Chapter 148 Dual Blades, Icy Brilliance in the Martial World (17)

“Little boy, you speak as sweet as honey. I love hearing these words. I already know, so you can go. I’ll wait here.” Bai Tang said with a smile.

The little boy went inside, and Bai Tang looked around in the vicinity.

Heavenly Secrets Pavilion was built on the highest and most dangerous mountain in Langya. The scenery here was quite good. Looking down, there were cliffs and precipices, extremely thrilling. Raising her head slightly, she could overlook the entire plain, observing the myriad scenes of the world, the worldly affairs, all visible.

Bai Tang didn’t have to wait too long. The little boy returned with a tray, on which there was a brocade bag and a note, priced at a thousand taels.

Bai Tang took out a silver note and placed it on the tray, taking the brocade bag and immediately opening it. After a glance, she shredded the note into pieces.

Watching as Tantai Ziheng’s figure became closer and closer, Bai Tang smiled and asked, “Little boy, do you have after-sales service?”

The little boy was puzzled, “Please clarify, what is after-sales service?”

Bai Tang replied, “If I come to buy information, would you sell the same information to someone else after I’ve bought it?”

The little boy replied seriously, “Young lady, our Heavenly Secrets Pavilion has always been the most protective of customer privacy. Young lady, you don’t need to worry. The fact that you bought this information will not be known to anyone. At most, people will know that you came to Heavenly Secrets Pavilion to buy information, but the specifics are not something others can know.”

Bai Tang nodded in satisfaction. Tantai Ziheng finally arrived. He first glared fiercely at Bai Tang, then walked directly to the little boy, pointing at Bai Tang with an unfriendly expression, “What information did she just buy here?”

The little boy smiled and replied, “I’m sorry, Young Villa Master Tantai, you can’t know.”

Tantai Ziheng took out a handful of silver notes, “Tell me, all these silver notes are yours. I’m buying this information.”

The little boy still refused, “Young Villa Master, you can’t break the rules of Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.”

The last sentence contained a hint of threat.

Tantai Ziheng snorted coldly, “Stubborn.”

Bai Tang smiled faintly, “Tantai Ziheng, as an adult, why argue with a young boy? You’re just too slow, so…”

With a malicious smile, Bai Tang reached out and grabbed the clothes on the back of Tantai Ziheng, lifting him up. Using Lightness Skill, she jumped off the cliff with him.

Tantai Ziheng’s expression loosened. “Let go of me! If it weren’t for the fact that this is Yaoyao’s body, I’d make you regret your words.”

Bai Tang was indifferent, “Shut up. At your turtle-like pace, by the time you descend the mountain, I’ll have already had a nap. You’re slow and still have the audacity to talk tough.”

Tantai Ziheng’s face turned dark with anger—he couldn’t understand where this woman got the courage. She actually jumped straight down from the cliff.

The wind in his ears was painfully cold, and in the corner of his eye, Tantai Ziheng glimpsed at the familiar face, now filled with a chilling ruthlessness.

When landing, Bai Tang adjusted her breath and, stepping on the tops of the branches, she found the location of the carriage while still carrying a person.

After putting down Tantai Ziheng, she went back into the carriage.

Weng Quan exclaimed, “Female Hero Bai, was it this fast going up and down?”

Bai Tang casually waved her hand, “When coming down, I took a shortcut.”

Weng Quan, who had been here a few times, was curious, “There’s a shortcut down from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion?”

Tantai Ziheng complained bitterly, “This lunatic jumped from the cliff on the side of Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.”

Weng Quan, “…”

Sorry for disturbing you.

He even said he would try taking a shortcut next time. Haha, jumping from such a height, that would be the end of his little adventure!

Bai Tang retorted, “It’s just that you can’t do it, so you call me crazy. Alright, go to the west, Narrow Heaven.”

The next destination was Narrow Heaven.

What was in Narrow Heaven?

Weng Quan and Tantai Ziheng couldn’t believe it. The Narrow Heaven, known as the deepest cliff in the Central Plains, plunges into immeasurable depths of tens of thousands of feet. In that location lies a dense forest that thrives in perpetual darkness, shielded from sunlight, yet still maintaining a lush and verdant expanse.

TL/N: 
-From Weng Quan’s perspective; sometimes he called Bai Tang as Young Lady Bai (白姑娘 Bái gūniáng), most of the time it was Female Hero Bai (白女侠 Bái nǚ xiá). 
-From Tantai Ziheng’s perspective to Yaoyao; at times it was Yaoyao (窈窈), most of the time it was Lady Yao (窈娘 Yǎo niáng). There were also Young Master Weng, Young Hero Weng, etc.
-The names they addressed to each other were pretty inconsistent. If it was really the author’s intention, just have to remember not to fret too much about the inconsistency.
