Chapter 277: Chapter 266: Lost Again

A moment later, classroom order was restored.

Wang Wu honestly asked again.

“What did you mean by restraint earlier?”

“Naturally, it is to achieve a special effect—Full of Energy!”

General Xuelang spoke in a very solemn tone, “This term is actually borrowed from the Human Race, who have another meaning for this term, specifically referring to Human Race males, but for us Demon Race, the true meaning is the second one, which is Qi blood perfection.”

“This is a very rare and extremely difficult effect to achieve.”

“Let’s put it this way, the prerequisite for the Five Elements Golden Body is that you must be Full of Energy. Only then can you awaken the most basic bloodline secret techniques.”

“That is, secret techniques related to life—Eternal Life, secret techniques related to physical strength—Qi Gathering and Transformation, secret techniques related to agility—Thunderous and Swift, secret techniques related to power—Turn the Tide, and secret techniques related to roots and bones—Copper Head Iron Bone.”

“According to the Great Snow Mountain Academy standards, an ordinary Demon Race must achieve the Full of Energy effect at least 9 times in their lifetime to be considered qualified.”

“And an Ancient Blood Demon Race must achieve the Full of Energy effect at least 99 times in their lifetime to be considered initiated.”

“It’s worth mentioning that this so-called lifetime actually refers to the first three stages of life. Once reaching the fourth stage, it’s practically impossible to achieve the Full of Energy effect.”

“When I was at the Great Snow Mountain Academy, because of this, your mother took an interest in me and accepted me as a disciple.”

“Xiong Wu, tell me, up to this moment, have you exceeded 99 times with the Full of Energy effect? If you have not, then I’m sorry, you must restrain yourself; that’s my answer to you.”

At this moment, General Xuelang seemed possessed by the spirit of the Mountain Master of Great Snow Mountain Academy, well, he was once the Mountain Master, truly exuding power without anger. This isn’t a tutoring teacher; this is a homeroom teacher.

Wang Wu was dumbfounded, wanted to say something, but ultimately held back, unnecessary, unnecessary, we are comrades, we are comrades, as long as it’s happy, it’s fine.

What’s with the 99 times of Full of Energy, do you need me to cut it down for you?

Not to mention before, even now, every second is Full of Energy…

He’s long stopped pursuing this, you know.

“By the way, you said you were once my mother’s disciple, does that mean I should call you Senior Sister?” Wang Wu suddenly thought of this, swiftly changing the topic.

“I suppose, in our Demon Race, there’s no concept of direct disciple. It wasn’t until after the Bear Demon Emperor reformed that the titles of master and disciple existed within the Academy, but outside the Academy, it doesn’t matter anymore.” General Xuelang laughed.

“Then you are my Senior Sister too; while other demons may not recognize it, I do. Senior Sister, please accept my bow.” Wang Wu said earnestly, he respected Bear Mother very much and was also very grateful, regrettably never having the opportunity to repay, upon hearing General Xuelang had such a connection with Bear Mother, he truly felt close, despite their already intimate relationship.

General Xuelang looked at Wang Wu, seeming to recall some past events, but ultimately sighed lightly, “I don’t dare accept this title, you are my king, and for the rest of my life, I am yours, willing to stay beneath, how dare I be above? Besides, that day I watched helplessly as your mother was killed by Lu Wuchen and dared not intervene, how can I be worthy of you calling me Senior Sister.”

“Oh, I say you are, you are. Back then you were merely Third Grade, with what could you save! My mother likely didn’t want you to strike an egg against a rock, don’t bring it up anymore. Now, Senior Sister, could you possibly unleash the Wolf’s Gaze Divine Techniques?”

Wang Wu waved nonchalantly, General Xuelang’s thoughts were overly humble, coupled with Wolf Bu’er’s death, it always left it feeling like its future meant nothing, no hope, a sense of being a living corpse.

That’s not good, life after all, occasionally needs to bloom intensely.

“I cannot, my Bright Demon Pill still has internal injuries, not suitable for reckless Qi blood movement, however, if this really is North Sea, we head straight south, we can definitely reach North Wilderness, where the Northern Wilderness Demon Race is watched over by two great Demon Emperors, no chance for Human Race to infiltrate, we can safely spend some time there.”

“My cultivation is of no consequence, but you must seize the opportunity for the fourth life realm’s leap. Alas, my fault. On that day at Luoyue City, distracted by Bu’er, my mind was unfocused, unable to reason, had I just convinced you a few more words, we wouldn’t be stuck here in North Sea, you wouldn’t have lost 1500 years of longevity, though you survived the catastrophe, your grand cultivation was thus diminished.”

General Xuelang said so, unable to resist self-blame, in its view, Wang Wu originally had the potential to become a Great Wilderness Demon Emperor, now it’s uncertain even if he’d ascend to Second Grade, and yet those sixteen Five Elements Spirit Pills went to it.

So, seeing Wang Wu laughing heartily, it couldn’t help but feel guilty inside.

“Ha! Senior Sister, don’t overthink, come up, we’ve got to go.” Wang Wu smiled, General Xuelang’s knot in the heart could only be resolved by time, words were useless.

Currently transformed into a bear form, circling General Xuelang rapidly.

Previously he was saving Qi blood so had to swim in human form.

Now it’s no longer necessary, and bear form is more comfortable to sit.

“I already said, don’t call me Senior Sister.” General Xuelang felt uncomfortable, yet still leaped onto Wang Wu’s back, not to mention, this was indeed quite comfortable.

Wang Wu smiled, after swimming for a while, called out his Companion Demon Vine, transforming it into a raft, doubling as a boatman to row, while he flipped over, turned human, pulling General Xuelang back into his arms, together watching as the sky met the sea, clouds drifted by, the sea breeze blew gently, wonderfully leisurely.

“Should we go around, you just killed a Sea Demon, so as not to be found?”

General Xuelang was somewhat worried.

“Alright, boatman, steer a bit to the west.”

Wang Wu complied readily, preferring less trouble over more; he didn’t want to confront the Beihai Demon Race directly.

“Senior Sister, tell me about the Great Snow Mountain Academy, and also, why did my mother have to name me Xiong Erhua? What’s your name? Wolf Bu’er or Wolf Zhenbai?”

…

The Companion Demon Vine was indeed a great helmsman, heading southwest with the speed of the wind, ceaselessly day and night, covering over a thousand miles in a single day and night.

Meanwhile, Wang Wu and General Xuelang chatted away on the boat. Although General Xuelang hadn’t traveled the Great Wilderness, he had read through stolen texts from the Great Snow Mountain Academy. He might not have everything correct, but he got the gist of it.

His voice, especially, was pleasant, narrating tales with great eloquence, creating an unparalleled experience.

However, they didn’t pursue cultivation further as resources were scarce. The vitality of the Companion Demon Vine was used for steering the boat, while Wang Wu’s qi and vitality were saved for battles, so they couldn’t tap into them further.

Fortunately, General Xuelang had already cultivated two Ninth Grade Tongqiao Demon Pills, stabilizing the Three Demon Pill System. Although not yet ready for combat, he was unaffected by everyday turbulence.

Then, a month passed.

The Companion Demon Vine galloped for thirty thousand miles non-stop, becoming utterly exhausted, and simply decided to collapse, rebel, and go on strike.

Wang Wu and General Xuelang looked at each other in confusion. They were supposed to head south, ending up in the North Wilderness. Even after correcting a slight deviation, it seemed they circled around that sea region, but Wang Wu had promptly corrected the course.

Something just felt off.

“Perhaps catch a Sea Demon and ask for directions?” General Xuelang suggested anxiously. He wasn’t worried about the delay in time, but Xiong Wu was at the fourth major life realm, urgently needing seclusion.

“Alright!”

Wang Wu nodded, carrying General Xuelang on his back as he started paddling arduously, searching the surroundings. This time, he wasn’t going to let go of any Sea Demons they encountered.

As fortune would have it, soon, Wang Wu spotted a small boat in the distance.

It was truly amazing.

After drifting almost four months on the vast sea, spotting a boat was even more thrilling than encountering a group of Sea Demons.

Because this indicated the proximity to land.

Cautious about being too reckless, Wang Wu swam over stealthily to find a moderately-sized fishing boat, about fifty meters long and five meters wide, sporting nine sails, with a talisman on each allowing it to sail against the wind.

At the bow stood a five-meter-tall, wildly gesturing, bizarre statue of a Sea Demon.

On the deck was an elder, over fifty, holding a jade fishing rod more than fifty meters long, fishing.

This was a Human Race Cultivator, at least Fifth Grade in strength.

Inside the cabin were a woman around forty, a young man about twenty, and a woman in her late teens, likely a couple, as she cradled an infant only a few months old.

Combining a fishing boat, a Fifth-Grade Human Race cultivator, a family, women, and children on the endless sea seemed off no matter how you looked at it.

A Fifth-Grade Human Race Cultivator couldn’t establish a residence on land? Even casually doing something should support a family, right?

Yet they all risked their lives in these raging seas to earn a living.

Questioning it as he might, Wang Wu wasn’t going to pass up this opportunity.

So from over a thousand meters away, he shouted for help, giving them time to respond. It wouldn’t look friendly to appear suddenly in front of them.

As he yelled, the Human Race cultivator whipped his fishing rod hard, and a golden fish hook flew up from the water, for goodness’ sake, this fishing line was at least eight hundred meters, was he angling for whales?

Simultaneously the sails on the fishing boat lit up, moving without wind, and made a swift about-face, outright ignoring the shouts—yeah sure, just ignore me then.

“Esteemed fellow fishing Daoist, my spouse and I mean no harm, merely seeking guidance on the direction to land! We’re willing to generously thank you!”

Wang Wu shouted at the top of his lungs, but wow, their full-speed escape was truly fast. He couldn’t activate the Demon Wind for pursuit—it was really troublesome.

Upon hearing this, the Human Race Cultivator on the fishing boat did not slow down, yet did point in one direction.

Then, unknown what array was activated on the boat, but a dense fog enveloped it, and before long, it vanished completely.

Wow, truly cautious they were.
