Chapter 319: Chapter 78 Separation_1
North of Yan State.
The sky above Canglan City.
An arc of light came flying from afar, pausing in the sky, just like a swallow returning to its nest, it quickly descended into Canglan City.
Meanwhile, sensing something, Shen Fu, who was waiting in the lord’s mansion, nervously looked towards the courtyard.
He saw a cultivator wearing blue robe, with a common face, emitting no aura of soul, smiling at him.
Shen Fu’s alarm instantly turned into joy:
“Senior Brother!”
“Heh heh, Junior Brother.”
The man was none other than Wang Ba.
Upon hearing the commotion, Bu Chan promptly stepped out.
But before she could speak, a cream-colored phantom took the lead and flew out, landing on Wang Ba’s shoulder.
Covered in cream-colored feathers, topped with a tuft of silly hair, with round, rosy cheeks on both sides of its face, it looked extremely cute.
This was the class II upper grade Spirit Bird, a parrot that looked like the Mysterious Phoenix, that Wang Ba previously gave to Bu Chan to raise and take care of.
At this moment, it stretched its neck and opened its beak.
“Boli——”
Then, it wagged its long tail feathers tauntingly and ‘plop!’ A bird dropping landed on Wang Ba’s shoulder.
“Boli!”
Bu Chan couldn’t help but glare at the little yellow bird standing on Wang Ba’s shoulder.
Because the little yellow bird always went ‘boli, boli’, hence, Bu Chan straightforwardly named it Boli.
Realizing its master’s anger, Boli stared at Wang Ba, pecked at his ear cheekily, and then fluttered back to Bu Chan’s shoulder without hesitation.
It laid its head to the side, snuggled up to Bu Chan’s cheek, just like a child craving for affection:
‘Boli——’
Seeing this, Wang Ba didn’t mind.
Soon after Boli had hatched, it was hand-fed by Bu Chan. Thus, it was naturally more affectionate towards her.
Of course, it was also quite fond of him.
But anyone other than him and Bu Chan, even Shen Fu, didn’t dare to approach it casually. If anyone reached out to it, they would be ruthlessly pecked by the little yellow bird.
Although this little yellow bird looked cute and small, it was indeed a genuine class II upper grade. Its speed was even faster than the phantom chickens of the same grade. Wang Ba couldn’t even see the shadow of the little yellow bird.
One peck, and the hand would probably be pecked off.
With its protective instincts at full tilt.
This was also an important reason why Wang Ba felt at ease when Bu Chan left. With the little yellow bird around, even a middle-stage Foundation Establishment competitor might not be able to evade it.
With a casual swipe of the purification sutra, he erased the bird droppings and then Wang Ba said:
“Let’s leave now.”
“So soon?”
Bu Chan and Shen Fu were surprised.
“During the time I was with the cult, I had a fight with Zhu Ziji. I’m worried it might attract attention. I left in a hurry and didn’t have time to cover all my traces. A member of the Tianmen Cult might have already found out.”
Wang Ba spoke solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Shen Fu and Bu Chan couldn’t help but become serious.
“Senior Brother, are you hurt?”
Unable to hold back, Bu Chan rushed to hold onto Wang Ba’s hand, her eyes filled with concern.
Unlike Wang Ba, she would listen daily to the fellow disciples of the Tianmen Cult and had heard of some of Zhu Ziji’s strength and status with the Tianmen Cult.
“Hehe, I’m fine. Let’s leave first.”
Wang Ba shook his head slightly.
Shen Fu couldn’t help saying to the side:
“Senior Brother, has Zhu Ziji followed us here?”
“Him? Don’t worry. He most likely couldn’t have followed us here.”
Wang Ba laughed, not saying much.
However, they both inferred the hidden meaning and looked surprised.
Shen Fu was okay, as he had previously seen Wang Ba defeat Zheng Yuanhua with his own eyes and already knew Wang Ba’s strength.
But Bu Chan had only heard about it, and after all, she didn’t really know how strong Zheng Yuanhua was.
Listening to her senior brother’s words now, Zhu Ziji, who had been raging for years within the Tianmen Cult, was unexpectedly defeated by him!
This news was too shocking for Bu Chan.
However, in the next moment, Bu Chan hugged Wang Ba as a teenage girl would, completely disregarding Shen Fu beside them.
Shen Fu felt uncomfortable at once.
When they parted, Shen Fu hesitated for a while, finally made up his mind, and suddenly said:
“Senior Brother, I’m afraid I will not be able to accompany you on your journey.”
Wang Ba and Bu Chan were taken aback by the sudden announcement.
Wang Ba’s face darkened slightly: “What’s going on?”
Having made up his mind, Shen Fu stopped hesitating and frankly said:
“I came back for two reasons – first, I was worried about both of you, and second, I was drafted by the Tianmen Cult.”
“As of now, all three of us have successfully left the Tianmen Cult and the constraints of the Spirit Sending Sign are no longer there. Most likely they won’t be able to find us, so…I want to travel around and gather some experience.”
Wang Ba’s eyebrows furrowed slightly: “Has it to be at this moment?”
“Yeah, Shen Fu, we’ve just managed to gather together. It’s just been a year. How about we wait until we reach a place, settle down, and then you can leave.”
Bu Chan also tried to persuade.
Shen Fu remained silent, which was uncommon for him.
But looking at the determination in Shen Fu’s eyes, Wang Ba was silent for a moment:
“When will you return?”
Shen Fu shook his head slowly and openly said, “I don’t know. It could be soon, or it could be a long while.”
Hearing this familiar response, some of Wang Ba’s joy at leaving Tianmen Cult also faded.
He didn’t say anything and walked into the house alone.
Not long after, he came out of the house with a Storage Bag and a Spirit Beast Bag and threw them to Shen Fu.
Shen Fu attempted to refuse but Wang Ba sternly said:
“Take it!”
Shen Fu hesitated for a moment but accepted them.
“All right, you can go now!”
