Chapter 425: Chapter 34 Surprise_4
“Wang Ba?”
At those words, Tang Ji paused, seemingly recalling something. Then, his eyes sparkled with surprise:
“You… don’t tell me you are from that Tianmen Cult in the Chen State… the one skilled in raising Spirit Chickens?”
Now it was Wang Ba who was taken aback.
“Elder Tang knows me?”
“Of course, I had previously visited Chen State…”
At once, Tang Ji recounted his experience in the Chen State, excluding anything related to his sect and the ‘Membrane Eye’.
Upon hearing that the Tianmen Cult was almost entirely decimated, with the Sect Hierarch Ning Daohuan and all Golden Core Craftsmen dead, and the remaining followers fleeing in all directions, Wang Ba couldn’t help but freeze.
His emotions were thrown into disarray.
He had thought about the demise of the Tianmen Cult.
Even imagined that one day, when his Cultivation Base bloomed, he would return to the Tianmen Cult and decapitate Ning Daohuan and Lu Yuansheng.
But truly hearing of the Tianmen Cult’s annihilation, not just the little gossip he had heard from others before… it felt surreal.
“So, you are indeed from the Devil Cult…”
Tang Ji also regained his senses, his brows slightly knitted.
Zhao Feng suddenly spoke at the side:
“Elder Tang, you can’t blame the junior brother for this.”
He then began to recount Wang Ba’s hardship from his humble time at the East Saint Sect.
Although his storytelling skills left a lot to be desired, his sincerity and frankness shone through.
Listening to Zhao Feng’s story, Tang Ji’s gaze towards Wang Ba softened, showing a hint of surprise.
He didn’t expect Wang Ba to have such a complex past.
In just three to four short decades, he had experienced far more than many cultivators half their lives.
Despite facing such deprivation, he stayed true to himself and managed to achieve his current level.
He was reminded of the previous scene where Wang Ba and Bu Chan had fought against a Golden Core cultivator.
Breaking the silence, Tang Ji said,
“Don’t worry, I, Tang, am not prejudiced. I hold no grudges for the past.”
“Besides, it is our sect’s negligence that allowed a devil cult like Tianmen to infiltrate…”
Remembering this, his thoughts landed on Senior Brother Yao, who was in charge of keeping the peace in the Chen State.
It was this old fellow, who was negligent and unconcerned about his duties, allowed the East Saint Sect to be destroyed by external devil cults, and consequently affected Wang Ba, then an insignificant character.
Now, this same old fellow had travelled a great distance just to recruit Wang Ba as a disciple.
Such were the unpredictable ways of fate. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Shaking his head, Tang Ji set the sentiment aside and turned to the matter at hand, saying to Wang Ba,
“Wang Ba, the reason why I’ve called you here is because there is a matter involving your dao partner that you need to address.”
Wang Ba was momentarily stunned.
He was only supposed to be treating an injury. What else is there to decide?
He immediately asked,
“May I ask, Elder Tang, has something happened to Bu Chan?”
“No, not at all. She’s perfectly safe.”
Realising that his attitude had led Wang Ba to misunderstand, Tang Ji quickly shook his head to correct it.
“Then what needs my decision…”
Wang Ba was somewhat confused.
Seeing the puzzled look on Wang Ba’s face, Tang Ji couldn’t help but smile:
“A matter of joy.”
“Do you know… your dao partner is pregnant?”
“Huh?!”
Wang Ba stood there, rooted to the spot, in stunned silence.
