Fang Yu conducts himself always seeking a clear conscience.

Tuoba Yong showing such boldness, to stand against the Five Great Divine Palaces, even if he's a heart battling for team, wanting to take a chance. That is still acceptable. After all, leading over a hundred people, with the strength of Circulation Heaven Position, and facing other Sect Masters, as well as the Five Great Divine Palaces behind, this kind of boldness and courage is not something ordinary people can possess.

If he can be persuaded to join us, it can be considered a great addition to our strength.

Moreover, based on what I know and understand about Tuoba Yong, he is not the type of person who would forsake loyalty for personal gain.

"Think carefully… consider your current situation… Even if I destroyed Lou Shan, the Five Great Divine Palaces still need to weigh the pros and cons. But you're different, you lead people to openly be enemies with the Five Great Divine Palaces, in the future, they will hardly accommodate you. Given that, do you still hope for me to join the Five Great Divine Palaces?"

"This…"

Tuoba Yong's mind went blank.

He was thinking of mediating, even stopping it, but regrettably, he really didn't expect the situation to develop into the uncontrollable circumstance it is now.

While he was deep in thought, the people from Taia Sect had already arrived at the entrance of the hall.

Everyone instinctively looked over.

Clearly, many people hadn't seen them before; the people from Taia Sect appeared, inevitably bringing some tension to the atmosphere.

What's different from the Five Great Divine Palaces is…

The Taia Sect has few disciples; the total population of Taia Mountain is not more than a hundred. Even the Bai Ze lineage has ten times more people than them.

Therefore—

Every individual from the Taia Sect possesses great strength.

Otherwise, how could they stand shoulder to shoulder with the Five Great Divine Palaces.

The person walking at the forefront was an older middle-aged man who looked somewhat scholarly with a serious demeanor in his brows, revealing a traditional air.

There were two people following him.

Similarly not young, they looked like they were in their prime.

These two people were recognized by the young members of the Fang Family. They were brothers Gu Zhenxiong and Gu Yanghong, who had previously visited.

As for the man in front, no one had met him before, but his position at the forefront indicated his high status.

No one dared to underestimate the people from Taia Sect.

Just as everyone felt the tense atmosphere as if facing a formidable enemy—

The slightly scholarly middle-aged man was the first to salute and said: "The student pays respects to the teacher."

"Fang Teacher."

"Fang Teacher."

The Gu brothers saluted with their hands.

The three men's postures were utterly respectful and they bowed slightly.

Seeing this scene, Tuoba Yong's brows furrowed.

He couldn't help but be startled inside, could it be... Fang Teacher has already joined the Taia? Did Taia give him a very high-status, powerful position, which is why the people of Taia are treating him so respectfully?

Fang Yu waved his hand and said, "Ping Wenfu, how are the renovations in the Taia's Lotus Pond coming along?"

Hearing this name.

Tuoba Yong was taken aback, couldn't help it, and raised his hand saying, "Wait… Fang Teacher, this master, is he Taia's Doctor Ping, known as the Divine Doctor of Taia whose Medical Skills are divine, capable of bringing the dead back to life, Mister Ping Wenfu?"

Upon hearing this.

Ping Wenfu's face turned red, if it were before, he would accept this praise. But now…

Ping Wenfu quickly bowed and waved his hands, saying, "In front of the teacher, I dare not claim to be a Divine Doctor, nor dare to say that my Medical Skills are divine. In front of the teacher, my Medical Skill is just at the beginner level. Please, don't speak carelessly."

"…" Tuoba Yong looked dumbfounded.

Ping Wenfu then lifted his head and answered Fang Yu, "To answer the teacher's question… The Lotus Pond on Taia Mountain has suffered severe damage, and due to a shortage of manpower, repairs will take some time. The Lotus Pond is also several thousand square meters in size, with all the surrounding trees and stones reduced to rubble, and even clearing up takes some time."

"That long, huh…" Fang Yu smiled apologetically, "It's all my fault for not being careful, causing damage to Taia Mountain."

"No, no, no… It's Taia's honor for the teacher to have made a breakthrough in Taia, this kind of damage is something Taia can withstand," Ping Wenfu said.

Gu Zhenxiong also bowed and said:

"Old Sect Master asked me to convey a message to you, sir... You left in haste, and many matters have not yet had the chance to be discussed. Whenever you have resolved the Fang Family's issues, you can always return to Taia."

Fang Yu nodded and said, "Understood... As you've seen upon your arrival, my Fang Family is in shambles, not as well-off as your rear mountains..."

Gu Zhenxiong snorted coldly and said:

"Who dares to lay hands on sir's family, this is absolutely absurd. Gu Zhenxiong is willing to lead men to slaughter their entire clan and exterminate them all!"

These words were severe.

It sent shivers down everyone's spines.

People say that those from Taia don't like to engage in ruthless battles.

But unexpectedly, with just a few words spoken, they are ready to kill someone's entire family.

"Forget it... They are dead anyway," Fang Yu said indifferently.

Gu Zhenxiong wasn't surprised.

After all, following Fang Yu's breakthrough, the destructive power he exhibited informed them that Fang Yu had the capability to kill those of the Circulation Heaven Position.

"Old Sect Master asked me to bring this to you."

As he spoke, Gu Zhenxiong took out a book from his chest and respectfully approached Fang Yu.

The sharp-eyed noticed the name on the cover— 'Nine-character Mantra Seal'.

Fang Yu was surprised and waved his hand, "But this is the town-treasure of Taia, isn't it improper to just give it to me, an outsider, like this?"

"This... was a personal request from the Old Sect Master. To this day, no one has practiced the True Word Seal up to the ninth character. He doesn't wish to see such a treasure lost to time. With your exceptional talent, sir, you will surely be able to pass down the Nine-character Mantra Seal."

Cough, cough.

Fang Yu coughed.

With a bit of embarrassment, he said: "If that's the case, I'll accept it."

In fact, Fang Yu had learned it long ago.

Back when he was Dragon Emperor in his previous life, he often took advantage of the Taia Sect.

He also knew the Nine-character Mantra Seal because he often saw the Old Sect Master practice it; watching him, he learned it himself.

To avoid demoralizing the Old Sect Master, he never told him and also never displayed it in front of others.

Since the Old Sect Master had now gifted the Nine-character True Word Array, Fang Yu could now rightfully display True Word-type seals in front of others.

Therefore, he was not shy about accepting it and agreed to take it directly.

Gu Zhenxiong placed the secret manual on the table in front of Fang Yu, then respectfully withdrew.

However...

Tuoba Yong was astonished.

Taia Sect had actually given their unique secret manual to Fang Yu!

This...

How could this be?

His eyes widened in shock.

What exactly is the relationship between the Old Sect Master of Taia Sect, Fu Xi Emperor, and Fang Yu?

A series of doubts emerged.

...

Ping Wenfu saluted again, "Old Sect Master said... Now that you are in need of people, sir, the three of us will stay with the Fang Family. Should you have any orders, sir, the three of us will go through fire and water and will not hesitate. Even if it means mobilizing the entire Taia, just a word from Master Fang will suffice!"

Tuoba Yong was dumbfounded: "..."

Fang Yu said indifferently, "The old fellow is really quite thoughtful... The three of you can stay, as for others, it's better not to come to the city for now. Spiritual Energy is currently being restored... but there are still many mysteries unsolved. Acting rashly will only lead to being cannon fodder."

"Yes!"
