Chapter 627: Winning, Secret Cultivation, and the Woman

Inside the great hall.

Wang Jianqiang looked at Mu Lao, appearing somewhat agitated, his Spiritual Power surging uncontrollably.

His entire body radiated a faint glow.

Making him appear extremely sacred.

"Right now, everyone is fighting desperately to protect Wenxian City, to protect their own world."

"As a member of this world, as a member of Wenxian City, I have the same responsibility; there is no distinction between high and low, noble and base."

Upon hearing this, Mu Lao could not help but feel a sense of awe, "Master Wang has great righteousness; this old man admires you."

Wang Jianqiang withdrew the glow from his body and waved his hand nonchalantly, "Mu Lao is too kind; Wang is merely doing what ought to be done."

Having said that, he turned resolutely.

And walked out of the great hall.

"Master Wang, you have just finished repairing the Array; why not rest for a moment before going?" Mu Lao asked hurriedly upon seeing this.

Wang Jianqiang paused his steps and shook his head at Mu Lao, "No need, or else I will suffer a great loss."

Hm?

Mu Lao was stunned, "What do you mean by suffer a loss?"

Wang Jianqiang coughed dryly, "What Wang means is, if I join the battle sooner, perhaps I can prevent more casualties."

"If I go late and let more cultivators of Wenxian City suffer casualties, wouldn't that be a great loss?"

"So that is how it is."

Mu Lao nodded, the admiration in his eyes growing even deeper, "Daoist Friend Wang is not only a person of great righteousness but also a person of great love."

"This old man is ashamed."

"Mu Lao is too polite; you sitting in command of the Array Department are also contributing to Wenxian City."

Wang Jianqiang smiled faintly.

He did not continue speaking.

He hurried out of the great hall.

Right now, in this Wenxian City, there are Humanoid Great Medicine everywhere.

If he goes late, the gains will decrease.

This is a loss he cannot afford to take.

Watching Wang Jianqiang's hurried retreating figure.

Mu Lao could not help but reveal a look of deep emotion.

"The character of this Master Wang is truly rare in this world; no wonder the previous City Lord Linglong supported him so much back then."

"To think I was even in opposition to him before; I am truly damnable!"

The front courtyard of the Array Department.

The guards felt the significantly enhanced power of the Array within their bodies.

Their expressions were filled with astonishment.

The City Protection Array seems to have been repaired!

Wait~

Mu Lao had only just taken Master Wang and the others to the core of the City Protection Array, and the City Protection Array was restored shortly after.

Could it be that Master Wang repaired it?

A shocking thought could not help but flash through everyone's minds.

Immediately after, they felt it was somewhat impossible.

It is already rare enough that Master Wang has such astonishing achievements in the Pill Dao.

How could he also be so formidable in the Array Path?

Everyone's energy is limited.

This is not a question of talent or lack thereof.

This is simply unreasonable.

It must be that among those who accompanied Master Wang, there is an Array Path prodigy.

Right.

Could it be that prodigy who repaired the City Protection Array when the Out-of-Boundary Cultivator attacked Wenxian City last time?

It must be.

Things of a kind gather together, and people are divided into groups.

A genius should be surrounded by geniuses.

It is very reasonable for a Pill Dao Prodigy like Master Wang to befriend an Array Path prodigy.

Just as this thought flashed through the minds of the guards.

A group of figures flew over.

"Open the Array, we are leaving."

Wang Jianqiang looked at the Array Masters of the Array Department.

Unlike those uninformed guards.

These Array Masters were very clear about Wang Jianqiang's ability in the Array Dao, so they naturally knew who had repaired the City Protection Array.

After hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, they nodded respectfully in response.

And then dared not delay.

Quickly activate the Array.

Watch Wang Jianqiang and the others depart.

After Wang Jianqiang and the others left, among the guards, the leading man looked toward a middle-aged man among the Array Masters.

A look of deep curiosity appeared on his face.

"Master Feng, presumably the person who repaired the City Protection Array is one of Master Wang's friends, right?"

"And also that Genius Alchemist who repaired the City Protection Array last time, right?"

"As the second person in charge of the Array Department besides Mu Lao, you must know who that Genius Array Master is, right?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Wanli raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, "Commander Yan, the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace has long since issued a strict order that the identity of that Genius Array Master must be kept confidential; I am afraid I cannot provide Clarification for Commander Yan."

Upon hearing this, a flash of embarrassment crossed Commander Yan's face.

Pfft~

On a street.

A figure flew backward, spilling blood along the way.

Wu Tan struggled to crawl up from the ruins of a collapsed building.

The color had already faded from his pale face.

Before Daoist Friend Wang left, he had gifted him many Pills and Desolate Source Liquid.

Relying on the gift from Daoist Friend Wang.

He finally broke through to the Fourth-tier Will Level not long ago.

He had intended to leave the Outer Realm Battlefield in the near future, return to his sect, and attempt the Spirit Transformation Stage.

To honestly be an ordinary Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator.

He did not expect.

Wenxian City would be attacked by Out-of-Boundary Cultivators again.

Unlike last time.

Although the last attack by Out-of-Boundary Cultivators was also very thrilling, the fighting all took place outside the city.

Cultivators like them with the lowest cultivation were not involved in the battle, and were actually the safest.

But now.

The battlefield was inside the city from the very beginning.

No one could avoid it.

He was just a Cultivator who had barely reached the Fourth-tier Will Level, and in this war, he was completely at the very bottom.

Participating in the battle would just be throwing his life away for nothing.

Out of this self-awareness, he had been carefully hiding.

Fortunately, his luck seemed good, and he had not been targeted by any Out-of-Boundary Cultivators.

He had luckily persisted until now.

However.

Luck could not always be on his side.

Just now, he was ultimately targeted by an Out-of-Boundary Cultivator.

The Out-of-Boundary Cultivator who targeted him was a Sixth-Order Will-Level Cultivator.

Although suppressed by the City Protection Array, the opponent could only exert Fifth-Order Will cultivation, while his own cultivation was boosted to the Fifth-Order Will Level under the effect of the City Protection Array.

Both sides' cultivation was pulled to the same level.

But the gap in talent between him and the opponent was too great.

Even with equal cultivation, facing the opponent, he still had no ability to fight back at all.

After just a brief moment of fighting, he was severely wounded by the opponent.

Just at this moment.

That Out-of-Boundary Cultivator attacked him again.

He looked at the rapidly approaching figure, his expression filled with despair.

Just at the instant the Out-of-Boundary Cultivator's attack was about to land on him.

A sharp Sword Light flashed by.

The Out-of-Boundary Cultivator's attack collapsed instantly, and their body was also split in two.

The sudden scene left Wu Tan stunned.

He subconsciously looked into the air.

More than ten figures came into view.

Immediately after, a look of amazement could not help but well up in his eyes.

Such beautiful female cultivators.

And...

So many!!!

He swore.

In his entire life, he had never seen so many beautiful female cultivators all at once!

"Daoist Friend Wu Tan, are you alright?"

Just at this moment.

A gentle voice suddenly came.

Wu Tan came back to his senses, looked at the leading position, and immediately revealed a look of surprise, "Daoist Friend Wang!"

Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded, "With your strength, wandering here is too dangerous. Go to the Array Department; once you arrive there, mention Wang's name, and someone will lead you inside."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Wu Tan was overjoyed, "Many thanks, Daoist Friend Wang."

Wang Jianqiang nodded, then flew away into the distance with the women.

Watching the backs of Wang Jianqiang and the others as they left, Wu Tan could not help but reveal a look of deep emotion.

As expected of Master Wang, his cultivation has become increasingly unfathomable.

Moreover...

He actually has so many stunning female cultivators by his side!

This is probably the personal charisma of a peerless genius...

Wang Jianqiang had just flown not far away with the group.

He suddenly stopped.

He looked down, revealing a strange expression.

"Senior Brother, what is it?"

Wang Yuyao looked at Wang Jianqiang in confusion.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Met an acquaintance again?"

Mu Lingxi's expression stirred, and she was somewhat eager to try, "Then let's hurry down and save them."

Wang Jianqiang chuckled.

"This one doesn't need saving."

"Daoist Friend, don't kill me, I don't want to die."

"If you are willing to spare me, I will do anything."

In a corner.

A beautiful-looking woman was looking pitifully at the Out-of-Boundary Cultivator not far in front of her.

She knelt halfway on the ground, her collar drooping.

The perspective of the Out-of-Boundary Cultivator standing in front of her was just right.

Looking at the woman's pitiful appearance before him.

This Out-of-Boundary Cultivator knew very well that now was not the time for pleasure, and wanted to behead her.

But for some reason.

In his subconscious, another thought was constantly disintegrating his killing intent.

In the end.

He could not suppress that thought.

Not long after.

Just as the Out-of-Boundary Cultivator was focused, the woman's palm suddenly pierced through his chest.

Then it shattered his Nascent Soul.

The woman pushed the Out-of-Boundary Cultivator's corpse away, tidied her dress, and was about to leave.

Suddenly.

As if sensing something, she looked up.

Then she saw a group of figures.

Her expression changed, and she subconsciously took a few steps back.

When she saw the leader among this group, she was suddenly stunned.

"It's you, Wang Jianqiang!"

Hearing the woman's voice, Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Fairy Xin Yu, long time no see."

The woman was none other than Xin Yu, that very realistic woman Wang Jianqiang met when he first entered the Outer Realm Battlefield.

When she first entered the Outer Realm Battlefield, Xin Yu's cultivation was at the Third-tier Will Level.

Now, she has already broken through to the Fourth-tier Will Level.

To be honest, this speed of cultivation is not slow for a normal person.

And she seems to have practiced a charm technique.

The reason why that Out-of-Boundary Cultivator could not control himself earlier was because he had fallen for this technique.

This Xin Yu is quite a ruthless person.

To kill the enemy, she uses every possible means.

Looking at her practiced manner.

She has probably used it many times before.

Wang Jianqiang could not help but marvel in his heart.

What a miserable ordeal~

"What do you want to do?"

Xin Yu looked at Wang Jianqiang vigilantly.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "Just a chance encounter, Fairy need not be so nervous."

After saying this.

He waved his hand.

And led the group to continue on their way.

Xin Yu narrowed her eyes slightly.

This Wang Jianqiang was perhaps a bit too arrogant.

Did he really think he was all that great?

To actually look down on her like this.

It was not as if she had never encountered people with talent no weaker than his.

Thinking of that gentle and refined young man named Ye Lingyun.

A strange look could not help but light up in her eyes.

Her meeting with Ye Lingyun had been in the wilderness of the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Once, when she encountered a crisis, Ye Lingyun suddenly appeared and saved her.

Ye Lingyun not only had extraordinary cultivation, but he was also humble and polite.

Compared to him, this Wang Jianqiang was far inferior.

Moreover, the greatest common ground she had with Ye Lingyun was...

Both of them detested Wang Jianqiang!

It was precisely because of this commonality that her friendship with Ye Lingyun warmed to a very deep level in a very short time.

It was just a pity.

Ye Lingyun had never returned after leaving the city half a year ago.

Thinking of this.

A look of worry could not help but flash in her eyes.

Immediately after.

She regained her focus.

This place was not somewhere to stay for long; she had to leave quickly.

Just as she was preparing to leave, a figure suddenly intercepted her.

Her expression changed.

She had no choice but to cast a Technique again to bewitch the opponent.

Just like before.

Taking advantage of the moment the opponent was distracted, she beheaded them.

Afterwards, she quickly tidied up the battlefield and left.

However.

Before she could escape too far, she encountered Out-of-Boundary Cultivators again.

And she encountered three of them at once.

Wang Jianqiang, acting out of the kindness of helping Xin Yu gain some tempering, began hunting Humanoid Great Medicine after helping Xin Yu draw away a few whetstones.

Their group flew wantonly through the city, slaughtering all the way.

They obtained a large number of Nascent Souls and had a bountiful harvest.

After most of the day.

The Out-of-Boundary Cultivators all retreated.

The battle officially ended.

In this battle, while the Out-of-Boundary side certainly suffered huge losses, Wenxian City did not gain any advantage either.

Especially...

In order to gather those sixty Spirit Transformation Stage cultivators who would damage their own cultivation, many Spirit Transformation Stage cultivators had their Souls shattered and died when they self-destructed their primordial spirits.

Nearly a thousand Spirit Transformation Stage cultivators fell, which could be called a heavy loss.

After the battle.

Wang Jianqiang specifically met with Yin Xuan.

From Yin Xuan's mouth, he learned about what had happened in Wenxian City during the time he had left.

The first piece of news was that Wei Yuan had never returned.

Regarding this, Wang Jianqiang's reaction was quite indifferent.

With his current status, even if Wei Yuan returned, it would no longer affect anything.

The second piece of news, however, piqued his interest.

That was that after he left, a formidable figure appeared in Wenxian City, named Ye Lingyun.

This person seemed to be born with a constitution that attracted hatred.

Not long after entering Wenxian City, he successively made enemies with several formidable figures.

Yet he remained safe and sound, surviving from dangerous situations many times.

His cultivation progress was even unreasonably fast.

In just a few short years, he had trampled all the cultivators who were his enemies under his feet.

However, just half a year ago.

An ownerless Spirit Flame appeared in the wilderness of the Outer Realm Battlefield.

Ye Lingyun went to compete for it.

It was said that he encountered a massive encirclement and slaughter by Out-of-Boundary Cultivators, and his whereabouts remained unknown to this day.

After Wang Jianqiang finished hearing the news about Ye Lingyun.

He pondered for a moment and shook his head.

The encirclement and killing by the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators should be able to make Ye Lingyun suffer quite a bit.

As for falling in battle?

That should not be very likely.

This kid possesses great fortune and will not die so easily.

Afterward, he did not chat much more with Yin Xuan.

After greeting him, he left the Outer Realm Battlefield with the women.

After returning to the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

He arrived at Nian Qinghe's residence at the first opportunity to report on his work.

After receiving the promise of the highest-grade reward from Nian Qinghe, he left satisfied.

One month later.

The reward was issued.

It was a full several tens of thousands of drops of Desolate Source Liquid.

However, Wang Jianqiang's current net worth is astonishing, and with the addition of these tens of thousands of drops, the improvement was not too significant.

Afterward, he returned to his residence to cultivate with focus.

Time flashed by.

Half a year passed.

Outside the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

A woman of extremely beautiful appearance arrived.
