Chapter 250 Conspiracy
That night, Bai Ke announced that he would test his skills against A-Can the next day, which made A-Can anxious all night.
As Ah-Can thought to himself, he had been training diligently during this period, so he shouldn't lose too badly in his "sparring" with his young master.
But then she thought, with her young master's terrifying cultivation level, if she couldn't even withstand ten moves with her own, her young master would surely teach her a lesson...
I should never have mentioned Su Ziyuan or Ling Xin'er!
Our young master is so handsome and dashing, he can be with whomever he wants. Even if he takes both of them, wouldn't it be a beautiful story that has been passed down through the ages?
Sigh, but does the young master prefer someone like Su Ziyuan or someone like Ling Xin'er?
Young Master is so outstanding, it's no wonder all the good girls like him. If I were a girl, I'd probably like him too. I wonder when I'll meet a good girl who likes me...
What's the point of thinking about girls? Whether I'll even get through tomorrow is still uncertain. I can only pray that my young master will show mercy tomorrow, at least when disciplining me…
Tossing and turning in bed thinking about these things, Ah Can finally managed to fall asleep in the middle of the night. In her dream, she saw the young master with his left hand on Su Ziyuan's shoulder and his right arm around Ling Xin'er's waist, the three of them watching her being punished by sweeping the entire Tian Ce Palace...
Ah-chan woke up from his dream almost at dawn. When he was washing up, he saw two dark circles under his eyes in the mirror, which made him even more worried.
Whether it was a blessing from heaven or a misfortune, Ah-Can did not receive a test of his cultivation from his young master. Instead, he and Bai Ke received a transmission talisman from Bai Ke's father.
Following the instructions of the communication talisman, Bai Ke took A Can to the sect's main hall.
Bai Ke originally thought that his father summoned him to give him the second task of participating in the Tian Ce Holy Son Selection, but why did he have to emphasize bringing A Can along?
Moreover, judging from the father's tone, an overwhelming sense of impatience was palpable.
Bai Ke found it somewhat amusing that his usually aloof and reserved father could also be so impatient.
When the two entered the sect's main hall, they found that not only were several elders present, but also several familiar sect disciples, including Su Ziyuan and Yu Lei.
As Su Ziyuan watched Bai Ke, dressed in a blue robe and tall and dashing, enter the hall, she quickly and discreetly turned her gaze to a stone pillar in the northwest corner of the hall, as if she were very interested in the simple and unadorned patterns on the pillar.
Bai Ke found it amusing to see Su Ziyuan's nonchalant attitude, but he didn't show it on his face. He led A-Can to bow to the elders and said, "Greetings, Sect Leader Ning, all senior uncles, and father."
Ah-Can also bowed and then obediently stood next to Bai-Ke.
Surprisingly, Xing Jian was the first to speak.
He first glanced at Bai Yan with a leisurely air, then coughed and said to Bai Ke, "You previously suggested that A-Can lead a team of sect disciples to that Tianlong Babu small world for trials, but it was delayed due to the sect disciple selection and the Tian Ce Saint Son trial."
"The reason I asked you to bring Ah Can along today is so that Ah Can can immediately lead these outstanding disciples of the sect in trials."
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to A-Can, who was standing next to Bai Ke, and said in a deep voice, "A-Can, you were highly recommended by Bai Ke's junior brother. I hope you can lead my sect's disciples to obtain opportunities in the Tian Long Ba Bu small world."
Finally, he added, "You mustn't let your senior brother Bai Ke and us elders down."
Ah Can was already on edge when he was suddenly summoned to the sect's main hall. After listening to Elder Xing Jian's "earnest" words, who had always been at odds with his young master, he became even more flustered.
However, having followed Bai Ke for so long, he remembered not to embarrass his young master at this crucial moment, so he proudly and loudly replied, "Yes, Elder, this disciple will certainly not let down the expectations of all the elders!"
That was true, but it sounded like he was challenging Xing Jian, so much so that Bai Ke almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and Xing Jian's face darkened, though he was naturally dark-skinned, so it wasn't very noticeable.
After listening to Xing Jian and A Can's words, and looking at the expressions on his father's and the other elders' faces, Bai Ke understood why his father had shown impatience when sending him the communication talisman.
So this is what Xing Jian did to get revenge on himself.
Judging from Xing Jian's words, he not only wanted to openly transfer his capable assistant, A Can, away from him at such a crucial moment as the Tian Ce Holy Son election, but also seemed to want to create some "accidents" during A Can's trip.
This old thing!
Bai Ke couldn't help but curse inwardly. He was the one who reported the Tianlong Babu Small World, he was the one who suggested that A-Can lead the team, and he even chose the people who went with A-Can. He really had no reason not to let them go.
But if Ah-Can really goes, it won't just be a matter of losing a capable assistant, because among those who are accompanying him, there are quite a few junior brothers and sisters who attended the banquet yesterday.
This is practically like cutting off your own left and right arms! The worst part is that you can't even say no.
Very well, let Ah Can lead his people on their training. If they encounter an opportunity that enhances their cultivation, it will be like adding an arm to his arm.
That old bastard Xing Jian is truly despicable.
Thinking of this, Bai Ke gave Xing Jian a very bright smile, as bright as a green sunflower.
He said, "To be honest with you all, in order to enable A-Can to cope with the situation in the Tianlong Babu Small World and to take on his responsibilities as captain, I have already intensified his training. A-Can will certainly live up to your expectations when we go to the Tianlong Babu Small World."
Upon hearing this, Xing Jian clenched his fists secretly, thinking to himself: "Hmph, what an ignorant brat! How dare he be so arrogant in front of me. If I can't deal with you, surely I can deal with your timid little follower. Just wait and see."
Bai Yan knew that Xing Jian was targeting his son, but his reasons were perfectly legitimate and he couldn't refuse, which made him very angry.
Ning Fengyi, as Bai Yan's good friend, and who also disliked Xing Jian to begin with, was also very angry.
When these two big shots get angry, their psychological balance tends to tip towards Bai Ke and A Can. So Ning Fengyi waved her hand and, on the grounds that the Tianlong Babu Small World is an unknown world and the road ahead is fraught with danger, allocated many treasures to A Can and his disciples.
