Chapter 142: Condolence

The guests who came to mourn arrived one after another, the Bai family was mourning, the entire Rock City was mourning, Jin Yunmei came, Zhou Jiqing came, Wen Qizhi came, and all the officials of the temple came.

Only Lord Shengzun did not come, and he did not even issue another oracle for Bai Hongyi's death.

Welcoming too many guests, Bai Yinan was already numb at this time, like an out-of-body soul, and the voices in his ears seemed extremely distant, melodious, as if coming from the sky, hazy, and clearly audible.

The last one to come was the opponent of the Bai family, the family of Cheng Xiaoxi.

Bai Hongyi passed away, and the old family master felt a lot, it seems that there are not a few people left in their generation now, except for those who rely on the spiritual objects of heaven and earth to continue their lives frantically, only a few people who have reached the realm of cultivation are still suffering in the world, such as him, such as Qin Zhongtian, such as Zhou Jiqing, such as Wen Qizhi, and like that Jin Yunmei.

If you put aside the grievances between the two families, Bai Hongyi can indeed be regarded as a close friend of the old family owner, when he was young, he worshiped the Wuling Monastery together, practiced diligently on the Wuling Mountain and encouraged each other, and when the temple was tested, the two joined the temple together, and then out of position, the two gradually drifted apart.

Power can indeed drive human nature, not human nature.

"Who is not the poor man. ”

While shaking his head, he stepped into the gate of the Bai family, and three people came to the trip, one was the head of the family, the second was the third son Cheng Xiuwen, and the third was his daughter-in-law Qin Rou.

After walking a few steps, the old master of the Cheng family suddenly turned around and said to Bai Yinan: "Your father's life is worth it." ”

Bai Yinan understood what the old master of Cheng meant, he arched his hand, and said respectfully: "Yi Nan must be cautious in his words and deeds, and put the family first in everything!"

The old master Cheng's eyes were slightly dim, as if he thought of something bad in the past, he sighed, then flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked slowly towards the Fuzhong Spiritual Hall.

Since the Holy Venerable Lord has given a holy edict, no one will be surprised by the appearance of the Cheng family, and the head of the Cheng family will take his son and daughter-in-law into the mourning hall step by step, and no matter who sees him along the way, he can only greet him with a smile, and he will also get out of the way.

The major family forces in Rock City are now acting in a low-key manner, on the one hand, because the Holy Venerable has an edict, and on the other hand, because the current situation in the Central Plains is too delicate, and this subtlety is not clear to even the powerful people who are high up in the sky.

They are not comparable to the Cheng family, the Cheng family was in charge of the world's military power, and the southern and northern armies were led by the Cheng family, if you want to talk about power, the Cheng family was bigger than the current Jin family, above the palace, as long as the old family master spoke, who would dare to contradict?

Although they have some power, they ask themselves, can they compare to the beginning of the family?

Since it can't be compared, it is natural to be low-key, and in front of the declining Cheng family, they really don't have the slightest arrogance, don't they see the two behind the old head of the Cheng family?

Who are they?

They are not the sons and daughters-in-law of the old family owner, but the parents of the plague god who is now in the limelight and famous in Shenzhou.

If you can't afford to provoke it, you have to admit it, and the family can decline, of course they can, because Cheng Xiaoxi has that ability, and he also has the courage to not be afraid of heaven and earth.

A few days ago, the destruction of the Spirit Mountain of the Northern Netherworld Sect has not passed, and his Northern Land is a ready-made example, which is placed there, and there is no doubt about it.

For the sake of Princess Xiling alone, Cheng Xiaoxi was able to dismantle from the foot of Lingshan Mountain to the top of the mountain in front of Zheng Qishan, the sect leader of the Northern Hell Sect, and in the end, he didn't even let go of the proud hall of the Northern Hell Sect.

The three members of the family traveled smoothly like this, but in the end they were blocked by Jin Yunmei, the head of the Jin family.

The Jin family can be said to be the sworn enemy of the family, the earth-shattering changes in the family were led by Jin Yunmei, but at this time, Jin Yunmei stood up, seeing this scene, the rest of the people hurriedly took a few steps back, for fear that blood would splash on themselves.

Of course they didn't fight, the old head of the Cheng family smiled, Jin Yunmei was also extremely enthusiastic, and the two rivals greeted each other like this for a while, and finally Jin Yunmei took the initiative to stand next to him and made way for the three of them.

Feeling the strange eyes around her, Jin Yunmei's fat face turned black, and she was also a person with a big identity in the field, even he Jin Yunmei didn't want to provoke rashly, otherwise he would have to reprimand loudly to see who dared to talk about him behind his back.

He looked around, and then smiled coldly, but thought in his heart: "Jin Mou's brain is still enough, will he be stupid enough to provoke the family? Even the Holy Venerable has admitted it, who else in the world will not want to die?"

In the black coffin, Bai Hongyi was lying in it with a peaceful face, which he had expected, so he looked peaceful, he looked peaceful, because he had no regrets.

The old master of the Cheng family deceived the past, he put his hands flat on the coffin, his two old eyes were cloudy, and his mouth was also reading in a low voice: "Old man Bai, after fighting for most of your life, you are still walking in front of the old man after all, look at you like this, do you feel that you have no regrets in this life?"

He sniffled and continued: "But the old man thinks you should regret it, the Bai family has come to this point, have you ever had a day of stability?"

Bai Hongyi passed away suddenly, and the head of the old family felt endless emotion in his heart, maybe thinking of the situation of becoming a family now, maybe thinking of his own sorrow, maybe just sighing for the deceased.

Cheng Xiuwen pulled his father, and the old head of the Cheng family stopped his emotions, he turned around and looked at the people around him one by one, no one dared to look at him, even that Jin Yunmei lowered her head and was silent.

The white cloth is fluttering, the gongs and drums are melancholy, the wind is continuous, and the rain is cool.

......

Bai Hongyi was finally buried in the Holy City, and all the affairs of the Bai family were handled by the new head of the family, Bai Yinan, unlike other families competing for power and profit, in the face of Bai Yinan's upper position, the Bai family did not have a single voice of opposition from top to bottom, and since then, there has been one more person who has led the Central Plains.

He, Bai Yinan, has reached a height that the world can only look up to, because his current identity is the current head of the Bai family, one of the five major families in Rock City, and he doesn't need to bow his head even if he sees Jin Yunmei.

But even if Bai Yinan has changed his status, his identity has not changed, he is still Jin Huixiang's nominal husband, and he is also Jin Yunmei's nominal son-in-law, the Bai family and the Jin family have been closely linked together as Bai Hongyi expected before his death.

Everything is just for the prosperity of the family, in order not to be eliminated by this era of depletion of spiritual power.

With Bai Yinan's ascension, Jin Huixiang's status is also rising, coupled with her identity as the daughter of the Jin family, who dares not to take her in the eyes of the entire Rock City, even if she is not very elegant, but she is still surrounded by flatterers.

But she is not happy, this happiness is what she looks forward to, and she will not be able to get it in this life.

Because Bai Yinan didn't love her, not only did she not love her, but she even said that she was so indifferent when she looked at her.

She is just a tool for the marriage of the two families.

In the past, Jin Yunmei would come forward to administer justice for her daughter, but now with Bai Yinan's breakthrough in cultivation, even he, a father, ignores his daughter's affairs, I am afraid that as long as Bai Yinan does not take Jin Huixiang off, even if he accepts a few more concubines, he Jin Yunmei will not take it to heart.

As the son and daughter of a big family, he should have taken on the responsibility of the prosperity of the family, Bai Yinan has to endure it, and Jin Huixiang also has to endure it.

Born in a big family, with a starting point that others can't reach, and also has to shoulder responsibilities that others can't bear, Bai Yinan woke up beside Cheng Xiaoxi, but Jin Huixiang didn't have this awareness.

She is the princess of the Jin family, she has been pampered since she was a child, and she deserves to be cared for in every way, and the rest of the Bai family does obey her, but this is not what she wants at all, she only needs Bai Yinan's favor, that's all.

Since she married into Baifu, Bai Yinan has not even eaten at the same table with her, let alone slept together, and there are only a handful of times when the two meet, Bai Yinan seems to be deliberately avoiding her.

I don't know when, Jin Huixiang suddenly heard such a rumor, the son of the Bai family has already had a sweetheart, and that person happens to be in the rock.

So, on the third day of Bai Hongyi's death, Jin Huixiang, the wife of the head of the Bai family, hurriedly went out with two maids and went straight to the city.
