Chapter 282: Chapter 62: Battle Start! (5000 More)_2

Since there were no more favors to be taken into account, they naturally reverted to pure trade.

A fair deal for everyone.

Wu Buping hesitated for a moment, then directly handed over a Storage Bag.

Wang Ba, however, did not receive it but looked at him suspiciously.

Wu Buping explained:

“This is all the accumulation from my Cultivation thus far, apart from the ‘Meteor Flame Iron’, fellow Daoist can choose one more as a testament to my sincerity.”

Wang Ba hesitated for a moment, but he took it anyway.

In fact, to him, a piece of Meteor Flame Iron was already more than worth it.

Having one more item or one less didn’t make much difference.

However, as he scanned the Storage Bag, his eyes lit up, selecting one of the items.

“This one!”

Wang Ba took it out.

It was an antiquated Compass.

Seeing this, Wu Buping’s eyes flashed with a hint of heartache.

“Fellow Daoist indeed has a good eye, this is a ‘Class III Dragon Seeking Compass’, capable of exploring Spiritual Lineages and seeking spirit items; one of the few Class III treasures I possess.”

Wang Ba remained calm upon hearing this as if this was no surprise to him. He only smiled and said:

“Fellow Daoist, you wouldn’t be reluctant to part with it, would you?”

“Of course I am reluctant, but since I said it, I will do it.”

Wu Buping shook his head and directly handed the Class III Dragon Seeking Compass to Wang Ba.

At the same time, he took out from his sleeve a piece of metal-like ore that was clear as crystal, and inside of it, a flame was rising.

Seeing this stone, Wang Ba immediately perked up.

This was the Meteor Flame Iron that he coveted immensely.

It was a Class III item, exactly the materials of gold and fire that Wang Ba needed for his Second Dantian.

However, Wang Ba also knew the rules and immediately took out a crescent-shaped Magic Tool from his Storage Bag.

The two exchanged items, both extremely pleased.

Immediately, they both lost interest in further idle chat.

After exchanging pleasantries again, Wu Buping proposed to leave.

However, before leaving, he seriously said:

“I have a message for Fellow Daoist, if you want to return to your Sect, it’s best not to go north, I heard that many Incense-burning Dao Cultivators have gathered there.”

“Thank you for your guidance.”

Wang Ba sincerely responded.

After Wu Buping left, Wang Ba and Shen Fu immediately left the place, hidden their traces, and traveled more than a hundred miles in the thick forest before they stopped in a desolate mountain.

“Elder Brother doesn’t need to worry too much. Wu Buping is quite trustworthy; he shouldn’t go back on his word.”

Shen Fu suddenly said.

Wang Ba nodded at Shen’s words: “I trust your judgment, but I’m not worried about him, I’m worried that other people might think differently.”

“Elder Brother is saying that those Rogue Cultivators of Qianyu Lake might be covetous…”

Shen Fu paused slightly, then quickly showed a thoughtful expression.

It’s just a precaution.”

Wang Ba took out a large map of Chen State from his Storage Bag.

Although it was an old map and didn’t record the forces of the Incense Fire Dao, it was still quite helpful for determining their current position and planning the route ahead.

“Do you think we can trust what Wu Buping said before he left?”

Wang Ba stared at the map, not looking up as he asked.

Though Shen Fu was a bit absent-minded, after hearing Wang Ba’s question, he pondered for a moment, and quickly replied:

“There shouldn’t be a problem, he has no enmity with us, there’s no need for him to deliberately mislead us.”

Wang Ba nodded at his words, gazing at the map, deep in thought:

“The East Saint Sect is located on the westernmost side of Chen State, not far north is the border with Fu State, and a good distance to the east is the Dari School, Chihe Sword Sect, Mountain Sea Sect, Jiuling Sect…”

“While the Incense Fire Dao is entrenched at the central, southern, and southwestern parts of Chen State.”

“If it’s like Wu Buping said, we can’t go north, and the southeastern direction, where I have a feud with the Mountain Sea Sect, not to mention the central part, where there are probably a lot of people gathered now… In that case, the only option is to move south, then turn back to the East Saint Sect’s base via the southwest.”

Listening to Wang Ba’s analysis, Shen Fu couldn’t help but nod:

“Elder Brother is right, the only path for us should indeed be this way.”

The two of them discussed a little more, but unfortunately, they were both unfamiliar with this area, and the route they planned out was indeed crude.

This made Wang Ba think of Hua Meng and the others.

If they were here, maybe they could come up with a better plan.

Unfortunately, when Wang Ba was preparing to rescue Shen Fu, he dispersed them, and by now, they probably have hidden in Qianyu Lake with the other Rogue Cultivators.

Fortunately, the map was detailed enough that Wang Ba could understand it himself.

He immediately flew to the south with Shen Fu at low altitude.

They didn’t know if it was because the Tianmen Cult and the Incense Fire Dao were in all-out war, causing most of the Incense Fire Dao Cultivators to gather at the East Saint Sect’s base, but on their way south, they didn’t encounter many people.

However, when Wang Ba and Shen Fu came near Xionghu Mountain again, they ran into a few Class I Incense-burning Dao Cultivators.

Before Wang Ba could act, Shen Fu easily subdued them.

After a Soul Search by Wang Ba, he unexpectedly gained a lot of information and couldn’t help but reveal an astonished expression.

“Lu Yuansheng actually left the base voluntarily!”

“And he not long ago personally took action and captured ‘Zhongyuan City’, the largest city in Chen State that was previously occupied by the Incense Fire Dao Cultivators!”

“However, the Incense Fire Dao immediately retaliated, presently there are… wait! Six Class III Cultivators are teaming up to siege Zhongyuan City?!”

“There are… six Class III Cultivators from the Incense Fire Dao in Chen State?!”
