“Senior brother? Ridiculous! Among these inferior disciples, who dares to claim to be my older brother in my presence, Kang Lu? Look in a mirror before you overestimate yourself!” Kang Lu sneered disdainfully.

Everyone around Li Min looked furious. Kang Lu's words disrespect not only Li Min, but also all the lesser disciples. How could they bear this?

Li Min clenched his fists, feeling disheartened.

Kang Lu was right. Among these lesser disciples, nobody could stand before him and claim seniority. Apart from his powerful abilities, he also had Yu Qiufan backing him up. Protected by Qiufan, who would dare to disrespect Kang Lu?

However, Li Min would not just give the White Bird Fruit to Kang Lu. This was a valuable medicinal herb that they had found after much effort. Even under Kang Lu's pressure, Li Min would not submit.

“Let's go. We must not harm our fellow disciples within Medicine-Seeking Peak. I'd like to see how Kang Lu can take the White Bird Fruit,” he said coldly, preparing to leave with his companions.

Kang Lu let out a derisive laugh and called out to the crowd. “Listen up. If you let Li Min give me the White Bird Fruit, I'll leave you alone. If not, you'll have a tough three days, and no matter where you hide, I won't let you off. You won't receive any other herbs either.”

On hearing this, Li Min glared at Kang Lu in great rage, while everybody else hesitated.

“Li Min, let's just give Kang Lu the White Bird Fruit,” a younger disciple said to Li Min cautiously.

Li Min glared at him, but the young man, unafraid, stood tall and replied, “Brother Li Min, it's just one White Bird Fruit. You can't let all of us get implicated just because of it.”

The young man's words received support from others who also urged Li Min to do the right thing, while several kept silent.

Li Min was furious. These people had agreed beforehand to cooperate within the Medicine-Seeking Peak. He had expected them to stand by him, but they were now siding with Kang Lu.

“Li Min, are you still in denial? Hand over the White Bird Fruit, or you'll be unable to take a step in the Medicine-Seeking Peak!” Kang Lu announced boldly, as if sealing Li Min's fate.

Li Min's expression turned bleak. In utter despair, he threw the White Bird Fruit onto the ground.

The young disciple, who had tried to persuade Li Min, picked up the fruit immediately and passed it respectfully to Kang Lu.

Kang Lu smiled slightly and pocketed the White Bird Fruit.

Seeing this, Li Min kept silent, silently seething but powerless.

“That's more like it. The White Bird Fruit is not something that someone like you can possess. It's much easier for all of us if you had handed it to me earlier,” Kang Lu said smugly, a ridiculing smile on his face.

Li Min was on the verge of rushing at Kang Lu, but the young disciples signaled him to remain calm and restrain himself for a while.

Watching Li Min, absorbed in his frustration and unable to vent, Kang Lu burst into triumphant laughter.

“Kang Lu, what's making you laugh like a chrysanthemum?” An indolent voice cut through the scene, halting Kang Lu's laughter.

Everyone saw that Fang Lin and company had casually strolled back from not far away, with Fang Lin at the helm.

Confused on seeing Fang Lin return, everybody, especially Kang Lu, was not pleased. He felt a chill whenever he saw Fang Lin.

Fang Lin wore a nonchalant expression, seemingly bored by everything around him.

“Fang Lin, didn't you leave already? What are you up to now?” Kang Lu asked angrily.

Fang Lin shrugged, “Does Medicine-Seeking Peak belong to you? Since when do I need your permission to be here?”

Kang Lu's face darkened. Fang Lin openly insulted him in front of everyone, which infuriated him.

“Hmph, stay here if you want, we're leaving!” Kang Lu beckoned his crew to leave quickly, wary of engaging further with Fang Lin and escalating the situation.

“Wait, have I permitted you to leave?” Fang Lin asked with a faint smile that baffled everyone.

Xu Shangao was secretly impressed. Fang Lin's statement was so domineering that it didn't place Kang Lu in any regard.

Wu Mengsheng and the others were worried. Fang Lin's arrogance could land more trouble upon them.

All those behind Kang Lu glared menacingly at Fang Lin, as though ready to attack him at any moment.

Li Min, however, was dumbfounded, utterly shocked by Fang Lin's dominating statement.

Kang Lu turned around abruptly, glaring coldly at Fang Lin.

“What do you want?” he asked.

Fang Lin looked at Kang Lu with a smile and said, “Nothing major, I just think the White Bird Fruit is quite good. How about you give it to me?”

Everyone was shocked. They never expected Fang Lin to join the contention for the White Bird Fruit, let alone snatch it from Kang Lu.

Kang Lu laughed in fury, pointing at Fang Lin, “The White Bird Fruit is mine. If you want it, you'll have to beg me on your knees!”

“Right, has Fang Lin gone mad, daring to ask us for something?”

“It's utterly nonsensical!”

“I really don't know where he gets his confidence.”

Kang Lu's followers joined in, scoffing at Fang Lin as if he was a laughingstock.

“Fang, it's better not to mess with Kang Lu. He's not someone who we can afford to offend.” Wu Mengsheng quietly advised Wang Lin, based on his years of experience among the official disciples.

“Fang Lin, do you realize what you're saying? No one has ever claimed anything from me, Kang Lu, so effortlessly,” Kang Lu said harshly.

Fang Lin didn't respond, maintaining an innocuous smile that implied he was a mild-mannered young man.

“Who do you think you are?” Fang Lin suddenly snapped and unleashed his formidable Inner Strength of the eighth level.

Whoosh!

The gale produced by this display of Inner Strength whistled past, leaving everyone wobbling, struggling to stay on their feet.

Kang Lu was the first to be blown away, landing with a tumble.

“The eighth level of Human Origin! How is that possible? How could he be at the eighth level of Human Origin!” Kang Lu shouted in terror before he even managed to get up.

The men who accompanied Kang Lu turned pale in fear. They looked at Fang Lin as if he was a dreadful creature, their faces filled with terror..
