Wei, Chen, Bai, Wang, and Dai, these five families were originally one of the controls of White Jade City, and they were also the most powerful vassal forces under the command of the Spirit Sword Sect, and they were famous in White Jade City.

However, after the desert and his party, the five families weakened, coupled with the suppression of the Spirit Sword Gate, in addition to the Wei family, the power of the four families in Baiyu City was removed, and without the Lingguang Ancestor in charge, the four families became a mouthful of fat in the mouths of many forces.

The principals of the four families may not have this sense of crisis, but they are not bold enough, the means are not enough, but they are not able to turn the tide, there are many clansmen of the four families, and the manpower below Daogang has not lost much, but there is no Lingguang Ancestor to support it, it is not enough to rely on the Purple Mansion Monks, even the Daogang Ancestor cannot support this situation.

But their expenses have not decreased in the slightest, and the clansmen's monthly income does not dare to cut at all, if it is less, the already stormy family will collapse immediately, and even increase a lot of expenditures, such as gifts.

The principals of the four families continued to give gifts to some high-level leaders of the Spirit Sword Gate, wanting to find one or two backers to shelter, but unfortunately they completely miscalculated, and they didn't even find the right direction, and it was the high-level leaders of the Spirit Sword Gate who weakened them.

With the sitting of the ancestors of each family, the residual power of the family continued to decrease, and those forces that were eyeing each other began to continuously encroach on the interests that originally belonged to the four families.

Among them, the Dai family and the Wang family were the worst, because their ancestors died directly in the desert, and even the elite monks with the family were also wiped out, and the time has exceeded a hundred years.

When the Spirit Sword Gate deprived them of their power in Baiyucheng, it would be even weaker, and in the past few years, the Dai family and the Wang family had fewer and fewer monks in the law enforcement department of Baiyucheng, without the protection of these people, and there was no one to support the two shops.

It's okay in Baiyu City, after all, there are city rules and regulations, and the territory outside the city is even worse, the two disciples are constantly attacked, and they can't hold those territories at all, and the operating costs are constantly rising, and every time Lingshan has a harvest, a large number of people need to be sent to guard and transport.

In the end, the two had to shrink their forces and sell the Lingshan in the distance, but the sale was also very unsmooth, no one dared to buy from outside forces, even if someone wanted to buy, someone would greet them and threaten them not to buy, and those who could buy were united to lower the price, and they could only sell it at a very low price.

With the shrinking forces, the external environment of the two families is slightly better, and there are enough manpower to protect the only territory, and in the sphere of influence of the Spirit Sword Gate, those families can't attack blatantly, so the situation is temporarily stabilized.

The two families have existed for thousands of years, and the various relationships are intricate, and the interests involved are even more obscure, and it takes a lot of effort to straighten them out, and it is even more difficult for them to cultivate a spiritual monk.

After the Wang family and the Dai family shrank their power, it was the turn of the Chen family and the Bai family, but the two families were not willing to admit defeat, and those territories were not willing to let go easily, so a new confrontation appeared.

·········

"Eight months ago, a spiritual mountain under the name of the Bai family was attacked, and the spiritual mountain was not breached, but six disciples were killed and seven were injured."

"Then half a month later, a batch of fourth-order elixirs on a spiritual mountain of the Bai family matured, was stolen, and lost one-third of the elixir, the Daogang of the Bai family was furious, and disposed of three clansmen of the Bai family sitting in Lingshan, a side branch of the Bai family announced its separation from the Bai family, and thirty-seven Bai family monks left with three thousand mortals."

"At the same time, a descendant monk of the Chen family was framed and lost 1.3 million Xuanjing in the casino, and the monk's parents and brothers broke the family and compensated"

"Six months ago, a twelve-layer monk of the Chen family's Purple Mansion failed to break through Daogang and died, and found traces of confusion in the elixir in his storage bag, which was suspected of being manipulated."

"Five and a half months ago, a foreign daughter of the Bai family committed suicide, it is said that the husband and wife are not compatible, according to verification, there is another hidden secret, the truth is..."

"Four months ago, Bai Jinzhi, the sister-in-law of the Bai family, was divorced, and the other party was from Bai Yucheng..."

In a year, the Chen family and the Bai family were besieged by many forces, one thing after another, either there was an accident in the mine, or Lingshan was attacked, and even some in-laws and families broke away one after another, this attack was an all-round attack.

The two principals were exhausted, and these things made them exhausted, and the prestige and Xuanjing lost were even more innumerable, as if they were working against them all day.

In the Baicheng Tower, Lin Xiao sat opposite Bai Zihua with an ugly face, and the night owl put the news in front of him, and Bai Zihua looked at the messages one by one.

"Master, I'm done"

"What do you want to say?"

"Wind and rain, all eyes are enemies, and the Bai family can't be protected"

"It's not so fast, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, just look at the Dai family and the Wang family, it's just that the two brothers, Bai Changqing and Bai Changming, are too big and refuse to let go, so the loss is so huge"

"Master, what can I do?"

"No, just look at it, if it goes on like this, it won't take three years, the Bai family will be forced to give up those spiritual mountains on the periphery, shrink their forces, and then sort out the internal affairs like the Dai family, but the internal affairs of the two brothers, Bai Changming and Bai Changqing, are not very clever, no accident, in about ten years, the Bai family will collapse, and that is when you really make a move."

"Master, but at that time, the Bai family had been almost defeated, and it was useless for me to take it."

"Yes, don't worry, what you have to do now is to make the business bigger and increase your influence in Baiyu City, didn't you support a lot of Bai family disciples more than a hundred years ago, contact them, and support a group of people again, when the time comes, the Bai family under your control will have to use these people."

"Yes, Master"

"Okay, you go down, I still have something to say to Qingxuan"

Lin Xiao waved his hand, and then Bai Zi painted it, leaving Zhang Qingxuan.

"The head seems to be a little worried about Bai Zi's painting"

"That's right, the benevolence of the woman painted by Bai Zi broke out, he sympathized with the Bai family too much, did he forget how we were driven out of Baiyu City back then, if we were slower, would there still be life, we didn't take the initiative to persecute the Bai family, we were already benevolent and righteous."

"I understand, master, what Bai Zihua does, I will do it on the Chen family, if Bai Zihua dares to betray the interests of the sect, then I will extract his bottom"

"Well, everyone is the same family, if you don't have to, don't do it, and if Bai Zihua's identity of the Bai family can really control the Bai family, it is much more suitable than the Chen family."

"Head, it's difficult for Bai Zihua to be a big responsibility, why don't you transfer someone else"

"It's tuned, Bai Zichen is already on the way"

Lin Xiao nodded, originally Bai Zihua was the most suitable, but he didn't expect that he would be so sympathetic to the Bai family, which made Lin Xiao a little disappointed, so Lin Xiao asked Bai Zichen to come over again to assist Bai Zihua in handling the matter.

"The Leader's Name"

"Don't pat yourself on the back, how many Lingshan of the Dai family have you taken"

"Two seats"

"Do you know what Ye Nanyu is doing in the sect?"

"I know, Boss Ye has set up an inspection team to investigate the funding of the night owls."

Zhang Qingxuan said silently, Lin Xiao never cares about the internal affairs of the night lord, all the night lords are in charge of themselves, but Ye Nanyu feels that the efficiency of these Chinese New Year's Eve lords is decreasing, and he knows with his toes that there are people who are night lords who are beginning to be lazy and even corrupt, so Ye Nanyu organized an inspection team, with him personally as the team leader, and several Daogang cultivators to assist, to clear the accounts.

"It's good to know, the Night Stalker is a powerful force now, and there is a lack of supervision, it is inevitable that some people will get up and down, I hope you will not make this mistake"

"Don't worry, I will never make such a mistake, I promise, Baiyucheng Station is innocent"

"I don't have to ask about your affairs, Ye Nanyu just came to ask, before he comes, you'd better check it yourself, now that Baiyucheng is too important to the sect, I don't want problems here"

Lin Xiao shook his head and said, he is completely decentralizing power to the night owl, but on Bai Yucheng's side, he is very demanding, Lin Xiao has only been here for two years, and he has already purchased a lot of third- and fourth-order spiritual objects for the sect, and even the treasures that have improved the spiritual veins in the past have been sent back, and Qiyun Mountain has also become a fourth-order spiritual vein.

Half a month later, Bai Zichen came to Baiyu City, and Lin Xiao told Bai Zichen about the painting before and after, including the grievance more than a hundred years ago, which shocked Bai Zichen, because he didn't know these things.

"Master, the Bai family of the Heavenly Saint Sect and the Bai family of Baiyucheng are not the same thing at all, Zihua made a mistake this time, please forgive him"

"I don't mean to blame him, there is still a kindness in my heart, which is also a good thing, but as a disciple of the sect, you must put the interests of the sect first, now you are fast to the twelfth layer, there are at least thirty years before you break through the aura, these thirty years, you will stay in Baiyu City, assist Bai Zihua, do you have the confidence to do things well?"

"Yes, don't worry, if Bai Zihua still dares to be obsessed, then I will personally tie him up and return to the Heavenly Holy Sect, and I will deal with the matter here."

"Okay, I'll rest assured with your words, I'll be in Baiyu City for about a year or two, and when I leave, it's up to you."

"Yes, Master"

Bai Zichen shouted, he knew very well that if he broke through the aura without Lin Xiao's support, there was almost zero probability, and to get Lin Xiao's support, the first thing was to be loyal to the sect, and the second thing was to be able to do things, these two requirements were not difficult things for Bai Zichen, but Bai Zihua did a bad job this time, and gave him a chance in vain.

Lin Xiao nodded, he couldn't stay in Baiyu City for long, the next stop, he had to go to Hundred Battles City, Zhou Zhengzhe's revenge should be avenged, and the sect also needed a few more warships.
