"Nothing... nothing,"
Feng Ke quickly shut her mouth, refraining from making any further sounds.
Bai Zihe glanced at her. His fifth senior sister's contact person this time was a bit... very lively.
Immediately.
He looked at Feng Ke and asked, "Do you know where this key to the capital is?"
"I know."
Feng Ke replied without hesitation, "This key is at an auction house near the hotel. Bidding starts tomorrow morning."
Tomorrow morning...
That was rather quick, which saved a lot of time.
Bai Zihe understood.
Seeing that he was silent, Feng Ke proactively asked, "Young Master, shall we gather some money later to prepare for tomorrow's auction?"
"Gather money?"
Bai Zihe chuckled, his smile chillingly cold.
"These elemental keys originally belonged to my mother."
"It's one thing that they took them without me pursuing the matter, but they even dare to put them up for auction and expect me to buy them back..."
"This is simply outrageous."
"We'll just go and take them back directly tomorrow."
He spoke these words not in a heavy tone, but with an air of irrefutable authority.
Feng Ke was stirred by his words.
The Young Master...
He was truly peerlessly domineering.
"Alright, Young Master!"
Feng Ke nodded and casually asked, "What shall we have for dinner later?"
"Just bring a few signature dishes,"
Bai Zihe replied casually, then added, "You can go out now. I need to start cultivating."
Cultivating!
Feng Ke's delicate eyebrows slightly raised as she walked out.
Bai Zihe sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.
Cultivation was an endless pursuit.
It was this day and night, rain or shine, relentless cultivation that had granted Bai Zihe his current strength.
As for what specific realm he had reached...
Bai Zihe himself was not entirely sure.
From the levels he had encountered so far,
He was certain that Grandmaster was already a ceiling-like existence.
Like the Southern Region Lord, Gai Tianya.
Because he was a Grandmaster, he was arrogant and imperious.
The envoy from Yingren Country, Matsushima Zekawa, had also gained immense confidence after reaching the Grandmaster realm and dared to fight Bai Zihe.
All because Grandmasters were almost invincible in the world.
Of course,
There were divisions within the Grandmaster realm, such as ordinary Grandmasters and high-level Grandmasters.
But whether ordinary or high-level Grandmasters, they already stood at the pinnacle of all beings. If they entered the court, they would rule a territory; if they stepped into the martial world, they would be revered as ancestors.
They were all magnates.
As for above Grandmaster...
That was undoubtedly a completely new world, a stage from which one could look down upon the world.
As for what that stage was called, what terrifying power it possessed, and what heavenly divine arts it wielded, all remained unknown.
Because beings at that level had long since transcended everything, indifferent to external joys and sorrows.
Even if such existences were present, one would not encounter them.
And Bai Zihe...
Had vaguely touched upon that threshold.
He could not describe what kind of world lay beyond that threshold, only that he sensed some subtle methods of breathing, exhaling, and comprehending the world.
"Buzz—"
After Bai Zihe began cultivating,
A powerful vortex of energy spread outwards from him as the center.
Although he intentionally controlled it and it did not spread too far, its majestic divine power was unstoppable and awe-inspiring.
Feng Ke was in her own private room.
Suddenly, she felt this extraordinary, transcendent power, and her clear, bright eyes were immediately filled with shock.
She looked in Bai Zihe's direction, her face filled with disbelief.
"This, this level of strength..."
"Perhaps my junior brother has already touched that threshold."
"Given time..."
"It's not impossible for him to take an unprecedented step!"
Feng Ke's face was filled with both shock and relief.
She was Bai Zihe's seventh senior sister, Yao Ke'er!
Yao Ke'er had been in the capital all along. This time, upon hearing from Yue Rushuang that Bai Zihe was coming, she colluded with Yue Rushuang to pose as Bai Zihe's subordinate.
However,
Bai Zihe had never seen through her identity.
Yao Ke'er herself wanted to see when Bai Zihe would finally discover this, so she had not revealed herself.
Since her junior brother was practicing,
As an elder sister, Yao Ke'er naturally guarded him from the outside.
Immediately, she also sat down cross-legged.
