Chapter 72: Chapter 72: Obtaining the White Bird Fruit

Translator: 549690339

This white jade disk with the symbol for 'moon' was exactly what Han Yinyue had given to Fang Lin just before the opening of Medicine-Seeking Peak.

Originally, Fang Lin hadn't thought much of it. However, now, he suspected that Miss Han must have foreseen something, and that's why she gave him this white jade disk.

Looking at the white jade disk in his hand, Fang Lin inwardly marveled, Miss Han was indeed extraordinary. This piece of white jade was incredibly valuable, and by accepting it, he was completely under Miss Han's control. Though it brought numerous benefits, he would have no choice but to oblige should she have any future requests.

But considering the current situation, having this white jade disk was more advantageous than disadvantageous. At the very least, it would be enough to deter some insolent people.

Kang Lu was slumped on the ground, his mind buzzing. He couldn't even bear to look at the white jade disk, his whole body shaking uncontrollably.

“It's over! I'm finished! This Fang Lin actually has Miss Han as his backer. I can't compete with him! Even with Senior Brother Yu on my side, I am no match for Fang Lin!” Kang Lu's heart was filled with despair, and he seemed completely drained of spirit.

Fang Lin glanced at him without uttering a word. He simply took Kang Lu's Nine Palace Bag, took out the White Bird Fruit from it and put it into his own bag. After that, he returned the Nine Palace Bag to Kang Lu.

Fang Lin then put away the white jade disk. This thing was too ostentatious. Waving it around once was enough. As long as it had its intimidating effect, that was fine.

“Now, does anyone else here intend to make accusations against me?” Fang Lin looked at everyone with a smile, speaking lightly.

Immediately, one disciple stood out and declared, “Kang Lu has brought this misfortune upon himself!”

“That's right. Kang Lu has always been malicious. Him meeting this end is truly satisfying! ”

“Good job, Elder Brother Fang!”

“We will never speak ill of Elder Brother Fang!”

“Whoever dares to defame Elder Brother Fang, we won't let him go!”

The inferior disciples led by Kang Lu completely changed their attitudes, wishing they could immediately disassociate themselves from him.

None of these people were fools. The current situation was crystal clear. Kang

Lu had lost completely, and even if he had Qiufan's support afterwards, he

could do nothing to Fang Lin.

More importantly, Fang Lin had Miss Han as his backer. That was a huge support – in the Purple Mist Sect, who else had such a powerful backer?

If they didn't urgently cozy up to Fang Lin now, someone else might seize the opportunity.

Listening to these people, Kang Lu didn't react, and even showed a bitter smile.

The table had indeed turned. The former Kang Lu was a prominent figure in the Pill Sect, with countless people flattering and following him.

But now, Kang Lu was like a street rat that everyone wanted to beat. Even those who had previously flattered him changed their attitudes completely, wishing they could help Fang Lin kill Kang Lu on the spot.

This was the reality of the world. In all aspects, Fang Lin was better than Kang Lu. Of course, these people would no longer follow Kang Lu, instead, they would curry favor with Fang Lin.

Fang Lin looked at these people's fawning faces. While his expression showed satisfaction, his mind was filled with disdain.

Suddenly, Kang Lu pulled out a jade brand. Without any hesitation, he immediately crushed it.

A halo of white light enveloped Kang Lu. In the next moment, under everyone's gazes of various emotions, Kang Lu's figure disappeared on the spot.

“Not good, Kang Lu has actually crushed the jade brand and chosen to leave

Medicine-Seeking Peak at this time!” Xu Shangao's face changed as he spoke.

Fang Lin, on the other hand, appeared unconcerned. Him leaving wasn't a big deal; if he could stay in Medicine-Seeking Peak, that would be truly impressive.

Xu Shangao approached Fang Lin, whispering, “Fang Lin, after Kang Lu leaves, he will certainly make a fuss. Even though you have the white jade disk gifted by Miss Han, I'm afraid there may still be trouble ahead. Be careful.”

Fang Lin nodded, replying, “I'll certainly be cautious. Kang Lu is no threat to me.”

Xu Shangao nodded in agreement, not overly worried for Fang Lin. Since Fang Lin knew Miss Han, this connection, no matter how deep or shallow, was a bargaining chip in his hand. Whoever wanted to deal with Fang Lin must weigh this chip.

At this moment, Li Min approached. His face clearly showed respect as he made a fist salute towards Fang Lin.

“I greet Elder Brother Fang,” said Li Min, using a very polite tone and humble attitude. Despite being a senior in seniority, he addressed Fang Lin as “Elder Brother”, clearly intending to please him.

Fang Lin felt neither good nor bad about this Li Min. At least, he had no grudges with him. So, he returned the salute.

Li Min hesitated, his face filled with uncertainty as if he had something to say but couldn't speak.

Seeing this, Fang Lin understood his intention. Apparently, he wanted to claim back the White Bird Fruit, which originally belonged to him.

In response, Fang Lin gave a faint smile, saying, “Elder Brother Li, do you need anything? If not, we are planning to go further up.”

Hearing this, Li Min hurriedly replied, “I was wondering if Elder Brother Fang could return the White Bird Fruit to me. I'm willing to exchange it with something else.”

The White Bird Fruit was an extremely rare medicinal ingredient that could be used to concoct many kinds of pills. Even if taken directly, it had a great nourishing effect.

Moreover, the White Bird Fruit was difficult to grow. It would only appear under certain conditions: if the soil was extremely fertile and there were flocks of white birds living nearby.

Throughout Medicine -Seeking Peak, it would be quite challenging to find a second White Bird Fruit. This was why Li Min had come to Fang Lin to claim it, despite the embarrassment.

However, before Fang Lin could respond, Xu Shangao frowned and retorted, “Li Min, this White Bird Fruit was given to Kang Lu by you. Now that Fang Lin obtained it from Kang Lu, it no longer has anything to do with you. You still wish to claim it? Where's the logic in that?”

Wu Mengsheng also looked at Li Min discontentedly, saying, “The White Bird Fruit is now Fang Lin's property. If you continue to harass him, you'll end up like Kang Lu.”

Hearing these words, Li Min could only sigh, his heart filled with sorrow.

But he didn't harbor any resentment towards Fang Lin. After all, the White Bird Fruit had changed hands several times and was no longer related to him, Li Min. It was indeed somewhat inappropriate for him to claim it like this.

The main reason was that Li Min couldn't accept it, and that's why he came to claim it. If he couldn't get it back, then he would have to give up.

“I take my leave.” Li Min left dejectedly. Half of the people who had followed him stayed, and the other half did not continue to follow him.

As for the group of people who had followed Kang Lu, they didn't dare to leave casually without Fang Lin's permission.

Fang Lin had complete disdain for these people. He waved his hand, and they fled, as if they'd received a great amnesty.

“Fang Lin, are you, really acquainted with Miss Han?” Xu Shangao asked, with a cautious tone now that only a few of them were left.

Fang Lin smiled and said, “Not only am I acquainted with her, Miss Han has even been a guest in my house..”
