Bai Clan
Yang Tian arrived at Central State, the place where adepts gathered, after a dangerous two-month long journey. The vital essence was more potent than on Eastern Continent, making it a more ideal place for cultivation. He noticed an ancient city in the corner. It was another towering city. There were rainbows above. Adepts jumped up every now and then. He was so perceptive he could tell it was a large spiritual mountain, hence capable of absorbing vital essence. He also realised Bai Clan’s base was there. One needed to pay bloodstones to cultivate in the city. He nodded and smiled to himself.
Eastern Sea Ship Company was a prominent company. Escaping with their lives was worth celebrating with laughter.
Bai Ningxiu: “Brother Meng Tian, we’ve arrived. This way.”
Yang Tian nodded and transformed his appearance and aura to avoid Wu Clan as they saw his real appearance before. Bai Ningxiu curled her lips as she watched. He then followed her. Bai Clan was astounded to see him. Bai Ningxiu rarely welcomed men. Gao Da could immediately tell who the youth with her was. He was grateful. It was all thanks to Yang Tian he managed to reach Battle King Realm. The middle-aged man couldn’t read the mysterious youth’s power. Yang Tian was just too amazing.
Yang Tian got off the ship with the others in tow. He scanned the void in front with a faint smile. Four people hid inside said void. An elder was stunned to see the amazing Yang Tian’s gaze on him.
Elder in white before said elder: “Second Elder, what’s the matter? We’ll be entering the city if we don’t strike now.”
The elder waved his hand with a grim expression. “We’ve been spotted. There’s a mysterious adept with them as you surmised. Given his extraordinary Divine Soul, I think it’s safe to assume he’s an alchemist.”
The elder in white hesitated and eventually asked, “Second Elder, what should we do?”
Second Elder smiled wrathfully. “Find out who he is. If he’s here to start trouble, we’ll have to ask Wu Liqing to call on Unfettered Valley.”
Second Elder: “Hmph, whoever you may be, if you stick your nose in our clan dispute, nobody can save you!”
Yang Tian kept surveying his surroundings as he walked. He was worried about his brother and friends, for Eastern Sea wasn’t easy to cross. However, he had no idea enemies were already encroaching upon them. They arrived at a large estate with jade staircases, a crimson door with two white Mutated Beast statues on either side. The sentries went to welcome the group upon seeing Bai Ningxiu. An elder with a bright expression said, “Welcome back, Miss.”
Bai Ningxiu gave the elder a small nod. “Fourth Deity, has the estate been well? Has Wu Clan attacked?”
“Well… They did come to ask for your hand in marriage five days ago and wounded Third Elder.”
Bai Ningxiu gnashed her teeth and glared. “Damn creeps. Keep dreaming. They’re not worthy of me.”
Yang Tian touched his nose. What a mess, he thought, feeling hopeless.
The interior of the estate was majestic and glowed holy. Every building was amazing. They were reinforced with formations. Yang Tian detected lots of strong individuals. When they reached a conference hall, they heard arguing. They argued over how to approach the upcoming tournament. In a gentle voice, Bai Ningxiu announced, “Dad, I’m back.”
Everyone turned to the three who entered. They were surprised to see the unknown youth. There was a beautiful girl at the front wondering why Bai Ningxiu brought an outsider home. Her father waked over and eagerly asked, “Was the journey smooth?”
Bai Ningxiu nodded and smiled. “You could say that. We’ve brought back bloodstones.”
“Haha, that’s good. It’s been rough on you. With the bloodstones, we can ask Star River Sect for help. That’ll boost our chances.”
Yang Tian would have trouble on his hands if Star River Sect found out he possessed Star Scroll and Star Token, which belonged to them.
“Dad, there’s no need to ask Star River Sect for help. I’ve brought an adept back,” said Bai Ningxiu, pointing to Yang Tian with a mischievous smile.
Everyone turned their attention to Yang Tian. The girl in white felt something was odd about him. He touched his nose. They were all expectedly hostile. They were all young. He felt the need to chuckle to himself. They treated him as a love rival.
Bai Ningxiu’s father: “What is your name, young man?”
Yang Tian performed propitious salute. “This one is Meng Tian.”
A twenty-four-year-old youth went up to look Yang Tian in the face. “Meng Tian… I’ve never heard of the name in Central State.”
Everyone wanted to know how skilled Yang Tian was. Nobody would believe a twenty-year-old was an Almighty Realm adept. Their most talented girl couldn’t win the tournament, so how could the youth younger than her win the tournament? The youth condescendingly mocked, “You’re not worthy of participating.”
The youth then quickly switched temperament. “Ningxiu, don’t let this con artist deceive you. I’ve come across many of his kind.”
Bai Ningxiu: “Hmph, participate if you’re so good, Bai Shan. Shut up, otherwise. You wouldn’t even dare to get in the ring.”
“You…” Bai Shan glanced over to Yang Tian wrathfully. “I’d like to see what you’re made of.”
Bai Shan palmed toward Yang Tian’s chest.”
