Chapter 220: Chapter 197, Bai Jin Seeks Help

Bai Jin’s heart suddenly panicked, now feeling extremely fearful toward these words, he said dryly: "Master has indeed been very good to his disciple."

Tongtian spoke with affection, "Bai Jin! You also know your teacher isn’t good at scheming. In the future, when you encounter such situations, you can directly seek out your Eldest Uncle or Second Master. You must trust them. Your two masters are very fond of you."

Bai Jin was dumbstruck, staring blankly at his kindly-faced Master. What happened to our profound master-disciple affection? What happened to never abandoning each other? What happened to your promise to protect me until the Infinite Calamity? Faced with this small difficulty, you give up?!

"By the way, your teacher had a sudden insight, planning to enter seclusion to seek Enlightenment. Recently, you should not come here. It wouldn’t hurt to visit your two masters more often to express your filial piety."

"Master~" Bai Jin called out in despair.

With a swing of Tongtian’s hand, Bai Jin’s figure immediately disappeared within the grand hall, traversing endless time and space, far away from the East Sea.

Tongtian sat within Biyou Palace for a moment, muttering to himself with distress, "Of all people to provoke, why did it have to be those two? Trouble, indeed!"

Thinking of the terrifying aura emitted by Ping Xin and Nuwa during the sports meet, Tongtian also felt a bit scared, and spoke out, "Wudang!"

The figure of Wudang Saint appeared outside Biyou Palace, gracefully walked in, and made a curtsey, saying, "Greetings to Master!"

"Wudang, go to the Artifact Refining Hall for me, fetch the Array Map of Slaughter Immortal Array and God Slaying Array. Deliver them respectively to Wa Emperor Heaven and the Underworld, into the hands of Nuwa and Ping Xin. Just say that Bai Jin is young, and please continue to take good care of him in the future."

"Yes!" Wudang Saint respectfully acknowledged and turned to leave.

...

Elsewhere, Bai Jin’s figure appeared above the Primordial Continent, feeling like crying without tears. There’s no such Master like this! To abandon without lending aid.

After a moment of sorrow, he headed towards Shouyang Mountain. Now, he could only rely on his Eldest Uncle.

Great Master Xuan Du stood atop Shouyang Mountain gazing into the distance, followed by a valiant young man.

As soon as Bai Jin landed on the mountain peak, Great Master Xuan Du stepped forward to greet him, making a gesture of courtesy with a smile and said, "Greetings to Senior Brother!"

Bai Jin returned the gesture and said, "Greetings to Senior Brother!"

Both straightened up, Bai Jin looked toward the valiant youth behind Xuan Du and asked, "Who might this be?"

"He is Zhu Ganglie, the new disciple I have recently taken in."

A thought flashed in Bai Jin’s mind, Zhu Ganglie, would he be Zhu Bajie in the future? One of the main characters of the Westward Journey!

The young man quickly made a curtsey and said, "Zhu Ganglie pays respects to Senior Uncle!"

Bai Jin stroked his chin, helplessly saying, "Time spares no one! In a blink of an eye, I’ve actually become a Senior Uncle, old, so old!"

Xuandu’s smile returned, "In Cultivation there is no such thing as time, it is meaningless to us."

Bai Jin extended a hand and a suit of armor appeared in his palm, he said, "Senior Uncle doesn’t have much to offer, this armor was a gift from my own Senior Uncle before. Now I have no use for it, I’ll pass it on to you, hope in the future you cultivate diligently and uphold the honor of the Human Sect!"

Zhu Ganglie looked somewhat fearful towards Xuan Du.

Xuan Du nodded with a smile and said, "Since your Senior Uncle gave it to you, just accept it. Your Senior Uncle has quite a lot of good things."

Bai Jin rolled his eyes and said, "Senior Brother, that makes me sound like a rich landlord."

Xuan Du laughed out loud and said, "Senior Brother is amusing."

Zhu Ganglie immediately knelt on a rock with his hands held high respectfully, "Thank you, Senior Uncle!"

Bai Jin placed the small armor set in Zhu Ganglie’s hands and said, "Get up!"

Zhu Ganglie hurriedly got up, gripping his cloak tightly, unable to let go, his expression filled with excitement. Armor, the romance of a male immortal!

"Senior Brother, Master has been waiting for you for a long time," said Xuandu, gesturing with his hand.

Bai Jin walked inside, approaching the Eight Sceneries Palace, then immediately ran inside, crying out, "Master, save me!"

He rushed in and flung himself onto a meditation cushion, wailing, "Master, Master doesn’t want me anymore, I’ve been kicked out."

Taishang looked down at Bai Jin, who couldn’t squeeze out a single tear, and felt amused. "Tell me! What big thing have you done now? Even Tongtian has kicked you out, have you scattered all of Tongtian’s disciples?"

"I had the idea but haven’t put it into action yet!"

"Keep it up, your Master has faith in you!"

"Uh!" Bai Jin looked up, heartbrokenly saying, "Master, now it’s Master who has kicked me out."

"Get up and speak slowly, your Master will decide for you," Taishang said gently.

Bai Jin stood up and sat cross-legged on the cushion, saying, "Right now, it is the era of the Human Emperor certification. Ping Xin Niangniang wants me to help the Witch People fight for the position of the Human Emperor, while Nuwa wants me to help the current Human Lord become Co-Emperor to destroy the Witch People.

Now I am caught between two mothers, I can’t afford to offend either, and helping either one would lead to my death!" He looked pitifully at the Eldest Uncle.

Cough cough~

Taishang coughed and looked at Bai Jin speechlessly. Bai Jin looked expectantly at Taishang, thinking it all depends on you now, Master! You must save me!

Taishang said helplessly, "Bai Jin, the fact that you’re still alive between those two is already a miracle in the Primordial World!"

"Master, are you praising me?"

"What do you think?!" Taishang said with irritation.

Bai Jin shrank his neck, feeling as if that wasn’t quite the case.

After a moment of thought, Taishang said, "Ping Xin wants to help the Witch People gain the esteemed position of the Human Emperor in order to connect the destiny of the Witch People with the Human Clan, blessing the Witch People. That’s her goal.

Fu Xi was reincarnated from the Witch People, so the Witch People already occupy the position of the Heavenly Emperor. The position of the Human Emperor is not essential to Ping Xin now.

What she wants is for the Witch People to completely merge with the Human Clan, and if another Human Emperor emerges in the process, it would be ideal.

As for Nuwa, having been outwitted by Ping Xin once before, she would not be content. Given her style, she will surely strike back, and you are likely just one of the pawns in her scheme."

Bai Jin thoughtfully said, "For the Witch People to merge into the Human Clan, I think I understand what to do now!"

Taishang smiled and said, "Since you understand, then go and do it! Your Master is planning to retreat and forge a sword soon, if there’s any issue, go find your Second Master."

"Yes!" Bai Jin stood up, bowed respectfully, and turned to leave the hall.

With words from the Senior Master, it felt like a revelation, instantly showing him the way forward. As long as the aim of Ping Xin Niangniang is achieved, the position of the Human Emperor becomes unimportant, right? That should be the case!

After leaving Kunlun Mountain, Bai Jin went to visit Xuanyuan in Chen first and then headed to the Jiuli Clan.

On the vast expanse of the northwestern Primordial World, rugged fortresses dot the landscape. Men riding various mounts rushed through, this is the Jiuli Tribe of the Witch People.

Bai Jin had just arrived near the Jiuli Tribe, yet before having a chance to explore, a towering figure instantly appeared before Bai Jin.

Bai Jin hurriedly bowed in greeting and said, "I’ve seen Great Witch Xingtian!"

Xingtian nodded slightly and said indifferently, "Your purpose here has already been relayed to me by the Holy Mother, follow me!"
