Not long after, several exquisite side dishes and a steaming bowl of rice porridge were placed on the Side Hall's table.
The dishes are simple, but the meat and vegetables are well matched, and it's obvious that a lot of thought has been put into it.
Fang Han had the wound on his left arm bandaged. Fang Han was eating his rice slowly, while Qui Lan stood aside with his hands down.
There was only a faint sound of clinking bowls and chopsticks in the hall, and the atmosphere was peaceful.
After finishing his meal and rinsing his mouth, Fang Han raised his eyes to look at Qui Lan and asked, "Has anything happened in the sect during the time I left the sect?"
"Brother, there are indeed a few things worthy of attention in the sect recently. The biggest one is that True Disciple Chu Feng's practice of magic power was exposed and he was executed by the sect Law Enforcement Hall according to the law."
Qui Lan recalled briefly and then replied in a clear and logical manner.
"Lineage was also implicated because of this. All his property was inspected and all the main clan members were punished as mining slaves."
Fang Han heard this, his eyes did not waver, he just said softly "Hmm".
He has personally experienced the fate of Chu Feng and Lineage, and can even be said to be one of the promoters. He is naturally aware of this, and his level of understanding is far greater than that of Qui Lan.
He was waiting for Qui Lan's follow-up words.
When Qui Lan saw this, he knew that Fang Han was not surprised by what happened to Chu Feng, so he continued:
"One more thing, Wu Zheng Deacon of the Law Enforcement Hall successfully broke through to the Third Grade realm three days ago. In addition, with enough achievements accumulated over the years, the sect leader has personally ordered that he be promoted to sect Elder."
"Wu Zheng..."
Fang Han recited the name silently in his mind, his face still expressionless.
Although Elder has a respected status in the sect, as a disciple of True Disciple, especially as Prodigy Ranking, his potential influence and importance within the sect are not inferior to those of ordinary Elder.
Naturally, he would not be afraid of or deliberately fawn over a new Elder like an ordinary disciple, but he would not offend the other party without any reason and only cause trouble.
For him, this news is just for him to know.
"Besides, is there anything else?"
Fang Han asked again.
"Back to senior brother, except for these two incidents, there are no other major events happening in the sect."
Qui Lan thought about it carefully, then shook his head slightly.
"Well, I understand, you go down and rest."
Fang Han waved his hand.
"Yes, senior brother."
Qui Lan bowed and quietly exited Side Hall.
Fang Han stood up and did not go back to the bedroom directly, but walked towards Quiet Room.
The interior of Quiet Room Sandalwood Incense is curled up with simple furnishings. It is the place where he usually practices and meditates.
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, he took out a jade vase from his arms, poured out two longan-sized, bright-colored True Spirit Pill, and took it into his mouth.
Danyao melts in the mouth, and the pure and mild medicinal power spreads quickly.
He closed his eyes, <Mystic Wind Art> was running slowly, guiding the medicinal power to circulate along the meridians, recovering the Internal Qi consumed on the road and in the recent battle.
Time passes quietly in the silent practice.
More than two hours later, Fang Han slowly opened his eyes, and a ray of light flowed under his eyes, and then disappeared.
Not only did the consumed Internal Qi fully recover, but the fierce battle on the edge of life and death not long ago also greatly stimulated his own potential.
The speed of cultivation has temporarily increased, and the total amount of Internal Qi has increased significantly.
"In just a few days, we were ambushed twice!"
Fang Han did not get up immediately, but still sat quietly on the futon, recalling the experiences of the past few days in his mind.
First, he was ambushed by Yin Huang, and then he was ambushed by the scar-faced killer. In just a few days, he experienced two extremely dangerous fights.
It was extremely dangerous every time. If he hadn't been strong enough, he might have died long ago.
This feeling of walking on the tip of a knife can certainly greatly stimulate your potential and speed up your cultivation, but the risks involved are too great.
You can be lucky once, you can be lucky twice, but you may not be lucky every time.
"We must think of appropriate countermeasures!"
Fang Han is thinking in his heart.
In the final analysis, the danger this time was caused by not having enough trump cards.
In the past, he spent most of his time living within the sect and was safe.
In addition, there are obvious opponents like Chu Feng to deal with, so they choose to show off their talents and strength to gain resources and intimidate Xiao Xiao.
But things are very different now.
The biggest threat of Chu Feng has been eliminated, and in order to obtain the massive resources needed to unlock the higher level Talent Amplification, he will inevitably go out to look for Opportunity more often in the future.
Outside the sect, there is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and dangers abound. If you continue to expose all your trump cards to others like in the past, you will inevitably be plotted by someone with intentions and fall into a passive position.
"It is a safe move to hide part of your strength and use it as a trump card."
Fang Han A flash of understanding flashed in his eyes.
Today's situation is different from the past. We can no longer reveal our strength unreservedly. We need to hide part of our strength as a trump card.
Of course, this does not mean that you have to pretend to be mediocre, otherwise you will lose the attention of the sect, which will be detrimental to the acquisition of resources, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
He will still show enough talent and strength to maintain the reputation and status of Tianjiao True Disciple, but it will no longer be unreserved, but will be hidden.
This move seems to be different from the previous development strategy, but in fact the core is the same. It is all for better survival and improvement. It is just a necessary adjustment based on changes in the external environment.
Within the sect, you can show off appropriately to compete for resources; when you go out, you need to be cautious in your words and deeds, and hide your edge and guard your position.
With his mind set, Fang Han felt that his thoughts were clearer. He stood up and went to the bedroom.
In the morning, the sun shines through the gaps in the Quiet Room carved wooden window, casting mottled light and shadow on the blue brick floor.
Fang Han slowly withdraws his power, and the majestic Internal Qi surging around his body gradually subsides and returns to his whole body Acupoints.
A wisp of dark green and almost ink light flowed under his eyes, then disappeared immediately.
Fourth Grade's initial cultivation has been completely stable, and has even improved slightly.
After simply using the porridge and side dishes prepared by Maid Qui Lan, Fang Han put on a clean silver-patterned green robe.
Flowing Wind Sword was destroyed. He did not hang up his sword and walked straight out of the other courtyard towards the Law Enforcement Hall located on the mountainside.
Law Enforcement Hall The main hall is still solemn and solemn, and the air is filled with a faint Sandalwood Incense and an invisible pressure.
After the announcement, a disciple on duty respectfully led Fang Han to the Side Hall on one side.
In the hall, Zhou Jin Elder is sitting on a large rosewood chair.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his eyes and saw that it was Fang Han. A faint smile appeared on Gujing Muha's face.
"Master Nephew Fang, here he comes."
Zhou Jin Elder has a gentle voice, but it has a majestic tone.
"Disciple Fang Han, see Zhou Elder."
Fang Han took a few steps forward, bowed and saluted, his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing.
"No need to be polite, sit down."
Zhou Jin Elder waved his hand and motioned Fang Han to sit down on the pear wood chair at the bottom.
"You were ordered to investigate the magic power this time, and the subsequent inspection Chu Family was completed well. I will give you the reward right now."
As he said that, he took the simple "Transmission Jade Inkstone" on the desk and looked at Fang Han.
"Give me your True Transmission Token."
"Thank you Elder."
Fang Han took out the Identity Token, which was as warm as jade and engraved with the words "Azure Mystery" and a moire pattern, from his arms, and handed it over with both hands.
Zhou Jin Elder took the token and placed it in the groove in the center of the jade inkstone. His fingertips glowed with a faint light and he quickly touched several specific runes on the surface of the jade inkstone.
The jade inkstone made an imperceptible buzz, and the light on its surface flashed away.
"The mission reward has been added to your token. In addition, this mission is difficult and dangerous. You make a decision at the last moment to eradicate the evildoer. Remember Minor Merit."
Zhou Jin Elder handed the token back, his tone still calm, but there was a trace of imperceptible appreciation in his eyes.
Fang Han took the token and injected a wisp of Internal Qi into it.
The light on the token flashed slightly, showing a line of numbers - 60000.
There was a contribution value of 50,000 before, but now it is 60,000.
In other words, one mission actually resulted in a reward of 10,000 contribution points!
This was far more than what he had gained from completing ordinary tasks before.
Even though he had expected that the reward would be extremely generous, the actual amount still made his heart flutter.
Of course, he is probably the only one who can receive such a generous reward as the team leader.
Although Yun Qianyue, Li Feng and others who participated in the mission should be quite rich, there is no way they can be as numerous as him.
What made him even more happy was the "Minor Merit".
According to the sect's regulations, three Minor Merit can be combined into one Major Merit.
And one Major Merit means that he will be qualified to redeem the master-level skills collected by the sect!
That is the Opportunity that countless True Disciple disciples dream of, and it is related to the upper limit of the future martial arts path.
Although it will take some time to get three Minor Merit together, it is a solid step after all.
"Thank you Elder!"
Fang Han suppressed the turmoil in his heart, put the token away, and solemnly thanked him.
Zhou Jin Elder nodded slightly, looked at Fang Han for a moment, and asked.
"Master Nephew Fang, I heard that you are planning to go on a trip, how come you are back in just a few days?"
"Back to Elder, my disciple was ambushed by the Nether Pavilion True Disciple Yin Huang shortly after traveling."
Fang Han spoke in a calm tone about his experiences over the past few days.
"Oh? Yin Huang?"
Zhou Jin Elder raised his eyebrows slightly.
"In the friction and fighting between the disciples of the seven sects, as long as the line is not reached, the sect will generally not intervene. What will be the result of your fight with him?"
The sect does not want its disciples to become flowers in the greenhouse, so for conflicts between disciples, as long as they do not bully the minority, they will generally agree not to interfere and will not rise to a higher level.
"The disciple fought a fierce battle with him, but luckily he was not defeated. Yin Huang retreated."
Fang Han replied.
Zhou Jin Elder showed a little surprise on his face.
Regarding the ranking of Prodigy Ranking, there is a big gap between Fang Han and Yin Huang, but I didn't expect that Fang Han would win in the end.
Being able to defeat Yin Huang, who is ranked 82nd in Prodigy Ranking, shows that Fang Han's strength has exceeded the existing ranking of Prodigy Ranking.
"After being attacked by Yin Huang, the disciple knew that he had been targeted, so he decided to return to the sect, but when he was about to return to the sect, he was suddenly ambushed by another person."
Fang Han's tone was still calm, but his eyes were slightly cold.
"This man is a middle-aged man with a cultivation level of Fourth Grade Late Stage. He is good at concealed assassinations. The weapons he uses are highly poisonous and his attacks are ruthless, with the intention of killing him. Although the disciples killed him, they almost suffered disaster."
"What, someone at the level of a non-disciple actually attacks you?!"
Zhou Jin Elder sat upright suddenly, his eyes flashed with light, and a heavy pressure like a mountain spread out uncontrollably.
Although it was fleeting, it made the air in the Side Hall freeze.
