Chapter 398: Chapter 27 Cooperation_2

But this time it really wasn’t the Wu Monkey King’s fault. He himself had not fully thought things through nor prepared well.

Under the influence of the external situation, he lost his usual composure and became somewhat disoriented.

The outcome was only natural.

Nevertheless, he couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

After all, as long as the Wu Monkey King successfully advanced, he could head to the Linglong Ghost Market and receive protection.

What struck him as surprising, however, was that the failed-to-advance Wu Monkey King seemed to have realized something, a hint of loss appearing in his eyes in an all-too-human way.

However, he didn’t let his disappointment continue. Instead, he found a place and once again began his meditative cultivation practice.

In his gaze, there was an inexplicable calm and firm resolution.

Seeing this, Wang Ba fell silent for a moment.

He walked up, gently patting the Wu Monkey King’s head.

It was as if he was comforting the Wu Monkey King, or perhaps himself.

“It’s okay, we just missed a Class III Inner Core. Let’s find another way.”

Traveling with the Wu Monkey King, he used the Teleportation Talisman and quickly returned to Yong’an City.

Not long after.

While in his cultivation practice, Wang Ba suddenly paused.

He instinctively looked up at the sky.

Through the formation, he didn’t see anything.

However, he faintly felt that in that direction, there seemed to be a trickle of his own Power of the Yin God…

“Is it Feng Bao?!”

A shock resonated in Wang Ba’s heart.

The next moment, a voice pierced through the formation, reaching his ears.

“Shen, this is Yan Qing, humbly requesting an audience.”

Yan Qing? The fellow from Huifeng Valley? What does he want me for?

And why is he creeping around?

After brief hesitation, Wang Ba walked to the gate, quietly opening the formation and the gate.

Wang Ba felt a faint breeze by his ear.

The gate was already shut.

And next to him quickly appeared the figures of Yan Qing and Feng Bao.

“Please forgive me, Shen. There are many eyes and ears of Xuli Sect around us, we had no choice but to act this way.”

Master Yan Qing took the initiative to bow in greeting.

Feng Bao by his side was also exceedingly respectful.

Wang Ba quickly stepped aside, returning the salute: “Master Yan, you flatter me.”

“If you have any requests, just let me know.”

He couldn’t help but feel curious in his heart.

The impression Master Yan had left on him before wasn’t exactly polite.

He wondered why Master Yan would place himself so low today.

“Hehe, I knew Shen would understand.”

Master Yan laughed, then added: “So, I’ll go straight to the point. I represent Huifeng Valley, and we wish to cooperate with you.”

“Cooperate?”

This was beyond Wang Ba’s expectations.

“That’s right, there’s no need to elaborate on the current situation. After the three major sects have fully devoured the rogue cultivators of Yong’an City, they will proceed to Zhenling Palace. Without Zhang Daobai, and with only four Golden Core cultivators remaining, Zhenling Palace absolutely cannot withstand the joint attack of the three major sects.”

“This is an inevitable fact. The only question is, once Zhenling Palace has been taken, it’s likely that there will be some friction between the three sects.”

Master Yan was surprisingly forthright.

Indeed, just as Li Ji had guessed.

Wang Ba sighed to himself, then asked hesitantly, “I don’t quite understand all that, so what am I supposed to do?”

“Hehe, Shen, you’re too modest. You are very close to Yuan Wenzhi and Zhang Tailai. If any disputes occur between our three sects in the future, we hope that you can convince them to stand with Huifeng Valley. Even if you don’t take any action and only show your face at the scene, it’s good enough.”

“Unfortunately, the power of the Xuli Sect has grown rapidly in recent years. Despite our best efforts, we haven’t been able to catch up with them. Especially after they swallowed the Wujing School, we can barely maintain a balance now by relying on this method.”

“If this situation remains the same, I’m afraid we’ll have to join forces with Danlong School.”

Master Yan’s words were strikingly sincere.

Wang Ba was also moved deep down.

Contrary to his expectations, Huifeng Valley, being one of the three major sects, was feeling so pessimistic and helpless against the Xuli Sect.

He didn’t expect that Master Yan would be so candid in front of an outsider like him.

Seeing Wang Ba’s hesitation, Master Yan directly took out a storage bag from his sleeve and handed it over to him.

“This is…”

Wang Ba was puzzled.

“Just open it and see.”

Master Yan laughed.

With doubt, Wang Ba opened the storage bag. Upon seeing the contents, his face immediately lit up with surprise.

“Emerald Feather Bone, Gold Feather Grass… White Dragon Sulfur!”

“We managed to find the spirit materials you asked for before, but unfortunately, we are still missing a Jidu Ganoderma and a Class III Spirit Beast Inner Core.”

Master Yan stroked his beard and laughed:

“We have no clue where to find Jidu Ganoderma, but we already have leads on the Class III Spirit Beast Inner Core. In less than six months, we should be able to find it.”

“As long as you cooperate with us, you can take all these items.”

“Later on, the Class III Spirit Beast Inner Core will also be offered to you.”

“Shen, what do you think?”

Holding the White Dragon Sulfur in his hands, Wang Ba didn’t let himself get carried away and asked instead:

“What if both Master Yuan and Master Zhang refuse to listen to me?”

Upon hearing this question, Master Yan was slightly taken aback, then he laughed and shook his head:

“If that’s the case, it’s the fate of our Huifeng Valley, and we have nobody to blame but ourselves.”

Hearing this response, Wang Ba seemed to have a slightly more favorable opinion of Huifeng Valley.

Thus, he had no more doubts.

The two of them immediately made a rather flexible oath.

Then Master Yan took Feng Bao and left in a hurry. It seemed he was not only betting on Wang Ba.
