Fang Yuan heard ‘martial uncle’ and felt a little emotional. He raised his hand to indicate that there was no need for formalities, asking, “Which room is Zhang Wenbin staying in?”

“Martial Uncle Zhang is staying in room four in the backyard, but he hasn’t come out in the past two days. He should be in closed door cultivation, does Martial Uncle Fang want a disciple to pass on a message?”

“There’s no need.”

Fang Yuan knew that Zhang Wenbin had been hiding his whereabouts recently. Since he didn’t show his face in front of others, he didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, he said, “Is senior Zhao here?”

“Yes, Martial Uncle Zhao just came back. He’s in room two.”

“Okay, that’s all for now. Continue with your work.”

Fang Yuan nodded, threw him a primeval stone, and then walked toward the backyard.

Knock knock.

Fang Yuan gently knocked on the door.

“Senior, it’s me.”

Soon, the door opened and Zhao Hede stood in front of him with surprise.

“Little junior, why are you here?”

He warmly invited Fang Yuan in. “Come, come, have a seat. I’ll go and pour you a cup of tea.”

“Senior, there’s no need to trouble you.” Fang Yuan pulled him to sit down.

Zhao Hede laughed heartily. “Sigh, your trip to the Scarlet Flame Mystic Realm must’ve been tough. How was it, how was your harvest?”

“It was alright.”

Fang Yuan smiled. “There were some twists and turns, but I have obtained the Sunlight Gu.”

“Hahaha! This way, Wan Qian can be saved.”

Zhao Hede praised him. “You did well this time, you saved a good seedling for our sect. When the time comes, Master will definitely reward you handsomely.”

After exchanging pleasantries, Fang Yuan asked about his purpose for this trip.

“Oh right, Senior, what did you come out of the mountain to participate in this auction for?”

“Little junior, did you also go to the auction?”

Zhao Hede was a little surprised.

“I have some connections in Fanshu City, so I got an entry token.”

“I see…” Zhao Hede nodded, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

Fang Yuan simply said, “If it’s a sect secret and it’s inconvenient for Senior to say, I won’t ask.”

“Sigh, that’s not the case. Actually, if you were in the sect, you would be the one who came out today.”

Zhao Hede let out a light breath. “It’s just that this matter involves a lot of things, and I doesn’t know where to start.”

Fang Yuan was very interested and smiled. “I have been worrying about cultivating for the past two days without any results, and I’m very annoyed. I’d like to listen to your stories and broaden my horizons.”

“Heh, you think I am a storyteller.” Zhao Hede laughed. He poured a cup of tea for both of them and said slowly.

“A few days ago, Master was uneasy. He used the Fortune-telling Gu for divination, and the divination was strange and messy but did not point to anything, so he asked First Elder and Second Elder to help stabilize the divination, but in the end…”
