Shen Wanjing nodded, "The person is indeed alive."
Yang Fei imdiately breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the person is alive, it’s good.
He had already lost his close friend Ukawa Taro. Sun Xingyu and Li Xuanyu were the only two friends left from his forr Madman Organization, and now Li Xuanyu was hanging by a thread. If Sun Xingyu were to die too, he would be utterly devastated.
But soon, Yang Fei sensed sothing was not quite right.
Why did Shen Wanjing have that odd tone of voice?
’The person is indeed alive.’
Between the lines, could it be that sothing happened to Sun Xingyu?
He quickly asked, "Senior Brother Shen, please stop beating around the bush. What exactly happened to my friend?"
Shen Wanjing said in an odd tone, "He was taken by Xihua Fairy."
Yang Fei was stunned. Xihua Fairy?
This was the first ti he heard that na, but from the tone Shen Wanjing used, it seed that this Xihua Fairy was very powerful.
"Is this Xihua Fairy an evil cultivator? Did my friend suffer a lot of tornt at her hands?" Yang Fei asked.
Shen Wanjing nodded, "Sort of. Any man caught by Xihua Fairy... usually suffers a lot."
Yang Fei’s heart tightened, and he anxiously asked, "Senior Brother Shen, where is Xihua Fairy?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Wanjing reminded him, "Yang Fei, I know you are very worried about your friend, but Xihua Fairy is not soone you can deal with."
Yang Fei asked, "What is her realm?"
Shen Wanjing replied, "Late-stage Nascent Soul."
Yang Fei heaved a sigh of relief, "Just late-stage Nascent Soul, that’s okay."
Shen Wanjing’s face took on a strange expression as he said, "Do you think having Li Shuya by your side ans handling a late-stage Nascent Soul expert is no problem?"
Yang Fei nodded, "Yes, why not?"
Before Shen Wanjing could speak, Li Shuya’s voice ca from behind, "Kid, I’ve only promised to ensure your safety from the Southern South Domain to the Shang Qing Sect and now we’re returning. I’ve fulfilled my promise. If you want to seek Xihua Fairy, that’s your affair, not mine."
Yang Fei turned his head to see Li Shuya, who seed to have erged from the room and was walking over.
He was puzzled and curiously stared at Li Shuya, "You, a Divinity Transformation Realm master, are afraid of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Li Shuya snorted, "Kid, provocations like that are useless against . In any case, I’ve done what I promised you, and you should honor your commitnt. My sect has many matters that require my attention, and I don’t have ti to ss around with you anymore."
Seeing Li Shuya’s clear intention to part ways imdiately, Yang Fei grew even more curious.
He implored, "Senior has indeed fulfilled the duty of protecting . Rest assured, I won’t back out on the paynt I promised, but if senior is willing, there’s still more to earn."
Li Shuya’s eyes flickered, but the light quickly dimd as he shook his head, "I don’t want to bring this trouble on myself."
This made Yang Fei even more curious. He couldn’t help but ask Shen Wanjing, "Senior Brother Shen, who exactly is this Xihua Fairy?"
Shen Wanjing replied, "A very terrifying woman. In the Southern Domain Cultivation World, no one wants to provoke her."
Yang Fei was a little bewildered.
After all, Shen Wanjing was a Half Step Unity Realm master, and Li Shuya was a late-stage peak Divinity Transformation Realm expert.
If she were a Peak of Divinity Transformation Realm master, Yang Fei could understand. After all, any Divinity Transformation Realm master is hard to deal with. Although Shen Wanjing and Li Shuya are strong, getting into a life-and-death conflict with soone of a similar realm is indeed worrying. Even if they are not afraid for themselves, their friends and family could be endangered.
Yet Xihua Fairy was only a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, far below Shen Wanjing and Li Shuya. If the two were willing to intervene, Xihua Fairy would have to show them face, no matter what.
So why do Shen Wanjing and Li Shuya both seem unwilling to provoke, even slightly afraid of her?
"Kid, where’s what you promised ?" Li Shuya asked.
Yang Fei looked at him, seeing Li Shuya was ready to leave and quickly said, "Senior..."
Li Shuya waved his hand, "If it were sothing else, I might promise, but not this matter; you’ll need soone else. I don’t want this trouble."
Yang Fei grew even more puzzled but, seeing Li Shuya so intent on settling their account, he didn’t say more and directly took out a large bottle of Genetic Liquid dicine for him.
Li Shuya’s eyes shone brightly, quickly stowing away the bottle as though afraid Shen Wanjing would snatch it away.
Shen Wanjing’s eyelid twitched slightly.
For Li Shuya, the Sect Master of the Fla Moon Sect, a late-stage peak Divinity Transformation master, to willingly escort Yang Fei from the Southern South Domain to the Shang Qing Sect secretly, and even step up when Wang Yuanxiao and his wife attacked Yang Fei, Shen Wanjing had long suspected it was driven by so promised benefit from Yang Fei in the form of Genetic Liquid dicine.
He didn’t expect Yang Fei to provide so much.
This kid is truly generous.
"Kid, although this is the reward we agreed upon, since you are so forthcoming, I, Li Shuya, won’t be stingy. Here’s a ’Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Talisman’ for you; it might save your life in a crucial mont." Li Shuya casually tossed a talisman to Yang Fei.
Yang Fei hurriedly reached out to catch it.
Shen Wanjing was slightly moved, impressed, "Mr. Li is indeed generous. The ’Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Talisman’ is a top-grade talisman of divine quality; its power is so strong that even early-stage Divinity Transformation won’t dare face it head-on, and a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator may perish if they’re not careful. Such a treasure, I didn’t expect Mr. Li to give it away."
Only then did Yang Fei realize the value of this talisman. He quickly placed it into his storage bag and gratefully cupped his hands towards Li Shuya, "Thank you, Senior Li, for this gift. Yang Fei will rember this kindness."
Li Shuya intended to ease past grievances with Yang Fei and seeing him accept the ’Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Talisman,’ he cupped his hands towards Shen Wanjing, "Master Shen, I have been away from the sect for many days, so I will take my leave now."
Seeing his determination to leave, Shen Wanjing did not attempt to persuade him, and he returned the gesture, "Until we et again."
"Farewell!"
Li Shuya disappeared with a flash from the massive Spirit Ship.
Yang Fei felt a sense of loss and sighed softly.
Shen Wanjing laughed heartily, "What, you wished such a powerful master would stay by your side to protect you all the ti?"
Yang Fei smiled awkwardly, "I’d like that, but how could it be possible."
Shen Wanjing nodded, "To navigate the Cultivation World and ensure your absolute safety, having personal strength is most reliable. Besides that, fa and backing are critical, too. You’re the closed-door disciple of Master Wan, part of the Inner Lineage of the Shang Qing Sect, and also my friend. As long as you can tily declare these titles, you can secure your safety to so extent in the Nancheng Territory."
Yang Fei nodded, valuing his safety but not overly worried.
With the Extre Fire Demon Pearl as his trump card, unless confronted face-to-face by a Divinity Transformation Realm master, he was confident of escaping and protecting himself.
"Senior Brother Shen, can you tell more about this Xihua Fairy?"
