During this time, Tantai Qiuyue spent every day with Fang Han, practicing martial arts together and fighting side by side.
As they spent more time together, she increasingly felt that Fang Han was the most perfect man in her mind, possessing extraordinary strength and unique charm.
However, her relationship with Fang Han was only that of friends and confidants, or rather, a mentor-student relationship, and there was no romantic involvement between them.
They were together every day, but neither of them ever mentioned becoming Daoist partners.
"Brother Xiang, now I'm worried about the beast tide and also about that Yin-Yang Tree. It hasn't been blooming for long. If it withers and dies because of this strange event in Yin-Yang Mountain, that would be a huge loss."
Seeing that Tantai Qiuyue was blushing, Fang Han cleverly changed the subject to avoid embarrassing her, and said with a worried expression.
"You previously set up the Yin-Yang Array, and with its protection, the Yin-Yang Tree should be fine for the time being. However, this is only a temporary measure. Otherwise, you would have to accelerate the ripening of a batch of Yin-Yang Fruits, or even find a way to transplant the Yin-Yang Tree."
After a moment of contemplation, Xiang Wantang spoke slowly.
"I can only ripen one Yin-Yang Fruit a day at most, and with the monsters rampant and the situation urgent, I simply don't have enough time to do this. As for transplanting the Yin-Yang Tree, that's even more difficult; I need to break through to the Divine Sense Realm. Only when I reach the Divine Sense Realm will I have enough ability to complete the transplanting task."
Fang Han shook his head helplessly and said.
His Azure Dragon Ring is not just an ordinary storage magic item; in fact, it is a mysterious little world.
In this small world, there is a flowing spring with abundant spiritual energy, making it perfect for planting all kinds of spiritual creatures.
If his cultivation reaches the Divine Sense Realm, he can open the small world inside and transplant the Yin-Yang Tree into it, providing it with a safe and suitable growing environment.
Otherwise, in this vast world, there is simply no suitable place to transplant the Yin-Yang Tree. If the Yin-Yang Tree has any problems, it will be a huge loss.
“Brother Fang, you are only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, but why do I, at the Spirit Embryo Realm, feel that I am no match for you?”
Xiang Wantang looked at Fang Han with amazement and doubt in her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh.
...
While Xiang Wantang was looking for Fang Han, Champion Marquis Li Hong, Wu Yi, and Yang Xiao were also discussing something in a secret place.
Yang Xiao broke the silence first, his brows furrowed, his eyes revealing anxiety and resentment. He spoke directly to Marquis Li Hong, saying, "My lord, look at the situation these past few days. The demonic beasts within the city have been almost completely wiped out thanks to the valiant efforts of Fang Han and his men. And in the suburbs, the number of demonic beasts they've killed is more than ten times that of our Demon Suppression Army. Our Demon Suppression Army has been practically invisible in this demon-suppression war, like a forgotten shadow in a corner. This can't go on; we must quickly find a way to reverse this extremely unfavorable situation."
Wu Yi nodded slightly, his eyes full of agreement, and quietly waited for the Marquis of Champion's response.
As soon as Yang Xiao finished speaking, Marquis Li Hong sighed, a hint of regret and resentment flashing in his eyes. He slowly said, "Brother Yang Xiao, you're right. I came to Tianyi City with great ambitions, hoping to exterminate the demonic beasts and achieve great feats, thus being crowned a king and bringing glory to my ancestors. But now it seems the situation is extremely unfavorable for us. If I don't make any changes and continue to follow the old ways, I'm afraid that the glory of being crowned a king will be snatched away by that brat Fang Han."
"I've sent people to investigate the source of this monster uprising; it's in Yin Yang Mountain. That's the monsters' stronghold, their lair. Why don't we just storm Yin Yang Mountain, destroy their lair, and leave these monsters leaderless, causing them to completely collapse? That way, the credit for wiping out the monsters will still go to us. Then, Fang Han and Tantai Qiuyue will have come up empty-handed, all their efforts will have been in vain."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yi quickly chimed in, "What you say is absolutely right, Lord Marquis. Just think, that kid Fang Han might actually be made a king based on his merits in this demon-slaying mission. Once he's made a king, he'll soar to great heights, and you, Lord Marquis, will fall behind in this competition. It will be extremely difficult for you to surpass him in the future."
After a moment of contemplation, Marquis Li Hong, the champion, suddenly stood up and said, "Alright! Then we'll act tonight, with the entire army launching an attack straight to the core area of Yin Yang Mountain. These past few days, our Demon Suppression Army has killed quite a few lord-level demonic beasts, and Fang Han's side has also achieved remarkable results. As a result, after these two rounds of attacks, the number of demonic beasts in Yin Yang Mountain may not be much, and the powerful ones may be even fewer. If we attack now, we might be able to wipe out the demonic beasts' lair in one fell swoop without expending much effort, and seize the credit for the demon-slaying."
Without hesitation, Champion Marquis Li Hong acted swiftly and decisively, quickly gathering about a thousand Demon-Suppressing Army soldiers who marched in a mighty procession toward Yin-Yang Mountain.
However, the champion, Li Hong, never expected that tonight he would be trapped in a desperate situation, a desperate situation that he would deeply regret and find difficult to escape.
The Marquis of Champion had once ventured into the mysterious and unpredictable Yin-Yang Mountain, but at that time, he merely lingered on the outskirts and never had the courage to venture into its perilous heartland.
After all, Yin Yang Mountain is an ominous mountain, teeming with hidden dangers and fraught with peril, and only the bravest dare to venture there.
But things are different now. This time, he is leading a thousand elite demon-suppressing soldiers, and with Yang Xiao and Wu Yi, his two capable assistants, by his side, he naturally feels more confident.
