Chapter 216 Making Things Difficult
"Alright! Then I'll take my leave!" Bai Ke stood up, bowed to Ning Fengyi and Su Anqing, and said.
He then went to his father and bid farewell to Bai Yan. Bai Yan nodded, said nothing more, and only told him to go back and rest well.
Bai Ke then turned and walked towards the entrance of the sect's main hall.
Watching Bai Ke's figure walk further and further away until it disappeared around the corner, Ning Fengyi turned to Bai Yan and asked, "What are your thoughts on what Bai Ke just said about the Mo Yun Kingdom?"
"Reporting to Senior Brother, I believe the matter concerning Moyun Kingdom is truly suspicious. How could such a small vassal state suddenly be so audacious? Therefore, I think we should immediately send people to investigate this matter."
Whether it was because the ruler of Moyun Kingdom couldn't see the truth and was unwilling to behave himself, or because someone deliberately instigated and provoked them so that they had someone backing them up.
We must all take this seriously and send people to monitor the movements of Mo Yun Kingdom or any suspicious individuals at any time. We must not be careless.
"Yes, that's exactly what I meant. In that case, let's get started on sending people to investigate this matter as soon as possible!"
"Yes! But, senior brother, I have another question!"
"You said."
"Since we've decided to send someone to Moyun Kingdom to investigate, we need a legitimate reason."
If the Kingdom of Moyun truly harbors rebellious intentions against our Tiance Palace, I fear even sending people there won't be a good solution!
"Don't worry about that. Bai Ke just mentioned the elder of Tian Ce Palace stationed in Mo Yun Kingdom. I think this is a great opportunity."
There is no more legitimate reason than for Tian Ce Palace to send people to thoroughly investigate the matter of that elder, isn't there?
We'll take this opportunity to send people over to keep an eye on the movements and unusual activities of the Mo Yun Kingdom. Even if the Mo Yun Kingdom is worried, what can they say?
Furthermore, the person sent must be astute and highly capable. This would be the perfect fit for your son.
However, during this training, Bai Ke had already incurred a grudge with the ruler of Mo Yun Kingdom, making it unsuitable for him to go and investigate further.
Therefore, this matter will be left to Elder Murong to handle and select the appropriate personnel!
“Yes, Junior Brother understands!” Bai Yan nodded to Ning Fengyi.
"Since we're free right now, how about the three of us go have some tea and play a few rounds of chess?" Ning Fengyi said leisurely, looking at Bai Yan and Su Anqing.
"Senior brothers, you may go ahead. I won't go. I'm going to talk to Elder Murong about this so he can find someone to go to Moyun Kingdom as soon as possible," Bai Yan replied solemnly.
"You're such a worrywart! Fine, fine, go ahead. If we asked you to have tea and play chess with us, you'd probably be distracted and thinking about this too."
As for the tea tasting and chess game, I'll go with Junior Brother Su, I won't take you! I just got some good tea a couple of days ago and wanted you to try it.
"Hmph! You don't have the luck to enjoy this yourself, go away! Come on, Junior Brother Su, let's ignore him!" With that, Ning Fengyi sulked like a child and left the hall with Su Anqing.
Bai Yan watched the two figures leave with a mixture of amusement and exasperation. Then, as if remembering something, he straightened his expression and headed towards the Hall of Law Enforcement.
After leaving the sect's main hall, Bai Ke did not forget his promise to Ling Xin'er and headed straight for Tianxiu Peak.
As he passed by a lake, he symbolically patted off non-existent dust from his clothes and straightened his attire.
Seeing that the person reflected in the lake was still handsome, dashing, and elegant, he nodded in satisfaction twice and continued walking towards Tianxiu Peak.
Upon arriving at Tianxiu Peak, it wouldn't be right to go directly to his girlfriend without paying respects to the master. So, Bai Ke symbolically went to pay his respects to the head of Tianxiu Peak, who was also Ling Xin'er's master—Tian Xin.
"Disciple Bai Ke greets Martial Uncle."
"What brings you here?" Tian Xin sat cross-legged on a cushion in the hall, holding a teacup in her hand, and asked Bai Ke in a calm tone.
Bai Ke noticed that Tian Xin's tone was cold and unfriendly, lacking even politeness, and figured she probably didn't like him.
But then he thought again, wait a minute, he hadn't had any grudges with this woman!
Didn't I hear that she's obsessed with her own father? Why is she so cold to the son of the person she likes?
Could it be that Bai Ke offended her before? That shouldn't be the case, right? What could Bai Ke possibly have to do with Tianxiu Peak, especially since she's the leader of Tianxiu Peak?
Could it be that Tian Xin has always been in love with her own father, Bai Yan, but in the end, Bai Yan fell in love with Bai Ke's mother, and the two of them ended up together?
Rivals are bound to be hostile to each other, let alone the rival's son. Thinking about it this way, Tian Xin's attitude towards him is quite reasonable.
Thinking of this, Bai Ke continued with a smile, "This disciple has come to see Ling Xin'er today. Now that I have arrived at Tianxiu Peak, I have come to pay my respects to my senior sister."
"Xin'er? What do you want with her?" Tian Xin remained indifferent.
"Reporting to Martial Uncle, it's just some private matter. This disciple wants to speak with her for a few minutes." Hearing Bai Ke's words, it was clear that he didn't want to say what it was about. Seeing his expression, Tian Xin continued to ask.
"You... like Xin'er?"
"Yes!" Bai Ke didn't expect the woman to ask so directly. After a pause, he readily admitted it.
"It's no use liking me. Let me tell you, I don't approve of you two being together!"
"May I ask, Uncle-Master, since Xin'er and I are both in love, why do you disagree?"
“Xin’er is my disciple. She’s well-behaved and obedient, and very likable. As for you…”
Bai Ke chuckled when he heard this, and continued to ask, "What's wrong, disciple?"
"Hmph! You two are just not a good match. I won't allow you to be together. You might as well go home!"
"I had long heard that Aunt Tian Xin was a woman who was just as capable as any man, but I never expected her to be so amazing! She even manages her disciples' private affairs so thoroughly."
"Bai Ke, don't try to provoke me. I won't fall for your tricks! I am Xin'er's master, which means I am Xin'er's elder. If I say I disagree, then I disagree."
"Uncle Tian, do you mean that because you are Xin'er's master and her elder, you can interfere in her private affairs, including who she wants to be with, is that right?"
"What do you want to say?" Tian Xin asked Bai Ke.
"What I want to say is that if what I just said is true, then there are many more senior uncles and master uncles in Tian Ce Palace."
"Could it be that they all want to do what you, Uncle Tian, and interfere in who Xin'er should be with?"
"You..." Tian Xin was clearly speechless at Bai Ke's words. The things she had just said were indeed just her way of intimidating Bai Ke by relying on her status as Ling Xin'er's master.
Now that Bai Ke has retorted like this, she was speechless for a while.
