My Gu Can Cultivate on Their Own

103  Small Reputation

Fang Yuan was puzzled.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from afar.

"Demoness! Don't hurt my fellow Gu Immortal Sect disciple!"

Bai Yao looked towards the voice.

A green-robed figure was charging down from the cliff with a Gu worm in their hand, giving off a shocking aura.

"You came here with someone?" Bai Yao asked with a faint smile.

"I din't know either."

Fang Yuan shook his head slightly, "It seems to be a senior in the sect, you should leave first."

"How will you explain it if we don't fight?"

Bai Yao's expression turned cold, and her Gu worm's ability fully activated as she went forward to fight with the person who came.

Only then did Fang Yuan realize that the other party was the examiner Martial Uncle.

After a few moves, Bai Yao was obviously at a disadvantage.

However, she did not intend to fight to the death with the examiner. After finding an opportunity to stagger away, she retracted her Gu worm into her acupoints and moved away.

"Shameless old man, bullying the young, I won't play with you anymore!"

"You want to leave?"

The examiner was about to chase after her when Fang Yuan hurriedly coughed twice, looking weak.

Only then did he give up and came over to check on Fang Yuan's condition.

"Martial Nephew Fang, How are you?"

"It's nothing serious, it's just a backlash from the death of my Gu worm..."

"This isn't a small matter, can you still move?"

Fang Yuan nodded lightly and asked, "Martial Uncle, why are you here?"

"The sect master sent an urgent order for me to come down the mountain to look for you. I couldn't find you in Fanshu City's inn, so I came over to take a look when I heard some movement, I didn't expect to meet you here."

The examiner frowned as he scanned the surroundings. "That demoness' methods are actually so three experts of the younger generation in the inner sect, Zhang Wenbin?"

10:52

Fang Yuan nodded with a serious expression.

cruel, killing so many innocent mortals."

As he spoke, he paused and asked, "Oh right, Martial Nephew Fang, Why did you come here and run into someone from the Gu Demon Sect?"

"It's a long story..."

Fang Yuan hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still said seriously, "Martial Uncle, the one who refined Gu worms with living people here is not that woman, but... our sect's Zhang Wenbin."

"What!"

The examiner was obviously shocked by this news, and he confirmed it again in disbelief, "The Zhang Wenbin you mentioned is the Fourth Elder's personal disciple, the one who is known as one of the three experts of the younger generation in the inner sect, Zhang Wenbin?"

Fang Yuan nodded with a serious expression.

This matter could not be hidden. It was better to just say it out loud, otherwise the sect would get involved in the investigation and he would be in trouble.

It just so happened that Zhang Wenbin violated the sect's rules and did something that everyone was angry about, and Fang Yuan was not really the one who killed him.

No matter if it was the Fourth Elder or the sect, they could not blame him.

Then, he told them about the incident where he accidentally heard about Zhang Wenbin conspiring with someone from the Gu Demon Sect on the flower boat.

Of course, he omitted a lot of details as well as his interactions with Bai Yao.

But with the current situation, it was easy to connect the cause and effect of the matter.

The examiner was silent for a while, then he helped Fang Yuan up with a frown.

It sounded like Zhang Wenbin was colluding with the Gu Demon Sect because of his position.

Fang Yuan was suspicious, and Zhang Wenbin was caught red-handed today. He took down Zhang Wenbin and was prepared to hand him over to the sect for punishment.

In the end, Zhang Wenbin retaliated on the verge of death and ended up self-destructing.

From a simple point of view, it made sense.

However...

The lack of details made it seem suspicious.

There were many things that could not be explained.

The assessment officer pondered for a long time before looking at Fang Yuan. "This matter involves a lot of things... If you are healthy, how about returning to Fanshu City with me?"

"Aren't things in a hurry over at Master's side..."

"The Zhang clan has quite a bit of power in the capital. We must investigate thoroughly and report back to the sect master to handle the follow-up matters. There's no harm in waiting for another two days."

Fang Yuan could hear that the examiner didn't completely trust his one-sided words and was prepared to go to Fanshu City to investigate.

This was a good thing.

Of course, he wouldn't refuse.

Zhang Wenbin's whereabouts were strange and couldn't be investigated.

Fang Yuan had basically been hanging out with Li Tongzhou these past few days, and he was also at the auction. Even Zhao Hede could be his witness, so he wasn't flustered at all.

There was also the examiner helping him with the follow-up matters, saving him the trouble of explaining himself.

He put away the jar containing the flesh and blood of the Bloodthirsty Gu and followed the examiner back to Fanshu City.

The examiner went to the inn alone to investigate, while Fang Yuan went to the Xu Manor.

On the way, he encountered an interesting matter.

There were many Gu masters standing at the notice board in the city, discussing his name.

"Hey, look, the Prodigy Roll's ranking has changed!"

"Aren't changes common, why are you making a fuss?"

"Look closely at the eighty-seventh place, this Fang Yuan is only at the fourth layer of the Enlightenment Realm!"

"Fourth layer of Enlightenment Realm? You're joking. This is the Prodigy Roll, only those who are at the peak below twenty-five years old and are at least at the sixth layer of the Enlightenment Realm can get on the Prodigy Roll. How can he casually challenge someone of a higher cultivation level?"

"If you don't believe me, look, Gu Immortal Sect, Fang Yuan, these five words are written clearly."

"My god, it is true, I have never heard of this person before, where did he suddenly come from?"

"In the entire Prodigy Roll, there are countless people who can challenge someone of a higher cultivation level. He should be a core disciple of the Gu Immortal Sect, right?"

"I have a distant cousin who cultivates in the Gu Immortal Sect. A few days ago when he went back to visit his relatives, he mentioned that their sect recently had a fierce person, he broke the record of many years of the outer sect competition and was promoted to the inner sect, and he even participated in the Dao seeking trial and was chosen by Gu Zhenren, I wonder if it was him."

"It's most likely him, otherwise, whose disciple would have such strength?"

"So he's a direct disciple of Gu Zhenren, no wonder..."

...

Fang Yuan retracted his attention and continued on his journey.

It seemed like he had gradually gained some fame in the secular world.

If that was the case, then Vice City Lord Xu's matter would be much easier to handle.

After arriving at their destination, the Xu Manor still maintained its strict defense.

It was estimated that they would have to live in this kind of tense atmosphere every day before resolving the problems of the guardians' relatives.

Fang Yuan had another discussion with Vice City Lord Xu, asking him to publicize his identity. However, the other party's attitude was still the same as before.

"Fang my friend, you are already the guardian of our Xu clan. I can't do something to provoke more hatred and trouble for you just because you stood up for our Xu Residence."

Fang Yuan smiled. "Vice City Lord Xu, have you forgotten that I just made it onto the Prodigy Roll a few days ago? If they want to cause trouble for me, you have to consider whether you have the ability or not."

Vice City Lord Xu's eyes lit up when he heard this.

That's right!

Previously, Fang Yuan was just an unknown kid. If he had publicized Fang Yuan's name, he would naturally cause trouble for him.

But now it was different.

He was ranked eighty-seventh on the Prodigy Roll.

Not to mention these lone cultivators, even an expert on the Human roll or the Earth Roll had to consider whether they had the ability to challenge the Prodigy Roll.

The Prodigy Roll represented the strongest hundred among the countless disciples of thousands of sects in Yan Shen Empire!

Thinking of this, Vice City Lord Xu felt much better.

These days, there were many Gu masters in the city who paid attention to the changes in the Prodigy Roll. The more Fang Yuan's reputation spread, the better the deterrence effect.

Vice City Lord Xu's thoughts moved, and he suggested, "Fang my friend, if you do not mind, can I make some adjustments and let the entire Yan Shen Empire know of your existence?"
