The middle-aged man who slammed the table had a pair of azure blue eyes that were very magnificent and strange.
This was a manifestation of the Bai Clan's Ice Soul Divine Eyes that had been cultivated to the great success stage. In the entire Drifting Snow City of the Bai Clan, there were only a few who had such a cultivation base. This man was the current City Lord of the Drifting Snow City and also the Clan Leader of the Bai Clan, "Flaming Sun Frost" Bai Hantian.
At this time, the martial artist who was complaining to him was from some of the martial arts forces in the north. Under the instigation of Miao Chunmao, the forces under the Morgue Village Alliance had invaded their territory and resources.
The martial arts forces in the north were actually not too weak. It was just that the entire north was too sparsely populated. Therefore, the number of martial arts forces in the area was also very small. Moreover, the distance between the forces was too large. The closer they were to the periphery, the weaker they were.
The Drifting Snow City of the Far North did not have a subordinate relationship with these sects. However, the entire north was the territory of the Drifting Snow City of the Far North. If it was a dispute between some small forces, it would be fine. However, this group of people came in the name of the morgue village. Wasn't this a provocation to the Drifting Snow City of the Far North?
However, the Drifting Snow City of the Far North and the morgue village were both major forces in the Northern Yan Land. Once a war broke out, the consequences would be unimaginable. Therefore, it was better for Bai Hantian to be cautious.
He comforted the people from the small forces, "Everyone, don't worry. The north is the sphere of influence of the Drifting Snow City of the Far North. The morgue village has broken the rules here. I will naturally seek an explanation from them and give everyone justice."
Hearing Bai Hantian's words, the people present could only nod and leave.
At this time, the door of the inner hall was pushed open. Bai Qinhu and Bai Wuji, the martial artists of the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm of the Bai Clan, walked in together.
Bai Wuji had not stepped into the martial arts world for a long time. However, at this time, he had already reached the Five Qis Origin Realm. Moreover, the arrogance from before had completely disappeared. His expression actually became a lot calmer.
In the past, during the Divine Weapon Convention, Bai Wuji was severely injured by Shen Bai of the Azure Water Sword Sect. That sword not only injured Bai Wuji's body, but also his state of mind.
However, it was a blessing in disguise. Without that sword, Bai Wuji would have looked down on all the geniuses in the world.
From then on, Bai Wuji began to work hard in closed-door seclusion. He no longer interacted with those scoundrel friends of his. Other than seclusion in the Northern Driftsnow City, he would go to the Northern Wastelands to cultivate, tempering his body and will. This was why his cultivation base had advanced by leaps and bounds, and he had even broken through the Three Flowers as well as the Five Qis Collecting in Origin Realm.
"Father, what do those people from those powers want to do? Are you here to take advantage of me again? "
Bai Wuji didn't have a good impression of the major powers in the Northern Lands. In the past, these powers would often use the excuse of coming to the Northern Driftsnow City to pay tribute to them, but in reality, these treasures had no value at all.
As one of the major sects in the Northern Lands, the Driftsnow City naturally couldn't just accept the gifts and not return the gifts. Hence, it was always the Driftsnow City that was on the losing end.
With regards to this point, the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North didn't express anything. In any case, they were a big city and didn't care about such minor things. They only needed the absolute respect of these sects and powers.
However, Bai Wuji's character was somewhat domineering. In his opinion, the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North was powerful, so why should they be nice to those powers? If they were not convinced, they could just beat them until they were convinced.
Bai Hantian shook his head with a gloomy face and said, "It has nothing to do with them. It's the morgue."
As he spoke, Bai Hantian told the story to Bai Qinhu and Bai Wuji.
Hearing this, Bai Wuji said coldly, "The morgue has been developing well these years. It seems that they are also very arrogant. How dare they try to wrestle with the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North!"
Although Bai Qinhu seemed to be impulsive and reckless, he was much calmer than Bai Wuji.
Hearing this, Bai Qinhu said in a deep voice, "Master, this matter needs to be treated with caution. After all, it was only the forces of the morgue alliance that took action, but the morgue did not do it themselves. Nie Renlong is shrewd and cunning. They are still pursuing the people of Qilian Village. It doesn't seem like Nie Renlong would provoke the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North at this time. "
Bai Wuji snorted coldly and said, "Whether it was Nie Renlong's idea or not, it was done by the people of the morgue. If it wasn't for the morgue supporting them, would these small forces dare to provoke the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North?"
Bai Hantian didn't reply. He just pondered with a gloomy face.
At this moment, a servant suddenly came to report that someone wanted to see Bai Hantian.
Bai Hantian frowned and said, "Who is that?"
The servant hesitated for a moment and said, "That person claims to be from the Yinmo Clan, and his strength is not weak."
Of course, Bai Hantian, the City Lord of the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North, was not someone who could meet just anyone. If Chu Xiu wanted to meet Bai Hantian, under the premise that he could not use his own identity, the identity of the Yinmo Clan was the most useful.
Bai Hantian frowned and said, "The Yinmo Clan!"
As the Clan Master of the Driftsnow City of the Driftsnow City, Bai Hantian naturally knew the difference between the Yinmo Clan and the Bright Demon Clan. But because of this, he was surprised that the Yinmo Clan would look for him.
In fact, the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North was different from the Great Light Temple, which viewed the Demon Clan as their mortal enemy. They could not be considered as a pure righteous clan.
For the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North, when dealing with a force, they would not first care whether the force was righteous or demonic. They would first see if the force had the strength to bring benefits to the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North.
Bai Hantian knew that the majority of the Yinmo Clan members were extreme lunatics. He did not want to deal with the Yinmo Clan.
But now that they had taken the initiative to come to him, if he still refused to meet them, he would really offend them.
"Bring him in," Bai Hantian said in a deep voice.
After a while, Chu Xiu followed the people of the Bai Clan into the main hall. He cupped his hands towards Bai Hantian and said, "Greetings, City Lord Bai."
Bai Hantian's eyes shone with a brilliant blue light as he suddenly looked at Chu Xiu.
But at the same time, Chu Xiu's Mental Demon Rotation Technique was displayed to the extreme. Combined with the power of the Soul Shifting Technique of Extinguishing Heaven and Extinguishing Earth, his powerful mental strength turned into a deep whirlpool, directly strangling the power of Bai Hantian's Ice Soul Divine Eyes.
The cultivation methods of the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North were very strange. Their cultivation methods mainly focused on close combat, and their martial arts were violent and ferocious.
But who would have imagined that the Bai Clan's secret cultivation technique would actually contain a Spiritual Secret Technique like the Icesoul Divine Eyes? This also caused many people to suspect that the Icesoul Divine Eyes wasn't a cultivation technique of the Bai Clan at all, and they had obtained it from somewhere else.
As there was only one Mental Secret Technique, the Bai Clan of the Drifting Snow City in the far north would naturally not treat it as their main cultivation technique. Therefore, when it came to the strength of Mental Energy, although Bai Hantian was a Martial Dao Grandmaster, he was still no match for the current Chu Xiu.
Retracting his mental strength, Chu Xiu laughed in a hoarse voice and said, "The Ice Soul Divine Eyes really lives up to its name. But I'm still a guest. City Lord Bai, are you using the Ice Soul Divine Eyes to entertain your guests?"
Bai Hantian said coldly, "Although the Driftsnow City of the Extreme North is hospitable, guests must also abide by the rules. Wearing a mask, disguising your aura, and coming in secretly is not the way of a guest!"
Chu Xiu cupped his hands in obeisance and said, "City Lord Bai, please forgive me. It's just that my identity is sensitive and I don't want to expose it. If I were to remove my mask today, there would be no point in talking between us."
Bai Hantian snorted coldly but did not say anything else.
People of Bai Hantian's status were well aware of the affairs of the Yinmo Clan.
He also knew that there were many members of the Yinmo Clan lying in ambush in the Jianghu. During the day, these people might be heroes of the righteous path or disciples of the major sects, but at night, they would become remnants of the Diabolism.
Many people in the Jianghu knew about these matters, but not many people would investigate wantonly because it was not worth it.
The members of the Yinmo Clan were too well-hidden. Even if they were to investigate wantonly, they might not be able to find them.
If this group of people wanted to hide, then let them. After all, it would be difficult to achieve anything with their little tricks in the dark. As long as the Diabolism did not produce another Dugu Weiwei, then this group of rats in the dark would not be able to stir up any waves.
There was only one Dugu Weiwei in the Jianghu for thousands of years. How could there be another one so easily? The tides of the world were rising and falling. Now was not the time for this group of people from the Diabolism to show their faces.
Therefore, Bai Hantian only snorted coldly and did not force Chu Xiu to reveal his true face. He asked coldly, "The Yinmo Clan and I mind our own business. Why are you looking for me?"
Chu Xiu cupped his hands and said, "To tell you the truth, I am not actually representing the Yinmo Clan. I am here on behalf of the Qilian Stockade."
There was a strange look in Bai Hantian's eyes as he said, "Qilian Stockade? The Qilian Stockade is actually colluding with the Yinmo Clan? If this is the case, you should leave as soon as possible. My Northern Fluttering Snow City has a grudge with the Qilian Stockade. Moreover, the Qilian Stockade is about to be strangled by the Morgue Village. What else is there to talk about? "
In the past, the Northern Yan Imperial Court had united with the Northern Yan martial arts world to kill the Northern Thirty-Six Bandits. Among them, the Northern Fluttering Snow City had contributed the most. Who asked the Northern Fluttering Snow City to be located in the Northern Lands?
Therefore, strictly speaking, the Northern Fluttering Snow City and the Qilian Stockade also had a grudge.
Chu Xiu said lightly, "The grudge is already in the past. Even the Qilian Stockade is no longer in their hearts. What are you so conflicted about, Governor Bai? And this time, I am not only here for the Qilian Stockade. The Morgue Village is currently in the limelight. As far as I know, they are not only satisfied with occupying Liaodong County and destroying the Qilian Stockade. I am afraid that even the Northern Lands is their target! "
Bai Hantian squinted at Chu Xiu and said, "It seems that there are some things that you are aware of. That is why you are so eager to sow discord?
However, there is no point in trying to sow discord. The ones who took action were the forces under the Morgue Village Alliance, not the Morgue Village itself.
We are all from the Northern Yan sects. Why would the Northern Fluttering Snow City fight to the death with the Morgue Village over such a small matter? As long as the Morgue Village gives an explanation, this matter will be considered over.
You are trying to sow discord between the Northern Fluttering Snow City and the Morgue Village. Do you think I am an idiot? "
