Chapter 440: Chapter 39 Dispute_1
The place where Wang Ba and Zhao Feng set up camp now is not far from Huifeng Valley, but is closer to Baiyun Prairie.
After a brief consideration, he left a Teleportation Array Plate there, asking Zhao Feng to watch over it.
Then he went alone to Yong’an City in Baiyun Prairie.
The address that Li Ji left for Wang Ba is actually Yong’an City in the past.
He traveled without stopping.
From afar, he saw a carriage suspended in the air above Yong’an City, which gave him a start.
“Is Li Ji’s uncle here too?”
What amazed him more was that not only was there this carriage, Yong’an City seemed quite bustling.
Wang Ba couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
With all the rogue cultivators flocking to Yanqiao Pass in the northeast, where did these cultivators in the city come from?
After thinking for a moment, he landed outside Yong’an City and sent out a Sound Transmission Talisman once again.
Not long after, a figure flew out from within Yong’an City.
“Ha ha, Fellow Shen!”
From afar, he heard Li Ji’s hearty voice.
Seeing Li Ji, Wang Ba couldn’t help but smile:
“Fellow Li, long time no see.”
As soon as they met, they chatted and seemed to have a lot to talk about.
However, Wang Ba didn’t forget why he came here, and hurriedly said:
“Fellow Li, I came here this time to ask you to help me refine a set of Class II Spirit Cook’s magic tools…”
“Hehe, when you mentioned it in your Sound Transmission Talisman, I already prepared the embryo. Now I’m just waiting for you to inspect it, come on, let’s go to the city to talk.”
Li Ji responded enthusiastically.
When Wang Ba heard this, he immediately recalled the carriage in the sky above Yong’an City and curiously asked:
“Fellow Li, if I may ask, weren’t you in Chu? Why did you suddenly come here… eh, if it’s inconvenient, just ignore my question.”
“There’s nothing I can’t talk about.”
Li Ji glanced at the carriage: “But it’s a long story.”
He organized his thoughts and explained:
“It’s because of the Incense Fire Dao. Wei and Xu States are gone. If Qiao can’t hold, Yan State will be in danger, and the Kingdom of Immortals could directly invade Chu.”
“As the guardian of Yan State, Prince Gao is currently inviting Immortal Masters of Nascent Soul from all over to assist Qiao State and defend against the enemy outside the country. Naturally, my uncle is also helping to alleviate Prince Gao’s concerns. She brought her Dao soldiers here, prepared to gather up the Sects of Yan State, and collect supplies to guard Yanqiao Pass.”
“Prince Gao? The Guardian of Yan?”
Wang Ba was taken aback upon hearing this.
This title was somewhat unfamiliar to him.
Li Ji suddenly remembered and showed a slightly apologetic smile:
“I almost forgot, I haven’t told you yet. My uncle is one of Prince Gao’s wives.”
“I see.”
Wang Ba laughed.
In fact, he still didn’t quite understand who this Prince Gao was.
However, since he didn’t feel any connection between them, he did not ask further.
Soon, under the guidance of Li Ji, he entered the city.
The original houses had been completely demolished, leaving an open space.
On the open space, a woman cultivator in yellow armor was standing among a group of cultivators also wearing standard armor.
She had a gentle appearance and a yawning figure.
Standing among the crowd, she was like a triton among the minnows.
Although a woman, her momentum overpowered everyone present.
Wang Ba only glanced at her, and his heart was gripped.
There was a kind of familiarity about her.
She reminded him of Zhang Daobai whom he had met before…
He couldn’t help whispering to Li Ji:
“Is your uncle… an Immortal Master of Nascent Soul?”
Li Ji heard this and immediately raised his eyebrows, his face was full of smiles:
“Right, my uncle had already reached the peak stage of Golden Core, and not too long ago, with the help of Prince Gao, she had successfully stepped into the Nascent Soul’s Dao…”
It seemed that she noticed someone was talking about her.
The female cultivator in the yellow robe with armor from afar glanced at Wang Ba.
She quickly recognized Wang Ba.
But she didn’t have the intention to greet Wang Ba, and immediately withdrew her gaze.
In her eyes, Wang Ba was nothing but a rogue cultivator with some skills.
He may have talent, but he was at a much lower stage.
Wang Ba immediately sensed this.
He promptly closed his mouth, not daring to ask more.
Wang Ba was very self-aware.
He didn’t think that because he had traded with this Immortal Master of Nascent Soul in the past, she would look at him differently.
If it weren’t for Li Ji’s relationship, she probably wouldn’t have bothered with him in the first place.
So, Wang Ba just followed Li Ji with his head down into a temporarily set up Refining Room.
Soon he found that, as Li Ji had told him, the embryo of the magic tool had indeed been prepared and was just waiting for Wang Ba’s approval.
Wang Ba thought it over and, based on Jia 17’s body characteristics, made some adjustments to the embryo.
Li Ji found it strange, but he didn’t ask any more questions and directly began to refine it for Wang Ba.
With the experience from last time, and since the embryo of the magic tool was already prepared, it saved a lot of time.
It only took half a day to successfully refine the Class II Spirit Cook’s magic tools.
Despite Li Ji’s strong refusal, Wang Ba still handed over five essences of the Spirit Chicken as payment for the materials and fees.
And he also paid off the remaining chicken essence to Li Ji at once.
“Hm? The Spirit Chicken essence seems to be much better this time…”
Li Ji had a taste and couldn’t help being surprised.
Wang Ba just smiled without offering an explanation.
The usual Class II Spirit Chicken essence was made from Class II upper-grade Spirit Chickens.
But the one given to Li Ji was made from Class II top-grade Spirit Chickens.
