Chapter 302 A Clash of Young People (Part 1)
"Senior Huanghuozi, Elder Jueyuan, why don't you have your disciples follow Elder Baiyan to their lodgings first? We'd like to go to the Ascending Heaven Hall for a chat, shall we?"
“No problem.” Huang Huozi waved to the disciples of Huangya Mountain behind him, then roared at Huang Ba lying on the ground, “You brat, are you still pretending to be dead? Get up now and come with me to the Ascending Heaven Palace.”
Upon hearing this, Huang Ba scrambled to his feet, full of energy and acting as if nothing had happened.
The young monk Wumeng and Elder Jueyuan walked over, and Huangba glared at Wumeng fiercely. But because Elder Jueyuan was by his side, Wumeng appeared to be a serene and enlightened monk who had attained enlightenment.
This infuriated Huang Ba. He secretly glanced at Huang Huozi, only to find the latter looking at him coldly. He couldn't help but shiver and became obedient.
Liu Ping, who was watching the show from the sidelines, looked at the two clowns and wanted to laugh. Judging from Liu Ping's expression, he originally wanted to make a few more sarcastic remarks to Huang Huozi, but when he thought that Emperor Chao Xi would also be in the Dengtian Palace later, he decided to save his energy to scold him.
Liu Ping, Ning Fengyi, Huang Huozi, Huang Ba, Jue Yuan, and Wu Meng, a group of six, flew towards the Heavenly Ascension Hall.
Bai Ke was also heading towards Tian Ce Peak at that moment, but he seemed to be preoccupied with something.
Since the battle with Ling Feng, Bai Ke felt that his cultivation bottleneck had loosened.
After breaking through the killing formations, and even in the recent small battle with Huang Ba and Wu Meng, Bai Ke always felt like he was about to break through, but something was still missing.
What is the most crucial thing? Bai Ke has never been able to figure it out... Everything is ready, it's just one step away from completion!
He had a strong sense of breakthrough when he was under the pressure of Feng Yu's Mahayana stage, but he was still a little short of the required strength.
What exactly is the opportunity for a breakthrough...?
As Bai Ke was thinking, the communication stone at his waist vibrated. He opened it and saw that it was Ning Fengyi urging him to come over.
Without further thought, Bai Ke quickened his pace and arrived at Tian Ce Peak, outside the Deng Tian Hall in the blink of an eye.
The two gatekeepers at the entrance greeted Bai Ke with "Holy Son" in unison and then opened the palace door for him.
Three people were seated in the guest seats in the Hall of Ascension: Emperor Tide, Jueyuan, and Huanghuozi. Behind them stood Zhao Xueqian, Wumeng, and Huangba, respectively.
Bai Ke's main focus was on Zhao Xueqian, the veiled girl standing behind the Tide Emperor. Her icy beauty and clear, snow-white eyes were incredibly alluring to him.
"Disciple Bai Ke greets all seniors!" Bai Ke said, cupping his hands in greeting.
"Ah, Bai Ke has arrived. Let me introduce you." Ning Fengyi walked over, patted his back, and led him to the guest seats, introducing him as follows:
"This is Master Jueyuan of Qianfo Temple. He has profound knowledge of Buddhist principles and a very high level of personal cultivation. He is currently practicing silent meditation, so he cannot speak."
Upon seeing this, Bai Ke bowed to Jue Yuan, who smiled and nodded back.
But in fact, Bai Ke was secretly laughing to himself. Jueyuan, Wujue? What kind of broken Buddhist name is this? Is there something wrong with this old man, or is he an insulator?
"This is Senior Huang Huozi from Desolate Cliff Mountain, a body-refining cultivator with strength comparable to an early-stage Mahayana cultivator. He is an upright person..."
"Alright, alright, enough nonsense. I didn't expect the Heavenly Strategy Saint Son to be you, kid. Where's Huang Can?"
Huang Huozi impatiently interrupted Ning Fengyi, standing up and confronting Bai Ke directly.
"Huang Can?" Bai Ke asked in confusion.
"Don't play dumb. Didn't Bai Yan tell you about this? I remember that kid Huang Can said he wanted to be your follower." Huang Huozi asked with a frown.
Huang Can, A-Can? Bai Ke suddenly remembered that his mother, Jing'er, had helped A-Can find his family, but A-Can had never told Bai Ke about his family's origins in detail...
In his memory, Ah Can vaguely mentioned once that his family was in the desolate region. And Ah Can was a body-refining cultivator, could it be that he…
"Senior Huanghuozi, the person you're talking about isn't my brother Acan, is it?" Bai Ke asked.
"It's the child your parents adopted together. He should be twenty-five years old this year. He's from the Huang family of Huangya Mountain. I'm asking you how he is now," Huang Huozi explained impatiently.
“He is doing well, possessing body-refining strength comparable to the peak of the Golden Core stage. I recently assigned him an exploration mission, so he is not currently in the sect,” Bai Ke replied.
"Hmm... Although his strength is still a bit low, it's good that he's safe. Kid, pass on a message for me: when he comes back, tell him that Grandpa Huanghuozi wants him to return to Huangya Mountain, as this place is not suitable for him," Huanghuozi instructed in a deep voice.
Bai Ke's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this. Although he smiled broadly and readily agreed, appearing gentle and easy to talk to.
But in his heart he was cursing: Shameless old bastard, you poached my people and you want me to pass on a message to you? I'll pass on shit to you!
"Ahem, you know the Tide Emperor, and you've met these young people before, so I won't introduce them further. Please return to your seat." Ning Fengyi knew from Bai Ke's expression that he was up to something bad, so she gave him this instruction.
Bai Ke smiled and returned to his seat, quietly watching Ning Fengyi and Liu Ping chat with the guests, but he remained silent.
For some reason, Bai Ke kept glancing at Wu Meng and Huang Ba. The two of them were staring at him, their faces full of resentment and eagerness.
Huang Ba leaned down and whispered something in Huang Huo's ear before walking straight toward Bai Ke.
"Brother Bai, do you have time to go out and exchange some pointers? I still vividly remember your impressive performance, so I would like to learn from you!"
Seeing the burning desire for battle in Huang Ba's eyes, Bai Ke chuckled and accompanied him outside.
Seeing Huang Ba and Bai Ke walk out, Wu Meng couldn't help but look at Jue Yuan with hopeful eyes. After the latter nodded slightly, Wu Meng also hurriedly ran out.
"These lads are quite energetic," said Tide Lord with a smile.
Everyone nodded in understanding, and Huang Huozi even said it directly:
"Young people should engage in more real combat. It's no big deal to suffer some losses or be beaten now. It's much better than losing your life in a life-or-death battle with the enemy later."
"Wow, I didn't expect Huang Huozi to actually have some knowledge. I always thought his brain was all muscle!"
Liu Ping made a joke, and the atmosphere in the hall became cheerful.
"Xueqian, aren't you going out to have some fun?" Tide Emperor asked the veiled girl behind him.
"Boring."
After Zhao Xueqian finished speaking, the Tide Emperor's eyes sharpened, as if he wanted to say something...
