Hearing Mo Han and Mo Yiqing's words, the enforcement elder in charge of the deathmatch shook his head. He stood up and said, "The news I heard doesn't seem to match what you two said."
"Enforcement Elder, Fang Chen's cowardice is well known. What else is there to say?" Mo Yiqing said.
"Although Fang Chen didn't participate in the deathmatch and that is his fault, our Sword Reverence Sect isn't an unreasonable Sect. Fang Chen still hasn't returned to the Sect. Perhaps he doesn't even know about this so-called deathmatch."
"Enforcement Elder, what if Fang Chen never returns?" Mo Han asked coldly as he stared at the Enforcement Elder.
The enforcement elder thought for a moment and then said, "We'll wait three days. If Fang Chen doesn't return in three days, then we'll deal with him according to the sect rules."
After that, Elder of Law Enforcement turned around and left.
Mo Han and Mo Yiqing exchanged a glance. Their eyes were filled with killing intent.
Just like that, the deathmatch between Mo Han and Fang Chen became a joke because Fang Chen didn't return to the Sword Reverence Sect in time.
However, Mo Han didn't give up. He had been waiting for Fang Chen to return.
Of course, in Mo Han's heart, it would be even better if Fang Chen didn't return. Because after these three days, Fang Chen would be expelled from the Sect. At that time, he would be at his mercy.
Time slowly passed. In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. During these two days, there was no news from Fang Chen. All the disciples were puzzled. Could it be that Fang Chen was really cowardly?
No matter how they guessed, they couldn't guess that Fang Chen had already returned to the Sword Reverence Peak. He just hadn't entered the Sword Reverence Sect.
The place where Fang Chen had fainted was a very secluded place on the Sword Reverence Peak. Ordinary cultivators wouldn't come here, let alone discover the unconscious Fang Chen.
Fang Chen had been in a coma for two days. During these two days, the Little Mouse had been guarding Fang Chen, as if it was afraid that Fang Chen would be hurt.
After being unconscious for two days, Fang Chen finally woke up.
"It hurts."
As soon as Fang Chen woke up, he wanted to move his arm, but he found that his whole body was sore.
"Damned Luo Xuan, damned Luo Hanshan."
Thinking of Luo Xuan and Luo Hanshan, Fang Chen's heart was filled with hatred. If it weren't for the black ironstone, Fang Chen would have already died at Luo Hanshan's hands.
If he did not take revenge, he would not be a gentleman. Fang Chen secretly swore in his heart that when he was strong enough, he would definitely slaughter that old man Luo Hanshan.
However, it was too unrealistic to think about these things right now. He needed to heal his injuries first, and when he was fully healed, he would return to the Sword Reverence Sect.
These past few days, Luo Hanshan must have been frantically searching for him. In this dangerous situation, the Sword Reverence Sect was the safest place.
Even as an Alchemy Grandmaster, Luo Hanshan didn't dare to enter the Sword Reverence Sect without permission.
Chirping.
Seeing that Fang Chen had woken up, the little mouse chirped with a face full of smiles.
Fang Chen looked at the Little Mouse and nodded. He began to circulate the Spiritual Qi in his Qi Sea to heal his injuries.
An hour later, Fang Chen was able to move freely. He slowly sat up, but at this time, Fang Chen discovered that his Dantian's Qi Sea had been damaged.
"This …"
Fang Chen's face was filled with helplessness. He hadn't expected that old man Luo Hanshan would secretly do something like this, almost crippling him.
The Qi Sea was the symbol of a Qi Sea expert. Once the Qi Sea was destroyed, a martial artist would instantly become a cripple. That old man Luo Hanshan was too sinister. He actually wanted to secretly destroy his Qi Sea.
Fortunately, with the black ironstone's power, Fang Chen was able to escape quickly. His Qi Sea had only been damaged a little.
"Luckily I had the black ironstone." Fang Chen secretly said in his heart.
The black ironstone was Fang Chen's trump card. He had originally planned to use it in a life and death situation, but he hadn't expected to use it on Luo Hanshan.
Without his trump card, he would have to be careful when he went out in the future.
"The damage to my Qi Sea caused my Spiritual Qi to be unable to circulate smoothly. My strength has decreased greatly. I must repair my Qi Sea as soon as possible." Fang Chen said.
Two hours later, other than the damage to his Qi Sea, Fang Chen's injuries had basically healed. He stood up and looked around, then brought the Little Mouse back to the Sword Reverence Sect.
If he wanted to repair his damaged Qi Sea, he would need to go to the Sword Reverence Sect's pill shop to buy some powerful pills. Otherwise, with Fang Chen's strength, it would be impossible for him to repair his Qi Sea.
Fang Chen didn't know that his return had caused a huge uproar in the outer sect.
Countless disciples cried out in alarm when they saw that Fang Chen had returned. There were even some disciples who directly went to call Mo Han.
When Mo Han heard the news of Fang Chen's return, he had quickly rushed over.
"Fang Chen, you still dare to come back?" Mo Han blocked Fang Chen's path and he coldly said.
"Why wouldn't I dare to come back?" Fang Chen looked at Mo Han, his eyebrows raised in displeasure. "I'm very curious. What kind of courage do you have to stand here and block me?"
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Mo Han laughed heartily. "Fang Chen, two days ago when we had a life and death battle, you actually didn't dare to come back. I thought you would continue to hide outside and not return to the Sword Reverence Sect."
"Life and death battle?"
Fang Chen was a bit puzzled. But when he heard the discussions of the surrounding disciples, his face became completely gloomy.
In Jian Zhou City, he had almost died at Luo Hanshan's hands. He hadn't expected that as soon as he returned to the Sword Reverence Sect, he would hear someone propose a life and death battle.
Fang Chen's heart was filled with fury. Clenching his fists, a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"You want to have a life and death battle with me?" Fang Chen icily asked.
"Hmph, two days ago was the time for our life and death battle, but you didn't come. Now that you've returned, we can have a life and death battle," said Mo Han.
Just as Mo Han was speaking, a figure appeared in the crowd.
"Fang Chen, you've returned." The enforcement elder looked at Fang Chen.
Fang Chen nodded to the enforcement elder. The latter explained the matter of the life and death battle to Fang Chen. Fang Chen completely understood.
"How sinister."
Fang Chen looked at Mo Han and thought to himself. If he had not woken up in time and missed these three days, he would definitely be expelled from the sect. When that time came, his life would be in Mo Han's hands.
"Since you want me to die, then I'll let you die first."
Fang Chen's heart was filled with killing intent. If he had the chance, he would definitely kill Mo Han.
The enforcement elder saw that Fang Chen's expression was a bit ugly. He immediately said, "Two days ago, I said that I would wait three days for Fang Chen. Now only two days have passed. Fang Chen has just returned. The life and death battle between the two of you will be set for tomorrow."
Mo Han didn't dare oppose the enforcement elder's words. He coldly looked at Fang Chen, his heart filled with anger.
After saying that, the enforcement elder turned and left.
Fang Chen was just about to leave when he suddenly felt a powerful force behind him. He subconsciously dodged, but with a bang, his body flew out uncontrollably.
Bang!
Fang Chen's body directly fell to the ground.
"Hmph, tomorrow will be the day you die."
Mo Han retracted his fist. His eyes were full of disdain. He coldly snorted and turned to leave.
The surrounding warriors shook their heads. Fang Chen couldn't even withstand a punch from Mo Han. Tomorrow's life and death battle was destined to be a bloody day.
Fang Chen, who had fallen to the ground, slowly stood up. He gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and turned to leave, leaving the crowd to see the vicissitude of his back.
Everything was because of his damaged Qi Sea. If Fang Chen's Qi Sea hadn't been damaged, he wouldn't have had to dodge that blow. He could even have made a sharp counterattack.
However, because of his damaged Qi Sea, Fang Chen suddenly couldn't circulate his Spirit Qi, allowing Mo Han's punch to land on his body.
"I'll let you be proud for a day." Fang Chen said coldly.
Fang Chen went straight to the pill shop. After arriving, Fang Chen directly told the staff that he needed elixirs to repair his Qi Sea.
"I need elixirs to repair my Qi Sea." Fang Chen said.
"Wait a moment." The staff smiled and said.
After a while, the staff gave Fang Chen the details of an elixir and said, "In our recipe, there are a total of three kinds of elixirs that can repair one's Qi Sea. One of them is a top-grade Origin Level elixir, and the other two are low-level Spirit Level elixirs."
Fang Chen looked at it. The top-grade Origin Level elixir cost 500 Upper Grade Spirit Stones each, while the low-level Spirit Level elixir cost 1,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones each.
"One hundred of each." Fang Chen said.
"Okay." The staff heard this and his face was full of smiles.
Then, he went to prepare. In a short while, three hundred elixirs were prepared.
The top-grade Origin Level elixir cost 500 Upper Grade Spirit Stones each, so one hundred elixirs cost a total of 50,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones. As for the low-level Spirit Level elixirs, there were two hundred elixirs in total. Each elixir cost 1,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones, so the total value was 200,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones.
The three elixirs cost Fang Chen a total of 250,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones. This may be a large number for others, but for Fang Chen, it was nothing.
After paying 250,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones, Fang Chen still had 550,000 Upper Grade Spirit Stones left.
After buying the elixirs, Fang Chen left the pill shop and returned to his courtyard.
Time was of the essence. He had to repair his damaged Qi Sea within a day. Otherwise, he would not be Mo Han's opponent in tomorrow's deathmatch.
It was because of the large number of Spirit Stones that Fang Chen was so confident.
Crash!
In the courtyard, Fang Chen sat cross-legged. He chose to eat the top-grade Origin Level elixir first. He grabbed a handful and swallowed it directly, then began to digest the elixir.
Hiss! Hiss!
When the elixir was completely digested, Fang Chen found that his damaged Qi Sea seemed to be better, but it did not reach Fang Chen's expectations.
Next, when Fang Chen swallowed all one hundred top-grade Origin Level elixirs, his damaged Qi Sea was finally repaired by ten percent.
"Low-Level Spirit Level Elixir."
Fang Chen whispered and swallowed one of the low-level Spirit Level Elixirs. Suddenly, Fang Chen felt a wave of heat surrounding his Qi Sea.
"This is worthy of being a low-level Spirit Level Elixir. It is much stronger than the top-grade Origin Level Elixir."
