NOVPUBAfter lecturing him for half a day, Fu wore a pitiable expression on his face, yet he firmly refused to return to the Spirit Beast Bag.
Wang Ba hesitated, but in the end, he couldn’t bear to put it away.
For Spirit Beasts, the Spirit Beast Bag is much like a prison; it’s not beneficial for their growth.
Therefore, although Wang Ba didn’t really want to expose these Spirit Beasts to everyone, he still had no choice but to take turns letting them out.
"The Beast Department does have a special Spirit Beast Dungeon..."
Wang Ba fantasized for a moment, then honestly extinguished the thought.
After further bonding with the Spirit Beasts, Wang Ba watched the setting sun on the horizon and couldn’t help but look in the direction of Song State.
His eyes were filled with a hint of worry:
"It’s been almost ten days, why hasn’t he returned..."
...
Yan State.
As a result of a heaven-shocking explosion half a month ago, and soon after, the incident of an Evil God from the Kingdom of Immortals attacking a spiritual transformation Elder from the primitive Demonic Sect occurred.
The entire Yan State became enveloped in a tense atmosphere.
One could occasionally see groups of Cultivators’ figures patrolling back and forth in the sky and on the ground.
On this day.
Elder Qin Ya, who was rumored to have been seriously injured, stood respectfully with a group of Cultivators three thousand miles away from their base of operation.
Flags fluttered in the breeze, and the scene was majestic.
Shen Fu, clad in a black Shen Fu robe with a scaly sheen, stood not far behind Qin Ya, his face void of any emotion as he watched the distance.
A strange and sinister voice whispered in his Spiritual Government:
"Your cheap mentor is arriving, tsk tsk, can you guess why he’s coming?"
Hearing the sinister voice, Shen Fu felt a surge of irritation in his heart.
Of course, he was aware of the other’s purpose. On the surface, it was because of the Kingdom of Immortals, but he knew that half of the reason was because of himself.
Although he wanted to flee, he was also clear.
There was simply no way for him, at the late stage of Golden Core, to escape from his grasp.
Sensing his inner turmoil, the sinister voice seriously said:
"Don’t worry, although Liang Qiuyu is of a high realm, you have your advantages too. With a low realm, he’ll not guard against you too much, which gives you a chance. Once you reach Nascent Soul and have the chance to go to the North Sea for the ten-thousand-year Ice Spirit Marrow, I, once I regain my strength, have at least a 60% chance to help you escape his control."
Sixty percent?
Shen Fu snorted coldly in his heart.
"Sixty percent is not a small chance, that’s a Complete Immortal Ascension, even at my peak, I was only evenly matched with him... cough, just barely. But since I am merely a remnant soul now, helping you to this extent is already not easy... If anyone is to blame, blame yourself for making yourself so noticeable and catching Liang Qiuyu’s attention,"
Said the sinister voice with a cough.
Hearing this, Shen Fu could not resist cursing in his Spiritual Government:
"If it wasn’t for saving you, why the hell would I have shown off in the Demonic Sect!"
Listening to Shen Fu’s angry curse, the sinister voice seemed a bit guilty: "I didn’t really ask you to save me... Alright, let’s not curse anymore, if Qin Ya hears it by chance."
Shen Fu shouted angrily: "So what if he hears? I’ve had enough of this damn Demonic Sect already, better dead than here!"
"Just vent, no need to get so angry. I’m doing all I can..."
As the sinister voice was talking, it suddenly stopped.
Then, all of a sudden, it became quiet inside the Spiritual Government.
Shen Fu also instantly sensed the change outside, quickly reining in his emotions, his gaze returning to its indifferent state.
Soon, Qin Ya, the practitioner who attains spiritual transformation, spoke with a respectful tone:
"Elder Qin Ya of Yan State’s Guardian Force, warmly welcomes the great elder!"
Shen Fu hurriedly looked into the distance.
At the edge of the sky, he saw nothing.
He only heard a distant and mellow voice:
"Elder Qin is too polite, no need for such courtesies, ha ha, in our Saint Sect, there is no distinction of rank, we are all equals."
Upon hearing this voice, Shen Fu’s face immediately showed delight.
But in his heart, he sneered disbelievingly.
If anyone truly believed such nonsense, they’d be a fool.
If everyone really was equal, then why bother defining hierarchies like holy children and Servants?
The holy children enjoy countless resources within the Sect, while the Servant serves the holy children, losing even their personal freedom.
How is this equality for everyone?
Although that’s what he thought internally, Shen Fu immediately followed Qin Ya, shouting loudly:
"In the Saint Sect, there is no distinction of rank, we are all equals!"
After repeating the shout three times,
Shen Fu swept his Spiritual Sense over the following local Yan State Cultivators, indeed, some foolish ones showed expressions of envy and longing.
Clearly, they were dreaming of the day they could join a Sect like the primitive Demonic Sect.
He shook his head quietly
Before long.
A figure finally appeared on the horizon. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
When Shen Fu looked again, the figure had already arrived, standing with hands behind his back, suspended in midair in front of him, bending down to look.
The figure wore a tall crown and carried a wide belt, with a long beard flowing gracefully, dressed in a white scholar’s robe unlike most of the Cultivators in Fenglin Continent.
Though his face showed age, his bright eyes sparked with an amiable and benevolent aura.
Rather than resembling a great elder of the Demonic Sect, he looked more like an old sage of the imperial court.
"Great elder,"
Qin Ya once again gave a respectful salute.
Liang Qiuyu heard and gave a slight smile, immediately making many of the local Yan State Cultivators feel like they were basking in the spring breeze.
He softly yet clearly and robustly said, "I am already aware of the situation here, I will deal with it shortly."
Then his gaze shifted slightly, looking at Shen Fu, his face immediately showing a tender look as an elder towards his younger relative.
