Chapter 7

Listening to Liu Dong Lingguan's sincere apology, it was clearly somewhat unexpected for Xie Pili. He was taken aback for a moment, then quickly reacted, smiling and asked, "I accept your apology. So, little friend from Asia, why are you here?"

"I am here for your future and destiny!" Liu Dong Lingguan's lips curled into a smile that resembled a mystic's.

Knowing the plot, he began the second step of his plan to smoothly join Xie Pili and Jiao Jiao's team, throwing out a verbal bomb that left Xie Pili and Jiao Jiao stunned and surprised.

Ailina asked in surprise, "What? What do you mean?"

Liu Dong Lingguan did not answer her, continuing to smile mysteriously as he looked at the middle-aged man, "I think Baron Xie Pili should know what this means, right?"

"Future... destiny..."

Xie Pili muttered to himself, his eyes dazed, as if he had returned to the past—before he formally practiced the Ripple Energy in Tibet...

In the solemn palace, the high monks were silent.

Baron Xie Pili always remembered the words of Master Tang Beidi when they first met and shook hands: "A person from afar, I see your future..."

"Do you plan to practice here? If so, your experience here will greatly change your destiny, and you will face fierce enemies and a fate of death!"

At the time, Baron Xie Pili did not understand what this meant, but he chose to stay.

The arduous training lasted for three years. Just as new training was about to begin, Master Tang Beidi brought up the old matter again, explaining to his foreign disciple, "For three years, you have indeed endured this arduous training. Now you can walk for dozens of miles without losing your breath, and you will soon enter the higher level of 'Zhou Tian' training."

"However, before that, I will say it again, Xie Pili. If you continue to train, you will no longer be able to escape your fate of death! If you want to stop, you can still find a new path now."

After three years of training and cultivation, the Baron understood what this meant, but the young Xie Pili did not back down. He was willing to take on the responsibility given by fate and said loudly, "Master Tang Beidi, please tell me in detail, the frequency of my life! My fate of death! When? Where?"

"What will you do if you know?"

"I have something I pursue, and I cannot ignore it!"

The young Xie Pili's face was calm and determined, "To achieve my goal, I want to know. I will accept everything, fulfill everything!"

"Since you have such awareness, I will tell you..."

Master Tang Beidi's prophecy still echoed in his ears. Xie Pili looked at Liu Dong Lingguan, his eyes gradually clearing, and he sighed deeply, "I am truly surprised. I didn't tell anyone about my fate. How did you know?"

Liu Dong Lingguan smiled slightly, "It is one of the Eastern arts."

"Amazing East! Incredible East!" Xie Pili sincerely exclaimed. His Ripple Energy and destiny were both obtained in the East, in Tibet, so he had no doubt about Liu Dong Lingguan's words.

"Can we talk about the topic of destiny later? I need to say a few words to Jiao Jiao now," Xie Pili said.

"Of course, if you don't mind, I would like to watch with Miss Ailina."

Ailina, who could not understand what Liu Dong Lingguan and Xie Pili were talking about, pointed to her nose in confusion, "Eh? Me? What does this have to do with me?"

"No problem," Xie Pili agreed immediately, then turned to face Jiao Jiao, "Mr. Jonathan Joestar, it is a pleasure to meet you. I am Baron Will A. Xie Pili."

"Hello, Baron Xie Pili. Can you tell me how you healed the injury on my arm... I mean, this injury should take at least one or two months to fully recover, but after you touched it a few times, the pain is gone, and I can even lift a stone..." Feeling the miracle happening to his body, Jiao Jiao was so excited that he was almost incoherent.

"What did you do? Who are you, Mr. Xie Pili?"

"Can we ask one question at a time, Jiao Jiao..." Xie Pili was leisurely, fully displaying the art of being cool and mysterious.

Liu Dong Lingguan did not speak, letting him play the mystic. The less the plot changed, the greater his advantage. There was no need to disrupt the plot at this moment.

"Why help me? How do you know my name?" Jiao Jiao quickly rushed forward, loudly asking. He had too many questions that needed answers from this man.

However, the mystic Xie Pili clearly had not had enough fun. He suddenly appeared behind Jiao Jiao, startling Jiao Jiao and Ailina, and even Liu Dong Lingguan, who was prepared, was somewhat surprised. His movement speed was really not slow!

"I will show you the answers, follow me."

At this point, Xie Pili seemed to have had enough fun. His face showed a rare serious expression, "When you see it, if you know who I am, your destiny will change!"

"?!?"

"Again, destiny!?" For some reason, Jiao Jiao remembered the vague conversation between Liu Dong Lingguan and Xie Pili, "What exactly is this destiny?"

After saying that, Xie Pili immediately walked to the river. Liu Dong Lingguan looked at Jiao Jiao and Ailina and quickly followed. He knew that Xie Pili was about to demonstrate the Ripple Energy to Jiao Jiao, and he, who was very curious about the Ripple Energy, could not miss this.

"Jiao Jiao?"

"Let's go, Ailina."

In the worried voice of his companion, Jiao Jiao came to his senses, firmly held her hand, and followed.

The four of them came to the riverbank one after another.

A clear, shallow stream, not very deep, could be easily crossed by an adult. A frog jumped onto a rock in the river, curiously watching the four people approaching.

"I will explain my purpose later," Baron Xie Pili rolled up his pants, preparing to enter the water, "I will first explain what happened in your body and demonstrate the energy produced by breathing."

"?"

"?"

"!"

Jiao Jiao and Ailina were confused, only Liu Dong Lingguan showed great interest.

The Baron stepped into the river, "This is the physical manipulation technique I have practiced for many years. In the mysterious Eastern country, it is called 'Immortal Dao'!"

"Immortal Dao? What is that?"

Jiao Jiao and Ailina, who only knew God, looked puzzled.

"Breath... breath... breath..."

Baron Xie Pili carefully adjusted his breathing. With his skills, he did not need to be so cautious, but this was the first time he was demonstrating his strength to Jiao Jiao, and there was also an Asian man, Liu Dong Lingguan, who could see through his destiny. He had to be extremely careful, and there must be no mistakes.

Otherwise, he would be utterly embarrassed!

While Xie Pili carefully adjusted his breathing, Liu Dong Lingguan was also carefully observing how he breathed. In the Eastern cultivation world, breathing and exhaling were the foundation of the foundation. He was very curious to see how the Ripple Immortal Dao generated such powerful energy. If possible, he thought it would be a good idea to learn the Ripple Immortal Dao.

Xie Pili quickly entered the state. Under the witness of the three people and a frog, ripples that were clearly not natural spread out from the river surface where his legs touched.

"Those... those are ripples?" Jiao Jiao exclaimed in surprise.

"I used my fingers to poke your diaphragm, regulating your breathing, just like what I am doing now. To put it simply, breathing is related to blood, as blood delivers oxygen from the lungs, and oxygen in the blood is related to cells, which are the body! In other words, by using breathing techniques, you can create ripples in the body, just like creating ripples in water—"

"Generating energy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Baron Xie Pili quickly approached the frog. Before it could react, he raised his fist high and struck down!

In a split second, Baron Xie Pili's fist hit the frog's body. Ailina, unable to bear the sight, covered her eyes with both hands, but a strange scene appeared before Jiao Jiao and Liu Dong Lingguan.

"Crack—"

A crack appeared on the rock beneath the frog. In an instant, the rock split into two pieces where the frog was, but the frog was unharmed.

In the next moment, it jumped into the water and disappeared.

"The... the frog is unharmed! Breaking the rock is impressive, but the most incredible thing is that the frog is unharmed after being hit!" Jiao Jiao was extremely surprised.

"This is 'Immortal Dao'!"

At this moment, Baron Xie Pili was very satisfied. After all, he had put in so much thought and effort to achieve the desired result.

"Immortal Dao? This is Immortal Dao?"
