"Hahaha, why would I not dare? What is there that I, Bai Shengjun, would not dare to do!"
The old man Bai walked closer to Bai Wanting and looked at her, "Junior Sister, do you know how Master departed?"
These words, upon reaching Bai Wanting's ears, caused her pupils to constrict sharply.
"It was you! Bai Shengjun, it was you who harmed Master!"
Seeing Bai Wanting's shocked expression, the old man Bai laughed heartily.
"Junior Sister, Master, this old man, though he always said he favored me, his disciple, the truth is... he favored you the most. He said that both my junior brother and I harbored evil intentions, but you did not. You were his most satisfactory successor."
"Junior Sister, you see, Master, this old man, how insidious he was. He clearly wished for you to be his successor, yet he spoke of both my junior brother and me in good terms, making us fight for hundreds of years. All this was to protect this place for you while your wings were not yet fully grown."
As he spoke, the old man Bai's expression changed.
"Unfortunately, Master's intentions were discovered by my junior brother and me. He panicked then. He also told my junior brother to protect you well, and also told us to assist you well. Hahaha, what a colossal joke. My junior brother and I fought tooth and nail for the position of successor."
"In the end, he actually wanted you, Junior Sister, to become his successor. In that case, what were my junior brother and I?"
His eyes suddenly turned red, filled with intense hatred. "To toy with my junior brother and me like this, what were we? Hmph, he didn't have us, my junior brother and me, in his heart at all. It was all you. We were all pawns, do you understand pawns, Junior Sister!"
"Even so, you could not harm Master. Master imparted all his lifelong spiritual power to you both!"
The pain in her body had almost subsided, and Bai Wanting's complexion had eased somewhat.
"Hahaha..."
As if hearing the greatest joke in the world.
The old man Bai laughed loudly, "Junior Sister, do you really think Master, this old man, truly imparted all his lifelong spiritual power to us?"
These words made Bai Wanting frown; she didn't quite understand.
"Master, this old man, only imparted some spiritual power to my junior brother and me. He said that both my junior brother and I had spiritual roots, and we could improve our cultivation by diligently practicing ourselves. Ha! That old scoundrel, full of lies, wrote the spiritual techniques into a book. He even intended to give this book to you, Junior Sister, for you to cultivate well!"
"Haha, unfortunately... it was intercepted by my junior brother and me. My junior brother had long since cultivated demonic power and had already decided to become a demon. And anyone who cultivates demonic power cannot continue to cultivate immortal methods. Likewise, the spiritual techniques were useless to him."
"In the end, the spiritual techniques were taken by me. I succeeded in cultivating them, and my spiritual power greatly increased. As for my junior brother, since he had already decided to become a demon, he established the Demon Realm by himself and became the contemporary Demon Emperor. As for Master, this old man, my junior brother and I naturally could not let him off easily."
"We extracted his spiritual bones, dispersed the spiritual power within his body, and inserted seventy-seven needles into various acupoints in his body, causing him to die in agony. After his death, my junior brother and I used our respective skills to design his death to look like a peaceful passing."
"Bai Shengjun, you... you... you are utterly wicked and will die a terrible death!"
Bai Wanting gritted her teeth and spat out the curse.
"Junior Sister, do you know the consequence of uttering those words?"
The old man Bai suddenly smiled at Bai Wanting.
Following that, he flicked his sleeve.
A bloody tongue fell to the ground.
Bai Wanting's mouth was full of blood.
Her tongue had been cut off.
"Wuwu... wuwu..."
Bai Wanting let out a pained cry.
The old man Bai looked at her, his mood exceptionally good. He even raised a finger and stroked her cheek, "Junior Sister, look how well-behaved you are when you're not speaking. Junior Sister, now your good daughter has also killed my junior brother. Among our fellow disciples, only you and I remain."
"The play that follows, only you and I will continue to watch. However... how exciting this play will be depends on your precious daughter, my good disciple, Xiao Yingzi."
"I, this Saint Monarch, believe that the upcoming play will certainly be very exciting. My disciple has never disappointed me. Of course... Junior Sister, Senior Brother believes you will not disappoint me either. Junior Sister, you must live well. We will watch together how Xiao Yingzi makes this play spectacular!"
With his words, the old man Bai flicked his sleeve and pointed at Bai Wanting.
Then, he left, instructing the two immortal attendants guarding the door as he went, "Guard well!"
"Yes, Saint Monarch."
Outside the hall, Gu Nian and Hu Keke knelt respectfully, each holding several bloody, mangled heads.
When the old man Bai saw this, he walked over. He noticed a scratch on Gu Nian's face and blood on Hu Keke's arm.
"Injured?"
Upon hearing this question.
Gu Nian and Hu Keke prostrated themselves, not daring to rise.
"It seems you have been living too leisurely these past few days, your abilities have regressed. Go... undergo training in the Ten Thousand Man Cave and then return."
Gu Nian and Hu Keke placed the heads in their hands, then rose with expressionless faces and left together.
From beginning to end, neither of them had spoken a word, nor had they refuted anything.
After they left, the old man Bai looked at the bloody heads on the ground, among which were several recently cultivated young immortal attendants.
A satisfied smile curved his lips.
Those who defied him deserved to die!
He flicked his sleeve, and the heads on the ground instantly vanished.
He stood outside the hall, gazing at the bright sky.
"These Six Realms should have changed rulers long ago! Hahaha..."
At the same time.
Still at the Song family, sitting around a table with Song Wuji and others, Gu Qianying saw three more people appear before her.
She swallowed the words she was about to speak.
Bai Li Su remained silent at this moment.
However, the woman calling herself Lu Yue, seated beside Song Wuji, looked at Gu Qianying and spoke, "I heard you are a divine doctor. How is your medical skill?"
Her tone was arrogant and rude, her chin raised, displaying a condescending attitude.
Song Wuji, Bai Li Jingxu, and the others frowned.
Gu Qianying also showed displeasure.
But before she could speak, Bai Li Su, seated beside her, spoke with a cold tone, "Miss Lu, do you know the difference between someone who is impolite and someone whose mouth emits a foul odor?"
The sudden question made Lu Yue pause.
Beside her, the two people calling themselves Lu Qing and Miss Meng looked rather displeased.
But Lu Yue, however, did not understand.
She actually asked, "What is the difference?"
At this moment, everyone looked at her.
"The difference lies in whether Miss Lu defines herself as the former or the latter."
Bai Li Su's words were not kind.
Gu Qianying smiled.
Everyone, except Lu Qing and Miss Meng, also smiled.
Having reached this point, Lu Yue still did not understand, "Young Master Bai Li, what do you mean by that?"
Bai Li Su kindly explained, "Miss Lu, are you the former or the latter?"
