Cultivation : I'm an Ancient Giant Bear-Chapter 521 - 494: A Terrifying Little Story

Wang Wu did not respond to Xu Taiping’s words.

But he could somewhat capture some of Xu Taiping’s thoughts.

As a Tier Nine Earth Immortal, he could become the Lord of the Frost Domain, even if half of the title was empty, it was still quite remarkable.

Otherwise, just look at Lu Tong who is at the Taiyi Sixth Tier, Zhuang Bufei, Feng Muhai, both at the Taiyi Fifth Tier, Qu Shenglian at the Taiyi Fourth Tier, and those five under Shuang Liuyun who are all at the Taiyi Fifth Tier.

They all have higher strength, more experience, deeper knowledge, and their loyalty is beyond reproach.

Do they have the qualifications to become the Lord of the Frost Domain? 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

To be blunt, theoretically, Shuang Liuyun is the most suited to be the Lord of the Frost Domain.

This contrast is too great.

So great that even Xu Taiping’s usual composure was shaken.

Of course, he believed he would adjust it well.

Sure enough, after Wang Wu remained silent for a few seconds, Xu Taiping had already adjusted his mindset.

He put away his smile and respectfully saluted Wang Wu.

"My lord, please forgive me, I lack knowledge. If my reckless words have offended you, please be understanding. If you wish to hold me accountable, I would have no complaints."

Wang Wu looked at Xu Taiping, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

"Ignorance is no crime."

"Thank you, my lord!"

Xu Taiping bowed again and hurried away without lingering.

Wang Wu stood there for a long time before shaking his head with some distress. To be honest, he never really took the title of Lord of the Frost Domain seriously. It wasn’t that he saw the power as fleeting, but he thought it was just a facade, and the Frost Monarch surely had plans, so he just needed to play along.

He absolutely had no intention of treating the Frost Domain as his own.

But now, suddenly, he felt something was off.

Shuang Liuyun, being the Frost Monarch’s sister, was clearly driven by some emotions, including making things difficult for those who came for training like him. Perhaps the problem originated with him.

After all, if Wang Wu were Shuang Liuyun, he too couldn’t understand, why!

Was your Brother Shuang an idiot or just numb?

Leaving the position of Lord of the Frost Domain to an unknown, not even human Little Bear, instead of trusting his own Taiyi Seventh Tier sister?

Frost Monarch, you are incredibly bold.

Wang Wu really couldn’t understand.

But he had already tried his best to refuse, what could he do if the Frost Monarch didn’t agree?

Huh?

It’s so quiet around here.

Where are those pesky dragons, why aren’t they whispering anymore?

Did you all become mute as soon as Shuang Liuyun returned?

"Lord Wang Wu, Elder Liuyun invites you to a feast!"

At this moment, a Taiyi Fifth Tier appeared in the distance, after solemnly saluting, he spoke loudly, his demeanor was very proper and appropriate, so this was his impending collapse of a journey?

Wang Wu sighed in his heart and followed.

After passing through several Immortal Arrays, the Taiyi Fifth Tier suddenly turned and disappeared.

When Wang Wu arrived, he saw a circular space resembling an arena, but its diameter was only three hundred li, here it was no different from a prison.

Casually toss the Eternal Immortal Sword here, and Wang Wu would be beaten screaming.

And, unfortunately, Shuang Liuyun was standing in front, holding the Eternal Immortal Sword that Bailu used. So, is this your Immortal Sword, playing dirty huh!

Wang Wu stood firmly, contemplating the possibility of being taken down by Shuang Liuyun.

Because if he were Shuang Liuyun, he’d probably think, is this Wang Wu just a pretty face kept by the Frost Monarch? Might as well kill him first, after all, we’re sisters, what can my sister do, kill me? At most, give a few smacks, hmm, that sounds quite feasible.

"Are you scared?"

Shuang Liuyun’s voice came from afar.

"Naturally, I’m a Tier Nine Earth Immortal facing a Taiyi Seventh Tier, it would be odd not to be afraid."

"I find it odd if you’re scared. Since you decided to conceal your identity, why not blend in, don’t you know that to vanish among the crowd is the best disguise? You came in so flamboyantly, as if afraid I wouldn’t notice you. If I still couldn’t guess who you are, I might as well be living in vain."

"Because I’m truly here for training!"

"Oh, you are sincere indeed. You know my sister’s path is sincerity, so you’ve learned it as well?"

"Sorry, I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"Tell me, is my sister planning to take back this Spirit-Catching Ship?"

"I still don’t know what you’re talking about."

"Three ’don’t knows’, interesting. Do you know I can kill you right now? I bet my sister won’t say anything." Shuang Liuyun sneered.

Wang Wu paused for a moment, choosing his words carefully. He didn’t want to anger Shuang Liuyun. He hadn’t known beforehand that his sister would be so shocked. Clearly, there was nothing between him and the Frost Monarch. Ah, damn it, using this explanation is in itself a great insult to the Frost Monarch and to him!

He only wanted to marry Qingxue, what did it have to do with the Frost Monarch!

"Elder Liuyun, I think you might have really misunderstood something? Or, perhaps you don’t really know your sister? You are both extraordinary people. If you look at yourself or your sister with ordinary perceptions, would that not be biased?"

"Biased? Are you truly naive, or are you mocking me? Do you know, unless my sister rescinds the order, theoretically, the only reason you, a Tier Nine Earth Immortal, are on my Spirit-Catching Ship, is because you want to seize control of the ship!"

"Do I have that much authority?"

Wang Wu was stunned.

Shuang Liuyun merely sneered, refusing to answer.

"Alright, I think this is all a misunderstanding. How about this, I will leave immediately, how about that? I swear, I’m only here to gain experience; I have no other intentions. Zhuang Bufei, Feng Muhai, and Qu Shenglian can all vouch for me."

Wang Wu’s words seemed to further anger Shuang Liuyun.

"Do you even understand what it means to be the Lord of the Frost Realm? Do you think it’s child’s play? Do you know what this position signifies? My sister, at Taiyi Eighth Tier, about to become Half-step Daluo, how could I misunderstand her, accuse her of keeping a pretty boy?"

"You’ve tarnished this position, look at you. I’m not saying you’re wrong, but you don’t understand the status of the Lord of the Frost Realm. Just by having that title, even I would have to bow and greet you, but look at what you’ve done? You’ll just make the Frost Realm a laughingstock!"

"And even now, I still don’t understand, what are you after? Or were you manipulated by Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhai? You must explain to me clearly what you did, or today I really might kill you."

Wang Wu blinked, looking at the furious Shuang Liuyun. Alright, it seemed he had misunderstood the situation. He thought for a moment and then said, "Zhuang Bufei, Feng Muhai, they didn’t manipulate me, they are pretty decent people. Zhuang Bufei especially, seems honest and sincere. Feng Muhai might not show emotions much, but when joking around, he’s actually easy to get along with. As for Qu Shenglian, sorry, she’s not exactly my type, so I can’t comment. Overall, they’re quite alright."

"As for what I’ve done, maybe I’ve done some things beneficial to the Frost Realm, just minor contributions, nothing worth mentioning. On the contrary, Lord Frost Monarch has saved me several times..."

"I always thought there was no one available in the Frost Realm... that’s why I’m temporarily acting as Lord of the Frost Realm. Once Lord Frost Monarch recovers, she’ll naturally appoint a new candidate."

Wang Wu was speaking the truth, but listening to him, Shuang Liuyun’s expression grew increasingly complex and peculiar.

"My sister is really injured?"

"Huh? You really didn’t know!" Wang Wu was quite surprised this time.

"Why should I know? The Spirit-Catching Ship chases the Twenty-four Solar Terms, a small cycle every five hundred years, a large cycle every five thousand years. During that time, we often only communicate with the outside world once every five hundred years. Moreover, due to time constraints, we often don’t learn much directly. So, in a sense, the Spirit-Catching Ship’s journey of five thousand years is currently the most suitable, stringent, and effective cultivation journey in the Cultivation Realm, without parallel."

At this point, Shuang Liuyun’s tone also calmed down, "It’s been five thousand years since I last saw my sister, so can you tell me how she got injured?"

"It’s because the Hidden Origin Association acquired a damaged Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower, intending to repair and refine it into the Zhenyuan Tower. Lord Frost Monarch made contributions during this process, was promoted to Second-Grade Elder, but later got injured when handing over the Vermilion Bird Array Soul. That’s about all I know."

"Did you help her during this process?" Shuang Liuyun suddenly asked.

"Just a trivial bit of help, it was my duty, really."

"Is Lu Tong not dead?"

"Uh, I don’t know, I don’t even know Lu Tong." Wang Wu shook his head decisively.

Shuang Liuyun sneered, with a wave of her hand, the arena disappeared, and she and Wang Wu found themselves in a quiet courtyard, though she now held a jar of Immortal Wine in her hand.

"You’d better tell the truth. I guess you might recognize this Immortal Wine. It was brewed personally by my sister, infused with her Path of Sincerity. Once you drink it, you’ll answer anything asked. You don’t want me to force you, do you?"

Shit!

The Frost Monarch had to cultivate something like the Path of Sincerity!

Wang Wu’s expression changed slightly, and he obediently sat down, confessing earnestly, "Yes, Lu Tong isn’t dead. I was the one who saved him, using the technique of substitution, not worth mentioning."

"Where is he now?"

"Reincarnated, it seems he comprehended the Dao Domain. His Path of Vastness made great progress; reincarnating would be a waste if not."

"I see!"

Shuang Liuyun felt somewhat wistful, seemingly holding a different sentiment towards Lu Tong.

Good grief!

However, before Wang Wu’s gossiping heart could ignite, Shuang Liuyun casually said, "Do you know my five Tier Five Taiyi subordinates?"

"Yes."

"Pretty powerful, aren’t they?"

"Of course!" Wang Wu couldn’t figure out Shuang Liuyun’s intentions.

"But did you know, the five of them together wouldn’t be a match for Feng Muhai."

"Uh..."

Wang Wu didn’t know what to say, although he suspected it was probably true because Feng Muhai was indeed formidable.

"And did you know Zhuang Bufei could beat Feng Muhai soundly?"

"Ah?"

This time Wang Wu was truly shocked. Could it be? Zhuang Bufei, with his honest demeanor, didn’t seem that formidable!

"And did you know a single Lu Tong could defeat ten Zhuang Bufei!"

Wang Wu was already on edge, feeling like he was listening to a terrifying ghost story!

But Shuang Liuyun continued calmly, her gaze intently on him.

"And did you know how my sister once defeated Lu Tong to the point of collapse, making him vow to the Dao to change his ways and subsequently switch to the Path of Vastness?"
