Chapter 195: Deterioration
Under Bai Shuoting's order, the true qi of nearly ten innate martial artists soared sharply, and the sword light and sword shadow flashed out, which suddenly caused a great restrain to Mu Quan.
Mu Quan was bent on taking Bai Xihong's life, and always paid attention to the latter, but he was helpless because he was besieged by many enemies and could not break through.
Bai Shuoting glared at Mu Quan with anger, just now Mu Quan seriously injured Bai Xihong with one palm, even if the other party was really from the Tianchi Sect, he would never be afraid of it.
"Kill me, kill him for me!" Bai Shuoting hissed again.
I saw that at this time, the fight between the Bai family attendants and Mu Quan had moved from the living room to the front yard.
The strength of those attendants is not too high, and on the whole, most of them are only around the early stage of innateness.
However, when they joined forces to besiege Qimuquan, they still formed an impenetrable formation. Although Mu Quan has the ability to kill any one of the opponents, at the same time, he will also put all his attention on one person, so that other people will have a chance to take advantage of it.
Therefore, Mu Quan finally decided to use the most prudent and cautious way of playing, first using the Tianchi Xuanhuo Palm as a defense, so that the enemy did not dare to approach easily, and in addition to deterring the enemy, he was also looking for an opportunity to break through.
However, just when the two sides were inseparable for a while, behind Mu Quan, a member of the Bai family quietly took out a bow and crossbow and shot towards Mu Quan.
Their Bai family is a well-known weapons merchant in the Central Plains, although these weapons they produce are not peerless weapons, but their quality and lethality are always not to be underestimated.
He only heard the sound of breaking wind, Mu Quan suddenly felt a sense of crisis coming from behind him, he immediately turned around, and at the same time, the strong true qi yuan force burst out, and as soon as his long sleeves were raised, he knocked down the rapid crossbow arrow.
However, although he successfully blocked this killing move, he also completely exposed his back in front of the enemy.
Seeing this, those martial artists of the Bai family were willing to let go of this opportunity? They all shouted violently, and immediately swung their swords, and at the same time slashed towards Mu Quan's body.
Mu Quan realized that the other party was attacking again, and was about to turn around and fight back, but before he could get ready, someone had already stabbed him in the arm with a sword.
A muffled snort of pain came out, but Mu Quan didn't retreat, but gritted his teeth, and flew directly towards the martial artist who stabbed him, and slapped out a fierce palm with all his might, the martial artist wanted to raise his sword to block, but as soon as he raised his hand, the exerted power of the Tianchi Xuanhuo palm had already blasted over.
I only heard a bang, and the iron sword broke apart, and the warrior's body fell to the ground under the impact of this palm.
However, Mu Quan tried his best to directly solve the other party, but he himself was also unable to retreat.
Several sword lights and sword shadows came to him, and Mu Quan wanted to dodge, but several sword qi mixed with the power of the true yuan did not give him the slightest chance.
Only a few brushes were heard, and Mu Quan's white robe was instantly shattered, dyed a tragic bright red.
He couldn't stop taking a few steps backwards, but those attendants of the Bai family were getting braver and braver, they knew that Mu Quan had already suffered a lot of injuries, as long as they didn't give him a chance to breathe, they would definitely take him down.
Then, another round of siege began, but this time, the situation between the two sides was not as stalemate as before, but Mu Quan had already fallen behind at the beginning.
In a few rounds, Mu Quan had already added several more injuries, blood continued to gush out from each wound, and his movements became more and more slow.
With another muffled sound, Mu Quan's chest seemed to be pierced by a long sword. His body froze, and he didn't resist any more.
Under the joint siege of the Bai family's attendants, this powerful Tianchi faction master was finally killed.
Bai Shuoting looked at Mu Quan's embarrassed and miserable corpse, but the anger in his heart was not completely eliminated because of this.
Because, at this time, Bai Xihong had already fallen into a coma under Mu Quan's palm, his face was as pale as a piece of paper, and his life and death were uncertain.
He instructed his subordinates to send Bai Xihong into the room, and gave Bai Xihong the best healing pills he had collected.
When he saw Bai Xihong gradually recovering a trace of blood, Bai Shuoting's tense mood relaxed a little.
However, his brows were always furrowed, Bai Shuoting understood that although the death of the second son of the Qian family had nothing to do with their Bai family, this black cauldron was forcibly thrown over, and they couldn't take it if they didn't want to.
Moreover, now Mu Quan, who came to seek revenge for Qian Yaozu's death, has been killed under Bai Shuoting's instructions, which is tantamount to further worsening the contradictions between the two of them.
In fact, what Bai Shuoting was worried about was not the Qian family's attitude towards the Bai family. After all, no matter how powerful the Qian family is in the city, it is just a business family that buys and sells jewelry.
What Bai Shuoting was really afraid of was the Tianchi faction that had been supporting the Qian family behind their backs.
In this martial arts respected rivers and lakes, only with real hard power can you have your own foothold.
The reason why the three families of Lu, Qian, and Bai were able to become the three major families in Ning'an City was that in addition to having a relatively large business territory, there was another very important reason, that is, because they knew how to use their own advantages to bring together the famous factions in the Seven Great Sword Sects, and let these famous factions support them behind their backs.
Otherwise, no matter how big your business is, it will always be difficult to maintain your position. Even if you are suppressed a little, then the career you have worked hard to run is likely to suffer a lot of damage.
The Tianchi faction behind the Qian family, this is what Bai Shuoting is most worried about.
Today, their Bai family killed all the Mu Quan of the Tianchi faction, which can be regarded as a complete grudge against the Tianchi faction.
In addition, Bai Shuoting also heard that Qian Yaozong, the eldest son of the Qian family, was an inner disciple of the Tianchi faction, and was even cultivated by the Tianchi faction as a successor.
If Qian Yaozu's death is also counted by the Tianchi faction as the head of their Bai family, I am afraid that relying on Qian Yaozong's affection, the Tianchi faction will also not sit idly by.
With these two layers of reasons, Bai Shuoting realized that today, their Bai family was afraid that they would not be able to avoid the terrible anger of the Tianchi faction!
If their Bai family wanted to escape this catastrophe, the only way at present was to seek the help of the "Lanyun Gate", which was also one of the Seven Great Sword Sects, behind them.
Thinking of this, Bai Shuoting immediately called one of his closest cronies over and said, "You immediately go find the best fast horse, rush to Lanyunmen for several days, and report to the head of Lanyunmen in my name." ”
Bai Shuoting thought for a while, and then said, "You just say, our Bai family ...... It's difficult!"
...............
Meanwhile.
In the Lu Mansion.
What happened to the Qian and Bai families has long been known all over the city now, and in this matter, although the Lu family, who is outside the matter, seems to have nothing to do with this matter, as long as they pay a little attention, they can already see that from the current form between the three major families in Ning'an City, the role of the Lu family is actually a very influential existence.
It can be said that in the matter of the Qian and Bai families, as long as the Lu family's position is slightly biased towards one of them, or against one of them, it will instantly form a one-sided situation, and the targeted party will be completely overwhelmed.
The original three-legged situation will also be broken.
At this time, Lu Dingkun, the head of the Lu Mansion, was sitting in the same hall with the head of the family, Lu Dingtian, and analyzed the current situation for Lu Dingtian in detail, and then he said: "The head of the family, our three major families have been fighting openly and secretly in Ning'an City for so long, I think that now is the best time for us to break this situation."
With the power we have now, as long as we put some pressure on these two families, I guarantee that their status will immediately be lowered, from the original three major families to only us. ”
"What do you mean by that, can you make it clear to me?" Lu Dingtian squinted and asked lightly.
"I mean, we should put some pressure on the Qian and Bai families at this time. Ask them to give us a portion of their inheritance.
If they agree, our Lu family will not be involved in the affairs of the two of them, but if they refuse our request, then we will stand on the opposite side and completely suppress them to the point that they can't turn over!
I believe that with the personalities of Qian Yongrong and Bai Shuoting, they will definitely agree to our request.
In this way, we are equivalent to empty gloves white wolves, and we have a piece of the pie in their hands......"
Seeing Lu Dingkun's expression excited, his head was analyzing his inner plan in a straightforward manner, but Lu Dingtian shook his head and said, "Ah Kun, although your suggestion is very reasonable, I don't agree with your approach. ”
"Head of the house...... Why?" asked Lu Dingkun puzzled.
"First, our Lu family has always been a businessman who does business, not those forces in the rivers and lakes who fight for power and profit all day long, I don't want the Lu family to be involved in those bad things.
Second, the Qian and Bai families have now formed a situation in which they are in flames, and a fierce battle between these two families is probably going to start sooner or later. If we take advantage of the fire to rob again at this time and force them to divide the benefits to us, even if we are really dominant in Ning'an City, I am afraid that the reputation of the Lu family will still be greatly discounted.
With these two reasons alone, do you think I'll agree with you?"
