Chapter 178: System: Holy Son of Tai Chu Still Wishes to Thank Us!
One hour later, Bai Feng looked at the crowd wailing inside the ‘Recording Array’ and then glanced at the Cheerful Holy Son of Tai Chu, who looked completely refreshed.
No wonder he’s called the Child of Destiny! Turns out he’s not just a simple battle fanatic — he’s got some serious scheming skills.
He actually used his plan to record moves as an excuse, tricking this bunch of disciples into a fight.
Hopefully, these disciples won’t leave any psychological scars. Just saying.
【Beep! The host used a simple excuse to make the Child of Destiny start an internal fight among themselves. One of them fell to the ground and couldn’t get up, their pride shattered once again. Reward: Luck Points +511, ‘How to Make Puppets’】
Bai Feng: “……”
He didn’t know if the Holy Land disciples would be traumatized, but he knew he definitely was.
d*mn it! Why?
What does that have to do with me……
Alright, this time maybe it’s partly my fault.
Bai Feng had a tear-jerker moment, thinking if he had known Tai Chu’s Holy Son would call the Child of Destiny over and have a fight, he definitely wouldn’t have brought it up.
“White Disciple, have you finished recording?”
At this moment, the Child of Destiny, lying on the ground, lifted his head with expectation and asked Bai Feng.
In his face, Bai Feng saw no suspicion or disgust like he usually did when other Child of Destiny disciples saw him—only friendliness, concern, and anticipation.
What kind of torment has Tai Chu’s Holy Son put this disciple through? To be able to withstand his mockery like this?
White Feng nodded seriously: “Rest assured, Senior Brother, all is recorded. Tomorrow, I can make a substitute for you.”
“That’s wonderful! Bai Disciple, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, just find me!” The Child of Destiny looked excited. “By the way, once I reach Yuan Ying, you must come find me to re-record moves. Don’t forget! If it’s inconvenient for you to come to Central Continent, I can go to Northern Region and look for you!”
“……Will do, please rest assured, Senior Brother!”
Bai Feng hurriedly nodded. This was the first time he’d seen someone request him to come patch up moves willingly.
I wonder what Tai Chu’s Holy Son did to him.
Just then, Tai Chu’s Holy Son suddenly looked at him and asked, “White Disciple, when do you plan to complete the Array?”
“Should be tomorrow,” Bai Feng glanced at the kind-looking Tai Chu Holy Son, silently ranking this person’s danger level at the top of the chart. “Senior Brother Pei, if you have any ideas, you can say — I’ll see if I can incorporate them into the Array.”
“Hmm…” The Holy Son of Tai Chu fell into deep thought. After a few seconds, he lifted his head. “I want to fight in a more complex environment, and I don’t want the enemies to appear directly in front of me. After all, outside the sect, enemies won’t be so cooperative like during sect competitions—they won’t just wait for you to be ready.”
Got it. Senior Brother Pei, wait for my good news!
Bai Feng nodded, already coming up with a plan.
“Then I’ll trouble White Disciple,” Tai Chu’s Holy Son looked forward to it, drawing out a long sword from his waist. “Though this move isn’t as good as the Tai Chu one, it’s also one of my trump cards. Today, I will pass this to you.”
“This move is called Ying Ri.”
He raised the long sword in his hand. With spiritual power circulating, the sword tip seemed to gather a blazing glow. When he stabbed forward, the sword light shot like a meteor, bringing a wave of heat. The sharp sword qi felt like it could penetrate anything blocking his path.
“I think, this move alone probably covers the cost of building the Array,” said the Holy Son of Tai Chu with a smile, gazing at Bai Feng who was still stunned by shock.
He then sheathed the sword and looked at Bai Feng, who was momentarily lost for words.
At this moment, a sudden system pop-up appeared before Bai Feng:
【Beep! The system detected that the host managed to easily extract and learn Pei An’s secret move with just a little trick. Pei An still wants to thank us! Reward: Luck Points +678, Unknown Immortal’s work: ‘Terrain Array – Environment Chapter’】
Enough is enough. Seriously, system, even the pop-up windows are ridiculous!
This is better than charging for it!
……
“Life is so hard……”
Bai Feng carried a lounge chair, found an empty spot, and flopped down. After being hit by the system twice in a short period with Luck Points, all motivation had drained away in an instant.
If he had known it would come to this, maybe he should just have done nothing!
Farming for the sect’s resources—ah, if he knew it would be like this, he should have just recorded moves with Lin Yan and the other disciples of Heavenly Sword Sect. They’re just guarding sect protection, so their moves would’ve been enough for a long time.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ling in the distance suddenly put down her book and looked up. She saw Bai Feng lounging around like a slacker next to her and then stood up, moving her lounge chair over to his side: “Finally realizing that Pei Senior Brother isn’t normal?”
“Yeah…… pretty much,” Bai Feng replied carelessly. Honestly, he didn’t want to bring up the mastermind behind his double Luck Points drain.
“So, I suggest staying far away from him most of the time, and on your spare time, why not just lie around and soak up the sun with me?”
“Exactly.”
Bai Feng nodded. If he had been resting with Jiang Ling, he wouldn’t have been hit twice with Luck Points.
“Here, have some. Our Yao Chi Holy Land’s specialty.”
Jiang Ling offered him some dried fruit.
“Thanks.”
Bai Feng took a piece, bit into it. It was sweet and sour, with a unique aroma. Once eaten, even his internal Spirit Power seemed to wake up a bit—a clear sign Jiang Ling knew how to enjoy life.
“Brother, what are you doing here?”
At that moment, Bai Yu Mo came over, looking at Bai Feng and Jiang Ling on the lounge chairs. How come Jiang Ling just moved over while she was away?
“Suddenly lost motivation, so looking for a place to lie down and slack off,” Bai Feng turned to look at Bai Yu Mo. “Want to join?”
White Feather Mo blinked, then subtly averted her gaze, lightly scratching her cheek. “That’s not really appropriate, everyone’s watching……”
“I mean, here’s an extra lounge chair I’ve got,” Bai Feng said, eyes twinkling.
White Feather Mo’s face suddenly flushed red—what was she even thinking?
“Ah… um, no, I, I don’t need to—” she hurriedly waved her hands in panic. “I mean, if you’re tired, maybe we should head back first.”
“Fair enough.”
Bai Feng nodded. Anyway, he’d finished recording moves, and staying longer might just cause him to get hit with Luck Points again.
He stood up, packed away his lounge chair, and waved at Jiang Ling: “See you later, Senior Sister Jiang. I’ll bring some snacks next time.”
Jiang Ling didn’t stand up, just waved back.
