Chapter 160 Ch-160: Wang Ming meets the Princess
"What is she doing here?" Wang Ming mumbled to himself as he recognized Feng Mei as the daughter of the true sect leader and the one he took his entrance test with.
"The other woman looks like royalty," Wang Ming muttered and activated his technique to check her identity.
[ Name: Feng Mei]
[ Age: 25 ]
[ Cultivation: 1st stage of the Core Formation Realm]
[ Occupation: Disicple of the Yang-Yin Sect, Daughter of the true Sect Leader]
[ Emotion: Angry, Sad
Reason: She is currently in despair, fully aware of the fate that awaits her if she falls into the hands of this bandit group. She is determined to die fighting rather than facing such a humiliating scene where she gets toyed by these bandits.
]
[ Physiques: None]
[ Bloodline: None]
[ Name: Wu Jing ]
[ Age: 27 ]
[ Cultivation: 4th stage of the?Core Formation Realm]
[ Occupation: Princess of the Black Bamboo Kingdom ]
[ Emotion: Angry, Sad, Worried
Reason: She is angry at herself for being weak and regrets not listening to her father. She feels she should have already activated her Yin Physique. She is also upset that she dragged Feng Mei with her. If she hadn't invited her to join in their travels, maybe Feng Mei could have avoided this situation.?]
[ Physiques: True Yin Physique ]
[ Bloodline: None]
"Woah, first a sect leader, and now I'm meeting a princess; moreover, she has a Yin Physique," Wang Ming mumbled to himself. He had met the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword and now encountering royalty, a princess, surprised him a bit.
"System, what does she mean by activating Yin Physique, and how does it activate?"
[System Message: The way to activate the true Yin Physique, which will instantly increase her cultivation, is to Dual Cultivate with a man. The best scenario would be if she Dual Cultivates with someone who has a Yang Physique, and she would instantly reach the 1st Stage of the Golden Core Realm at the very least.]
"Oh," Wang Ming became interested but won't make a move unless she is the one who approaches him.
Wang Ming silently began to observe the unfolding drama. He sneered when he saw the princess trying to use her identity to threaten, and Hei Jun attempting to entice some of the guards. He noticed some of them wavering, and he was sure that they would betray the princess when he heard Hei Jun offering them a chance to savor the princess and Feng Mei. He sneered again when he saw most guards betraying the loyalty they had.
"Looks like she's in trouble," Wang Ming noticed the pill and knew what kind of pill it was from the knowledge he gained in alchemy from the system. He saw the princess getting engulfed in pink mist, and he knew she was in trouble.
"Huh?" Wang Ming was dumbfounded when he saw a lackey charging at him with killing intent.
'Why the hell is he charging towards me?' Wang Ming thought in his mind as he looked at the approaching lackey.
"Get ready to die!" the lackey shouted as he approached closer to Wang Ming.
"Why the hell are you attacking me? I didn't even do anything," Wang Ming said, narrowing his eyes.
"Shut up! Now that I got a close look at you, your handsome face annoys me. Just die, bastard!" the lackey scowled when he saw Wang Ming's handsome face, comparing it to his own plain look, which further angered him.
'Oh, I see, another jealous person,' Wang Ming thought in his mind as he narrowed his eyes.
"Heavenly Sword Art - First Form - Flickering Strikes!" A fierce glint shone in Wang Ming's eyes, and an overwhelming sword intent flashed from his body, the result of his merged Physique Heavenly Sword Body, which made his first form stronger. Wang Ming disappeared from his place and arrived in front of the lackey, who was still in mid-air, causing the lackey's eyes to shrink.
"Wai-" Before he could utter a single word, Wang Ming chopped his body into pieces, and the meat landed near the group ready to commit a sinful deed.
Wang Ming then landed in front of the group under their shocked gaze.
"Who the hell are you? How dare you kill someone from the Dark Bandit group?" Hei Jun said angrily. At first, he was alarmed at how easily the lackey was killed, but sensing Wang Ming's cultivation lower than his, he regained his confidence.
"Huh, Wang Ming?" Feng Mei muttered. She did not expect to see him here of all places and in this situation.
"Senior Feng Mei, huh, I did not expect to see you here. I heard from your mother that you were looking for me," Wang Ming said with a mischievous smile, which caused the girl to blush even during this situation. She could guess her mother told him that she was pondering whether to take Wang Ming as her partner.
"Feng Mei, who is this?" Wu Jing asked in a whisper while keeping her eyes on the bandits.
"This is Wang Ming, a disciple of the sect," Feng Mei introduced.
"It's a pleasure to meet you," Wang Ming said with a polite smile. The princess eyebrows twitched a bit, observing how calm he remained in this situation, especially when looking at Hei Jun's angry expression
"Is this your Dao Companion, and you have come to save her? It won't matter," Hei Jun was furious that someone was ignoring him and openly flirting with the woman he desires.
"You are a weakling. I have an idea. I will break your legs and make you watch while every one of us enjoys her," he said, feeling the temperature turn cold.
"Shut the hell up, your breath stinks," Wang Ming said as he removed his concealment, revealing his true cultivation. Everyone's eyes widened, and even Feng Mei was shocked.
"1-10th Stage of the Golden Core Realm," Hei Jun nervously swallowed as he sensed Wang Ming's cultivation.
Wang Ming didn't waste any time and activated his technique, disappearing from sight.
"W-Where did he go?" Wu Jing asked with a stutter in her tired voice. She gripped her sword tightly upon sensing Wang Ming's cultivation. However, her eyes widened when she saw him suddenly vanish without a trace. The bandits and guards were also sweating nervously, falling silent.
"Where did he—" Hei Jun began to speak but suddenly froze, along with everyone else.
"Alright, done," Wang Ming said casually as he reappeared, startling both women.
"Wang Ming, what do you mean by 'done'? How did you disappear and reappear all of a sudden?" Feng Mei asked.
"Yes, why are they all frozen?" Wu Jing added softly, realizing Wang Ming had no ill intentions toward them.
"Oh, they're dead," Wang Ming informed casually.
"What do you mean by dead?" Feng Mei asked, and suddenly, all the guards and bandits, including Hei Jun, fell to the ground in pieces.
"Heavens," Wu Jing stammered, shocked by the gruesome scene. Feng Mei, though not as surprised, was still taken aback. She had witnessed a powerful technique from Wang Ming during the exam, but this was on another level.
'What kind of technique did he use? It should be at least above a heaven-rank technique. Maybe he can help me with that,' Wu Jing pondered. The royal family possessed a heaven-rank technique, but she was certain that an ordinary disciple couldn't possess something as formidable as what she had just witnessed.
"Thanks for your help," Wu Jing expressed genuinely.
"And you are?" Wang Ming inquired, though he was already aware of her identity.
"I'm Wu Jing, the princess of the Black Bamboo Kingdom," she introduced herself with a friendly smile.
"Pleasure to meet you, Princess. I'm Wang Ming," he replied casually. This response surprised Wu Jing, as most men would usually fawn over her for personal gain. Wang Ming's different approach not only caught her off guard but also left her with a pleasant impression.
"I never expected to come across a princess in a place like this. If you don't mind me asking, what brought you here in the first place?" Wang Ming inquired with curiosity, given her royal status and the abundance of resources at her disposal.
"I was actually traveling through the kingdom, and I stumbled upon this secret realm. I entered hoping to find an opportunity to boost my strength for an upcoming tournament," Wu Jing explained, surprising Feng Mei.
"You're entering the tournament too?" Feng Mei asked in astonishment, knowing that Wu Jing didn't belong to a sect.
"Yes, I'll be participating in the tournament alongside representatives from other kingdoms. I also plan to join the disciples of the sect who pass the inter-sect tournament. I want to ensure that I reach a level where no one can accuse the royal family of favoritism," Wu Jing clarified.
" ~Ahhh~" Suddenly Wu Jing's body heated up her face flushed red and her breathing became heavy and she could some kind of itch in her nether region, she almost lost control of her body and let out an involuntarily moan from her mouth
