But this time it really wasn't the Wu Monkey King's fault. He himself had not fully thought things through nor prepared well.
Under the influence of the external situation, he lost his usual composure and became somewhat disoriented.
The outcome was only natural.
Nevertheless, he couldn't help feeling disappointed.
After all, as long as the Wu Monkey King successfully advanced, he could head to the Linglong Ghost Market and receive protection.
What struck him as surprising, however, was that the failed-to-advance Wu Monkey King seemed to have realized something, a hint of loss appearing in his eyes in an all-too-human way.
However, he didn't let his disappointment continue. Instead, he found a place and once again began his meditative cultivation practice.
In his gaze, there was an inexplicable calm and firm resolution.
Seeing this, Wang Ba fell silent for a moment.
He walked up, gently patting the Wu Monkey King's head.
