Although he was fantasizing about the future of the Bai family, he didn't dare to show it on his face in front of this extremely powerful person. He didn't want his carelessness to cause the other party to have a bad influence on him. However, Barry had clearly forgotten that everything he had done to the black-robed man had already made the black-robed man very dissatisfied. If it were not for his ancestor's promise, he would have killed Barry and the black-robed man long ago.
As he was thinking about this, Barry's expression became more and more respectful as he said to the black-robed man,"May I know what important matter Milord has come to this small Fenshui Town for? If you need me, please instruct me. I will definitely satisfy Milord.”
"Yes, yes, our He family will definitely do our best for you, sir.”
When He Wei saw that Bai Riley was one step ahead of him and was trying to curry favor with him, he was very dissatisfied. He immediately expressed his 'loyalty' to this lord!
Seeing their expressions, the black-robed man naturally knew what they were thinking and waved his hand disdainfully.
"Is my matter something you can ask about? Didn't I say before that I came to your Bai Family to fulfill my ancestor's promise? If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't waste my time with those tricks. I can pinch you to death with a flick of my finger. What use do I have for you? You are not qualified to curry favor with the Heaven Defying Palace! In my eyes, you are no different from those ants and trash. Our Heaven Defying Palace doesn't raise trash. Put away your thoughts and don't think about those unrealistic things. There is a huge difference between fantasy and reality.”
As he spoke, the black-robed man slowly took a few steps forward. His movements seemed slow, but there was something extremely mysterious in them. It seemed casual, but it made people feel fear.
Just as Riley was about to say something, he suddenly felt that there was someone behind him. This gave him a fright! There was only Leader He by her side. Why was there suddenly such a person behind her? She suddenly turned her head ~
Bailey was shocked when he saw the person behind him! This was because this person was the black-robed man who had slowly walked forward. He remembered that the black-robed man was still in front of him just now. Why did he suddenly run behind him? It was rare that they were not the same person!
As he thought about it, Bailey turned around and saw that the black-robed man was still slowly walking towards him. However, when Bailey was about to ask who the person behind him was, the black-robed man who was slowly walking in front of him suddenly became faint, as if he was about to blend into the air. He became more and more blurry and soon disappeared into the air.
" Afterimage!!!"
When Bailey and Leader He saw this scene, their pupils could not help but shrink. They could not help but cry out, their hearts filled with shock! This…this was a Heavenly Realm expert! The speed was so fast that it even left an impact in the air. Moreover, this phantom actually maintained its speed for so long. This speed was too ridiculously fast! Riley felt that today was the most exciting and shocking day of his life. He was at a loss.
The black-robed man slowly sat down on an armchair and spoke again.
"Speak. As long as it is within my ability and I am willing to do it, I will definitely be able to do it. Remember, after this matter is settled, I will have nothing to do with your Bai Clan anymore. If you dare to talk nonsense about our Heaven Defying Palace and damage our supreme reputation, then your Bai Clan will no longer exist. Oh, and the same goes for your He Clan. If I hear anything about the Heaven Defying Palace, regardless of whether it has anything to do with you or not, your two clans will be…exterminated.”
The black-robed man's voice was calm. His words were very casual, as if it was a trivial matter. However, this calm tone carried an irresistible majesty and a decisive killing aura.
Although the black-robed man's words were casual, it scared Bailey and Riley so much that their hearts almost jumped out of their mouths. They were so scared that they nodded repeatedly in agreement. Although it was indeed a pity that they could not curry favor with the Heaven Defying Palace, they did not dare to say anything. If they angered this expert in front of them again, they could not guarantee that they would be able to see the sun tomorrow.
"Tell me, what do you need me to do? I don't have time to waste with ignorant humans like you. If there's nothing else, I'll leave.”The black-robed man said impatiently.
Hearing his words, Bailey's heart pounded. Although he couldn't curry favor with a force like the Heaven Defying Palace, he could solve his future problems. Ling Clan! A thorn in his side. As for the Li family, it was not a big problem. As long as the Ling Family was destroyed, he would be able to dominate Fenshui Town.
At the thought of this, Larry's eyes turned and he hurriedly said respectfully to the black-robed man,"Esteemed Lord, there is indeed a very troublesome matter in our Bai family. There are four relatively large families in Fenshui Town. They are the Bai family, the Ling family, the He family, and the Li family.”Bailey paused for a moment and said,"
"And this Ling family, relying on their own strength, often oppresses our Bai family, and they even have the tendency to exterminate us. All these years, under the pressure of the Ling Family, our Bai Family has been declining day by day. We are already facing the danger of being destroyed. Sir, please help us destroy the Ling Family and solve this crisis for our Bai Family.!”
The black-robed man did not consider the authenticity of the question. He refused without thinking,"No, I can't kill too many people here. If the people in the branch palace know about this, it will be troublesome. Moreover, this would also affect the advancement of his cultivation in the future.”
Seeing that the black-robed man had refused so straightforwardly and even said so much nonsense, Bailey could not help but curse this old man in his heart.
Knowing that there was no hope of exterminating the Ling family, Bailey could only take a step back and smile apologetically,""Milord is right. How would I dare to make things difficult for Milord? It's just that my Bai family is already facing a life-and-death situation. We don't dare to trouble you to kill so many people. As long as you help us kill the only son of the Ling family, Ling Aoran, it will be fine.”
"Oh! Just kill one person? That's not a problem." The black-robed man replied indifferently.
Then, Bai Riley told the black-robed man about Ling Aoran's general situation. Of course, he did not mention Ling Aoran's cultivation talent. He didn't dare to say it. If he did, who knew if the black-robed man would cherish his talent and bring Ling Aoran to the Heaven Defying Palace. If that happened, the situation would be bad.
"Alright, I'll take action tonight. Just wait for my news.”After saying that, the black-robed man's figure gradually faded, and then he turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.
After the black-robed man left, Bailey grinned and said to Leader He,"Hehe, I want to see how that little bastard Ling Aoran can survive tonight. Let's see if he dies this time! He hoped that the people of the Ling Family would protect Ling Aoran 'well' so that more and more people would die. It would be best if even the Supreme Elder of the Ling Family would come out to resist that lord's attack. That way, the end of the Ling Family would not be far away! Haha…"
"Not bad! Hehe…Haha…" Bailey and Riley's laughter spread throughout the entire Bai family.
The night was quiet and everyone was asleep. In the quiet and peaceful atmosphere, the autumn breeze brought with it a slight chill, sweeping up the lonely fallen leaves and guiding them back to the earth. The silver moonlight shone on the ground, and the sad cries of the crickets could be heard everywhere.
The fragrance of the night filled the air, weaving into a soft net that covered all the scenery. Everything that his eyes came into contact with was covered by this soft net. Even the grass and trees were not as realistic as they were in the daytime. They all had blurry and illusory colors. Each of them hid its details and kept its secrets, making people feel like they were in a dream.
Ling Aoran's family of three sat in the Ling Family's courtyard and chatted harmoniously. From time to time, happy laughter could be heard. It looked very warm.
"Father! I have a question I've been wanting to ask you, but I don't know if I should say it.”Ling Aoran was lying in Li Xinlian's arms as she spoke to Ling Batian shyly.
Looking at Ling Aoran's hesitant expression, Ling Batian said casually,""Kid, if you have anything to say, just say it. What's there to be embarrassed about?" Ling Batian picked up his teacup and drank in a rough manner.
Ling Aoran snuggled in Li Xinlian's arms and found a comfortable place. She then said weakly,""I want to ask, why didn't Uncle get married and have children?”
Puff!
Hearing his son's words, Ling Batian spat out the tea he had just drank.
"This…uh! How should I put it? Because your uncle made a mistake in his cultivation back then and left a hidden illness behind, so…Cough cough! "It's just that I don't have that function in that area…" Ling Batian looked awkwardly at his wife, then looked at his son who was looking at him with anticipation.
"Then what is a hidden disease? What kind of function is that…" Ling Aoran asked innocently with a baffled expression.
"Alright, alright, Ran 'er, it's late at night ~ You should go back to your room to rest!”Li Xinlian, who was hugging Ling Aoran, patted Ling Aoran's head and instructed him when she heard Ling Aoran's shameless attitude. It was obvious that she didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore.
"Okay, Mother!" Although Ling Aoran was curious, since his mother had given the order, he had to do as she said. He replied and prepared to return to his room to rest.
Suddenly, the air distorted and a black shadow appeared in front of the three of them.
"Who is it?"
The sudden appearance of this uninvited guest made Ling Batian feel uneasy. He quickly stood up and stood in front of Li Xinlian and her son, asking nervously,"Who are you? It's already so late, what business do you have with my Ling family?”The black-robed man ignored Ling Batian and stared at Ling Aoran with a burning gaze.
"You're Ling Aoran? He didn't expect that at such a young age, he was already at the peak of the Spirit Concentration Realm. He was truly an unprecedented peerless genius! It's a pity that I was entrusted by someone to take your life. Otherwise, I would definitely take you as my disciple.”As he spoke, the man sighed and turned into a black shadow, rushing towards Ling Aoran.
