Chapter 119: Baole Returns

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Almost at the moment the person who discovered the hidden words opened his mouth, White Deer Branch College’s Chancellor noticed the note, which he had overlooked previously in his rage.

He picked up the note, and after taking a look at it, blue veins bulged on his forehead. He looked toward Zhao Yameng and stared hard at her before throwing the note toward the old physician, angrier than ever.

“Chancellor Lu, you owe me an explanation!”

Upon reading the note, the old physician laughed bitterly at the words on it.

“Zhao Yameng, please get the Chancellor to hold onto the puppets for me safely. Don’t forcefully pull them away as they will implode.”

Behind those words were also several lines of inscriptions.

The inscriptions described the method to release the puppets. Unless it was someone who understood how to unlock inscriptions from the Dharmic Armament faculty, it was impossible to unlock it in a short time. The Chancellor from White Deer Branch College, though relatively formidable in his training, was not as well-versed in inscriptions compared to the old physician. As he stared angrily at the old physician, the old physician let out a dry cough.

“Everyone, calm down...” He had just finished his sentence when another wave of disturbing sounds emerged from the entrance of the Spirit Breath Village a distance away. Everyone was confused as a student from White Deer Dao College, surrounded by puppets, appeared in front of the masses.

Instantly, the expression of the Chancellor from White Deer Dao College dropped even further. From the information that he had received regarding Ethereal Dao College and the words that Zhao Yameng had said previously, he and the other two Chancellor knew in their hearts who had committed the deeds.

The old physician had a headache. Seeing the involvement of the puppets, he did not need to think too hard to know that Wang Baole was responsible.

“This incident... if I were to explain...” The old physician cleared his throat again, wanting to feign ignorance, but before he could even finish, disturbing sounds spread from afar once more.

The anger in the three Chancellor’s eyes grew more prominent. The old physician pretended not to notice and hurriedly spoke.

“Actually, there could be a misunderstanding here...”

“Uh... Hmm...”

Before he could even finish, disturbing noises were heard again. This time, three figures returned together.

The scene made the three Chancellors so angry that they were about to explode. The old physician slapped his forehead and sighed.

“Let me save him, and I’ll explain later!”

Speaking, he stepped forward toward Li Yi. Raising his right hand, he released Li Yi from the crutches of the puppets. However, he could not shut off the noise, and he did not want to forcefully destroy the puppets, so he left the puppets moaning disturbingly.

Thereafter, he released Wu Fen and the others. With the help of students from the various Dao Colleges, they quickly regained consciousness. After noticing the uneasy gazes thrown at them by the onlookers, recalling what had happened before they fainted, and hearing the disturbing noises made by the puppets, they were shocked and screamed while covering their faces.

“Wang Baole, it’s not over between the both of us!”

“Chancellor, Wang Baole did this!”

“Chancellor, please give me justice!”

The people involved immediately shouted. Wu Fen, the black-faced youth, and the others roared angrily in their rage. Curses toward Wang Baole emerged from their mouths unendingly.

Even though the surrounding students from the three other Dao Colleges had been relatively certain in their minds that the culprit was Wang Baole, they had not experienced the incident personally. Even among those who had experienced it, nobody wanted to admit it for fear that Wang Baole would take revenge. After all, Wang Baole’s methods were considered cruel to the majority of the people.

However, right now, since someone had spoken, the discussions erupted.

“Chancellor, Wang Baole is extremely lowly! He peeped at us bathing!”

“Chancellor, Wang Baole snatched my five-inch Spirit Root! That was something I met after battling with all my heart. However, Wang Baole hid at the side, not only snatching it away, but also injuring me!”

“Chancellor! I want to report Wang Baole! He severely injured Zhuo Yixian, leaving him stuck at the seven-inch Spirit Root!”

“Chancellor...”

Complaints surfaced like waves hitting rocks, crashing loudly without pause. They grew numerous and overwhelming, and toward the end, the surrounding students from the other three Dao College, regardless of whether or not they had met Wang Baole before, were all scolding him angrily, pushing the blame to him, creating an imposing scene.

The scene shocked the Chancellors from the four major Dao Colleges. They had never imagined that Wang Baole would instill so much hatred in the people. Wang Baole’s seduction of the thousands of Spirit Roots involved many that were fated with other people. The betrayal and changes in those Spirit Roots unwittingly transformed into immense hatred.

That was compounded by the fact that those Spirit Roots had been unable to locate Wang Baole and began to disperse throughout the area, filling the entire landscape with figures of him. That seemed to form a reminder for those depressed students, causing them to be frustrated yet constantly reminded.

Of course, among the group, there were also many who had never interacted with Wang Baole previously. However, due to jealousy and the desire to participate in the commotion, they all began to comment as well.

It was becoming chaotic with activity, with many students exchanging comments and airing their displeasure. The trio from Ethereal Dao College looked at each other and then at the old physician without saying a word.

That gave the old physician pressure. He was laughing bitterly internally. He had not felt that Wang Baole was so annoying to people previously, but he had never thought that when he was placed within the crowd, he would cause so much displeasure.

As his headache throbbed on and the sounds of discussions grew even louder, the accompanying cultivators from the four major Dao Colleges who were guarding the entrance let out a loud scream!

“There’s a flying object approaching!”

“Quiet down! A mysterious object is approaching!”

“It looks big, and it doesn’t seem to be a student!”

The shouts from the Spirit Breath Village entrance immediately caught the attention of the Chancellors from the four major Dao Colleges. It would not have caused much fanfare in the past, but since the glow and changes had occurred in the Spirit Breath Village previously, they were especially alert, and they all turned their heads toward the sky.

The surrounding students also stopped their discussions, looking nervously in the same direction.

Just as they placed their attention on it, they immediately saw that at the entrance of Spirit Breath Village, there was a twenty-foot-tall, thirty-foot-wide object flying toward them.

Magnetic forces surrounded the object. It was shimmering, which made it difficult to take a clear look at. Its speed was fast, and as it charged closer toward the area, it slowly became clearer.

“What is it?”

“It seems like a huge pail...”

“That can’t be right. It’s not a pail... There seem to be people hanging around it.”

“The pail contains lots of materials... Gosh, I think I saw an alchemical cauldron in it!”

Waves of shocked voices emerged from the crowd. As the object neared, the old physician noticed a figure largely covered by the pail. After it was revealed that it was a rotund figure, he drew a deep breath, his face conveying a look of bewilderedness and shock. The three other Chancellors beside him also recognized the figure after taking a closer look. Instinctively, they wanted to start reprimanding, but they were instead dumbfounded by the gains that far exceeded their imaginations.

Soon, sharp-eyed students also noticed the rotund body. They rubbed their eyes and took another look before wanting to scream but being unable to do so.

“That is... that’s Wang Baole!”

The moment they spoke, Wang Baole’s low growl could be heard emerging from behind the large pail.

“Those in front, make way! Don’t block me, I don’t know how to stop this! It’s dangerous!”

As his voice spread, the students from the four major Dao Colleges in the plaza saw Wang Baole clearly. Instinctively, they spread out, creating a path, as their minds buzzed with activity.

The instant that they spread out, Wang Baole, who was surrounded by the magnetic force, charged forward at an ever increasing speed. With a loud boom, he passed the entrance of Spirit Breath Village, creating a sonic boom, as he instantly appeared in the plaza.

The magnetic force dissipated, but due to inertia, when Wang Baole landed on the ground, he caused the earth to shake several times due to the weight and the immense speed. He hugged the large pail and tumbled hundreds of feet before stopping. He then placed the large pail on the ground, causing a loud thump.

After that, Wang Baole turned his head while huffing and puffing. Wiping off his perspiration, he looked at the crowd, instantly noticing that the people surrounding him—regardless of whether they were students, the hundreds of accompanying cultivators, the Chancellors from the four major Dao College, or even the elites and old powerhouses from the respective Dao Colleges who arrived thereafter—were all looking at him as if they had seen a ghost.

Looking at the shock on the people’s faces, Wang Baole was extremely delighted. He cleared his throat, wanting to say a few humble words, but even before he could do that, a deafening commotion and activity that seemed to be able to shake the heavens and earth suddenly erupted, instantly drowning Wang Baole within it.
