Chapter 1065: You Must Help Me!
Chapter 1065 of "Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor" begins unfolding events: All this time, no matter what anyone said, Zhuge Lian refused to believe that her... Continue reading!
All this time, no matter what anyone said, Zhuge Lian refused to believe that her father had passed away.But now, Fang Baiâs words struck her like a heavy hammer, shattering the belief Zhuge Lian had always held dear and delivering a crushing blow that made her collapse and weep uncontrollably.
The identities of Zhuge Lianâs parents were mysterious; aside from Zhuge Lian and the Xuannv Sect Master, no one knew their names. Yet Fang Bai could not only name them, but also describe Zhuge Dingtianâs appearance, which closely matched the description Zhuge Lian had heard from her mother during her childhood, so Zhuge Lian deeply trusted what Fang Bai said.
Upon learning of her fatherâs death, Zhuge Lian was heartbroken, burying her head and sobbing.
Watching Zhuge Lianâs shoulders heave continuously and listening to her heartbreaking cries, Fang Bai did not step forward to console her, letting her vent her grief.
Only when Zhuge Lianâs crying had subsided a bit did Fang Bai let out a soft sigh and slowly said, "Do you know what your fatherâs greatest wish was?"
"What?"
Zhuge Lian stopped crying instantly, her eyes teary as she looked at Fang Bai and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
Fang Bai seriously said, "He hoped that his wife and child would not sorrow over his death but would live strong, happy, and fortunate lives. Otherwise, he could not rest in peace even in death. So..."
"I understand!"
Zhuge Lian suddenly stood up, vigorously wiped the tears from her face, sniffled, and said, "From now on, I wonât cry anymore! Once I find my mother, I will persuade her not to be sad too. We both will live well, so even though father has left us, he can rest in peace."
"Thatâs good to hear."
Fang Bai also stood up, smiling at Zhuge Lian and said, "I hope you find your mother soon, and you both can reunite."
He paused for a moment, then added, "If thereâs anything you need help with, just tell me directly; no need to be polite."
Zhuge Lian turned to the side and scrutinized Fang Bai carefully. She felt that this young Fang Bai, with his sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, and rosy lips, looked much more pleasing than the rough middle-aged man she had first met.
"Fang Bai, are you a Vast Level Martial Artist? I remember that Bitao Martial Academy is just a fourth-rate small sect. How could they have an incredible disciple like you?"
Zhuge Lian asked, batting her eyes. From the first moment she saw Fang Bai, she was unable to sense any Martial Artist Aura from him and knew that this man, who was only a few years older than herself, was far stronger than her, at least a Vast Level Martial Artist.
But, with a sect like Bitao Martial Academy that lacked both cultivation resources and powerful Martial Arts Techniques, how could it be possible to train a Vast Level Martial Artist?
Therefore, despite everything, Zhuge Lian still harbored some doubts about whether Fang Bai was really a disciple of the Bitao Martial Academy.
Fang Bai said with a smile, "As I mentioned earlier, I come from the Secular World and donât know much about this world, which is why I joined the Bitao Martial Academy. Firstly, to look out for two friends there, and secondly, to learn more about this world more quickly and comprehensively. At Bitao Martial Academy, I constantly suppressed my power; otherwise, I definitely couldnât have stayed..."
Fang Bai then relayed how he had come to attend the Sect Conference with the disciples of Bitao Martial Academy and concluded, "After altering my appearance, I worked in the Martial Artists Trading Market in Purple Flame City, refining pills and artifacts for others, purely to earn some cultivation resources. I didnât want anyone to discover my true identity. So, Xiao Lian, I hope you can keep this secret for me. Can you do that?"
"Yes!"
Zhuge Lian nodded vigorously, her face serious as she said, "Fang Bai, the fact that youâve confided your secret to me shows how much you trust me. Rest assured, I will keep it completely confidential, and I wonât tell anyone... including my fellow sect members!"
Then, with a tone full of admiration, she added, "So it turns out you really are a Vast Level Expert! Youâre only a few years older than me; how did you become so powerful? And here you are, a Vast Level Expert resigning yourself to being a disciple in a fourth-tier Sect; you really keep a low profile! What kind of expressions would your sect members have if they knew your true strength?"
Fang Bai smiled faintly and replied, "They might be quite surprised!"
However, he thought to himself that when the disciples of Bitao Martial Academy eventually discovered his great strength, they would surely be utterly dumbfounded and astounded, and even the higher-ups of the Academy, including Sect Master Ren Jingbo, would seem like the younger generation before him.
Imagining the solemn and respectful expressions of the Bitao Martial Academyâs high-ranking officials as they bowed to him filled Fang Bai with a sense of melancholy.
Because Fang Bai knew that the day his identity was revealed would be the day he would leave Bitao Martial Academy.
After all, one main reason Fang Bai had initially joined Bitao Martial Academy was to support Liu Qingqing and Liu Liehu. Even if his real strength wasnât exposed, he planned to leave once the siblingsâ abilities improved to the point where they could protect themselves. He would then travel the True Martial Realm, seeking challenges and fortune and searching for his lost relatives and friends.
Fang Bai, who in a past life had been a pinnacle Immortal Emperor in the Immortal Realm, was now reincarnated with a firm resolve to return to the Immortal Realm and clear his previous disgrace. No one could stop him, nor would he allow himself to be confined by a mere fourth-tier sect in one of the three thousand Minor Worlds.
Even if it were solely to enhance his personal strength, Fang Bai couldnât possibly stay at Bitao Martial Academy for long; he was bound to leave sooner or later.
Moreover, once Fang Bai revealed his true strength, his status in Bitao Martial Academy would inevitably be extraordinary, leaving figures like Ren Jingbo and other high-ranking martial artists unsure how to behave around him.
Thus, leaving Bitao Martial Academy was a very wise and correct decision.
"Fang Bai... oh right, youâre a few years older than me; I should call you Brother Fang!" Follow current É´á´á´ á´Ęs on É´ová´l_Firá´.É´et
Zhuge Lian suddenly remembered something, grabbed Fang Baiâs sleeve, and said loudly, "Brother Fang, thereâs a favor I must ask of you! If you donât help me, Iâll be really miserable!"
After finishing her speech, she realized that grabbing Fang Baiâs sleeve was quite inappropriate and quickly let go.
Fang Bai, however, remained calm and smiled at Zhuge Lian, saying, "Youâre really not shy about asking for help so soon... Tell me, what do you want me to do? Iâm no specialist in grandiose deeds, but Iâm quite skilled in things like petty theft, murder and arson!"
Zhuge Lian was amused by Fang Baiâs words and chuckled, but then her expression turned worried as she sighed, "Our Xuannv Sect and the Purple Flame Sect have a tradition of intermarriage. Over thousands of years, countless female disciples from our sect have married male disciples from theirs, which has brought our sects closer..."
"I heard from the Sect Master that thereâs a Male Direct Disciple in Purple Flame City who really likes me; he specifically asked to marry me... Pah, he hasnât even met me and he says he likes me? Thatâs clearly nonsense! But now Iâve come to visit the Purple Flame Sect with other disciples of Xuannv Sect, and out of politeness and respect, I still have to meet this Direct Disciple..."
