Rainbow Robed Fairy would have been better off saying nothing. The moment she did, Nangong Wan regretted it even more. She had actually let herself be bewitched into believing the words of a cultivator from another sect who had only just advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

If Rainbow Robed Fairy found out, she would surely laugh at her.

"Nothing."

Nangong Wan lightly shook her head, with no intention of saying more. A flash of resentment rose in her beautiful eyes. She swore that once she found the chance, she would make Fang Yu pay.

But if Fang Yu had truly been thinking of her, wouldn't she be repaying kindness with enmity? That would not do.

For a time, Nangong Wan became tangled once more over whether she should take revenge on Fang Yu or thank him.

Thinking of this, Nangong Wan puffed out her cheeks and muttered indignantly, "Lecherous bastard," then closed her eyes to rest, no longer dwelling on it.

In any case, it was too late now. Regret was useless.

If she were still a Core Formation cultivator, she naturally would not have cared about Fang Yu's words. But now, she was only at the Qi Refinement Realm and had to be cautious in all things.

With that thought, her resentment toward Fang Yu lessened somewhat.

Seeing that Nangong Wan was unwilling to say more, Rainbow Robed Fairy lightly furrowed her willow brows and could not press her.

After all, although Nangong Wan was now merely a Qi Refinement disciple, she was still the disciple of the Moon-Covering Sect's Grand Elder. Rainbow Robed Fairy truly could not afford to offend her.

Moreover, the two had known each other for years and could be considered close friends. She would not say anything further, only considering how she should explain things after returning.

Most importantly, with this, Qiong Old Monster's hopes of victory were slim.

After all, without Nangong Wan entering the forbidden grounds to keep everyone in check, even if the others had something on them, it would be difficult for them to cooperate wholeheartedly.

Their status, aptitude, and cultivation were all outstanding. Within their sects, none of them yielded to another. Once they entered the forbidden grounds, let alone cooperate, it would already be fortunate if they did not turn on each other.

Thus, it would be difficult for Qiong Old Monster to win.

"Junior Sister, did that nephew Fang from Yellow Maple Valley recognize your identity? Is that why you cannot go in?"

After a long while, Rainbow Robed Fairy thought of a possibility and hurriedly asked.

"More or less."

At this, Nangong Wan slowly opened her now-calm bright eyes. She glanced at Fang Yu, who was likewise sitting with his eyes closed in Yellow Maple Valley's group, then nodded.

She could not possibly say that Fang Yu had frightened her off!

That would be far too humiliating!

"This... how is that possible? During the reincarnation period of Junior Sister's Plain Maiden Reincarnation Art, not even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator can see through it. And you are only at the Qi Refinement Realm yourself; otherwise, you could not enter the forbidden grounds at all."

Rainbow Robed Fairy's lovely face changed slightly. Even after hearing this, she still found it hard to believe as she transmitted her voice.

"Perhaps he possesses some special physique, or spirit eyes? In any case, his cultivation aptitude and spiritual root talent are indeed exceptional. His bones are clear and pure, not the slightest bit inferior to that heavenly spiritual root girl from the Yan Family in the sect. I even feel he surpasses her by three parts."

Though her cultivation had fallen to the Qi Refinement Realm, Nangong Wan had retained her divine sense and discerning eye. Otherwise, she would not have been able to control her natal magic treasure.

What she did not know was that Fang Yu had long taken Eclosion Sect's Foundation Establishment Pills, cultivated the three great inner sect arts, and benefited from the marrow-cleansing and meridian-reforming power of the mortal world's Foundation Establishment Pills. This had made his body and bones increasingly pure.

Of course, the main reason was that he had been outstanding to begin with. These things had merely added flowers to brocade.

"That is indeed possible. Although I did not inspect him closely, his bones and spiritual roots are truly extraordinary, far superior to ordinary thunder-attributed variant spiritual roots. I truly do not know how that Fat Lei got so lucky, taking in three thunder-attributed variant spiritual root disciples in one breath."

Rainbow Robed Fairy's voice was full of envy.

Three thunder-attributed variant spiritual root disciples meant that, in the future, at least one of them would likely form a Golden Core, advance to the Core Formation Realm, and inherit Lei Wanhe's legacy.

If they were luckier, all three might form cores!

"Given enough time, Yellow Maple Valley may even take the surname Lei."

Rainbow Robed Fairy spoke again, full of envy.

"If that is the case, then Senior Sister can simply take in a few more disciples as well. The sect has several variant spiritual root disciples too."

Seeing this, Nangong Wan smiled sweetly and suggested.

"Forget it. They already belong to someone. I will not compete with the senior sisters and senior brothers for them. Besides, I could not win even if I tried."

Rainbow Robed Fairy sighed softly.

"By the way, Senior Sister, do you think that nephew Fang from Yellow Maple Valley might truly be beneficial to you? With his spiritual root aptitude, forming a core should not be difficult given time. His looks are also among the very best. Among all the men of the Seven Sects, there should be none who can compare to him. If he succeeds in forming a core, then he and Senior Sister would..."

Suddenly, Rainbow Robed Fairy looked at Fang Yu, who was resting with his eyes closed. Her beautiful eyes blinked, and she teased with a meaningful smile.

Her words were not false. As the younger brother of Electric Mother Heavenly Lord Fang Qingxue, the son of Dragon Deepwater Province's governor, and the young master of the Fang Family, Fang Yu's looks naturally eclipsed those of the many male disciples in the Seven Sects.

Had he not kept such a low profile after joining Yellow Maple Valley, rarely appearing before others, no one knew how many romantic entanglements he would have already stirred up.

Before Rainbow Robed Fairy could finish speaking, Nangong Wan's rosy cheeks flushed crimson with a swish, so red they seemed ready to drip blood. She protested coyly in dissatisfaction.

"Junior Sister, do not talk nonsense! I have no intention of becoming Dao companions with anyone. Besides, if I were to become Dao companions with him, he would surely have to join the sect. How could Yellow Maple Valley possibly be willing to let him go? In the end, it would only leave us caught between a rock and a hard place."

After speaking, she even carefully glanced at Fang Yu, as though afraid he might have overheard.

"Hehe, not having such intentions now does not mean you will not have them later."

Seeing this, a teasing gleam appeared in Rainbow Robed Fairy's phoenix eyes as she said with a smile.

"Hmph. Junior Sister should think about how to explain things to Senior Brother Qiong if we lose the wager!"

Nangong Wan changed the subject.

If Qiong Old Monster lost his wager with Li Huayuan and the others, and lost the Formless Needle, the talisman treasure he had personally refined, then even though the two of them were Core Formation cultivators, they would have a bitter time ahead.

Nangong Wan would be somewhat better off. After all, she was the disciple of the Moon-Covering Sect's Grand Elder, so Qiong Old Monster would not dare go too far.

But Rainbow Robed Fairy might not be so fortunate. She would surely be extorted and toyed with.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Rainbow Robed Fairy's lovely face immediately fell, and she complained irritably.

"How did I forget about Senior Brother Qiong? Damn it, it is all that Yellow Maple Valley brat's fault. Of all the people he could provoke, he had to provoke Senior Sister, leaving Senior Sister unable to enter the forbidden grounds and help gather spirit herbs."

Nangong Wan rolled her eyes at Rainbow Robed Fairy and continued.

"There is no use blaming him now. Think about how to deal with Senior Brother Qiong instead! If he gets angry, even Master will have trouble saying anything."

"Oh? You are already worrying about him now? Are you afraid your little sister will retaliate against nephew Fang because of this?"

Rainbow Robed Fairy refused to be outdone and teased her.

"Hmph, I am not talking anymore. Go think of a solution yourself!"

At these words, Nangong Wan's cheeks reddened again. She gave a soft snort, closed her eyes once more to rest, and ignored Rainbow Robed Fairy.
