Chapter 416: Heading to the Desert Lands

However, he had not walked far before he saw Feng Feng Yunzheng and the others rushing over in a hurry.

"Master, why have you come?"

Lin Bai looked at the group with curiosity.

"I heard you got into a fight and feared you might suffer a loss, so I came."

"Rest assured, today Master is here; Master will stand up for you."

Feng Feng Yunzheng sized Lin Bai up, then spotted Lin Lin Yunzhong and Seeing Wei Xiang not far away, a hint of warning in his eyes.

Even if Seeing Wei Xiang was arrogant and did not take Shanfeng of the Zong Sect into account, Feng Feng Yunzheng was, after all, an Elder.

Merely the pressure from the other party made Seeing Wei Xiang nervously lower his head.

"Master, who told you that? We didn't fight; I remember the warning you gave me last time."

"I simply came to collect a mission."

Holding the mission token in his hand, Lin Bai shook it with a smile.

"Stop."

Upon seeing the token in Lin Bai's hand, Feng Feng Yunzheng shouted loudly.

Lin Bai was stunned and quickly stopped his shaking arm.

"You, you, you."

Feng Feng Yunzheng, incredulous, gripped the token tightly in his hand.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Lin Bai looked at the token; he had not taken the wrong one.

"Senior brother, have you gone mad, or has a month of cultivation made you foolish? This is a Hell-level 【mission】."

"Moreover, this mission has not been accepted by anyone for at least ten years."

"Not a single person who accepted the mission before has returned."

"How could you accept it?"

Wang Wang Yuping wore a worried expression.

"Lin Bai, tell Master: did someone provoke you and guide you into accepting this?"

"If so, Master will go immediately and cancel this mission for you."

Feng Feng Yunzheng spoke earnestly, occasionally glancing back at Lin Lin Yunzhong.

Lin Lin Yunzhong cried out internally that he was wronged; he did not want to accept it either; Lin Bai had forced him.

"Master, rest assured; no one forced me; I accepted it of my own free will."

"Just because others cannot do it does not mean I cannot."

Lin Bai blinked his eyes and quickly withdrew the token into his spatial storage.

"You rascal, you truly do not let your master rest easy."

"Very well, since you are unharmed, come with me back to Shanfeng of the Zong Sect."

Feng Feng Yunzheng shook his head helplessly.

He glanced at Lin Bai once, then turned and left the spot.

Lin Bai followed closely behind, returning together with Wang Wang Yuping and the others.

And the news that Lin Bai had accepted a Hell-level mission and made a wagering agreement with Lin Lin Yunzhong quickly spread throughout the Zong Sect.

Elders from the various peaks had all received the news.

Yet no one came out to intervene, because they all wanted to see who would win this wager.

But Shanfeng of the Zong Sect was not at peace.

"Lin Bai, have you gone mad? How could you make such a wager with them?"

When Feng Feng Yunzheng received the news, he was absolutely furious.

He never expected Lin Bai to act so recklessly.

Not only did he accept the mission, but he also made a wager with Lin Lin Yunzhong and the others; was he not joking with his own future?

"Master, calm down first; I guarantee I will not lose this time, nor will I disgrace you, my elder."

Lin Bai stepped forward and helped him into his seat.

"Is this about winning or losing? Do you know that the thousand-year Snake Beauty's cultivation base has long since reached the Decay Realm?"

"How can you, a Myriad Phenomena Realm cultivator, possibly defeat him?"

"One wrong move, and you will lie in eternal slumber there."

Feng Feng Yunzheng naturally could not bear to see such a talented disciple perish.

"Master, just rest assured."

"Have you forgotten? I once crossed four major realms to kill a Supreme Realm powerhouse."

"How do you know I cannot create a miracle this time?"

"Moreover, rest assured; I will prioritize my life; if things go badly, I will run immediately."

Lin Bai patted his own chest, not forgetting to knead Feng Feng Yunzheng's shoulders.

"Very well; when you arrived, I should have known you were one who would not obey orders; go ahead then."
