Qin Song, who was already seriously injured, was locked by the thunder and had no way to escape.
Without any suspense, he was struck by the rolling thunder.
In an instant, Qin Song's body was scorched black in many places.
A head of hair that was originally pretty was all singed and stood on end.
His whole body stood as still as a tree stump, already struck stiff by the violent force of thunder, and it took several seconds before he fell to the ground on his back.
Black smoke was still coming out of his mouth.
And this is the result of Bai Yan controlling the power of the sky thunder, otherwise Qin Song would be like that water dragon and disappear without a trace under the sky thunder.
At this time, all the big shots present had stood up from their seats.
No one paid attention to Qin Song's life and death. They looked at Bai Yan with shock in their eyes.
"Nine Thunder Zhengtian Jue! This is the Nine Thunder Zhengtian Jue of Xizhao Peak!" Someone murmured to himself.
"And it has been cultivated to the level of four thunders!"
"The setting sun is just like the setting sun on the peak."
"..."
The way all the top family heads look at Bai Yan has changed.
If there was only hostility before, now it is like facing a formidable enemy.
The families of these people have deep connections with the other four peaks of the Lingxi Sect, and they know very well how terrifying the Nine Thunder Zhengtian Jue, the martial arts inherited from Xizhao Peak, is.
It can be seen that Dao Xieyang can support Xizhao Peak alone with the strength of his four thunders.
The most frightening thing is that Bai Yan has already reached the level of a sword in the setting sun less than ten days after he went to Xizhao Peak.
If he is given another year and a half, how strong should he be?
No one dared to imagine it.
The murderous intention in the eyes of Su Zhenxiong and several other family heads has become more and more obvious.
The Nine Thunder Zhengtian Jue is originally the strongest among the Wufeng secret arts. Previously, it was the most difficult, which became a balance point.
But now, with Bai Yan's performance, there is no doubt that he can fully comprehend the Nine Thunders Zhengtian Jue.
By that time, as long as Bai Yan is alone, Xizhao Peak will dominate the other four peaks, and the balance among the five peaks of Lingxi Sect will be broken.
This is something the family heads never want to see.
And Bai Yan already had issues with them.
This is a natural contradiction. These old guys have enough reasons to get rid of Bai Yan.
Bai Yan could naturally feel the murderous intent on their bodies and became vigilant.
Although this is a county governor's mansion, what if these old guys go crazy and take action against him?
The cultivation levels of these old guys are all at least the first level of Lingtai.
If he really wanted to deal with him, he would have no choice but to run away.
However, he also believes that he has fully demonstrated his value.
No matter what purpose Zhou Tai had, it was time to come forward at this time.
"Great! It's so exciting! He is truly a genius who comes once in a thousand years!"
Sure enough, Zhou Tai came over at this time and stood directly beside him.
"This kind of style reminds me of the exciting years of the past, and my whole person seems to be much younger."
While Zhou Tai praised Bai Yan, he warned Su Zhenxiong and others with his eyes.
The meaning is obvious, Bai Yan, he wants to protect him!
At this time, the murderous intent in Su Zhenxiong and others gradually dissipated, and they gave up their plan to take action.
This is the Sheriff's Mansion, and they also noticed several powerful auras looming in the darkness.
I'm afraid I won't get any favors if I take action forcefully.
And I'm afraid that County Governor Zhou Tai is eager for them to take action, so that he can take the opportunity to weaken these top aristocratic families.
The unlucky Qin Song had already been carried off. Bai Yan was about to return to his seat when he was stopped by Zhou Tai.
"Yanbai, wait a minute."
Bai Yan looked at Zhou Tai with some understanding in his heart. He knew that Zhou Tai was going to reveal his final intention.
The next moment, Zhou Tai's face showed a hint of sadness.
Just listen to him saying to everyone: "I believe you all know what happened a few days ago.
My useless son Zhou Yuan died in the hands of the bandit king Meng who was active in Daqing Mountain."
Zhou Tai suddenly mentioned this, which made everyone a little confused.
Shouldn't this be the biggest scar in his heart? Why did he open it on his own?
Everyone looked at Zhou Tai curiously and heard him say again: "Although I have wiped out all the bandits in Dongling County, my son Zhou Yuan will never come back.
But I also know that one cannot wallow in grief, and as the governor of Dongling County, I have a heavy responsibility, and someone must inherit everything I have."
Having said this, Zhou Tai's eyes suddenly turned to Bai Yan beside him.
Bai Yan's expression moved slightly, feeling that something big had happened.
But Zhou Tai said again: "Yan Bai and I hit it off right away, so I plan to adopt Yan Bai as my adopted son!
I wonder if you would like to inherit everything from me in the future?"
Hearing this, Bai Yan was greatly shocked, and everyone else was stunned.
I never expected that Zhou Tai would make such a decision.
Su Zhenxiong and other top family heads seemed to have a storm in their hearts.
Each of these old guys is cunning and cunning, and they can see through the phenomenon and see the essence in an instant.
Knowing that Zhou Tai's move was killing two birds with one stone.
By accepting Bai Yan, he not only got an adopted son with a bright future, but he also naturally infiltrated into the Lingxi Sect.
Invulnerable, no one can say anything, no one can stop it.
The eyes of Su Yingxia and some of the younger members of the Jing family were full of resentment and jealousy.
If he becomes Zhou Tai's adopted son, then he will undoubtedly be the second Zhou Yuan, who can walk around Dongling County.
It will be difficult for their family to deal with Bai Yan again.
"this...."
There is a big shot who wants to say something, but has nothing to say. No one can control the matter.
"Yanbai, are you willing to be my adopted son?" Zhou Tai asked again.
In the eyes of everyone, as long as Bai Yan is not stupid, this is something that is impossible to refuse.
But only Bai Yan knew that this was absolutely impossible.
As for the reasons, there are two.
First, in his heart, no one can compare with Bai Lin, so it is naturally impossible for him to find a brother for Bai Lin.
Secondly, he was the real murderer of Zhou Yuan, killing someone else to steal someone else's father? Even if he didn't consider the first point, Bai Yan would never accept it. He and Zhou Tai might face each other life and death in the future.
However, Bai Yan's situation was too difficult at this time.
Zhou Tai said it in front of so many people. It would undoubtedly be quite embarrassing if Bai Yan rejected him directly.
It would be quite unwise to offend the Sheriff in the Sheriff's Mansion.
If Zhou Tai wants to deal with him, unless Yan Xi helps, he may not even be able to escape.
The lady has already said that he has to walk his own path, so he also wants to solve the problem on his own and will not use her power unless absolutely necessary.
And if you want not to offend Zhou Tai, but also refuse to be his adopted son, this is really a headache.
And he didn't have much time to think about it.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Bai Yan, just waiting for him to tell the answer that didn't need to be considered at all.
"What? Does this matter still need to be considered?" Zhou Taixiao asked at this time.
"Please forgive me, Lord Sheriff!" Bai Yan glanced at him and said, "Yan Bai cannot agree to be your adopted son."
The smile on Zhou Tai's face slowly solidified.
Seemingly not hearing clearly, Bai Yan was given another chance to reorganize his words: "What did you say?"
"Yan Bai cannot be your adopted son." Bai Yan said again.
