"Who are you? Why are you here in this bamboo house? Where have the old master and the little girl gone?"
The middle-aged man couldn't figure out Xu Luo's details for a while, but under Xu Luo's indifferent eyes, he felt an inexplicable sense of danger in his heart.
On the surface, it seemed that this young man had no aura of a cultivator, but the more he looked like this, the less he dared to act rashly.
"Who are you? Why are you here late at night?"
Xu Luo finally looked at him.
As soon as the first word came out of his mouth, a jet of black water appeared quietly behind the middle-aged man like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark.
Although Xu Luo had already made some vague guesses when he saw the middle-aged man's face, it was better to be fully prepared just in case.
What's more, his health has just begun to improve, and only the Yushi Xuanming Changhe consumes the least amount of energy.
Seeing that Xu Luo refused to answer honestly, the anger on the middle-aged man's face flashed away, and he wiped his hands on his waist, and a double-pronged sword with a cold light hovered around him like a swimming fish.
"Young man, do you know how terrifying it is to anger a cultivator... Huh?"
Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, he saw that the two-pronged sword that he used to be so handy in the past suddenly froze in mid-air, with a jet of black water tightly wrapped around the sword like a noose.
The middle-aged man's subconscious spiritual energy surged toward the long sword, and the double-pronged sword suddenly glowed with light.
But a scene that horrified him appeared. The water flow just circled the sword.
Chiliu, a long trail of sparks followed by countless debris slowly falling down.
The double-pronged sword let out a shrill shudder and turned into a white stream of light that flew around, but no matter how it changed and struggled, the dark water was still wrapped around the sword.
Seeing this fantastic scene, the middle-aged man swallowed his saliva and felt more and more that Xu Luo, who had a calm face, was unfathomable.
He touched his palm from his belt and took out a jade tablet similar to the Yin Sha Monument and raised it.
"I don't care who you are, but if you want to act recklessly in Po Kongkai, please think twice. I am Bai Zhile, the deacon of Qingchuanfang in Xuanwu City. If you dare to hurt me, you will be in trouble with the entire Qingchuanfang!"
Xu Luo originally didn't want to do anything to him. Otherwise, if the pair of forked swords were entangled by the Xuanming River, would they still be so vigorous?
But when Xu Luo heard about Xuanwu City, Xu Luo, who was having a headache how to sneak in, suddenly saw a sharp look in his eyes.
What is this, someone will give you a pillow if you want to sleep?
But when he immediately thought of the name that the middle-aged man had just announced, he could only sigh secretly and suppress the murderous intention in his heart.
But it was still a little too late. All I saw was a white stream of light in the sky, and the double-pronged sword quietly scattered into debris on the ground.
Sensing the murderous intention in Xu Luo's heart, Xuanming Changhe jumped up from the debris and stabbed the middle-aged man's throat almost teleportingly.
Even Xu Luo himself was startled by the speed of Xuanming Changhe, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to call.
Buzz, the jet-black water hit the middle-aged man's throat like a poisonous snake bite, but immediately, under Xu Luo's call, it slipped back onto his fingertips.
The double-pronged sword collapsed with one blow, and blood immediately spilled from the corner of the middle-aged man's mouth.
But it wasn't until Xuanming Changhe turned back into a ring that he realized what he was doing and reached out to touch his throat.
Looking at the traces of blood on his fingertips reminded him of the danger at that moment. If Xu Luo hadn't changed his mind in time, he might have been dead in two places.
Big drops of cold sweat dripped from the middle-aged man's forehead. He didn't even bother to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at Xu Luo, who was still calm and calm, as if he had seen a ghost.
"you you……"
Bai Zhile?
Hearing him announcing his family status, Xu Luo still didn't understand that the middle-aged man had a very close relationship with Mr. Bai. He was about to laugh and want to explain a few words.
At this moment, a crisp and sweet call sounded in their ears.
Bai Xiaoya's thin figure wrapped in a Zhang cloak suddenly appeared on the tide-watching platform. Her face was full of surprise as she looked at Bai Zhile, her little hands trembled and she gestured.
"Dad, why did you sneak back at night again?".
But immediately the little girl saw the blood on the corner of his mouth, and immediately screamed in panic. At this moment, she couldn't even bother with sign language, and anxiously rushed to Bai Zhile's side, took out her handkerchief, and wiped it carefully.
Xu Luo smiled bitterly in his heart, they are really a family together!
He coughed a few times and was about to apologize, but unexpectedly, Bai Zhile looked at him thoughtfully and rushed to speak.
"Don't worry, girl. It's not a big deal. Don't wake your grandpa up. He will have to suffer a lot."
Bai Xiaoya looked at Master Bai's room with some fear, and made silent gestures with her fingers.
"Dad, did you get into trouble outside again this time?"
Bai Zhile glared at her subconsciously, and patted her down out of habit.
But when he saw the undisguised joy on the little girl's face, he was reluctant to hit her, and his palms turned into loving caresses.
"Is dad so unbearable in your heart? Can't he come back just to see you?"
Bai Xiaoya looked particularly naughty at this moment, and rolled her eyes at him when she heard this. At this moment, she showed the unique innocence of a charming and naive girl.
Suspicion flashed across Xu Luo's eyes, and he looked at Bai Zhile for a moment, but finally did not ask any questions.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that Bai Zhile had something weird all over him, but now that the father and daughter were reunited after a long absence, he really didn't want to spoil the scene.
While the father and daughter were whispering, Xu Luo suddenly raised his head and looked into the room, and then a strange smile appeared on his face.
A moment later, a thin figure wearing a coat also appeared on the tide viewing platform. It was Mr. Bai who was awakened.
However, the old man's face was obviously extremely ugly at this moment, and Bai Xiaoya still snuggled into her father's arms obliviously, laughing excitedly from time to time.
But Bai Zhile is still in the body-washing state. Even if there is some water, his spiritual consciousness is extremely sharp.
As soon as he caught sight of the old man's figure from the corner of his eye, his smile immediately froze on his face, and he was like a little chicken being strangled by the neck, unable to utter a single word.
Seeing his fearful expression like a mouse seeing a cat, Xu Luo was secretly amused, and simply sat back on the edge of the tide-watching platform again, as if he didn't want to get involved in other people's affairs.
Master Bai's eyebrows widened in anger, and he subconsciously wanted to yell angrily, but then he remembered that Xu Luo was still there, so his anger turned into a cold snort, and he turned around and walked towards the house.
Bai Zhile still stood there blankly, but Bai Xiaoya took his big hand knowingly and followed Master Bai into the house.
As soon as people entered the room, Master Bai's suppressed roars and curses could be faintly heard.
Xu Luo simply focused most of his attention on the magical powers that had just been restored in his body. He opened his mouth and took out the bag of strange fish that he had swallowed.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Bai Zhile had taken out the two-pronged sword weapon from his belt. Could it be that the belt was similar to a storage bag?
Xu Luo was about to hang the strange fish bag on his waist, but after thinking about it, he stuffed the pouch into his arms first.
This thing was brought from the Jueling Realm. Who knows if Bai Zhile can detect something fishy?
This man is obviously an old man with a fierce appearance and a soft heart, who can act according to the circumstances, but he is not that easy to fool.
Just as Xu Luo was thinking, Master Bai's extremely angry roar suddenly came out without any cover.
"Get lost! You bastard."
There was no concealment in this roar. It was obvious that Master Bai was extremely angry.
Xu Luo frowned slightly, then turned cold. He owed Master Bai's kindness, but who was Bai Zhile?
If he dares to offend Mr. Bai, Xu Luo will not care about his status and will definitely make him suffer.
"Father..."
"roll!"
Bai Zhile seemed to want to explain something, but the furious Master Bai didn't even want to listen, and opened the door directly to push him out.
Bai Zhile was so cultivated that he just pressed his palm on the door frame. Even though Master Bai was panting from exhaustion, he did not move at all.
Bai Xiaoya's face was full of tears and she held onto Master Bai's arm, sobbing and shaking her head.
Seeing this scene, a cold light flashed in Xu Luo's eyes, and the dark ring on his finger suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, Bai Zhile's palm pressing on the door quickly retracted as if he had been stung.
Before he could react, the jet-black water that had just crushed his double-pronged sword quickly extended its arms like a spiritual snake.
"Shuttered tortoise shell, duh!"
Bai Zhile roared subconsciously, and the hazy white light instantly formed a light curtain all over his body. Miraculously, this light curtain resembled the armor on the back of a turtle, forming a hexagonal rhombus shape.
But it wasn't over yet, the seemingly inconspicuous white shirt on his body also shone brightly and hit the dark water.
But the next moment, Bai Zhile's face showed a look of fear, panic, and even a hint of despair.
I saw that the black water flow was still lightly twisted, and the louver armor and protective robes were quietly broken apart like tofu dregs, revealing his strong and thick arms.
Just a little bit of the aftermath caused dense wounds to spread all over his arms in an instant.
Bai Zhile let out a loud scream and reached out his hand to touch his chest without hesitation.
At this moment, Master Bai and his wife, who had been stunned by this horrific scene for a long time, seemed to be awakened by Bai Zhile's screams.
Bai Xiaoya reacted almost instantly. With a pop, she knelt down towards Xu Luo who was slowly approaching, waving her little hands a few times before kowtowing to him.
Seeing Bai Zhile's miserable appearance, Master Bai's expression of shock quickly turned into unbearable expression, and he subconsciously begged Xu Luo.
"Xiao Luo, you..."
Knowing that the two of them had misunderstood, Xu Luo immediately couldn't laugh or cry.
Fortunately, he didn't want to do anything to Bai Zhile at first, he just wanted to teach her a lesson.
After all, this is someone else's housework, and he doesn't know the reason. If he goes too far, he might not be a human being inside and outside!
Xu Luo waved his hand towards Master Bai, indicating not to worry.
He first took Xuanming Changhe back, and then quickly helped Bai Xiaoya up and whispered comfort in her ear.
"It's okay, it's just a bit of skin damage. Please help your father back to the room and bandage it."
Bai Xiaoya looked at him dubiously, then looked at her father's bloody arm, and shuddered subconsciously.
This is just a scratch, but if Xu Luo really takes action, what kind of horrific scene will it be?
Thinking of this, the little girl inexplicably felt that Xu Luo's pretty face suddenly felt a little sinister.
She struggled out of Xu Luo's hands like a frightened rabbit, ran to Bai Zhile and quickly helped him into her room.
Master Bai looked at Xu Luo with a nonchalant expression and was speechless.
After being together for such a long time, he has already realized that Xu Luo has an extraordinary background.
But I never expected that the young man who was sweating profusely yesterday to help him lower the net to catch fish would be so fierce and decisive when he started to move!
"Master, is this Bai Zhile really your biological son?"
Seeing his grandfather and grandson looking frightened, Xu Luo laughed at himself.
It was true that he had just acquired Xuan Ming Heavy Water and was not yet ready to give orders. However, he did not explain anything and directly asked the doubts in his heart.
Master Bai seemed to be referring to something sad when he said this, his old face was full of anger and regret, and he hesitated for a long time before letting out a sigh.
"Although family scandals should not be made public, Xiao Luo, since you are in the right situation, I will tell you about it."
Master Bai was also a talented person when he was young, but he was really unsatisfactory in terms of spiritual practice. When he was nearly thirty, he could only reach the spiritual realm.
But after all, they are genuine islanders, so naturally there are many girls willing to marry, especially those boat people, who had Bai Zhile in the second year after getting married.
The more books you read, the more your mind and horizons will gradually improve. However, his own qualifications were not good, so Master Bai pinned all his hopes on his young son.
He taught Bai Zhile to learn literature and martial arts since he was a child, and his youngest son did not live up to his expectations. He had successfully attained spiritual enlightenment before he was even ten years old.
This kind of talent is naturally not worth mentioning among those in the sect, but Master Bai and his wife are extremely satisfied, and they discipline Bai Zhile even more strictly, even to the point of being harsh and pathological.
But Master Bai never imagined that things in this world will always be reversed.
Bai Zhile was instilled in him every day the idea of getting ahead and being unwilling to be behind others, but he developed a crazy and conceited temperament.
As he grew older, Bai Zhile was no longer satisfied with his talent, but was forced to live on the small island of Baishayu.
By the time Master Bai realized something was wrong, Bai Zhile had already reached the age of sixteen and could be treated as a young adult.
It was also the day of the crowning ceremony. Bai Zhile, who had been promoted to the Tongmai realm, proposed to go to the nearest big city of Xuanwu to explore.
But unlike his young and frivolous nature, the middle-aged Master Bai has already seen through this worldly world.
The so-called success in this world actually only accounts for a small part of one's talent and luck, but more of it is supported by one's background, power, and wealth. This is even more true in a world where people and evil coexist in Pokukai.
If Bai Zhile broke into Xuanwu City like this, there is a nine-tenth chance that he would not live to take care of him until his death.
However, according to the rules set by the Begging Alliance, Bai Zhile has the right to choose any island to live on, including Xuanwu City.
Whether you can survive or not depends on your ability.
After the father and son had a big quarrel, Bai Zhile quietly left Baisha Island alone and in frustration, and there was no news from him for the next ten years.
No one expected that Bai Zhile's mother would become ill due to missing her son and eventually pass away.
Ten years later, Bai Zhile, whose face was filled with vicissitudes of life, returned to Baisha Island with the infant Bai Xiaoya in his arms. He only said that this was his daughter, but never mentioned his experiences in the past ten years.
Because his wife died of illness, Master Bai didn't even let him in, but kept Bai Xiaoya by his side.
Another ten years have passed since then. During this period, Bai Zhile will secretly come back to visit his daughter, but as long as Mrs. Bai discovers her, there will definitely be a quarrel.
Looking at Master Bai who looked extremely painful and sad, Xu Luo knew that there must be something fishy going on.
Otherwise, with Master Bai’s character, he would not be so unreasonable and express his anger on others!
Inexplicably, he thought about Bai Zhile's strange sinister aura hidden in his body. Could it be related to it?
