Chapter 1275 Hidden Strength
However, Bai Jingyun rolled his eyes and smiled, "Come, send Senior Mo Ling to Calm the Wind Palace to rest. We must guard him closely to protect his safety."
After saying that, a disciple of the clan walked up and took Mo Ling and Xiang Nan away.
The so-called protection was actually surveillance to prevent the two of them from escaping.
After the two of them left, Xuan Qingzhu was puzzled, "What exactly is this Old Man Mo Ling doing?"
Bai Jingyun smiled and said, "He refused to help us now. It's obviously for the ancestor worship ceremony in three days. At the ceremony, he's probably going to make his own request."
Xuan Qingzhu sneered, "With his weak Mo Ling, do you dare to make conditions with the Bai Clan?"
Bai Jingyun smiled and said, "Whatever he wants, we'll give it to him. People like Mo Ling are only good for our Bai Clan, not a threat."
"What about Xiang Nan?" Xuan Qingzhu asked.
Bai Jingyun asked curiously, "You seem to be very concerned about that Xiang Nan. Is he really that important? In my opinion, he's just an ordinary young man."
"You don't understand." Xuan Qingzhu narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "This Xiang Nan has limitless potential. He is the most terrifying martial artist I have ever seen."
Bai Jingyun laughed loudly, "It's just the fifth level of Fortune. To our Bai Clan, this kind of realm isn't even an ant."
Xuan Qingzhu said, "He should be only twenty years old this year, but do you know that less than three years ago, he was just a Origin Realm martial artist?"
Hearing this, Bai Jingyun's expression became serious.
The Bai Clan had as many geniuses as a cow's hair. Back then, Bai Muchen had also reached the Fortune Realm at the age of eighteen.
Although experts from the five Heavenly Spiritual meridians were extremely rare among the disciples of the Bai Clan, it wasn't too difficult for ordinary Heavenly Disciples to step into the Fortune Realm when they were twenty years old. Therefore, Bai Jingyun didn't place Xiang Nan in his eyes.
However, the prerequisite for those people to reach the Fortune Realm at this age was that they would start cultivating at the age of twelve or thirteen.
However, at the age of 17, Xiang Nan was still at the Origin Returning Realm. In just two years, he had crossed over from the Origin Returning Realm to the Fortune Realm.
It was equivalent to Xiang Nan catching up with the progress of the Bai Clan Heavenly Martial Cultivator for an entire eight years in just over two years! This span was unprecedented, and even Bai Jingyun was terrified.
Xuan Qingzhu said, "Now, do you still think my thoughts are superfluous?"
A cold light flashed through Bai Jingyun's eyes as he said, "Since that's the case, then find an opportunity to get rid of Xiang Nan."
"However, it seems that Mo Ling thinks highly of Xiang Nan. We have to make Mo Ling satisfied before we can attack Xiang Nan. There's no harm in letting Xiang Nan live a few more days."
Stop Wind Palace.
This was a wooden building used for guests to live in. The furnishings inside the building were elegant and simple, and there was a faint fragrance of tea floating in the air.
Xiang Nan sat at the window and looked at the sea of clouds outside, his heart heavy.
This was the Bai Clan. It was his real home. He didn't know where his biological parents were right now, and whether they were not far from him.
Exactly why did the Bai Clan give up on him and hand him over to the Profound Sky Sect as a sacrifice?
He knew that it was because the Bai Clan wanted to rope in the Profound Sky Sect so that Xuan Qingzhu could absorb his Heavenly Spirit Five Meridians as a gift to the Profound Sky Sect.
But why himself? With so many people in the Bai Clan, why did they choose Bai Muchen as their sacrifice? Why can't it be someone else.
The puzzlement he had felt over the years had gradually evolved into hatred in Xiang Nan's heart.
If he had the ability, he would definitely gather all of the Bai Clan together and question them face to face.
However, he knew that this was not the right time. Not to mention questioning others, even surviving would be very difficult.
"Half a gourd, is it your Martial Uncle?"
Suddenly, Old Man Mo Ling asked.
Xiang Nan turned around and nodded, "That's right, if you count according to my Heavenly Dao Master's generation, Senior Half Gourd is indeed my Martial Uncle."
Xiang Nan noticed that when Xuan Qingzhu mentioned half a gourd, Old Man Mo Ling's expression changed slightly.
Mo Ling sighed and said, "Half of the gourd was originally called Hu Bushuang. He is my senior apprentice-brother."
"Ah?" Xiang Nan suddenly felt that it was inconceivable. Why was half a gourd still Old Man Mo Ling's senior brother? This was too coincidental.
But why? Half a gourd was clearly a person from his own world. Could it be that he was also a cultivator from another world?
Mo Ling said, "Senior Brother and I grew up together under the nurturing of our master. However, my talent is higher than senior brother's. He has always been unrestrained and unrestrained. He doesn't like to delve into profound dao. He is very different from me."
"Afterwards, as the two of us disagreed with each other, we seldom interacted with each other."
"Later on, he was very close to the Bai Clan. I heard that he disappeared on a mission. So he went to your world."
Xiang Nan hurriedly asked, "Can you explain it in detail? Martial Uncle Half Gourd has never mentioned this part of his past life. Why did he go to our world? What kind of mission did he perform?"
Old Man Mo Ling said, "I'm not sure about the specific situation, but the last time I saw him was half a month before he left. At that time, I went to visit him and heard him mention it briefly."
As he spoke, Mo Ling looked at Xiang Nan and said, "You know, there are two great powers in your world. One is called the Star Guild, and the other is called the Huangpu Aristocrat Clan."
"I know." Xiang Nan said.
Mo Ling nodded, "The Bai Clan is trying to rope in the Profound Sky Sect, but one of the moves is to use the Profound Sky Sect to suppress and disintegrate the Star Guild."
"The other move is aimed at the Huangpu Aristocrat Clan. The Bai Clan has planted another force into your world and secretly destroyed the structure of the Huangpu Aristocrat Clan. Senior Brother Hu is one of the important upper echelons of this force."
Hearing this, Xiang Nan felt his back go cold.
There was also a hidden force?
Heavens, I only know that the Profound Sky Sect is here, but I don't know that there is actually a force controlled by the Bai Clan secretly dealing with the Huangpu Aristocrat Clan right under my nose!
Could it be that the Huangpu Aristocrat Clan's north-south clan chaos was also plotted by that hidden power?
"What's the name of that power?" Xiang Nan hurriedly asked.
Mo Ling shook her head and said, "Then I don't know. I only know that it is a mysterious strength. Very few people know their true colors. Even if they do, they may not understand their true identities."
"Perhaps you've seen that power before, but you don't know how much you can associate with it. That's your own problem."
"A mysterious force." Xiang Nan was thoughtful.
He looked out of the window and saw some Bai Family clansmen coming and going in the distance.
Those members of the Bai Clan were all dressed in white …
Wearing white clothes, wearing white clothes …
Heavenly Devil Religion?
Xiang Nan's brain exploded with a buzz!
In an instant, many small details that he had experienced in the past suddenly surged into his mind. These details were all connected together, forming a huge conspiracy chess game!
When was the first time he met Dream Butterfly? It was in Haotian City!
Back then, why did Dream Butterfly go to Haotian City? She was looking for half a gourd!
Huangpu Ruyan's younger sister, Xiao Yu'er, had been poisoned for many years.
As for that poison, he had seen it in the Dream Butterfly's poison pill before!
