C94 In the Bai Family
Now, the middle-aged man had told him that the Devil Sword System had chosen him not for no reason, but for a reason.
As for the reason, the middle-aged man did not tell Han Feng. He only said that the time was right, and Han Feng would naturally know. Although Han Feng was puzzled, he knew that since the middle-aged man had said so, there was no need for him to pursue the matter.
"Alright, I've told you everything that needs to be said. I'm looking forward to your growth." The middle-aged man smiled faintly. Before Han Feng could say anything, he vanished into thin air.
The Devil Sword in his body returned to its calm state, as if it had become silent and no longer trembled. With a thought, Han Feng obtained the information about the Devilish Heaven Sword Sect from the Devil Sword.
"The Devilish Heaven Sword Sect is a peerless superpower in the Warring Domain. It has ruled over many empires for 100,000 years. It was ambushed by other sects in the Warring Domain three hundred years ago, causing its destruction. Not a single sect was spared."
Just this sentence alone was enough to shock Han Feng.
A peerless superpower that had ruled over many dynasties for 100,000 years. Such a superpower was indeed incomparable to Great Zhou Dynasty.
At this moment, Han Feng finally knew what kind of treasure he had obtained.
"Since I have obtained the Devil Sword, if I have the chance in the future... I will do everything I can to rebuild the Devilish Heaven Sword Sect!" Han Feng made up his mind. In the future, he would definitely walk out of the State of Zhao. When he walked out of the Great Zhou Dynasty, his voice echoed throughout the Warring Domain. It would once again shake the reputation of the Devilish Heaven Sword Sect!
Two hours later, Han Feng's Dantian was filled with spiritual energy. He changed into a black robe and returned to his original handsome face. He held an ordinary long sword in his hand and rushed towards the South Cloud City once again.
After Devil Lord Xuechuan returned to the South Cloud City, he would contact the Bai family immediately. With the Bai family's power, if they searched the entire city for him, it would bring a terrible disaster.
Therefore, it was better to return to his original appearance. This way, Devil Lord Xuechuan would not be able to recognize him.
...
In the eastern part of South Cloud City, a courtyard house covered a radius of dozens of miles. Among them, the lowest cultivation base was at the Mid Spiritual Martial Stage, and it was common to see high-ranked experts.
The pavilions and tall buildings were singing and dancing. The scenery here was somewhat out of tune with the desolate landscape of South Cloud City.
This was the Bai family.
As one of the top powers in South Cloud City, there was no doubt about the wealth and manpower of the Bai family. The Ancestor of the Bai family had broken through to the Genuine Martial Stage Level One ten years ago, and in the recent days, it showed signs of breaking through to the Genuine Martial Stage Level Two.
In order to harm the South Cloud City, apart from the fact that the city guards were not killed, there were also warriors from the Bai family and the Golden Blade Sect who were not killed. This action undoubtedly made many people think that this bloodthirsty devil was afraid of the Bai family and the Golden Blade Sect.
Naturally, the status of the Bai family was even more prominent.
It could be said that the patriarch of the Bai family had more authority in the South Cloud City than the mayor of the South Cloud City. He could do whatever he wanted in the South Cloud City.
However, today, a piece of news shocked the entire Bai family.
Third Young Master of the Bai family, a Spiritual Martial Stage Level Nine with the Ordinary Weapon and silver spear in his hand, was killed by someone. All the guards who came with him were killed, and not even their bones were left.
The people of the Bai family were filled with disbelief. How could such a thing happen to the Bai family?
However, they couldn't help but believe this news, because the one who brought this news was the Bloodthirsty Devil Cultivator that had startled the South Cloud City, Devil Lord Xuechuan.
He had personally come to the Bai family and told everyone this news, causing their hearts to pound crazily.
Someone was challenging the Bai family?
"Are you telling the truth? Xiang'er was killed by a Spiritual Martial Stage Level Eight youth?" In the Bai family's main hall, the patriarch, Bai Liehfeng, repeatedly confirmed with Devil Lord Xuechuan.
"Everything I said is true." Devil Lord Xuechuan sighed, "So that young man is only at the Spiritual Martial Stage Level Seven, and he broke through during the battle. He reached it! Spiritual Martial Stage Level Eight, he controls the powerful Sword Dao Will and Devil Dao Will. The endless sword Qi had killed Bai Xiang, leaving no remains behind. My cultivation base hasn't recovered enough yet. I can't fight him."
Devil Lord Xuechuan felt extremely humiliated when he thought of this young man. He was the dignified Demon Lord. He had even been hunted down by others. Although he was unwilling to admit that he had lost to Han Feng, there was nothing he could do about it. With his current strength, there was no way for him to take revenge. He could only rely on the strength of Bai family.
The patriarch of the Bai family and a few elders were all at the Half-step Genuine Martial Stage, and the Ancestor of the Bai family was at the peak of the Genuine Martial Stage Level One. They could break through to the Genuine Martial Stage Level Two at any time. If they joined forces, killing Han Feng would be as easy as flipping their palm.
"Xiang-er." Bai Liehfeng slammed his palm on the stone table. Vaguely, there was a Vital Energy Power pressing down on the stone table. The stone table instantly turned into powder, as if there was a strong wind blowing on the ground, trying to dig a hole in the ground.
The fury in his eyes was about to spurt out. Bai Xiang was its third son, and his talent was very high. Although he had passed the age of entering the Hongtian Academy, the other major powers in the inner city of Tianfeng City... There was still a high chance of entering. In the future, even if Bai Xiang couldn't break through to the Earth Energy Stage, as long as he had the Genuine Martial Stage Level Three cultivation base... He would certainly be able to bring the Bai family to a new height.
Furthermore, Bai Xiang's plan was the most brilliant amongst his three sons. Otherwise, Bai Liehfeng wouldn't have sent him to work with Devil Lord Xuechuan to lure and kill all the warriors.
He had high hopes for Bai Xiang. He even planned to pass the position of patriarch to Bai Xiang when he stepped into the Half-step Genuine Martial Stage. But now, everything had become empty talk.
And the one who caused all of this was actually a young man at the Spiritual Martial Stage?
"Hmph." Before Bai Liehfeng's anger could dissipate, a cold snort was heard all of a sudden. A mighty pressure instantly descended upon him, and even Devil Lord Xuechuan felt some pressure from it.
The person who appeared was the strongest combat strength of Bai family, the Ancestor of the Bai family.
According to the rumors in the outside world, both the Ancestor of the Bai family and the Golden Blade Sect's Old Master were in secluded cultivation at the same time. They wanted to see who would break through to the Genuine Martial Stage Level Two first and compete with each other. Who would have thought that the old ancestor of the Hundred Family didn't go into secluded cultivation? He was secretly controlling everything.
"Old ancestor." Everyone stood up and bowed. Even Bai Liehfeng slightly withdrew his anger and cupped his hands towards the old ancestor.
"You bunch of trash!" Although Ancestor of the Bai family was over a hundred years old, his temper was still extremely hot. When he found out that his grandson was killed by someone, he couldn't help but curse. Bai Xiang, this grandson, was also extremely doted on by him. He doted on him very much during normal days. It was no wonder that Bai Xiang was so lawless. He thought that he would be able to control everything.
"Old Ancestor, please forgive me." Bai Liehfeng felt helpless. Even Devil Lord Xuechuan was defeated. He had no idea what kind of person Bai Xiang had offended.
Naturally, Devil Lord Xuechuan wouldn't tell the people of Bai family about the Heaven Defying Devil Arts and Devilish Heaven Sword Sect. There was no need for the Bai family to know about such a major power, and they weren't qualified to know about it.
In Bai Liehfeng's opinion, Han Feng was just a young man. If he didn't have a strong background, he wouldn't be able to defeat Devil Lord Xuechuan with his Spiritual Martial Stage cultivation base. Which genius who challenged a higher grade didn't use their family's resources to nurture them?
"Demon Lord." The Ancestor of the Bai family looked at Devil Lord Xuechuan with a dignified gaze. A fierce light flashed across his eyes. His grandson had an accident, but Devil Lord Xuechuan was standing there unharmed. How should he settle this score?
Although his grandson had asked for it, the reason why he had an accident was to help Devil Lord Xuechuan recover his cultivation base.
"Ancestor." Devil Lord Xuechuan was an old monster who had lived for a thousand years. How could he not know the meaning of the Ancestor of the Bai family? He was afraid that the Ancestor of the Bai family had already suspected him.
"If I'm not wrong, Xi-er was killed because he helped you collect your blood, right?" The Ancestor of the Bai family questioned.
"That is indeed the case." Devil Lord Xuechuan did not deny it, but he changed the topic. He said, "But he has offended someone he shouldn't have. He was killed by his opponent. I have no other choice. I'm willing to join the Bai family in capturing that brat. "
Devil Lord Xuechuan's personality was one that disdained explaining to others, but there was no other way. He was now in dire straits, and he was still a step away from Genuine Martial Stage. Thus, he had no choice but to lower himself to the Ancestor of the Bai family.
Although his combat strength was comparable to a Half-step Genuine Martial Stage, and the distance between him and a Genuine Martial Stage was very short, he knew very well the gap between them. Although it seemed like a tiny distance, it was actually a thousand miles.
The Ancestor of the Bai family could easily kill him, and the only reason why he wasn't completely enraged was because of the benefits he had promised.
The Ancestor of the Bai family was also a smart person. When it heard Devil Lord Xuechuan's words, it roughly understood what was going on. Its grandson was already dead. Even if it blamed Devil Lord Xuechuan, it would be useless. It was better to maintain cooperation. He still needed Devil Lord Xuechuan to find the murderer who killed his grandson.
"Devil Lord Xuechuan is sincere. Of course, the Bai family will not blame you." Ancestor of the Bai family sat on the main seat, "I only hope that you can master your divine skill one day and help the Bai family unify the South Cloud City."
In the heart of the Ancestor of the Bai family, there was a mental illness that it could not get rid of. That was the Golden Blade Sect. The Golden Blade Sect and the Bai family seemed to be in harmony, but in fact, they had been secretly fighting for decades. The grudges between the patriarchs of several generations and the Golden Blade Sect were not shallow. When Devil Lord Xuechuan came to find him... He proposed to borrow the strength of the Bai family to recover, and then help the Bai family take control of the entire South Cloud City. The Ancestor of the Bai family agreed without hesitation.
This might be an opportunity or a crisis, but the Ancestor of the Bai family was willing to take this gamble.
Originally, everything was changing in a positive direction. Devil Lord Xuechuan's strength was increasing step by step. The cooperation between him and the Bai family was getting closer and closer. The Ancestor of the Bai family had also found the Old Master of the Golden Blade Sect, and suggested that they go into secluded cultivation for a year. One year later, the winner and loser would be decided. The Golden Blade Sect no longer had a Genuine Martial Stage warrior guarding it, and Devil Lord Xuechuan hadn't harmed anyone from the Golden Blade Sect either. Therefore, they had no plans to deal with the Bloodthirsty Devil Cultivator. This was exactly what the Bai family wanted.
Even though the Bloodthirsty Devil Cultivator couldn't help but want to suck in the people of the Golden Blade Sect, it gave up after considering the collaboration with the Bai family.
However, the appearance of this man had caused the Ancestor of the Bai family to be filled with endless fury.
What was the background of that black-robed youth?!
