Chapter 100 98- Bai Zhou’s Unwillingness



When Bai Zhou heard the mention of wiping out his branch family, his body shook and he immediately yelled, “NO!! Why should my family be punished for my actions!! His highness I implore you to be forgiving towards my family, they have done nothing wrong!!”

“Shut the fuck up!! You were the one who brought this disaster to our Bai Clan, if your family is implicated it was because of you!!”

Bai Luo lost his cool and screamed furiously at Bai Zhou. One can understand his anger, right now, the clan had a guillotine hanging over their necks. If he didn’t divert it to one of his limbs or rather a finger, given that Bai Zhou was only one side branch from several dozens, his entire clan would suffer because of that one finger.

Seeing the reaction of the Bai Clan Patriarch Bai Zhou’s heart sank, and a feeling of regret was starting to take place in his heart.

Had he known his Clan Patriarch would be willing to sacrifice his family, he would have never agreed to that mysterious man’s plans.

Gripping the silver jade slip in his palm, Bai Zhou had many thoughts running through his head.

The Emperor’s voice sounded again.

“Shen’er, are you alright?”

Xi Shen who was already standing up watching the events unfold was taken aback that his father would address him in this situation.

Xi Shen then responded, “Yes father, I’m fine.”

Seeing how concerned the Emperor was to Xi Shen, Bai Zhou’s heart was racing uncontrollably, and a mix of emotions flashed past his eyes.

‘This wasn’t how that masked man described the second prince’s relationship with his father. He said he was dismissive of him because he couldn’t cultivate. Did he lie to me so I would agree to his plans? Goddammit!’

After the Emperor heard his son’s response he then said, “That’s good. You were the one that was hurt, I’ll let you decide on the course of action.”

When Bai Luo and the Bai Clan members heard the Emperor’s words, it reassured the speculation that people had regarding the Emperor’s treatment of Xi Shen. Despite the second prince being unable to cultivate the emperor was extremely doting on him, even more so than the Crown Prince.

When Xi Shen heard his father’s words, he thought for a moment, before he turned to Bai Zhou and asked, “Where are the coffins of my subordinate\'s family?”

Bai Zhou stared at Xi Shen for a moment, before he waved his hand and five black coffins appeared in the air before they floated down to the ground.

Fei Yin quickly approached one of the coffins and lifted the lid.

Empty.

Fei Yin’s body shook, and his eyes started to water, but he still went over to the other coffins and opened them one by one.

Each of them was empty, and by the time Fei Yin open the last one his eyes were completely bloodshot.

When he saw the last one was empty too his body became slack and he fell to the floor.

Seeing this scene Yang Su and Fang Chen didn’t know how to react.

If the coffins Bai Zhou produced were empty, then did that mean his family\'s bodies were gone?

Xi Shen looked back to Bai Zhou and asked, “Why are they empty?”

Bai Zhou remained silent with a frown on his face. Seeing that he wasn’t answering, Xi Shen let out a sigh as he guessed Bai Lu must have ordered Fei Yin’s family to be got rid of either on their way here or worst before they even left the Academy.

Xi Shen turned to a sobbing Fei Yin and said, “Fei Yin, do you remember your oath back in the Academy? What do you want to do? If you want to resolve the grudge in your heart by cutting off Bai Lu’s bloodline, I’ll have my father do it.”

Xi Shen said that with an extremely placid expression on his face. It was almost terrifying how calm he was talking about the extermination of someone’s bloodline.

Bai Zhou’s body trembled and his eyes became extremely bloodshot.

Fei Yin upon hearing Xi Shen’s words shook his head and said, “It’s not my place to decide their fates. When I get back to the Academy I’m going to challenge Bai Lu to a life and death match. Only with his death can my grudge be resolved, no one else.”

Xi Shen nodded his head at Fei Yin’s words before he pointed at Bai Zhou and said, “Father, I want him dead.”

Xi Shen said that as if he was in a store asking his father for a brand new toy.

“Okay.” the Emperor’s response came as if he was a doting father who would give his son anything he asked for.

Immediately after, a golden finger appeared out of the void and tap Bai Zhou’s forehead.

Bai Zhou’s body then began to disintegrate from his legs upwards.

However, his expression was calm, as he had accomplished his goal. Now his family bloodline will become the new main family of the Bai Clan with that mysterious man’s support.

But Xi Shen’s next words caused his expression to change.

“And cripple everyone in his side branch of the family’s cultivation base, least someone tries to take revenge on my subordinate.”

“Done.”

The Emperor said, which was immediately followed by screams coming from several places in the Bai Clan. But it wasn’t just here, everywhere on the Maple Continent in the different Academies, Bai Clan member\'s from Bai Zhou\'s bloodline had their cultivations crippled.

The only person who remained was Bai Lu in the Celestial Academy.

Bai Zhou suddenly felt that everything he did was meaningless. He wondered if he was only a puppet dancing to someone else’s tune.

His body was already 2/3 disintegrated with only his upper torso and head remaining, but Bai Zhou\'s eyes suddenly flash with unwillingness. He began to squeeze the silver jade in his hands to destroy it, but as soon as the strange power that was disintegrating his body touched it, the silver jade slip absorbed a bit of it, and then vanished from his palm.

Bai Zhou\'s heart immediately drop, but he was still unwilling to be used like this and have that man get away after he got nothing in return.

With the last of his strength, Bai Zhou sent a message to Xi Shen.

‘Second prince, I was only a puppet for someone. He was going to make my side branch of the family become the main family, in exchange I-I would ugh…’

Xi Shen was taken aback when he heard Bai Zhou’s Spiritual Message, but hearing his words his expression turn serious. However, the message was cut off before Bai Zhou could tell him what he was supposed to do.

Xi Shen suddenly cursed in his heart.

He didn’t know why but he felt like what Bai Zhou was about to say was extremely important. Xi Shen didn’t know why Bai Zhou would go out of his way to tell him, but he guessed he didn’t want to let the person responsible for his family’s disaster get away.

‘But you shitty bastard couldn’t even finish what you were going to say, why tell me in the first place then?’

Xi Shen watched as Bai Zhou completely disintegrated, and shook his head.

Xi Shen then heard his father’s voice in his mind, ‘Shen’er, remember that your birthday is coming up. Try not to cause so much trouble until then.’

‘Huh? Old man who’s causing trouble, it wasn’t my fault I was attacked.’

Xi Shen heard his father chuckle at his words before he sensed his presence left his mind.

In the sky, the black wormhole that covered the entire Bai Clan slowly shrank, returning the original Laws that were pushed away.

Seeing this, Bai Luo let out a sigh of relief.

He then turned his attention to where Xi Shen was and he happened to see his disgrace of a son approaching the guest Pavilions.

“Was he the one who brought the second prince here? That brat, he brought another calamity magnet with him back home and now the misfortune of our Bai Clan doubled, NO! tripled! I need to get both of them to leave, or else another expert might appear from out of nowhere saying someone from our Bai Clan offended them. I don’t want that prince here either, I heard that he carries around two Void Beasts. If he found out about our marriage alliance with the Lin Clan, he would tattle to his father, and the last thing the Li Clan wants is for any of the Major Clans to team up.”

Bai Lu\'s eyes narrowed as he made his way over to the Guest Pavilion that was quite some distance away, about one or two kilometers. But for someone of his cultivation -the mid Soul Transformation Realm- it might as well be one step away.

In no time reach the guest pavilions after literally one step.

At the guest Pavilions, Bai Xiaofung approached the group with a confused expression.

Yang Su upon seeing Bai Xiaofung, frowned and asked, “Brother Bai Xiaofung, where were you all this time? Did you perhaps forget what you left to do?”

Fang Chen and Fei Yin were frowning as well because they were suspicious of Bai Xiaofung since he only return after Bai Zhou had tried to kill Fei Yin but instead attack Xi Shen.

Did the Bai Clan perhaps know Bai Zhou’s intentions and planned this situation? But that theory has a flaw, why would the Bai Clan want to cause trouble for Xi Shen and subsequently the Li Royal Family.

As of this moment, Yang Su and the rest didn’t know what was going on.

Bai Xiaofung upon hearing Yang Su’s words had the confusion on his face deepen, before he then said, “I-I think so.”
