Chapter 215 Discussion
As he entered, he caught a glimpse of Ling Xin'er standing in the crowd not far away. He had planned to go back with her after everyone dispersed to catch up and reminisce about the longing they had felt for each other during this time.
Perhaps, by playing the victim and acting cute, he could get some benefits. But Ning Fengyi asked him to stay, indicating that she had something to say.
Having no other choice, Bai Ke had to stay. He turned to face Ling Xin'er and mouthed and gestured, "You go back first, I'll come find you when I'm done!"
Seeing his expression, Ling Xin'er blushed instantly. She glanced around to make sure no one had noticed their little interaction, then gave Bai Ke a shy, reproachful look before leaving the main hall with her companions.
Only after everyone had left, leaving just the three of them in the sect's main hall, did Bai Ke finally drop his previous humble demeanor, relax his body, and lean straight down onto a chair next to Bai Yan.
"Oh dear, everyone's finally gone. You have no idea how exhausted I've been these past few days. Not only have I not been eating or drinking well, but I also had to be wary of the people from Mo Yun Kingdom chasing me on the way back."
We haven't had a proper rest. If it weren't for the Lingyun Ferry that you gave me, Master Uncle, we'd probably still be on our way back!
Bai Ke spoke in a pitiful tone, but his blinking eyes were mischievous, which made Ning Fengyi laugh out loud.
Ning Fengyi, who was usually extremely conscious of her image, didn't care at all that her hearty laughter would affect his refined appearance. She simply pointed at Bai Ke with glee and laughed:
"You cunning little brat! I haven't even said anything yet and you're already playing the victim. The indictment from the Mo Yun Kingdom has already been sent over! What else do you have to say?"
After thousands of years of exploration, the infrastructure in the Mountain and Sea Realm, including the Way of Formations, has become incredibly prosperous.
For example, the accusation document from Moyun Kingdom that Ning Fengyi just mentioned was transmitted via a small teleportation array.
It can be said that since the Mountain and Sea Realm entered the era of extraterritorial colonization, powerful cultivators of the Dao of Space have appeared like a swarm of locusts.
You could say that demand determines supply, because of the demand, so many people with extraordinary talent in the art of space have emerged.
However, the Dao of Space is vast and profound. To this day, cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Realm have only barely managed to comprehend the spatial formations and other techniques left behind by the ancient cultivators.
When Bai Ke first transmigrated, the boundary anchor he redeemed from the system shop was used to fix world coordinates.
Spatial teleportation arrays can use the power of the array to connect two spatial nodes, and then tear through space to teleport things that are separated by two places.
When they returned from their training in Moyun Kingdom, some disciples suggested using the teleportation array to return to the sect's headquarters.
After all, Tian Ce Palace is the undisputed overlord of the entire Tian Domain. In order to control its forces, it has set up teleportation arrays in every megacity with a population of over 50.
Bai Ke had also considered this suggestion, but ultimately abandoned this tempting idea.
After all, when he returned from the world of Tian Long Ba Bu, the void storm that raged on Tian Du Peak was something he truly feared from the bottom of his heart.
I am now able to begin to sense spatial fluctuations and am particularly sensitive to all changes in space.
If I accidentally trigger a void storm when the teleportation array is activated, then I'm really doomed.
Last time, I was just lucky. On the one hand, the defensive formation on Tiandu Peak blocked my way, and on the other hand, Bai Yan arrived in time to save me.
Even so, Tian Du Peak was still ravaged by the raging void storm, and Xing Jian even managed to seize a handle against it.
His claim that he would be punished by being forced to face the wall in seclusion for damaging part of the spiritual veins of the Tian Ce Palace's protective array is utter nonsense.
Are you suggesting that Bai Ke has to die in the void storm? That makes no sense...
Thinking of this, Bai Ke couldn't help but look around. Not long ago, he had thoroughly humiliated that old man here, and the memory still made him feel incredibly satisfied.
Ning Fengyi seemed to know what Bai Ke was thinking. Seeing his vacant gaze as he looked around, she knew he must have been lost in thought.
After exchanging a glance with Bai Yan, Ning Fengyi stood silently in the center of the sect's main hall, looking at Bai Ke, seemingly lost in thought.
After a long while, Bai Ke finally came to his senses, and then he saw Ning Dongxi grinning with a mouthful of white teeth, leaning close to him and saying:
"Haha, very good. In all my years of life, this is the first time I've seen you enter a state of enlightenment so easily. This is a rare opportunity. Tell me what you've gained?"
Bai Ke pondered for a moment, then raised his head, looked ahead, and said with a faint smile, "Reporting to my senior uncle, I just remembered that Elder Xing Jian forced me here back then."
Now, I have to grit my teeth and cheer for my disciples' safe return. Thinking about it carefully, this is probably what they mean by "every bite and every sip is ordained by Heaven..."
Ning Fengyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "You, you have comprehended the Dao of Cause and Effect?"
Bai Ke shook his head. The soul space and the law of fire were enough for him to comprehend. Why bother trying to comprehend cause and effect when he had nothing better to do?
If I remember correctly, in my past life, it seemed that only bald monks would constantly talk about good and evil, cause and effect. I'm living a good life now, so why would I want to become a monk?
However, Bai Ke couldn't say that to Ning Fengyi. He tilted his head and said, "This disciple is ignorant and has not yet comprehended the law of cause and effect. I have only made a slight breakthrough in my state of mind."
Ning Fengyi smiled and then said softly, "That's not bad. The Way of Cause and Effect allows us to glimpse the secrets of heaven, so it's better not to ask. Fortunately, you still gained something, so we didn't lose out."
Bai Ke hurriedly nodded in agreement, and then cheerfully recounted his experiences in Mo Yun Kingdom, focusing on the strange situation within the kingdom.
"You mean that several forces within the Mo Yun Kingdom, including the Mo Yun King, have all shown a tendency to oppose our Tian Ce Palace?"
Bai Ke nodded and said, "Yes, the others are my fellow disciples and the accompanying elders who can testify for us. The people of the Mo Yun Kingdom's faction have treated us poorly and harshly. I suspect that there may be a major change in the Mo Yun Kingdom."
Ning Fengyi nodded and said, "Hmm, what you said makes sense. I will send someone to investigate again. You can go back now!"
