Hearing Wang Zheng's confidence, both Nan Fengyi and Bai Shi were delighted.
They had considered approaching Wang Zheng, but Wang Zheng had already stated that the demon king's inner core he obtained from the capital was acquired at a great cost, thanks to his and Chu Tianxing's efforts in saving hundreds of thousands of people in Yunnan.
Even so, it's still uncertain whether they can actually get it. Moreover, Wang Zheng's purpose in exchanging for the Demon King's inner core was quite clear: to treat Chu Tianxing's brain injury.
As a Grandmaster of Extraordinary Beings, Nan Fengyi knew how important this brain core was to Extraordinary Beings.
Even if Wang Zheng really did manage to obtain the inner core from the capital, she simply couldn't bring herself to ask a junior for it at this moment.
Moreover, after hearing Wang Zheng casually recount how he had rescued Chu Tianxing from the clutches of a group of demon kings, the two of them already knew how strong the relationship between the teacher and student was.
Although Wang Zheng spoke lightly and mentioned it in a single sentence, these two are not ordinary people and naturally know the significance of his words.
Upon hearing Wang Zheng say that he had a solution, the semi-reclusive grandmaster thought that Wang Zheng was going to give her the inner core he had exchanged for. At this moment, Nan Fengyi was so excited that she didn't know what to say.
Her instincts told her to refuse; she knew she shouldn't take advantage of someone like that, but as a mother, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
This selfish sense of guilt was so overwhelming that even this extraordinary master found it difficult to cope, and in the end, she could only turn to her husband for help.
While Master Bai thanked Wang Zheng for the information and help, he still politely declined, saying:
"If Principal Chu recovers by then and there are still the remaining Demon King's inner cores, then my wife and I will shamelessly accept them."
But if even Principal Chu himself doesn't have enough, then no matter what you say, Wang Zheng, we will resolutely not accept it.
Seeing her husband's decisive refusal, Nan Fengyi let go of her stubbornness and nodded her thanks to Wang Zheng.
"Wang Zheng, I appreciate your kind words, but as you said, Xiao Bai's situation is far less urgent than Principal Chu's injuries."
This demon king's inner core was obtained by you at the cost of your lives in Yunnan; we cannot accept it.
We're already very grateful to have received this information. I'll figure something out later. At worst, I'll apply to go to the northern battlefield and exchange my battle merits for an inner core—that's not out of the question.
Seeing that the two had misunderstood and were so principled, Wang Zheng couldn't help but feel ashamed of his own cleverness. He then took the initiative to explain:
"You two don't need to feel guilty. I'm just acting as a middleman. I'm not giving you my own inner core. You don't need to guess. The truth will come out in time."
Seeing the two still looking puzzled, Wang Zheng directly asked the question that had been on his mind.
"Actually, I have another question I'd like to ask Aunt Nan. When you awakened your cultivation technique, did you inherit any other memories? For example, the identity and characteristics of this divine beast, or something like that..."
Nan Fengyi shook her head helplessly when she heard Wang Zheng so abruptly change the subject, but she remembered Wang Zheng's good intentions nonetheless.
Then she spoke calmly:
"No, there's only this one extra cultivation manual; there's no other information."
Wang Zheng thought about it again and realized that if all the memory information had been awakened, then Aunt Nan's materialization progress wouldn't have been stuck at 90%.
Seeing Wang Zheng frowning in thought, Nan Fengyi asked, somewhat puzzled:
"And what about you? Logically speaking, you've already entered the cycle of creation and transformation once, so haven't you awakened any memories?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zheng's eyes lit up.
'Yes, I couldn't explain the inside information I knew before, but I can now.'
Just say you received fragments of memory during the creation of heaven and earth, that's all. You'll have to cover up what you told Yan Hao you had no memory...
Having figured out the key point, Wang Zheng immediately said:
"It's hard to say for sure; it seems like I have it, but it also seems like I don't."
In that instant of transformation, it was as if some information that had never existed before was suddenly stuffed into my mind.
However, the information obtained from it is very mixed and chaotic, not only difficult to see clearly but also completely illogical.
Moreover, I can't tell if it's real or fake, or whether it's my imagination or real fragments of memory, but thinking about it carefully gives me a splitting headache.
I suspect it might be related to the fact that I entered an incomplete world of creation. Hopefully, things will improve once my spiritual power grows stronger..."
While pretending to make things up, Wang Zheng couldn't help but act it out. He pounded his head in frustration and said dejectedly:
"However, the inheritance for people like us only appears after we've reached the pinnacle of visualization practice and unleashed the [Creation of Heaven and Earth]. Your situation is somewhat special; you might have a similar experience again after you've cultivated to a certain level..."
Upon hearing Wang Zheng's deduction, Nan Fengyi nodded in agreement.
Since this cultivation technique appeared in her mind, she felt that her cultivation speed had increased a lot. Especially after she became extraordinary and the phantom of the divine bird replaced her Dharma form, Nan Fengyi could hear the phoenix's cry echoing in her ears from time to time.
She believed that as long as she continued to cultivate, she would one day be able to unlock the secrets of this technique.
When Wang Zheng saw Nan Fengyi's serious expression, he was secretly astonished. "I was just saying it casually, and you actually took it seriously."
In the Heavenly Court hierarchy, the official positions of the Four Symbols and the Nine Luminaries are the same, right? Will Wu Huan awaken this unique skill after his cultivation improves in the future?
Thinking of this, Wang Zheng felt excited again.
It seems that I should take better care of my classmates after school starts. After all, in this dangerous world, it won't do if we don't become stronger as soon as possible.
Besides, he hadn't given away the few Queen's Dews he brought back yet, and he was just thinking of them.
'I'm such a kind person!'
Wang Zheng thought so.
Wang Zheng then had an in-depth conversation with Nan Fengyi about her transformation into a divine beast.
To be honest, Wang Zheng had some ulterior motives. He was quite curious about the technique, because he would feel uneasy if he didn't take a look at something so powerful.
So he shamelessly thought of:
'It would be great if I could get Aunt Nan to let me observe that technique, but asking directly would be too abrupt. Perhaps I should be more subtle and bring it up indirectly?'
