Chapter 387: This is the Bai Family
Her tears flowed down her eyes, she should have guessed it a long time ago, and she knew all too well what kind of person her husband was.
Fear and despair threw her out of control, and she pushed the others away and threw herself at her husband, hysterically fighting.
But soon she lost all her strength, and sat in front of him and choked up: "You really disappointed me too much, if Brother Ashu is here, he will definitely not let Cong'er have an accident......"
Bai He's eyes were red, but he didn't refute a word, his eyes flashed, as if he had thought of something, and his eyes showed ecstasy, but then he didn't make any moves, but cast his gaze at Bai Dong as if he didn't care.
Bai Dong's attention was already on this side, and when he saw him, he suddenly showed a thoughtful look, and then whispered something in his brother's ear.
Bai Dong's face soon showed a look of schadenfreude, he rolled his eyes, cleared his throat, and said to the five sect elders: "Fifth uncle, there is far more than one such child in our Bai family, in addition to Bai Cong, there is actually someone who meets your requirements." β
Everyone was stunned, but Bai Su was the first to react, her expression changed, she looked in a certain direction, and soon she lowered her head again.
Soon the others understood what he meant.
"That's right, the evil seed left by the traitor was born on the same year, month, and day as Bai Cong, of course, it also meets the conditions, since you have to choose one, why not choose him? This is what his parents owe to our Bai family!"
For a while, the echoes came and went, especially the people of the Phoenix Sect, and their eyes all showed a little joy: "Father's debt repayment is justified, the five sect elders, let's choose him!"
Someone with good deeds pushed away the crowd and ran towards the Ming Greedy Wolf Division, and soon he picked up a child and squeezed in again.
"Where are you going to take my brother?!" Bai Qing and Bai Che hurriedly chased after them, but they were blocked by the crowd, and of course the others would not take the two children in their eyes and ignore them completely.
And the man had already put the child in the open space, and said respectfully to Bai Liang: "The situation is urgent, please ask the five sect elders to cast spells here." β
Bai Liang was silent on his face, but a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, he didn't know what he thought of in the end, and finally made up his mind and walked slowly towards that side.
Everyone present held their breath, and whether the Bai family could survive this catastrophe was a matter of action, but at this critical moment, a figure suddenly burst out of the crowd, grabbed the child and retreated outside.
The others reacted, how could they make her wishful, and hurriedly went to stop her.
"Bai Yan, you are so bold!" Seeing the appearance of the person who came clearly, Bai Dong sneered, "Your brother and sister-in-law have caused such a disaster to the Bai family, do you want to continue to be stupid regardless of everyone's life or death?!"
"You really don't distinguish between right and wrong, even if my brother makes a mistake, what does it matter to this child?"
Bai Yan was unmoved, and swept his gaze mockingly over everyone one by one, "Don't make excuses for your hypocrisy, what kind of father and son repay debts, aren't you ashamed to put the sins of adults on a child who is only three years old?"
She chuckled, and finally put her eyes on Bai Tianliang: "In the end, you are just reluctant to give up the spirit vein of the Bai family, is it really so terrible to have the reverse flow of the undead? As long as the Hongmeng spirit vein is offset with it, it will be completely powerful, why bother to come here!"
She glanced coldly at the others: "You also know that things can be re-accumulated when they are gone, and homes can be rebuilt when they are gone, but if people are gone, there really will be no more."
Cultivators should be people-oriented, and everything else is outside the body, don't you think it's ridiculous to put the cart before the horse? What's more, you don't want to think about it, if they can sacrifice Bai Xiu today, they can sacrifice any of you tomorrow, who is the one who doesn't care about everyone's life or death?"
In the face of her sharp gaze, many people lowered their heads, and even slowly retreated a few steps, giving her a way to pass.
Bai Yan was secretly overjoyed, and retreated out quietly, Bai Dong discovered her intentions, and rushed towards Bai Yan in person without waiting to explain his brother.
Bai Yan didn't care about anything else, she flew out with the child in her arms, seeing that she was about to break out of the encirclement and escape, she didn't want a familiar wave of spiritual power to attack her in an instant, and she was swept up by that spiritual power, she stumbled a few steps and almost fell to the ground.
But she didn't notice anything, just looked back at Bai Xiu in disbelief.
"I'm sorry, you can't take him away. β
In order to prevent others from paying attention to herself, Bai Xiu retreated into the crowd without a trace, and when he stopped her, Bai Dong had already caught up, and hurriedly subdued her before Bai Yan could react.
He snatched the child from her arms, and motioned for several Qinglong Sect disciples to pull her back, and walked back to several sect elders by himself, he quietly hid the smug look in his eyes, put the child back in place, and then looked at many of his fellow clansmen.
"My Bai family disciple has never been the one who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and I know the truth that there are eggs under the nest, even if it is me, although I am the leader of the Qinglong Sect, if it really comes to the moment when I need to dedicate my life, I will never hesitate for a moment!"
"Well said!"
The Blue Dragon Sect team suddenly erupted in warm applause, and even the other sects also had a lot of echoes, Bai Dong understood his brother's thoughts very well, and turned his head to Bai Liang and said: "The power of the undead countercurrent will collide at any time, and the five sect elders are invited to cast spells immediately." β
"Please ask the five elders to cast spells!"
Everyone followed suit one by one, and the shouts were deafening, making Bai Yan's heart sink little by little, and her eyes were still stubbornly searching the crowd until she saw the familiar figure, and remorse finally surged up little by little.
She suddenly felt ridiculous, after all, it was she who did it herself, the other party was just a stranger with whom she only had a one-sided relationship, but she poured all her trust into him, and finally harmed her own relatives.
Indeed, at the moment when Bai Shu promised Xie Qingyuan to leave together, or when he promised Xie Qingyuan to stay just now, she also hated this child to the core, if she knew that the people of the Six Sects would choose to sacrifice him later, she was afraid that she would also applaud him.
But she just met that person, and he made her clearly realize that her love for Bai Shu was nothing more than the admiration left over from her childhood, but she joked a lot on weekdays, and she took it seriously.
If there is no love, there is naturally no hate, then Bai Xiuyu is just her brother's child, and she naturally wants to protect him.
However, that person destroyed Bai Xiu's last hope with his own hands, and also stifled the feelings that had quietly grown in her heart, making it inadvertently become a thorn in her heart, she was a person who couldn't rub sand in her eyes, so she had to eliminate it.
She tried to calm herself, but when all the voices subsided, only the words echoed in her ears: "Don't be afraid, the sky is falling and I am here, there will always be a way." β
She quietly raised her head and did not let the tears fall, which was a sign of weakness.
Two powerful forces stuck together in the air, forming a huge vortex of clouds, but she knew that soon everything would settle.
Bai Xiu didn't know what she was thinking, and watching the black mist-like power of the undead quietly pour into the child's eyes, his heart was unprecedentedly calm.
He may have resented the people in front of him and didn't want to think back to that experience, but he knew now that it was all his own decision.
He didn't want to see Hongmeng Town razed to the ground, he didn't want to see the Bai family displaced, and he didn't want the Seal of Chaos to reappear in front of the world because of the destruction of Hongmeng's spiritual veins, which would lead to more bloodshed.
He is powerless to change anything, but he can at least bear such a reality.
The dark clouds gradually dissipated, and the flawless bright moon once again sprinkled her brilliance on this land, listening to the people's cheers of victory, all this seemed to have something to do with him, and it seemed to have nothing to do with him, Bai Xiu couldn't help but smile, and slowly walked towards the outside of Hongmeng Town.
He did not cross the river, but walked in the opposite direction, and walked slowly along the path up the mountain, and gradually the strange sound like fairy music came from far and near, and soon the huge figure slowly came into his eyes.
Bai Xiu climbed up, sat on the boulder and looked at the familiar line of heaven and couldn't help but feel a little distracted.
Touching the scene, he remembered Fang Xin, they met here that day, if it was really possible, he didn't want her to meet him, he really owed her too much, he never protected her, and never kept the promise of loving each other for a lifetime.
And such a regret is also unfair to Xiang Yunsheng, she deserves to be treated wholeheartedly to her by a person, and he can't give her anything.
He found that he was indeed selfish, and the sincere and enthusiastic Xiang Yunsheng was like the only life-saving straw in his ups and downs in life, knowing that he would drag her into the water in the end, he still grabbed her.
He secretly made up his mind that if he could go back, he would have to make a complete break for this relationship.
He thought wildly, and he didn't know how long it was, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and its owner seemed to be firm, and then hesitantly walked over step by step.
Bai Xiu looked back, Bai Yan was also looking up at him, her eyes surging with a light that he couldn't see through, but he knew why she came, so he smiled at her: "Come up." β
Bai Yan lowered her head and didn't speak, she climbed the boulder in silence, sat beside him and watched Xianyoujian, just when Bai Xiu thought she was going to continue without saying a word, she suddenly spoke: "Who are you?"
She turned her head, and there was no hatred in her eyes that Bai Xiu expected, but a little more speculation: "Originally, I thought you were in a group with them, but at that moment I felt that you were not, and I could see that you love this place very much, Hongmeng Town may be your home." β
"No, it's not just me. Bai Xiu smiled, "The people here regard it as their home, although they always fight, they all have a common home, when the crisis comes, they will stand together, help each other and tide over the difficulties together." β
"You don't deny the latter words, so I guessed right, aren't you? Bai Yan still looked at him intently, waiting for his answer.
