of the other martial artists also fell on Fang Bai.

They all knew that this move to eliminate Wuya Sect was a dangerous and insane action, and whether it would succeed or not, Fang Bai was the most important link in it.

Fang Bai flew up, glanced toward the distant primeval forest, and said: “I will go drive away the spirit beasts, you all prepare! When the battle commences, I hope everyone will fight valiantly, giving it their all to kill the enemy!”

Once he finished speaking, his figure transformed into a stream of light, flying toward the primeval forest.

“City Lord Lu, can that Fang Bai really accomplish it?”

Asked a Soul Severing High Rank expert from Wushuang City.

The expert wasn’t doubting Fang Bai, but Fang Bai was indeed too young, hard to believe.

Had it not been for Lu Xiongfei’s more than a hundred years of reputable assurance, he wouldn’t have come to participate; after all, life is precious, and without absolute certainty, he wouldn’t risk collaborating with Wushuang City.

Lu Xiongfei gazed in Fang Bai’s departure direction, sighing: “If he can’t accomplish it, then including myself, there’s no one here who can! Do you know, when we went to slay Taixuan Sect’s Supreme Elder Bao Zhenhai before, both myself and the two Deputy City Lords suffered severe injuries, yet he remained unscathed…”

He paused here, seeing the disbelieving expression of the Soul Severing High Rank expert, he smiled and added: “Listen to me, regarding Fang Bai, it’s best to show great respect, being friends with him is ideal, but never become his enemy, otherwise you will regret for life!”

“I see that Fang Bai’s cultivation level is only at the initial stage of Soul Severing, could he be a Martial Dao Genius with the ability to challenge across levels?”

Another strong expert from Wushuang City inquired.

Seeing that it was also a Soul Severing High Rank who asked, Lu Xiongfei said: “Correct! Fang Bai indeed possesses the capability to challenge a higher level! Let me tell you, if I were to engage in a one-on-one battle with Fang Bai, our odds of winning would be fifty-fifty!”

His words left the surrounding ten thousand martial artists in shock.

Being the City Lord of Wushuang City, possessing the first layer of the Heavenly Tribulation cultivation, having faced innumerable challenges, Lu Xiongfei’s strength was obvious to all, and for Fang Bai to stand comparable with him, just how formidable was he?
