Chapter 1987: Chapter 69: News
Standing beside Wang Ba, Yu Wuheng’s expression also slightly changed. Just as she was about to intervene, Wang Ba raised his hand gently to stop her.
Wang Ba slightly shook his head:
“There’s no need for you to act, Junior Sister.”
“But…”
Yu Wuheng hesitated.
Yu Yu had already thrown a punch!
The surging, condensed Blood Energy roared in, the gust brought forth like an extremely sharp Magic Tool, directly piercing toward Wang Ba’s face.
Wang Ba sat unmoved, his gaze calm and indifferent.
He allowed the punch to come without interruption.
The surrounding people immediately let out a series of astonished cries.
But in just an instant, these cries all transformed into gasps and sounds of shock.
The faces of the Five Ghost Kings turned dazedly, as if in a dream.
Yun Qi and others, who rushed upon hearing the news, had expressions of astonishment.
And beside Wang Ba, Yu Wuheng’s eyes flashed with rare surprise and confusion.
She hadn’t seen Wang Ba make any movements, yet…
“You… What kind of sorcery are you using? Let me go!”
“Put me down!”
Yu Yu, embarrassed and angry, frozen in mid-air just a few feet from Wang Ba, along with her swirling golden-red Blood Energy. She still held her punching posture but was unable to move like a sculpture, forcing herself to vibrate her Blood Energy inside to make sounds.
Wang Ba, seated not far from her fist, slightly shook his head and sighed:
“Cultivation base achieved, but lack of Cultivating Heart…”
Yu Wuheng suddenly spoke in a low voice:
“Junior Brother! Yu Yu is merely too worried about Chong Hua…”
Wang Ba, however, didn’t look at Yu Wuheng and calmly stated:
“Cultivation is cultivation, cultivating the body is also cultivating the heart. Without the heart taking charge, even Daluo is in vain.”
Yu Wuheng felt a slight tremor in her heart and then fell silent.
Yu Yu, however, began cursing loudly.
But Wang Ba raised his hand for a gentle tap, and soon only ‘hmm hmm’ sounds were left.
Wang Ba looked at Yu Yu and shook his head:
“I’ll punish you by sending you to the Outer Realm to endure the suffering of the Wind Blade carving the body… return when you have figured things out.”
“Hmm hmm!”
In the next instant, Wang Ba waved his sleeve, and Yu Yu was directly sent outside the realm.
As she flew beyond the realm, Yu Yu felt all bindings around her vanish.
She hurriedly wanted to strike to break the Realm Membrane but found it exceedingly tough; despite exerting all her strength, she couldn’t break it open.
She refused to give in and struck with full force, but the Realm Membrane remained immovable.
“Don’t… exert… yourself.”
A somewhat unfamiliar voice made Yu Yu startled, and she turned her head to see a grey furred monkey in monk robes quietly sitting on the Realm Membrane, looking at her.
“Were you also exiled by him?”
Yu Yu frowned slightly.
The grey furred monkey shook its head slightly and said calmly:
“I don’t… understand… what you mean. Do you… want to learn Buddhist Law?”
“Buddhist Law?”
Yu Yu was slightly taken aback.
…
“Yu Yu’s talent is exceptional, but her temperament is arrogant. Without proper guidance, awakening to her past and present lives might cause calamity instead of blessing.”
“I have entrusted Wu Monkey King to teach her the arts of cultivating the body and mind in the Outer Realm.”
On the Taoist Field’s suspended high platform, Wang Ba spoke indifferently.
Yu Wuheng looked somewhat worriedly at the figures of a person and a monkey outside the realm, paused for a moment, but diverted the topic, asking:
“Why hasn’t your Incarnation returned yet?”
Upon hearing Yu Wuheng’s inquiry, Wang Ba sighed softly, shook his head, and also looked toward the Outer Realm.
“I do not know.”
For over a hundred years, Investigation Magic Devices left by the Five Ghost Kings in some ruins outside the Immortal Forbidden Land sporadically captured images of Cultivator’s figures passing by.
But they had not seen Chong Hua and Fanming return.
Wang Ba could only vaguely sense that the others were still alive, but what the current situation was remained unknown.
Compared with Yu Yu, he also worried about Chong Hua’s whereabouts; however, these things need not be expressed.
Nor should much be said in front of the Red Sky Sect and Hundred Ghost Sect.
Just now, personally subduing Yu Yu, firstly, was indeed to give her a lesson, secondly, it also indirectly deterred Cultivators from those two sects, lest they truly believe no one exists in Little Cang World, giving rise to ulterior motives.
Listening to Wang Ba’s words, Yu Wuheng frowned slightly; Chong Hua was the sole person who could help Yu Yu advance further, so her concern was inevitable.
However, she didn’t inquire further, instead, curiously said:
“I find myself unable to discern your realm now… Though Yu Yu is stubborn, presently she shouldn’t be weaker than Chong Hua over a hundred years ago, yet she seems so powerless before you.”
Hearing that, Wang Ba’s expression was calm. He didn’t explain much but simply said indifferently:
“Because she is inside the realm.”
“Inside the realm?”
Recalling Yu Yu’s previous encounter, Yu Wuheng vaguely understood something, and nodded:
“That puts me at ease… I came to tell you that my Primordial Spirit is steady now. Staying here offers no more benefits, and I intend to visit the Sea of Chaos Realm to see if there are ways for further advancement.”
Yu Wuheng’s words undoubtedly caught Wang Ba off guard.
He narrowed his eyes:
“You plan to leave now?”
The expression on Yu Wuheng’s face was casual:
“Can’t say for sure, I might leave soon or perhaps stay a bit longer.”
While speaking, she couldn’t help but glance at the Outer Realm.
Within the entire Little Cang World, aside from Yu Yu, there really was no one else she cared about.
Wang Ba, upon hearing this, couldn’t help furrowing his brow.
Over the decades, due to the ample Chaos Origin Substance provided, the overall strength in Little Cang World has grown considerably.
Yet, in terms of top-tier Cultivators, ultimately due to the short amount of time, so far, aside from Yu Wuheng, Yu Yu, and Black Tortoise, no native unified cultivator has emerged.
