Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 1194: Chapter 95 Starry Fight Chapter 1194: Chapter 95 Starry Fight As he walked out of the Rende Hall, Wang Ba’s heart still carried a trace of daze.

“Martial Uncle Song…”

His mind couldn’t help but recall the time spent serving as Right Enforcer in the Diwu Hall, where he strategized for Song Dongyang, coordinating the entire Diwu Hall’s twenty-five departments and their supplies.

Now, it seemed as though those memories were from just yesterday.

Reflecting on the special promotion granted to him by Song Dongyang, the care he had shown, and recalling the ‘unpredictabilities’ during his time in Chen State.

He couldn’t help but fall silent for a long time.

Beside him, Li Yingfu was also silently lost in thought, his eyes out of focus.

...

After a while, he suddenly spoke up, his voice hoarse,

“Chief Division Master, I would like to take a day off to go to Xingdou Peak…to see off Master Song.”

Wang Ba snapped out of his reverie and upon hearing Li Yingfu’s words, shook his head slightly, sighing,

“Let’s go together.

I was cared for by Martial Uncle Song, and it’s only right that I see him off on his journey.”

Li Yingfu nodded gently.

But the two of them had not yet arrived at Xingdou Peak.

Suddenly, Wang Ba came to a halt, his face showing a flash of surprise and doubt.

Although sad at heart, Li Yingfu noticed the expression on Wang Ba’s face, and asked in confusion,

“Chief Division Master?”

Wang Ba slowly exhaled and said solemnly,

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to go for now.

The Sect Master has summoned me.”

Li Yingfu was startled and quickly said, “If the Sect Master has summoned you, there must be urgent matters.

You should go ahead, Chief Division Master.”

Wang Ba nodded and, not daring to delay, immediately made his way toward Chunyang Palace.

…

Inside Chunyang Palace.

The polished, dark onyx stone floor was so reflective it could show one’s image.

But it didn’t have the slightest bit of the stone’s coolness, instead, it emitted a warm feeling.

It even made one’s mana feel more vibrant.

The faint whiff of incense smoke was quietly soothing Wang Ba’s slight worries and sadness.

Wang Ba stood with folded hands at the bottom of the steps.

He kept his head down, staring at the bricks on the floor.

All the while, he listened to Shao Yangzi and the new Hall Master of Rende Hall, Du Wei, converse, feeling slightly uneasy.

“The Sect Master has suddenly summoned me by personal message; I wonder what it’s about.”

“Is it because of the Chief Division Master position Xun FuJun arranged for me, or has my master already spoken to him about my situation?”

Although he had met the Sect Master a few times, they were always brief encounters, and his understanding of the Sect Master was very limited.

But judging from Master Yao Wudi’s character, who rarely spoke ill of the Sect Master, and the reverence others showed him, it seemed unlikely that Sect Master Shao would make things difficult for him as ‘Chief Division Master’.

“If it really doesn’t pan out, resigning from the position wouldn’t be too bad, and I can focus on closed-door cultivation.”

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly noticed that the conversation inside the hall had stopped.

“…Junior Brother Du, you may leave now.”

The gentle voice echoed through the great hall.

“Yes,”

Du Wei responded.

As he passed by Wang Ba, his footsteps faltered slightly.

Wang Ba then heard Du Wei’s telepathic message:

“Relax, this isn’t bad news.”

After that, he left the palace straight away.

Wang Ba was taken aback.

He also immediately realized there was something off about his own state.

“Indeed, my Cultivating Heart is not yet up to par.”

Wang Ba shook his head inwardly.

He then let out a long breath of turbid air, calming his heart gradually.

And soon after, he heard the gentle voice of Sect Master Shao:

“I heard from Wudi…

you’ve cultivated the Yin God Technique?”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba looked up, straightened his posture, and after giving a salute, he replied:

“Responding to the Sect Master, that is indeed the case.”

While speaking, his gaze assuredly swept over the figure seated before the incense burner, dressed in Daoist robes bearing the trigrams.

After decades of not seeing him, the figure remained untainted by the world, his countenance kind and gentle, much like that nurturing elder of the past.

Seeing Wang Ba look his way, he smiled faintly and gestured,

“Don’t be constrained, come closer, and speak in detail about the causes and consequences.”

Wang Ba hesitated for a moment, and considering that his master hadn’t specifically warned him, and seemed to trust the Sect Master completely, he went on to explain the origins of the Yin’s Great Dream Sutra and his conjectures:

“As a disciple, in earlier years, for self-protection, I cultivated this technique, then I encountered individuals from the Incense Fire Dao searching for…”

Aside from the details regarding lifespan, he relayed everything else.

Shao Yangzi pondered for a while and then suddenly said,

“Give me your hand.”

Wang Ba was startled but then walked forward and extended his hand.

Shao Yangzi flicked his duster.

Immediately, countless strands of the dust-removing silk wrapped around Wang Ba’s hand.

“Don’t worry, run your Yin God Technique at full force.”

Detecting a touch of nervousness in Wang Ba, Shao Yangzi reassured him with a gentle voice.

Wang Ba, feeling somewhat embarrassed, offered a shy smile.

Then he quickly spurred the power of his Yin God Technique into action.

He transformed his hand into a piece of Decay Wood.

In the instant of transformation, a fleeting surprise flashed through Shao Yangzi’s eyes, though it was hard to detect.

The duster strands swiftly enveloped Wang Ba’s arm and then his entire body.

Finally, they converged at the center of Wang Ba’s forehead.

“I’m about to inspect your Spiritual Government, don’t worry, just let down its defenses.”

Shao Yangzi instructed.

This time, Wang Ba didn’t hesitate at all, promptly letting down the guard around his Spiritual Government.

The reason was simple: with Sect Master Shao’s realm and cultivation base, even forcibly entering his Spiritual Government would be easy.

Seeing Wang Ba’s decisive action, a hint of admiration flashed in Shao Yangzi’s eyes.

His expression then grew solemn, and the Dust-removing Silk turned intangible and quickly penetrated into the Spiritual Government.

A few moments later.

The countless strands of Dust-removing Silk rolled back out of the Spiritual Government.

Shao Yangzi became inexplicably silent.

Seeing Shao Yangzi’s serious demeanor and lack of response, Wang Ba’s heart instantly tensed.
