"Brother Bai, you must be very careful in the future. Don't take risks all the time. What will Sister Ziyuan and I do if something happens to you?" Ling Xin'er said, hugging Bai Ke. Su Ziyuan also agreed.
"Hehe, silly girl, who doesn't go through life-and-death trials to become a great cultivator? Do you think everyone is like you?" Bai Ke said, pinching Xin'er's nose.
"Don't mock me, I'm very capable too!" Ling Xin'er said fiercely, clenching her fists, but her appearance was completely harmless.
This caused Bai Ke and Su Ziyuan to burst into laughter.
To Bai Ke's surprise, Ling Xin'er and Su Ziyuan got along so well, like sisters, which made Bai Ke very happy.
"You big bad guy, you kidnapped Sister Ziyuan, and you'll be sorry if someone else does!" Ling Xin'er said viciously.
Bai Ke suddenly looked at Ling Xin'er awkwardly. Zhao Xueqian had even asked him to go to the Tide Gate to find her...
Ling Xin'er noticed that Bai Ke's expression was a bit off.
"Oh my god, it hasn't been long, and look, Brother Bai has already provoked another woman! Tell us who he is!" Xin'er and Su Ziyuan said angrily to Bai Ke.
"Um, her name is Zhao Xueqian," Bai Ke said somewhat awkwardly.
"Zhao Xueqian? Wait? Isn't that the Tide Saintess! You big bad guy, you've hooked up with her after only meeting her once! Humph! You'll be on your own these days. Don't even think about coming to see me and Sister Ziyuan. Sister Ziyuan, let's go." Ling Xin'er angrily pulled Su Ziyuan away.
"Xin'er, Ziyuan, let me explain!" Bai Ke said hurriedly. Su Ziyuan and Ling Xin'er had already flown away.
"This..." Bai Ke touched his nose, feeling quite helpless.
"Little sister Xin'er, are we really going to ignore Brother Bai?" Su Ziyuan asked doubtfully.
"Hehe, just to scare him. Otherwise, what would we do if that big bad guy flirted with a woman every day?"
"I said playfully."
“Xin’er, you’re so smart! You’re right. Let’s ignore him for a few days, hmph! Let’s make this big bad guy furious! Come on, let me tell you about the interesting things I’ve encountered in the Tian Long Ba Bu small world these past few days,” Su Ziyuan said.
"Okay, okay, I want to hear it!" Ling Xin'er said excitedly. The two women walked away hand in hand, happily leaving Bai Ke alone in mid-air, completely bewildered...
"Young master, why are you standing outside the door all by yourself? Where are Miss Xin'er and Miss Ziyuan?" A-Can asked in confusion.
"Uh, I let them leave. I have things to do. What are you doing instead of practicing your skills?" Bai Ke said seriously.
"Young Master is indeed a young master. Ah Can is truly impressed. You are not moved by women at all. No wonder you have such a high level of cultivation! You are truly..." Ah Can said with admiration.
"Alright, alright, stop flattering me. This is all I should do. Take as many pills as you like from now on. Just focus on improving your strength and get back to cultivation," Bai Ke interrupted A-Can, blushing slightly.
"Oh, by the way, Elder Feng Yu and Elder Lin Yun are here to see you and are waiting for you in the main hall," A-Can reported.
"Why didn't you say so earlier? Stop talking nonsense." Bai Ke kicked A-Can away.
"I'm innocent, young master!"
As soon as Bai Ke arrived in the hall, he saw Feng Yu and Lin Yun enjoying tea and waiting for him.
"Haha, Elder Feng, Elder Lin, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. It's all Ah Can's fault..."
Old Feng interrupted him with a strange smile, "Young man, I understand, I understand! It's not your fault, we just happened to come over for a cup of tea."
...This is disrespectful to elders! Bai Ke was speechless.
"Ahem, let's not talk about that. Elder Lin, I've already collected the Heavenly Snow Lotus and Phoenix Blood!" Bai Ke said to Elder Lin with some joy.
"Young master, your kindness is immeasurable, I will never forget it!" Old Lin said excitedly, bowing deeply.
"Mr. Lin, please rise. There's no need for that. I will take care of what I promised you!"
Feng Lao looked at Bai Ke with a surprised expression and said, "This is incredible! These are truly treasures. I have never seen such treasures in my entire life. You are indeed amazing, kid!"
"
"I'm truly impressed! When will you send me some treasures sometime?"
Lin Yun ignored Feng Yu completely and said, "What happened between you and the Phoenix in the Chaotic Burning Sea, Young Master? Not only did you obtain such a treasure, but your cultivation level has also reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage!"
Feng Yu was also taken aback. He hadn't known what he was missing until he saw it. He had initially thought the disciples were just boasting about Bai Ke, but now he was truly shocked by what he saw. Bai Ke's aura was completely concealed. In particular, his physical body was so well-developed that he couldn't even see through it, as if it contained an explosive power!
Feng Yu even wondered if he, now at the Great Ascension stage, was still a match for Bai Ke.
"What kind of magic pill did you eat, kid? You'll catch up to me in a few days!" Bai Yu shouted.
"It's not that exaggerated, it's just luck." So Bai Ke roughly told Feng Lao and Lin Lao about what happened, but he kept the matter of the Broken Heart of Chaos to himself.
Feng Lao and Lin Lao were all amazed, for what Bai Ke had encountered was truly unbelievable.
"So, the forbidden area of the Chaotic Burning Sea has disappeared!"
"Yeah, indeed."
"You're incredibly lucky, kid. Having a Xuanwu is already good enough, but now you have a divine beast, the Vermilion Bird, and you've even awakened your dragon vein? It seems I've really followed the right person, haha." Feng Yu exclaimed in amazement and laughed heartily.
"There's one more thing. What happened while I was away? Why was the Supreme Ancestor injured? And tell me exactly which forces were besieging us."
After listening to Elder Feng's words, Bai Ke fell into deep thought.
After a long pause, Bai Ke slowly said, "Based on my deduction, besides Feng Manlou of the Central Killing Domain, there should be another extremely powerful force secretly orchestrating everything. They probably won't give up so easily! Who exactly are they?"
"It seems that we first need to know what they want and what their purpose is," Bai Ke said calmly.
"Young man, you mean they're not just after unifying the Mountain and Sea Realm?"
"Hehe, since they are so eager to attack our four sects, they must have some ulterior motive. If it were just to dominate the Mountain and Sea Realm, they wouldn't be so eager to become our enemies with their power."
"How about we lure the snake out of its hole?"
……
The secret hall of Tian Ce Palace.
"Excellent, a brilliant plan! The Holy Son is indeed both wise and courageous!" Venerable Tianxu nodded slightly and said with a smile.
“But isn’t doing this a bit too risky?” Bai Yan said.
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained! Alright, let's do it this way! I want to see just what forces are targeting my Tian Ce Palace," Ning Fengyi said, making the final decision.
"This matter is entrusted to the Holy Son; proceed with utmost caution!" said the Supreme Ancestor. Bai Ke
He nodded slightly and slowly withdrew from the secret hall.
The Supreme Ancestor and Ning Fengyi exchanged a smile.
