No one present was a fool. The moment they saw the mummy, they thought of the previous performance of Piaoxue City in the Far North. All this was obvious enough.
Why has the ancestor of Piaoxue City in the far north not shown up for so many years? Because he has been dead long ago!
Why did the ancestor of the Far North Piaoxue City have to hold a birthday for ten years? That was because Bai Hantian and others were afraid that outsiders would know that the ancestor of the Far North Piaoxue City was dead, so they tried every means to cover it up.
The best way to conceal it is to put the 'reality' in front of everyone's eyes.
Seeing this scene, Bai Hantian and Bai Hanfeng's complexions became extremely pale.
Exposed, the secret they had concealed for decades was finally exposed.
In fact, the ancestor of Piaoxue City in the far north has been dead for a long time. Not long after he started to retreat into seclusion, he died because something went wrong during his practice, causing the recurrence of old injuries.
At that time, Bai Hantian didn't dare to leak the news because they had offended too many people in Piaoxue City in the far north.
After the ancestor of the Bai family entered the True Fire God Refining Realm, Far North Piaoxue City began to expand crazily. I am afraid that even Far North Piaoxue City itself does not know how many people it has offended and how many enemies it has made.
.
Because the ancestor of the Bai family is in charge, the Far North Piaoxue City can be so confident now. However, once the Bai family ancestor dies, the situation that the Far North Piaoxue City will face is something that Bai Hantian simply cannot even imagine.
So Bai Hantian came up with this trick out of desperation, using the secret formation of Piaoxue City in the far north to retain part of the power of the corpse, and then hold a birthday party every ten years, with Bai Hanfeng hiding inside and imitating
He was talking to the ancestor of the Bai family and using the formation to release his breath, just to create an illusion that the ancestor of the Bai family was still alive.
It's just that the Bai family's formation is not used to preserve corpses, but to preserve living people.
If some warriors are seriously injured and are on the verge of death, they can use this formation to hold their breath until they find a way to save them.
But what the formation consumes is not ordinary power, but blood that is closely related to this warrior, who is very young and full of vitality.
During these years, for every birthday, the Bai family would choose a young disciple with outstanding talent to donate his blood and pour it into the formation. This blood would be able to maintain the formation for ten years.
Although it is said that the warrior who donates blood will not die, his vitality will be severely damaged, and he will basically be useless in this life.
And because they saw something they shouldn't have seen, even though they were all disciples of Piaoxue City in the far north, Bai Hantian also knew that not every disciple would choose to sacrifice their own future for the sake of their family.
In order to ensure that they would not tell these things, Bai Hantian had no choice but to imprison them all. Externally, he said that these people all went to retreat after being instructed by their ancestors. After the retreat, they went to wander the world and never returned.
This kind of excuse can be used once or twice, but if it is used too often, in fact, some people in the Far North Piaoxue City already feel that something is wrong, and even suspect it. This is the case for Bai Wuji.
It's just that he didn't believe that his father would harm him. He didn't pay attention at first, but then he accidentally discovered some clues and began to investigate. But the final truth made him shudder. His father was really...
He planned to sacrifice him to serve as fuel for a dead man!
At this time, Bai Wuji was standing nearby, with a very low sense of presence, but there was a sad look in his eyes.
I remember that when Piaoxue City in the far north teamed up with Chu Xiu to attack Juyizhuang, Chu Xiu killed Nie Dongliu, but the result was that Nie Renlong became furious and even became possessed.
At that time, Bai Wuji wanted to ask Bai Hantian, if he was also killed, would he risk his life to avenge him like Nie Renlong?
However, for fear of hurting his feelings, Bai Wuji did not ask this question.
But now there is no need to ask this question, the reality has told Bai Wuji everything.
In Bai Hantian's eyes, the interests of Piaoxue City in the Far North were placed above his son.
Anyway, he has more than one son, and he doesn't want to kill Bai Wuji this time.
A tiger's poison will not eat its seeds, but he has raised this son so big, and now he wants to borrow something from him, isn't it okay?
At this time, Chu Xiu shook his head with a joking smile on his face and said: "Tsk tsk, City Lord Bai, to be honest, I didn't expect you to be so good at playing, and to scare the entire martial arts community in the far north for so many years with a dead man.
, Tsk tsk, I have an idea.”
"Chu Xiu! You deserve to die!"
Bai Hantian's face suddenly became distorted, and he attacked Chu Xiu wildly.
At the same time, Bai Hanfeng did the same, charging towards Chu Xiu with a furious look on his face.
The two brothers have hidden this secret for so many years. As long as they can hide it until there is another strong man in the True Fire God Refining Realm from their Bai family, the ancestor of the Bai family can pass away calmly.
In the end, all of this was messed up by Chu Xiu. Now that the secret is exposed, this matter will spread throughout the entire Beiyan Wulin the next day, and Piaoxue City in the far north will immediately become the target of public criticism!
The warriors who had grudges against their Far North Piaoxue City in the past would be thinking about how to get revenge. Even these forces now must be dissatisfied with the Far North Piaoxue City.
Over the years, how many gifts have they given to the Far North Piaoxue City? Together, they all gave them to a dead person. Over the years, they have actually given birthday wishes to a dead person until now. When I think about it now, it is simply unlucky.
Chu Xiu retreated backwards, the power of his soul condensed into a bow and turned into arrows, and the soul-killing arrows were shot out one after another. His mental power was so powerful that it was simply astonishing.
Several arrows were fired in unison, temporarily stopping Bai Hantian and Bai Hanfeng. He shouted at Mei Qinglian and Pang Hu, "Let's go!"
Things in Piaoxue City in the far north have been exposed, and there is no need for Chu Xiu to continue fighting with Bai Hantian and others here.
After all, Piaoxue City in the far north has been passed down for thousands of years. Chu Xiu and the other three want to destroy the family. I am afraid they are thinking too simply. There must be some trump cards in Piaoxue City in the far north.
But then Piaoxue City in the far north will have a headache. They will face countless enemies that they have offended in the past and are offending now.
If these people come alone, they are no match for Far North Piaoxue City, but if they swarm them, Far North Piaoxue City will be able to endure it.
When Pang Hu and Mei Qinglian saw that Chu Xiu wanted to leave, they escaped in time.
Those ordinary Far North Piaoxue City disciples might be able to block them for a while with external objects, but if they want to leave, these people can't stop them.
Before leaving, Chu Xiu glanced at Bai Wuji secretly and made a gesture. He believed that Bai Wuji would understand it, and Bai Wuji did not dare to lie to him.
Bai Wuji revealed what happened this time, and the handle he held was in Chu Xiu's hands.
If he dares to deceive Chu Xiu, Chu Xiu only needs to tell Bai Hantian the news, and I believe Bai Hantian will be so angry that he will kill his relatives out of righteousness.
Seeing Chu Xiu and others retreating calmly, Bai Hantian looked gloomy, but did not pursue them.
One is that with the strength of Chu Xiu and others, once they leave Piaoxue City in the far north and catch up on their own, there is no telling who will kill whom.
Besides, there is still huge trouble waiting for them right now.
Some people present walked away directly and sneered: "You guys in Extreme North Piaoxue City are having a good time, but you treat me like an idiot. I will remember this lesson. From now on, you guys in Extreme North Piaoxue City will
Go and play by yourself!”
After the words fell, everyone turned and left. Bai Hantian wanted to stop them, but didn't know how to stop them.
Ren Qianli also left Chen Jinting with a somewhat confused look on his face. It was obvious that he had not yet reacted to this series of changes.
Seeing Chen Jinting's appearance, Ren Qianli couldn't help but snorted: "Do you see anything? When walking in the world, the key is to cultivate your own strength first.
Why did he, Chu Xiu, dare to stir up trouble in the Far North Piaoxue City today? Even if he guessed wrong, the ancestor of the Far North Piaoxue City was still alive, and he would have the confidence to escape.
With your current strength, you still want to challenge Chu Xiu, but you are far behind!"
Ren Qianli was not trying to teach Chen Jinting a lesson, but he wanted to make his junior brother understand how he should go in the future.
His master had accepted both of them as disciples in his lifetime, and the gap between the two was too big, so there was no such thing as competition. On the contrary, Ren Qianli still hoped that Chen Jinting would come forward.
Fang Jinwu is old after all. The ancestors of Piaoxue City in the far north have been dead for so many years. How many years Fang Jinwu can live is unknown.
In the Beiyan court, Ren Qianli actually had no backer. His backer was Fang Jinwu.
When Fang Jinwu dies, he and Chen Jinting will be the only two people left in his lineage. If Chen Jinting can be more upbeat, the two can still support each other.
At this time, Chu Xiu and others did not leave directly after leaving the city, but were waiting more than ten miles outside Piaoxue City in the far north.
He had given Bai Wuji a gesture before, asking him to keep walking in this direction and he would be able to find them. He believed that Bai Wuji would come.
Pang Hu touched his head, clicked his tongue and shook his head and said: "The people in this big sect are really smart. They can come up with all these tricks and even deceive others for decades. No one has discovered it for so many years."
Mei Qinglian said from the side: "It's not that no one found something wrong, but that even if someone felt something was wrong, no one dared to try it."
After saying that, Mei Qinglian glanced at Chu Xiu: "After all, there are few people as bold as you in the world. I said, are you afraid that your guess is wrong and the ancestor of the Bai family is not dead?"
Chu Xiu said calmly: "If you guess wrong, you will be wrong. Who can guarantee that you will be right all your life? Even if the ancestor of the Bai family is still alive, he is probably about to become a withered bone in the grave. I can't beat such an old guy.
