Chapter 65 – Brother Jiang Gong, Yellow Waterfall Mountain is almost here!

Ye Sheng and the other person stood up and walked outside, with the Bai Family base engulfed in raging flames behind them.

The towering flames illuminated half the night sky in a crimson glow, visible even from a great distance.

Not long after they had walked away, Ye Sheng suddenly looked up, frowning as he gazed into the distant sky.

In the darkness of the far-off sky, two figures seemed to be flying toward them using Aerial Flight.

“Senior, someone is coming!”

Beside him, Guyue Qing grew somewhat nervous upon seeing people arriving at the Bai Family base at this time.

But it was unclear whether she was nervous for herself…

Or for those two!

The Killing Intent emanating from the god of slaughter beside her was still thick and intense. For them to run into him now—wasn’t that just seeking death?

Why did they have to come to the Bai Family base at this exact moment?

…

At that moment, in the distant night sky.

Two figures were flying through the air, their expressions relaxed and leisurely, completely unaware that a god of slaughter awaited them ahead.

Both were at the 3rd Revolution Ghost General Realm. Today, they had taken on a simple errand: to go to the Bai Family base and mediate an explanation for a certain matter.

“Brother Fu Yuan, you are eloquent and persuasive. When we meet Bai Tingyue at the Bai Family, I’ll have to rely on you to handle the talking!”

Jiang Gong smiled and cupped his hands, acknowledging that he was not as skilled in speech as his colleague.

Fu Yuan clasped his hands behind his back and smiled. “Brother Jiang Gong, you are too modest. We are both working for Xuanming Pavilion! There’s no distinction between us.

Once the matter is settled, the credit will still be split equally between us!”

Hearing this, Jiang Gong laughed heartily. Fu Yuan really knew how to handle things.

Fu Yuan smiled. “Brother Jiang Gong, this matter isn’t difficult!

That kid Ye Sheng has already withdrawn from Xuanming Pavilion. All we need to do is explain to the Bai Family…

If they have any grievances, they should direct them solely at that kid Ye Sheng!

Our Xuanming Pavilion will absolutely not interfere!

After hearing this, Elder Bai Tingyue will surely be very pleased!”

Jiang Gong nodded. “Exactly! It was all that kid’s mess, nothing to do with our Xuanming Pavilion!”

Jiang Gong couldn’t help but sigh. “Who would have thought that a mere 2nd Revolution Cultivator could cause such a Great Catastrophe!

Daring to provoke the Bai Family—he must have had enough of living…”

As he spoke, Jiang Gong shook his head.

The Bai Family was notoriously known for holding grudges like Yazi.

When Bai Family disciples ventured out for training, as long as they revealed their background, no one dared to lay a hand on them.

Even if they offended some great Cultivator,

upon learning of their background, the great Cultivator would at most teach them a lesson or impose some minor punishment but would never take their lives.

Because great Cultivators also knew that killing a Bai Family disciple would be like stirring up a hornet’s nest—endless trouble!

Fu Yuan shook his head. “That kid is just a reckless fool who doesn’t know his limits!

But having provoked the Bai Family, he has no hope of surviving!

Even if he flees to the ends of the earth, the Bai Family will hunt him down to his death!”

“Yes, no one can save him!” Jiang Gong said.

“Yellow Waterfall Mountain is almost here!” Fu Yuan said with a smile.

“Huh? Brother Fu Yuan, do you see a faint glow of fire in the distance? It seems to be deep within Yellow Waterfall Mountain.”

Jiang Gong stared at Yellow Waterfall Mountain, spotting a fiery glow deep within from afar.

Fu Yuan frowned. Reminded by this, he also noticed a faint glow of fire deep within Yellow Waterfall Mountain and said,

“It looks like it’s coming from the direction of the Bai Family base. Could it be on fire?”

The two exchanged a glance and, without a word, quickened their pace, heading toward Yellow Waterfall Mountain.

A moment later.

As they drew closer, their expressions changed drastically. From a distance, they could see the Bai Family base engulfed in raging flames!

From afar, the smell of something burnt could be detected in the air, even mixed with a faint trace of blood.

A gust of wind blew, making the scent of blood even stronger.

“What happened here?”

Fu Yuan’s expression changed drastically!

The Bai Family base was filled with Experts, and it was even guarded by a powerhouse like Bai Tingyue, who had reached the 3rd Revolution Perfection Realm. Who could possibly threaten such a place?

Yet, what was the Bai Family base, now engulfed in flames, all about?

“Hey, there are people in the flames!”

Jiang Gong suddenly widened his eyes.

In the glow of the fire, two figures could be seen walking out.

Jiang Gong said, “Brother Fu Yuan, let’s go ask these two what happened at the Bai Family base!”

“Alright!”

Fu Yuan didn’t think much of it and nodded directly. The Bai Family base was ablaze—surely it couldn’t have been caused by just two people!

Whoosh!

Fu Yuan and Jiang Gong flew over using Aerial Flight and landed on the ground.

The two saw a young man in white robes and a woman with an odd expression.

As soon as he landed, Jiang Gong cupped his hands toward the young man in white robes and urgently asked, “Brother, what happened at the Bai Family base?”

Ye Sheng frowned and glanced at him but didn’t speak.

Beside him, Guyue Qing looked at Jiang Gong as if he were an idiot.

After landing, Fu Yuan took one look at Ye Sheng and his expression changed. He quietly tugged at Jiang Gong’s sleeve, feeling somewhat nervous inside.

The Killing Intent emanating from the young man in white robes before them had solidified into something tangible. Fu Yuan lowered his gaze and clearly saw a long trail of bloody footprints on the ground where the young man had walked.

Not far away, a chipped sword lay on the ground, also stained with blood, and the young man’s hands were similarly covered in blood.

If Fu Yuan wasn’t mistaken, the tragic state of the Bai Family seemed to be inextricably linked to this young man in white robes.

“Why have you come here?”

Ye Sheng spoke, his voice as if from the depths of a frigid hell.

He wanted to confirm whether these two were from the Bai Family.

“We are from Xuanming…”

Jiang Gong instinctively began to reveal their background, but Fu Yuan beside him quickly stopped him.

Fu Yuan forced an awkward smile and said, “Um… we… we were just passing by, yes! Passing by…

My name is Fu Yuan, and he is Jiang Gong. We are not from the Bai Family!

We just happened to see the flames here and came to take a look out of curiosity.”

“Brother Fu Yuan?”

Jiang Gong was taken aback, not understanding what act Fu Yuan was putting on.

Weren’t they here for the Bai Family? How did they suddenly become passersby?

Fu Yuan ignored him, truly exasperated by his lack of intelligence, and simply continued to smile awkwardly at Ye Sheng.

Ye Sheng glanced at the two of them, nodded, and saw that they were indeed not from the Bai Family.

Then, he grabbed Guyue Qing beside him and soared into the sky with a roar, flying off into the distance.

A moment later.

Only Fu Yuan, still shaken, and Jiang Gong, still utterly confused, remained on the spot, unable to make sense of what had just happened.

“Come on, let’s go inside and see what happened at the Bai Family base.”

As Fu Yuan spoke, he didn’t wait for Jiang Gong and strode ahead into the Bai Family base.

Jiang Gong shouted from behind, “Hey, Brother Fu Yuan, you still haven’t explained what that was all about!”

But seeing that Fu Yuan didn’t answer, he had no choice but to follow.

The two hurriedly made their way into the Bai Family base, which was still engulfed in flames.

Then, they witnessed an unbelievable scene.

The Bai Family base was in ruins, with buildings collapsed and debris everywhere.

Fierce fires raged in every direction…

The bodies of the Bai Family disciples were scattered everywhere.

“Is this… still the Bai Family base?”

“What on earth happened?!”

Jiang Gong trembled as he looked upon the scene.

“Follow me!”

Fu Yuan suddenly spoke with a grave expression, having spotted a familiar corpse that bore a striking resemblance to Bai Tingyue of the 3rd Revolution Perfection Realm…
