Chapter 968: Chapter 968: The First Personal Transmission Disciple

"It’s Senior Brother Nangong!"

When Huang Miao saw the disciple from Bitao Martial Academy at the forefront of the Cultivation Team, she exclaimed involuntarily, her face showing a mix of reverence.

"Senior Sister Huang, who is Senior Brother Nangong?"

Seeing Huang Miao so excited, Liu Qingqing couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Hou Ziping interjected eagerly, "Junior Sister Liu, Senior Brother Nangong’s full name is Nangong Jian. He is the foremost among the ten Personal Transmission Disciples of our Bitao Martial Academy and the strongest among the thousands of disciples in the academy. Not only is he valued by the higher echelons of the academy, but he is also an example for many disciples."

His voice trembled slightly, clearly very excited as well.

No wonder, for Inner Court disciples like Huang Miao and Hou Ziping, although they were esteemed in the eyes of menial servants and External Courtyard disciples, they were nothing compared to the Personal Transmission Disciples.

Between Inner Court disciples and Personal Transmission Disciples, there were Core Disciples and a difference of two smaller realms. If an Inner Court disciple had the backing of a Personal Transmission Disciple, then they could walk sideways within the Inner Court.

Personal Transmission Disciples normally followed the four Elders to cultivate, and it was very difficult for Inner Court disciples to even see them, let alone someone like Senior Brother Nangong, who was the leader of the Personal Transmission Disciples. It was both shocking and thrilling for people like Huang Miao to encounter him here, and they were uncontrollably excited.

Liu Qingqing simply responded, "Oh," showing no particular emotion since, in her heart, neither Senior Brother Nangong nor the leader of the Personal Transmission Disciples could compare to Brother Fang.

Liu Liehu felt the same.

"Should we go over and greet them?"

Hou Ziping, his eyes filled with eager anticipation, rubbed his hands together and asked as he looked over at Ouyang Jian.

Hou Ziping was being very pragmatic—if they could make acquaintances with Nangong Jian, no disciples would dare to bully them in the future at Bitao Martial Academy.

The moment Huang Miao saw Nangong Jian, her mind heated up, initially wanting to greet him, but after calming down, she decided against it.

Although Nangong Jian was a high and mighty Personal Transmission Disciple, the other disciples of Bitao Martial Academy didn’t think highly of him, saying he was too proud and had deep schemes. He didn’t regard even Core Disciples, let alone Inner Court disciples like herself, with any significance.

If they went over to greet him enthusiastically and he responded with cold disdain, ignoring them, it would be very embarrassing.

Moreover, Huang Miao was also worried—they had previously gathered a few high-grade Spiritual Medicines, and if Nangong Jian and his group saw them, there was no guarantee they wouldn’t forcibly take them for themselves.

"We are here on a mountain training expedition, and there’s competitive tension among each team, so it’s better not to rashly go over and greet them,"

Huang Miao whispered to Hou Ziping.

As soon as she finished speaking, her expression changed slightly, noticing that Ouyang Jian and his group were now walking along the riverbank towards them.

"Junior Brother Liu, hide those Spiritual Medicines. I’m afraid Senior Brother Nangong and his group are coming over to snatch them!"

Huang Miao urgently said to Liu Liehu.

Given Nangong Jian’s proud nature, there was no way he would come over to greet them, so their intention for coming here was clear.

Liu Liehu was responsible for guarding the few precious Spiritual Medicines their team had just harvested. Hearing the approach, he immediately tensed up, stuffed the Spiritual Medicines into his clothes, and then stood behind Fang Bai, feeling that only behind Fang Bai was truly safe.

Fang Bai’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression was indifferent as he watched Nangong Jian and others stride towards them. When his gaze fell on the female disciple behind Nangong Jian, a hint of chill flashed across his face.

That female disciple was none other than Gao Shuxian, with whom he had old grievances.

"Gao Shuxian, that woman, I didn’t expect she would team up with Senior Brother Nangong! This is trouble now!"

Hou Ziping also saw Gao Shuxian, and his face turned pale instantly.

Hou Ziping and Gao Shuxian had numerous conflicts. Not long ago, Gao Shuxian had incited the cousins Yang Lin and Yang Wei to challenge him and Fang Bai, but they were defeated by him and Fang Bai. He had thought that Gao Shuxian would be deterred and would not trouble them again, yet it was not long before she had hooked up with Nangong Jian.

If Gao Shuxian were to incite Nangong Jian to strike back at him and Fang Bai, the consequences would be severe.

Nangong Jian’s cultivation level was at Heaven Level Perfection, just one step away from stepping into the Desolate Level realm, a level that was not something their Inner Court disciples could contend with.

It’s no exaggeration to say that even if their team of five joined forces, managing to withstand ten moves under Nangong Jian would be considered lucky.

Liu Qingqing and Liu Liehu had joined the Bitao Martial Academy later and hadn’t seen Nangong Jian, but they knew what it meant to be the first in the rankings of Personal Transmission Disciples.

Although the siblings trusted Fang Bai to protect them, seeing the look of imminent danger on Huang Miao and Hou Ziping’s faces, they too were influenced and began to feel tense.

The pace of Nangong Jian and his group was very fast, and in a matter of a few moments, they had already approached within ten meters of Huang Miao and others. Simultaneously, waves of martial artists’ oppressive might surged towards them, making them feel tremendous pressure.

The team led by Nangong Jian could be said to be the strongest in terms of overall strength among all the teams that entered the mountains this time, comprising not only Nangong Jian, a Personal Transmission Disciple, but also two Core Disciples and seven Inner Court Disciples.

In Huang Miao’s view, even if Nangong Jian himself didn’t make a move, just the other nine people could easily handle their team.

Seeing Nangong Jian’s gaze continuously fixed on Liu Liehu, Huang Miao couldn’t help but feel despair, knowing they had indeed discovered the Spiritual Medicines Liu Liehu had hidden in his clothes.

"Senior Brother Hou, Junior Brother Fang, Junior Brother Liu, Junior Sister Liu, if Senior Brother Nangong wants our Spiritual Medicines, I think we might as well just give them to him. What do you think?"

Huang Miao whispered to the four, Fang Bai included.

She thought, since the Spiritual Medicines had been discovered, it was now impossible to keep them hidden. Rather than having them forcibly taken, it seemed better to voluntarily hand them over to avoid injuries during their confrontation.

Furthermore, exchanging the Spiritual Medicines for personal safety would give them a chance to cross the Nether River, and perhaps they could find other opportunities in the core area of the Bitao Mountain Range.

"No! These Spiritual Medicines were hard-earned by us; how can we just hand them over? Brother Fang, don’t you agree?"

Liu Liehu, seeing Nangong Jian and his people getting closer, was nervous, but he was unwilling to hand over the Spiritual Medicines.

Huang Miao sighed, "Junior Brother Liu, I understand how you feel, but when under someone else’s roof, you have to bow your head."

Fang Bai turned to Liu Liehu with a smile and said, "Liehu, you’re right, why should we hand over what we’ve worked so hard to obtain? Make sure the Spiritual Medicines are secure, and let’s see who can take them away!"
