Chapter 2556: Chapter 120: Life and Death Six Harmonies, Bai Yu Has Time (Part 3)
It’s not just about cultivation, not just about the realm, but also music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, as well as character and morals, treating others... In every aspect, one must be beyond reproach.
However, Bai Yuxia left without a word, clearly disregarding the heavy responsibilities of the family, displaying behavior utterly devoid of responsibility.
Bai Pingfu has publicly scolded him several times already. When Bai Yuxia returns, he must be taught a lesson to make him remember. He might even be punished to guard the Fallen Immortal Forest at night.
But as Bai Yuxia wandered, several months passed without a trace, as if he intended never to return...
Bai Pingfu has silently lowered the punishment level several times; at worst, when the rascal returns, he would just put up an act. No matter his attitude, he couldn’t even get a letter from the Feng Family.
He was very disappointed in that unfilial son, not wanting to deal with him anymore. But as the Family Head, he certainly had the responsibility to be concerned about the heir, so reluctantly, he sent several subordinates to quietly search abroad...
"Let him die out there and never come back!"
On this day, he habitually had a fierce argument with his nagging old wife. Bai Pingfu stormed into the study, and then he never came out again...
...
...
In the Bai Family’s head’s study.
On the fine flowing cloud spring chair, Bai Pingfu, with his elegant face, sat with closed eyes.
His hair was meticulously groomed, posture upright as usual... just as he was in life.
Zhang Linchuan slowly washed his hands, dried them with his own handkerchief, and then slowly walked to the bookshelf to pick his spoils.
It must be said that a renowned family head like Bai Pingfu, an experienced God Arrives, has considerable power, requiring quite an effort to avoid causing a commotion—
Had he gone to kill Bai Yuxia first, it would have been much easier.
However, Bai Pingfu’s strength, accumulated over time, still showed a gap compared to Zhang Xun, a genius of rare talent.
At the Zhang’s old residence in Dan Country, he first quietly set up the World Without Life and then planted the evil seed using the [Past Life] Divine Skills, yet Zhang Xun pierced through his left palm... Ultimately, he had to rely on Zhang Family’s elixir to recover.
Of course, the premise for him to get injured and feel inconvenienced was that he had to control the battlefield and prevent the commotion from spreading. Otherwise, if both Zhang Xun and Bai Pingfu were put together, he could kill them without a scratch.
Having once reached the vision of a True God, it is naturally incomparable to the False God level.
Now, Bai Pingfu’s spirit is being "judged" in the World Without Life, and only after the judgment will he be "digested."
He must carefully sort out everything he learned from Bai Pingfu to see how he could perfectly trigger the fourth calamity and also see if there were better opportunities in Yue Country.
During the wait for digestion, he decided to read some books.
As a Sect Hierarch, his upper limit determines the sect’s upper limit. Although he compiled the "Wusheng Sutra," preached to hundreds of thousands, combining Divine Master, Daozhu, and Sect Hierarch, he is clear-headed, understanding that it’s only a temporary doctrine, not an eternal classic. If he can’t learn from others’ strengths, if he can’t maintain progress for long, the "Wusheng Sutra" would lose its significance for preaching.
Though the sect has now become extinct, he cannot relax his demands on himself.
Langya Bai’s Family must have fine taste.
He stood straight at the bookshelf, quietly browsing a book titled "Record of the Journey to the West." This book deconstructs fantasy myths and is quite intriguing.
Meanwhile, the sunlight streaming through the skylight bathed both the standing and sitting persons.
One alive, one dead.
Yet both equally belonged to the peace within this portrait.
However, a voice perhaps worth calling jarring rudely broke this peace—
"I say, did you really come over just to read books? Aren’t you planning to do something else? I’ve been waiting so long I’m getting sleepy!"
Zhang Linchuan raised his eyebrows in mild surprise, tilting his head to see a youth in scholarly attire with an intriguingly ancient face, who somehow appeared in the room, watching him with curiosity.
