Chapter 433: Ch-433: Chu Jingling and gaining Immunities
"You’re a girl?!" Wang Ming shouted in disbelief as he looked at the butt-naked woman crouching in front of him.
’Damn, how did I not realize? Her acting was too good!’ Wang Ming cried out inwardly. He regretted not using his special eye technique to check her stats, and due to her flawless acting, he hadn’t doubted her gender for even a mont. She could’ve won an Oscar on Earth if she beca an actress, he thought, then added silently, ’Tsk... she must have used a pill’
His eyes narrowed. Whoever could afford such an expensive appearance-altering pill must have a formidable background. Even though he was an alchemist himself—albeit a beginner alchemist in the system’s evaluation but he could still craft ordinary pills easily. But the kind of pill required to completely alter one’s appearance was far beyond his current capability.
"Stop staring at
like that, you pervert! Look the other way!" the woman scread, her voice trembling with embarrassnt.
Wang Ming’s lips twitched, and a mischievous glint appeared in his eyes.
"No, don’t wanna. What if I keep looking? What are you gonna do? Are you just going to keep squatting there? Besides, I’ve already seen everything," Wang Ming said in a teasing tone, noticing how her face turned crimson.
"Damn bastard! Look the other way!" the woman gritted her teeth, her face flushed with sha. When had she ever been in such a compromising situation before? Never in her entire life—and now, a man she had t only a few hours ago had seen her completely naked.
"Fine," Wang Ming said with a smirk, "say please."
"Fine! Please, look the other way," she grumbled through gritted teeth, and Wang Ming finally turned around.
Seeing this, she sighed in relief and hurriedly pulled out a set of enchanted robes, quickly putting them on inside the barrier.
"You can turn around now," the girl said softly.
Wang Ming turned back and raised an eyebrow when he saw her outfit.
"You’re a princess of the Black Bamboo Kingdom... like Wu Jing," Wang Ming said, noting the luxurious design and fine material of her robes — the kind only royalty could afford.
The woman stayed silent and grimaced, clearly unwilling to speak.
"Soul Eyes," Wang Ming murmured as her details appeared before his eyes.
[Na: Chu Jingling ]
[ Age: 28 ]
[ Cultivation: 1st Satge of the Golden Core realm ]
[ Occupation: Princess of the Flowing Petal Kingdom]
[ Physiques: None]
[ Bloodline: None
’Now it makes sense why she could casually hand out high-ranked techniques to her forr teammates and why she had access to such high-quality appearance-altering pills,’ Wang Ming thought. It all added up if she was truly a princess — though he still didn’t know much about the kingdoms outside his own.
"I see... Princess Chu Jingling, 1st Stage of the Golden Core Realm. So, why are you here in the Black Bamboo Kingdom?" Wang Ming asked in a teasing tone, noticing the disbelief and shock written all over her face.
"How do you know that?" the woman exclaid, her expression tightening as she grew visibly nervous at Wang Ming’s grin.
"You really want to know? There’s a price," Wang Ming said with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
She gritted her teeth but nodded — it was better to know now than risk a dangerous leak later.
"Guess," Wang Ming said with a smirk.
"..." Chu Jingling stared blankly at him, then her temper flared.
’Guess your mother,’ she cursed inwardly, glaring daggers at him.
Wang Ming didn’t say anything as he stared at the sea of raging fire before him. Taking a deep breath, he stepped forward.
"Crazy," Chu Jingling muttered, her eyes widening in disbelief as she watched Wang Ming walk straight into the flas without any protection. But before she could follow, she froze in place.
"Damn," Wang Ming frowned as his clothes burned away almost instantly. He scratched his head awkwardly as he looked down at his completely nude body, then turned toward Chu Jingling.
"!!!" Chu Jingling stiffened, swallowing hard as her eyes darted over his bare figure. Her gaze instinctively went lower, and her face turned scarlet as a single thought flashed in her mind — ’Big...’
’System, give
so new clothes,’ Wang Ming said quickly, and a new set of robes materialized on his body.
As he stepped forward again, he felt as though his skin was lting, but he gritted his teeth and pressed on. A new row of text appeared on his retina.

Wang Ming was in extre pain, his body completely charred black as he walked toward the end of the path. To his surprise, his efforts paid off — he had gained another immunity.
On the other hand, Chu Jingling was utterly numb.
’Heavens, what kind of physique does he have? How is he not dead?’ Chu Jingling cried inwardly in disbelief.
