"Ancestor Bai, we have to stop now, or it'll be too late," Bai Xian'er said weakly.
Bai Wangyuan suddenly turned to Mist Ancestor and Mu Xie. "The Four Sides Heavenly Balance will stop attacking Lu Xiao Xuan. Tell him to stop, too. Immediately."
Wang Fan and Dragon Ancestor looked grim. They had heard Bai Wangyuan and Bai Xian'er's conversation. The Bai Family couldn't afford to lose Bai Xian'er, but the Wang Family and the White Dragon Clan didn't feel the same way.
They exchanged glances, preparing to intervene.
Mist Ancestor spoke first. "Bai Wangyuan, are you sure you want to stop?"
"I'm sure," Bai Wangyuan replied gravely.
Mist Ancestor looked at Wang Fan and Dragon Ancestor. "What about you two?"
Wang Fan frowned. Whether Bai Xian'er lived or died had nothing to do with the Wang Family. "Lu Xiao Xuan managed to drive back Xia Shenji despite being only a Star Envoy. He's far too dangerous. We—" Bai Wangyuan cut him off. "If the Wang Family and the White Dragon Clan refuse to stop, the Bai Family will oppose you."
Wang Fan flew into a rage. "Bai Wangyuan, what did you just say?"
Bai Wangyuan's gaze turned steely. "You know how important Xian'er is to the Bai Family."
Wang Fan and Dragon Ancestor stared at Bai Wangyuan. The atmosphere grew heavy.
Mu Xie spoke up. "With the Bai Family on our side, we might actually have a chance."
Mist Ancestor nodded. "Bai Wangyuan, Mu Xie and I against Wang Fan, Xia Shenji, and Long Er. Of course, they have Ancestors on their side, but so do we. That kid Lu Xiao Xuan can count as two Ancestors by himself. Mm, we have a chance."
Bai Wangyuan's expression darkened further. They were actually going to help the Lu Family's remnant. Infuriating.
