The arrival of Bai Ying and Sun Shuo in the sky above Xilin City immediately attracted the attention of many people in the city. As for the two patriarchs of the two families who had recently caused a great stir, everyone was just watching the show. Now that the two of them had appeared, it was inevitable that they would cause a commotion.
"Hehe, aren't the Sun Clan and the Bai Clan the clan leaders? I heard that three months ago, these two families were fighting over Xiao Yan, but it seems that in the end, it was the Bai Clan leader who took him away."
"Hey, that's right. Not only was he taken away by the Bai Clan, but he was also taken away from the Sun Clan's stronghold, in Hanxi City. I heard that after this incident, many elders of the Sun Clan were dismissed by the Sun Clan family patriarch, and even a few high-ranking elders were killed by him in a fit of rage, just because they didn't dare to make a move against that Xiao Yan."
"Hmph, take action? You must be joking. I was there. You don't know how ruthless Xiao Yan is. He single-handedly crushed everyone in the city with just his Six-Star Half-Emperor. There were more than ten Nine-Star Half-Emperor there, not to mention countless seven-star and eight-star ones. Even so, he was like a hammer blow to watermelons in front of Xiao Yan. One punch after another, hundreds of Half-Emperor powerhouses were all taken down by him alone. And you call that taking action? The Sun Clan family was terrified. Who would dare to go up and take him? Wouldn't that be suicide!"
"Exactly! Later on, even the Sun Clan family patriarch suffered a setback at Xiao Yan's hands. Half of his face was beaten so badly that it was bigger than his original head. If even the patriarch was beaten like that, how could anyone else possibly take his place?"
"That's right. It's said that the reason Bai Ying was able to take Xiao Yan away so easily was because Xiao Yan had driven back the Sun Clan patriarch and injured him, which allowed Xiao Yan to take him away. Otherwise, hehe, the Sun Clan would have been in trouble!"
Inside the city, the crowd watched Bai Ying and Sun Shuo in the sky with mocking expressions, boasting to each other about their knowledge of the earth-shattering battle in Hanxi City three months ago. But unknowingly, their conversation subtly shifted from the newly appeared Bai Ying and Sun Shuo to Xiao Yan. This caused Xiao Yan, who was sitting cross-legged on his bed and Spiritual Strength had detected their conversation, to have a slight change in expression on his Elder Zhang face. He felt a pang of embarrassment and even began to doubt whether the Xiao Yan these people were talking about was truly him.
Although this isn't the first time we've heard such opinions, it's certainly a gross exaggeration.
Above, Sun Shuo and Bai Ying listened to the whispers coming from the crowd below with different expressions. At this moment, the two were also thinking differently. Sun Shuo, in particular, had a face that turned extremely gloomy after hearing what the crowd was saying.
Even now, recalling what happened three months ago is still a painful memory for Sun Shuo. If Bai Ying hadn't suddenly intervened at that crucial moment, Xiao Yan would have already become a possession of the Sun Clan. But the final outcome was something no one could have predicted.
Recalling the scene when Bai Ying suddenly made his move that day, Sun Shuo felt a surge of anger. His sharp and domineering gaze pierced through the void like an arrow, heading towards Bai Ying, who was also standing in the void.
"Snort!"
Facing Sun Shuo's invisible pressure, Bai Ying was not afraid at all. He suddenly waved his sleeve, and an invisible pressure spread rapidly across the void, easily blocking Sun Shuo's invisible energy.
After doing all this, Bai Ying put his hands behind his back, looked at Sun Shuo with displeasure, let out a soft snort, and said in a low voice:
"Clan Chief Sun, what is the meaning of this?!"
The moment the words, carrying a faint air of authority, left his lips, the crowd below fell silent. All eyes turned to Bai Ying, finally settling on him. A cold smile crept across their faces; Bai Ying's words were clearly a rhetorical question, knowing full well why Sun Shuo was angry, yet deliberately provoking him with these words. Bai Ying's actions were clearly intent on causing trouble!
"Hmph! Bai Ying! You're asking a question you already know the answer to. If you hadn't interfered that day, Xiao Yan would have been Sun Clan long ago. How dare you speak so arrogantly in front of me? I can't tolerate you!"
As expected, after Bai Ying finished speaking, Sun Shuo's expression immediately turned ashen. With a furious curse escaping his lips, Sun Shuo's body trembled violently, and a powerful aura surged forth from his body. In an instant, almost everyone's expression changed drastically, and fearful gazes turned to Sun Shuo. At that moment, the latter swung his hand, unleashing a terrifyingly powerful beam of Dou Qi qi, imbued with his inner rage, that crashed down upon Bai Ying with overwhelming force.
The sheer terror of this attack caused the faces of everyone in the city below to turn deathly pale. Even some Nine-Star Half-Emperor level experts, under the residual force of this attack, also had their faces quickly turn ashen.
The power of Dou Di is truly formidable. Such power, if it were to fall upon any Half-Emperor expert in the city below, would be enough to kill them instantly. Of course, Xiao Yan is not included among these so-called Half-Emperor experts, since Xiao Yan is now considered a Dou Di expert by everyone.
"Hmph, Sun Shuo, are you so eager to start a war with my Bai Clan?"
With a cold snort, Bai Ying showed no fear. He stomped his foot on the void, and a powerful Dou Qi instantly swept out, transforming into a purple lightning dragon flashing with lightning. In the blink of an eye, it collided fiercely with the oncoming rainbow light.
"Boom!"
Instantly, a deafening roar erupted, followed by a powerful energy storm that swept across the sky!
Upon seeing this scene, the expressions on the faces of everyone in the city changed once again. At this moment, in the two villas in the city, the two leaders of the Zhuo Clan and the Huo Clan, their wrinkled old faces gradually huddled together, their gazes fixed on the sky above, their deep eyes revealing a profound solemnity.
