Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 398: Fang Chen's Instructions

Fang Jue was a little shocked. "Master, what is a Snake Spirit Fruit? Little Junior Sister's injuries were clearly severe, but now they're almost completely healed?"

Fang Lingxing and the others noticed the commotion and looked over.

Fang Mosheng and a few other Foundation Establishment cultivators approached. Their expressions were filled with shock.

"Fang Ao, where did Fang Chen get the Snake Spirit Fruit? This is a peak-grade, yellow-rank spirit fruit. I've heard that it only appears in the Azure Cloud Empire and the Hidden Immortal Empire."

The prices of peak-grade, yellow-rank spirit fruits varied mainly based on their effects. A cultivator might be able to buy a spirit fruit of that quality for one to two hundred spirit stones, which wasn't considered particularly expensive. However, it could be that the Snake Spirit Fruit was sacred medicine when it came to healing injuries. This fruit could even do wonders for a Golden Core Realm cultivator who's severely injured.

Therefore, the price of the Snake Spirit Fruit was not low. The Fang Family had obtained a few of them over the past few hundred years, but they had all been used up.

"I don't know. All I know is that Fang Chen used this Snake Spirit Fruit to save Fang Yun. If not for that, her injuries would have seriously impacted her foundation," said Fang Ao in a deep voice.

"You don't need to worry about this. Even though Jiang Shun's disciple injured your daughter, not only did the Snake Spirit fruit heal her internal injuries, but the residual spiritual energy from the fruit will also nourish her veins. This can be considered a blessing in disguise," said Fang Tingjian with a smile as he walked over. "Aside from that, I intend to give Fang Jue this Purple Extreme Dao Academy token. What do you think?"

Fang Wanli smiled and said, "The three branches of our family have all gained something from this misfortune."

Giving the disciple token to Fang Jue?

The crowd was startled, and shock appeared all over their faces.

The seniors from the main branch and the second branch hesitated to speak, while the cultivators from the fourth branch remained silent, unaffected by the news.

Fang Kun was the family Head, so he was quick to notice the awkward atmosphere.

"Elders, the Purple Extreme Dao Academy token is of great importance. I propose that we give it to either Fang Lingxing, Fang Shang, or Fang Xiu. Those three are all more talented than Fang Jue and are more suitable to join the Purple Pole Dao Academy."

There was a glimmer of excitement in Fang Mosheng's eyes. This would give his daughter another chance to become a disciple of Master Chen and possibly join the Purple Pole Dao Academy. It was an incredible opportunity that they had to have!

"Master, elders, what the Head said is right. They are more talented than I am. The Purple Extreme Dao Academy token is extremely valuable and should not be wasted," Fang Jue said respectfully.

"Fang Chen was the one who obtained the Purple Extreme Dao Academy token, so the three branches must have priority," said Fang Xiu.

The cultivator from the fourth branch glanced at him, nodded lightly, and added, "Fang Xiu is correct. The three branches have priority."

Fang Mosheng frowned and rebuked. "This concerns the entire family. Whether it's the three branches or the main branch, we are all members of the same family and should all be treated fairly."

The cultivator from the fourth branch glanced at him, a faint cold smile appearing on his face. However, he didn't say anything more.

"The second branch has no objections. We will follow the arrangements of the ancestors and the Head." the Foundation Building Realm cultivators from the second branch exchanged a glance with each other, deciding not to participate. That way, they wouldn't antagonize the main branch nor create enmity with the third and fourth branches.

Fang Ao lightly furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and then whispered, "Ancestors, if anyone should have this token, it's Fang Chen."

Fang Tingjian lightly shook his head. "Fang Chen is not fit to have the disciple token. If he joins the Purple Pole Dao Academy, it may bring calamity, which would not only affect the academy but it'll also affect our family. I have other arrangements for him. He won't be treated unfairly."

The Foundation Building Realm cultivators present understood his words and had a sudden realization. However, those in the Qi Refining Realm who didn't know Fang Chen's background felt confused. Why would Fang Chen joining the Purple Pole Dao Academy bring calamity?

Fang Wanli nodded. "That's right. Fang Chen was the one who won the disciple token, so we won't mistreat him. During the upcoming trade conference, there will be Foundation Building Pills for sale. We will make sure to get one for him."

"Foundation Building Pills!?"

"This..."

Both the Foundation Building Realm and Qi Refining Realm cultivators present were somewhat shocked. While the disciple token from the Purple Pole Dao Academy was important and expensive, the value of a Foundation Building Pill far surpassed it in terms of immediate benefits.

"Elders, didn't we say... that if there's a Foundation Building Pill, my daughter will have priority…?" Fang Mosheng pondered aloud.

"That was the case before. But now Fang Chen's strength far surpasses Lingxing's, so it would be for the best if he's the one promoted to the Foundation Building Realm first," said Fang Tingjian.

No one dared to refute Fang Tingjian's words.

Fang Mosheng secretly contemplated that if Fang Lingxing could enter the Purple Pole Dao Academy, then it wasn't a big deal to give Fang Chen the Foundation Building Pill.

"Fang Jue, you don't have to refuse. Fang Chen told us just now through transmission that you should be the one to have the token," said Fang Tingjian with a faint smile.

"Fang Chen didn't just win us the token, he also fought for our honor. Even if it’s for our sake, please accept it."

Fang Wanli smiled. "If we don't accept it, wouldn't it make the people below feel sad?"

Everyone suddenly understood why Fang Tingjian wanted to give Fang Jue the token. It turned out Fang Chen was the one who said to do so!

"Ancestors, Fang Chen is just a Qi Refining Realm cultivator. He doesn't know how to consider the bigger picture and make long-term arrangements. He only acts on impulse. I hope you will reconsider, ancestors," said Fang Kun with clasped hands and a bow.

Fang Tingjian shook his head and handed the disciple token to Fang Jue. "I don't have to reconsider. After the trade conference ends, you can go back to the Purple Pole Dao Academy's Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. However, whether you can enter the Purple Pole Dao Academy will depend on your own ability."

Fang Jue felt like he was dreaming. He had obtained a big opportunity like this just like that?

Amidst the crowd, Fang Hao was excited. The brighter Fang Jue's future was, the more he, his younger brother, would benefit.

Fang Hao felt both guilty and grateful. “Fang Chen is repaying enmity with kindness. I did make mistakes in the past, but thankfully, my brother is kind-hearted and didn't offend him because of me.”

Fang Ao and Jing Jing were very excited. Never did they expect that the third branch would be able to benefit from this day's misfortune. And all of that was thanks to Fang Chen's efforts alone!

"Dear, I once blamed you for bringing a disciple of unknown origin back to the third branch. I was short-sighted," Jing Jing transmitted to Fang Ao.

"Exactly," responded Fang Ao reflexively. However, a few moments later, he suddenly realized what he had said.

He turned to look at Jing Jing and found that her eyes had turned cold

An embarrassed look appeared on Fang Ao's face.

"If there's nothing else, let's disperse. Focus your attention on the trade conference during this time. We don't have any room for mistakes," said Fang Tingjian. He then left with Fang Wanli.

After they left, Fang Ao and his wife also hurriedly left with their people.

Fang Mosheng's expression became extremely gloomy after everyone left.

Fang Kun glanced at him and said lightly. "Mosheng, don't hold a grudge against the ancestor because of his arrangements."
