Chapter 440: Commotion!
Commotion! . . .
Ling Wuxie chose his words carefully, expecting that Master Bai would explode in anger. Although he might not be able to engage in physical combat, his command of curses was formidable. Ling Wuxie had braced himself for a barrage of shouted insults, and he thought that the worst-case scenario would be receiving a verbal lashing from Master Bai.
If he were dealing with Bai Chen, he would have anticipated an explosive reaction. He'd expect Bai Chen to leap to his feet and launch a barrage of verbal assaults.
However, Master Bai turned out to be nothing like Ling Wuxie had imagined.
Before Ling Wuxie could even complete his sentence, Master Bai began to chuckle. His face radiated happiness as he responded, "You're absolutely right. Well said, Wuxie. You truly understand . I do have that problem in my heart. But you, my dear friend, have illuminated . Now I comprehend!"
Ling Wuxie was taken aback!
[Comprehend? What in the world has he understood? I'm the one who's bewildered now.
Is this... Is this still the proud Master Bai?]
He gazed at Master Bai with a puzzled expression and even reached out to feel Master Bai's forehead, as if to check for signs of a fever.
Evidently, he himself couldn't quite believe what he had just said!
Master Bai, however, took hold of his hand, fixed his gaze on him, and stated solemnly, "Wuxie, thank you. My brother."
Ling Wuxie was flabbergasted!
He was completely at a loss for words!
After a mont, he withdrew his hand and inquired with bewildernt, "I... I... What did I do... Why are you thanking ... I... What's happening?"
Master Bai chuckled and responded, "You don't need to understand. Wise n often find it difficult to be enlightened, while fools sotis stumble upon insights. The world is full of mysteries. You only need to know that you, Ling Wuxie, are my brother, the best! That's all!"
Ling Wuxie scratched his head, a sheepish grin spreading across his mischievous face. "Really? Am I truly that great? Hahaha... Wait, what did you say? Wise n often find it difficult to be enlightened, while fools sotis stumble upon insights? You're fine calling yourself a wise man, but why label a fool? Don't think I don't get it. You're the fool... Your entire family is foolish..."
Xiu of Heavens and Wan of Clouds both shuddered, their skin prickling with goosebumps at the exchange.
They were taken aback. Ling Wuxie's audacity in calling Bai Chen's entire family fools was unparalleled. They couldn't recall anyone else who had dared to utter such words.
Master Bai made a decisive move, putting his plan into action. He commanded, "Wan-Er, halt all ongoing operations. Cease everything. Locate Feng Zhiling with utmost urgency. Instruct him to comnce the production of those dan beads. Inform him that we will unveil the Heaven's Mystery to shield him from divine retribution. We will eliminate the most significant risk he faces while crafting dan beads. Furthermore, we will..."
His countenance radiated enthusiasm. "We will return to the Human Realms Above Heavens!"
"Absolutely!" Wan of Clouds responded with a palpable sense of delight. She understood her master's intentions and was eager to return ho.
However, Xiu of Heaven's deanor was different. She spoke with a heavy heart, "Master, this may pose a challenge... The assault on Ling-Bao Hall comnced tonight..."
She glanced at the ti and continued, "Two hours have passed since we issued the orders. Dawn is approaching... At this mont, I can only hope that Feng Monarch is fortunate enough to survive..."
Master Bai, Wan of Clouds, and Ling Wuxie wore expressions of concern.
Ling Wuxie recognized Feng Zhiling's significance. In the Human Realms Above Heavens, there were scarce few who possessed the skill to create supre dan beads, let alone Supre Heaven Seizing Dan beads. Every faction would vie for a master dan-maker of this caliber.
Bai Chen was at odds with Feng Zhiling, yet he was intimately familiar with him. Convincing Feng Zhiling to join their cause was implausible, as it ran counter to Bai Chen's grand plan in the Land of Han-Yang. He had attempted to sway Feng Zhiling nonetheless.
However, the circumstances had shifted. Bai Chen's own future now hinged on Feng Zhiling's survival. The situation had beco unpredictable. Ling Wuxie acted without hesitation, soaring into the sky. Gazing into the distance, he observed flas and smoke billowing in the east.
"Allow to investigate!" Ling Wuxie vanished into the sky, leaving only the echo of his voice.
His actions demonstrated god-like strength. Even in the Qing-Yun Realm, it was doubtful anyone could rival his might, let alone in the Land of Han-Yang.
Anyone privy to this information would likely be astounded. [Could there really be such an imnsely powerful individual in the world?!]
Yet, it was quite reasonable. He was Bai Chen's brother. How could he be anything less than formidable?
Wan-Er and Xiu-Er leaped into the sky and disappeared as well.
anwhile, Master Bai remained seated in his wheelchair, his coly visage composed and unruffled. He did not exhibit any signs of panic.
"I am Bai Chen!"
"Devoid of the Heavenly Mystery, I remain Bai Chen!"
"Even if Feng Zhiling perishes, even if my Heaven Seizing Dan is lost, I am still !"
"I am Bai Chen. In this world, I am one of a kind. I am myself. I was, I am, and I will forever be!"
His eyes glead with determination.
"ng Wuzhen, I am on my way!"
...
Cha Eun Xiao had just tended to Song Jue's wound when he suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of danger creeping closer.
He couldn't afford to be complacent. Stealthily, he made his way out of the room. Surveying the sky, all appeared peaceful. Nevertheless, his unease grew with every passing mont.
Swiftly, he ascended to the rooftop.
Scanning his surroundings, he found nothing amiss.
Still, he couldn't shake off the disquiet that had settled in his heart. He transford into the guise of Feng Zhiling and set off for Ling-Bao Hall.
On his journey, he heard a deafening explosion – BOOM! Fire and smoke billowed from Ling-Bao Hall. In the distance, cries and screams pierced the night air...
It was Ning Biluo!
The clock had just struck midnight.
At this very mont, a storm that had been concealed beneath the surface in the capital suddenly erupted on multiple fronts!
No one knew the cause.
Even those on nocturnal missions were in the dark about the catalyst for this chaos. Out of the blue, pandemonium had erupted!
Ling-Bao Hall was the initial epicenter of this upheaval. Its gates had been breached and shattered by an unknown assailant!
Flas shot into the sky, and smoke filled the air in an instant.
