Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Fang Lin's Backing

Translator: 549690339

This purple blotch was extremely glaring. Kang Lu's face turned deathly pale, his lips were trembling, and his eyes were filled with fear and despair.

Everyone else shivered, thinking to themselves just how ruthless Fang Lin could be, he said he would poison him, and he didn't hesitate at all.

“Fang Lin, you're finished! You're finished! You've poisoned me, this is harming a fellow disciple, the elders of the Pill Sect will never forgive you!” Kang Lu broke into a mad roar, seemingly thrown into madness.

Hearing this, Fang Lin remained expressionless, while Xu Shangao, Wu Mengsheng, and others looked worried.

Kang Lu was right. While Fang Lin's action of administering poison was ruthless, it still broke a taboo. As soon as they left Medicine-Seeking Peak,

Kang Lu would surely stir up trouble, and Fang Lin would be held accountable.

Even if the effects of the Lost Heart Pill took hold and Kang Lu lost his mind, turning into a madman, there wouldn't be any good outcome for Fang Lin.

Kang Lu laughed maliciously, his gaze on Fang Lin extremely spiteful, as though he'd momentarily forgotten about being poisoned by the Lost Heart Pill.

Fang Lin let out a small scoff and said, “Do you think I'm that stupid? Look at your chest again. Is that purple blotch still there?”

Kang Lu instinctively looked down and was immediately stunned. The purple blotch, which was there just moments ago, was now eerily gone.

Everyone else was dumbfounded too. What was going on? Why did it disappear after appearing?

“What did you do exactly?” Kang Lu was almost driven mad. Is he playing with me? Did I end up getting poisoned or not?

Fang Lin scoffed and said, “The Lost Heart Pill is of course still in your body, but that purple blotch will only be present for a short while before it disappears. No method can detect it, unless someone digs your heart out to discover the poison of the Lost Heart Pill. It doesn't show any symptoms, who would believe that you were poisoned by the Lost Heart Pill? Just by your word?”

Kang Lu immediately shouted, “There are others too, they all saw it, they can all testify for me!”

Fang Lin nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to the others present.

Except for the ones led by Fang Lin and Li Min, the rest of the Pill Sect disciples all stepped back, looking rather fearful. The more timid ones dared not even look at Fang Lin.

“Kang Lu said that you would testify for him? Let me ask you, would you?” Fang

Lin looked at the crowd and asked with a smile.

No one answered. At this moment, everyone was stunned by Fang Lin and didn't dare to make a sound.

Fang Lin glanced around, he knew very well that some of them will testify for Kang Lu as soon as they left Medicine-Seeking Peak. He had to come up with a strategy.

Fang Lin was not worried about Xu Shangao, Wu Mengsheng, and the others. As for the group that Li Min led, there was also no need for excessive concern a slight warning would suffice.

The people he needed to worry about most were the Pill Sect disciples led by Kang Lu. They were basically Kang Lu's people, and quite a few of them were Qiufan's men. They won't be intimidated by Fang Lin that easily.

Even if they didn't dare to speak up now, as soon as they left Medicine-Seeking Peak, they would surely step forward one after another to accuse Fang Lin of harming a fellow disciple.

Upon realizing this, Fang Lin flashed a hint of a smile at the corners of his mouth. He spoke to the Pill Sect disciples led by Kang Lu, “I present two paths before you. One, you become my enemies, and testify that I poisoned Kang Lu once we leave. However, there is no sign of poisoning on Kang Lu, even if you testify against me, at most I would be suspected, and won't face any substantial punishment. The other choice is to follow me, and I'll give each of you a Bone Tempering Pill. It's up to you to choose which path to take.”

Pausing for a moment, Fang Lin continued, “Let me tell you something more, I share a close relationship with Miss Han Yinyue. Even if Qiufan is one of the Four Elites of Pill Sect, he can't compare to me in terms of backing. Even if I

run into trouble, Miss Han would come to my aid. Following Qiufan is a dead end, while following me is equivalent to following Miss Han. Who carries more weight, you can figure that out for yourselves.”

These words left everyone dumbfounded for a while, taking them some time to fully digest.

Sitting on the ground, Kang Lu sneered, “Absurd claims. You actually claim to have a connection with Miss Han? How could a person of her caliber know a low-ranking disciple like you?”

Fang Lin smiled back at him, “You aren't influential enough to know about my relationship with Miss Han. When you go back and ask your backer Qiufan, I'm sure he will know.”

Kang Lu fell silent, feeling uncertain. Although rationality told him that Fang Lin was of much lower status compared to Miss Han and couldn't possibly be acquainted with her, Fang Lin's words seemed so convincing that Kang Lu himself started having doubts.

The others looked at Fang Lin in awe, thinking to themselves how influential Fang Lin was to have known Miss Han. With such connections, he could get away with so much in the Purple Mist Sect.

Qiufan and any elders would be of no match to Miss Han, even ten Qiufans could not equal half of Miss Han.

However, these were just Fang Lin's words, many still had doubts and didn't completely believe him.

Knowing that these people would not fully trust him, Fang Lin slapped his Nine Palace Bag and a piece of white jade appeared in his hand.

The white jade was not merely an exquisite decoration. It had some natural patterns, giving it a unique beauty.

A large character for 'moon' was carved on the jade.

Seeing this jade, Kang Lu turned pale and collapsed onto the ground.

The others were equally shocked, lowering their heads in deference.

This jade was unique to Han Yinyue, and everyone in the Purple Mist Sect recognized it.

Besides Han Yinyue, only the Martial Sect prodigy Qing Jianzi, who had a good relationship with her, possessed such a piece of jade. No one else had ever received a piece of white jade from Han Yinyue.

But now, Fang Lin was holding such a piece of jade, which only further proved his close relationship with Han Yinyue, didn't it?

No words were more useful than this one piece of white jade, and no one doubted Fang Lin's words anymore.

Kang Lu knew he was finished. Not only had he been poisoned by the Lost Heart Pill, but also Fang Lin now had connections with Miss Han. Even with Qiufan as his backer, he stood no chance against Fang Lin.

As for Xu Shangao, Wu Mengsheng, and the others, they were reassured. With the backing of Miss Han, they were now more confident in following Fang Lin.

Li Min gave Fang Lin an envious look. People truly differed from one another look at the connections Fang Lin had, even reaching Miss Han.

Li Min then looked at Kang Lu mockingly. Kang Lu had been acting high and mighty in the Pill Sect, backed by Qiufan, but now he had met his match in Fang Lin, a person even more ruthless than him..
