Chapter 269 Thoughts
Mrs. Bai was extremely anxious, but after the boss finished speaking, he took his men and left the Bai family on his own.
On the way back on horseback.
"Big Brother, I don't think Mrs. Bai is lying. I guess the Bai family won't be able to come up with a hundred spirit stones within two days. By then, will it really be..." The third brother asked after hesitating.
"The Bai family breached the contract first, so they are destroyed. With this precedent, no one will dare to owe us mission compensation in the future." The boss said in a flat tone.
"The head of the Bai family and a group of elite members of the family are away, so it won't be difficult to destroy the Bai family. However, will this cause other families in Yanfeng Town to feel insecure?" The third brother expressed his concerns. After all, as long as they don't leave this place, they will inevitably have to deal with other cultivation families.
"As long as the transactions are normal, what do they have to fear?"
"But..." The third brother still had concerns.
"After we wipe out the Bai family, the head of the Bai family and his clansmen will definitely seek revenge on our Baiyun Martial Arts School when they return. You know, the master always likes quietness, and when the time comes, they will come to us..." It is impossible for them to do nothing else and just keep an eye on when the Bai family will return.
The eldest brother turned around and said to him in an inexplicable tone: "Third brother, there are some things you don't understand."
"What, what do you mean?" The third brother was confused.
"Third brother, you don't have to worry. Just listen to the eldest brother." The second brother suddenly spoke.
"That's right!" The fourth brother also echoed.
The third brother's expression changed slightly. The gap in strength between him and the other three widened, and the three of them were already showing signs of excluding him. But he could do nothing about it. He had seen all the hardships that his three brothers had suffered, and even if he was given the opportunity to choose again, he probably wouldn't dare to accept it.
These three brothers were acting more and more perverse and cruel, without regard for the consequences. This was not only the case this time, but also when they had conflicts with other cultivators in Jiufeng Mountain.
When the eldest brother saw that the third brother was silent, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
What the third brother didn't understand was that their master was not a kind person. They didn't know whether it was because of their special path of cultivation, or because they had been on the verge of death many times, which made them enter a strange state when their consciousness was blurred. In short, they had felt a bottomless evil in their master more than once.
The feeling was so strong that they could hardly forget it. If one day, the master suddenly became unhappy and killed everyone in Qingyang Town and Yanfeng Town, they would not be surprised at all! ! That was pure desire for killing and destruction.
……
Two days passed quickly, and the four of them arrived at the gate of Bai Mansion again.
He was still riding a tall horse, but this time he did not enter the house, but stood directly outside the gate of Bai Mansion. They asked the gatekeeper to report.
Mrs. Bai has been very busy these past two days. The Bai family has some business and personal dealings with other families. Now that the head of the family is not around and something like this has happened, she has to swallow her pride and ask them for help.
However, after learning the whole story, those families were polite on the surface, but in fact none of them made a clear statement that they would help or temporarily lend spiritual stones for emergency use.
After all, the families were competitors. If the Bai family was destroyed, a piece of cake would naturally be left. Moreover, after the Bai family's head came back, there would inevitably be a fierce conflict with the Baiyun Martial Arts School. After all, the family was destroyed, which was an irreconcilable contradiction. They also took advantage of the Bai family's outburst to spy on the strength of the Baiyun Martial Arts School's head.
So although Mrs. Bai traveled to many places in the past two days, she achieved little results.
Now, she heard the servants come to report that the disciples of Baiyun Martial Arts School had arrived at the door. Although Mrs. Bai looked haggard, she still cheered up and went out to meet them.
"Why do the four young men have to be so distant with each other? Why don't you come into the mansion, have a cup of tea, and sit down to talk in detail." Mrs. Bai had a smile on her face.
"Take the spirit stone, or die!" The boss sat steadily on the tall horse, looking down at Mrs. Bai, too lazy to talk nonsense with her.
Mrs. Bai's face froze. How could she afford the spiritual stones? The bidding for the marrow cleansing pill was fierce due to the auction, and she spent nearly 150 spiritual stones to get it.
When his master went out two years ago, he needed to take all the elite members of the family with him, and the family was empty. Therefore, when he left, he took away almost all the valuable training resources in the mansion, leaving only an empty shell. There was no need to worry that after they left, someone would take risks and target the Bai family.
So Madam Bai really couldn’t come up with any spirit stones, not even half of them.
At present, there are only three or four old servants in the Bai Mansion who are at the first level of Yuan Realm, and they are simply unable to stop the four ferocious monsters.
Seeing Mrs. Bai's expression, the four knew that they had no hope of getting the reward for the mission. A strong murderous aura burst out of their bodies, bloodshot appeared in the eyes of the four people, and the horses under them began to pace restlessly.
Although Madam Bai was not a cultivator, she was the wife of the Patriarch of the Bai Family after all, so she had some knowledge. Seeing that the four men really wanted to kill her, she hurriedly said anxiously: "I really don't have any spiritual stones now, but can you compensate me in other ways?"
"Hmm?" The boss's expression changed slightly. They got the spirit stones to buy the things they needed for cultivation. If the Bai family had the good quality refining materials they needed, or a large amount of exotic beast meat and spirit rice, it would not be out of the question.
At present, although the hostility in their hearts has become heavier due to the special method of cultivation, it has not yet reached the point where they cannot control their murderous intent.
"Go and invite the cousin out quickly." Mrs. Bai breathed a sigh of relief and instructed the servants.
Soon, a beautiful and elegant woman walked over and appeared outside the gate of Bai Mansion.
The woman looked like a beauty from an ancient painting, wearing a plain and elegant dress, with a look of tranquility like autumn water flowing between her brows. Her lips were red without any makeup, and although they were not bright in color, they exuded a quiet charm that was hard to ignore.
There was a vague aura of coolness surrounding her, but she didn't keep people at a distance. Instead, she was like a green chrysanthemum, with a special kind of gentleness in her coolness, which made people want to get closer to her and unconsciously feel pity for her.
Mrs. Bai was also feeling upset. This beautiful woman was the daughter of a sworn brother of the master when he was young. The brother had met with an accident and was dying. Before he died, he came to the house and entrusted his young daughter to the master to raise.
The master naturally agreed readily, considering their old friendship. She had no objection, as it would just be one more mouth to feed in the mansion.
Unexpectedly, as she grew older, the girl became more and more beautiful. Mrs. Bai began to think about marrying her to her son, which would be a good thing. So she gradually showed more care and concern for her than before, treating her as her future daughter-in-law.
Perhaps because she lost her parents when she was young and then lived under someone else's roof, the woman had a calm and peaceful personality, never fighting or competing, rarely showing sadness or joy, and was as calm as someone who had cut off all ties with the world. This was the only thing that Mrs. Bai was slightly dissatisfied with her.
But it was precisely because of her character that when Mrs. Bai found her and told her about the crisis of the Bai family, the woman was silent for a moment, and as expected, agreed, letting Mrs. Bai make the decision on everything.
Mrs. Bai knew that her niece was repaying her kindness, and her son was also satisfied with his future wife. Fortunately, she had sent her son away in advance, otherwise, given his temper, he would definitely not agree. But Mrs. Bai had no other choice. The more she inquired in the past two days, the more she knew that the four people in Baiyun Martial Arts School were perverse and cruel. They were basically crazy and could do anything.
Now the Bai family is facing a crisis. After encountering setbacks everywhere, Mrs. Bai has been racking her brains for a solution. She thinks that since the four of them are young and energetic, maybe she can use this foster niece to get through this difficult time.
"Woman?" The boss first looked at Mrs. Bai in surprise, then his face darkened, and he could no longer suppress his murderous intent. Admittedly, this woman was indeed outstanding in appearance, but this was definitely not what they needed at the moment. What they wanted was training resources to increase their strength as soon as possible.
To put it another way, there are four of them and only one woman, how should they divide the money?
"Wait, eldest brother." The third brother suddenly spoke.
The eldest brother frowned and turned to look at the third brother.
"Don't you think this woman is very similar to Master?" The third brother asked. He was referring to temperament.
The eldest, second, and fourth brother were all stunned when they heard this. Looking at the woman carefully, they had to admit that she was indeed a little special.
After they revealed their murderous intentions, Madam Bai, the servants in the Bai Mansion, and several old servants of the Bai family who were at the first level of Yuan Realm, all had solemn expressions, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Only the girl had a calm expression, neither happy nor sad. Even though the maids around her looked nervous, she seemed to be out of the matter.
"What you mean is..." The eldest brother looked at the third brother.
The third brother hesitated for a moment and nodded. "The four of us spend most of our time out there trying to get training resources. Master is alone in the martial arts gym, so he must be lonely. If there's someone around, that would be good, right?!" He felt that the woman's temperament made him feel that she matched his master inexplicably.
He was now far behind the other three in terms of strength, and the only way he could maintain his position in the martial arts school was to please the master in every possible way. Even if the master didn't like her, at most he could just buy a servant. For the sake of his own future, he was willing to take a gamble.
Unlike the other three, he could see the evil thoughts hidden in the master's heart. Although the master's cultivation method made the three brothers miserable, who made them have no talent for cultivation? In his opinion, there was no other way to deal with this method of cultivation.
"Are you sure?" the boss asked again.
"I don't want my share for future hunts and missions until I pay back the 100 spirit stones." The third brother gritted his teeth and said.
The eldest, the second and the fourth looked at each other, and seemed to have realized the third brother's intention.
"Okay, since you insist, then let's do this!" The boss curled his lips.
Sending a woman to the master, the third brother is really bold! However, what will be the master's reaction after learning about this? It really makes them look forward to it!
