Chapter 1282: Chapter 5: Thief of Heaven and Earth_3 Chapter 1282: Chapter 5: Thief of Heaven and Earth_3 There, a small amount of Chaos substance was also seeping throughâŚ
Seeing this scene, everyoneâs hearts couldnât help but grow heavier.
This great ordeal in the Little Cang World was far from over.
But facing these rifts, for the moment, there were no good solutions.
The group paused briefly and then swiftly flew towards Ice Daoist and Ji Lan, who were guarding the Teleportation Array below.
âLord.â
Ji Lan, seeing Wang Ba, hastily bowed in greeting.
âThereâs no need to be so formal, this timeâŚ
...
you did very well.â
Wang Ba was very satisfied with Ji Lanâs performance in the great battle and unexpected events and did not skimp on praise.
Ji Lan repeated his modest denials.
At this time.
Everyone became simultaneously conscious of something and looked towards the southeast.
They saw a figure enshrouded in surging Demonic Qi flying in their direction.

âA Demon Cultivator?â
Guan Ao and Qiu Zhongqiuâs expressions darkened slightly as a hint of severe resolve flashed across their faces,
âLittle demon, letâs kill him along with the rest!â
Only Wang Baâs face changed subtly, and soon a rare expression of joy emerged,
âItâs Junior Brother Shen!â
The person approaching seemed to see Wang Ba too and immediately quickened his pace.
Guan Ao and the others couldnât help but look at Wang Ba with puzzlement.
Wang Ba said with joy,
âThis is a Junior Brother with whom I had an intimate friendship during my early cultivation years.
After a twist of fate, he mistakenly joined the primitive Demonic SectâŚ
but he is the kindest and most upright person.â
After saying this, he couldnât help but fly up to meet the incoming figure.
Guan Ao, Qiu Zhongqiu, and the others were left exchanging glances.
Qiu Zhongqiu hesitated, then frowned and said,
âA Demon Sect cultivator with a kind heart?â
Hearing this, everyone glanced at each other, all showing a hint of doubt.
They were not those young disciples who had never left home.
If Martial Nephew Wangâs Junior Brother was just beginning Qi Refining or at the Foundation Establishment level, then it might be possible.
But the aura of the person approaching was palpable even from a great distance, almost at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm.
Being Martial Nephew Wangâs Junior Brother, his cultivation would have been extremely short.
To have the cultivation base he had without having performed Blood Sacrifices of many mortals was simply impossible.
Ling Weizi and Hu Zaixi exchanged glances, remembering that this person had seemed to have also taken action against cultivators from the Kingdom of Immortals and hesitated.
Nevertheless, they decided to point it out specifically.
Qiu Zhongqiu shook his head slightly,
âHis previous actions were probably just a show, not to be taken seriouslyâŚ
Anyway, when thereâs a chance, weâll warn the Chief Division Master further, to avoid being used by others.â
Seeing the Shen-named Demon Cultivator arriving, everyone promptly knew to keep silent.
Wang Ba didnât notice any of this, currently busy grabbing Shen Fuâs arms and scrutinizing him.
Seeing Shen Fu was unharmed, after all close acquaintances had departed, he was truly overjoyed and momentarily didnât know what to say.
He just patted Shen Fuâs arm repeatedly, exclaiming,
âGood!
Good!â
Shen Fu, upon seeing Wang Baâs face, which showed a trace of sorrow, couldnât help but reveal a smile,
âSenior Brother.â
Wang Ba, ever so perceptive, immediately sensed the low spirits in Shen Fu and asked in a gentle voice,
âWhatâs wrong?
Are you troubled?â
Shen Fu was startled by the question and subconsciously looked down, then lifted his head, forcing a strained smile,
âNo, nothingâŚ
Old Devil Jiang, heâs gone.â
âBut Liang Qiuyu is dead tooâŚ
The Lifeline Defile Curse you gave me happened to trigger the Curse that he was afflicted with before.
Both occurring simultaneously, ultimately resulting in his demise.â
Wang Ba was stunned, then lightly patted Shen Fu on the shoulder, saying nothing more.
He had experienced the same feelings not long ago.
He understood.
So he knew that nothing needed to be said right now, and that was enough.
He then changed the subject, smiling,
âSince Liang Qiuyu is gone, and most of the Immortal Ascension cultivators in the primitive Demonic Sect have probably perished in the Thunder Tribulation, you are no longer restrained by the Demon Sect.
Why donât you come back to the Wanxiang Sect with me?â
Shen Fu was visibly moved by the proposition.
But as his gaze shifted, he saw two cultivators behind Wang Ba looking at him with a hint of scrutiny.
His heart tightened.
He was no longer the young, ignorant cultivator of the past; living in the Demon Sect had honed his ability to read people, and he instantly recognized the hostility in the eyes of the two cultivators.
He sighed inwardly.
The brief temptation he felt suddenly became calm.
He put on a smile,
âLiang Qiuyu is dead, but there are some treasures of his that I could make use of.
I plan to gather them, so Senior Brother neednât worry about me.â
Wang Ba was somewhat surprised, then furrowed his brows and advised,
âAlthough I didnât have much contact with Liang Qiuyu, the Sect MasterâŚ
once made a remark about him, saying he is capable of enduring and leaving behind contingencies.
Itâs best if you donât touch Liang Qiuyuâs possessions, in case he has some means of coming back to lifeâŚ
Junior Brother, wouldnât it be nice to return to the sect with me?â
Shen Fu smiled and declined Wang Baâs renewed invitation,
âOld Devil Jiang is gone, and I too wish to wander alone.
After so many years of cultivation, I have yet to freely experience this worldâŚ
When I grow weary, I will come and find you again, Senior Brother.
You wonât despise me then, will you?â
âYou little rascal must be itching for a walk,â Wang Ba joked, feeling something wasnât quite right but not dwelling on it.
He laughed and scolded, then took out some treasures for cultivation from his Storage Treasure and handed them to Shen Fu.
Shen Fu did not refuse; after some thought, he took out a Jade Slip, and imprinted all the cultivation key points he had gained from Liang Qiuyuâs memories into it.
