Chapter 148: The Situation

Two gigantic banners fluttered in the wind with sounds ringing.

One of them was a battle achievement board; fang Yuan was now among the top ten on the list. Other banners listed all kinds of items that could be exchanged for battle benefits.

However, most of Master Gu in the bustling square paid attention to the newly announced decision.

The content of the announcement was: Waves of wolves are becoming more ferocious and casualties among the Gu Master clans are increasing day by day. In order to strengthen the method of treatment, the medical hall ordered all Master Gu who possessed the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass to temporarily hand them over to the clan. The medical hall will arrange the staff to unify all the production.

There's a list of names in the notification. They were the names of Master Gu who had the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass in the clan.

Naturally, Fang Yuan was also registered.

Right now, he was standing in a far corner looking at this notice; his expression could not help but turn ugly.

At first glance, he realized that this was Gu Yue Yao Ji's action against him.

“Hmph, this Gu Yue Yao Ji is angry that he failed to buy the Liquor worm from me. I had already gathered enough battle benefits to exchange for that Three-Step Fragrant Grass gu, but he prevented this from happening in the dark. Now, he really craves my Nine Leaves Vitality Grass.

Gu Yue Yao Ji's actions were understandable.

People of the same trade are natural enemies.

By controlling the sale of vitality leaves, Gu Yue Yao Ji was able to consolidate his authority, deepen his influence, and maintain his connections. However, Fang Yuan sold them at a higher price, so this unobtrusively violated his profits and shook his influence.

“I have a lot of Gu worms on me now; White Jade Gu, Moonglow Gu, Looting Gu, Water Shield Gu, Earth Communication Ear Grass and more. The Nine Leaf Vitality Grass was my most important economic source; if I lost this Gu, it would be like receiving checkmate. Gu Yue Yao Ji made an extremely ferocious move, ”Fang Yuan frowned.

The discussions of the surrounding Master Gu entered his ears.

“The treatment table makes a really great decision! There is very little vitality left and they cannot meet our needs. Every time a batch appeared on the item board, they would be immediately purchased by someone else. ”

“Older Yao Ji is really gentle and kind. Look at the list of names, it includes some Master Gu from the Chi and Mo factions. He had undoubtedly offended many strong elders with this action. ”

"Older Yao Ji thought to the clan, he deserves respect!"

“Ai, only Mr. Yao Ji has such courage. If it was another elder, who would dare to take such an action? ”

“Eh! Look, the contents of the notification have changed. Gu Master of the Chi and Mo faction has handed over their Nine Leaf Vitality Grass.”

Crowd boiling.

Nine Leaves of Vitality Consolidated Grass and integrated production meant the availability of more leaves of vitality. This is great news for many people.

Fang Yuan watched the notice attentively and quite confidently looked at: Beside this Master Gu roster, there are new words of 'handing over'. Thus, his own name became striking.

His heart felt an increased pressure.

Gu Yue Yao Ji was an old veteran with a deep scheme; with this move, he borrowed the momentum to suppress Fang Yuan. If Fang Yuan refused or disobeyed, it would attract even greater trouble, making people master it; it was by no means a reasonable course of action.

This is the power of the system.

If the clan wants you to make sacrifices, it won't say it right away. Instead it will cover the shiny robe of truth, and give you no choice but to submit.

An example was the recruitment of old Master Gu pensioners and making them sacrifice their lives, how could they refuse?

The current movement of collecting the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass asked Fang Yuan and the other Master Gu to sacrifice their gains to satisfy everyone, and basically to Yao Ji's advantage. Anyone who dared to disobey would go against the clan and seclude themselves! They are traitors and rebels!

“To overcome this, a small scheme such as delaying tactics will not work and will instead put yourself in a more passive state. Yao Ji's move brought truth and public opinion; every little scheme would be destroyed. Only by using greater momentum, fighting back and beating its momentum openly will this finish.”

Fang Yuan already had a solution.

This plan was simple yet grand; advance to Rank three!

Rank three and rank two Gu Masters had completely different statuses. In the clan, any Master Gu who rose to rank three would immediately become an elder and join the decision-making circle. Even the clan head could not easily breach their advantage.

Don't think that Gu Masters from the Mo and Chi factions obediently handed over the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass, seemingly sacrificing their own gains. Behind the scenes, Gu Yue Yao Ji should have already completed a secret transaction with Gu Yue Chi Lian, Gu Yue Mo Chen and the other elders.

It's a political transaction.

However, the majority were unable to see this truth and were tricked by Yao Ji.

If Fang Yuan were a rank three Master Gu, even if he were to hand over the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass, he would definitely get sufficient compensation in other aspects.

Why was Gu Yue Yao Ji so eager to deal with Fang Yuan?

On one hand, it was due to benefits; fang Yuan's actions violated his advantage and he also wanted some Gu worms that were on Fang Yuan's body.

On the other hand, Fang Yuan was already at rank two peak stage; if he did not move now and waited for him to become a rank three elder, there would be no more chances.

“Forward to Rank three is a must. The clan could sacrifice Rank two Master Gu, but Rank three Master Gu was its pillar and any losses would inflict great damage. Besides, I've gathered too many problems. Qing Shu died but the clan did not conduct a careful investigation. I have the Water Shield Gu, the Looting Gu, and other Gu worms, but the clan has turned a blind eye to him. My cultivation progressed very quickly, the higher-ups knew it clearly, but held it back and have yet to check on my secrets. ”

On the surface, he looked strong and rich, but he was actually surrounded by danger.

The clan did not move against him as their attention was completely fixed on the wolf tide. If they could not withstand the wave of wolves, the clan would be destroyed. In front of such pressure, Fang Yuan's situation was only a small detail to them.

However, after the wave of wolves disappeared, the clan higher-ups would regain their energy; how could they not search for him to settle the account?

Before in the academy, the clan elders did not move against Fang Yuan because he was too weak. He took small steps and did not violate their benefits, so as not to attract their attention.

But, it's different now.

Fang Yuan's cultivation was already at rank two peak stage, if he took it one step further, he would become an elder.

Enough of this cultivation had already touched the nerves of the elders. His every move was observed and noticed by the elders.

Every newly advanced elder could affect the entire political situation of the Gu Yue clan. This resulted in the continuous suppression of Fang Yuan. Moreover, Fang Yuan had yet to join the system and enter any faction, so this made the suppression even more intense.

The neutral faction is also a faction.

No one could tolerate the current Fang Yuan, someone who roamed outside the clan system.

“If I rise to rank three, the suppression will definitely be much lower than now, although they will still be there. Rank three is the point of qualitative change, the threshold. Stepping through it will take one to a whole new world. Similarly, with the cultivation of rank three, I can freely move. At worst, I will just leave the clan. ” Fang Yuan is clear about this.

However, rising to rank three was not an easy matter. Especially considering Fang Yuan's C-class talent, it was almost an impossible barrier.

In his previous life, he had been stalled at rank two peak stage for over a hundred years. Until after that, he paid a painful price to obtain Gu and promote his talent. Only then could he get through this predicament.

In the cultivation of Master Gu, it was easy to advance through the small realm, they only needed enough time and patience. However, every great realm has a barrier, and the higher you go, the harder it is to cross. Especially the difficulty of rising from Rank five to Rank six was beyond imagination, harder than ascending to heaven!

Fang Yuan had already experienced a lot of difficulty to move up from Rank one to Rank two. Now, to rise from Rank two to Rank three, there was no possibility of succeeding by following the traditional route.

Fortunately, in Fang Yuan's vast life experience and memories of five hundred years, there were two to three methods. Saying it well, it was an alternate path but saying it harshly, it was a demonic practice.

This option was perfect for Fang Yuan's current situation.

With this option, rising to Rank three requires one to fix the strange and bloody Gu — Gu Burial of Human-animal Life. An ancient demon path sect leader had made an earnest effort and found this recipe to strengthen the cultivation of his subordinates.

Gu Burying Human-beast Life was specialized for Rank two Master Gu to break through to rank three realms.

In his previous life, Fang Yuan explored unknown places and coincidentally discovered this recipe. It had made a deep impression on him and he firmly remembered it.

The important point is that the materials needed for fusion are not uncommon.

If it was normal time, Fang Yuan might need two-three years to gather it, given the circumstances. But the wolf wave gave him a great opportunity.

He had already collected quite a number of ancient stones and Gu worms. The only thing left is to wait for the right moment.

"Everyone, quickly look at the notification that the medicinal hall just issued. ”

"They want to collect the Nine Leaf Vitality Grass and unify the production of vitality leaves?"

“This is great news.”

In the bamboo building, a group of Master Gu gathered near the announcement that was affixed to the wall. They were all filled with excitement as they read it.

"Hahaha, I think Fang Yuan almost cried."

“Hmph, serve him properly for selling vitality leaves at a high price, exploiting our hard earned money!”

"I really want to see what expression Fang Yuan has now."

Many rejoice at the misfortune of others.

“Hehehe, this really makes us take our revenge. We really need to thank Miss Yao Le for this, if she did not persuade Mr Yao Ji, how could there be such a day?”

"Right, we are very grateful to Miss Yao Le."

“Nona Yao Le is not only beautiful, she is also kind, upholding justice and justice for us. He has the attitude of Lord Yao Ji.”

As she heard the continuous praise, Gu Yue Yao Le timidly lowered her head, she felt happy.

"Little sister Yao Le." Right at this moment, Xiong Jiao Man entered through the door, “I came to say goodbye. I saw the notification of the medicine hall, I'm very grateful to you for letting me vent my anger. People like Fang Yuan are scapegoats and need to be controlled.”

"Sister, are you going?" Gu Yue Yao Le threw a concerned look.

Xiong Jiao Man placed one hand on his hip and pointed his other thumb at the group of Master Gu who were standing outside the door, saying, “I've asked for reinforcements, you know, I need to get back quickly. Let's meet again next time.”

Yao Le's heart was filled with grief.

Xiong Jiao Man had ten Master Gu when he left his clan, but there were only seven left when he got here. Now, this Master Gu was about to step onto the cruel battlefield again, how many of them could return safely?
