Kaiyang City could only be considered the smallest city in the Five Elements Province. The combat power of the warriors was on the low side. Moreover, the currency used in these places was still Upper Tier Spirit Stones.
Novels
If it was a slightly larger city, they would basically use Upper Tier Spirit Stones.
However, for Fang Chen, problems that could be solved with Spirit Stones were not a problem.
He had a lot of Spirit Stones. Even the wealth of the Li Family could not compare to him. This was his foundation.
Therefore, Fang Chen was very nervous when he found out that he had lost his interspatial ring. Fortunately, his interspatial ring had been found.
After returning from Guest Li's place, Fang Chen began to recover his internal organs.
Although his injuries were almost healed, his strength had not fully recovered because of the damage to his internal organs.
In the huge Five Elements Province, there were many strong people. He had to recover his strength as quickly as possible.
Fang Chen sat cross-legged. In front of him were a large number of medicinal herbs. The most precious ones were the Heart Nourishing Grass, the Organ Refining Grass, and the Snow Lotus Grass.
These three herbs could not be bought in the Southern Mountain Land. Even if they could be bought, they would be sold for a sky-high price.
The Heart Nourishing Grass mainly nourished the heart. The Organ Refining Grass could restore the internal organs. As for the Snow Lotus Grass, it could be used to supplement other herbs and strengthen their medicinal power.
It was already late at night. Fang Chen began to swallow the medicinal herbs.
Fang Chen used six hours to finish the medicinal herbs that were worth a million Upper Tier Spirit Stones.
At this moment, his body was filled with strong medicinal power. These medicinal powers gathered in his internal organs and began to restore them.
Because Fang Chen's Golden Heart had transformed, its self-healing ability had become stronger. Therefore, after swallowing the medicinal herbs, his internal organs recovered very quickly.
Time passed by slowly. Fang Chen's internal organs were recovering quickly. In Fang Chen's Sea of Qi, five streams of True Qi were constantly rotating.
This trip to the spatial turbulence was also a form of tempering for Fang Chen.
Fang Chen had just returned from the gates of hell, and his golden heart had also undergone a transformation. It could be considered a blessing in disguise.
When the first glimmer of light appeared in the sky, the medicinal power in Fang Chen's body was finally completely absorbed. At this time, Fang Chen's internal organs were almost fully recovered.
Fang Chen slowly opened his eyes with a smile on his face.
Next, as long as he didn't get injured again, his internal organs would be completely healed in a few days.
His injuries were almost completely healed, and his mood was much better. At least he now had the strength to protect himself.
He couldn't say that he could defeat a martial artist with nine flashes of true qi, but there was no doubt that he could defeat a martial artist with eight flashes of true qi.
At this moment, a coquettish voice entered Fang Chen's ears. Fang Chen turned his head and saw that it was Li Xiaoke.
"Little Ke." Fang Chen smiled.
"Fang Chen, how are your injuries?" Li Xiaoke asked as she looked at Fang Chen.
Fang Chen nodded his head and said, "I'm almost fully recovered."
"Today is the day of the Kaiyang City Grand Competition. Do you want to go and take a look?" Li Xiaoke asked.
Fang Chen pondered for a moment before nodding his head. "Sure."
This was Fang Chen's first time in the Five-Elements State. If he wanted to integrate into the Five-Elements State as soon as possible, he had to understand the situation within the Five-Elements State.
Therefore, he would start from Kaiyang City.
"Let's go then," Li Xiaoke said.
Then, Li Xiaoke led Fang Chen out of her residence and appeared in a courtyard where the guards lived.
There were many guards in this courtyard. Some of them were strong, while others were weak. When they saw Li Xiaoke arrive, their eyes were filled with respect as they greeted her.
"Miss Li."
"How many times have I told you? Just call me Xiaoke," Li Xiaoke said.
"Miss Xiaoke, why are you here so early in the morning? Is there anything we can help you with?" someone asked.
Li Xiaoke pointed at Fang Chen and said, "He is a warrior that I recently rescued. Let him watch the Kaiyang City Grand Competition with all of you today."
Hearing Li Xiaoke's words, everyone noticed Fang Chen. Then, they said to Fang Chen, "Brother, all of us were rescued by Miss Xiaoke. In order to repay Miss Xiaoke for saving our lives, we decided to stay in the Li Family Mansion as guards."
Fang Chen heard this and nodded his head.
It seemed that Li Xiaoke had rescued quite a number of warriors.
After sending Fang Chen here, Li Xiaoke left. She was the leader of the younger generation of the Li Family. Naturally, she had to go with the higher-ups of the Li Family.
Kaiyang City, Central Square.
This was the largest square in Kaiyang City. It was also the location of the annual Kaiyang City Grand Competition.
In the Central Square, there was a huge martial arts arena. This arena was where the younger generation of the three big families sparred.
Around the Central Square, there were three big areas. These three big areas were the areas where the three big families were located.
Today was the annual Disciples' Grand Competition in Kaiyang City. Many warriors came to the Central Square early in the morning to witness the competition.
At eight in the morning, the Yang Family was the first to arrive.
The group led by the Yang Family Head slowly arrived. Countless martialists started shouting when they saw Yang Xiujian in the crowd.
"Yang Xiujian, it's Yang Xiujian."
"I heard that Yang Xiujian had a breakthrough not long ago. He almost stepped into the Spirit Vortex Realm. This time, he will definitely be first."
"Li Mingzhu of the Li Family is not to be underestimated. She might be a strong opponent of Yang Xiujian."
"Among the younger generation of Kaiyang City, no one has forced Yang Xiujian to draw his sword. I wonder if Li Mingzhu can do it this time."
After seeing Yang Xiujian, many warriors shouted.
Yang Xiujian was one of the top experts among the younger generation of Kaiyang City. He had condensed nine flashes of True Qi at a young age. He was seen as the most promising warrior to reach the Spirit Vortex Realm.
Yang Xiujian was a sword cultivator. His entire body emitted a terrifying sword intent.
Within Kaiyang City, when Yang Xiujian's name was mentioned, everyone's expression changed.
Yang Xiujian's name resounded throughout Kaiyang City.
Amidst the uproar, the Yang Family members sat in the Yang Family area.
At this moment, one of the three big families of Kaiyang City, the Li Family, also arrived.
The Li Family Patriarch was in the lead. The two goddesses, Li Mingzhu and Li Xiaoke, followed closely behind.
The moment the Li Family arrived, they caused a huge commotion in the Central Square. The crowd was not surprised by the strength of the younger generation of the Li Family, but by the goddesses, Li Mingzhu and Li Xiaoke.
Among the younger generation of Kaiyang City, the three goddesses were Li Mingzhu and Li Xiaoke from the Li Family, and Lu Lianxue from the Lu Family.
The three of them were devastatingly beautiful. Each of them had their own merits.
Even Yang Xiujian would be moved when he saw the three of them.
Although the Li Family was the weakest among the three big families, they had two goddesses who were highly praised.
Fang Chen stood at the back of the Li Family group. After feeling the warm atmosphere, he could not help but be speechless. It seemed that beauties were the most popular everywhere.
Li Mingzhu was still cold. Her entire body emitted a cold aura as she walked straight to the Li Family area.
Li Xiaoke, on the other hand, greeted the crowd with a smile.
"Li Mingzhu and Li Xiaoke from the Li Family are definitely devastatingly beautiful. One family actually produced two goddesses. It really makes people jealous."
"Yeah. Look at Kaiyang City. How many young talents are chasing after Li Mingzhu and Li Xiaoke?" The crowd in the Central Square sighed.
After the Li Family arrived, the Lu Family followed closely.
The Lu Family had two prides, Lu Feiwen and Lu Lianxue. Both of them were equally matched.
However, Lu Lianxue's popularity completely surpassed Lu Feiwen's.
Within Kaiyang City, whenever someone mentioned the Lu Family, they would be talking about Lu Lianxue. No one would talk about Lu Feiwen.
Lu Lianxue, one of the three goddesses of Kaiyang City.
Fang Chen followed the gaze and instantly saw Lu Lianxue in the crowd.
"She is indeed beautiful."
Fang Chen could not help but sigh. Lu Lianxue had a seductive aura in her bones that made people unable to stop looking at her.
Lu Lianxue wore a snow-white dress. On her charming face, there was a faint smile. Her beauty was different from Li Mingzhu's and Li Xiaoke's.
Li Mingzhu was cold, while Li Xiaoke was gentle.
Lu Lianxue, Fang Chen's evaluation of her was: seductive.
After Lu Lianxue arrived, everyone looked at her absent-mindedly and shouted her name one after another.
Lu Lianxue, on the other hand, smiled slightly and sat in the Lu Family area.
Fang Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Lianxue. He thought to himself, "This girl is very dangerous."
After the three major families arrived, the Grand Competition of Kaiyang City was about to begin.
The three family leaders stood up one after another. The first to speak was the Lu Family leader. "This year's Grand Competition of Kaiyang City will be the same as before. What do you think?"
"Agreed," the Yang Family leader said.
The Li Family leader also nodded and said, "Agreed."
"Then, the Grand Competition of Kaiyang City will now begin."
The three major families had held the Grand Competition for countless years. All the warriors knew the rules of the Grand Competition, so there was no need to say anything.
Moreover, there was no need for a referee. The three family leaders were the referees.
At the beginning of the Grand Competition, it was a battle between the weak young warriors. The top warriors of the younger generation did not care about this at all.
The final stage would be the most intense.
On the martial arts stage, the battles were very intense. One by one, the young warriors went up the stage to fight.
In the Yang Family area, Yang Feng kept staring at the goddesses Li Mingzhu and Li Xiaoke. His eyes were filled with greed.
He was fantasizing about how good it would be if he could get the two of them one day.
At this moment, his eyes inadvertently glanced at the back of the Li Family area. Suddenly, he saw a figure that he would never forget.
"It's him." Yang Feng instantly recognized Fang Chen.
"He looks exactly like the warrior who killed Yang Tian that day. So he's a disciple of the Li Family." When Yang Feng recognized Fang Chen, his heart was filled with anger.
Then, Yang Feng walked towards Yang Fang and told him everything about how Fang Chen killed Yang Feng.
Yang Fang was instantly enraged.
