Chapter 550: Chapter 16 The Look of Genius_1
Atop the Three Halls.
An ancient pce imprable to mortal eyes.
The White Clothed Child silentlynded before the pce.
His gazended on the pce, he spoke in a cold tone:
“Why have you summoned me?”
From within the pce, a clear voice rang out:
“Forgive me, Ancestral Master Yuyang, there’s a matter that requires your intervention.”
The White Clothed Child’s expression shifted slightly, though his face remained impassive. He replied indifferently:
“What matter?”
The voice from within the pce did not beat around the bush and said directly:
“It’s about Martial Nephew Yao from Wanfa Peak.”
For the first time, the White Clothed Child furrowed his brow:
“You mean Yao Wudi?”
“Didn’t you just remove him from his duties as Guardian? I even personally went there to retrieve his Guardian Order… And I gave him a few pointers, now what’s the matter?”<div>
“That was at the suggestion of the second elder, which aligns with my intentions, so I took advantage to make it happen.”
The clear voice within the pce chuckled lightly.
“However, I didn’t ask for your intervention for this matter, but to ask you to protect his Dao.”
The White Clothed Child couldn’t help but furrow his brows again:
“Protect his Dao? Is he worthy?”
“Yes.”
In the pce, the clear voice affirmed:
“Ancestral Master, you should know that thousands of years ago, the Dharma Lineage could still give birth to Nascent Soul Cultivators… but in recent years, the decline of heaven and earth became obvious, which affected the Dharma Lineage, making breaking through increasingly difficult. However, there’s still hope. Once Martial Nephew Yao breaks through, with his invincible Nascent Soul Realm, it’s unlikely that many will be his match within the Immortal Ascension Realm.”
“Martial Nephew Yao has already reached the limit of the Nascent Soul Realm, but has yet to glimpse the Dao Secret simply because the Sect has always provided him toofortable an environment, causing him tock a true heart-set-on-Dao training.”
“Just now, he finally epted the challenge set for him to intercept Monk King Xin.”
Upon hearing this, the White Clothed Child couldn’t help but frown lightly:
“…Who is Monk King Xin?”
“Er…”
The voice from within the pce hesitated momentarily, then chuckled unwillingly:
“A cultivator in the early stages of the Immortal Ascension from the Xituo Continent.”
“Oh.”
Upon hearing this, the White Clothed Child nodded nonchntly:
“With this boy’s foundation, his chances of defeating an Immortal Ascendant are almost non-existent, how could he equal him? Yes, he has a good chance of surviving defeat, but if he wants to truly set his heart on Dao and gain a ‘Dao Secret,’ his chances are less than a dominical one, most likely it would break his Dao-heart… Aren’t you being a bit hasty?”
There was an immediate silence inside the pce, followed by a deep sigh:
“The world has changed, how could we sit and wait…”
The White Clothed Child remained expressionless, simply saying coolly:
“For me to take action once, ten thousand top-grade Spirit Stones, don’t try to fob me off with Merits.”
From within the pce, a Storage Treasure promptly flew out.
That clear voice rang out at the same time: “It was already prepared for you, Ancestral Master.”
Seeing this, a rare smile appeared on the indifferent face of the White Clothed Child.
“Well, let’s give it a shot then. Do I need to follow him?”
The entity within the pce fell into a short contemtion, before responding:
“No need, the cultivators from the Dharma lineage are strong in Soul, if you were to follow him all the way, he would likely sense it. Wait directly at the ‘Fengxiao Strait’, Monk King Xin must pass from there after being expelled by the Longevity Sect…”
Upon understanding this, the White Clothed Child flicked his sleeve and vanished from sight in the twinkling of an eye.
Inside the pce left behind.
An Elderly Cultivator, looking through the semi-transparent window paper on the pce door, watched as the White Clothed Child departed, and slowly sighed:
“You better not disappoint me… that would be too much of a loss.”
…
“I heard from Senior Brother Yao that you haven’t systematically studied beast control, is that correct?”
Inside avish dwelling, Qi Yan casually inquired.@@novelbin@@
Wang Ba, respectfully standing before him, promptly nodded:
“Yes, I used to collect all kinds of books on beast control on my own, mostly piecemeal records from Rogue Cultivators and some small Sects. I just studied a bit here and a bit there, it isn’t systematic, and I don’t understand much about the selection, training, teaching spells of Spirit Beasts, etc.”
He didn’t conceal his own deficiencies.
One should have a learner’s mindset when seeking knowledge. Even if he had achieved something before, he should be willing to forget it entirely when learning.
What he mentioned were all areas where he felt he wascking.
Of course, there may be other deficiencies that he himself was not aware of yet.
Qi Yan nodded, not surprised.
He had noticed a lot of random books rted to beast control at Wang Ba’s Sect initiation exam. It was clear Wang Ba was self-taught.
However, hearing Wang Ba talking about these deficiencies, he still couldn’t help but frown:
“It seems your basics may be even worse than I thought… just put the tea over there. Mo Qi, since you’re here, listen to this too.”
Mo Qi carried the tea in, and quickly ced it on Qi Yan’s desk.
The rich aroma of the tea immediately filled the room. Wang Ba took a sniff, and felt his mind clear instantly, and his thoughts seemed to be sharper.
It was far better than the ss III spirit tea he had drunk at the Linglong Ghost Marketst time.
What left Wang Ba speechless was that Mo Qi only brought one cup with the tea except for the teapot.
Qi Yan seemed quite ustomed to this and didn’t show any intention of offering Wang Ba a cup either.
He picked up the tea that Mo Qi had poured, blew it lightly, the tea aroma lingered, but the tea was calm. He gently took a sip, then put down the cup and spoke to Wang Ba:
