Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The conversation between Fang Lin and Han Yinyue was bland, but to Wang Zhen, it was as deafening as a thunderclap, leaving him stupefied.
What’s going on? Fang Lin actually knows Miss Han? And judging by their interaction, they seem to have a deep relationship!
Wang Zhen was dumbfounded. He had not expected this at all. Han Yinyue’s arrival threw him into chaos, completely disorienting him.
Only then did Han Yinyue notice Wang Zhen standing to the side, head bowed. Her voice was slightly cold when she asked, “Who are you?”
Wang Zhen shuddered inwardly. Such a change of tone! She was so pleasant when speaking to Fang Lin, but why so cold when addressing him? Wang Zhen dared not to dally and quickly cupped his fists in salute, “I am
Wang Zhen, a senior disciple of the Martial Sect. Greetings Miss Han.”
Upon hearing his name, Han Yinyue revealed a thoughtful expression. Then she said, “So you are that notorious Wang Zhen from the Martial Sect?”
At her words, Wang Zhen was extremely embarrassed and wished he could retreat into a crevice in the ground.
Fang Lin showed curiosity. Surprisingly, this Wang Zhen was quite famous, even Miss Han knew of him. However, it seemed his reputation wasn’t a good one, with Miss Han using such unkind words to describe him.
With his face beet red, Wang Zhen didn’t know what to say, his face feeling as hot as a fever.
Upon confirming that the person was Wang Zhen, Han Yinyue’s expression turned even colder, a tint of disgust was visible in her eyes.
“What is your business with Fang Lin?” Han Yinyue asked coldly.
Wang Zhen stuttered, unable to articulate a response. Fang Lin made no move to expose him, instead standing by with a grin on his face.
As an extremely intelligent individual, with a bit of thought and considering Wang Zhen’s past rumors, Han Yinyue quickly guessed the situation, her expression growing colder.
“I have important matters to discuss with Fang Lin, you may leave.” Han
Yinyue said coldly.
Wang Zhen dared not to linger and quickly made his exit.
“Miss Han, this Wang Zhen came here to bully me, thanks to your timely arrival, otherwise I don’t know how much I would have been teased.” Fang Lin said with a laugh.
Han Yinyue gave a faint smile. “Even if I hadn’t arrived, you wouldn’t have been bullied. I’ve heard of your reputation. It seems that those who want to bully you never end up well.”
Fang Lin scratched his nose embarrassingly. He didn’t expect that Han Yinyue knew all about his mischiefs.
But it was no surprise. After all, she was the daughter of the Sect Master. Could any minor incidents in the Purple Mist Sect possibly be concealed from her?
“You don’t need to address me as Miss Han, just call me Sister Han.” Han Yinyue said.
“As you command, Sister Han.” Fang Lin laughed in response.
Han Yinyue pointed at Fang Lin’s courtyard and asked, “Aren’t you going to invite me in?”
“Sister Han, please!” Fang Lin gestured invitingly.
With a smile, Han Yinyue stepped into Fang Lin’s courtyard. Her gaze swept across numerous medicinal plants cultivated neatly in the garden, the air filled with the strong scent of herbs.
“It seems that Brother Fang has put quite a lot of effort into this garden.” Han Yinyue commented.
Fang Lin laughed, “I was just dabbling around, please don’t make fun of me, sister. ”
Han Yinyue shook her head and started examining the herb garden more seriously. If she hadn’t paid so much attention, she wouldn’t have noticed the peculiarities of the herb garden.
She noticed how all the plants in the garden were lively and vibrant. The soil was clearly fresh, yet the herbs were growing so well. Something was certainly strange.
“The Reviving Dead Wood Body, truly lives up to its reputation.” Han Yinyue admired silently, feeling a tinge of envy in her heart.
She was born with a weak constitution, her meridians extremely fragile. Even with exceptional talent, her brittle meridians could not contain inner strength.
Forcing cultivation would lead to the shattering of the meridians during the fluctuation of inner strength. The consequences could be dire, possibly resulting in death.
Therefore, Han Yinyue yearned to cultivate and was particularly envious of those, like Fang Lin, who had unique physical advantages.
They sat down beside the stone table in the courtyard. Fang Lin prepared a pot of tea for Han Yinyue, a medicinal tea of his own creation.
After taking a sip, Han Yinyue was hit with a strong, medicinal fragrance. It was bitter at first, but a sweet aftertaste lingered, refreshing her spirit.
“It’s so fragrant!” Han Yinyue couldn’t help but comment.
Fang Lin smiled. While this medicinal tea seemed ordinary, it was one of his favourite things to experiment with during his past life. Given better quality herbs, he could brew a longevity tea that could increase one’s lifespan.
“Sister Han, you didn’t come just to express gratitude, did you?” asked Fang Lin with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Han Yinyue put down her cup of tea. After mulling it over for a moment, she asked seriously, “The pill formula in D building, was it really improved by you?”
Fang Lin hesitated for a moment but didn’t deny and nodded.
Considering Han Yinyue’s status, it was clear that she would be privy to the Pill Sect’s secrets. It was only normal for her to know about them.
Seeing Fang Lin’s admission, Han Yinyue was even more surprised.
As a pill refiner herself, even though she hardly refined pills due to her lack of inner strength, she was well aware of how astonishing it was to improve a pill formula.
The pill formulas of the Pill Sect were passed down from generation to generation in the sect and had undergone countless tests. It was almost impossible for them to contain any mistakes.
Yet, Fang Lin improved seventeen of them, making them even more perfect. This was simply unimaginable.
When Han Yinyue first learned of this, she naturally had some doubts. However, after inspecting the improved pill formulas in person, she was left speechless.
Even if she didn’t want to believe it, Han Yinyue had to admit that Fang Lin was indeed a peerless genius. His accomplishment of improving the pill formulas alone was enough to enshrine his name in the history of Pill Sect.
“Brother Fang, you probably know about my sister’s condition.” Han Yinyue said.
Fang Lin nodded, his playful manner fading as solemnity overtook.
The circumstances of the Han sisters indeed prompted sympathy. Even someone as easygoing as Fang Lin could not help but feel a hint of pity deep within his heart.
“My sister is different from me. She has talent and works hard, but she’s blind. I want to help her.” Han Yinyue said quietly.
Fang Lin remained silent. He more or less understood the purpose of Han Yinyue’s visit – she was here for her sister, Han Xiaoxing.
“Why come to me? Don’t tell me that with all the elders in the Pill Sect, none of them have a solution?” asked Fang Lin.
Han Yinyue shook her head. “My father has searched throughout the entirety of
Qian Country, even the Medicine God Sect. Nonetheless, there is no cure for
Xiaoxing’s eyes.”
“In that case, why are you looking for me, Sister Han? I’m just a disciple.” Fang Lin inquired with a furrowed brow.
Han Yinyue looked at Fang Lin directly. “I believe you’re different. You managed to improve the pill formulas of the Pill Sect, having been mentored by a master of alchemy tao. Perhaps, you have some way of treating my sister’s
