Chapter 104: The rise of the Night Bandit.
Translator: LamEditor: Hitesh
The scene in front of the peak’s gate did not bother Lin Fan at all. Man, it was not even any of his business. Now that the fiasco was over, it was time to scoot.
But for the disciples camping in front of the gate, each of their expressions were worse than the other. Some of them were saddened beyond words while some sighed continuously, expressing their helplessness.
Back at his own sect, Lin Fan came back to Zhang Ergou and Feng Bujue, who were getting along pretty nicely.
Based on cultivation bases, Feng Bujue’s was way superior compared to Zhang Ergou, just like heaven and earth. But Feng Bujue was actually referring to Zhang Ergou as the senior brother?!?
This fact astonished Lin Fan, and he wondered what tactic Zhang Ergou had employed for this outcome.
Arrival of night…
Zhang Ergou and Feng Bujue had long returned to rest in their wooden shed. Lin Fan stared at the night sky with a deep gaze which revealed his hollowness, and let out a slight sigh.
”Things like stealing are indeed deplorable and not befitting a man such as Yours Truly. But for the sake of regaining my fellow junior disciples’ manhood, I guess it’s understandable” Lin Fan consoled himself in his heart before leaping out into the darkness without a trace.
Danding Peak, Medicinal Herb Garden’s Disciple Resting Shed…
What Lin Fan did not know was that ever since the appearance of the giant ark, Glory Sect had been in a state of tension.
The forbidden ground expedition this time round had cost Glory Sect a great loss.
”Senior brother! I heard that in this recent expedition, we lost eight of our most talented inner sect disciples! Senior Brother Zong was totally unable to fight back, and to make things worse, Senior Brother Tianyu had his cultivation foundation utterly destroyed by the enemy sect’s disciple. He is currently in a state of limbo, from which he may just become a vegetable!”
”Senior Elder Jin came to the medicinal field and picked a few herbs, seemingly to use for cultivation of pills to stabilize Senior Brother Tianyu’s conditions. I wonder if it’ll work”
”Sigh, this is probably Glory Sect’s first loss in a hundred years. I wonder which disciple’s sect it was who could suppress Senior Brother Zong”
”Go to sleep, this level of affairs is beyond our status. We just have to guard the medicinal field properly”
”Yes.”
The lights in the house gradually dimmed into darkness, blending with the surrounding night.
And at this point, Lin Fan’s presence slowly crept into the medicinal field. In that vast field, blended within the darkness, he did seem kind of strange.
If it was a man lacking in courage, he might be scared out of his wits.
At this point, Lin Fan could only rely on the effects of the herbs to differentiate them.
‘'Ding…congratulations on discovering Zhu Lanxiang herb.”
”Zhu Lan Xiang: Soothing effect, useful in boosting blood circulation.”
Lin Fan gently touched a herb, and the description promptly popped up inside his mind. But, this herb didn’t seem useful to Lin Fan. Hence he tossed it away and touched another herb.
”Ding…congratulations on discovering Stone Flower herb.”
”Stone Flower: Strong effect, useful in training of the body.”
...
Herb after herb, touch after touch, Lin Fan could only shake his head in regret.
Unsuitable. Thoroughly unsuitable.
There wasn’t even anything that was close. Could it be that in this huge medicinal field, there wasn’t even a single herb that could relate?
But, looking at a large amount of ground he had not covered, Lin Fan eased a little and continued searching.
Tonight’s moonlight was mild and intermittent, occasionally hiding behind the clouds of the night sky. And in this vast medicinal field, a figure was sneakily committing a heist. It was just that he couldn’t be seen in the eyes of others.
”Ding…congratulations on discovering Intense Yang Grass.”
”Intense Yang Grass: Strong effect, useful in boosting Qi and vitality.”
At this moment, Lin Fan stopped. This Intense Yang Grass contained just three blades of leaves, a bright red rhizome but was otherwise bald.
”This might just do it.”
Lin Fan garnered that this vitality boosting herb might be pretty beneficial in boosting that aspect of a man.
Following this, Lin Fan continued his search for herbs. Obtaining the first reliable herb was a shot of confidence to him. This medicinal field definitely had the herbs he was looking for.
