Chapter 437: Departure
The members of the Taihao Sect continued their journey northward. Wang Yi mentioned that Taihao Sect once had a territory in the north, but now it had become a retreat.
However, the current situation was not as urgent as before, and they appeared much more composed.
Wang Hong blended in with this group as they traveled northward. Due to the life-saving Pill he had provided to many members of the Taihao Sect, he was given a seat on the Flying Boat originally meant for the wounded.
At this moment, Wang Yi's Master, Feng Ji, showed signs of improvement in his injuries. He had now moved to the Flying Boat where Wang Hong was seated to express his gratitude.
"Junior Wang, thanks to your Pill, I still have my life intact. I owe you a great favor for this."
Feng Ji had a straightforward personality, showing no airs of a Golden Core cultivator.
"Senior Feng, your praise is too kind! I became a disciple of the Taihao Sect, and during my time here, I've received your care. It's only right for me to express my gratitude."
Wang Hong spoke sincerely, having heard from Wang Yi that his Master had been good to him. Now that they had met in person, Wang Hong had no doubts, especially since Feng Ji had even given his daughter to Wang Yi.
He couldn't help but wonder why Gu Qingyang didn't have a daughter.
"Wang Yi is my disciple, of course, I must take care of him! We're all one family now, so there's no need for you to be so formal with me, hahaha!"
Clearly, Feng Ji had already accepted Wang Yi and Feng Ai's relationship.
"Yes, yes, one family!" Wang Hong quickly agreed.
Just then, another Golden Core cultivator entered the Flying Boat and approached Wang Hong directly.
"Are you Wang Hong?" the Golden Core cultivator asked as he stood in front of Wang Hong.
"I am indeed. May I ask what brings you here, Senior?"
"I've come to find you for a specific request. I hope you can sell me a Jade Marrow Pill."
Wang Yi had joined Taihao Sect when he was less than ten years old, and under the sect's guidance, he had remained loyal to Taihao Sect.
Wang Hong understood the situation, even though he couldn't do much about it.
Luckily, Wang Yi had outstanding talent and a promising future. He wouldn't be used as cannon fodder. Otherwise, Wang Hong would resort to any means, even kidnapping Wang Yi.
"Also, this place is the best for practicing swordsmanship. Sword cultivators from all over the Cultivation World gather here to learn from each other. If we go elsewhere, progress in swordsmanship might be difficult."
"Brother, why don't you consider staying here? This place is excellent, and Alchemists are highly regarded here. With me looking out for you, no one would dare to bully you."
Wang Yi tried to persuade Wang Hong to stay in Taihao Sect.
"Alright, let's not persuade each other anymore."
In the end, Wang Hong gave in. He thought Wang Yi's choice was the right one. Staying in Taihao Sect meant having a Master to guide him and fellow disciples to spar with.
"Since I'm leaving, I'll leave you with some things. Don't open this Storage Bag for at least a month."
Wang Hong tossed a large Storage Bag to him, filled to the brim with supplies. This would sustain Wang Yi in his absence.
It might be many years before they saw each other again, so Wang Hong wanted to leave him with more than enough.
The contents of the Storage Bag were so valuable that even raiding a medium-sized faction wouldn't yield as much precious resources. It included two thousand pounds of third-tier Spirit Wine, which was measured by weight instead of by the bottle, unlike what other Golden Core cultivators would fight over. Wang Hong also left a hundred Jade Marrow Pills, enough to heal him a hundred times. Wang Yi shouldn't run into misfortune of that magnitude.
Besides healing pills, there were various cultivation resources, including Jade Ginseng Fruit, Dragon Scale Fruit, and Ink Jade Spirit Lotus. Additionally, there were many different kinds of spiritual objects. Even with exceptional talent, progress in cultivation could slow down without them, especially in the Golden Core stage.
After leaving these items, Wang Hong repeatedly reminded Wang Yi to keep them a secret, not even mentioning them to a Dao Companion, as it could bring about unwanted troubles.
