Chapter 128: Chapter 126: Rushing to Linglong Bay (Sixth Update)_1
The boys in the class cast "understanding" glances at him the moment he entered the classroom. Their looks seemed to speak volumes, conveying, "Go for it, Brother Ran. When it comes to seating arrangements in the class, we\'ve got your back. All set and solid!"
Fang Ren slapped his forehead and sat down next to Bai Qi with a head full of black lines.
He had barely settled down when Small Qianye suddenly leapt out of his pocket. Fang Ren quickly caught it and whispered, "Class is about to start, you can\'t make any noise."
Small Qianye obediently nodded, then turned around and scurried towards the sleeping Bai Qi, laying on her arm with a silly, smiling face.
Fang Ren couldn\'t understand it. He was clearly its master, but why did it seem like the little guy preferred sticking to Bai Qi?
"Hm?"
Bai Qi felt something touch her arm and lethargically lifted her head, but when she saw Small Qianye, a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
"Little guy, you\'ve run out again," Bai Qi said, petting Small Qianye\'s head with adoration.
"Hee ha hee ha~"
Small Qianye lay in her arms, rubbing its face against her, showing an utterly content expression.
"Mommy can\'t play with you, Mommy\'s so sleepy."
With panda eyes and a goofy smile, Bai Qi then suddenly flopped down on the desk and fell back asleep.
Listening to her words, Fang Ren felt completely disordered. How could she suddenly give birth to Small Qianye out of nowhere?
Seeing Bai Qi sleeping, Small Qianye quickly lay down beside her face and closed its eyes to sleep as well.
Fang Ren suddenly felt like an outsider to this family. He even wanted to grab the little guy and flick its bottom while telling it: You don\'t have a mom! You don\'t have a mom! I\'m the one who brought you into the world!
...
Soon the class started, and it was still Teacher Huang\'s lesson. He entered the classroom with his lesson plan, his face beaming as if something delightful had happened.
As time went on, Teacher Huang\'s lecturing passion was always high, and it was as if he had won several million in the lottery.
Suddenly, his gaze shifted to the back of the classroom and landed on Bai Qi, who was lying on the desk asleep. It was as if he\'d been struck by lightning; he stood frozen in place.
In that moment, he realized that this class wasn\'t the worst he\'d ever taught; the problem was with him.
Sitting down heavily on the stool, Teacher Huang stared at the ceiling, tossed aside his textbook with one hand, and removed his glasses with the other, entering a mode of deep contemplation about life.
I... I really am the worst teacher in this school...
As the class was nearing its end, Fang Ren\'s phone, which he had been holding in his hand the whole time, suddenly lit up. He immediately checked the message.
As expected! It was from Jian Qi\'er!
Without a second thought, Fang Ren stood up: "Teacher! I have diarrhea!"
Teacher Huang, who was sitting on his chair completely disheveled and contemplating his teaching career, weakly waved his hand in the air, "Hurry and go."
Fang Ren didn\'t say another word and ran straight out of the classroom.
Watching Fang Ren\'s retreating figure, Teacher Huang\'s demoralized face suddenly became blank. A few seconds later, he put his glasses back on, picked up the textbook, and shored up his spirits like a man revitalized.
At that moment, he felt as though he had finally come to a profound understanding of life. The fault wasn\'t with him, nor with the world or the class--it was all because of Fang Ren!
Right! That\'s it! He\'s the little rascal! After causing trouble to Liu Qianqian and Xuan Nv, now he won\'t even spare a princess!
Bang--
Teacher Huang slammed his hand on the lectern and spoke seriously, "That Fang Ren is the worst student I have ever taught!"

After Fang Ren left the classroom, he didn\'t act too conspicuous. He didn\'t run towards the school gate but instead carried a calm demeanor.
After all, he didn\'t know where Chen Cheng of the Bai Family was watching everything from, and a sudden panic would have surely raised suspicion.
He checked Jian Qi\'er\'s exact location on his phone. It read the Underground World of Linglong Bay; the rest of the message was Jian Qi\'er telling him to be careful, which routes were safe to take, and her location.
She also highlighted an area not far from the school, where she had stored a Night Walk Robe from the Nightfall Organization, instructing Fang Ren to wear it before heading over to avoid any mistaken conflicts.
After leaving the school gates, Fang Ren hailed a taxi to the designated location to pick up a parcel box containing the so-called Night Walk Robe, and then he took another ride to Linglong Bay.
The journey to Linglong Bay was about a twenty-minute car ride. When the taxi had covered eighty percent of the distance, a sudden, intense roar erupted, resounding through the skies.
Boom--
In the distance, a massive burst of flames shot up toward the sky over Linglong Bay, with various types of elemental cultivation techniques fluttering in the sky.
Squeak!
The taxi suddenly stopped.
"Young man, there\'s a fight up ahead! We can\'t get through!" the driver said in a frantic tone.
"No problem, I\'ll get off here," Fang Ren replied as he left the taxi.
At that moment, a swarm of vehicles that had run out from Linglong Bay flooded the main road, desperately fleeing into the distance.
Fang Ren quickly found a concealed spot and, after making sure no one was around, took out the Night Walk Robe from its box and put it on. He then circulated his True Qi and rushed towards Linglong Bay.
Even as he ran, he purposely headed to a small river, where he took out a Small Elixir Furnace from his storage ring, filled it with water, and then lit the fuel at the bottom.
Finally, he put the water-heating Small Furnace back into his storage ring.
The herbs Lin Bozhong had bought today were indeed timely. These herbs were very expensive and could only be purchased in Tianjiang, with a preliminary estimate of their cost at about 230 million. This sum was not a big issue for the Fang Family.
And since Lin Bozhong had seen his fifth-grade elixirs, he was not afraid of him messing around with the 230 million.
These herbs were prepared by him for this very battle. Although they had not yet been transformed into elixirs, that wasn\'t much of a problem.
Not to mention alchemy skills, Fang Ren was completely confident that he could concoct them with his eyes closed.
So, even if the furnace was in his storage ring, as long as he moved his Divine Sense, he would know what to add next.
Those 230 million worth of herbs, in the hands of a top Grandmaster, could perhaps be turned into nearly 1 billion worth of elixirs, but in his hands, he was sure to create something unknown to the world.
Boom, boom, boom--
As Fang Ren approached Linglong Bay, the booming sounds that filled the sky grew louder and even made his ears ache.
He did not follow the highway directly into Linglong Bay but took a slight detour because the forces near the highway were all from Indra Sky and the Tianjiang Investigation Group.
While taking this detour, Fang Ren could already see three groups of people dressed in different clothes, engaging in unceasing combat in the sky.
Obviously, the group wearing Night Walk Robes belonged to the Nightfall Organization, while the ones in suits, whom Fang Ren had seen before, were from the Tianjiang Investigation Group, and the last group wearing white clothes, the smallest band of them, were likely from Indra Sky.
As Fang Ren neared the location designated by Jian Qi\'er, he saw a male practitioner with a cultivation level around the Liquid Water Realm standing there. He was not participating in the battle; it seemed he was waiting for him.
Thump--
Fang Ren leaped to the man\'s side. The man turned his head, glanced at him, and immediately asked, "May I know if you are Young Master Fang?"
The man\'s voice was very youthful, his eyes clear. Fang Ren took a good look at him and realized that the man was only about fifteen or sixteen years old, no wonder he had been assigned to meet him here rather than go to the battlefield.
"Yes, where is Jian Qi\'er?" Fang Ren asked.
"Great!" The boy\'s face, hidden behind a black veil, broke into a smile as he said, "Sister Qi\'er told me to wait for you here and strictly instructed that I must not let you go over there."
"Why?" Fang Ren frowned.
The boy said, "She mentioned that the main purpose was to let you understand what kind of organization Indra Sky is and to let you have a look at the approximate strength of the enemy, she didn\'t want you to take any risks by going in."
Fang Ren turned to look back at Linglong Bay, where the view was excellent, allowing him to see everything on the entire battlefield.
With that look back, he saw the sky filled with various cultivation techniques constantly bombarding each other, Sword Qi crisscrossing, True Qi swirling...
The whole scene was as if mountains and rivers were being shattered, the entire battlefield probably spanned seven miles, and he couldn\'t see the end of it.
In the center of that battlefield, three massive ice pillars stood tall in the sky, from which ice spikes constantly flew out, targeting the practitioners below. Waves surged onto the land, knocking countless figures into the air, while a hundred-meter-high stone wall attempted to hold back the sea, only to be shattered by a figure with a single punch.
Vines whipped across, decimating forces, while hundreds of meters of Sword Qi kept crushing them. Flames turned into pythons rampaging across the battlefield, and lightning turned into dragons striking at the sky...
And around the periphery of the battlefield were the wars of the lower-level practitioners, clashing with various weapons and cultivation techniques, heads flying, blood turning into rain...
Fang Ren felt his blood boiling as he watched, and then glanced at the boy beside him, "Where approximately is your Sister Qi\'er located?"
"To the southeast, in the central battlefield area, with your current realm, you won\'t make it through, and I don\'t have the ability to join the battle either; I can only stand here and watch," the boy explained.
"You don\'t have the ability to join the battle with your realm?"
"My Spiritual Root has been seized by Indra Sky. Although it seems I still have cultivation, I lack the capability to fight," the boy explained.
"Indra Sky..."
Fang Ren clenched his teeth; so this so-called experiment was to deprive others of their Spiritual Roots! They used these people\'s Spiritual Roots for experiments and then pinned all the blame on the innocent Bai Qi!
"You stand here."
As Fang Ren spoke, a red aura from the Nine Techniques of Lethal Combat began to surge around him.
Pop--
Grasping at the air, Fang Ren\'s entire being shot out from where he stood and charged towards the southeast.
"Young Master Fang! Don\'t go!"
