"Xue'er, what do you think?" Ximen Batian's old eyes squinted as he asked.
"Xue'er will listen to Grandfather. After all, this concerns the future of the Ximen Family Clan, Xue'er's opinion shouldn't be important, right?" If it was in the past, she would probably do as she pleased, but the current her, already had the awareness of being the future successor of the Ximen Family Clan, and her personality was also a lot more mature than before.
"No, I just want to hear your opinion." Ximen Batian said calmly.
"In fact, I used to admire Loong Ao quite a bit. I thought he was capable and powerful, and as Dragon Emperor's successor, he was a perfect man. But since Loong Ao had become Acting Dragon Emperor, his ways, his cruel ways, had been so outrageous that it was as if he had become a different person. Maybe it's because his true nature has been revealed, but he's definitely not a good person! " Ximen Xue said honestly.
"So you're saying that you don't want to agree to the consort?" Ximen Batian asked with narrowed eyes.
Ximen Xue hesitated for a moment before she nodded her head. Then, she continued, "But if you don't agree, then Grandpa will be in a difficult position." "Loong Ao probably won't let us reject it that easily."
"That's Grandfather's business. If Xue'er doesn't want to agree, then don't agree. Once Loong Ao arrives, you can find an excuse to reject him. The remaining grandfather will decide." Ximen Batian thought about it for a moment and reminded Ximen Batian. These words were enough to show Ximen Batian's love for his granddaughter.
"But what excuse can there be?" Ximen Xue said with a troubled expression on her face.
"Weren't you engaged to Prince Loong Xuan before? Even though the marriage contract could be considered to have been broken after Wu Tie's death. But because his predecessor, Dragon Emperor, did not decree the annulment of the marriage contract, it was still valid. As long as you're willing to marry a dead man, this Loong Ao won't be able to do anything to you. " Ximen Batian was a cunning fox indeed.
"Looks like that guy is still useful even when he's dead." Ximen Xue snorted softly when she heard this.
"Actually, judging by Prince Loong Xuan's outstanding achievements in Border of Lianluo, he should be more suitable than Loong Ao to be Dragon Emperor. Unfortunately, he died too early." Ximen Batian also said with some regret.
"That guy?" Forget it! " Ximen Xue retorted in disdain. In her impression, Bai Yuhao was still the same rogue who took away her first kiss.
At the same time, just before the plan against Loong Ao was about to begin, a piece of news that wasn't too bad came from Luo Xiang. With Luo Xiang's powerful intelligence network that she had built in the Imperial City over the past half year, coupled with Mu Yinv's accurate analysis, Ji Feng's whereabouts finally had a clue.
"According to Luo Xiang's information, it is very likely that your brother was brought to Weicheng. It is said that half a year ago, this Wei City had already become a gathering of forces in the shadows by Loong Ao, cultivating one of his elite secret strongholds, which is also heavily guarded. With a large number of Spirit Controller and at least tens of thousands of troops stationed inside the Wei City, even an army of tens of thousands of men might not be able to break into the city. " Mu Yinv said as she looked at the crowd.
"It seems like this Loong Ao had predicted that we would definitely search for Ji Feng with all our might in order to try to rescue him. That's why he didn't bring Ji Feng back to Palace City. That's why we sent Ji Feng to his secret stronghold. Even if we find Ji Feng, it would be difficult for us to rescue him in a short period of time. This way, he would have ample time to convince the Ximen Family Clan. "This Loong Ao is really scheming …" Bai Yuhao said with a cold gaze.
"Who cares what tricks he has up his sleeve. I will immediately send the news back to Ji Family and ask father to bring some people to Weicheng to rescue little brother." Ji Wushuang immediately said.
Tomorrow is the hundred year celebration for the Ximen Family Clan. If we can smoothly break Loong Ao's plan to convince the Ximen Family Clan tomorrow, then Loong Ao will definitely be furious and use Ji Feng to threaten the Ji Family, or even harm Ji Feng. Therefore, we must rescue Ji Feng tomorrow. Bai Yuhao shook his head.
"Then what should we do?" Ji Wushuang's heart was burning with anxiety when she heard Bai Yuhao's words.
"Weicheng is extremely well-fortified. If it's just the few of us alone, I'm afraid it won't be enough to save Ji Feng from Weicheng. And, most inconvenient of all, we cannot trust anyone right now, nor can we summon anyone else to the rescue. "Although if Godly General Liu and I were to join hands and save Ji Feng, we will definitely alert the enemy and affect our plans." Mu Yinv pondered.
"That's why you and father can't go." Bai Yuhao nodded in agreement.
"If Godly General Mu and I don't go, who can save him?" Liu Cheng raised his thick eyebrows and said.
"Looks like I'm the only one who can go." Bai Yuhao said with a cold look in his eyes.
"You want to go alone? No, it was too dangerous. "Besides, Ji Feng is my younger brother, and I should be the one to go there the most." Ji Wushuang understood Bai Yuhao's intentions as soon as she heard his words. Therefore, she immediately became excited.
"Prince Loong Xuan must be in danger alone, I'll go with him." Cao Qinglan was also worried about Bai Yuhao.
"It's more convenient to move alone. Moreover, Wushuang, you still have to go to the Ximen Family Clan first. " Bai Yuhao shook his head.
"Why?" Ji Wushuang looked at Bai Yuhao in confusion.
"Because if I can successfully get to Weicheng tonight, I'll have to at least save Ji Feng at daybreak. I need you to buy me some time, and Godly General Mu and Godly General Liu are not allowed to appear first. Therefore, only you can complete this mission. " Even if he had the confidence to save Ji Feng, it was hard to not rush to the Ximen Family Clan before Loong Ao could convince the Ximen Family Clan. Furthermore, it was possible that something bad might happen. Therefore, what he had asked Ji Wushuang to do was extremely important.
"But …" Ji Wushuang wanted to say something, but she heard Mu Yinv say, "Loong Xuan is right. It seems like, I can only let Loong Xuan save Ji Feng. "
Ji Wushuang looked at Mu Yinv and then looked at Bai Yuhao. After hesitating for a long time, she finally nodded.
"As for the future plans, I'll leave it to you, Godly General Mu." Bai Yuhao looked at Mu Yinv and Liu Tie and said.
"Be careful." Mu Yinv nodded.
"Do you want to tell Yunxuan first …" Liu Cheng looked at Bai Yuhao and said.
"It's better not to, lest she worry. "I'll set off now …" Bai Yuhao said calmly and immediately turned around to leave.
"Qinglan, I'm writing a letter. Please go out immediately for me." After Bai Yuhao left, Mu Yinv suddenly thought of something and said to Cao Qinglan.
Cao Qinglan immediately nodded.
After Bai Yuhao left Liu Cheng's study, he immediately rode his Dragon Scale and flew towards Weicheng …
After a full day of travel, Bai Yuhao finally arrived at Weicheng, which was still under the lights of the city, at midnight.
Bai Yuhao rode on his Dragon Scale and landed at a hidden corner of the city outside the city. He put away his Dragon Scale and then flew up along the city wall.
"As expected, it's just as Godly General Mu said. The guards are truly not ordinary." Bai Yuhao looked around the area of the city walls and pondered for a moment. Then, he suddenly leaped up with great fanfare and landed on the city walls, appearing between the guards in an instant.
When the guards saw a figure suddenly appear in front of them, they were shocked and immediately surrounded Bai Yuhao.
Bai Yuhao immediately pulled out his Frost Wind and under the dim moonlight, it became a ferocious Flame Blade. It jumped with a black luster and was filled with the aura of death.
Immediately following that, a few screams of agony could be heard.
Very soon, the sound of drums and gongs resounded above the entire Wei City.
Instantly, countless shadows swarmed out of the buildings in Weicheng and began to rush towards the city wall.
At this moment, the guards surrounding Bai Yuhao had turned into cold corpses one by one. At the same time, another large group of guards rushed over from both sides of the city wall.
Bai Yuhao looked down at the overlapping figures in the city and immediately smiled.
In the next moment, Bai Yuhao's Spirit Gathering technique shook, and two beast images appeared from within his Ethereal Realm.
"You guys play with them for a while, I'll be right back." After Bai Yuhao finished talking to the two beasts, he leaped and disappeared into the darkness.
Roughly half an hour later, on the west side of Wei City, there was a relatively unremarkable building. Inside and outside of the building, there was a team formed by Spirit Controller from Earth Battle Stage that was patrolling everywhere.
At this time, a figure silently appeared from the shadows of the building, looking at the Earth Battle Stage Spirit Controller who was walking back and forth.
"In the entire Wei City, only this building is completely silent. Moreover, this is an ordinary building, yet there's Earth Battle Stage and Spirit Controller is patrolling inside. It seems like Liu Tie is very likely to be inside this building." Bai Yuhao analyzed calmly.
Very soon, Bai Yuhao climbed up the wall and entered the building. Just as he landed, suddenly, a dozen black figures came flying through the air with some noises.
Bai Yuhao's eyes narrowed and he immediately took a step forward, avoiding the dozen or so black shadows that flew at him. But at the same time, three figures suddenly flew out from the darkness of the building and charged at Bai Yuhao from three different angles, releasing the aura of an early Heaven Sect disciple.
"Scram!" Seeing that, Bai Yuhao immediately shouted. Suddenly, a powerful wave of Spiritual Energy rushed out from his body and formed a violent shockwave that spread out.
In the blink of an eye, three figures that were approaching Bai Yuhao were sent flying before they even touched him. Their bodies rolled rapidly in the air.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three figures crashed into the surrounding walls or buildings.
This small commotion immediately attracted more people in the buildings, including Spirit Controller, who was patrolling inside and outside the buildings, and a few Spirit Controller of the Celestial Master Stage. In an instant, the small building was filled with dozens of figures.
"A powerhouse without Mad God Stage? Does Loong Ao really think that this Weicheng is so well-fortified? Or did he think that as long as there are more people, it would be fine? " Bai Yuhao looked at the group of Spirit Controller who had surrounded him. His cold eyes were emitting a light which made people shocked. He was like a ferocious beast staring at his prey.
Spirit Controller, who was surrounded by Earth Battle Stage, felt a strong sense of fear when he met Bai Yuhao's gaze. What they didn't expect was that this fear would quickly turn into endless fear that would fall into the eighteen levels of hell.
The Frost Wind in Bai Yuhao's hands continued to extend and in the next moment, it turned into a sword of light and passed through the surrounding Spirit Controller.
Afterwards, all sorts of screams rang out.
Wherever Bai Yuhao's figure passed by, Spirit Controller immediately set himself on fire. If he didn't instantly turn into ashes, then he directly exploded, blowing up his broken limbs and filling the sky with his intestines.
Spirit Controller, who hadn't surrounded them yet, had a look of fear on his face when he saw this scene. Some of them had already lost control of their legs and started to panic.
Bai Yuhao rushed to the depths of the building as if he had entered a place devoid of people. Inside the room, there was a door that was heavily surrounded. One didn't even need to look to know that the person that was locked inside was Ji Feng.
"Those who block me, die!" Bai Yuhao's gaze shook as he shouted softly, immediately intimidating Spirit Controller.
The next moment, Bai Yuhao turned into a shadow and dashed into the crowd. In the blink of an eye, several shadows were sent flying into the air.
Immediately afterwards, a powerful black moonblade pierced through the crowd, directly into the center of the door. With a loud bang, a blazing light flashed, and fragments of the moonblade flew in all directions.
While Spirit Controller was still in shock, Bai Yuhao had already flown into the room.
At that moment, within the room, there was a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and big eyes. Other than his ice-cold expression and the fact that he was a bit infuriated, there was nothing else to criticize about his appearance.
However, the most important thing was that Bai Yuhao immediately recognized that the young man was Ji Feng.
Ji Feng had heard the intense noise outside earlier, and it was followed by a tragic scream. Suddenly, he saw someone charge in, causing him to be stunned for a moment with his cold expression.
However, in the blink of an eye, the rope on Ji Feng's body fell off.
"Who are you?" Ji Feng looked at Bai Yuhao, who seemed to be young but exuded a calmness surpassing his age, as well as an enigmatic aura, and could not help but ask.
"Wood is wood. Is this the time to ask? Let's get out of here first. " Bai Yuhao just rolled his eyes at Ji Feng. Then, he turned around and walked out of the room.
When Ji Feng heard Bai Yuhao call him "Wood", he immediately felt that the tone was a bit familiar. However, he still associated Bai Yuhao, who was standing in front of him, with the roommate of that scumbag back then.
However, when Ji Feng saw Bai Yuhao charging in alone, he was also stunned. However, he could tell that Bai Yuhao had come to save him, so he quickly followed him.
Bai Yuhao led Ji Feng out of the room, while Spirit Controller, who was still waiting outside, watched as the two of them walked out. No one dared to move, and they even looked like they were about to kneel and beg for forgiveness …
