"Wang ng, you said you infiltrated Demon Blade City under the guise of an Elder from the Ghost Heart Sect, and that’s believable. But the Core Tower’s array technique was restored. Even a master at the Great Perfection stage would have been discovered. How did you get in?"
Zhao Xinglun asked.
"Little Fla. It’s good at breaking through array techniques. It seems like no array can affect it."
Wang ng pointed at Little Fla, who proudly shook the fla on its head.
Everyone still found it a bit hard to believe. A Five Elents Essence was certainly precious, but it wasn’t anything extraordinary to these masters at the Great Perfection stage. Besides, this Little Fla was still in its infancy.
The best explanation was no explanation at all. Wang ng directly took out Demon Blade City’s Energy Crystal Stone.
"This is the shrunken Crystal Stone."
The others might not have known its significance, but all the Sect Leaders present were stunned. Yang Jian couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitent.
"Sect Leader Xuee, you’re not playing fair! To think the Holy Hall was hiding such a talent without telling us!"
The other Sect Leaders’ weary faces also broke into smiles. Seeing this Energy Crystal Stone, they could finally rest easy. It seed Demon Blade City had truly retreated.
"Heh heh, Wang ng. No wonder Fan Hong praised you as soone rarely seen in the heavens and unique on earth. Good kid, you’ve got so skills!" Fan Ru, who had been observing from the side, finally spoke. It seed his trip had been more than worthwhile.
"Wang ng, this is Sect Leader Fan Ru of the Dharma Flower Sect from the Tide Small Thousand Realm. He is your friend Fan Hong’s master. We were fortunate to have Sect Leader Fan Ru’s assistance this ti."
"This junior, Wang ng, pays his respects to Sect Leader Fan. Fan Hong often speaks of you, Senior. I have long admired you."
"Haha, that kid has surely said plenty of bad things about . At the Cultivation Academy, I’ll have to ask you to look after him," Fan Ru said.
For Sect Leader Fan to be so courteous made the other Sect Leaders and high-level masters look at Wang ng in a new light. They all wondered where the Holy Hall had found such a miraculous figure they’d never even heard of before.
Wang ng scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "Actually, he’s the one who helps out more often."
Fan Ru laughed heartily, his impression of Wang ng improving even more. He was pretty sure he knew where all of Fan Hong’s Spirit Stones went, but as long as it contributed to Fan Hong’s growth, it was better than him wasting them on useless won.
"Wang ng, you’ve perford a heaven-sent service this ti. Tell us what reward you would like. Your master and the other Sect Leaders are all here. As long as you ask, we will all grant it."
Yang Jian spoke with a kind and benevolent expression, but his eyes were fixed on the Crystal Stone. It wasn’t for personal gain. This Crystal Stone had been bestowed by the Star Alliance when the city was built; it was, in a sense, the city’s heart. The energy consumption during this great battle had been significant. If they could obtain this Crystal Stone, it would not only cover their losses but leave them with a surplus. As the City Lord, how could Yang Jian not be delighted? But as a senior, how could he bring himself to ask for it? After all, it was soone else’s spoil of war.
Wang ng bowed deeply. "As a disciple of the Holy Hall, I am also a part of Snow Moon City. Without the Holy Hall, this disciple would still be muddling through the mortal world. Everything I’ve done is what I ought to do. This Crystal Stone was also obtained by a stroke of luck. It’s not appropriate for a disciple like to keep it. I will leave the decision to the Sect Leader."
’He had long known the importance of this Crystal Stone. It was more than he could ever use, its greatest function being food for Little Fla. Now, seeing how crucial it was, he realized it was safer to offer it up than to keep it. The reason he had brought out Little Fla was to show the Sect Leaders that it was his, and also to prevent others from getting any ideas.’
"Haha, Sect Leader Xuee, we’re all going to be so jealous of you!"
Xuee Zhongnan clearly had good relations with the others. Moreover, he had personally risked his life this ti, so everyone present owed him a favor. And it seed Fan Ru’s rescue was, to a certain extent, related to this disciple, Wang ng.
Zhao Xinglun, however, was getting a little anxious. ’That brat Zhao Guang is stirring up trouble in the Holy Hall. For the sake of the Zhao Family’s prosperity, I would have normally supported it. But now, that’s clearly out of the question. After this battle, Wang ng is now in a forbidden zone—untouchable. ssing with Thunderlight Hall at this mont would be crossing a line. Most importantly, I can’t tell if this kid is genuinely generous or just cunningly shrewd, pulling a move of retreating to advance and making all the Sect Leaders owe him a favor.’
The man had perford a heaven-sent service. Who would dare to cause trouble for his ho hall?
Just then, the disciples sent out to scout returned, confirming that the Demon Cultivator army had withdrawn. The entire city erupted in celebration. This was truly an unexpected victory.
"The Demon Cultivators have been defeated! Glory to Snow Moon!"
All the Holy Cultivation Disciples cheered to the heavens. Everyone knew that this was an absolutely devastating blow to Demon Blade City. Not only had their efforts co to nothing, but most importantly, they had lost their Energy Crystal Stone. It was certainly enough to give Zhang Mang a massive headache.
The Holy Cultivation Disciples of Snow Moon City all received a piece of news: the reason for their victory was that a miraculous disciple from the Holy Hall had launched a surprise attack on Demon Blade City, not only destroying the Core Tower but also seizing Demon Blade City’s core Crystal Stone, forcing them to retreat.
This person’s na was Wang ng.
"What? Wang ng?"
"What’s wrong, Xu Huang? You know him?" Having learned of the victory, a group of Saint Cultivators were drinking and celebrating heartily. They had all thought they wouldn’t make it through the day.
Xu Huang was now a master at the Fifty-third Layer. He was more mature, but with an air of dominance. Here, he had found a new life.
Only a very small number of Holy Hall Disciples were sent to the Cultivation Academy. Generally, those above the Thirtieth Layer were only sent to the Great Yuan Realm. The higher one’s Life Mark, the more set in their ways they beca, making it a waste to send them to the Cultivation Academy. But in the Slaughter Space, one could also grow through combat.
But Xu Huang had never imagined that this person would be Wang ng.
"Old Xu, that’s right! He’s a disciple from your Holy Hall, do you know him? That kid is fucking aweso!"
Xu Huang drained a pot of wine in one go and threw his head back to laugh. "Good. Good, good! Wang ng, you really didn’t disappoint !"
In the Holy Hall, there was only one person nad Wang ng. Back then, on a whim, he had been won over by the boy’s determination and had given him a chance. And today, he had done it!
At that mont, the door to the tavern opened.
"Junior Brother Wang, Xu Huang is right in here. If you need anything else, just find ."
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
"Don’t ntion it."
The Sect Leaders had their own celebration, which Wang ng was naturally expected to attend. But Wang ng’s thoughts turned to Xu Huang. Having co here, the first person he should have paid his respects to was Xu Huang.
The Saint Cultivators, who had been drinking rrily, gradually quieted down upon seeing this unfamiliar young man.
Wang ng spotted Xu Huang in the crowd at a glance. Elder Xu seed to have weathered a bit, but he looked even more imposing.
Wang ng walked up to Xu Huang and perford a grand salute, kneeling to the ground. Even when eting the Sect Leaders, he had rely bowed. But Xu Huang was different. In this world, his parents had given him life, Moo Shan had given him a new life, and it was Xu Huang who had given him the chance to realize his dream. Wang ng was a bit of a bad boy, but he never forgot to repay kindness with kindness, and enmity with enmity.
"Disciple Wang ng pays his respects to the Elder!"
Wang ng respectfully kowtowed three tis. Everyone was stunned. No one had expected that the young man before them was Wang ng, the one who had just perford such a great service. Right now, Wang ng should have been celebrating with the Sect Leaders! It was said that this kid was exceptionally talented and that even the Sect Leader of the Dharma Flower Sect had to give him so face. How could such a powerful figure...
Xu Huang hadn’t expected this either. When he had given Wang ng a chance back then, he had never imagined this day, nor had he thought that Wang ng would co to see him now.
Xu Huang let out a long sigh. "I, Xu Huang, have only done two right things in my entire life. One was coming to the Great Yuan Realm, and the other was bringing you to the Holy Hall. Hahaha, it was worth it! Get up, quick, and co celebrate with everyone!"
The Cultivation Realm had always valued ability. The current Wang ng was already an elite of the Cultivation Academy with a limitless future. He had also perford a great service and could speak on equal terms with the Sect Leaders. For soone like him, just sending word would have been considered giving a lot of face. Yet now, Wang ng had chosen to forsake the opportunity to celebrate with the Sect Leaders and had co to find Xu Huang instead. No wonder even a fierce warrior like Xu Huang, who disregarded life and death, was so moved.
The Saint Cultivators present all felt a surge of goodwill. They had survived because of this kid, and this kid was so likable. Who wouldn’t want to know soone like that?
"Younger Brother Xu, introduce him to everyone."
Xu Huang pulled Wang ng to his side. "This is Wang ng! The thing I’m most proud of in my entire life is bringing him to the Holy Hall!"
Everyone had seen what just happened. In truth, even though Wang ng had perford this great service, the city’s defense had relied on everyone fighting for their lives. When it ca to rit, they all had a share. But Wang ng was not arrogant about his achievents. This sense of loyalty and honor was what truly earned everyone’s admiration.
"Brothers! Sisters! Let’s toast this little brother! He gave up the chance to drink with the Sect Leaders to co find us, which ans he’s giving us face! So what do you say, are we downing this cup?"
DOWN IT!
Wang ng took the wine pot from Xu Huang. No nonsense. At a ti like this, as a man, there was only one thing to do: drink!
’This is the world I want.’ He knew that although this place was dangerous, Xu Huang was definitely happy here. One day, after leaving the Cultivation Academy, he too would co here to fight.
He was waiting for that day. He was willing to fight side-by-side with people like this!
This was a man’s world.
Xu Huang got drunk, and Wang ng got drunk too. A person does many things in their life, but there are always one or two that make them feel the value of their existence.
Little Fla got drunk too. To be precise, it was out after the first sip. After getting drunk, Little Fla ate three tables before passing out.
Wang ng stayed in Snow Moon City for three days. These were the happiest days he had spent since coming to the Great Yuan Realm. Being here, he sorely missed Yang Ying, Zhang Xiaopang, Hu Jing, and Suo Ming. ’The ceaseless fighting is worth it!’
Wang ng declined the kind offers from the Sect Leaders. He knew that letting the Sect Leaders owe a favor would be more beneficial to the Holy Hall, and he didn’t need any help himself.
「Demon Blade City.」
Zhang Mang was furious. He had ticulously planned for two years and had been on the verge of a complete victory, only for it all to fall apart at the last second. How could he not be enraged? It wasn’t just him; the other sect leaders felt the sa. Not only had they failed to conquer Snow Moon City, but their core Energy Crystal Stone had been stolen. The current Demon Blade City was like a beautiful woman stripped naked, in constant danger of being violated.
This kind of Crystal Stone was very troubleso to acquire. They either had to snatch one from another city or go to the Star Alliance, but the price for that would be incredibly heavy.
The matter was quickly investigated. It was the work of a disciple from the Ghost Heart Sect; a token from the Ghost Heart Sect was found at the scene.
