Chapter 138 - 138 Same Lineage?
138 Same Lineage?
Chao Bai didn’t answer Kong Rui’s question. He just stood where he was, as if thinking about something.
Kong Rui was already used to Chao Bai giving irrelevant answers from time to time, but he still seemed a little off.
Kong Rui didn’t intend to investigate these questions in detail here. It was more important to figure out who this place had harmed and if anyone else knew the way in!
If they continued to let others enter such a harmful place, who knew how many people would be hurt!
Kong Rui turned to face Chao Bai. “Do you have a way to destroy this place?”
Chao Bai didn’t understand what Kong Rui meant and stared at Kong Rui intently.
Kong Rui glanced at this creepy space and said coldly, “Letting this place continue to exist will only harm more people. Moreover, other than Zi Xuan, there are others who know the way in. It’s not safe.”
Chao Bai seemed to be listening to Kong Rui, but he also seemed distracted.
Seeing that Chao Bai didn’t react for a long time, Kong Rui asked again, “Is there a problem?”
Chao Bai finally said, “I can make this place yours.”
Kong Rui blinked, as if she didn’t understand Chao Bai’s words for a moment. After a while, she asked, “You’re saying that you can set up another restriction in this space to prevent others from coming over?”
Chao Bai shook his head. “No! I can make this space completely yours!”
As soon as Chao Bai finished speaking, he formed a hand seal and silently chanted a series of incantations.
Before Kong Rui could react, everything in front of her changed rapidly.
She blinked and tried her best to adapt to the change in front of her. In just a few seconds, the space filled with the smell of blood suddenly lit up.
The mottled marks on the wall turned into protruding shapes. They were totems that Kong Rui had never seen before.
Kong Rui looked at the space in front of her in disbelief. “How did you do it?”
Chao Bai shook his head. “It’s just a small trick. This place is from the same lineage as the spell technique I cultivate. Using the original design of this place, it’s very simple to change.”
As Kong Rui looked at everything in front of her, she couldn’t help but feel that Chao Bai was showing off!
She probably wouldn’t be able to reach this level even if she cultivated for a few more years. However, what Chao Bai said made Kong Rui very concerned.
“You said that the space here is from the same lineage as the spell technique you cultivate? Then you’re from the same sect? You’re…” Kong Rui pointed at Chao Bai in disbelief.
However, Chao Bai slapped Kong Rui’s finger away and said in disdain, “Don’t associate me with these unorthodox things! They used some unorthodox methods to obtain unorthodox spells, so this place is in a mess!”
Kong Rui was still skeptical even after she heard Chao Bai’s words.
Was she too blindly trusting of Chao Bai?
Although she had seen Chao Bai on Spirit Mountain, she had never asked about his identity. Although Chao Bai had saved her a few times, it didn’t mean that this person was definitely on the same side as her!
Kong Rui’s sudden realization made her frown.
Chao Bai also noticed the change in Kong Rui’s mood. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “What strange things are you thinking about?”
Kong Rui didn’t intend to make it too obvious, so she only said, “It’s nothing. It’s just that you’re very impressive, which surprised me.”
Chao Bai clearly didn’t believe Kong Rui’s words, but he didn’t intend to probe further. “I’ll change the restrictions outside. In the future, you can use this place as your alchemy room.”
