Chapter 365: Chapter 344: Reunion with Old Friends

Wang Wu thought for a long time.

Then he silently burned Liu Zongbai’s jade scrolls with Pale Fire, including the Three Thousand Daoist Techniques, including the precious Dragon Scale; anyway, all informational mediums were destroyed, then he dismantled the Profound Iron House and returned to the surface.

It’s not that he doesn’t believe the analysis of the Four Clowns.

But he suddenly thought of something.

Liu Zongbai, as a Spiritual Energy Thief, and clearly an organized, gang-affiliated one, why did he carry these ten diary jade scrolls when entering the Great Wilderness Sin Prison?

Surely, carrying this stuff doesn’t take up space, so it doesn’t matter if you bring it.

But is there really no risk in sneaking into the Great Wilderness Sin Prison?

There must be risks, and there is competition among Spiritual Energy Thieves; if one dies, these jade scrolls could fall into someone else’s hands.

Anyway, Wang Wu couldn’t understand this behavior, writing diaries is one thing, but preparing them for others to see?

It could be understood if a careless person conducted their daily activities this way.

But as a Spiritual Energy Thief, meticulous, organized, why do this?

Could it be planned to provide technical support to the people inside the Great Wilderness Sin Prison?

Especially the Five Elements Heaven Repairing Technique recorded on that Dragon Scale, and the Three Thousand Daoist Techniques General Outline.

What’s the difference between this and a traveler bringing gunpowder preparation, Three Thousand Questions about Steelmaking, postnatal care for sows?

At least travelers have a dream, wanting to reform the wicked old society, wanting to be intoxicated on a beauty’s lap and awaken to wield power over the world.

You, a Spiritual Energy Thief, are you trying to help us break out?

Furthermore, what puzzled Wang Wu the most was two things.

First, is his Level 22 Passive Concealment now worthless? Detected from three hundred miles away, and then they immediately bombard relentlessly, had he not dived underground the first moment using the Profound Iron House to block it, he’s truly afraid he’d have been found by fire detection.

This indicates the other party surely has some special method to locate him.

Second, fifteen years have passed since the breakout ended.

Fifteen years, yet there are still five First Grade Human Race cultivators guarding nearby.

Isn’t the Great Mountain vast, with wilderness sprawling in all directions; so huge, he ran three thousand miles, how can they intercept him so precisely?

So he has ample reason to suspect that the other party is likely comrades of the Spiritual Energy Thief, and they have located his general position through some means, but because Wang Wu hid too deeply, and with Profound Iron blockage.

Thus, over the fifteen years, they could only search and intercept in the general area, waiting.

As they say, whether it is or not, come out and try to know.

If he is discovered, Wang Wu will immediately discard Liu Zongbai’s storage pouch.

At present, daylight has fully dawned.

The countryside is lush and the trees are verdant.

Deep in the distant mountains, morning fog swirls, the scenery is rather nice.

From time to time, birds fly across the sky, and in the forest, various small beasts and insects busy themselves for daily livelihood.

Ignoring the background, it wouldn’t be inappropriate to say this is Earth’s natural reserve.

Wang Wu activated the Concealing Demon Pill, raising the level of Passive Concealment to Level 22, then summoned Demon Wind, slowly flying across valleys and ridges.

Passing through regions destroyed by a Sword Array in recent days, he felt nothing.

Nor did he see those Human Race cultivators pretending to be Demons again.

Continuing onwards, at the peak of a high mountain eight hundred miles away, he finally saw some figures that seemed to be anxiously discussing something.

Wang Wu didn’t approach, but lingered for as long as time takes for a stick of incense to burn, staring at them without blinking, and this time, the other side was completely unaware.

Sometimes, answers are simply this straightforward.

He destroyed the jade scrolls with Pale Fire, destroyed the Dragon Scale, and the positioning disappeared.

After circling around, confirming that there were at least ten of the Spiritual Energy Thief’s comrades, without knowing if there were more allies, he left.

No need to take risks.

Continuing forward, after crossing several large mountains, the scenery opened up; he had exited the mountainous area, ahead was a vast plain, stretching for over a thousand miles, in the center of the plain seemed to be a large river, with a series of low mountains beside it.

As Wang Wu rode the Demon Wind to the riverside, an unbidden thought sprang to mind, no, it was a picture.

In the picture, he saw a person, a woman.

She Shoujiu!

It walked ahead, suddenly turned back and smiled slightly at him!

“A whim!”

“Damn!”

Wang Wu was greatly shocked, the Snake Emperor was already dead, who had the authority to send him a directive bloodline signal?

And the long-dead She Shoujiu, what did that imply?

At this moment, Wang Wu suddenly had a feeling, the Snake Guard Mark in his bloodline that hadn’t changed for a long time seemed to want to pulse, but it couldn’t rise, directly suppressed by the Five Elements Spirit Array.

In fact, the more it struggled, the more severe the suppression became.

He didn’t even need to release the Level 11 Dominating Divine Techniques, just through Blood Qi Circulation, he could easily erase it, keeping the good and eliminating the bad.

Because now with his strength, he indeed could erase the Snake Guard Mark.

But Wang Wu thought for a moment and didn’t do so, instead, he released the restriction, letting the Snake Guard Mark activate slightly and resonate.

Because he wanted to see what was going on?

In a moment of thought, Wang Wu tunneled back underground thousands of meters deep, but at that moment, the Snake Guard Mark resonance suddenly broke off.

The signal was a little weak.

He had to drill back out again, silently and seamlessly entering the river, and this time the signal was unexpectedly good.

So that’s it, it had something to do with this river.

Wang Wu’s heart moved, allowing the Snake Guard Mark to fully activate, finally, a figure appeared before him, surprisingly a familiar face, Little Snake Aqing.

Wang Wu was stunned, while opposite Aqing was also full of joy, taking deep breaths several times, then whispered softly, “Where are you, is it safe around you, have you been well over the years? Don’t rush, you must be careful, don’t trust anyone…”

Aqing rambled on for a long time, then suddenly remembered something, somewhat embarrassed, she said, “Sorry that I lied to you before, I’m not a Snake Guard, I’m the granddaughter of the Snake Emperor, speaking of it, you have to call me Aunt, but please believe me, neither my Aunt nor I ever wanted to harm you, can you give me another chance, I can come to support you…”

“It’s unreachable, the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance has now sealed the border, Xiong Wu has already missed the best opportunity to evacuate.”

A familiar voice suddenly sounded nearby, Wang Wu’s eyes widened, holy crap, wasn’t this that brat Five Poison?

Sure enough, in the next second, a familiar head leaned over with a complex yet strange expression, who else but Five Poison.

At this moment, Wang Wu even wanted to immediately close the Snake Guard Mark.

However, Five Poison seemed to have guessed his thoughts, “Xiong Wu, you’re this afraid of me? You want to run the moment you see me, even if you don’t believe anything, at least hear me out.”

Wang Wu was silent, he really wanted to know why, but well, since they’ve already broken out of prison, former grievances and grudges, there’s nothing much to fuss about.

“Go ahead, I’m listening.”

Five Poison still carried that strange yet complex expression, but now with a touch of smugness, shouting to the distance, “General Xuelang, come over and say to your little husband, no matter what we say, this little bear won’t believe, only you can tell him.”

What!

Wang Wu nearly exploded, gosh!

The next second, General Xuelang had already lunged over, crying uncontrollably, and Wang Wu was stunned for several seconds.

“Xiong Wu, I’m fine, I’m really fine now, Bu Er moved my statue here, we broke out following Lord Shen Wu, and then the Stone Demon senior helped me dissolve the petrification… Five Poison, Yue Mountain, Shi Liu, and Unbreakable, Niu Huanxi, Pork Belly, they’re all here, all still alive, along with your Companion Demon Vine… how are you now? I met your Madam Yu, should I let her talk to you?”

“And, there’s one more thing, I don’t know whether it’s good or bad news for you, She Shoujiu, it’s still alive, but it’s no longer She Shoujiu, it’s the Snake Emperor’s fourth daughter…”

“We’re all fine, you don’t need to worry, you must live, you must live…”

“Okay, okay, General Xuelang, Xiong Wu is still in the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance’s territory, the Snake Guard Mark can’t be kept open for too long, you’ll have plenty of time for catching up later, now, let’s get down to business. Hey, Xiong Wu, don’t look at me like that, what’s wrong, can’t I Five Poison reform? My dad Lu Wuchen is here too, when he recovers, I’ll have him apologize to you, how about that?”

Five Poison came over, ushering General Xuelang away, then sat upright,

“Right, you don’t need to doubt or worry whether this is a scam, it’s pointless, time is tight, I’ll keep it brief, but please you must trust us, or at least pretend to trust us once, okay?”

“Five Poison, perhaps it’s better I talk to him, after all, I’m his real uncle…” A voice suspected to be Yue Mountain’s sounded nearby.

Gosh!

You filthy bastard, what are you saying?

“No, don’t provoke him, this needs calmness, not suddenly throwing all the surprises out, that becomes fright, Aunt, wouldn’t you agree?”

Five Poison grinned, looking in another direction.

And from there, She Shoujiu’s unique hoarse and aged voice immediately resonated, “Indeed, for instance, if I stood there right now, this little bear would probably think he’s under the hallucinogenic poison of the Great Illusion King Insect.”

And at that moment, Wang Wu was already numb!

Truly numb!

Really, he suspected he had fallen into the hallucinogenic poison, a First-Grade Great Illusion King Insect, however, he would rather this be an Illusion Realm.

Even though Five Poison and Yue Mountain, these two discordant symbols, appeared in this Illusion Realm, he truly didn’t care anymore.

And Five Poison was still laughing, laughing wildly.

“Xiong Wu, I understand your feelings at this moment, but we still need to talk about serious matters, firstly, let me introduce myself, my father is Lu Wuchen, my mother is the Snake Emperor’s second daughter, and as for your great-grandfather Xiong Pi, he married a concubine, that being the Snake Emperor’s eldest daughter, I call her Aunt, so actually, you should call me Uncle-Grandpa, come, good grandson, call Uncle-Grandpa to hear!”

Wang Wu listened quietly, unmoved, but this time, he actually believed a bit, for no other reason, only because the old Snake Emperor, seemed not so bad.

Or maybe it was because, he was numb, it didn’t matter whether it was true or false anymore.
