Chapter 77: Confrontation
It's not that Bai Xuanchang can't beat An Shengming, but there's no need to do so. He came here today just to test the waters, not to fight with all his might.
He was certain that even if he defeated An Shengming, there were still eight other An family elders waiting for him.
Even if his true energy was profound, he wouldn't be able to withstand the wheel war of the nine great elders.
Of course, if there is no restriction in this world of Tower, then it's an exception.
So Bai Xuan Zhang just symbolically resisted a few attacks and then exited the Tower's world.
Watching Bai Xuan Zhang come out of the tower gate empty-handed, Bai Jian Ming hurriedly went up and said: "Director Zhang, how is it? Did you catch Tang Song?"
Bai Xuanchang's face sank, this Bai Jianming, is really a moron, don't you have eyes?
"Go back!"
"What?" Bai Jianming was puzzled, "Why haven't we caught Tang Song, the murderer, yet?"
Bai Xuan Zhang stared at him and said: "If you don't want to go back, then stay here."
Bai Xuanchang took people away, Bai Jianming looked at the high tower with a face of unwillingness, stomped his feet, and had to leave too.
In the high tower, Tang Song watched as Bai Xuanzhang retreated and asked in puzzlement: "Third Elder, this Bai Xuanzhang is a top expert of the Wu Zong, how could he leave so easily?"
The three old men's eyes, which were wise and far-sighted, seemed very profound as they said, "One is that the world of the tower suppressed his performance, and another is that he didn't want to go all out. It seems what you said was right, their goal is indeed the treasure tower."
"Do you know? This treasure pagoda was obtained by Anshan's ancestors in a relic, and it has never been used. Only when he was about to pass away did he use it to merge with the secret realm. The tower has its own world, its own laws, which are different from the laws of the outside world. Therefore, Bai Xuanzhang cannot exert his strongest attack as a martial arts master in the world of the pagoda."
Without the law of intent, it's like a tiger with its teeth pulled out. Relying solely on his internal energy won't last long. Moreover, in the world of the tower, whether it's action ability or energy circulation, he will be suppressed. Withdrawing calmly is a wise choice, I think he just came to probe.
Tang Song understood that this pagoda-shaped treasure was extremely powerful, not only did it have its own world inside, but the world's laws within it were also self-contained and different from those of the outside world.
"Is this a pre-heavenly treasure born from nature?" Tang Song asked in surprise.
Congenital treasure devices are also divided into grades, but congenital treasure devices have a very obvious sign, that is, the law and meaning contained in the congenital treasure device, which forms an independent entity.
Unlike the acquired treasure that is refined later, the principles and realms contained within are all bestowed by the alchemist in the later stages.
The three elders nodded and said: "Not bad, this treasure pagoda is indeed a pre-heavenly treasure, but what specific grade it is, we also have no way of knowing."
Tang Song expressed understanding, their vision is really too narrow, they can't see the outside world at all, and they know too little about precious instruments, nor do they have any relevant classics.
That is a treasure that only a major power can have.
There is no need to worry if there is no support from the law and the environment.
As long as those few martial arts masters from the White family are lured into the Tower of Middle World, Tang Song will have a way to deal with them.
These days he has been worried about Bai Jia Wu Zong's high-handed law, now that there is a way to restrict him, what are they afraid of?
The White Family.
Bai Xuanzhang returned and went straight to Bai Xuan Yue's front, reporting today's situation.
Bai Xuan furrowed his brow and said, "Are you sure you've figured everything out?"
"Eight nine is not far from ten!" Bai Xuan Zhang said with certainty.
Bai Xuan said, "I expected that you could suppress my cultivation. But I didn't think that you could also isolate the realm of law and intent. I didn't think that this little An Jia would have a pre-heavenly treasure, this is truly a stroke of good luck."
Bai Xuanzhang smiled and said, "This congenital treasure will be ours from now on. I think that since the elder has made such a great contribution, our family will definitely reward him with a good treasure."
"I don't ask for rewards, but I want things to be done neatly and perfectly, without any problems. Also, the fact that An's family heirloom is a pre-heavenly artifact must not be leaked out. Whoever dares to leak this information will not be considered one of us."
Bai Xuanzhang was startled in his heart and quickly guaranteed: "Yes, elder, it will absolutely not be leaked."
Bai Xuan nodded and said, "Very well, since we have already figured out the situation, it's time for us to take action."
"Take action?" Bai Xuan Zhang was shocked and said: "Elder, didn't you say to wait until the secret realm is fully open before taking action?"
Bai Xuan glanced at him and said, "Who said anything about snatching the treasure? I'm saying we should bring that Tang Song back."
"What's going on with Tang Song?" Bai Xuan Zhang was confused again.
Bai Xuan Yue angrily said: "Are you stupid? That little brat beat up my White family's people, killed my White family's people, and it's just going to be like that? Hmm?"
Bai Xuanzhang reacted and said: "Alright, Elder, I'll go take care of it right away!"
"What's with 'go and handle it immediately'? Go in the evening!"
They had previously stayed in Tangsong because they wanted to find a bright and upright opportunity to enter the Anshan Martial Institute and take a look at the situation of the treasure tower.
The current situation of Bao Ta has been clarified, and Tang Song is no longer useful. Naturally, he must use his head to restore the prestige of the White family.
Bai Jianming slumped back to the White House, he really couldn't believe it, this was the means and style of a fifth-grade aristocratic family? This was too weak!
A prestigious family of fifth rank, can't even protect themselves against a royal family of eighth rank, do they still need to compromise with them?
Three great martial arts masters, and there is also a grandmaster of the later period of the Martial Arts Sect. Just crush them directly and he, this master of the White Family, can take the position of King Anshan.
He didn't know that Bai Xuan decided to use such a gentle approach just to prevent the incident from escalating beyond his control.
After all, the charm of a precious object is still very great.
If the other families of the Panlong Empire find out that the Bai family is after the treasure, they will definitely intervene. Even if they can't get the treasure, they have to sabotage the Bai family's actions.
To know that the Bai family has added a bit of strength, they have to reduce a bit of strength. This consumption will go on and on, and eventually fall behind thoroughly.
So everything has to be fought for, and if you don't fight, it's equivalent to falling behind, and falling behind means getting beaten. This lesson is too profound, they understand this truth better than anyone else.
Bai Xuan Yue, for the first time as an elder, went out alone to complete a task. He naturally wanted to do things beautifully and make a good impression in front of the various elders of the family, adding a good impression in front of his ancestors.
Now that he knows the An family's pagoda is a pre-heavenly treasure, it's even more so. He has already thought in his heart that after bringing the pagoda back to the family, what kind of reward will the family give him.
Depressed Bai Jianming could only vent his anger by scolding and chasing away two servants, when Bai Yang arrived.
As soon as he saw his old father, he flew into a rage. Bai Yang asked, "Dad, what's wrong?"
"What's going on? What's going on? Our White family has become the laughing stock of Anshan City, your father and I have become the joke of the whole city, what else can go wrong?"
"It's not that serious, besides, it's still uncertain who will win or lose in the end. The one who laughs last is the real winner." Bai Yang said with a lack of confidence.
It's really disappointing for the home team to perform like this in the past few days.
"What's not worth it?! You've seen the scene today, haven't you? At first, we were so dominant, I thought this time our White family could hold its head high, but who would have thought we'd still end up slinking back with our tails between our legs?! This is infuriating!"
"Father, speak softly, don't let others hear."
Bai Jianming's momentum, which had just surged up, suddenly dissipated, revealing a cautious and apprehensive appearance. He looked around cautiously before finally putting his mind at ease.
Night falls.
Because of the commotion during the day, Tang Song did not stay in the tower that night and instead returned to his own courtyard.
In the dead of night, a black shadow was moving stealthily within the Wu Institute. Before long, the shadow had locked onto Tang Song's small courtyard.
Soon, the dark shadow arrived at the top of Tang Songyuan, his spiritual sense locked onto Tang Song. A cold smile flashed in his heart. For the past two days, he had been feeling stifled, and now he could finally take some interest and vent his anger.
In the room, Tang Song sat upright on the bed and sensed it when the black shadow landed on the roof. His spiritual sense swept over and immediately discovered a figure.
He felt a chill in his heart and knew that the Bai family would not be at peace. Now someone had indeed come.
Bai Xuan Zhang was in no hurry at all. After confirming that this was the courtyard of Tang Song, Bai Xuan Zhang landed in the courtyard and then swaggered in with a big push of the door.
The moment Bai Xuan Zhang entered the door, Tang Song opened his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in them, like two shooting stars streaking across the night sky.
Bai Xuanzhang was startled in his heart, but he didn't think much of it.
"What's White Mysterious Chapter?" Tang Song asked.
"Tang Song?" Bai Xuan Zhang said calmly.
Tang Song stood up and said, "I am Tang Song. I thought you would have come two days ago, but instead you came today, sneaking around at night. It seems that the so-called fifth-grade aristocratic families are nothing more than this."
Bai Xuan Zhang sneered, "How can a fifth-grade family like yours comment on what we do? Tang Song, you've beaten and killed people from my White family. Now it's time for you to pay the price."
"They deserve one beating and one killing."
Bai Xuanzhang shook his head and said, "Regardless of whether they should be beaten or killed, it's not for you to decide. No matter what wrongs the people of our Bai family have done, they are still members of the Bai family, and no one has the right to dispose of them."
Tang Song retorted: "So we should just let you Bai family people bully and kill us as you please?"
"It's an honor for you to die at the hands of the White family." Bai Xuan Zhang said with a proud face.
Tang Song almost laughed out loud, and said with a smile: "No wonder you're from a fifth-grade aristocratic family, you can say such shameless words so confidently, I really admire you."
