Chapter 161 Preparation
Ning Fengyi disappeared in a flash, but Bai Yan remained sitting motionless in the main hall. Bai Ke grinned and approached him.
"Father..." Before he could finish speaking, Bai Yan sealed Bai Ke's mouth, silencing him completely.
Bai Yan, who is usually taciturn, has been thoroughly annoyed by Bai Ke's eccentric behavior these days, so he had no choice but to come up with this idea.
After struggling in vain, Bai Ke had no choice but to beg Bai Yan for mercy. Only after Bai Yan confirmed that he would not talk nonsense again did he release Bai Ke from the restraints.
"Phew..." Finally able to speak again, he hurriedly exhaled a deep breath, then looked at Bai Yan with dissatisfaction.
Bai Yan showed no remorse for his wrongdoing and coldly reprimanded, "Why are you causing trouble for no reason, you fine young man?"
Fine, fine, no matter what, his father is the most important person in the world, so Bai Ke had no choice but to swallow his anger and shrug.
"Father, what kind of supernatural power did you just cast on me? Why didn't I feel any spiritual energy fluctuations?"
Bai Yan was quite surprised that Bai Ke's sensitivity to spiritual energy was now so high, so he looked at him with a surprised expression and then explained:
"It's just an ordinary restriction. After you return, if you're interested, I'll take you to find a master who is very proficient in the art of restriction formations."
Bai Ke nodded quickly. Putting everything else aside, this kind of restriction technique is completely silent when activated, exquisite and compact, and is definitely a powerful tool for ambushing people. He should learn it well.
Bai Yan had no idea that Bai Ke was harboring such ulterior motives. If he had known, he probably would have been tempted to send Bai Ke off Tian Ce Peak to keep the Ink Kirin company.
After a long silence, probably feeling that Bai Ke no longer needed his special reminders, he patted him on the shoulder and walked out of the main hall.
Before leaving, he left a message for Bai Ke: "Be careful on this trip. If anyone tries to cause trouble, don't act rashly. We'll deal with them slowly after the Holy Son Election."
Bai Yan, who had held the position of head of the Enforcement Hall for decades, was not the type to suffer losses.
They had all seen Lin Xiu's expression and demeanor before he left, and they weren't worried about whether Bai Ke could handle it.
This kid's cunning and scheming made even these seasoned veterans feel uneasy. How could Lin Xiu, a mere hothead, possibly take him down?
Therefore, Bai Yan only advised Bai Ke not to act impulsively, to be patient and wait until later, and not to cause trouble at the critical juncture of the Holy Son's election.
The sect's ironclad rule is that disciples are strictly forbidden from killing each other. Once discovered or confirmed, the consequence is the loss of all cultivation and lifelong hard labor, regardless of status.
Bai Ke nodded to indicate that he understood, and then Bai Yan waved for Bai Ke to leave, and then disappeared into the sect's main hall.
Bai Ke looked enviously at his cheap father and the sect leader Ning Fengyi's stylish departure, thinking to himself that he must learn this supernatural ability in the future.
This ability to appear and disappear without a trace is practically an essential skill for sneaking in, picking locks, and stealing kisses. Thinking of its wonders, he even slurped his saliva, lost in thought.
After leaving the rugged and unrestrained main hall of Tian Ce Palace, Bai Ke stood on Tian Ce Peak and looked into the distance, "This is... the foundation of my future!"
After a long while, he suddenly smiled, then stepped his left foot into the thick twilight mist between the mountain peaks, and disappeared in an instant.
Since we're going to the Moyun Kingdom to investigate the zombie outbreak, we need to make some preparations, at least we should stock up on antidote pills and barrier-avoiding pills.
After returning to his cave dwelling at the Cliff of Discipline, Bai Ke scanned the area with his divine sense and immediately spotted A-Can, who was also meditating in a cave not far from him. He then sent a message to A-Can, asking him to come over.
Before long, A-Can arrived at the entrance of Bai Ke's cave. After welcoming A-Can into the cave, Bai Ke quickly told A-Can his request and asked him to do it as soon as possible.
"Is it in such a hurry, young master? Didn't you just say you were leaving tomorrow? Why are you in such a rush?"
Ah-Can looked at Bai Ke, who was busily working nervously, somewhat puzzled, wondering if his young master was making a fuss over nothing.
While packing his things, Bai Ke replied, "The two mission locations arranged by the sect this time are quite close to each other. I think there must be something fishy about it."
Go to Wanbaotang and get some medicine you think you might need, especially medicine for stopping bleeding, healing wounds, recovery, and detoxification. Do it in my name; the people there won't dare to give you any trouble.
No matter what, Young Master Bai is the sect's top disciple. Even if Wanbaotang is practically Xing Jian's territory, he still can't use these supplies to annoy him.
Thinking of resupplying, Bai Ke stopped A-Can, who was about to set off, and handed him the spatial ring that Wang Bu'er had given him last time, instructing him:
"After you get the pills, go and withdraw some spirit stones, still in my name. Go and come back as soon as possible, time is tight, so you'll have to work a little harder, Ah Can."
Seeing Bai Ke's anxious expression, A-Can couldn't help but become serious and said solemnly, "Don't worry, young master, don't you trust me to handle things?"
After saying that, Ah Can flashed away from Chijie Cliff and headed towards Wanbao Hall. Now that he and Xing Jian and his son were almost at odds, he should not go there to cause trouble unless necessary.
This is Bai Ke's first time traveling far from home, and it's after he transmigrated here. He's experiencing exotic customs in this world of mountains and seas, and he's feeling both nervous and excited.
After checking the items in his storage ring several times and finding nothing missing, Bai Ke got up and flew towards Tiandu Peak.
Earlier, when Ning Fengyi placed the bamboo stick with the zombie pattern on it, Bai Ke had already probed it with his divine sense.
The space inside was small, containing only a mass of light green, foul blood and a list that gleamed with a sharp light.
The filthy blood must have been extracted from the zombie's body by the disciples of Tian Ce Palace, otherwise the bamboo stick wouldn't have the ability to automatically sense zombies within a thousand miles around it.
Ultimately, this trial was just an opportunity for elite disciples like Bai Ke, and incidentally, it allowed those disciples protected under the sect's wings to see blood, so there wasn't much risk involved.
To Bai Ke's surprise, the list only had a dozen or so people on it, and even two of the top three were from his side.
One is Su Ziyuan, a woman who Bai Ke previously found mysterious, and the other is Ling Feng, an old acquaintance of Bai Ke.
However, the seemingly honest and simple-minded boy Yu Lei was not there. He must have been assigned to Lin Xiu's group. Bai Ke looked at Ling Feng's name and the corners of his mouth curved up strangely. "Let's cause some trouble!"
