Chapter 108: Waited Five Years

Youre going to keep me here? Haha! What big words! the white-robed man scoffed in disdain. I wouldnt have been able to get here at all if you had the means to stop me. Do you think you and your Wolf Army are a match for me? You havent seen my true skills yet!

Youre stalling for time. Fang Chen must have received the news and is heading here, Wolf Marshall Xiao suddenly said.

Arent you going to escape since you know Fang Chen is on his way here? I heard he has regained his cultivation. You wont be a match for us once we join forces, the white-robed man replied with a chuckle.

I shattered his ki sea. Theres no way for him to regain his martial cultivation. I dont know what your emperor was thinking by killing our Greenpine martial artists and my daughter. Is he trying to provoke me to invade Great Xia? But for what reason? Wolf Marshall Xiao asked.

Ey, I also dont know why Big Fang did that. He should have at least considered my plight before doing as he pleased! The white-robed man sighed. Why dont I head back and get to the bottom of this matter, then Ill answer your doubts via letter?

Hah! Wolf Marshall Xiao sneered. Youre taking me for a fool.

I wouldnt dare. Youre Greenpines First Wolf Marshall! The white-robed man laughed. I would never dare to take you for a fool. You know that I am stalling for time, but youre still playing along with me. Whats your intention?

Just then, resounding laughter echoed from afar. A few figures could be spotted heading toward the Tiger Gate Pass.

He never intended to keep you in Greenpine.

Big Fang! The white-robed man rushed toward the approaching figures with hearty laughter.

The Wolf Army wanted to stop him, but Wolf Marshall Xiao stopped them with a raised hand. Wolf Marshall Xiao quietly looked at the familiar yet foreign figure.

Fang Chen shared a hug with the white-robed man, while Xu Ge smiled doltishly by the side. Celestial Xiao looked at Wolf Marshall Xiao with a conflicted expression.

The Wolf Army was surprised and confused to see that Celestial Xiao was still alive and was traveling with Fang Chen.

How has Greenpine been? Fang Chen assessed Xia Ji with a peculiar gleam in his eyes.

Ive been well. Good food, good drinks, beautiful women; I didnt lack anything at all. Xia Ji reminisced with a wistful look, oblivious to Fang Chens anomaly. Its just that I realized Wolf Marshall Xiao wanted to take my life a while back, so I had no choice but to escape.

May we have a private chat? Fang Chen looked at Wolf Marshall Xiao.

The latter looked at Fang Chens grayish-white eyes and nodded.

Fang Chen fell silent.

Wolf Marshall Xiao frowned. The Third Prince shouldnt have been able to get here if I didnt make a move, and Fang Chen only arrived in time because I sent a message over. Yet, why is the Third Prince speaking as if he planned this?

Isnt it about time, Junior Xia? Our master has waited five years for you. You should be done tying up loose knots in your secular affairs by now, a voice echoed from a nearby tree.

Both Wolf Marshall Xiao and Fang Chen were startled. The nearby Wolf Army tensed up too, and they began making moves to encircle the tree, only to be stopped by Wolf Marshall Xiao.

The other party had been hiding on this tree all this while, but Wolf Marshall Xiao didnt notice a thing despite being a Ki Manifestation martial artist. This hinted that the other party was strong.

On top of that, the other party addressed Xia Ji as junior, which meant that he or his master might have been the reason Xia Ji possessed strength comparable to a Ki Manifestation martial artist even though he was thought to be a normal person.

Is it you, Senior Liu? Master didnt send Senior Wu to fetch me? Xia Ji was disappointed.

You should be happy Im here to fetch you!

The man hiding in the tree harrumphed in dissatisfaction. He leaped off the tree, and with just a few steps, he was already standing before the crowd. The way his leisurely steps covered a huge distance created an illusion as if space had contracted just for him to move faster.

He uncorked the gourd he was holding with his right hand and downed its content. A fragrant alcoholic scent wafted in the air. After drinking his fill, he let out a satisfied burp.

Without bothering to look at the others, he turned to Xia Ji and impatiently said, Hurry up and say what you want to say. We wont make it for the boat if you continue dawdling here.

All right, all right. Xia Ji helplessly nodded. He gave Fang Chen another tight hug before saying, Big Fang, my brother! Ill be going to a faraway place, so I need you to shoulder the burden while Im gone. Ill be entrusting Great Xia to you. Dont worry, Ill return to dominate the world once I become a master!

Where are you going? Fang Chen frowned.

You dont need to care about that. The two of you arent from the same world anymore. If not for you, he wouldnt have kept stalling for time, Senior Liu sneered at Fang Chen. He stepped forward and grabbed Xia ji, and the two of them vanished from sight with just a few leaps.

What an incredible movement skill. Wolf Marshall Xiao has a tight frown on his face. He had never seen such terrifying movement skill before, even from experts in grade-8 states.

That fellow stumbled upon a fortuitous encounter five years ago, but he waited for five whole years for me to regain my martial cultivation before leaving Fang Chen shook his head and sighed.

He couldnt see through Senior Lius background, but he did sense a pulsation of spirit ki when he embraced Xia Ji. The latter must have joined a cultivator sect.
