Answer 1

Bearings can sometimes click like you're describing. Based on the fact that you did maintenance on your bottom bracket (crank) bearings. I would guess that there is something wrong (maybe too tight?) with the BB (bottom bracket). These noises can transfer.

Overtightened bearings in the front hub can also cause clicking. Loose bearings can also clicking. You can check this by turning the bike over and spinning the wheel, if it doesn't spin freely it's too tight. If it spins free check, try wiggling it from side to side. If there is play (side to side) it's loose.

Sometimes the spokes can click (if you have a loose spoke).

You should take your bike into the bike shop.
