After this incident, the four guardians of the Ghost Domain, along with Elder Yuantong, were even more convinced that the young master back then was the Supreme Beast.
Xia Wanning was initially puzzled.
After she presented a great deal of evidence, she finally managed to convince the people on the other side.
The real Supreme Beast would have fire - colored pupils when using powerful spiritual power.
After Xia Wanning showed Yuantong and the Divine Throne the initial form of Zhao Huai when he was chained by the elders, they finally believed that the Zhao Huai Xia Wanning mentioned was the real Supreme Beast.
"So, it means that the grand elder of our Ghost Domain, along with the three guardians, were all tricked by a young lad?"
Facts proved that it was indeed the case.
After Xia Wanning and Mo Bai discussed some basic matters, they closed the spiritual transmission image.
Mo Bai always felt that he seemed to have heard the name Zhao Huai somewhere.
But Mo Bai was sure that he had never seen the person in the picture just now.
"Mo Bai, what's wrong? Is there something amiss?"
"Nothing. Maybe I'm just overthinking."
"What about this matter?"
Mo Bai said in a low voice, "Of course I agree. It's just a life. Even if there were a few more, I'd still take them."
"You have to think this through clearly. Zhao Huai is different from those ancient fierce beasts you've subdued before. He's many levels higher than them."
Mo Bai pondered for a while and then replied, "So what?"
In this world, he was not afraid of even the most ferocious wild beasts.
Zhao Huai's bloodline was not awakened yet, so at most, he was just an ordinary person with high spiritual power.
Mo Bai was confident in dealing with such a person.
But for some reason, after he agreed to Xia Wanning's request, he always felt uneasy.
He always felt that there was something wrong with his decision.
"Mo Bai, after you get out, if you meet that girl, bring her back."
Mo Bai looked up in delight.
The man in the purple - gold black robe continued, "Since my son came back, he's been preoccupied all day. I lost you for so many years. Seeing you like this, I asked Qingfeng about some things regarding you."
Mo Bai was rarely so quiet. A hint of warmth appeared on his face, which was a rare sight.
"Mo Bai, I won't interfere in your future. I just hope that no matter when, you never forget the responsibility on your shoulders. The world and the Divine Sect are inseparable. Our Divine Sect has been passed down to this day, and it's rare to have a good seedling like you. No matter when, you must protect your clan well."
Mo Bai looked up and said slowly, "Father, don't worry. In this world, no one can stop the footsteps of our Divine Sect."
If the Divine Sect failed to accomplish something, then he would take this step.
The Ghost Domain was such a gloomy place. Ningning would definitely not like it here. Mo Bai hoped that in the future, he could live with Ningning in a place where the sunlight could reach. So, no matter what, he had to take this step of getting out of the Ghost Domain and pacifying the Jianghu.
For the belief of the Divine Sect over the past few hundred years, and also for Ningning.
Mo Bai wanted to go to Zhao Shuning's side instead of dragging Zhao Shuning into this endless darkness.
He chose to walk towards her.
Mo Bai was already at the door of the main hall. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, so he stopped and turned back to ask, "Father, the Supreme Beast was born naturally without a father or mother, right?"
Although the man in the purple - gold black robe was puzzled.
He still seriously answered Mo Bai's question.
"The Supreme Beast was born with heaven and earth. He has no father, no mother, and no family. In this world, no one has the same bloodline as him. Mo Bai, why do you ask these?"
"Nothing."
It was good that Zhao Huai had no relatives.
Previously, Mo Bai thought that since Zhao Huai and Ningning both had the surname Zhao, there might be some relationship between them.
Now it seemed that he was overthinking.
In the evening, Mo Bai returned to his room.
After a while, a maid came to deliver something. It should be the monster beasts he had tortured and killed a few days ago. Now their core pills should have been refined.
Mo Bai opened the door. Sure enough, two crystal - clear core pills were shining with silver light.
Beside the maid, there was also Bai Zhi, who had suffered a lot from Mo Bai today.
"Young master, I'd like to tell you that one of these two core pills has been refined normally, and the other one, since it's a phantom beast—"
"Bang!"
Before Bai Zhi could finish her words, the door slammed shut in front of her.
Mo Bai didn't like to talk to Bai Zhi. In fact, he didn't like to talk to anyone. So, in his opinion, Bai Zhi's reminder was redundant.
Moreover, Mo Bai was very confident in his current ability. Even a core pill that wasn't fully refined, he could easily transform.
These two fierce beasts had cost Mo Bai a great deal of effort.
He took the core pills into the room, then casually threw them into his mouth, and then sat cross - legged on the bed.
One of the core pills was quickly absorbed by Mo Bai.
He felt that the spiritual power in his body had become more abundant.
But when it came to the second core pill, Mo Bai's brows began to wrinkle slowly.
There was some mist hovering around this core pill.
Mo Bai's spiritual power couldn't detect its specific energy all at once.
When Mo Bai used his spiritual power to detect it, for a moment, his eyes were blinded by the white light. When he opened his eyes again.
He found that everything in front of him had changed.
In front of Mo Bai was an exquisitely - decorated ancient - style room. The room was extremely elegant and spacious. There was also a screen in front of him.
On the screen, there was an embroidered magnolia flower and two mandarin ducks playing in the water.
Behind the screen, there was a faint figure swaying. Mo Bai could only see the silhouette of a woman projected on the screen.
That silhouette looked so charming.
Just as Mo Bai reached out his hand to see who was behind the screen, he heard a soft call.
"Mo Bai, you're here?"
This voice was very nice and very familiar.
Before Mo Bai could react, a pair of fair hands inside landed on his right hand.
"What are you standing there for? Let's go downstairs. The guests should be coming."
The woman was very good - looking. Mo Bai wasn't stunned because of her beauty but because the way the woman talked to him completely overlapped with that of the little Zhao Shuning back then.
He couldn't help but murmur tentatively, "Ningning?"
"Yeah, Mo Bai, what's wrong with you today?"
Was it really her?
Mo Bai wanted to ask something else, but he was gently pulled out by the woman.
"Mo Bai, the child is asleep. Let's not wake him up."
