Chapter 359

~6 min read 1,040 words

As soon as these words were spoken, all the Cloud-Knights fell silent.

No more words were spoken.

Nor did they dare to block Baiheng's path again.

Because Baiheng had brought up Lin Qi's identity.

Now, on the entire Luo Fu, who did not know that Lin Qi was an Emanator?

And he was not someone easy to talk to.

If you angered the Xianzhou General, at most you would be locked in a dungeon.

If you offended Lin Qi, the outcome would be hard to say.

Therefore.

The Cloud-Knights were completely cowardly.

They no longer begged Baiheng incessantly as before.

Until just before Baiheng was about to leave.

Only then did a Cloud-Knight say loudly.

"Lady Baiheng, if you want to take the Arbor, you must part the ancient sea water; only then can you touch the root and take it out."

"So what?" Baiheng asked in confusion.

"Therefore, you must obtain the secret art that can part the ancient sea water," this Cloud-Knight continued, "And this secret art can only be performed by a High Elder. You must first become the High Elder before you can part the ancient sea water..."

The other Cloud-Knights' eyes lit up.

That's right.

There was still this trump card.

As long as Baiheng still wanted to complete the task Lin Qi had entrusted, she had to fulfill the prerequisite of becoming the High Elder.

Baiheng was stunned for a moment; she truly had not expected this prerequisite.

However, she did not choose to ask the other Cloud-Knights, but asked Fu Xuan behind her.

"Diviner Fu Xuan, is parting the ancient sea water truly that troublesome?" Baiheng asked.

In fact, regarding the Vidyadhara race, Baiheng was not very unfamiliar.

After all, during the High-Cloud Quintet period, she had often come into contact with the Vidyadhara race through Dan Feng.

It was just that she did not know much about the ancient sea that sealed the Arbor.

Fu Xuan nodded, "The Cloud-Knights are right; parting the ancient sea water does indeed require a secret art, but... the so-called secret art is actually just a relatively special power, or rather, it is relatively effortless in certain situations. Without the secret art, it is at most a bit troublesome."

"Lady Baiheng, if you have confidence in your ability, you can completely try it yourself."

"Then I understand."

Baiheng laughed lightly.

Actually, even if Fu Xuan had not said it, she was prepared to try it herself.

She would not easily believe the one-sided words of the Cloud-Knights.

Following that.

Baiheng ignored the dissuasion of the Cloud-Knights and walked directly to the statue of Imbibitor Lunae in the Scalegorge Waterscape.

The next moment.

A huge dragon-shaped phantom appeared above the Scalegorge Waterscape grotto-heaven.

This dragon shadow was huge.

It was enough to cover the entire Scalegorge Waterscape, and it could be called sky-blocking and sun-hiding.

The Cloud-Knights could not help but tremble slightly.

But it was not out of fear, but excitement.

"This is the true High Elder!"

"It has completely reproduced the history of my Vidyadhara race's glorious period!"

"May the Immortal Dragon God be above! Let me see the true High Elder in this lifetime!"

The Cloud-Knights were completely unable to remain calm.

At this moment.

They were not even thinking about whether Baiheng could part the sea.

Because it did not matter at all.

Just by this phantom alone.

It represented that Baiheng's power was one of the best in the Vidyadhara race.

As for parting the sea...

Rumble!

When the dragon-shaped phantom descended a beam of light containing strange energy, the entire ancient sea water began to surge, and at the core of the beam, it seemed as if there was some great terrifying object, causing the seawater to flee in a hurry.

In just a few blinks of an eye, a road buried beneath the Scalegorge Waterscape appeared.

The ancient sea water was thus parted!

Baiheng did not use any so-called secret method at all; she forcibly completed the parting of the ancient sea with her own power alone.

For a time.

All the Cloud-Knights fell silent again.

Because they knew that they no longer had anything they could use to persuade Baiheng.

In fact.

From the very beginning, letting Baiheng be the High Elder was just their wishful thinking.

It was nothing more than seeing that Baiheng was relatively easy to talk to and wanting to come over to try their luck.

What if Baiheng agreed?

The result was very realistic.

Baiheng did not care about the thoughts of these Cloud-Knights at all.

Ignoring the complex emotions of the Cloud-Knights.

Baiheng's dragon-shaped phantom moved again.

It arrived before the Arbor's root.

This was the first time the full appearance of the Arbor had been displayed before the world since the Vidyadhara race joined the Xianzhou.

It was just that it was the last time it would appear here on the Luo Fu.

It would become Lin Qi's trophy.

At this moment.

The Arbor's root emitted the power of Abundance, making it difficult for people to approach.

But this could not stump Baiheng at all.

With just one claw, that layer of Abundance protection was broken.

However, just as Baiheng was preparing to take the root away, a young woman in green with a not-so-tall figure appeared in her field of vision.

Before she could react, she heard Fu Xuan let out a cry of surprise.

"Qingque!"

Before the Luo Fu fell into great chaos, the first to go missing was Qingque.

Through analysis, as well as the interrogation of Phantylia.

Fu Xuan knew the reason for Qingque's disappearance.

She had been set up.

And then Phantylia learned the whereabouts of the Anywhere Door through her.

Afterward.

Phantylia, along with the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus and the Borisin, joined forces and infiltrated the Shackling Prison.

First, they found the Anywhere Door.

Then they released all the dangerous criminals inside, causing the Luo Fu to fall into chaos.

Right now.

The Luo Fu's problem was solved.

But Qingque was not yet free.

This was also Fu Xuan's instruction; she wanted to teach Qingque a lesson, to let her be more diligent in her work afterward and not put her mind into playing cards again.
