Chapter 390: What is Nu Pu?
“Time is different between here and the world I was from.”
Seeing that others didn’t understand, Ye Zhongming continued, “Simply put, time flows differently. It is slower here than in my other world.”
He turned towards the couple.
“You said that half a year had passed here. But do you know? When I just entered the Secret Realm, it was only three months since the Blue Bay Battle Squad entered here.”This chapter's initial release occurred on the n0vell--Bjjn site.
They were in disbelief. Such things only happened in stories, and it happened to them.
Time? Dimension?
All sorts of terms and concepts appeared in their minds.
Ye Zhongming had suspicions regarding this. He didn’t think about the time flow being different. After all, they lived in ‘time,’ and it was hard to feel the difference.
But he received Red Hair’s message and was very certain from these fragments.
Time was two times faster on Earth than here!
Ye Zhongming didn’t know the exact reason as that was down to scientists.
When he left Cloud Peak, he knew his helpers could last a few months. But who knew that time here was slow? The few months he spent here was half a year on Earth. Those enemies were already ready to attack Cloud Peak.
So he had to get back!
Although the time difference caught him off guard, on the contrary, it gave him enough time to get back. At that time, the strength he could bring back would be far more than he had shown here.
He was confident.
Seeing the young man make his final choice, the few leaders could only accept the reality. They read the plan that he left, and they felt that it made sense.
Grey Mountain and Mountain Bank left to prepare. Ah Tao called Ye Zhongming to his tent and also called another race elder. They explained to him their experience of cultivating the Scorching Flame Technique.
“Not every Posthumous tribe has Nu Pu.”
Miya didn’t look at him. She lowered her head like she was talking to herself.
Ye Zhongming sat next to her.
“When every Posthumous person is born, they would be tested, and only some girls will be called Nu Pu.”
Ye Zhongming knew this place was special, and having special things wasn’t weird for them.
“I am lucky to become Nu Pu. When I was born, the race protected me.” Miya looked at Ye Zhongming.
“Do you know that I snuck out when you captured me? I am not allowed to hunt alone.”
Ye Zhongming didn’t know. He had never heard of such things before.
“Who knew that you would bring me back.”
The two of them laughed; things were awkward at the start.
Miya kept silent and did something surprising. She hugged him. Her chest pressed on his back.
“Miya, you...”
“Let me finish!”
She got emotional.
“Do you know why, even when the tribe was about to collapse, they still protected me? I am a Nu Pu, a woman they can trade me for life.”
His shoulder was wet. It was from her tears.
“The first blood of a Nu Pu can increase the strength of someone who cultivates!”
