--- Chapter 175 ---
Baek Ain and others followed Xuan Yi to the Pill Tower.
As they approached the massive tower, several people caught a glimpse of their appearances. These people wondered what identities they had to get the Association Head of Pill Tower to escort them.
Some guessed wrongly.
Some guessed solemnly.
Some somehow despised them and made rude comments internally.
Ah, a group of ignorant fools.
Baek Ain didn't mind the gazes, but his disciples were different.
They are proud ladies and heiresses of Ancient Clans!
Not to mention, they are protective of their handsome teacher.
'You're not worthy to see my teacher!' Yao Ling'er snorted and released a wisp of Icy River Flame, creating a mist around them.
Huo Zhi leaked a sliver of her cultivation base, causing the surrounding area to tremble. Although it was just a tiny amount, the effect is effective against these small fries.
She's originally 6-Star Dou Venerate. However, Baek Ain's Training and Dou Di's Blood Purifying Pill pushed her to the peak stage of Dou Venerate Realm in just a month.
The only thing Huo Zhi lacks is a chance.
Yes, a chance to step into a Half-Saint Realm.
Gu Xun'er silently stared at her senior sisters and glanced down as her eyes glowed with a dim golden light. She was about to do something when Baek Ain's voice suddenly brushed her ears and others.
"You three, stop."
"Let them be."Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
"Don't lower your level too low."
"We'll listen to the teacher's arrangements." Yao Ling'er, Huo Zhi, and Gu Xun'er nodded.
Baek Ain shook his head helplessly, thinking how bizarre this cultivation world was. These people knew nothing about his identity but dared to think bad things in their hearts.
[Has eyes but cannot recognize Mount Tai!] Alicia commented indifferently.
"..." Baek Ain blinked his eyes.
'Stop it, that's cringe.'
[No, you're cringe, Host] Alicia countered immediately.
[Ah, look... I'm such a dignified teacher~!]
Baek Ain's expression froze awkwardly. He actually didn't expect this plan to grow in such a weird direction.
"They are powerful and could manipulate nature and space at will."
"However, even the most powerful Dou Saint couldn't fight against time..."
"Their creation is also the same."
"The Pill Realm's problem is precisely that. It stays for too long and erodes by the passage of time." Baek Ain closed his eyes. "And from what I know, the Pill Realm hasn't gotten maintained for a long time."
Xuan Yi was shocked. To think Baek Ain could find the source of the problem this easily.
At this very moment, a sense of respect different from the innate feelings of parasites genuinely grew in Xuan Yi's heart.
Baek Ain waved his hand and continued, "Don't worry much about the Pill Realm. I'll fix it later."
"Thank you, Master!" Xuan Yi excitedly bowed.
Pill Realm is one of Pill Tower's sacred domains. They couldn't afford to lose it.
They went to the underground with a teleportation array, and Baek Ain was "quickly." greeted by a swirling wormhole.
"The Pill Realm was beyond this wormhole." Xuan Yi said while stepping into the wormhole.
"Let's go, Master."
"Mhm." Baek Ain grasped Qing Lin's soft hand and pulled her in.
...
Baek Ain opened his mouth slowly, seeing the scenery of an ancient city surrounded by forest and rocky mountains.
"Space Creation, huh?" Baek Ain pondered to himself.
"Maybe I should solidify the skills I tested two months back."
A while ago at the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe, Baek Ain comprehended a deeper understanding of Spatial Strength.
Baek Ain suddenly smiled and sensed a familiar presence not far away.
He glanced at the south and saw a silver flash approaching them rapidly like a shooting star.
Opening his arm, Baek Ain laughed and waited patiently.
"AAAAIIIINNN!" Someone tackled Baek Ain down and hugged him tightly.
It was none other than Lan Rou.
After parting away for a few months, Lan Rou has become more refined as she recovered her cultivation to Half-Saint Realm. Her silky silver hair waved gently, and a sweet scent tickled Baek Ain's nostrils.
"I miss you..." Lan Rou whispered while leaning on his chest.
"What takes you so long?" She pouted at him.
Faced with such adorableness, Baek Ain melted and rubbed Lan Rou's head affectionately.
"Rou, I miss you too." He replied, kissing her forehead.
"Mmn~!"
