C214 Empowerment
On the morning of the second day, many people had gathered outside the City Lord's Mansion. One of them was frowning, and his eyes revealed a fear that was difficult to conceal. Pointing at the corpse in front of the City Lord's Mansion door, they talked amongst themselves.
These corpses were naturally the Dark Pavilion people who had barged into the City Lord's Mansion yesterday night, and among them was Zhuloong's corpse.
In the dark, several factions could not help but frown when they saw this scene. The spies belonging to Bai Family, Dragon Eagle Castle, and Xuelie Gang all had pale faces. They clearly knew who these people were.
On top of a tall building in the City Lord's Mansion, the topography of this tall building was extremely high, and one could easily see the situation outside. Gu Feng and Dongfang Shang were standing here.
"Do you think the people from Bai Family will still send people over at night?" Gu Feng said with a smile.
Dongfang Shang shook his head. "Bai Zhenfeng is not an idiot. He would definitely not send more people over." After a moment of silence, Dongfang Shang continued: "And I suspect that Bai Zhenfeng definitely does not agree with the two times Bai Family attempts to abduct the young miss."
"Oh?" Gu Feng looked up curiously, he was obviously very surprised.
Dongfang Shang looked at the puzzlement on Gu Feng's face and said: "Perhaps you don't know it, back then Bai Zhenfeng had studied at Holy Orchid Institute, although he didn't interact much with the City Lord, but in the capital, the City Lord's aura was always the most dazzling. Besides, Bai Zhenfeng had also participated in the war against the Tianfeng Empire that year. So, he clearly knows how terrifying the City Lord is, and he definitely would not do something so irrational. "
"Then why did the Bai Family send people to kidnap Zhidieh?" Gu Feng became even more confused. Since he knew how terrifying Fenng Wuji was, and this Bai Zhenfeng was no fool, he definitely knew the terrifying consequences of angering Fenng Wuji.
Dongfang Shang sneered: "The Bai Family is different from the other families. Although the Patriarch's name was still under the control of the Patriarch, don't forget that there's still the Supreme Elder Bai Wudi above Bai Zhenfeng. It can be said that that fellow's true control was the Bai Family. If not for the fact that Bai Zhenfeng has a cultivation at the fourth level of the Soul Forging and has quite a bit of prestige among the younger generation, he would have long since been abolished as Patriarch. "
"Zi zi, this Bai Family is really interesting, they actually started an internal conflict." Gu Feng grinned.
"Every clan has internal strife, but when they face strong enemies, they will unite against the outside world." Dongfang Shang's gaze turned serious.
Gu Feng also nodded his head. If Bai Family were to recklessly engage in internal conflict, the consumption rate would definitely be very high, and it would not cause the current situation of Yan City to develop in such a way. That was why Bai Zhenfeng had finally compromised on this matter. It was also because of this that he was still in the position of the family head.
Several elders of Bai Family and Bai Family sat in the great hall. Even the great elder Bai Wudi, who had not shown his face for a long time, sat at the head of the hall with his eyes closed.
Seeing Bai Wudi, who was like a god, a hint of anger flashed across Bai Zhenfeng's eyes. That seat belonged to him, and now Bai Wudi had snatched it away, leaving him with no choice but to stand in the hall.
However, he was clear that the entire Elders Guild belonged to Bai Wudi, and he could only compromise.
"Speak, what happened?" Bai Zhenfeng turned his head and asked the Bai Family Martial Cultivator who was kneeling down.
"The corpses of those assassins from Dark Pavilion were thrown outside the City Lord's Mansion." The voice of the Bai Family Martial Cultivator said with a hoarse voice.
Third Elder Bai Mu was frightened and immediately jumped up from his seat: "Fenng Wuji, it must be Fenng Wuji."
Even though he was only at the first level of the Soul Forging, he was still an expert of the Soul Forging realm.
To kill him, one would at least need the strength of the third level of the Soul Forging. There was only one Soul Forging Realm expert, Fenng Wuji, so who else could it be other than him.
Bai Mu's face instantly turned pale when he thought of Fenng Wuji's anger. Not just him, even the Great Elder was no exception. Worry was written all over his face.
Bai Zhenfeng's gaze swept across the crowd and snorted coldly in his heart: "You bunch of arrogant idiots, now you finally know what fear is? "What did you do earlier? You're the one who has failed to steal a chicken and retracted its grain."
The scene gradually became chaotic, showing how much of a deterrent Fenng Wuji was.
"All of you, shut up." Bai Wudi, who was sitting in the seat of honor, shouted and the scene instantly quieted down. His elderly face was ice-cold and emotionless. Those turbid eyes of his also flashed across the crowd as a cold glint flashed across them.
But all those who were swept by his gaze couldn't help but tremble slightly. It was too terrifying. Just a single glance from Dan Dan, yet he already felt the boundless pressure, causing him to feel a chill down his spine.
"Hmph" Bai Wudi coldly snorted: "Look at how each of you is acting. A single Fenng Wuji has already scared you into this state, and you still have the face to be elders of Bai Family? Yesterday, I noticed that the big battle was not Fenng Wuji, but rather a brat who had just broken through to the Soul Forging Realm. "
"Just broke through into the Soul Forging realm? "Could it be Dongfang Shang?" Bai Zhenfeng's face turned grim.
"It should be him. No one is allowed to go out during these few days, and the kidnapping of Fenng Zhidie is also not allowed to continue. With an Soul Forging Realm expert protecting us, we have no chance. Two days later, once we pack our Mu Family and the Mo Family, even if Fenng Wuji returns, he won't be able to do anything to our Bai Family. At that time, our entire Bai Family will be in the hands of our Bai Family. " At this point, Bai Wudi's face also flashed with excitement. The hard work of several generations was finally coming to fruition in his hands. How could he not be excited?
"Yes."
Everyone accepted the order and walked out, with excitement written all over their faces. Fenng Wuji was indeed very powerful, a strong practitioner in the Eighth Level of Soul Forging Stage, but they, the Grand Elder, were even more terrifying. The ninth level of the Soul Forging, and it seemed like they had already faintly broken through to the peak of the Soul Forging realm. It wouldn't be too much to say that he was the number one under the Soul Condensation realm. Just Fenng Wuji, what was there to be afraid of?2
"Idiot."
Bai Zhenfeng roared furiously in his heart. He had seen Fenng Wuji's terror. That was either a human or a pervert.
