Chapter 429: Chapter 36: Strength_1

“Is this your home base in Yan State, junior fellow mate?”

Mid-air.

Wang Ba and Zhao Feng were looking down at Yong’an City below them.

Zhao Feng couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Wang Ba nodded slightly, his tone tinged with a hint of nostalgia:

“Yes, this place was originally just a gathering place for Rogue Cultivators. It was later turned into a city by the local Sects. I had to leave in a hurry, so I’m not sure if it has been destroyed by the three major Sects. Let’s go down and have a look.”

The two of them descended quickly.

To Wang Ba’s surprise, Yong’an City was deserted, with hardly any Rogue Cultivators in sight.

There were very few life auras when he spread his Spiritual Sense around.

In fact, it was even more deserted than when he was forcibly taken away by the three major Sects.

It appeared almost like a ghost town.

Wang Ba didn’t think too much of it and led Zhao Feng straight in front of his mansion.

To his surprise, the Formation outside his mansion was intact.

But the exterior was covered with all kinds of Talismans.

Wang Ba’s face darkened slightly, with a wave of his hand, his mana swept over, and all the Talismans were instantly cleaned up.

With a thought, the Formation opened up.

The lawn was completely empty. When Wang Ba and Bu Chan were forcibly taken away, Bu Chan had immediately taken all the Spirit Beasts and spirit field away.

However, there were still some precious items inside the mansion that they hadn’t taken with them.

The most precious ones were undoubtedly the Array Plate of the Teleportation Array and the Array Plate of the Class III Defense Array.

Wang Ba had no intention of staying here any longer and immediately collected them all.

“Who dares to tamper with the possessions of our Sect!”

Several angry shouts suddenly rang out from outside.

Wang Ba’s Spiritual Sense stirred.

At the gate, several Cultivators in Huifeng Valley robes were watching them with cold expressions, their bodies brimming with mana.

“Yours from Huifeng Valley?”

Wang Ba let out a faint chuckle.

Although he had a cooperative relationship with Huifeng Valley, it was mostly because of the overwhelming power of the Xuli Sect, and he had no choice but to cooperate.

In reality, his impressions of all three major Sects were not good.

His impression of the Xuli Sect was just exceptionally bad that’s all.

The Huifeng Valley Cultivators were not stupid, seeing the imposing aura on Wang Ba and Zhao Feng, they immediately retreated a few steps, then ran away as fast as they could.

Watching the Huifeng Valley Cultivators running away in panic, Zhao Feng looked at Wang Ba:

“Did you deliberately wait for these Sect’s people to come?”

Wang Ba nodded slightly.

How could these petty movements of the Qi Refining Cultivators hide anything from him?

It was just that he had deliberately not exposed them.

Seeing this, Zhao Feng knew that Wang Ba probably had a plan in mind, so he put his mind at ease.

As expected, not long after, his Spiritual Sense detected that the Qi Refining Stage Huifeng Valley Cultivators had hurriedly returned from the distance, riding on their flying Magic Tools. This time, they were accompanied by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

It was clearly the backup they had brought.

They hurriedly arrived, seemingly worried that Wang Ba would slip away. But seeing that Wang Ba and Zhao Feng had not left, they immediately excitedly shouted to the Foundation Establishment Cultivator:

“Elder Uncle! It’s them!”

“They’re the ones who stole our Sect’s possession!”

Unexpectedly, the moment the Foundation Establishment Cultivator saw Wang Ba, his eyes bulged out, showing a look of disbelief:

“Ma, Master Shen?!”

“Yo, You’re still alive?”

“No, aren’t you…”

He couldn’t finish his sentence.

Wang Ba was not interested in wasting time here, and immediately said:

“Whether it’s me or not, take me to Master Yan, and all will be clear.”

“Th, This…”

The Foundation Establishment Cultivator hesitated for a moment.

After quickly thinking it over, he bowed to Wang Ba, showing an apologetic smile.

He then sent out a Sound Transmission Talisman.

After doing this, his attitude became noticeably more polite:

“Master Shen, I am Zhang Yin. Will you and your friend please come with me?”

No matter whether the person before him was Shen Fu or not, he had to be careful about his attitude.

Wang Ba nodded, and along with Zhao Feng, followed along.

Looking down at the exceptionally deserted Yong’an City, Wang Ba suddenly thought of something and asked, puzzled:

“Wait, wasn’t Yong’an City jointly managed by your three major Sects? Why is it that only Huifeng Valley is here now?”

In response to Wang Ba’s question, Zhang Yin didn’t dare to hide anything:

“Replying to Master Shen, after our three Sects jointly captured the Zhenling Palace last time, Sect Master Lin of Xuli Sect, grateful for our valley master’s assistance in the battle, gave the ownership of Yong’an City to our valley master. Danlong School lost four Golden Cores in the battle, and after Senior Zhang Jin assumed the acting Sect Master, they formed an alliance with our Huifeng Valley and handed over the ownership of Yong’an City to the valley master. Therefore, Yong’an City is now under the rule of our Huifeng Valley.”

Wang Ba suddenly realized and then shook his head repeatedly:

“This Sect Master Lin and Sect Master Zhang are quite calculating, using a deserted Yong’an City to return favors.”

When Wang Ba said this, Zhang Yin’s face turned slightly awkward:

“It’s not exactly like that. The main reason is that the Incense Fire Dao came, and many Rogue Cultivators have gone to the ‘Yanqiao Pass’ in the northeast.”

“The Incense Fire Dao had come?!”

Mid-air, Wang Ba’s body suddenly halted, showing a shocked expression.

Zhang Yin also quickly stopped, looking puzzled:

“Doesn’t Master Shen know?”

Wang Ba shook his head slightly.

He had spent these days with Zhao Feng, one concentrating on Cultivation, the other on healing Spirit Beasts. They were completely isolated from the world.
