Chapter 207 Who is the Visitor?
"Is everyone present?" Bai Ke asked Lin Xiu.
"Everyone is here and doing well!" Lin Xiu replied calmly.
"Then let's keep going! Everyone be careful!" Bai Ke said, and started to walk forward.
"Wait! There's something I don't understand! I'd like to ask you about it."
“Speak!” Bai Ke replied readily.
"We've been searching inside for a long time without finding a way to break through. How did you manage to find the flaw in that formation and even use the transmission talisman to tell us how?"
"Tch! I thought it was something important, but it turns out you're asking about this!"
I learned about it by chance, when I came across some information about formations and how to break them in an ancient book. It just so happened that this kind of thing was mentioned in it.
"Giving you transmission talismans goes without saying. As your senior brother, I naturally believe it's my responsibility and obligation to lead you out of this spirit stone vault. What? Is there a problem?"
These words only increased the disciples' gratitude and trust in Bai Ke, and they all looked at him with admiration. Lin Xiu and Ling Feng, however, were clearly unmoved and remained indifferent.
"No problem, Senior Brother's cultivation is indeed high; I didn't expect you to even have knowledge of formations. When we return to Tian Ce Palace, would you be able to lend me that book to take a look? I'd really like to see and learn from it!"
"Lin Xiu, have you forgotten that we are rivals vying for the position of Heavenly Strategy Saint Son? It's one thing to bring you out of the formation, but now you're even giving you scriptures to cultivate?"
"I'm not that selfless, do you think I'm stupid!" Bai Ke looked at Lin Xiu across from him with a mocking expression. The disciples on the side all lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.
They knew that their eldest brother and Lin Xiu were at odds and vying for the position of Holy Son. Faced with this situation, they couldn't say anything and could only remain silent and wait for the tension between them to dissipate.
Every time Senior Brother Lin Xiu provoked Senior Brother Bai Ke, Senior Brother Bai Ke easily deflected his attacks, while simultaneously making Senior Brother Lin Xiu furious. Yet, Senior Brother Lin Xiu never seemed to learn his lesson and constantly tried to assert his presence in front of Senior Brother Bai Ke.
If one didn't know that Senior Brother and Senior Brother Lin Xiu were truly mortal enemies, an uninformed person might have imagined some rather suggestive scenes and thought they had some kind of special relationship!
The two of them were exchanging words back and forth, clearly flirting! Senior Brother Lin Xiu and Senior Brother didn't get along and disliked each other, so Senior Brother Lin Xiu was always looking for trouble.
Then, Senior Brother Bai calmly countered each move, and with just a few words, he could make Senior Brother Lin Xiu jump up and down in anger again. Following this, Senior Brother Lin Xiu got angry and ignored Senior Brother Bai, after which Senior Brother Bai tried to cheer him up.
Then the two made up and went back to normal, and these steps and plots repeated themselves until they finally became a pair of bickering lovers...
Uh, no, no, ptooey! What am I thinking! I must have been looking at too many of those picture books sold on the streets back in Moyun Kingdom! How could I possibly connect these two people? I'm really obsessed!
When masters clash like this, it's often the bystanders who are most vulnerable to injury. Therefore, keeping quiet and pretending not to see is the best course of action.
"You... Hmph! If you don't want to give it, then don't. I was just asking, what's there to be so smug about! Since that's the case, what are we waiting for? Let's keep going." Lin Xiu was seething with anger, and while retorting to Bai Ke, he waved to the disciples behind him, signaling them to continue forward.
"Hmph! You said you learned it by chance from a book! How come I didn't know that Tian Ce Palace had such a book? Bai Ke, you can fool others, but you think you can fool me?"
If it's really as you say, then tell me the name if you dare! I bet even if you're feeling guilty, it's probably just something you got from your dad!
"Ha! Just you wait! I will definitely be much stronger than you, and you will all look up to me. You're just afraid that I will surpass you and cause you to lose the position of Holy Son, right? Unfortunately, I have already decided to become the Holy Son of Heavenly Strategy!" Lin Xiu thought to himself as he walked.
Meanwhile, Bai Ke continued to stroll leisurely, his carefree expression suggesting that they were there on vacation rather than planning to rob someone.
In fact, Bai Ke wasn't lying to Lin Xiu. He had indeed seen some information about formations in a classic text. It was from the secret chamber in the ancient cultivator's cave, on the table where some of these texts were displayed.
However, he had only glanced at it a little bit these days, so he wasn't particularly proficient. Usually, when he encountered formations or the like, he would directly use his Heavenly Eye.
So this statement, being half true and half false, effectively silenced Lin Xiu. Even if he were to become proficient in some formations someday, with today's groundwork laid, the others would likely have no further doubts.
"Who are you, daring to trespass into the spirit stone vault of Moyun Kingdom! Are you tired of living?!" a voice rang out.
As soon as the group looked in the direction of the sound, they saw more than a dozen guards from the Mo Yun Kingdom surrounding them, and the leader shouted at them.
"Oh my. I thought there was no one inside, but I didn't expect them to be waiting for us here! Haha!" Bai Ke said with a playful expression as he looked at the group.
"Trespassing without the king's order is a serious crime. Whoever you are or what you're doing here, leave now, or you'll regret it!"
"Us? We're here to borrow some spirit stones, of course. Otherwise, what are we doing here? Watching a show?!"
"How dare you! This is a sacred place, not a place you can just barge into! Do you know who the power behind our Moyun Kingdom is? It's the Tian Ce Palace! You should have heard of the Tian Ce Palace, right?"
If you don't want to be wanted by the Tian Ce Palace, you'd better leave now, or you'll regret it!
The disciples laughed when they heard the leading soldier mention Tian Ce Palace. Wanted by Tian Ce Palace? They were from Tian Ce Palace, could it be? Wanted by their own fellow disciples?
"Tch, I don't care who's behind you! We can barge into the Moko territory's spirit stone vault whenever we want and take the spirit stones we want! What else do we need to do but inform you first?"
Stop trying to stall us. Even if you manage to keep us here, you won't get reinforcements.
"Enough with the nonsense, let's get started!" After saying that, Bai Ke and his group immediately assumed a fighting stance.
They didn't use any magical artifacts because they were worried about being recognized, which would cause trouble. They could only compete in magical power and cultivation with their bare hands. However, even without magical artifacts, these soldiers were not a threat to them.
