Ignoring Murong Yuanyang's expression, which seemed to suggest he wanted to say something more, Bai Ke uttered those words and then ran straight out as if his life depended on it.
Watching Bai Ke's hasty retreat, Murong Yuanyang clicked his tongue a few times and muttered, "That kid, I haven't even finished speaking and he's already in such a hurry to leave."
He looked like he was in a hurry to be reborn, but I couldn't eat him! After saying that, he shook his head and turned to attend to his own business.
Bai Ke, who had just run away, breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing he had finally escaped. He reached out and rubbed the shoulder that Murong Yuanyang had just patted, wincing in pain.
"That Elder Murong has such a strong grip; he almost seriously injured my shoulder. Luckily, I was quick-witted and ran away, otherwise, I would have had to go back to recuperate today!"
Bai Ke muttered to himself as he walked forward. He inspected Tianxiu Peak for a while and found everything normal.
Just as I was about to stop by to see Ling Xin'er, I saw several female disciples walking towards me.
Just as he was about to go up and ask them where Ling Xin'er was, he saw that they were talking about something and didn't notice him at all.
Listening more closely, it seemed like they were talking about Lin Xiu.
As the female disciples drew closer, Bai Ke quickly dodged them. Then, he heard them talking.
"Really? Senior Brother Lin Xiu is really badly injured?" Disciple A asked curiously.
"I don't know, but I suppose so. Do you think it's that simple to forcibly extract a soul from someone's body? There will definitely be some impact, more or less," Disciple B replied.
At this moment, disciple Bing suddenly said, "But I heard from my friends at Wanbaotang that Senior Brother Lin Xiu is actually not seriously ill, just a little weak, and will recover in a few days."
A asked C, "Is your information reliable?"
"Of course it's reliable, all the disciples of Wanbaotang know about it."
Disciple A: "Everyone hears different information, so it's impossible to know which one is true!"
Disciple B: "If you ask me, whether the news is true or false, it's none of our business. You should stop gossiping."
Disciple C: "You can't say that. We are all disciples of the Tian Ce Palace, so we should care about each other."
Disciple B: "How do we show concern? Do we go to Wanbaotang to chat with Senior Brother Lin Xiu, relieve his boredom, and tell him we'll be his confidante? Is that what showing concern is?"
"I think you might have a crush on that Senior Brother Lin Xiu, which is why you're paying so much attention to his news?"
Disciple C: "Oh dear, Senior Sister, why are you saying that about me? When did I ever say I had feelings for Senior Brother Lin Xiu? If you keep talking nonsense like this, I'm not going to talk to you anymore!"
Upon hearing this, everyone laughed. Disciple A immediately said, "Alright, stop fooling around. We need to deliver things quickly; we don't want to be late!"
The other female disciples responded in unison, and the three of them quickened their pace and continued walking forward.
Hearing their hushed conversation, Bai Ke emerged from behind a rockery and watched the female disciples walk away.
At this moment, Bai Ke had a playful expression on his face, gently stroking his sleeve with his right hand, and muttering to himself, "Lin Xiu, oh Lin Xiu, I almost forgot about you."
As the senior disciple and now a deacon of the Enforcement Hall, shouldn't I at least go and visit you, my ailing junior brother, and share this good news with you?
After saying that, he changed his mind about going to see Ling Xin'er and flew towards Lingyue Peak, where Lin Xiu lived alone.
After a short while, Bai Ke finally arrived at Lin Xiu's Lingyue Peak. After landing, he straightened his clothes and then, with a flick of his robe, headed directly towards Lin Xiu's Qingzhu Garden.
Before long, Bai Ke arrived at the gate of Qingzhu Garden. Seeing that the gate was closed, Bai Ke politely knocked on the lock a few times, and then heard someone open the door for him.
A servant opened the door, because Bai Ke had always kept to himself and rarely appeared in public, let alone come to Lin Xiu's place.
So when the servant who opened the door saw that the visitor was unfamiliar, he couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"
"My name is Bai Ke. I heard that Junior Brother Lin Xiu has been unwell recently, so I came to offer my condolences. Please help me pass on your message!"
Bai Ke greeted the attendant with impeccable manners. Upon hearing that the visitor was Bai Ke, the chief disciple of Tian Ce Palace! His young master's most hated nemesis!
I was completely taken aback when he actually came today, and I was momentarily stunned and didn't react.
After regaining his senses, he looked the man in front of him, who called himself Bai Ke, up and down, and said in surprise, "You're really Bai Ke?"
"Haha, your words are quite amusing, servant! If I am not Bai Ke, then who could be? I never knew there was another Bai Ke in this Tian Ce Palace?"
Upon hearing this, the attendant continued, "Wait a moment, allow me to inform my young master, and I will return to you later!"
After saying that, the servant slammed the door shut again and quickly went inside.
Bai Ke didn't mind waiting outside the door at all. Hearing the servant running and shouting "Young Master" from inside, he couldn't help but find it amusing, and a handsome smile appeared on his lips.
After waiting a moment, the servant finally reopened the door and said to Bai Ke with an unfriendly expression, "My young master said he doesn't want to see you. You should go back!"
"Huh? Lin Xiu doesn't want to see me?" Bai Ke asked suspiciously. "That's right, my young master said he doesn't want to see you right now, you should leave!" the servant continued.
"Hmph! Now that I'm here today, there's no reason for me to send people away without even seeing them!" With that, he stepped forward and barged in.
As he walked inside, he shouted loudly, "Lin Xiu, Senior Brother Bai came all this way out of kindness to visit you. How can you turn your guest away? What kind of logic is that!"
"Hey! I'm telling you, my young master said he doesn't want to see you, yet you still force your way in like this. You're so arrogant and don't know any manners. Get out of here!" The servant was also anxious when he saw Bai Ke trying to force his way in.
He ran in front of Bai Ke, blocking his way, and was about to push him out the door. But, he was just a lowly servant, no match for Bai Ke.
Bai Ke grabbed the servant by the collar and with a gentle lift, sent the servant flying out of the door in a perfect parabola.
“How dare a mere servant speak to me like that? He really doesn’t know any manners! Junior Brother Lin, I’ve taught your servant a lesson and shown him some manners.”
"Don't mind me!" After throwing the servant away, Bai Ke patted off non-existent dust with both hands as if he were disgusted, and continued to speak loudly.
Just then, a voice rang out: "Young Master Bai, please come this way. Our young master invites you!"
