Chapter 76: The World Within the Tower
But what made all the big families in Wangdu disappointed was that the Bai family didn't make a single move.
Everyone is talking about it, could it be that the Bai family is afraid of the An family?
But everyone's doubts had yet to be confirmed, and they didn't dare go to the White family to verify them. On the third day, they figured it out.
Everyone understood at this scene, the Bai family's emotions left room for the An family.
Occupying the moral high ground.
At the entrance of Wu Institute, Bai's family was stopped by the head instructor himself, who led a group of people to block the way.
Bai Jianming had Bai Xuanzhang, a Wu Zong-level expert, sitting in town, so he was mentally prepared and not anxious.
"An Mulin, hand over Tang Song. This matter has nothing to do with your An family anymore. Your An family is of royal blood, but you're harboring a murderer and a thug. Does that mean the royal family can be above the law?"
"Hand over the murderer, a life for a life! Hand over the murderer, a life for a life!" Not only were the Bai family members shouting, but even the onlookers among the common people were joining in. The royal family was shielding the murderer, and now the creditor had come to their doorstep - what a huge commotion this was!
They usually don't dare to do so, but today with Bai Jia Ding in the front, they hide behind the crowd and follow suit, also venting their discontent.
An Mulin's face changed greatly, as the royal family had always taken it upon themselves to maintain national stability. The royal family had always used the king's law to restrain warriors and subjects.
And this royal law is also the foundation of An's family taking trust and ruling over the common people, now the White family wants to uproot the foundation of An's family!
The An family has always been supported by the common people over the years, and the royal family has made every effort to prevent the martial artists from harming the people, which is the backing of the An family.
But now Bai Jianming wants to dismantle An's foundation and backing, replacing them with the greatest support.
Anmulin's face turned iron-green. What was going on with this matter? Only they themselves were clear about it. Could such a thing be explained clearly to the common people?
If matters between warriors were handled in the same way as contradictions among ordinary people, would they still be called warriors?
Moreover, Tang Song's injury of Bai Yang was something Bai Yang brought upon himself. As for killing Bai Mu, it was self-defense; if your son wants to kill someone, can't that person defend themselves without being considered a criminal?
"Bai Jianming, you're also a martial artist, yet you can say something like this. If we follow your logic, then all of the Bai family should be dead. How many innocent people have the Bai family harmed over the years? And isn't it all because of the Bai family's powerful influence that they've been able to suppress others?"
Anmou Song said with a hateful tone: "How has your White family been viewed in the imperial capital over the years, I believe the common people are the most aware."
Bai Jianming was stunned. He didn't expect An Maosong to counterattack him like this. Wasn't this too shameless? Can't we just talk about the Tang and Song dynasties?
Bai Xuanzhang closed his eyes. That idiot Bai Jianming, how did he become the head of the White family's branch in the first place?
Originally came to ask for punishment, is it necessary to say so much?
Now it's fine, you've gotten yourself into trouble, now what was reasonable has become unreasonable.
Bai Xuanchang felt that he couldn't let Bai Jianming continue to mess around like this, or else even the plan of the Old Master would be hindered.
"Those who are harboring him, I'll say it once: hand over Tang Song. If you don't hand over Tang Song within ten breaths, I'll go in myself to catch the person."
This is what a warrior should say.
Bai Jianming spent the whole day thinking about how to replace An Mao Song, dreaming of one day becoming the king himself. So when speaking and acting, he first considered how to prepare for his ascension to the throne.
Bai Xuan Zhang scolded him severely, and Bai Jianming's face turned bright red, almost to the point of finding a seam in the ground to drill into.
Wu Zong's imposing aura was overwhelming, and An Maolin couldn't resist it. He said directly: "Since that's the case, then please, everyone, do as you wish. Tang Song is in the high tower, Third Uncle said that if you want Tang Song, you must first pass through the An family's barrier."
After finishing speaking, An Maolin led his men into the Wu Institute and returned to the High Tower.
He blocked the Bai family's people at this moment, Tang Song had already entered the high tower.
Bai Jianming was stunned, just now he still had a look of refusing to yield, but now he directly let him in, this difference is too big.
Bai Xuan Zhang snorted coldly and glanced at the distant high tower before striding directly into the Martial Institute.
Today I came here to touch the bottom of the high tower. If possible, I can fight with Anjia people and personally experience the power of the high tower treasure.
Bai Jianming didn't know any of this and still thought that Bai Xuanchang had really come to capture Tang Song in order to avenge them.
A group of people arrived at the foot of the high tower, looking up at its large gate, which now seemed like a giant beast's bloody maw.
Bai Xuanzhang stood still, hesitating for a moment. Before coming here, Bai Xuan had already informed him about it. The Anjia treasure was somewhat unusual, with a high grade and great power. More importantly, because the treasure merged with the secret realm, it could absorb the energy of the secret realm to enhance its power.
A centuries-old secret realm, as time passes, the stability of the secret realm will become higher and higher, and the energy stored inside will also become more and more concentrated.
The energy inside will be terrifying when it bursts out.
So Bai Xuan Yue would only set up the Equal Secret Realm after it was opened, and then take action. This is because each time the secret realm opens, a large amount of energy will be consumed, which is also the reason why the secret realm can only be opened once every few years.
Some higher-level secret realms have a longer opening period.
The mighty treasure, under the activation of the nine Wuling Great Elders, might be able to kill Bai Xuanzhang in an instant.
So Bai Xuan Yue instructed Bai Xuan Zhang that after arriving, he should adapt to the situation and absolutely must not push An Jia's people to death, his task was just to probe.
Ling's consciousness swept over, but it was like a stone sinking into the ocean, without any reaction. Bai Xuanzhang's face changed, and it seemed that he could only enter the high tower.
"You wait here, I'll go take a look." Bai Xuan Zhang instructed Bai Jian Ming and his men to wait, while he himself walked step by step towards the entrance of the tower.
As soon as he entered the high tower, Bai Xuanzhang only felt that the scene in front of him changed instantly, as if he had come to another world.
"Is this the world of the precious tower or still within the secret realm?" White Mysterious Chapter was full of doubts.
A bright light appeared before his eyes, and a figure emerged in the distance. It was an old man. If Bai Jianming were here, he would definitely recognize him - this old man was one of the three elders of the An family.
"It seems that the Bai family is really going to be at odds with the An family until one of them dies!" The old man sighed, seemingly regretful.
Bai Xuan Zhang calmly said, "This matter depends on your An family's attitude. Hand over Tang Song and we will immediately withdraw. If you let the murderer go unpunished, where would our Bai family put its face?"
Bai Xuan Zhang's words were reasonable and emotional, but the three elders shook their heads and said: "Your purpose is not to find the murderer at all, but our family's treasured artifact."
Bai Xuan Zhang was shocked, this matter was extremely secretive, how could this old man possibly know about it.
"I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't care who you are in the An family, hand over Tang Song and I'll leave immediately. Otherwise, you'll only see the truth with your own eyes."
The three elders said: "Then there's nothing more to say, let's get started!"
Having said that, the three elders waved their hands, and a ray of light flashed across the sky. Bai Xuan felt an enormous pressure enveloping his body, not only was his movement slow, but even his true energy circulation was somewhat stagnant.
Bai Xuan Zhang was shocked, and before the fight had even begun, his strength had been restricted to three layers. Moreover, he felt that this world inside here made it impossible for him to fully utilize his Wu Zong realm's intent.
Because the laws within the Tower World are different from those outside, the law intent he comprehended had no effect here.
This discovery made Bai Xuanzhang feel fearful. Fortunately, he had come to investigate first, if he hadn't known about it beforehand, the elder would have fallen into it in an instant, which would be very dangerous.
He silently took note of this discovery and raised his true energy, waiting for the opponent's attack.
Soon, another old man appeared in front of him. With Wu Ling's great and perfect cultivation, Bai Xuan Zhang knew that this must be one of the An Jia's Tower Guardians.
Before coming, he had already inquired about the situation of Anjia Jiudazhao Changlao from Bai Jianming in detail. They were all old men with great martial arts skills.
The old man was indeed Jiu Changlao. As soon as he appeared, he introduced himself and said: "An Shengming, please advise me, seniors!"
An Sheng Ming? He is one of the nine elders of the An family and the guardian of the lowest level of the treasure tower.
"Bai Xuan Zhang!" Bai Xuan Zhang clasped his fists, saying in a cold tone. He was now even more cautious, meticulously executing Bai Xuan Yue's plan. He tried to drag out the time as much as possible, gathering more information about the treasure tower, making it easier for their future actions.
"An Sheng Ming let out a loud roar, 'Blazing Flame Blade!'"
A treasured sword appeared in his hand, slashing towards Bai Xuan Zhang. The blade emitted a faintly discernible aura of heat, and at the tip of the sword, an inch-long sword qi emerged, occasionally sweeping across the sky, leaving behind trails of white silk.
Bai Xuanzhang's expression was grave, and this feeling of being tied up made him feel stifled. Originally a small Wu Ling Da Yuan's complete Wu warrior, he could have solved it with just one casual strike.
But now not only is the speed of physical movement restricted, but also the circulation of true energy is restricted. What's even more infuriating is that it's impossible to display the realm of law and intent, which is the trademark of a high-ranking martial artist and the most powerful means of attack.
Wu Zong's high skill, every move and gesture can mobilize the power of heaven and earth to attack the enemy.
A warrior, no matter how powerful he is, can't possibly contend against the power of heaven and earth's laws.
But now, almost all of his means have been suppressed.
On the contrary, An Shengming was like a fish in water, and his strength was infinitely amplified in this mysterious ultimate.
The Flame Blade slashed at Bai Xuanzhang one after another, and Bai Xuanzhang had to forcefully raise his true energy, densely covering it on the palm of his hand. With a swift movement, he deflected the force of the Flame Blade.
But every time I parry, it consumes more of my true energy. If this continues, I'll eventually fall to this guy's hands.
A master of Wu Zong was defeated by a great and perfect martial artist of Wu Ling, if outsiders were to know about it, they would probably laugh their teeth off.
Bai Xuanzhang, who had already roughly grasped the situation of the pagoda, was about to retreat.
