Chapter 556 Temporary Truce
The next day was already here. It was a nice day with a blue sky and white clouds all over.
Inside Hua San forest where the cries of beasts were everywhere, Bai Chen was sitting beside an extinguished bonfire. Around it, there were a lot of beast bones.
Looking at it, it was obvious that only the bones weighed over 10 kilograms.
Bai Chen was sitting on a log with his happy face. Last night, after he’d killed Men Chi, he had hunted beasts for food.
While he was at it, a mission complete window popped up. He received 500 magical bonuses, which made it 4,700 in total. He only needed 300 more for the supreme randomisation chance!
He’d hunted for hours and ended up with a great many that were tasty-looking. He finally settled and lit a bonfire. He ate alone until morning.
This was why there were a great many bones here.
“The meat of a white deer, iron-fanged boar, raging bull, crimson bear, and diamond-eyed fish taste so good. I’m sure they’d taste better with seasonings.” Bai Chen smiled happily. He laid down and looked up at the clear sky.
He thought about going into practice lockdown again. He wanted to reach the tertiary legendary level before dealing with Sien Xiao.
Bai Chen thought that it would take him a year or two to do that. He would also complete his sub-missions while he was at that. Once he got 5,000 magical bonuses, he would finally be able to do a trade for a supreme item.
“Huh?” While he was thinking, he could sense the aura of a divine realm cultivator. He was leaping towards him very quickly.
“A secondary…no, tertiary cultivator!” With his strong sense, it was easy for Bai Chen to tell the stage of the man.
“He’s definitely from the God’s Gate denomination.” It was an easy thing for Bai Chen to determine.
Since he had gotten here, he had never picked a fight with anyone other than those from the God’s Gate denomination. That was why he knew that this time was also the same.
“He’s fast. However, I don’t have time to play with you now!”
It was obvious that Bai Chen did not want to deal with anyone from the denomination right now. He wanted to call for a temporary truce.
It was not because he was scared, but because he wanted to do something more important like the practice lockdown and the sub-mission first. The others could come later.
Actually, Bai Chen could just kill this tertiary divine cultivator for the last time.
However, if he did, the denomination would not stand still. It would continue to send out its cultivators after him. That was why he thought that he would call for a truce… temporarily.
After his practice lockdown, if the denomination was still after him, he would definitely kill them all!
Bai Chen did not waste his time. He used his supreme technique to conceal himself and lunged away in another direction.
Shortly after Bai Chen left, Men Ye Guang arrived at that place. He frowned.
“Where is he? I could sense him just now.”
Men Ye Guang swept his sight around and spread his psychic power wide. He wanted to pinpoint Bai Chen.
However, Men Ye Guang could not detect Bai Chen at all. He only detected some beasts.
“Maybe he ran away. He must have used some concealing technique!” Men Ye Guang muttered coldly. His voice was also full of greed.
He wanted the special possessions that he thought Bai Chen had. He believed that it would all worth it.
“Let’s see how long you can hide from me!” Men Ye Guang dashed out. He would search until he found Bai Chen. He was quite sure that Bai Chen would not be able to run away from him.
In a faraway place, close to the deepest part of Hua San forest, Bai Chen was still leaping forward with an incredible speed. The beasts there could not catch up with him.
The reason why Bai Chen had chosen this place was not only because he wanted to avoid the fight with Men Ye Guang, but because he also wanted somewhere quiet and with thick celestial qi for his practice lockdown.
Shortly after that, Bai Chen found a medium-sized cave, which was owned by a tertiary legendary beast.
When he arrived, he did not waste his time. He spent less than half an hour killing the beast and taking its core.
He smiled with satisfaction. Then, he started with his meditation right away.

At the place owned by the Ten Thousand Sabers clan, Bai Zi Sien had arrived.
Once she got there, she asked to see her teacher right away. Her teacher was the fifth elder of the clan, Shai Chao Hui. Her level was not an ordinary one. She was a primary divine cultivator who was almost at the secondary stage.
“Zi Sien, is this really true?” Shai Chao Hui was sitting in a room. She was a thin middle-aged woman with some white hair. Yet, she still looked younger than her age.
Bai Zi Sien had been bowing in front of her teacher. She quickly nodded. “It is all true. I ask the heavens to punish me to death if I’ve lied!”
Her voice was firm and full of honesty.
“I didn’t expect that the God’s Gate denomination would be so malicious!” Shai Chao Hui’s face turned cold. “Zi Sien, don’t you fret. I’ll discuss this with the lord. I won’t let you be bullied for nothing.”
“Thank you very much, teacher,” Bai Zi Sien quickly thanked her.
Shai Chao Hui nodded and asked with her tense face. “Does that man who helped you really know Lord Sui personally?”
Bai Zi Sien nodded. “I’m not as certain about this, but I think it’s true, judging from his strength and abilities.”
“Is that so? You may go rest now. We’ll take about this later.”
“Yes, teacher,” Bai Zi Sien said and left. Then, Shai Chao Hui started to think about something.
