"Haha, in that case, Bai Ye, I'll leave the important task of taking down Xiao Yan to you. You can't fail!"
Bai Ying solemnly looked at Bai Ye. His expression was extremely serious.
Hearing this, Bai Ye's heart could not help but tighten. Even his expression changed slightly. He had never thought that his family's family head would agree to Sun Shuo's decision.
From Bai Ye's understanding of Bai Ying, his family's family head was not the kind of person who was willing to take a loss. After all, this was the Sun family's territory. If the Sun family went back on their word, the Bai family would not be able to explain themselves.
At the same time, Sun Shuo, who was behind Bai Ying, looked at Bai Ying, who had his back to him, and a trace of suspicion appeared on his face.
Bai Ying had fought with his Sun family for many years. Sun Shuo understood the latter's temperament very well. The person in front of him was not someone who was willing to suffer a loss. Once he set his eyes on a prey, even if he could not kill it, he would not be satisfied until he tore off a piece of flesh.
However, Bai Ying had actually said such words in front of him. This made him feel suspicious.
At the same time, Bai Ye, who was standing in front of Bai Ying, was about to speak with a hesitant expression. However, Bai Ying spoke again with a grave expression.
"Bai Ye, only you can take on this matter. This matter concerns the face of our Bai family. Do you want to refuse? If you refuse, this Sun guy will gain prestige. Won't he laugh at our Bai family for having no one? "
After Bai Ying spoke, Bai Ye lowered his head with a solemn expression. He could only helplessly nod at Bai Ying. After all, this was the family head's decision. He had no right to change it, nor did he have the right to refute it.
Seeing this, Bai Ying nodded with a smile. However, Bai Ye, who had lowered his head, did not notice that at this moment, there was a flash of light in the depths of Bai Ying's eyes.
"But Patriarch, this is the Sun Family's territory. He has the advantage of numbers. If Sun Shuo sends more people, wouldn't we be at a disadvantage as well?"
After a moment of hesitation, Bai Ye raised his head. At the same time, the expression on Bai Ying's face quickly returned to normal. He smiled slightly and said to Bai Ye in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Young Master Bai,
"Oh Bai Ye, while what you said is correct, do you think that since it's something that you can think of, I can't think of it?"
Hearing this, Bai Ye came back to his senses. At the same time, the expression on his face quickly changed. He quickly bowed and apologized to Bai Ying, saying, "Please forgive me.
"This subordinate is slow-witted. I have absolutely no intention of belittling the patriarch!"
"Haha, it's fine. I know you're doing this for the good of the clan, so …"
Before he could finish speaking, Bai Ying suddenly turned around and looked at Sun Shuo. His eyes narrowed as he spoke to Sun Shuo in a serious tone.
He narrowed his eyes and said, "However, Patriarch Sun, I think that before that, there is something that needs to be explained to you."
Sun Shuo raised his eyebrows. He knew what Bai Ying wanted to say, but he pretended not to know. He chuckled and asked with a look of knowing the answer,
He laughed and said, "Hehe, I wonder if Patriarch Bai has any questions?"
"Hmph, only Bai Ye and I are here in my Bai Family. If I don't do anything, he will be the only one. Therefore, if your Sun Family sends people, it is reasonable …"
"You can't blame me for not having anyone in your Bai Family. This is my Sun Family. As long as I want to, I can send as many people as I want. If Patriarch Bai has the ability, I will not stop you."
Before Bai Ying could finish speaking, Sun Shuo coldly snorted and interrupted him with a sneer.
"You …"
Immediately, fury surged onto Bai Ying's face. His originally amiable expression suddenly became somewhat distorted and ferocious at this moment. His hands, which had extended out of his sleeves, trembled violently. His eyes were practically spitting flames of fury.
Upon seeing this, Sun Shuo coldly chuckled. The corners of his mouth lifted, revealing a cold smile. After which, he suddenly waved his large hand. His sleeves fluttered, emitting a fluttering sound. A formless wind also swept across the courtyard.
"Everyone in my Sun Family, listen up! From now on, all Nine Star Half Emperors are to go to the Four Directions Pavilion and capture that rank three alchemist, Xiao Yan! Whoever can capture him, I'll reward him with a Tier 3 medicinal pill... no, two! "
Sun Shuo's loud shout rang out. Instantly, the entire Cold Stream City seemed to have been struck by lightning. Sun Shuo's words exploded in the ears of everyone in the city.
In the blink of an eye, the hearts of everyone in the city were deeply shaken by Sun Shuo's words.
From Sun Shuo's words, it was clear that Xiao Yan, who was listed as the most wanted person by the Four Great Sects, was actually in their Cold Stream City. Furthermore, it seemed like Xiao Yan was currently in the Four Directions Pavilion in the city.
Immediately, greed rose in the hearts of all the Half-martial Emperors in the city.
They were also extremely interested in the reward offered by the four large sects. It was just that they were helpless in being unable to find Xiao Yan. Since he had already appeared in this place, how could everyone in the city easily miss this opportunity to capture him?
In the blink of an eye, not only did the Sun Family's Nine Star Half Emperors move, the experts from all over the city also moved upon hearing the news. At this moment, Xiao Yan was in the Four Directions Pavilion. This was something that Sun Shuo had personally said. It could not be false.
Within a short span of a few breaths, the enormous Cold Stream City had swiftly descended into chaos because of the words that had come out of Sun Shuo's mouth.
Of course, it could also be said to be chaotic. However, it could also be said to be orderly. Everyone in the city had the same goal, and they were all gathering in the same direction in the city.
If this scene were to be seen from high up in the sky, it could be described as grand.
Countless experts surged out the Dou Qi within their bodies. Numerous Dou Qi light pillars shot straight to the nine heavens. Immediately, everyone's bodies moved. One after another, they flickered, leaving behind numerous brilliant afterimages in the sky.
Tens of thousands of people did the same thing as they swiftly gathered at the same spot in the city. If one were to look at this scene from high up in the sky, it would appear as though countless fireflies were being sucked in by something. As they crazily surged in, the light at the very centre gradually became brighter and brighter.
At the same time, Sun Huo, who was originally standing respectfully in front of Xiao Yan in the four pavilions, had shock written all over his face at this moment.
When Sun Shuo's words were transmitted from his mouth, the original thoughts in Sun Huo's heart were shattered like a cluster of fog. Disbelief filled his heart. No matter what, he would never have imagined that the rank three alchemist in front of him, who could bring him to a higher position, was actually Xiao Yan, whom the four great sects wanted to join hands to eliminate!
"You … you are … how … how is this possible!"
Sun Huo's face was filled with shock as he looked at Xiao Yan in front of him. His eyes swiftly turned crimson. His skinny body trembled intensely at this moment. His finger slowly pointed at Xiao Yan.
The reward that Sun Shuo gave might be tempting to an ordinary person, but Sun Huo was completely unmoved. If the person in front of him was not Xiao Yan, the tier three medicinal pill that he would be able to obtain would be far more than what Sun Shuo had promised.
However …
Now, everything had turned into bubbles.
Xiao Yan parted his mouth and smiled. His smile contained ridicule and disdain.
"Yes, the person that your clan head is referring to is me, Xiao Yan."
