Bai Jin was taken aback and quickly said, "Even if they find it annoying, I like it!"
Holy Mother Wudang floated up from the rock, reached out, and tidied Bai Jin's messy hair. She smiled and said, "Junior Brother, you should just be the bad guy yourself! Senior Sister can't do it." After speaking, she floated away into the distance.
Bai Jin turned his head and shouted, "Senior Sister, think about it carefully! I think you can do it, believe in your own strength."
"Hehe~" Two light laughs drifted from afar.
The sky brightened. In a secluded valley in the back mountains, Daoist Duobao sat in meditation. Around him sat three Outer Sect Disciples: Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears, Qiu Shou Xian, and Ling Ya Xian.
In a moment, Duobao slowly opened his eyes, and between their opening and closing, sharp light overflowed.
Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears, Qiu Shou Xian, and Ling Ya Xian all bowed in unison, respectfully calling out, "Senior Disciple Brother."
Daoist Duobao waved a hand, and a streak of green immortal light bloomed, spreading outwards to form an isolating barrier that sealed the valley. In a few blinks, the barrier faded and disappeared.
Daoist Duobao said indifferently, "Who told you to go bother Bai Jin?"
Ling Ya Xian opened his mouth, then slumped and said, "We heard that Bai Jin repeatedly ignored Senior Disciple Brother, so we wanted to vent his anger for you."
Duobao snorted coldly, "You lot think you can spar with Bai Jin? It's not that I look down on you, but if he wanted to toy with you, it would be as simple as toying with an ant."
Qiu Shou Xian retorted, "Senior Disciple Brother, it was Master who took action this time. If Master hadn't punished us..."
Duobao interrupted, "What else could you have done? Fight him? Believe me, he dares to slaughter you all."
Qiu Shou Xian paused, then exclaimed in shock, "Kill us? How dare he?"
Duobao said calmly, "Do you think you compare to Martial Uncle Jieyin of the West, or Martial Uncle Zhunti?"
Qiu Shou Xian quickly said humbly, "Of course, we don't dare to compare."
"In front of the two Martial Uncles, Bai Jin openly struck and sent their disciples flying, and the two Martial Uncles had nothing to say," Duobao said softly.
Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears added, "He slapped them."
"Hiss~" Qiu Shou Xian and Ling Ya Xian involuntarily gasped. To slap the faces of their disciples in front of two Martial Uncles, how did Bai Jin dare? Wasn't that slapping the faces of the two Martial Uncles?!
Duobao continued, "While discussing the Dao, Bai Jin brazenly sowed discord between the disciples of the Martial Uncles, even forcing them to kneel and perform the rites of a half-master."
Qiu Shou Xian and Ling Ya Xian's eyes widened. They really didn't know about this. The image of Bai Jin in their minds, that calm and detached figure, gradually became complete, his sword-like eyebrows raised, looking around with unparalleled dominance.
When they were suppressed by the West and couldn't lift their heads during the Dao discussion, how could the Outer Sect Disciples from before possibly reveal it? They all tacitly forgot, so these new disciples were completely unaware.
Duobao continued, "How do you think you compare to Eastern Emperor Taiyi?"
Ling Ya Xian said sheepishly, "Eastern Emperor Taiyi is the Emperor of Ten Thousand Demons, how could we compare?"
Duobao continued calmly, "Bai Jin injured the Bifang Demon God of the Demon Court in the East Sea and snatched the Nine Dragon Agarwood Carriage that Eastern Emperor Taiyi sought. Thus, he formed karma with the Demon Court."
Ling Ya Xian said incredulously, "He can injure a Great Luo Demon God and still dare to snatch the divine object the Demon Emperor sought? Is he tired of living? If he's not careful when traveling the Great Desolation in the future, he'll be killed by the Demon Race."
Duobao snorted, "Do you think he's stupid? After he returned, he gave the Nine Dragon Agarwood Carriage to Second Martial Uncle, transferring the karma. Later, it attracted Eastern Emperor Taiyi to come knocking, even leading to a battle."
Ling Ya Xian nodded repeatedly, "I heard about that. He used a dirty trick and won the final round."
Duobao retorted, "In a fair fight, he dared to use a dirty trick. Would you dare?"
The two asked themselves, in a battle witnessed by Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Master, and Martial Uncles, they really wouldn't dare to use dirty tricks.
Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears sighed, "He takes ruthlessly, gives up decisively, and fights without limits. We are far from it."
Duobao snorted coldly and summarized, "Bai Jin appears honest and tranquil, unconcerned with external matters, but in reality, he is despicable and shameless, strikes fiercely without mercy, and has countless hidden tricks. Yet, he always manages to win Master's favor. How can you fight him?"
He said very seriously, "I warn you, never provoke him, or even I might not be able to save you. I've experienced his methods more than once; he's extremely insidious. I've fallen into his schemes several times and nearly perished."
Ling Ya Xian and Qiu Shou Xian were both covered in cold sweat. Bai Jin was actually this terrifying, practically lawless. Only then did they deeply feel that they had truly walked a line between life and death. They quickly said respectfully, "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Disciple Brother."
Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears smiled and said, "You don't need to be too scared. As long as we don't actively provoke him, he won't dare to actively provoke us, right? He also greatly respects Senior Disciple Brother."
Ling Ya Xian's spirits lifted, "That's right. Senior Disciple Brother is Master's direct disciple. No matter how powerful Bai Jin is, he's just an Outer Sect Disciple. This time, when Empress Nuwa preached the Dao, Master only brought Senior Disciple Brother and Senior Sister Wudang. He can only envy them from below."
Qiu Shou Xian also nodded repeatedly, a sense of security rising in his heart. That's right, there's Senior Disciple Brother.
Duobao said leisurely, "He went."
Ling Ya Xian was dumbfounded. He could even go to Empress Nuwa's Dao preaching? Was he still an Outer Sect Disciple?
Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears asked doubtfully, "Senior Disciple Brother, didn't Master only bring you and Senior Sister Wudang?"
"That's because he wasn't on the mountain at the time. Later, he went with Great God Fuxi. Empress Nuwa even postponed the Dao preaching to wait for him. After the preaching, she specifically asked Bai Jin about his insights, showing great care."
Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears exclaimed in disbelief, "How is that possible? What merit does Bai Jin have to receive the attention of a Saint?"
"Just by him guiding a Saint to enlightenment."
The three were all in a daze. Guiding a Saint to enlightenment?!
Duobao repeated what Bai Jin had said earlier.
Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears, Qiu Shou Xian, and Ling Ya Xian all felt their scalps tingle, as if they were about to explode. What kind of Outer Sect Disciple was this? To be able to guide a Saint to enlightenment?
Duobao said calmly, "Now you know! Although you are all Outer Sect Disciples, you and Bai Jin are not on the same level at all. If he continues like this, even I will not be qualified to be his opponent."
