Chapter 108: Travel to the Alternate World
Regardless of who the superior was, they would always be fond of more capable subordinates.
True enough, Jun Wen did not let the meaning of his name down.
He had a grand vision and good big-picture thinking; there might be some flaws, but don’t forget that he had just activated his human intelligence not too long ago.
These flaws didn’t mean a thing.
The only criticism for him was that he had been brainwashed by historical Chinese dramas.
What year was it now?
Saying ‘imperial women shouldn’t be involved in politics’ in this day and age? Ridiculous.
Never mind, I shall forgive him this time. I’ll make him contribute to the strengthening of the tiger species and devote his entire life to serving his King.No need to elaborate more with Silly Girl.
Just let her continue to see Jun Wen as a foe… so she will keep tabs on him and warn him occasionally to keep him in his place.
Intelligent life forms that have ambitions were rare and not to be underestimated; they also rarely allowed themselves to be subordinate to others.
In that case, Silly Girl would have something to do and could use him as a punching bag whenever; it would be a way to release her emotions.
Killing many birds with one stone…
However, some things that Jun Wen said were right. It was time to get ready for certain things.
Except that they lacked manpower. Only Old Third and Jun Wen could be considered as official subordinates; just two alone was way too little.
Why hadn’t Old Second and the other tigers broken through yet?Old Second was so useless.
He chided with disappointment and returned to the cave.
Without saying a word, he continued to help Silly Girl recuperate. After a while, he suddenly spoke coolly, “Baijun, two days later, I will be going out on a trip. I should be coming back soon if there are no mishaps. If there’s an accident…”
He paused, and Di Baijun also opened her eyes with shock. She frowned and wondered. What was this jerk planning to do?
She voiced her question coldly, “What are you planning to do?”
“I have agreed to a cooperation plan with China. We will be entering that alternate world in Hu County together. I will slay some creatures in the Divine Body Realm and use their blood and body as nutrition to nourish your body,” Wang Hu said calmly without hiding anything, as though it was a small matter.
Di Baijun felt bashful and unnatural; this jerk was so shameless.
However, she quickly frowned. “No need to. I don’t need those.”
“You need to listen to me so your body can recuperate better,” Wang Hu softened his tone and spoke gently.Instantly, Di Baijun wanted to jump up like a frightened cat and leave this place.
Unfortunately, the divine power on her back kept her in place.
Her face remained bashful and mad.
What did this jerk consider her as?
How about Big Treasure and Little Treasure?
That tone was so disgusting.
Wang Hu sensed under his hands that the soft body turned tense, and he smiled to himself. It had already been so long, and she was still the same.
He only just softened a bit, and she immediately fell into his trap.
His tone turned somber, and he continued to say, “That alternate world in Hu County is unusually strong. There are many cultivators at the Third Realm and there are even powerful cultivators at the Fourth Realm.
“No one knows what will happen, and I am not fully confident.“If an accident happens, just kill Jun Wen then leave together with Su Ling to find a quiet place and raise Big Treasure and Little Treasure.
“As for Old Third, you don’t need to care about him.”
Di Baijun became unable to care about anything else and said coolly, “Like I already said, I don’t need it.”
After completing her sentence, she appeared to have thought of something. She paused and turned to look at him and asked, “Why won’t I have to care about Old Third and just have to leave with Su Ling the fox?”
Wang Hu became speechless.
Was that the main point?
He made the alternate world in Hu County sound so dangerous and that he would be taking such a huge risk all for her sake.
She could have felt touched and said something nice… or even stopped him resolutely.When it was time, he would have left without hesitation, and when he returned, he would get himself injured so she could be so terribly touched.
If the conversation went on for a few times, wouldn’t it have made a perfect script?
Why mention Su Ling?
You are such a jealous lover. You don’t want me but still want to stop other women from wanting me.
How rubbish.
His thoughts drifted, and he lamented a couple of times before saying with a straight face, “Jun Wen is not loyal to you. If I am no longer around and you still kept him, he would be a danger to you.
“Old Third is not smart so just let him live by himself. Without me, no one really knows what he thinks.
“Su Ling is just a cowardly fox and probably would never go against you. Bring her along, and she can serve as a helper.”
Although he said those things to Silly Girl on purpose, the things he instructed were what he genuinely considered.
There was always an indeterminate possibility; who knew what would happen?
Di Baijun felt relieved and agreed that what this jerk said was right. In the next moment, she realized that it was not the time to talk about this.
Her voice became more strained. “I don’t need all that. You don’t have to enter at all.”
“I have already decided. Don’t worry, I will do my best to come back and see you, Big Treasure, and Little Treasure,” Wang Hu said resolutely, without any shame.
Di Baijun became mad and said through clenched teeth, “Jerk, do you understand what I even said? I said, this Noble One does not need it. You don’t have to go.”
“I said before that whoever wishes to hurt you and the children would have to kill me first.
“Although the situation is different now, the meaning remains the same. Baijun, don’t worry, I will make you recover soon,” Wang Hu said by himself, disregarding what Di Baijun had just said.
Di Baijun became extremely anxious and mad; this jerk existed just to make her angry.
She took a deep breath, calmed down, and spat out words, “Fine, tell me what I must do to make you not go?”
The corners of Wang Hu’s lips drew back by themselves. Why won’t you go on and continue to pretend to be unmoved? See, now you are worried about me.
He paused and spoke confusedly, “Baijun, why won’t you let me go?”
Di Baijun paused for a moment, and her gaze faltered. She huffed and said coldly, “I am weak right now and incapable of fighting. Big Treasure and Little Treasure require protection. No matter how useless you are, at least you can protect Big Treasure and Little Treasure.
“That alternate world is so dangerous. If you died, who would protect Big Treasure and Little Treasure?”
“Alright,” Wang Hu replied despondently, but his lips curled in his heart. As expected, this Silly Girl was incapable of saying anything nice.
Will it kill you to just say that you are worried about me?
He paid no mind to it since he had expected that from her.
He paused and spoke again, “Don’t worry, I will be fine.
“Even if something happened, with your might, Baijun, you should have no problem protecting Big Treasure and Little Treasure.”
Di Baijun was so mad that she almost snickered. “Jerk, can you not be so stubborn?”
“I can’t,” Wang Hu said without hesitation. He scoffed to himself and thought: Let’s see how much longer you can stand it. If I don’t make you feel so terribly touched while you are still weak, I would have lived my life as a tiger in vain!
Di Baijun was so mad that she refused to speak anymore; neither did Wang Hu. There were two more days; there was still ample time left to talk about the dangers of going to the alternate world and how much risk he would be taking.
‘Always let the good deeds that you have done be known.’ He had always believed in this.
In a blink of an eye, two days passed.
Early in the morning, after everything was planned and settled, Wang Hu was ready to go to Hu County. Before leaving, he helped Silly Girl to recuperate for a while.
After half an hour, he stopped and said, “I’ll be leaving. Don’t worry, I will be back soon.”
Di Baijun kept a cold expression and ignored him.
Wang Hu continued to say, “Although I am very confident, if something really happened, remember what I told you. Raise Big Treasure and Little Treasure and… take good care of yourself.”
After speaking, he turned and walked out of the cave, but his speed was not fast as if waiting for something.
However, even after he walked out of the cave, nothing happened.
Wang Hu was displeased. As I thought, novels and dramas are fake.
If not, Silly Girl would have chased after him, hugged him, and refused to let him go.
He shook his head and dumped the messy thoughts aside. He morphed into a ray of gold and disappeared into the south.
Inside the cave, after seeing that the jerk had left, Di Baijun’s cold expression seemed a little dejected. She had wanted to call out for him, but her mouth just wouldn’t open by itself.
Her thoughts became complicated and inexplicable.
She really didn’t want the jerk to go, but it seemed like she couldn’t stop him.
If something really happened to the jerk…
She clenched her fists tightly together.
…
Several kilometers away from Hu County, Wang Hu stopped and recovered his energy.
It had been quite tiring these past few days, and his divine power had not resumed its peak.
The hunt was soon approaching. Naturally, he wouldn’t let his guard down. He had to be at his best in all areas.
A few hours later, at one in the afternoon, he continued to fly to Hu County.
Around a minute later, he arrived at Hu County city, a county city that was now built into a war fortress.
Pieces of defensive equipment could be seen everywhere. In between them were numerous guns and cannons, and most of them were pointed at the world passage mid-air.
There was also a group of people who were already waiting for Wang Hu.
Their leader was Li Aimin.
Wang Hu touched down in front of them, and Li Aimin smiled. “Your Excellency, you have arrived.”
Wang Hu maintained his cold exterior and nodded slightly. He went straight to the point. “I am ready. What about your people?”
“We are also ready. We can begin anytime,” Li Aimin nodded and said solemnly.
“Then, let’s begin,” Wang Hu said coolly.
“Okay, Your Excellency, let me introduce you to Zhang Yuan. He will be bringing Your Excellency to hunt those chosen Third Realm cultivators.” Li Aimin immediately agreed and pointed to his side, at a heavily built man in his 30s.
Wang Hu looked towards the man and was caught by surprise.
This aura… it wouldn’t be long until the man will reach the Third Realm.
China already had a cultivator like this in such a short time!
It was not long ago that he broke through!
Just a few months…
As expected of China…
“Your Excellency,” Zhang Yuan nodded and spoke respectfully.
Wang Hu responded briefly and did not say anything else. He brought Zhang Yuan with him and proceeded to fly into the world passage mid-air.
When he exited, he saw a forest with no end in sight.
The spiritual energy was incredibly dense!
Wang Hu remained alert to his surroundings and briefly exclaimed to himself. If he could cultivate here, his cultivation speed would definitely be many times faster.
Then, he figured it out. China must have sent many people into this world to cultivate. Zhang Yuan must be one of them.
“Your Excellency, we better not stay here. Let’s go to our destination as soon as possible,” Zhang Yuan spoke.
