Two days before Luo Tian left the ancient cave.

Two columns of elite guards from the Bai family arrived at Martial Mountain City.

They surrounded the Gambling Pavilion, but they didn’t attack and only wanted Dongfang Shuo to hand over the person they wanted.

Dongfang Shuo didn’t give a ** about what they were doing. He only sneered, “Tell your Bai family’s Patriarch Bai Qi to come see me. I would like to see if he would dare ask me to hand over someone in front of my face. A mere silver level clan dares to act mighty in front of me, Dongfang Shuo? Kid, you need to take a step back and measure your abilities. You are surrounding the Gambling Pavilion. The Dongfang family’s Gambling Pavilion. Can you see the word Dongfang on the signboard?”

The leader of the guards was called Bai Shan.

He was a middle-aged man in his forties and was in the Condensation Element cultivation realm.

In front of Dongfang Shuo, he didn’t give the order to attack right away. Of course, it wasn’t that he was afraid. On the contrary, he was not afraid at all. He merely smiled and said, “It is precisely because it is the Dongfang family that I haven’t made a move. If it weren’t for the Dongfang family, your building would have already been demolished. As for you… Brother Dongfang, I’m not trying to look down on you, but even if your cultivation is higher than mine, it’s impossible for you to be a match for my Bai family’s elite. Today, I have to take that kid’s head back, or else I won’t be able to explain that I have accomplished my task. I am hoping that Brother Dongfang will give me some face, and I, Bai Shan, will properly repay you in the future.”

Bai Shan was not afraid one bit.

He naturally knew the power of the Dongfang family.

The main reason he was not afraid was because of Dongfang Shuo.

As the core member of the Bai family, he naturally knew why Dongfang Shuo ended up in a tiny place like Martial Mountain City.

If Dongfang Shuo was a core member of the Dongfang family, the Bai family with ten thousand guts would never dare to send people here to ask for a person. Not to mention saying the words of demolishing their building.

Before Bai Shan came here, he had already sent someone to the Dongfang family for clarification.

This was diplomacy before violence!

After all, Dongfang Shuo’s surname was Dongfang. Just that family name was something you cannot randomly touch.

Dongfang Shuo sneered, “The person you want is in my courtyard. If you, Bai Shan, have the guts, come in and capture him. If you don’t have the guts, then scram as far away as you can!”

Mighty and domineering.

Dongfang Shuo wasn’t giving Bai Shan any face!

He was guessing Bai Shan would not dare to attack the Gambling Pavilion.

Bai Shan’s mouth curved into a smile, “Brother Dongfang, are you really not giving me any face?”

“Do I even know you?”

Dongfang Shuo then continued aggressively, “Nope, I don’t know you. What qualifications do you have for me to give you face? Who do you think you are?”

He wanted to protect Luo Tian!

The moment Luo Tian entered his Gambling Pavilion, he decided to protect him!

Even though Luo Tian wasn’t in the Gambling Pavilion, Bai Shan would chase him to the Martial Mountain Range once he found out he wasn’t there. Luo Tian would then end up in a precarious situation. He could not back down until he was sure Luo Tian had enough time to disappear into the depths of the mountain!

That meant he absolutely could not let the Bai family people enter the Gambling Pavilion to search.

Bai Shan’s face turned ugly before he harrumphed, “Tightly surround the Gambling Pavilion! Don’t let even a fly come out! I would like to see how long that kid can hide in there!”

After that, he looked up at Dongfang Shuo inside the Gambling Pavilion before scoffing.

“You just wait and see.”

“Once my people come back from the Dongfang family, you will have a good time then.”

Day by day passed by.

On the eleventh day after Luo Tian left the city, the Bai family disciple sent to the Dongfang family returned.

During those eleven days, the elite disciples of the Bai family surrounded the Gambling Pavilion so tightly that not even a mouse could get by.

“Good!”

“I knew this would happen! Hahaha…”

Bai Shan walked out from his resting tent. He was exceptionally happy after receiving the news brought back by the disciple he had sent out earlier. He had had enough of feeling angry for more than ten days, and now it was time for him to vent it all out!

Bai Shan then shouted, “Bai family disciples, listen to my order! Charge in there and capture that guy! Whoever dares to block you, kill!”

Dongfang Shuo’s expression darkened as he shouted back, “You dare?!”

Bai Shan smiled smugly, “Dongfang Shuo, go ahead and watch if I dare to or not! You have broken the rule of the Dongfang family by interfering with Martial Mountain City’s matters. Moreover, you are merely an outcast of the Dongfang family. The entire Bai family already knows you are only a piece of trash from a commoner concubine. They haven’t touched you because they were giving you some face. But if a thing like you, who won’t accept face when I’m giving you face, dares to interfere with my search, I will immediately capture you as well!”

The only son of the former Patriarch of the Dongfang family was being talked about like this.

Dongfang Shuo’s anger instantly burst out. Why should he care anymore? Thinking back to Luo Tian’s previous words, “Fuck them over if you aren’t willing to submit. Kill them if they piss you off. You only live one life, so do whatever your heart wants!”

Kill them if they piss you off!

He took one step and appeared on the ground before sending a Bai family disciple flying.

Instant kill!

The atmosphere was already tense here.

The fight broke out in an instant!

“I would like to see who dares to take a single step into my Gambling Pavilion.” Dongfang Shuo stood in front of the building entrance with eyes blazing like torches.

At this time, Yao Hai rushed out and stood next to Dongfang Shuo.

The old steward and workers all filed out and stood there.

Bai Shan sneered, “I gave you guys face, but you won’t accept it. Kill them all!”

The elite disciples of the Bai family all had cultivations in the Four Elements realm.

Even though Dongfang Shuo’s cultivation was stronger, there were too many elite disciples from the Bai family. And he had to split his attention to take care of others.

In less than half a day, Dongfang Shuo, Yao Hai, and the old steward were captured. The rest of the workers and staff were killed. Blood flowed like a river in the Gambling Pavilion, and the building was unsteady, like it could collapse at any moment.

“We couldn’t find that kid surnamed Luo.”

“What’s going on?”

“Dongfang Shuo, that kid broke the rules of our Bai family. He has to die no matter what. As long as you tell me where he is, I will not make things difficult for you,” said Bai Shan with his brow furrowed.

Dongfang Shuo maintained his arrogant attitude and said, “I, Dongfang Shuo, will never betray my friend.”

Bai Shan’s eyes turned cold as he said, “Fine, then you leave me with no choice. I have to give the Bai family and the thirteen sects in Martial Mountain City an explanation. Since you are making things difficult for me, I can only bring you back to the Bai family and let the Elders make a decision.”

He was just following orders.

Bai Shan brought Dongfang Shuo and the other two out of the Gambling Pavilion.

Coincidentally, they encountered Bai Lingling and Bai Xiong, who had just left the Martial Mountain Range.

Bai Shan’s expression faintly changed.

He had been in Martial Mountain City these few days, but he had heard what had happened in Towering Cloud City.

Ouyang Ye brought back news that Bai Lingling and Bai Xiong had died in the Martial Mountain Range. The Bai family hung up a white cloth along their doorway because of it, but the two of them were alive and well before him. Bai Shan asked in confusion, “Little Ling’er, Bai Xiong, you two…”

Bai Lingling saw Bai Shan and was immediately relieved. She ran over and said, “Uncle Bai Shan! It’s great that you’re here! Quickly give me a group of people so I can go back to the Martial Mountain Range to save someone!”

Bai Lingling then brought out the Dark Yin Crystal and handed it to Bai Shan, “Please bring this Dark Yin Crystal back and save my father first. Tell him I will be back very soon!”

Bai Shan was her father’s confidante and the brother he trusted the most.

Naturally, she wasn’t going to suspect him of anything.
