Chapter 900 - Chased Down… (1/2)

The power of his Emperor Armor was completely recovered, and his injuries had completely disappeared. As for his cultivation… it finally exploded forth at that moment. As his body trembled, sounds similar to cracks that one would hear when a mirror shattered sounded in his mind. Following that, an immense force that far exceeded the one from before rose from within his body. After spreading around his whole body in an instant, the aura it formed far exceeded the one he had exuded previously.

His cultivation broke through instantly, and from the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm, it reached… the perfected stage Spirit Immortal realm!

This made it so that Wang Baole burst out in laughter uncontrollably, his eyes shining brighter. He was about to continue rowing to see whether he could stabilize his cultivation a bit more when the paper human cutout beside him slowly raised its right hand.

As its right hand was raised, its meaning was implied. It wanted Wang Baole to return the paper oar.

Wang Baole hesitated, and after blinking, he spoke cautiously.

“Um… do you want to rest a little more, Senior? I can still go on!” As he spoke, he quickly rowed one more time.

“See, Senior? My rowing skills aren’t bad, right?” Wang Baole discovered that there was an ethereal glint in the paper human cutout’s eyes, and he shuddered a little. However, he couldn’t bear to give up this opportunity, so he gritted his teeth and displayed a sincere smile as he rowed again.

After he rowed this time, Wang Baole suddenly felt that his body was a little cold. The chilly feeling came from the paper human cutout. Of course, the gazes of the thirty or so chosen ones in the cabin were unfriendly as well. They contained jealousy, whether hidden or obvious, and the chosen ones seemed to really want Wang Baole to scram.

Such thoughts were very normal. It was the kind of mentality where if one couldn’t get something, they didn’t want others to get it either.

But to Wang Baole, they were a group of imbeciles. He didn’t care about them. Under the chill, Wang Baole was in a huge dilemma, but he was normally brave and vicious to himself, so he forced a smile and made himself maintain the sincerity he showed. In fact, he also seemed to be sucking up to the paper human cutout as he looked at him.

“Aiya, see, Senior, I didn’t row properly just now. Please correct my technique, Senior, and help me see where I need to improve.” As he spoke, Wang Baole gritted his teeth. He was already growling in his heart, and he secretly thought that brave people always fought to the death. So, he quickly rowed again. But just as he was about to try again… the ethereal glint in the paper human cutout’s eyes exploded forth, and he waved his raised right hand. Instantly, a powerful wave of force spread in front of Wang Baole like a storm and swept Wang Baole’s body out of the ethereal spirit boat…

Wang Baole wanted to struggle and even considered shouting. However, it all happened so fast that his body had already flown out before he could speak…

As for the paper oar, it flew into the paper human cutout’s hands. After he grabbed it, he no longer looked at Wang Baole. Instead, he stood there like when Wang Baole saw him for the first time, rowed with the paper oar, and slowly left.

Seeing that, Wang Baole instantly became anxious. He was very reluctant to leave the opportunity that rowing brought him previously. So, with a flicker of his body, he quickly gave chase and kept shouting.

“Senior, wait. I was wrong. Please give me a chance.”

“Senior, I want to board the boat.” Wang Baole unleashed his maximum speed and used all his might to shout, but the paper human cutout on the ethereal spirit boat ignored him, and the ethereal spirit boat got further and further away as he rowed with the paper oar. Wang Baole could only vaguely see that the chosen ones on the boat seemed to all turn their heads to look at him at that moment, a sense of delight in their expressions.

Those gazes made Wang Baole feel very unhappy in his heart. He felt that those people were too petty. When they couldn’t get an opportunity, they didn’t want to see others getting it either. As the ethereal spirit boat moved forward, it got blurrier and blurrier. Wang Baole sped and chased for a moment, but he sighed helplessly in the end as he gazed resentfully in the direction the ethereal spirit boat disappeared in.

I only rowed a few more times. It’s not like I could have broken the paper oar… When I refused to board the boat previously, you came multiple times just to get me to board. In the end, you even forcefully kidnapped me onto the ship… But now, you just kick me away like that? The more Wang Baole thought about that, the unhappier he became. But there was nothing he could do about it, so he sighed.

So be it. I’m a magnanimous man and won’t be petty over this anymore. Wang Baole patted his stomach and felt his current perfected stage Spirit Immortal realm cultivation. He quickly became happy again, though he still felt a little dissatisfied.
