The City Lord went to deal with the related matters while Fang Yuan and Li Tongzhou waited for a while, chatting with Vice City Lord Xu from time to time.

While chatting and laughing, the City Lord returned, followed by a few guards with large bags.

“Fang my friend, this is your challenge reward, do you want to count it?”

“How long will I need to count over 900,000?”

Fang Yuan accepted it with a smile. Now, he had enough confidence to bid for the Gold quality Gu worm in the auction.

“Fang my friend, in the future, Yan Shen Empire will update the information on the Prodigy Roll. Let me give you a reminder first. In the future, someone might personally challenge you. If you lose, as long as it is recorded by the Phantom Gu, the rankings on the Prodigy Roll will change accordingly.”

The City Lord suddenly said.

“I got it.”

Fang Yuan did not care about this, but it was just a little troublesome.

After bidding farewell to the City Lord, Fang Yuan and Li Tongzhou walked around Fanshu City towards evening, taking a leisurely stroll.

“Where are we going next?”

Li Tongzhou thought for a while. “I heard that the lake scenery in Fanshu City at night is quite beautiful, why don’t we go on the flower boat?”

The flower boat he was talking about was obviously not a boat filled with flowers.

It was the kind of place that carried singers, dancers, women.

Anyone who knew about it would know.

Fang Yuan directly gave him a blow to the head.

“Don’t think about women all day long. Even if you do, don’t drag me with you!”

Li Tongzhou rubbed his head with a sullen face. “Good things must be shared. I really heard that the flower boat in Fanshu City is one of the best in the Yan Shen Empire, but I haven’t had the chance to experience it. I want to go with you to see it.”

Fang Yuan said snappily, “I really suspect that your dirty brain will make you stuck at the Foundation Establishment Stage for the rest of your life!”

“How is that possible! I’ve already advanced to the sixth layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage in two months! I’ve worked hard too!”

“You relied on taking medicine. Don’t think that I can’t see it.”

“Damn! Senior, how did you see it! I’ve never told anyone!”

“I don’t know. I was just talking nonsense. I didn’t expect you to admit it yourself.”

“…”

The two of them walked past the corner of the street noisily and bumped into a person.

“It’s you?”

Hearing this familiar voice, Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes.

“Oh, it’s Senior Zhang. Long time no see.”

The person who came was Zhang Wenbin.

He didn’t expect to bump into him on the street.

Since the last time they met, his face looked much gloomier. He was full of hostility, and his temperament had changed.

“It’s been a long time indeed.”

Zhang Wenbin sneered. “One month is almost up. Are you ready to wash your neck and wait for death?”

“Why wait until it’s time? Let’s do it now.”

Fang Yuan’s figure suddenly moved.

Zhang Wenbin casually raised his hand and grabbed his fist. A hint of ridicule appeared on his face. “What? You dare to fight with such little strength?”

Fang Yuan only smiled and did not say anything.

Li Tongzhou pointed at his lower body and kindly reminded him.

“Senior Zhang, your pants fell…”

Zhang Wenbin’s expression stiffened, and a cold feeling assaulted him. He lowered his head and saw his little brother exposed.

The passersby looked at him strangely.

Zhang Wenbin shook off Fang Yuan’s hand and hurriedly put on his pants, his eyes bursting with anger. “Fang Yuan, you are courting death!”

He waved his palm and a strange looking Gu worm fell into his hand. Then, limbs grew out and formed a blood and flesh blade that slashed towards Fang Yuan’s throat.

Fang Yuan’s pupils constricted.

This Gu worm…

He subconsciously held the worm rod in his hand to block.

Clang!

The sound of metal colliding rang out. The weapon made of flesh and blood was as hard as he had imagined.

Li Tongzhou saw that the two of them were really fighting and quickly went forward to persuade them, “Seniors, we are all from the same sect, it’s just a joke, don’t really fight.”

“Hehe.”

Zhang Wenbin suddenly calmed down and looked at Fang Yuan as if he was looking at a dead person.

He did not say anything and withdrew his Gu worm, brushing past the two of them.

“What’s wrong with this person?”

Li Tongzhou frowned deeply before looking at Fang Yuan, “But Senior, you really went too far this time.”

“I have a grudge against him.”

“Ah? A grudge, then it’s fine.”

Fang Yuan shook his head lightly. He had purposely provoked Zhang Wenbin and forced him to make a move, because he wanted to see how much he had improved over this period of time.

In reality, it was just like that. They were both at the fourth layer of the Enlightenment Realm.

But what surprised him was that Zhang Wenbin actually had a Gu worm that was extremely similar to the one in Bai Yao’s hand.

It only looked much weaker, as if it had just been nurtured not long ago.

But this did not mean anything.

After all, Zhang Wenbin had previously accepted a territory mission that was close to the Gu Demon Sect.

This Gu worm might have been seized from Zhang Wenbin’s opponent when he came into conflict with the disciples of the Gu Demon Sect during this period.

If he felt that it was powerful, he would use it.

Logically speaking, the possibility of Zhang Wenbin colluding with the enemy was not very high.

Otherwise, he would not have used this Gu in front of him.

However, Fang Yuan still subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but he could not pinpoint the exact feeling.

He could not figure it out, so he turned to ask, “Junior, what business did you guys leave the sect for this time?”

Li Tongzhou immediately shook his head. “I don’t know.”

“You don’t Know?” Fang Yuan looked at him suspiciously.

“I really don’t know.”

Li Tongzhou gave a wry smile. “I came out on my own accord this time. I purely wanted to come to Fanshu City to see this auction. It just so happened that they came here as well, so I followed along.”

Fang Yuan could not help but be speechless. Even his fellow disciple could not easily tell him about the sect’s mission. Now, the clues were gone.

“But don’t worry, Senior.” Li Tongzhou patted his chest. “I know where they live. Later, I’ll call a few other seniors out for a gathering and ask them over a drink.”

Fang Yuan’s eyes lit up and he patted his shoulder. “Good brother, I’m counting on you!”

Li Tongzhou was indeed good at socializing with people. Fang Yuan sighed at his own inferiority. It would be best to let this fellow handle such matters.

“Then regarding the money for the treat… Senior, will you…”

Li Tongzhou rubbed his fingers. The meaning in his eyes could not be clearer.

“Don’t worry!”

Fang Yuan naturally would not let him help and also waste money. He directly took out a few bottles of Gu wine from the Drunken Gu and handed them to him. “I’ll supply all the wine for you. It’s good to drink and also good for your body. You can have as much as you want!”

Li Tongzhou was dumbfounded. “Then… then what about primeval stones?”

“Isn’t the cost of treating the guests just the cost of the wine? I’ve already covered them for you, so why do you still need primeval stones?”

Wait a minute…

Fang Yuan’s expression changed. “You’re not thinking of inviting them onto the flower boat, are you?”

Li Tongzhou smiled embarrassedly. “Yes… I guess….”
