149: Chapter 149: Those are all his brothers!

A tripartite confrontation.

Only the third son, Bai Moxuan, remained standing in place, motionless.

Bai Mohu looked at him, a hint of playfulness flashing in his eyes.

“Third Brother, what about you? Which side are you standing on?”

Bai Moxuan did not answer.

Bai Moyun also spoke up.

“Third Brother is so slow to state his position; could it be that you look down on us?”

Bai Moyang stared at him and said in a heavy voice.

“Third Brother, you must think clearly.”

“It's not too late to make the right choice now.”

At this moment.

Everyone's gaze fell upon Bai Moxuan.

Upon this, the most favored Legitimate Son of the White Emperor.

Seeing this, Bai Moxuan slowly raised his head and scanned the surroundings.

Then, he suddenly smiled.

That smile was as calm as a breeze.

“Pick a side?”

Bai Moxuan shook his head.

“I don't want to pick a side.”

Bai Mohu narrowed his eyes.

“Then what do you mean?”

Bai Moxuan looked at him and said word by word.

“Because I also want to be the City Lord.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire field fell silent.

Immediately afterward, a burst of laughter erupted.

“Hahaha! Third Brother, have you gone mad?”

Bai Mohu laughed so hard he doubled over.

“You, an unfavored Legitimate Son, have no people and no money. On what basis do you think you can be the City Lord?”

“By using that pretty face of yours to sell your ass?”

Even the usually shrewd Bai Moyun laughed upon hearing this.

It was common knowledge among the brothers that Bai Moxuan was disliked.

“Third Brother, could you be talking in your sleep?”

As the eldest brother, Bai Moyang said with a slight air of seriousness.

“Third Brother, stop messing around.”

“Now is not the time for jokes.”

The other Legitimate Sons also wore mocking smiles.

Bai Moxuan looked at them without saying a word.

He simply raised his hand.

And gave a light wave.

In an instant.

Thirty terrifying Auras appeared out of thin air.

Thirty Soul Transformation Stage experts slowly stepped out from the Void Realm.

Each one exuded a suffocating pressure.

Each face carried a cold killing intent.

They formed a semicircle, surrounding the entire plaza.

On the plaza.

A deathly silence fell in an instant.

Bai Moyang's smile froze on his face.

Bai Mohu's blade nearly slipped from his hand.

Bai Moyun took a step back, his face turning deathly pale.

“This... how is this possible?”

How could an unfavored Concubine's Son suddenly invite thirty Soul Transformation Stage experts?

What kind of concept was this?

Even at the Peak of White Emperor City, the City Lord's Manor and the Four Great Families combined couldn't scrape together so many Soul Transformation Stage experts.

But now, Bai Moxuan had summoned them with a mere wave of his hand.

The level of shock from this scene was no less than the White Emperor being resurrected on the spot.

Hearing the words, Bai Moxuan looked indifferently at the crowd.

At this moment, even his usually steady face couldn't help but reveal a triumphant smile.

Refreshing!

So incredibly refreshing.

This was simply the protagonist of a power fantasy novel coming to life; what followed would naturally be showing off to his heart's content.

“Brothers, do you still think I'm talking in my sleep?”

Bai Moxuan said calmly.

Once these words were out.

No one answered.

The scene fell into an eerie silence for a time.

After a long while.

Bai Moyang seemed to have figured something out. He took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth.

“Third Brother, you... you're colluding with outsiders?”

Bai Moxuan nodded calmly.

“Yes, I have colluded with outsiders.”

Bai Mohu roared in anger.

“Bai Moxuan! Are you crazy?”

“This is the Bai Family's property, and you're letting outsiders come and snatch it?”

Bai Moxuan looked at him, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes.

“Fourth Brother, you're right. This is the Bai Family's property, so it cannot be allowed to be snatched away by anyone.”

“Of course, that includes all of you.”

“So, brothers, today I have decided that White Emperor City can only have one City Lord surnamed Bai.”

His voice wasn't loud, but his Aura was overwhelming.

Bai Moyun's expression shifted, and he suddenly fell to his knees with a thud.

“Third Brother, I was wrong.”

“I support you; I am willing to submit.”

Bai Moyun saw it instantly: Bai Moxuan intended to kill everyone present.

From now on, White Emperor City could only have one person named Bai, and that was Bai Moxuan.

So he decisively backed down.

But it was already too late.

Bai Moxuan looked down at him.

“Eighth Brother, that's not what you were saying just now.”

Bai Moyun's whole body trembled.

“Third Brother, I... I was confused for a moment, I beg you to spare my life!”

Bai Moxuan did not answer.

He looked up at the other Legitimate Sons.

Bai Moyang's face was ashen.

“Bai Moxuan, what exactly do you want?”

Hearing this, Bai Moxuan did not hesitate in the slightest and spoke immediately.

His voice was light, yet it reached everyone's ears clearly.

“Father is dead, and the Bai Family needs a new Family Head.”

“And I am that Family Head.”

He paused.

“As for you all...”

His gaze swept over the crowd.

“Naturally, I must pull up the roots to eliminate the weeds.”

Bai Moyang's pupils shrank abruptly.

“You... you're going to kill us?”

Bai Moxuan did not deny it.

Bai Mohu immediately let out a furious roar.

“Bai Moxuan, you will die a horrible death!”

He lunged forward, slashing his blade at Bai Moxuan.

The blade light was like a rainbow!

But in the next instant.

A figure blocked the way in front of Bai Moxuan.

A Soul Transformation Stage elder reached out and gave a gentle grab.

The blade light shattered.

Bai Mohu was sent flying backward, slamming heavily onto the ground, coughing up a mouthful of fresh blood.

The elder withdrew his hand, expressionless.

“Who else wants to make a move?”

The entire field was silenced.

Bai Moxuan looked at the fallen Bai Mohu, a flash of complexity in his eyes.

But it was only for a moment.

He turned around, his back to the crowd.

“Do it.”

As soon as he finished speaking.

The thirty Soul Transformation Stage experts attacked simultaneously.

In an instant.

Miserable screams rose one after another!

Blood light soared to the sky.

Bai Moyang tried to flee, but his skull was crushed by a palm strike.

Bai Moyun knelt and begged for mercy, but his heart was pierced by a sword.

Bai Mohu struggled to crawl up, but was sliced in two by a blade.

The second, fifth, sixth, seventh...

One by one, they fell.

Fresh blood dyed the plaza red.

Those retainers and elders were even more powerless to resist.

Before those at the Soul Transformation Stage, they were like ants.

Ten breaths.

In just ten breaths.

Not a single living soul remained on the plaza.

Only Bai Moxuan stood alone in the pool of blood.

His robes were stained with a few spots of blood.

But there was no expression whatsoever on his face.

Because he had fantasized about this moment for a very long time.

At this time.

A Soul Transformation Stage elder walked to his side.

“Everything has been cleaned up.”

Bai Moxuan nodded and cupped his hands.

“Many thanks, Seniors.”

“As for the items in the City Lord's Manor, you Seniors may take them as you please.”

Hearing this, the elder waved his hand.

“No need. We will naturally handle the matters the Demon Seed has assigned to us.”

Bai Moxuan took a deep breath and turned to look at the City Lord's Manor.

The gates were still wide open.

Inside was the place where the White Emperor once held sway.

From now on, it belonged to him.

No, on the surface it belonged to him.

But in reality, it belonged to Xiao Ran.

And he was merely the one guarding the door for Xiao Ran.

But he did not regret it.

Because being alive was more important than anything.

...

Not far from the City Lord's Manor.

On the top floor of a tall building.

Xiao Ran stood with his hands behind his back, looking toward the City Lord's Manor.

Elder Ying stood behind him.

“Bai Moxuan's strike was quite ruthless!”

“Those people were all his flesh and blood brothers!”

Xiao Ran nodded with a hint of admiration upon hearing this.

“If he weren't ruthless, how could he be the City Lord?”

He turned and walked down the stairs.

“Let's go, it's time to meet the Three Great Families.”
