Chapter 610: Great Xia Longque, Eyes Shaking

Hong Li stood still for three seconds, then without saying a word, he walked out of the hall, his fingers trembling tightly under his sleeves.

The water clan bowed their heads and dared not say anything, then suddenly a black light flashed, and the whole person exploded into a mist of blood.

Lord Hongze withdrew his hand, "I’ve pleased my cousin."

"No worries, I didn’t expect such a madman from the Ming Country, it’s a pity he was killed without clarifying his identity."

"The identity has been revealed," Lord Hongze said. no mistake… coincidentally, it’s also my cousin who came to discuss matters with me this time.

"Oh?" Black Dragon said strangely, "Is it that knight from the Ming Country?"

"Some things are better left unsaid until Lord Weishan arrives," Lord Hongze chose not to continue.

"Alright then, let us stick to the agreement. My elder brother will attend the banquet alone on the appointed day," the messenger Black Dragon stood up, "However, my brother is no longer the Dragon Lord of Weishan. He stepped down just a few days ago and is now a free man."

Lord Hongze frowned. This is indeed a great sacrifice.

"All for the sake of the children."

"Yes, all for the future generations." Lord Hongze was deeply moved and bid farewell respectfully, "Please inform my elder brother that I am ready to welcome him at any time."

The visitor left.

Lord Hongze kept touching the Chen character tattoo on his forehead with his fingers, making it deeper with each stroke.

"Huaishui, I hold all the cards and control the meal on this plate. Sooner or later, you will be swallowed whole. Where can you escape to, little Xue…"

"Come back obediently. After all, you are the future dragon queen, yet you chose this thorny path. It is truly foolish."

"Don’t say it’s Huaishui, now in the Ming Country, no one can protect you…"

…

At night, in the military area of Jinling City.

"Just stop here for now, your body is weak, rest well, you have worked hard."

"Yes, leader."

"Next, the team will be reorganized, you have enough time to take a break, this matter will be thoroughly investigated, then cooperate for a few more days and everything will be fine."

The elderly man in plain gray coat patted Bai Chang’s shoulder, then got up and left.

The doctor in a white coat waiting on the side said. Your condition is not serious, just replenish some nutrients, rest, everything will be fine. The others are also doing well, some injuries are not severe, except for one person who injured their internal organs and may need to have a kidney removed. We have already taken a matching kidney from the inventory. Once everyone is stable, the transplant surgery will be performed.

Bai Chang nodded to indicate his understanding.

The benefits at the 19th ward are top-notch, especially the medical services and…

Funeral services.

When he was hospitalized, not only was the bill waived, but he also received the best medical care and a considerable amount of financial aid and nutrition fee.

But perhaps nobody really wants to take this money, it might just be luck this time, who knows if they will be as lucky next time.

After the doctor opened the door, he said. Family members can come in now.

Luo Shu, who was waiting outside the door, immediately stood up and hurried over in three quick steps, relieved to see Bai Chang sitting on the hospital bed.

Her eyes turned red. Thank goodness, you’re okay…

"Don’t cry, everything is fine, right?" Bai Chang comforted his wife.

Following Luo Shu, there were three other people.

Bai Xinghui concluded after a simple pulse check that there were no major injuries, just a bit weak internally, a couple of days of rest will do the trick.

"That’s good," Yagyū Simozi immediately asked. So… what about brother?

Due to Yagyū Simozi killing first-class offender Li Qizong, she also received special attention.

After coordinating information, she learned about Bai Chang being hospitalized, rushed over, expecting Bai Wei to be there as well, but he was not.

Bai Chang gently patted Luo Shu’s back, holding her hand, feeling lucky to have survived a disaster, but also confused as he said. I saw him seven hours ago, then he left, this boy… I wonder what he’s hiding from me.

Worried, Luo Shu asked. Has he gone missing? Could he have been caught?

"He willingly disappeared, after he left, that sorcerer who knows Animal Transformation Art stayed put, didn’t dare to move at all. When the logistics team from the 19th Division arrived, he was caught, currently under interrogation. I’m not sure of the details." Bai Chang paused here.

He already knew about Cang Jinglei being a traitor.

But there’s a confidentiality agreement on this matter, even family members can’t talk about it.

He chose to talk about something he knew, "There was another dead sorcerer at the scene, the death was very tragic. I guess a powerful ally might have been brought by Zhigo, and they left together, maybe still investigating something…"

Yagyū Simozi raised an eyebrow, "Can you describe how he died?"

"There was a hole in the chest, and both hands were broken."

"No signs of a sword?"

"No sword marks, very violent, killed in one blow." Bai Chang also expressed doubt, "That sorcerer was very strong, above me, at the level of a grandmaster. His martial arts were focused on his arms for half a lifetime, yet they were forcefully broken. The person who helped must have unfathomable strength. Zhigo following him should be safe, no need to worry."

Yagyū Simozi exclaimed. You misunderstood, I’m not worried about his safety. After all, the one who killed that sorcerer is him.

Bai Chang froze.

Bai Xinghui elbowed Yagyū, "Don’t talk nonsense… there’s no way my brother is that powerful."

Yagyū Simozi touched her forehead and patted Sakurai Shiru’s head, "Tell them, what is my brother’s current realm?"

Sakurai Shiru didn’t know much Chinese and hesitantly said. Martial Saint.

Shocked the Bai family for a hundred years.

Bai Xinghui’s eyes contracted in shock for a second, then shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, how could this be possible? Even when my brother had the highest talent in the past, he didn’t become a Martial Saint in his twenties. The spirit vein bone allowed him to naturally convert the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into his own true energy, but after the bone was broken, he lost this ability. His cultivation had long been stagnant, reaching the limit at the third rank, and my grandfather even tested him before."

"Mr. White was only a Grand Master in the later stage." Yagyū Simozi patted the sword on her waist, "Now he may not even be my opponent, let alone figure out my brother’s true strength."

Bai Chang had considered this possibility, but since he didn’t see it with his own eyes, when he was under the Animal Transformation Art, he was barely conscious of what was happening outside the warehouse. If Bai Wei were a Martial Saint, he would indeed come to save him, but how could that be possible…

"Six months ago, my brother’s cultivation was stagnant, his true energy scattered; four months ago, his cultivation returned to the third rank; three months ago, he reached the second rank as a junior Grand Master; two months ago, he broke through to a Grand Master, slew the fallen mountain god, and defeated the curtain mansion’s Blade Hunt; in less than a month, he broke through to Martial Saint…" Yagyū Simozi talked about Bai Wei’s process of improving his strength with envy and confusion, "His advancement in strength is as fast as riding a rocket. I can hardly see my brother spending time on martial arts, yet his realm of strength is constantly climbing, faster and easier each time, as if he’s not even exerting himself, just playing around."

"Did he experience some kind of miracle?" Bai Xinghui asked. Is that really still my brother?

"Whether it is or not, you know best."

"Well," Bai Xinghui said complicatedly, "I’m a bit confused."

If I had known my brother was a very skilled martial artist, I wouldn’t have hurried to arrange blind dates for him.

"Let’s keep this a secret from our father for now," Bai Chang exhaled deeply. "Let him come back and explain himself later in private. It’s important to keep it confidential, okay?"

"So, where did Zhege go? Did he chase after the dark sorcerer?" Luo Shu asked unhappily. "Even though he is a Martial Saint, he shouldn’t be so reckless. Warriors have their limits. Once caught by a spell, it’s easy to be…"

"A Martial Saint wouldn’t," Bai Chang shook his head as he leaned back on the sickbed, squinting at the ceiling. His tone was full of admiration and longing. "Reaching the level of a Martial Saint is the pinnacle for warriors, breaking all barriers with sheer force. Not to mention… he’s a master with a blade, almost invincible within the Ming Country."

"Only almost?" Luo Shu asked greedily for more information.

"Almost is already terrifying enough. Although a Martial Saint stands at the peak of warriors, there are still different levels within that realm that I can’t comprehend," Bai Chang explained. "Even if facing an equally skilled opponent, they could retreat if they can’t win. Unless it’s a second-grade heroic spirit, it’s impossible to defeat a Martial Saint head-on… My Bai family must truly be blessed by the heavens."

Yagyū Simozi sighed. So my brother didn’t leave any messages or clues? I wonder where he went.

Perhaps due to the effects of using wedding attire and the sorrowful sword intent, she couldn’t see Bai Wei. The fire in her heart couldn’t be extinguished, burning her with a cold, painful sensation.

Bai Chang shook his head in resignation.

In the silence, a voice suddenly entered the hospital room.

"Your brother has run away with another woman."

Everyone turned around to look, Yagyū Simozi’s eyes unconsciously showing a hint of coldness and hostility… Who, who is spreading rumors!

Pushing the door open, a figure walked into the hospital room, carrying a sword at the waist, dressed in a mix of Tang and Han clothing, loose-fitting attire, with short and neat hair. If it weren’t for the soft facial features and curves on the chest, she could easily be mistaken for a man.

Bai Chang looked at the woman, first with confusion, then at the sword, his second glance instinctively wanting to get off the bed.

He might not know this woman, but he couldn’t fail to recognize that sword… The sword is named Xia Longque the Great, both a Holy Relic and a heroic spirit armament!

The only person who could wear this national treasure and antique anywhere is one person, the second-grade heroic spirit of Ming Country, General Xia Longque.

Despite being uninformed, Yagyū Simozi asked. Who are you?

Bai Xinghui immediately intervened, saying, "General Xia, she doesn’t know you, please don’t be offended…"

"It’s okay, not everyone in the country knows me, I’m not Ji Luoyang, there’s no need to be so nervous. I don’t bite. You should lie down and rest. Knowing my name should give you an idea of my personality. I am a very kind person," Xia Longque patted her hand. "How can I let the injured hero get up?"

She then turned to Yagyū Simozi. "And I want to make it clear that I didn’t come here on purpose to talk to you about this. The news came to me and I thought the family should know."

She presented a notice regretfully, saying, "Young girl, Lord Hongze has issued a warrant for your brother’s arrest, the reason being… he took away Lord Hongze’s son Hong Li’s wife and killed the Water Lord of Shao Bo River."

"Indeed, he did elope with another woman, I’m not making it up."

Everyone’s gaze focused on the wanted poster.

Bai Xinghui’s pupils dilated, as did everyone else’s in the room, their hearts roaring in unison.

Elder brother, what are you doing?!
