752 Wang Lu Will Soon Tower Over A Huge Ground (1/2)

Sun Buping's words raised a whiff of alarm in Wang Lu's heart.

It was not that he was worried that Sun Buping would harm him. If a grand Earth Immortal wanted to do something to him, he would've died without a burial a long time ago. Let alone, there was no conflict of interest between the two sides. Right now they were both on the same boat...

However, it was because of this that he needed to be more vigilant. Sometimes, the existence of a pig teammate (a person in the team who is unbelievably noobish or lousy and causes more trouble than the opponents) was the equivalent of having ten enemies. He thought that his action was good for you, but he didn't know that it would kill you instead.

The leader of the Earth Immortal camp, an outstanding talent of the generation who possessed both wisdom and bravery, was certainly not a pig teammate. But he might be worse than a pig teammate. In many cases, this kind of person did things without soliciting opinions from others. To say it nicely, his reaction was swift and decisive. But to say it bluntly, he was obstinate and self-opinionated.

When Wang Lu was a leader, he was also obstinate and self-opinionated. So, what he disliked the most was other people being obstinate and self-opinionated. When he interacted with Senior Gem Emperor, although the differences in cultivation base between them were worlds apart, he continued to strive to take the initiative, so that in the end, he occupied an equal position with her. But at present, before his eyes, this exceptional Earth Immortal Sun Buping, might not be willing to give him this opportunity.

Just as he thought of this, there was a blur in front of him. Sun Buping had appeared in front of him and reached out to point at the center of his two eyebrows.

”!?”

”Sorry, time is limited, so I have to tell you the story in this crude way.”

The next moment, Wang Lu's brain was flooded with thoughts.

Sure enough, it was another self-opinionated and obstinate man who would not listen to other people's words.

——

While still in a hazy state, Wang Lu began to hear Sun Buping's voice.

”I was born in a fisherman's home at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. Since I was young, I was spoiled by my family. Although my family was ordinary, I was carefree. When I was five years old, a cultivator from Kunlun Sect carried away by a whim, came down to my house to ask for a fish from Qingjiang River. Throughout my experience of fishing with my father, that fish was the first one that I caught personally. Although I was unwilling to let it go, the cultivator had asked for it, so I had to give it up. When the cultivator saw that I was unwilling to give it to him, he suddenly laughed and said, 'Today, I came down here on a whim. I just want to eat fish from Qingjiang River. I thought it was because my heart was surging with sentimentality and I couldn't forget my childhood's favorite. It turns out that fate had brought me to you.' After that, he took me up the mountain and accepted me as a disciple.”

”I started my career as a cultivator in Kunlun Mountain.”

”My Master was a loose cultivator. He came from Kunlun and used to be a brilliant genius. However, he was banished from the sect for breaking the rules. But because of his contribution to Kunlun Sect, although he was nominally banished, he still had a place in the sect.”

”My Master was a very interesting person. He taught me the immortal cultivation and even how to be a man. He said that he had no other achievements in his life other than the three that he was most proud of. The first was, he was curious. As long as something was objectionable to him, even if it was as big as the sky, he dared to face it. Second, he never admits defeat. Sometimes, his curious character provoked a powerful opponent. If he was defeated, he would redouble his efforts to cultivate until he could surpass the opponent. He has lost countless fights in his life, but not once he admitted defeat. Third, no matter how much trouble he caused, he still lives to the present. Then I understood why we are in a Master-disciple relationship. Because I am also a busybody who refuses to admit defeat. When I was five years old, I went fishing with my father exactly because I meddled in other people's business. I made a bet with the little bully from the village head's house that I can catch a fish in Qingjiang river. If I succeed, he must not bully and humiliate the small and weak relying on his father's status. If I can't… Ha, I have forgotten it, because in the end, I can do it.”

”Like my Master, I am a busybody who refuses to admit defeat. My cultivation talent is not very good. I can achieve what I have today, many are due to fate, so I'm not proud of it. I have cultivated for more than a thousand years and what I am really proud of is that I have never been blind to injustice, nor have I ever compromised due to my inferior strength… Of course, most of the credit belonged to my Master. Without him to escort me, I would've died because I didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. However, although Master could protect me for a while, he couldn't protect me forever. In the end, I finally provoked a gargantuan trouble.”

”I provoked a Fallen Immortal.”

”The existence of Fallen Immortals could be traced back to the Great Desolation Era. The corners of historical books are full of traces of their existence. It's just that people have always regarded them as a group of lunatics who have failed to ascend and have nowhere to go… Little did people know that their real body is actually the True Immortal, which was highly esteemed in Nine Regions. In fact, up to now, there are still people who do not want to admit this fact. They think ascending to immortality means being in a blissful land, and they refuse to admit that even in the immortal world, there's a risk of being corrupted.”

”This is a group of opponents that no one wants to provoke. For tens of thousands of years, even the records in history books are vague. It's only known that they occasionally go to the lower realm, and arbitrarily act in Nine Regions, like a hunter on a rapid hunting expedition, with disastrous consequences. Fortunately, this kind of thing is not frequent, perhaps once in several hundred thousand years. Unfortunately, I came across it when it happened.”

”And I.. have never been blind to injustice.”

”At that time, I was already one of the top experts in the world. Many people called me the Earth Immortal. But, in front of the Fallen Immortal, I was as vulnerable as a child. If not for my Master sacrificing his life, I would've died without a burial site at that time.”

”Master said to me before he died that I have to let this matter go. No matter what the Fallen Immortal did, I must not be impulsive, because no one will come to save me later.”
