Chapter 151 - 136: There Must be a Reward, Gift (5000 Big Chapters) !
Wang Ba fumed with rage.
Upon hearing the commotion, Bu Chan hastily put down her dustpan and grabbed Wang Ba:
“You’ve been worrying about Shen Fu not coming back every day, but now that he’s back, why are you scolding him?”
Then she turned to Shen Fu, “Don’t bicker with your senior brother. He’s just overly excited to see you again.”
Shen Fu immediately shook his head: “I know my senior brother… huh?”
He watched with confusion at Wang Ba and Bu Chan, who were closely entangled, sensing inexplicably that something didn’t seem right between them.
“Ahem….”
Bu Chan also came to her senses quickly, pretending to be calm, and withdrew her arm from Wang Ba’s: “Well, I’ll go check if the chicken pot is ready.”
Shen Fu:…
Could you act any more guilty?
But Bu Chan’s reaction only strengthened his certainty that there was definitely a problem.
At this point, however, Wang Ba grabbed Bu Chan: “There’s nothing to hide anymore.”
He then turned to Shen Fu and said frankly:
“You must have noticed, she and I have agreed to be Dao companions. We were planning to tell you when you came back.”
Bu Chan’s face turned beet red, but seeing Wang Ba so straightforward, amongst the embarrassment, there was a unique joy in her heart.
Shen Fu was at a loss for words.
It wasn’t like this when he last saw them.
However, he had long noticed Bu Chan’s feelings for his senior brother, so it was not too surprising.
“Alright alright, let’s go, let’s have a drink!”
Wang Ba immediately pulled Shen Fu over and sat down at the table in front of the wooden house.
“I will make some dishes…”
Bu Chan quickly said.
“No need, I’ve already purchased some, let’s eat together.”
With that, he took out food boxes from his Storage Bag, and an array of delicacies filled the entire table.
Delicious food, fine wine, beautiful ladies, old friends….
All three of them were cultivators and could restore their sobriety with a simple mana spell, but they unanimously chose to let loose.
They drank to inebriation.
Wang Ba was flushed from drinking and leaned on the wall of the wooden house.
Bu Chan had a rosy glow on her cheeks, radiantly beautiful.
Drunk Shen Fu, whose originally fair face was also dyed red, staggered over to Wang Ba’s side.
Wang Ba, with bleary tipsy eyes, looked at Shen Fu and chuckled, “Hey kid, haven’t you passed out from drinking yet? Come, let’s have three more rounds!”
Seeing the puddle of wine beneath Wang Ba that could practically start growing fish, Shen Fu’s drunkenness slightly wore off. With an inward grimace, he unwillingly said:
“Senior brother…! can’t match your Herculean tolerance for alcohol.”
“By the way, I want to give you a gift.”
As he said this, he took a small box from his Storage Bag and placed it on the table in front of Wang Ba.
“A gift? What is this…”
Wang Ba reached out and opened the box in confusion.
He glanced at it, uninterested.
However, the moment he saw what was inside the box, his drunkenness vanished instantaneously!
“Is this… A Foundation Establishment Pill?!”
Upon hearing Wang Ba’s words, Bu Chan also sobered up immediately.
She looked in astonishment at the small box on the table and then at Shen Fu incredulously, “Is that really a Foundation Establishment Pill? Where? Where did you get it?”
This was what Wang Ba wanted to ask too.
He hastily sat up straight and took a few more careful looks, before quickly closing the box.
No doubt! This was a Foundation Establishment Pill!
Although he had never actually seen one before, he had specifically researched about the Foundation Establishment Pill when he first learned about it.
So, he could recognize it immediately upon seeing it.
But precisely because it certainly was a Foundation Establishment Pill, he was even more shocked.
This thing, even in the Tianmen Cult, there were many Stage X Qi Refining cultivators waiting eagerly for it. Shen Fu, a mere Stage IV Qi Refining cultivator, how could he possibly touch it, let alone obtain it?
“What exactly is going on?”
Wang Ba, alcohol-free at this moment, looked at Shen Fu seriously.
Shen Fu dodged his gaze but found that he could not escape Wang Ba’s stare. Finally, he met Wang Ba’s gaze and said sincerely:
“Senior brother, don’t ask the details. You can rest assured, this Foundation Establishment Pill is definitely safe.”
“The problem isn’t with the Foundation Establishment Pill but you!”
Wang Ba, both angry and worried, stared at Shen Fu and suddenly demanded: “Give me your hand.”
Shen Fu hesitated for a moment, but finally extended his hand.
Wang Ba touched his wrist with two fingers.
His expression quickly fell:
“Stage VII Qi Refining… Did you switch to the Demon Dao cultivation method?!”
Shen Fu was silent for a moment, then, “After I left, I got seriously injured and was forced to switch.”
Hearing this, Wang Ba didn’t know what to say, and he let out a sigh.
Then, to the astonishment of Shen Fu and Bu Chan, he hesitated for a moment before placing the Foundation Establishment Pill back in Shen Fu’s hand.
“Senior brother?!”
Shen Fu looked up at Wang Ba in surprise.
“I won’t deny that I want it, but considering you risked your life to obtain it, I can’t accept it. Moreover, with the way you’re advancing with the Demon Dao cultivation method, I’m afraid you’ll soon surpass me, and reach the peak of Qi Refining before I do. It’s easy to advance rapidly with Demon Dao method but hard to overcome certain difficulties. You need this Foundation Establishment Pill more than I do.”
Wang Ba sighed.
He actually needed this Foundation Establishment Pill just as much. If it were offered by anyone else, he would have accepted it without any hesitation.
But Shen Fu was who it came from, and more than likely, he had to risk his life to get this Foundation Establishment Pill, which Wang Ba found unacceptable. Moreover, in just a few months, Shen Fu had quickly advanced from Stage IV to Stage VII Qi Refining after switching to the Demon Dao cultivation method. With such a speed, even the formerly talented ‘Lin Yu’ of the Fairy Dao couldn’t quite compare..
