Chapter 850: The Sect Master's Summons

One hour later.

Wen Ya walked out of the room, acting somewhat coy.

Three more hours passed, and Wang Jianqiang finished his "cultivation" and walked out.

Long Er muttered, whether intentionally or not, "To think a single session of cultivation would take so long; when will this debt ever be repaid? It's just too slow."

The voice was not loud, but it reached Wen Ya's ears clearly.

Wen Ya glared at Long Er, then said to Wang Jianqiang, "Junior Brother Wan, Long Er and I will head back first; we'll come find you another day."

As she spoke, she lowered her head, not daring to look at Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang smiled and opened a Space Channel; Wen Ya stepped into it first, as if fleeing.

After she walked into the Space Channel, Long Er gave Wang Jianqiang a thumbs-up with a face full of excitement, "Daoist Friend Wan, thank you for your hard work today; keep up the good effort another day."

Having said that, she teleported away from this space.

……

After the two of them left.

Wang Jianqiang was just preparing to cultivate when he suddenly sensed something.

His expression shifted, and he took out a Sound Transmission Talisman.

A Spirit Light flashed on the Sound Transmission Talisman, and a voice appeared in his mind.

Hearing the moving voice coming from the Sound Transmission Talisman, a righteous smile appeared on Wang Jianqiang's face.

He rose and left this space, flying toward the outside of the Beast Taming Sect.

After leaving the Beast Taming Sect, Wang Jianqiang continued to fly forward.

He did not land until he reached a large mountain several thousand miles away from the Beast Taming Sect.

"Master."

After he landed on the mountain, a Spirit Light flashed, and a figure appeared before him.

The person who arrived was none other than Yaoguang.

……

Five days later.

Yaoguang had a bountiful harvest, her foundation was purified once more, and she left in joy.

Wang Jianqiang, meanwhile, returned to the Beast Taming Sect.

In a Pavilion.

Wen Ya was sitting cross-legged in an elegant room, silently refining the medicinal power within her body.

At a certain moment.

All the medicinal power in her body was refined and absorbed; she slowly opened her eyes, and as she felt the Spiritual Power within her, which was much stronger than it had been over ten days ago, a flash of joy crossed her eyes.

As expected of a Perfect Pill, the effect is truly astonishing.

A mere ten-plus days of cultivation had brought a significant increase to her cultivation base.

Just as she took out another Perfect Spirit-Nurturing Pill, preparing to continue taking it for cultivation.

A burst of urgent knocking on the door suddenly rang out.

Wen Ya's expression shifted, and she put the pill in her hand away.

With a thought, the room door opened, and Long Er walked in, "Sister Wen Ya, let's go find Daoist Friend Wan to repay our debt."

"We owe Daoist Friend Wan so much debt, you can't be lazy, otherwise when will we ever finish paying it off?"

Wen Ya was startled, and her pretty face turned red instantly.

Because of the astonishing medicinal effect of the Perfect Pill, she had been immersed in the rapid improvement of her cultivation base recently and had actually forgotten to go repay the debt.

……

"Junior Brother Wan, I'm sorry, I was too immersed in cultivation and forgot about repaying the debt."

Upon arriving at Wan Guiyuan's residence and seeing Wang Jianqiang, Wen Ya showed an apologetic expression.

Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head, "Ya'er, you are being too polite; what debt or no debt? You can just set the time yourself whenever you like."

Wen Ya felt a warmth in her heart and nodded gently, "Junior Brother Wan, let's begin now."

……

One hour later.

Wen Ya walked out of the room.

Ling Er, who had been waiting in the hall the whole time, saw Wen Ya, and a perfectly measured flash of impatience crossed her face as she muttered again, "A single session of cultivation takes so long; when will this debt ever be repaid?"

Hearing this familiar complaint, Wen Ya glared at Long Er just as she had the last time, "You dead girl, if you think it's slow, why don't you come and repay it with me?"

Long Er's pretty face flushed red.

Seeing this, Wen Ya shook her head.

She knew how arrogant Long Er's personality was; asking her to do such a thing was simply making things difficult for her.

She and Long Er were like sisters; how could she make things so difficult for her?

The reason she said that was just to say it casually; she hadn't been serious.

Just as she was preparing to change the subject to give Long Er a way out, a voice containing a hint of shyness suddenly came.

"If we're going to repay it together, then let's repay it together."

Hearing Long Er's voice, Wen Ya was stunned, "Long Er, you..."

Long Er curled her lips, "I used the Perfect Spirit-Nurturing Pill too, so isn't it normal to repay the debt together?"

"Besides, we are sisters, isn't it only right that we share the joys and sorrows together?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Ya was moved, "Long Er, I know your heart, but it is enough for me to repay Junior Brother Wan's debt; I was just joking with you earlier."

Long Er shook her head and did not continue speaking.

After Wang Jianqiang finished "cultivating," she greeted him, and they left together.

Before leaving, Long Er cast an encouraging look at Wang Jianqiang once more.

……

After Wen Ya and Long Er left.

Wang Jianqiang frowned.

Nearly eight years had passed since he returned to the Beast Taming Sect from You City; Jiu You had once said that after he returned safely, she would come to find him.

Now that so many years had passed, Jiu You had not sent the slightest word.

This was very abnormal.

He pondered for a moment, preparing to make a trip himself to the western region of Youzhou to inquire about information regarding Jiu You.

Suddenly, he sensed the Restriction outside his residence being triggered.

With a thought, he opened the door to his residence.

Not long after.

A figure appeared before him.

The person who arrived had Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection cultivation and a Beast Taming Sect Deacon Token hanging from their waist.

"Greetings, Senior."

Upon seeing the visitor, Wang Jianqiang cupped his fists.

In the Beast Taming Sect, the status of a Core Disciple was not lower than that of a Deacon, and their future achievements would likely be above those of an ordinary Deacon.

A figure like Wan Guiyuan, who was among the best of the Core Disciples, could almost be considered a reserve for the sect's Elders, and might even achieve more.

Therefore, facing Wan Guiyuan, the visitor dared not show the slightest arrogance and hurriedly returned the salute politely, "Daoist Friend Wan, you are too kind."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded, continuing, "I wonder what brings you here this time, Senior?"

Upon hearing this, the visitor spoke, "The Sect Master has ordered that Daoist Friend Wan accompany me to see him; there is an important matter to discuss with you."

Wang Jianqiang's heart skipped a beat.

He was merely a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator; what important matter could the Sect Master have to discuss with him?

Could it be that he knows I did that thing to Long Er?

Or perhaps...

He knows I tricked Wen Ya?

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a bit uneasy.

Wen Ya most likely had a blood relationship with that old man.

Long Er's identity was also not simple.

If that old man really knew something, would he impulsively crush him to death?

Thinking of this, he subconsciously had the urge to send a message to Long Er for help.

Long Er had a powerful figure called Gui Shu backing her, whom Wen Tiansheng seemed very wary of.

If he had Long Er's backing, Wen Tiansheng might not necessarily be able to do anything to him.

Immediately after, he abandoned this thought.

He was currently inside the Beast Taming Sect; if Wen Tiansheng really wanted to deal with him, he had plenty of ways.

Would he need to go to such trouble?

It was likely there really was some matter he wanted to discuss with him.

Thinking of this.

He nodded, left the residence with the Deacon before him, and flew toward the tall mountain in the center of the Beast Taming Sect.
