Chapter 991 - 991 38 Living Soul_4

Chapter 991: Chapter 38: Living Soul_4 Chapter 991: Chapter 38: Living Soul_4 Ji Lan’s body shook violently in an instant, “You, you mean to say…”

“Yes, this outer disciple, his name is also Wang, Ba!”

The elderly man stared at Ji Lan, enunciating each word deliberately.

“How, how is this possible?

How is this possible?!”

Ji Lan couldn’t help but murmur to himself.

The Cultivator surnamed Gao was equally shocked, but then he showed a skeptical expression and said,

“Martial Brother, aren’t you stretching it a bit too far?

Just because of a name, to associate him with our Sect.”

The elder replied calmly,

“Based on the name alone, of course, we cannot confirm, but he also knows about Elder Qin and Ye Lingyu.

Tell me, if he is not a person from within our Sect, how could he possibly know about that?”

The Gao surnamed Cultivator, upon being questioned, was also taken aback.

But immediately, he frowned and said,

“But…

How long has it been?

This outer disciple, we don’t remember him, and his cultivation base must not have been outstanding at the beginning.

In just a few decades, he’s achieved the Golden Core?

And even the Wanzhou School is so polite to him…

Martial Brother, I still find it unlikely, Sect Master, what do you think?”

At this moment, Ji Lan was deeply shaken, but hearing the words of the Gao surnamed Cultivator, he still tried to calm his own emotions.

He said gravely,

“Junior Brother Hui, without conclusive evidence, do not make wild guesses, and certainly, do not make irresponsible remarks!”

The Cultivator surnamed Hui’s face tightened slightly, and he nodded,

“Yes, don’t worry Sect Master, I understand the propriety.”

And Ji Lan quickly sorted through his thoughts, instructing,

“Regardless if he is that Wang Ba or not, right now he is the person with the influence.

Since he has let us stay, we shall follow along, and nothing else should be said.

If he really is that Wang Ba, it was we who abandoned him then, and it is we who are in debt to him…”

However, the Gao surnamed Cultivator couldn’t help but interject, “Sect Master, Martial Brother, if he truly is a disciple of our Sect and left us here intentionally, perhaps he is planning to help us through this crisis!”

“Perhaps.”

Ji Lan sighed and looked towards the distant banyan tree.

…

“When Master Wang has the time, remember to visit the Wanzhou School more often.

Our Wanzhou School is like your other courtyard, Master Wang, you are welcome anytime!”

A warm and enthusiastic smile once again filled Wang Haitong’s face.

His smile also carried a hint of reluctance.

It looked as though the two shared a profound rapport.

Wang Ba, however, just smiled faintly and nodded,

“For what I asked Master Wang to do earlier, thank you for taking the trouble.”

“Rest assured, Master Wang, it was but a trifle matter of some rent money.

With a single word from you, naturally, there would be no problems!” Wang Haitong said cheerfully.

Wang Ba nodded slightly, then stepped into the carriage.

Lou Yi said politely,

“Master Wang, please wait.”

After speaking, he lightly flicked the reins.

The carriage quickly flew off in the direction from which it came.

Watching the carriage depart, Wang Haitong and a group of Elders stood still, watching it disappear into the distance.

In Wang Haitong’s eyes, there was genuine reluctance.

Where else could one find such a generously spending big shot in the future?

He truly wished that Master Wang would choose to reside in the Wanzhou School permanently.

Meanwhile.

The carriage had just flown out of the Wanzhou School’s protective Formation when it stealthily halted.

Three figures were standing outside the Formation waiting, and seeing the carriage, they hurriedly flew over.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted.

Wang Ba looked at the three people in front of him and smiled,

“Sorry to have kept the three of you waiting.”

“Not at all, we too have just finished our tasks,”

Ji Lan hurriedly said.

But at this moment, his heart inexplicably harbored an awkward sensation.

Not knowing the other party’s identity before was one thing, but now that he knew the person before him might be a disciple from the East Saint Sect of the past, he, as the Sect Master, felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

The Gao surnamed Cultivator and Elder Hui both felt similarly.

Utterly complicated.

Wang Ba, of course, was unaware of the turmoil in their hearts, and without any intentions to beat around the bush, he got straight to the point,

“I want to know, has Qin Heng completely possessed Ye Lingyu?”

“Ah?”

All three were extremely astonished.

They had thought of all sorts of reasons why Wang Ba might have kept them here, but they had not expected him to ask this question.

Yet upon hearing this, the trio’s expressions became tangled and complicated.

After a slight hesitation, Ji Lan still asked Wang Ba a question in return,

“May I ask, Master Wang, what is your relationship with our Sect’s Ye Lingyu…?”

“Impudent!”

Before Wang Ba could speak, a sharp rebuke suddenly came from inside the carriage!

Immediately, an astonishing aura burst forth from the carriage!

Ji Lan’s pupils constricted in an instant!

“Nascent Soul!?”

With a thought, he instinctively vanished from the spot, and in the next moment, he appeared a short distance from the carriage, holding onto Gao surnamed Cultivator and Elder Hui, as wary and fearful as if facing a deluge or a wild beast.

From within the carriage, Wang Ba canted his head slightly,

“Enforcer Li, it’s all right.”

A respectful voice immediately came from within the carriage,

“Yes.”

At this moment in Ji Lan’s heart, the world had turned upside down!

Nascent Soul!

This Wang Ba, only at the early stage of Golden Core, could actually command an Immortal Master of Nascent Soul!

What on earth was his identity?

Could Junior Brother Hui’s speculation be possible?

Initially, he had some hope for Junior Brother Hui’s guess, but having seen this scene, his heart began to waver.

At this time, Wang Ba turned his head back again, his expression calm as he looked at Ji Lan,

“Martial Uncle, you haven’t answered my question yet.”

Even though the other party’s aura didn’t seem particularly strong,
