Chapter 123: Infiltrating the Xue Family
Bang!
Just as Xue Zhuang Shan confidently prepared to smash Bai Chen’s head,
Bai Chen blocked Xue Zhuang Shan’s punch with one hand!
At that moment, Xue Zhuang Shan felt as if he had punched a concrete wall!
But the key difference was that the concrete wall would not endure Xue Zhuang Shan’s blow.
Moreover, Xue Zhuang Shan felt a surprising pain!
“Brat! What level of strength do you have?”
Xue Zhuang Shan, realizing he didn’t gain the upper hand, quickly retreated and heightened his alertness.
Bai Chen looked at Xue Zhuang Shan lightly.
“I’ll ask you one last time, who is behind your Xue family?”
“A martial artist? Or… a cultivator?”
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, Xue Zhuang Shan’s pupils suddenly constricted!
He knew that Bai Chen must die here today!
At that moment, Xiao Zhong Han and the others were completely stunned.
When Xue Zhuang Shan revealed his innate early-stage strength, they believed Bai Chen would die.
But now, Bai Chen had effortlessly withstood Xue Zhuang Shan’s punch!
What was happening?
Before they could process their shock, Xue Zhuang Shan charged at Bai Chen again.
This time, he gathered all his strength, aiming to kill Bai Chen!
But no one expected that Bai Chen’s gaze turned cold as he swiftly slapped Xue Zhuang Shan!
With that slap, Xue Zhuang Shan’s skull shattered, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His body flew through the air like a kite with a broken string, crashing to the ground, lifeless.
Xiao Zhong Han trembled at the sight, his face pale and his lips quivering uncontrollably.
“What… what is happening? Who is this guy?!”
Bai Chen approached Xue Zhuang Shan.
Looking at Xue Zhuang Shan, who was barely breathing, Bai Chen hesitated not a moment to use soul search.
As the soul search concluded, Xue Zhuang Shan’s memories flooded into Bai Chen’s mind.
“Zhuang Shan, these people are wanted by those big shots; we must do well.
As long as they are pleased and give us a little something, it will take our Xue family soaring into the sky!
At that time, other worthless families will be trampled beneath us! Even the Song family in the capital will be the same!”
These were the words of Xue Qi Ming in Xue Zhuang Shan’s memories.
Hearing these words, Bai Chen confirmed that there was indeed someone behind the Xue family!
And it must not be an ordinary worldly power!
As the soul search ended, Xue Zhuang Shan died tragically on the spot.
Upon witnessing this scene, Xiao Zhong Han’s legs buckled, and he knelt right in front of Bai Chen.
“Dad! Father! Please spare me! I didn’t see anything! I don’t know anything!”
The mad dog followed closely behind, having wet his pants at this moment.
He knelt on the ground, repeatedly banging his head like pounding garlic against Bai Chen.
The others involved in this matter also knelt down to beg for mercy.
Even Xue Zhuang Shan, who was in the early innate stage, couldn’t hold on for even a few minutes against Bai Chen, let alone them!
It’s important to note that among this group, the strongest was Xiao Zhong Han, who was merely a late-stage martial artist.
However, Bai Chen simply glanced at this group with indifference, then waved his hand.
Streams of energy surged from his palm, directly slaying the few of them.
Bai Chen looked at the group of children left behind and his eyes emitted a red glow.
Before long, the children fell into a daze and drifted back to sleep.
Now, Bai Chen had no good way to handle these children and could only settle them here.
After absorbing Xue Zhuang Shan’s memories, Bai Chen transformed into Xue Zhuang Shan’s appearance.
According to the last remnants of Xue Zhuang Shan’s memories, his next step was to settle the children and then return to the Xue family to report to Xue Qi Ming.
Soon, Bai Chen followed the route from his memories and returned to the Xue family.
Along the way, many members of the Xue family greeted Bai Chen with respectful smiles.
Meanwhile, Bai Chen carefully sensed if there were any traces of cultivators within the Xue family.
But unfortunately, he found nothing.
Before long, Bai Chen arrived at a room and gently knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
Bai Chen pushed the door open and entered; it was none other than Xue Qi Ming inside.
Seeing Bai Chen enter, Xue Qi Ming’s eyes lit up.
“Is everything settled?”
Bai Chen mimicked Xue Zhuang Shan’s tone and demeanor, slightly nodding at Xue Qi Ming with a hoarse voice.
“It’s all done.”
Upon hearing this, Xue Qi Ming smiled slightly and stroked his hawk-like nose.
“Good! Those people will come tomorrow! You and I will go greet them together!”
Hearing Xue Qi Ming’s words, Bai Chen, who was about to take action against him, paused.
According to Xue Qi Ming, could he potentially make contact with the people behind the Xue family tomorrow?
If that is the case, it is better for me to remain still for now.
Looking at Xue Qi Ming, Bai Chen pondered for a moment in his mind and then asked,
“Family Head, do immortals really exist in this world?”
In the past, all the information Xue Zhuang Shan heard came from Xue Qi Ming.
Bai Chen planned to extract a bit more information from him.
Xue Qi Ming looked at Bai Zhuang Shan with a hint of confusion at Bai Chen’s words.
“Zhuang Shan, you usually wouldn’t ask so many questions, would you?”
Bai Chen maintained a calm expression.
“Family Head, it’s only natural for anyone to be curious about immortals; I have always been curious myself.”
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, Xue Qi Ming chuckled softly.
“Alright! You are not an outsider, after all.”
“Actually, I’ve been quite curious about why you never asked me before; today I will tell you.”
“In this world, there are indeed immortals!”
Upon hearing Xue Qi Ming’s words, Bai Chen displayed a slight shock on his face.
“Family Head, how is that possible!”
Seeing Bai Chen’s expression, Xue Qi Ming felt quite satisfied.
“What, you don’t believe me? Do you know who has always been instructing us to do these things?”
“I do not know, Sir.”
Looking at Bai Chen’s honest appearance, Xue Qi Ming dismissed the last shred of doubt in his heart and smiled slightly.
“All these years, you are still so foolish, but it’s precisely because you are foolish that I dare to use you.”
“To tell you the truth, the ones instructing our Xue family to do these things are precisely those so-called immortals!”
At these words, Bai Chen feigned surprise.
“What do those immortals look like? Are they like the ones in the stories, flying through the sky and capable of anything?”
Xue Qi Ming was taken aback by Bai Chen’s question, then rubbed his nose.
“You will know when you see them tomorrow! Why ask so much now?”
“Every time they come, they wear black robes; they probably don’t want us to see their true appearances. Anyway, they are immortals!”
“Although you are an innate martial artist and quite strong in the Xue family, I can tell you that you wouldn’t last even a second in their hands!”
“Their abilities are not something a mere worldly person like you can imagine!”
Hearing Xue Qi Ming’s words, Bai Chen continued to act shocked, but he already had his answer in mind.
“What nonsense immortals! They are nothing more than a bunch of cowards who dare not show their faces!”
“This group of scoundrels probably practices with these children and has long lost their human forms!”
“When I meet them tomorrow, I will closely observe who these people really are! Also, I must look into how Nian Nian got targeted!”
“Once targeted once, she could be targeted again; I need to clear out the lurking rats!”
……
Soon, the next day arrived.
Bai Chen followed Xue Qi Ming to the warehouse from the previous day, preparing to greet the so-called immortals.
