When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.
Chapter 153 Arriving Under the Moon
Chapter 153 Arriving Under the Moon
Time passed, and gradually it arrived at midnight, as Bai Ze had mentioned in his message.
Outside the Gui Cang Tower, a bustling crowd gathered, with countless people watching and gossiping.
Inside the building, only a few people remained because many club members had gone out to search.
Sima Ming sat on the rooftop balcony, slightly raising his head, as if observing the celestial phenomena of the night, or perhaps waiting for something.
"You've been in that position for a full twenty minutes. Aren't you tired?" The young man couldn't help but complain as he looked at the figure standing by the railing.
"Colonel, you don't understand."
Sima Ming, with the air of a master, stood with one hand behind his back and the other waving a feather fan, saying, "At this point, there's still no news of Bai Ze. Either he broke his promise, or he's already approached us undetected. And this method—"
"They flew over."
Previously, when Bai Ze challenged Wei Changqing, he glided directly from the main building of the South Campus.
Now that Bai Ze has not yet appeared, Sima Ming naturally wouldn't have missed this move.
As he spoke, Sima Ming kept calculating with the hand behind his back, and said, "In one minute, a strong wind will come from the west. If Bai Ze wants to use the wind to glide, he will definitely act at that time."
"He deliberately showed off his gliding skills and left the message 'The wind is picking up,' revealing his ability to predict the wind direction and strength. In fact, he had already given me a hint. If I still can't figure out what he means by now, wouldn't I be underestimated by him?"
"Huh?" The young man's mouth gaped slightly upon hearing this. "Is that so?"
It seems like this is really the case.
He was the one who went to Danxia Tower with Sima Ming before, but he didn't say a word the whole time.
The young man had personally witnessed and heard Bai Ze's actions and words, and upon reflection, it seemed to make perfect sense.
"Of course that's how it is," Sima Ming said with a calm smile.
"Just take it as it is."
A woman in a purple dress walked onto the balcony and said, "The president always likes to create a sense of ceremony."
Almost a minute had passed while we were talking.
Under the cover of night, a gentle breeze swept across the vast sky.
Thanks to the good weather and moonlight tonight, the three of them could clearly see the sky for hundreds of miles.
However, Bai Ze was nowhere to be found in this area.
“It seems you guessed wrong,” the woman in the purple dress chuckled. “That super freshman doesn’t appear to have arrived on time.”
Sima Ming also frowned slightly.
Then, his brow relaxed again. "It's not that I guessed wrong, it's that you didn't see it."
Sima Mingpian directed the dance, and a gust of wind was released, instantly forming a strong gust of wind that rushed against the force of the wind.
Suddenly, a blurry shadow appeared in the sky, moving like a mosaic.
Then, the blur disappeared, and a figure suddenly appeared.
"It's him!"
The young man let out a soft cry.
Suddenly, a figure with wings appeared in the sky.
The powerful internal energy transformed into large, transparent wings, which flew towards the Guicang Tower with the help of the wind. If Sima Ming hadn't intervened and exposed it, Bai Ze would probably have already reached the top of the Guicang Tower by now.
"Optical invisibility?" The woman in the purple dress raised her voice in surprise. "Without using any technological assistance, she actually achieved optical invisibility using only her internal energy!"
An invisible aura lingered around Bai Ze's body. When moonlight shone on it, it was as if the moonlight was reflected in water, subtly refracting shimmering light and shadow.
This lingering aura reveals the truth behind the concealment.
“I also find it hard to believe, but in fact, he really did it.”
Sima Ming's eyes flickered, and he pointed his sword again, "If I hadn't sensed your aura, I might have let you ascend the Guicang Tower directly. But now that you've been discovered, junior brother, you'd better obediently walk through the main gate."
The wind stirred again, but this time it was different from before. The gentle breeze suddenly surged with explosive force, and then Sima Ming flicked his finger. "Awakening of Insects."
Boom!
A sound like spring thunder exploded in the air, and the explosive force dispersed the wind, causing Bai Ze, who was gliding on the wind, to fall downwards.
The crowd below looked up at the sound and saw the figure in the air, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
However, in the next instant, the exclamations were drowned out by an even greater shock.
As the wind shifted, Bai Ze suddenly folded its wings, turned around, and stood firmly on its feet, so that it was standing directly in mid-air.
A gentle night breeze stirred, ruffling Bai Ze's hair, while moonlight streamed down, forming a bridge of light that supported his figure.
At this moment, Bai Ze was like a god, causing the crowd below to exclaim "Holy crap!"
"Since you've already stated you'll come by moonlight to retrieve it, wouldn't coming through the main gate make me break my promise?"
Bai Ze, with his back to the bright moon, stepped into the moonlight and laughed.
On the upper floor of the Gui Cang Tower, the three of them could clearly see that Bai Ze's feet were standing in the air, and they couldn't help but shrink their pupils slightly.
"Flying through the air using qi?" the young man murmured, guessing.
"No, it's more like being down-to-earth," the woman in the purple dress replied.
Yes, it's exactly the same as being down-to-earth.
An invisible force field was generated beneath Bai Ze's feet, making him appear as if he were standing on an invisible platform, suspended in mid-air.
"The force field of the sheathless sword-drawing technique?"
Sima Ming's eyes gleamed with an unusual light. He focused his gaze on Bai Ze's feet and made a guess.
He didn't know that the technique Bai Ze used was actually "Buddha Kingdom in the Palm," but he was able to sense some clues about it.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ze showed a hint of surprise and said, "Senior has a good eye."
"You flatter me. Observing the qi is our Astronomical Society's specialty," Sima Ming said, slowly waving his feather fan.
This can be considered as clearing up Bai Ze's doubts.
Whether it's detecting optical invisibility or discerning an invisible force field, it's all due to observing qi.
Although Bai Ze hid it very well, his aura still revealed some clues.
In the theory of the I Ching, all things in the world possess Qi (vital energy). Although observing Qi is a foundation, it leads directly to the essence of the I Ching.
"But you, junior, truly astonish me. First, you achieved optical invisibility, and then you stood in mid-air..."
Sima Ming looked at Bai Ze, his eyes still showing lingering shock. "What astonishing computational power! To be able to refract light with qi and achieve perfect invisibility. However, now that I've seen through your methods, do you still have any tricks up your sleeve?"
As he spoke, Sima Ming stepped back slightly, shielding the man and woman in front of him.
"I also have two great protectors on my left and right sides."
Most of the members of the astronomy club were dismissed, but the core members remained.
Bai Ze's gaze fell on the two of them. "The two vice presidents of the Astronomy Club?"
The Astronomy Club is different from other clubs because it has two vice presidents.
I heard that the two fought more than ten times for the position of vice president, and each time it was difficult to determine a winner, so they simply decided to appoint two vice presidents.
"It's us."
Wang Zuo, the vice president of the youth association, nodded.
"Although the president is sometimes a bit unserious, he is still the president. If you want to go head-to-head with him, you have to get past us first."
"It was Jian Yunsheng, the woman in the purple dress," she said.
