As for him, it was different. At this moment, the True Fire within his Qi Sea far surpassed his peers. If he were to clash with Dong Jinzi a few more times, allowing the True Fire to grow a bit stronger, he estimated that in as little as one year, or as much as three to four years, he could fully burn through all the acupoints.
Meanwhile, in a valley within Qingcun Mountain, the clansmen brought along by Shi Yifan and Yan Yuqin were locked in incessant bickering. Pan Yang sat silently on the side, his gaze flickering between the assembled group, secretly smirking to himself.
Shi Yifan and Yan Yuqin, in their haste to vie for the Ganoderma Ancestor's remnants on that day, had refrained from bringing their servants and clansmen along to keep the matter discreet.
After waiting for two or three days without seeing the pair return, the group knew something was amiss and sent people to search for them. In the end, all they recovered were some tattered garments.
