Chapter 41 The Banquet

Fang Yue couldn't help but complain inwardly.

But that was all.

He found that as he controlled his inner strength to pour into the Ningtai Ring (condensed-state ring), his control over his inner strength was becoming increasingly skilled and refined.

Fang Yue thought of the artificial guiyi (strange entity) of the Desolate Ruins.

That guy copied my character data, but when he used the Lie Huo Xin Fa (Fierce Fire Heart Method), he condensed the flames into an incandescent white color, as if the power had been taken to another level.

Fang Yue had tried it later, but he couldn't condense such concentrated flames at all, let alone turn the flames into incandescent white.

Fang Yue understood that this was because his micro-control of inner strength was insufficient, and his control was lacking.

But Fang Yue was a self-taught practitioner, who had always relied on brute force. He didn't have any secret manuals on the fine manipulation of inner strength to read, so he had to rely on his own exploration. Therefore, he was not surprised by this result.

Now, through this Ningtai Ring (condensed-state ring), Fang Yue felt that his control over inner strength was gradually becoming skilled, which was equivalent to having an extra way to exercise in this area.

I wonder if Ni Dongmei did this inadvertently, or if she's deliberately helping me in secret.

As Fang Yue thought of this, An Manor was already faintly visible ahead.

Unexpectedly, someone was actually waiting at the entrance of An Manor.

As soon as they saw Fang Yue, they immediately surrounded him.

"Brother Ye, after Grandpa learned that you had returned to the village, he has been waiting for you in the manor."

An Dong'er, the adopted younger sister whom An Shenyi (Divine Physician An) had forced upon Fang Yue, was one of the people waiting at the door.

"He's waiting for me? Is there something urgent? If there's something urgent, why didn't he send someone to call me directly?"

"That's not the case. Grandpa is just very happy that you returned to the village safely, and he wants to invite you to drink."

Going out into the wilderness is not an easy task for anyone.

Even Lang Wu, the general captain whose strength is as strong as the first-rate acquired realm, may fall in the wilderness.

Therefore, being able to return to the village safely from the wilderness is something worth celebrating and rejoicing for most people.

Fang Yue didn't understand these worldly ways, but Divine Physician An did.

He had seen too many human tragedies, and he was sincerely happy for the people around him to be able to return safely from the wilderness.

Without thinking too much, Fang Yue struck a spark and entered An Manor.

Adopted younger sister An Dong'er blinked her bright, shiny eyes, curiously staring at Fang Yue's Ningtai Ring (condensed-state ring), seeming to find it very fun and novel.

But she was very well-mannered, and only couldn't help but take a few more glances, without asking anything.

When they arrived at the main hall of An Manor, Fang Yue saw Divine Physician An hosting a grand banquet.

And at the banquet, there was only him, and an empty seat next to him.

"Ye Ye! You've finally arrived, the dishes will be cold if you don't come!"

Divine Physician An stood up, laughed loudly, came over, hugged Fang Yue, and pulled Fang Yue to sit down.

"Don't dislike that the dishes are a little cold, they've been reheated twice."

Listening to Divine Physician An's words, Fang Yue felt a little touched in his heart.

Putting everything else aside, since leaving Guyue Village (Old Moon Village), Divine Physician An has been very kind to him, and taken care of him very well.

Their relationship wasn't so polite. After eating and drinking their fill, and after a few rounds of wine, they began to talk.

"I heard that the Yangxu guiyi (sheep illusion strange entity) army outside the village has dispersed. It seems you succeeded."

"Just a fluke."

"Oh, my, Ye Ye has become modest!"

He had to be modest. After seeing freaks like the Desolate Guigui (Strange Entity) and Master Seven-Eight-Nine, Fang Yue increasingly understood that there were heavens beyond the heavens, and people beyond people.

With his strength, it's better to keep a low profile.

"Divine Physician An, barring any accidents, I and the escort team will be preparing to leave Mo Village tomorrow and start our journey back to Guyue Village (Old Moon Village)."

"So soon? Didn't you just return to the village?"

"I'm not in a hurry, but General Captain Lang Wu is anxious. The situation in Mo Village is getting more and more serious, and he's hoping that Lord Han will show mercy."

Divine Physician An was silent when he heard this.

He was also a person of Mo Village. If Lord Han didn't show mercy, then he would be in trouble too.

There was also the Extreme Ice Sect. He was still hoping that Lord Han would open his golden mouth and protect him regarding the matter of offending the Extreme Ice Sect back then.

Although Ni Dongmei, the Extreme Ice Sect elder who didn't care about anything, didn't seem to know anything about Divine Physician An's little troubles back then.

"It's good to go back early, it's good to go back early. I've also researched Fei Bai Dan (Flying White Pill) to a similar stage. When I announce it, I'll suppress the reputation of Divine Physician Luo and regain the title of First Divine Physician. You have to take time to come and celebrate with me."

"Haha! You're still thinking about this matter. Alright, when you regain the title of First Divine Physician, I'll come and support you."

Fang Yue thought that it would take at least half a year to a year for Divine Physician An to stabilize the training of Fei Bai Dan (Flying White Pill), then produce it in large quantities, and then spread it from village to village by word of mouth, and finally surpass his reputation.

Therefore, Fang Yue didn't mind agreeing to the appointment half a year or even a year later.

After chatting with Divine Physician An for a while, Divine Physician An suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Ye Ye, did the Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill) I gave you come in handy?"

It was more than just coming in handy, it was simply a stroke of genius!

Fang Yue immediately expressed his gratitude to Divine Physician An, and then asked: "Divine Physician An, does the [Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill)] you gave me contain a very high amount of guiliang (strange quantity)? After I took it, my eyes turned black, black blood flowed, and I turned into the appearance of a black-tier elementary guiyi (strange entity). Lord Ni Dongmei said that this is because the [Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill)] prescription is wrong, and the [guiliang (strange quantity)] is too high. You have to improve it."

Originally, Divine Physician An was listening to Fang Yue happily.

But when Fang Yue said that he had turned into a guiyi (strange entity), and even mentioned that the [Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill)] contained too much guiliang (strange quantity), his face instantly changed, turned pale, and he suddenly jumped up from his seat.

As Fang Yue was slightly taken aback, he saw Divine Physician An widen his eyes and stare at Fang Yue intently.

"You, you just said, you turned into a guiyi (strange entity)?"

Divine Physician An's voice trembled, as if he was extremely afraid.

Fang Yue quickly said: "You misunderstood, I wasn't possessed by a guiyi (strange entity). I'm fine. I was briefly transformed by the Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill). Now, I'm completely fine."

Seeing that Fang Yue was really normal, Divine Physician An's heart finally settled down.

But he was still a little nervous: "...Ye Ye, let me tell you this, the [Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill)] that I refined was refined according to the standard prescription. The word [guiliang (strange quantity)] represents the ingredients related to guiyi (strange entity) contained in a pill. And the [guiliang (strange quantity)] of the [Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill)] that I refined is even lower than the standard prescription! This is in order to better control the power of the outbreak and reduce the sequelae. It has nothing to do with you briefly turning into a guiyi (strange entity)!"

What?!

Fang Yue's pupils shrank, and his face changed slightly.

"You, you mean, Ni Dongmei lied to me?"

"I wouldn't dare to speculate on Lord Ni Dongmei's thoughts. The only thing I can guarantee is that the [Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill)] is definitely fine. There must be another reason for you briefly turning into a guiyi (strange entity). It may be related to the characteristics of the Xiongyuan Dan (Ferocious Origin Pill) overdrawing your potential, or it may be related to your own physique, or... being possessed by a guiyi (strange entity) without knowing it!"
