Chapter 128 The Dog-Beating Stick (2)

Chapter 128 The Dog-Beating Stick (Part Twelve)

Our protagonist, Master Bai Ke, was clearly unimpressed by the system's "humility," but the system was not one to be trifled with either, remaining calm and unmoved.

"You...you!...You're ruthless!" Bai Ke bared his teeth and brandished his claws in the system space for a while, but in the end he still gave in to the system.

The situation is beyond our control, there's just nothing we can do...! We can't really give in to that shameless Xing Jian's wishes, Bai Ke isn't stupid.

"Alright, alright, you decide later. Just tell me what you need me to do in the consciousness space. I'm going to put trouble on that kid!"

Out of sight, out of mind. Being controlled by the system was clearly not a pleasant experience, so Bai Ke decided to use one of the thirty-six stratagems: running away was the best option.

The host and the system were deeply in love, but the melodramatic romance didn't happen. The system remained aloof as always, and Bai Ke slunk out of the system space.

Coming to his senses, Bai Ke looked at Xing Jian's smiling old face and was furious. "Hmph! You forced me to empty my wallet, damn it, I'll remember you!"

Bai Ke gritted his teeth, while Xing Jian was somewhat bewildered. How could this kid look at his father's killer so suddenly after only a short while?

Although he did want to kill that stubborn Bai Yan, he thought about it but decided against it. If he really wanted to do it, who would do it? Xing Jian was not willing to take that risk.

Besides, these people are the future of their families. When Lin Xiu becomes the sect leader, won't they all have to bow down to his son?

Xing Jian's current thoughts are very strange. On the one hand, he wants to completely eliminate all obstacles for Lin Xiu, but on the other hand, he has many concerns and is afraid of ruining his son's future wealth.

Well... although it hasn't happened yet, Xing Jian has indeed already treated Bai Yan and the others as his own.

Looking at it this way... that stinky rock Baiyan is actually quite pleasing to the eye... Xing Jian muttered to himself.

If Bai Ke knew what Xing Jian was thinking right now, he would definitely exclaim in amazement, "Ah Q reincarnated! This kind of spiritual victory is truly unparalleled!"

Slightly gathering his scattered thoughts, Xing Jian coughed twice, then stood with his hands behind his back in the center of the hall. He first bowed to Ning Fengyi, who was seated at the head of the table, and then turned to say:

“Nephew Bai, now that everything is ready, let’s begin. A breakthrough to the primordial spirit cannot be accomplished in a short time. In my opinion, it’s better to proceed as soon as possible.”

Bai Ke remained noncommittal, took a step or two back, and then his spiritual energy surged, causing the previously appearing stone wall projection to reappear.

Unlike before, when Bai Ke used his own spiritual power as bait, it collapsed after only a short while.

However, Ning Fengyi, who was already experienced, would not make such a mistake again. With a wave of her hand, she saw a tangible cyan spiritual power merge into the stone wall projection constructed by Bai Ke.

Upon seeing this, Bai Ke immediately struck down with his palm. The stone wall projection trembled and slowly rose into the air, hovering in the center of the sect's main hall, radiating boundless light.

In the system space, Bai Ke's hesitant voice echoed from the void, "System, will your method really work? I have a bad feeling about it."

"It's just a guilty conscience, host, don't take it to heart. However, it's clear that your mentality is not quite up to par right now. This system has another suggestion, host, would you like to hear it?"

The system bacteria is getting more and more mischievous. It's obvious that Bai Ke's evil value has caused some strange changes in it. For example, it now dares to flirt with itself.

In the void, no one could see anyone else. Bai Ke frowned deeply. Although he complained about his system's rigidity and dogmatism every day, he was actually a little worried if one day this thing started spouting nonsense...

Just now, when the spiritual power sent by Ning Fengyi merged with the projection on the stone wall, the system urged Bai Ke to quickly administer the medicine.

Um... it should be to trip up Lin Xiu. After the system's explanation, Bai Ke roughly understood how to use the Heart Seed Demon Secret Technique.

Secret techniques, to put it bluntly, are simply ways of using spiritual power. Even the wicked and unorthodox methods like planting demons in one's Dao heart cannot escape this commonality.

The system made it easy for Bai Ke to manipulate the martial arts moves; he simply changed the patterns of some martial arts techniques in the projection on the stone wall.

It's similar to hypnosis. Normally, it just looks like ordinary moves and afterimages, but if you really try to understand it, you'll fall for it without even realizing it.

Considering that the elders present would also probe into it with their divine senses, Bai Ke did not completely infiltrate the secretary of the Heart Seed Demon into it.

The effect of this stone wall projection is actually similar to a medicinal catalyst; the real key to its effectiveness lies in Bai Ke's evil spirit talent.

In the martial arts novels of my past life, I often saw beings like the Six-Fingered Qin Demon and the Crescent Moon Saber.

It's as if they'll be controlled if they come into contact with that type of weapon. In Bai Ke's view, it's as if they've been implanted with a demonic seed.

The knife and the musical score were the triggers for the drug's effects, and the same applies now. What Bai Ke planted in the stone wall projection was merely a guiding ingredient.

When Lin Xiu was completely absorbed in it, that was when Bai Ke would stir up the evil thoughts within him.

Unlike Bai Ke, who was obsessed with practicing swordsmanship, Lin Xiu became famous at a young age, and he also had a protective father backing him up.

He is basically the leader of the younger generation of Tian Ce Palace. The reason for saying "basically" is because of the sudden emergence of Bai Ke.

Before Bai Ke transmigrated, the original owner of this body also had superb cultivation and good looks. If he had worked a little harder, he would have been a top-notch figure like "Young Master Tian Ce". Why would he let Lin Xiu steal the spotlight?

However, the original Bai Ke really did resemble his father's personality, being taciturn and rarely interacting with others.

The direct disciples of Tian Ce Palace are all allowed to live on a separate spiritual peak, but Xing Jian moved his villa to the top of Tian Du Peak so that he could have some of the crowds around him.

Then the original owner stayed at Tiandu Peak for eight years, and then Xing Jian seized the opportunity to secretly murder him.

Now that Bai Ke has been resurrected, he is unrestrained and flamboyant. As soon as he broke through, he made A-Can win over people's hearts among ordinary inner and outer disciples.

Nowadays, Lin Xiu is no longer the only one among the ordinary disciples of Tian Ce Palace. In fact, because Bai Ke has a higher cultivation level and is more generous, he is even showing signs of surpassing Lin Xiu.

The world is bustling, all for profit; the world is bustling, all for gain. People strive for higher positions, and water flows downhill—it's all the same.

However, Lin Xiu just couldn't see through this logic. He always thought that Bai Ke had stolen his thunder, and now, in front of everyone, Bai Ke had used his spiritual sense at the Nascent Soul Realm to kill him.

How could a blood feud be ignored? Lin Xiu's mind was filled with thoughts of revenge, which gave Bai Ke the perfect opportunity to strike.
