C1751 Trimester

The whole place was silent, the air as still as iron. Although Gu Taixu, Wu Xuan, and the Battle Mage didn't say much, as time passed, their eyes revealed a trace of killing intent.

Not only them, but Lin Bai himself was very clear that if he rejected Gu Taixu's suggestion, then what awaited him would inevitably be a battle of life and death! The reason was very simple, because there were only a few pieces of the Mysterious Ancient Jade. Regardless of whether Lin Bai wanted to go to Karakorum or not, Gu Taixu and the rest had to go. However, if they wanted to open Kunlun's sealed gates, they must first collect all the Ancient Profound Jades. Therefore, if Lin Bai did not want to participate, they could only go and obtain them by force.

Time ticked on, and in his heart, Lin Bai's thoughts were constantly changing. Lin Bai was indeed rather curious about the hidden history. He really wanted to know, what exactly was hidden in the history of China! To Lin Bai, this was indeed a great opportunity. As long as he could obtain something from the Kunlun Mountains, it would definitely be able to raise his strength by several levels.

But if he went to Kunlun, no one knew what kind of dangers were hidden there. No one knew whether he would be able to retreat safely after entering Kunlun! Furthermore, Lin Bai had no doubt that once they entered the Kunlun Mountains, Gu Taixu, Wu Xuan, and the Mentor would no longer be united as enemies. Disputes were inevitable.

Although there were great benefits, it was accompanied by great risks. If they were not dealt with well, there would be no turning over!

"I'll join!" After a moment of silence, Lin Bai gritted his teeth and finally came to a decision. It was as he had said, there were very few times in life where one had to struggle hard, and if one missed this opportunity, even if one wanted to expend all their energy to find it, it would be impossible to find it again. Moreover, the matter at hand, to raise one's strength, was indeed a matter that was imminent.

Only the higher one's strength was, the more dangers one would be able to resist. Only then would one be able to better protect their own family and prevent any accidents from happening to them! With his current strength, he still had some distance to go if he wanted to do this perfectly. Although there was a high chance of encountering danger on his way to the Kunlun Mountains. However, wealth comes from risk. There was still a chance to try. If they didn't fight, they wouldn't even have a chance.

"Fellow Daoist Mu is truly quick to speak!" After Gu Taixu heard this, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief. To be honest, he did not want to be enemies with Lin Bai at the moment, especially after seeing Lin Bai's methods. He did not want to start a dispute with Lin Bai at this critical moment, so naturally, it would be best if Lin Bai agreed to his invitation.

"Since Fellow Mu is so straightforward, then let's forget about our past conflicts. We hope that Fellow Mu can let bygones be bygones. Let's work together and investigate Mount Kunlun!" After hearing Gu Taixu's words, Wu Xuan and Battle Mage let out a sigh of relief. A smile appeared on their faces and they intentionally pretended to be friendly as they smiled and said to Lin Bai.

"Once the words are spoken, the knot in my heart will unravel." Gu Taixu chuckled, and after looking around, he smiled and said, "Fellow Taoist Mu, please do not worry. Today, we will keep this a secret between you, the Hidden Alliance, and Jiang Ling a secret. Don't worry, I won't let the outside world know about it, and I won't let the Spiritual Spring Sect find trouble with you. We're all friends! "

Lin Bai smiled but did not say anything. However, he felt a wave of disgust in his heart. He was very clear that Gu Taixu's so-called good intentions were not actually good intentions, but merely hypocritical actions driven by benefits. If the one who survived today wasn't him, but Jiang Ling, Gu Taixu would unhesitatingly throw out an olive branch at Jiang Ling to suppress the matter.

To say the truth, all of this was for the sake of benefits. There was simply no friendship at all.

"I can go with you to Karakorum, but I have a condition." After chuckling, Lin Bai suddenly broke the silence, glanced over the crowd, and said slowly, "But we have to delay our trip to Karakorum for a few days, I still have some things to do in the near future, after I'm done, we'll go together. May I know what's your opinion on this matter? "

Even though he had investigated Kunlun to the end to find out the hidden history, it was something that Lin Bai yearned for in his heart. However, compared to saving Chen Baian and Wook'e's life, this was still a little lacking.

His power could slowly increase, but his friends could only live once, not to mention for someone as close as Chen Baian and Wook'e. If he delayed their rescue because of the matter in Karakorum, even if he could find out all the secrets and obtain an incredible fortune, Lin Bai definitely wouldn't be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.

Moreover, he had been separated from the girls for too long. He owed them too much, so he wanted to give himself some time to do something that could compensate the girls. He wanted to be by their side and comfort the pain of parting for the past year.

To Gu Taixu and the others, the benefits were greater than the benefits, but to Lin Bai, the benefits were more important than anything else in this world! Without a protector, the rise in his cultivation was meaningless to Lin Bai.

"Fellow Daoist Mu, I'm afraid your words are a bit inappropriate!" As soon as Lin Bai's words fell, Wu Xuan and the Mentor's eyes immediately filled with rage. He said coldly, "I really can't think of anything else that could be compared to investigating Mount Kunlun. Fellow Daoist Mu, don't tell me that you have other intentions in your heart that are purposely trying to trick us? "

"Fellow Daoist Mu, I wonder what exactly has happened to you, and how long are you going to push the time forward?" Upon hearing this, Gu Taixu's face showed displeasure. He couldn't understand what Lin Bai wanted, so he suppressed the displeasure in his heart and slowly asked.

"Just what is it that makes it inconvenient for me to tell these people, but what I can say is that these things are extremely important to me." If you can't extend it, then I definitely won't agree to this trip to Karakorum. If you are really going to force me, then even if we fight to the death, I will not compromise at all. I hope that you will respect my opinion. "

Laughing lightly, Lin Bai continued, "As for the timing, I think we should postpone it to three months later."

After saying this, Lin Bai slowly raised his head. His eyes stared straight at the unfriendly Wu Xuan and the Mastermind, but there was no fear in them at all. This gaze made people not doubt anything. If Gu Taixu and the rest didn't agree with Lin Bai's decision and insisted on forcing Lin Bai to follow them to Mount Kunlun as soon as possible, even if this was a battle of life and death, Lin Bai would not retreat at all.

"You with the surname Mu, don't go too far!" Do you really think that you can go against the rules just by killing Kong Fang and Jiang Ling?! Let me tell you, although your methods are mysterious, we are not afraid! So what if you really want to do it? However, if you end up as a dead man, you can't blame anyone else! " Wu Xuan sneered coldly when he saw this and berated faintly.

"I naturally know in my heart how strong I am." When Lin Bai saw this, he instantly changed his stance, saying indifferently, "But even if I'm really weak, if I bring you two down with me, I still have the confidence to die with me!"

Hearing Lin Bai's words, Wu Xuan and Mentor felt like their lungs were about to explode from anger. They wished that they could kill Lin Bai directly! The atmosphere in the hall became increasingly quiet. At that moment, the tense atmosphere once again engulfed the entire arena.

"Fellow Daoists, please calm down." Seeing that the atmosphere had tensed up again, Gu Taixu hesitated a little before saying slowly, "Even though it's already the beginning of summer, the land of Karakorum is still covered in ice and snow. If we go there, there will be a lot of trouble. After three months, the autumn will be much better and the snow will melt. This will also make the journey less obstructed, otherwise, three months will be better. "

"Since Mountain Master Gu has spoken, then we'll agree to your conditions." After hearing Gu Taixu's words, Wu Xuan and Master Battle looked at each other, turned and stared at Lin Bai, and slowly said: "But if you dare to make all sorts of excuses in three months time, intentionally delaying for time, when that time comes, don't blame us for not showing face, and not being polite anymore!"

"Fellow Daoist Mu, the two seniors Wu Xuan and Master Fan are anxious about the matter at Karakorum. Don't take it to heart, just open your mouth and it will be fine." Gu Taixu smiled gently again, and then he changed the topic of the conversation as if he was not paying attention to anything else, and said lightly: "It's just a mouth of a man, an oath is called an oath if you keep it, if you are like Jiang Ling, you are just speaking empty words. The matter of Mount Kunlun is extremely important. If Fellow Daoist Mu fails to keep your promise after three months, then don't blame me for not keeping your secret. "

"I will naturally keep my promise. Don't worry about it!" Lin Bai smiled noncommittally and cupped his hands towards Gu Taixu, saying slowly, "Since the matter has been made clear, then I can leave now, right?"

"If Fellow Daoist Mu has matters to attend to, we naturally cannot obstruct him." We'll meet again in three months, and then we'll conspire against each other. " Hearing Lin Bai's words, Gu Taixu smiled lightly, cupped his hands, and said.

"Calm down, Fellow Daoist Mu. I still have something to ask of you." Just as Lin Bai was about to turn around and leave, Tie Yuan, who had been hesitating at the side, suddenly took a few steps forward. Just as Lin Bai was about to turn around, Tie Yuan, who had been hesitating at the side, suddenly took a few steps forward.

"I'm likely going to disappoint you, Elder Iron. You can't spread this art of viewing the spirit." Compared to Gu Taixu and company, they still had a good impression of Tie Yuan Lin Bai. After seeing this, they awkwardly smiled and said. What kind of joke was this? His so-called spiritual visualization technique was in fact the ability of the Forbidden Snake to sense. How could it be considered a technique? How could it be passed on to others?

"It's me, Meng Lang. It's impossible to spread a secret art like that." The light in Tie Yuan's eyes dimmed when he heard this. He smiled bitterly before cupping his hands towards Lin Bai and saying, "In that case, goodbye. I hope everything will go well for you, fellow Mu."

"Elder Iron, no need to be disappointed. If this method can be spread out, I'll be the first to hand it over to you, and I swear that I'll find you a stone with top quality spirit stones in your lifetime to fulfill your wish!" Lin Bai laughed heartily upon hearing that.
