Chapter 11: White Emperor City (3)
At night, the lights of the White Emperor City are swaying, and hundreds of schools are singing, although the number of people is very small, but it is also very lively to gather together.
There doesn't seem to be a moon in this world, Bai Nian looked up, the sky was slightly cool, as if the moonlight was pouring out, but he couldn't see the moon. He sat on the dome of the palace where he lived, listening quietly to a young man in a night suit next to him.
The young man introduced himself as Bai Jie, the son of the head of the family, his face was like a knife, his black hair was scattered and scattered, and his demeanor was mature with a domineering and arrogant temperament, like a prodigal son walking the rivers and lakes. Bai Jie was not present when the Bai family summoned him, so Bai Nian didn't recognize him.
Bai Nianben was practicing in the room, and suddenly a man in nightclothes came in through the window and startled him, and then the man in nightclothes asked him to go to the dome and say that he had something to discuss.
"You're the waykeeper! Bai Jie sat next to him.
"You came to me for something?" Bai Nian was puzzled.
"Haha, just come over and see the roadkeeper and make you a friend. Bai Jie smiled, very heroic.
"Okay, we're already friends, let's get down to business!" Of course, Bai Nian didn't believe that he sneaked over quietly just to make him a friend.
"I'll go, you're so straightforward. Bai Jie patted his clothes awkwardly, smoothed out the wrinkles on the black clothes, and said, "Actually, I came to you to cooperate with you." ”
"Cooperation?"
"You say you're a waykeeper in danger, so do you know the mission of a roadkeeper?"
"The mission of the road keeper? What is that?" Bai Nian was very puzzled in his heart, from the moment the village was destroyed, he seemed to be caught in a whirlpool.
"We don't know what the mission of the road keeper is, only that the people in the White Emperor City want to go to the outside world to be related to the road keeper. ”
"What the hell is going on in White Emperor City?"
"A lot of things are out of the Bai family's considerations, and I can't tell you either. Bai Jie shook his head and said, "When you are strong enough, you will naturally know many secrets. ”
"Then can you tell me about the Bai family?" Bai Nian lowered his head and thought deeply, this White Emperor City was extremely mysterious, and many things were too hidden.
"I'm here to tell you about the Bai family's arrangements for you, although there are no Bai family ancestors, but you are also the Bai family's guardian, and the Bai family will definitely use resources to make you stronger. ”
"But don't be too complacent, legend has it that in the past, the road keeper was banished from the White Emperor City because he angered the White Emperor, so he guarded the passage to the outside world for generations. The Bai family has always been divided into two factions, one is the stubborn faction led by the head of the family, and the head of the family advocates abiding by the will of the ancestors to defend the White Emperor City. The other faction is the radical faction led by the Second Elder, who have always wanted to leave White Emperor City and go to the outside world. There are often fights between the two factions, and Bai Yin, who brought you yesterday, is the grandson of the second elder, and they have been trying to get the messenger of the waykeeper to leave here, and you have lost the charm. Bai Jie said this, glanced at Bai Nian deeply, and continued: "It's okay now, none of us can do without White Emperor City, only wait until the day when fate comes." ”
"Destiny has come?" Bai Nian asked.
"I don't know about this matter, it's just a legend, and it's hard to tell whether it's true or not. I am the son of the head of the Bai family, and I came to you to ask you to help me. Bai Yin and I will fight for the position of the head of the family in the future, he is much more talented than me, but this person thinks very highly of himself, is moody, and is a good woman. Bai Jie looked at Bai Nian's expression as he spoke, wanting to see something.
"Who is that woman next to you, she doesn't seem to be from the Bai family. ”
"How do you know?" Bai Nian was shocked.
"Hey, you don't know it when you first arrive! There is a special spiritual power in this White Emperor City, and this spiritual power will feel the people of the Bai family's bloodline and automatically gather around you. If she wasn't from the Bai family, then Bai Yin would definitely attack her. ”
"He wouldn't be so blatant!"
"Heh, you still don't know who the woman next to you is!" Bai Jie smiled, with a slight sarcasm.
"What?" Bai Nian was puzzled.
"She is a spirit of heaven and earth. Bai Jie glanced at Bai Nian, knowing that Bai Nian still didn't understand, he said disdainfully: "Heaven and earth spirits, the heart gives birth to nine orifices, synesthesia heaven and earth, the upper convergence of heaven and yin, and the lower gathering of earth and yang, which is the physique of yin and yang." People with this kind of physique seem to be the darlings of the heavens, and their affinity for spiritual power has reached a terrifying level, and they can break through to the transcendent realm without any cultivation resources. ”
"But at the same time, there is also a drawback, after all, the gender of people is only single, the woman is the yin, the man is the yang, the woman of the heaven and the earth spirit body is extremely yin, if the man has a good time with it, he can absorb his yin qi to make his physique achieve a balance of yin and yang. Those who have a balance of yin and yang will have a higher affinity for the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and the people of Bai Yin's faction will definitely use all means to get the woman next to you. ”
Bai Nian frowned deeply, it turned out that Lin Qingyue was so extraordinary, maybe the people who chased and killed her before also had the reason for the Heaven and Earth Spirit Body. He couldn't talk about how deep his feelings were for Lin Qingyue, he had only known each other for a few days, but since he had brought her into White Emperor City, he would definitely not let her be in danger.
"You can also see that I'm just a beginner in martial arts, why did you come to me to cooperate?"
"Don't underestimate the identity of the road keeper, in the past it was more prestigious than the head of the house. Hundreds of years ago, the Bai family competed for the position of the head of the family, and in the past, even if there was a dispute, they would not use force, but that time they fought for the real fire. The two sides fought each other, setting off a storm in the White Emperor City. Later, the winner was decided, and the strong on the losing side was killed, and later the roadkeeper took the initiative to open the passage between the two places and save the old and weak women and children of that line. Therefore, those people and the road keepers are called banishes, and the road keepers can be said to be like fire and water with the current White Emperor City, so the Bai family will not be too friendly to you, but they will not give up on you, maybe you have a secret to the outside world. ”
"The current Great Elder is the leader of the faction in that riot, and the current head of the family is the one he raised. ”
Bai Nian thought about it carefully, the one sitting in the first place at that time should be the Great Elder, the middle-aged man in the first place was the head of the family, and the old woman should be the Second Elder.
"With your identity as a road keeper, the Bai family will definitely give you resources to cultivate, and when you step into the Hall of Elders, the dispute between me and Bai Yin's family master may still need your help. ”
After finishing speaking, Bai Jie sorted out his night clothes, turned over, and walked out of the palace. He didn't wait for a reply, but Bai Nian's heart was already shaken at the moment, this Bai Jie had already explained to him that the Bai family's powerful relationship had already been explained to him, and if it was an ordinary person, he would definitely stand on his side. Bai Nian's mind was not active, he didn't want to get involved in the power struggle of the Bai family, he just wanted to gain a foothold in this strange place.
