"Senior Bai Hua, what's wrong? What happened?"
Liu Huabai, the head of the Liu Clan family, and Liu Xincheng, the eldest elder beside him, looked at each other, both of them somewhat puzzled.
Bai Hua is the transformed Pill Beast that Xiao Yan left in the Liu Clan. Now, in the Liu Clan, he usually takes human form and is the person with the highest status in the Liu Clan, apart from the clan leader Liu Huabai and the eldest elder Liu Xincheng.
Of course, this is only in normal circumstances. If no one is around, even the two of them treat Bai Hua with great respect.
"Someone's here."
Bai Hua gazed at the distant horizon Qingyang City, his expression solemn. He had already quietly raised his Dou Qi to prepare for any unexpected changes.
Upon hearing this, Liu Huabai and Liu Xincheng was standing beside him, were initially taken aback. Then, seeing the deep gravity on Bai Hua's face, they immediately became tense. Liu Huabai quickly followed Bai Hua's gaze and asked in a low voice:
"Senior, could it be someone from the Qingyun Manor again?"
Since Xiao Yan left the Liu Clan, the Qingyun Manor has sent people to the Liu Clan a total of five times. The last time, the people who came were the strongest, and the leader of the team had reached the level of One-Star Half-Emperor. However, in the end, they still had no choice but to return empty-handed.
As for this time, Liu Huabai dared not imagine. If it were really like that, then the strength of this person would probably be more than just One-Star Half-Emperor.
"It's hard to say. There was only one person coming, and he seemed to be investigating something. If it were someone from the Qingyun Manor, they should have come directly to the Liu Clan instead of doing these pointless things."
Bai Hua frowned, but slowly shook his head, his solemn gaze never leaving the horizon.
"This... if he's not from the Qingyun Manor, then what's he doing here? A small city like ours doesn't have anything worth the attention of Half-Emperor."
Elder Liu Xincheng frowned, stroking his white beard with one hand, and said in a low voice.
"It's still unclear. I just hope he's just passing through; otherwise, this time, even I might not be able to stop him."
Bai Hua said with a solemn expression.
The two members of the Liu Clan standing nearby nodded in agreement, sharing the same hope.
Unfortunately, fate is often unkind. Just as Bai Hua finished speaking, on the horizon outside Qingyang City, Qin Zhong, Four-Star Half-Emperor, stepped into the void and flew rapidly towards Qingyang City.
"They're here!"
At the Liu Clan mansion, Bai Hua solemnly spoke to Liu Huabai and the other person beside him, then quickly flew into the sky with a heavy heart, standing ten thousand feet above Qingyang City.
Liu Huabai and Liu Xincheng quickly followed suit.
Now, Bai Hua represents the Liu Clan. They can't just let Bai Hua go out to face the enemy alone while they themselves cower at home, afraid to show their faces.
As Bai Hua soared into the sky, a black dot rapidly approached from the distant horizon, its subtle aura causing Bai Hua's heart to grow heavy with unease.
As the figure entered the territory of Qingyang City, Bai Hua took a deep breath, extended a pair of fair hands from beneath his sleeves, and clasped them in a fist salute towards the figure from afar, saying:
"May I ask who you are, and what brings you to my Qingyang City?"
A clear voice, like a clap of thunder, resounded throughout the land. In Qingyang City below, everyone looked up at the sky. In their line of sight, Bai Hua and his two companions were clearly visible. At the same time, in their vision, there was also a blurry figure flying rapidly toward Bai Hua and his companions at an astonishing speed.
Upon seeing this scene, Qingyang City below immediately became lively. After what had happened to the Liu Clan several times before, the people in the city could roughly guess that Qingyun Manor had probably sent people again. However, compared to the last time, the people of Qingyang City felt more pity for them.
Do they still remember the last time Liu Huabai fought against the leader of the Qingyun Manor? That battle was the most terrifying one they had ever seen in their lives. Although Bai Hua lost in the end, fortunately, the Liu Clan was unharmed.
But this time, things might not be so lucky. According to the speculation of the people of Qingyang City, the Liu Clan might really be facing a great calamity this time!
"Hahaha, sir, are you Bai Hua?"
Before the person even arrived, a loud, booming laugh suddenly erupted like a thunderclap, suggesting that the newcomer meant no harm.
In the sky, Bai Hua's expression tightened slightly, and Liu Huabai and Liu Xincheng behind him also showed a look of surprise. Why did this person seem to be coming for Bai Hua?
After a moment of stunned silence, Bai Hua quickly regained his composure, cupped his hands in greeting to the unfamiliar old man who had already come within a hundred feet of him, and said:
"My name is Bai Hua. May I ask who you are?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhong laughed heartily, but instead of answering Bai Hua's question, he turned his gaze to Liu Huabai and Liu Xincheng behind Bai Hua and spoke again with a smile:
"Then these two must be Liu Huabai, the head of the Liu Clan family, and Liu Xincheng, the eldest elder!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Huabai and Liu Xincheng immediately tensed up, not daring to be negligent. They quickly leaped forward, standing side by side with Bai Hua, and at the same time, clasped their hands respectfully to Qin Zhong and said:
"We, the two juniors, greet you, senior!"
Facing a Half-Emperor powerhouse whom even Bai Hua dared not be careless about, the two of them were naturally even more nervous. As they spoke, their bodies, wrapped in brocade robes, trembled slightly, and beads of cold sweat slowly trickled down their temples.
"Hehe, okay, if that's the case, then that's right, haha."
Qin Zhong laughed heartily, finally feeling relieved. Although he arrived half a year late, he was relieved to see that the Liu Clan family was safe and sound.
Although Qin Zhong thought this way, Bai Hua and the other two heard it in a completely different way.
Upon hearing this, Bai Hua and the other two's expressions immediately turned ugly. Judging from these words, the other party really was from the Qingyun Manor!
"This... Senior, what should we do now!"
Liu Huabai asked Bai Hua in a low voice, looking nervous.
Liu Huabai took a deep breath, and after a long while, he transmitted his voice to Liu Xincheng Liu Huabai:
"Once I start fighting him, you all need to quickly evacuate some of the Liu Clan members. I'll hold him off. Remember, you must be quick. This guy's strength is at the Four-Star Half-Emperor. With my current strength, I can't hold him off for long."
"Senior!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Huabai and Liu Xincheng's expressions changed instantly, and they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise to Bai Hua.
Liu Huabai and Bai Hua looked at each other with solemn expressions. From his words, they could hear a resolute determination in his voice. If a fight broke out later, Bai Hua would definitely fight to the last breath to ensure that the Liu Clan could escape from Qingyang City.
"Stop talking, go now!"
Bai Hua shouted a sharp word at Liu Huabai and the other person behind him, then suddenly turned around. His Dou Qi surged out, and with a wave of his sleeve, a gentle force pushed Liu Huabai and the other person towards Qingyang City below. He then moved and rushed towards Qin Zhong, who was staring at him in astonishment.
" Qingyun Manor, you really won't give up! Since you've come looking for trouble, there's no need for further words, let's fight!"
Bai Hua shouted sharply, and with a sudden wave of his hand, a long sword fell into his palm. The sword trembled, and Dou Qi overflowed.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Hua had arrived in front of Qin Zhong, wielding his long sword and thrusting it towards Qin Zhong's neck.
"You..."
Qin Zhong was suddenly shocked and even more confused. Why was this guy so eager to fight him the moment he arrived? They had never met before, let alone had any grudges against each other. This made him feel quite aggrieved.
But before he could speak, Bai Hua's sword was already in front of him, leaving him no room to relax.
Given that Qin Zhong was Four-Star Half-Emperor, Bai Hua dared not hold back in the slightest when he made his move. As a result, his attacks were naturally even more swift and fierce. In addition, Bai Hua's sudden attack caught Qin Zhong off guard, and for a moment, Qin Zhong felt as if he was attacked from both sides.
At the same time, this made it even more difficult for him to explain his true intentions. In addition, Qin Zhong was afraid that if he made a move, he would hurt Bai Hua, which made it even harder for him to have an opportunity.
Seeing that the Four-Star Half-Emperor in front of him was completely powerless to resist, Bai Hua Bai Hua n't help but feel a little suspicious.
Under this endless battle, Qin Zhong finally could not bear it any longer. He could not keep fighting with Bai Hua here forever, and he had to forcefully stop this misunderstanding.
"This guy, a mere One-Star Half-Emperor, how come he keeps attacking? Sigh, there's nothing I can do but let you bear with this to clear up the misunderstanding!"
Qin Zhong sighed helplessly to himself. He didn't want Bai Hua to mistakenly think he was from the Qingyun Manor for no reason.
"Drink!"
With a sharp shout, Qin Zhong, who was retreating, suddenly stood still in the void. His body trembled violently, and a domineering pressure belonging to Four-Star Half-Emperor rapidly spread out from his body.
With his fists clenched, thick, earthy-yellow Dou Qi rapidly condensed on them. With a swift movement, he once again clashed with the oncoming Bai Hua.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
After several dozen rounds, Qin Zhong finally shattered the longsword in Bai Hua's hand with a single punch. At the same time, with a powerful jolt, he sent Bai Hua flying more than a hundred feet away, giving both of them a brief chance to catch their breath.
Bai Hua struggled to stop, not daring to be careless in the slightest, fearing that the latter would step forward again.
But just as he looked up, Qin Zhong opposite him withdrew all his Dou Qi, looking at him helplessly, also breathing slightly heavily. After a long while, under Bai Hua's astonished gaze, he slowly spoke, saying:
"It was Xiao Yan who asked me to come to the Liu Clan in Qingyang City."
