Chapter 1881: Do You Like Jia Zheng?
"What’s the matter? Feeling itchy?"
Bai Xiaofan glanced at the Sixth Killing Soul beside him, who seemed eager to move, and asked indifferently.
"How could I? Would I really lay a hand on these youngsters? No matter what, I am now at the peak of the Heaven-opening realm. I would never, unlike that dumb wolf, brawl with a bunch of low-level cultivators!"
Hearing Bai Xiaofan’s words, the Sixth Killing Soul spoke righteously, as if Bai Xiaofan’s question had insulted his dignity!
To this, Bai Xiaofan just smiled without saying a word.
A moment later, the Sixth Killing Soul had already charged out, surrounded a few enemies in the Heaven-opening realm, and started a fierce beating, even more enthusiastic than Salca!
"Ruofei, do you see that old rascal over there? Dad tells you, that old rascal is very bad. You must never learn from him, or you’ll become naughty too!"
Bai Xiaofan took Ruofei from Liang Yue’s hands, gently tapped her nose, and spoke tenderly.
"The young master is so fortunate to have Master as a father!"
Standing by, Liang Yue, somewhat envious, spoke up.
"Xiao Yan’er is not bad either, at least he’ll have you as a mother and Jia Zheng accompanying him in the future!"
Bai Xiaofan smiled, knowing Liang Yue envied Ruofei for having a father.
"Master, what do you think of Brother Jia?"
Suddenly, Liang Yue raised her head and asked seriously.
"Not bad, he’s quite decent in handling matters, but sometimes his personality is too soft, lacking the boldness a man should have."
Bai Xiaofan slightly frowned and spoke truthfully.
Upon hearing Bai Xiaofan’s words, Liang Yue’s delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she fell silent, seemingly pondering over something.
These past few days, Liang Yue, following Salca’s example, had changed her address from Mr. Bai to Master.
Even though Bai Xiaofan indicated she didn’t need to address him this way, Liang Yue was insistent, so Bai Xiaofan let it go.
"Are you afraid now?"
Salca looked around, gazing at the crowd he had injured, and questioned loudly.
For these enemies who came to plunder, Salca did not kill them but chose to spare their lives!
"Scared, really scared!"
Hearing Salca’s words, a few Heaven-opening realm experts climbed up from the ground first and spoke respectfully.
Damn it!
They couldn’t believe that, in such a small village, they encountered an expert at the God Fragmenting realm!
Facing them at the Heaven-opening realm with God Fragmenting realm power—wasn’t this bullying?
At this moment, although they said they were scared, they couldn’t help but curse in their hearts. If they weren’t outmatched by Salca, they would definitely point at his nose and fiercely question him!
However, if Salca knew their thoughts, he would surely sneer!
"Tch, what’s so great about the God Fragmenting realm?"
"Do you see that guy over there holding the child?"
"Now, that’s the real tough guy!"
"From now on, you’ll follow me; of course, you can choose to refuse. The price is that I will chop off your heads with one move!"
Hearing these people say they were scared, Salca stood with hands on his hips, speaking arrogantly to everyone.
Chop off their heads?
Come on!
The crowd couldn’t help but roll their eyes; can’t you be a little gentle?
"We swear to follow Lord Sa to death!"
The crowd, who were so arrogant a moment ago, now obediently spoke to Salca.
They had no choice; this was a world where power was revered, and Salca’s strength far exceeded theirs. They had no choice but to obey!
After all, Salca had already stated the price of refusal, a price they couldn’t afford!
In this way, Bai Xiaofan’s subordinates instantly swelled to nearly a hundred!
Oh no, to be precise, Salca’s subordinates swelled to nearly a hundred!
The next day, under the leadership of Bai Xiaofan and Salca, the crowd continued towards Wuwang City!
Upon knowing their destination was Wuwang City this time, many people actually rejected the idea in their hearts!
Throughout the Demon Sea, who didn’t know that Wuwang City was the most dangerous place currently?
Almost all the experts of the Demon Sea were concentrated near Wuwang City. There, Heaven-opening realm cultivators were everywhere, not to mention the Sky-reaching realm. Even with one random slap, it’s estimated you could kill hundreds!
Even powerful God Fragmenting realm experts, such as Salca, might not be scarce there!
What they didn’t know was that Salca wasn’t an ordinary God Fragmenting realm but an absolute expert at the peak of the God Fragmenting realm!
Along the way, they encountered several waves of stray or robbing cultivators, but under Salca’s leadership, they were easily driven away!
Among them, Zhang Shan and others repeatedly faced life and death threats because Salca would never step in to save them unless they were at death’s door!
Indeed, many cultivators with not very high cultivation tragically died among them!
Originally accompanying Liang Yue was Jia Zheng, but upon seeing his companions fighting bloody battles around him, he couldn’t help but ask Bai Xiaofan to allow him to join the fight!
Thus, Bai Xiaofan threw Jia Zheng to Salca for proper training!
One might have thought Salca would show a bit of mercy to Jia Zheng for Liang Yue’s sake, but unexpectedly, Salca was not only unmerciful but increasingly harsh to Jia Zheng!
"Brother Jia is really setting himself up for suffering, isn’t he? The closer we get to Wuwang City, the stronger the enemies we encounter. His Deity Ascending peak level is becoming more and more inadequate!"
Watching Jia Zheng trapped and in grave danger amidst enemy attacks ahead, Liang Yue muttered with a bit of worry.
"Do you wish for Jia Zheng to be a man who hides behind us, not daring to charge forward at all? A man should charge like this. It is only after going through life and death battles again and again that one can be called a real man!"
Bai Xiaofan spoke calmly. In his view, only now did Jia Zheng look somewhat like a man!
As a man, one shouldn’t be timid and hesitant. If you think of doing something, just do it!
If you overthink everything, by the time you’ve figured it out, others may have already taken the lead, leaving you with nothing but scraps!
Especially in this cannibalistic world, it should be even more so!
"I don’t know; I just feel that Brother Jia’s current cultivation makes fighting these strong opponents very dangerous!"
Listening to Bai Xiaofan’s words, Liang Yue shook her head lightly, speaking softly.
"Are you worried about Jia Zheng’s safety?"
"Yes, ever since my husband died, it’s always been Brother Jia taking care of us mother and son!"
"Do you like Jia Zheng?"
"Ah? I... I can’t betray my husband!"
Liang Yue spoke in a flustered manner, as if Bai Xiaofan’s words had struck a chord in her heart, leaving her somewhat at a loss!
