Chapter 107: Bi Shao Yu

  Above the road to Jiang City, there were four or five figures flying in the air, rushing towards Jiang City. Along the way, they chatted and laughed, each of them possessing True Martial Realm strength; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to fly through the air. It was unknown which sect these young men belonged to.

  "Brother Bi, your Jiang City has allowed the Bi family to develop so rapidly. In just a few years, Jiang City can already rival any of the four major powers. If this continues for a few more years, I'm afraid the Northern Domain will give rise to a new power, and it will become one of the five major powers," said a young man, gazing out at the vast expanse of Jiang City.

  "Junior Brother has made great progress, but compared to the other four major powers, our By Family still lags behind. However, in recent years, we have indeed developed quite well. What we lack now is foundation. Among the four major powers, which one hasn't been passed down for ten thousand years? Our By Family is only a thousand-year-old family, and there's still a gap between us and those ancient families and sects," replied Senior Brother Bi.

  "Master has ordered us to come out and gain experience, but in fact, there is another purpose. I don't know who discovered that an ancient ruin appeared in the Demon Abyss Forest this time, so he called a few of us to use the excuse of coming out to gain experience to find this ancient ruin. Once we get the treasure inside, our strength will probably increase greatly. These ancient ruins are all left behind by great figures after their death, and there must be countless martial arts and techniques inside. And then there's alchemy, I don't know if there's a Creation Pill inside. If there's a Taoist instrument, we'll be rich!" exclaimed a young man.

  "Lin Shidi, you're also too optimistic. Even if there's a treasure, with our current strength, we can't retrieve it. Moreover, this time, not only did we receive the news, but other families and even some rogue cultivators must have received it as well. They'll all want to get a share of the spoils, so we need to be cautious. The ancient relic in the Demon Abyss Forest will only appear at the end of this month when the lunar tide is weakest, and the demonic energy inside will subside. If we enter before that, the demonic energy will invade us, causing us to go mad. This time, the ancient relic is a battlefield, and countless people will rush into the Demon Abyss Forest. The competition will be fierce."

  "There is still half a month until the end of the month, let's go to Brother Bi's family and stay for a while first. When the day arrives, we will enter the Demon Abyss Forest together."

  "This time we'll have to disturb Master Bi", a disciple said politely;

  "There's no need for such politeness among fellow disciples, just treat this place like your own home and let me know if you need anything," said Bi Shixiong.

  The four of them soon arrived at the city gate of Jiang City and walked towards the largest building in the city, Jiang Fu. They did not choose to fly through the air, as Jiang City still had some ordinary civilians who were postnatal warriors. If a powerful warrior were to fly overhead, it would likely cause a commotion. Therefore, they chose to walk. After half an hour, the four of them saw a majestic and enormous building standing in the center of Jiang City. Two stone Qilin sacred beasts guarded the entrance of Jiang Fu, emitting waves of majesty. Dozens of Lingwu realm disciples patrolled back and forth in front of the gate.

  A group of four people arrived at the gate of Jiang's mansion, several dozen meters away. The more than a dozen disciples guarding the gate saw someone walking in this direction and immediately came up to interrogate them.

  "Who comes here? This is the Jiang Manor's forbidden area. No one is allowed within a mile!" a disciple shouted.

  "How dare you, don't you recognize me? I've only been away for three years and you bunch of slaves don't recognize Young Master anymore!" Bi Shao Yu said in anger.

  At this time, the oldest disciple rushed over and saw the four people opposite him. He quickly knelt down on both legs and shouted loudly: "I don't know if it's Young Master who has returned, I should die! You still haven't kneeled down for me!"

  The other disciples, about a dozen or so people, all knelt down on the ground at the same time, "I deserve to die, I didn't know that Young Master had returned, please punish me, Young Master," they said in unison.

  "Alright, you all retreat now. Order the preparation of some good wine to entertain these few fellow masters. Prepare a few superior guest rooms as well. Any delay will be punishable by death," Bi Shao Yu ordered.

  After finishing speaking, the four of them walked towards Jiang's residence, passing through layers of courtyards, with rare flowers and exotic fruits covering the entire courtyard pavilion, as if it were a paradise on earth.

  "Brother Bi, your family's layout is even more intricate than our Li Huo Sect. Not only does it create a strange and wondrous scenery, but I also see layers of killing arrays set up inside. I'm afraid outsiders will fall into these arrays as soon as they enter," said a young man.

  "Shi Di is right, this is our Bi family's ultimate killing formation, the Big Dipper Formation. Once the Earth Spirit Realm falls into it, everyone will be killed, and even Bi Shao Yu didn't hide anything," he explained to everyone.

  Four people quickly passed through the courtyard and came to a grand hall, where the host and guests sat down. The maids had already served fragrant tea, as well as various wines, fresh fruits, and other refreshments.

  "Someone come, go call Second Young Master Shao Qing over, tell him to come and pay his respects to these few senior brothers," said Bi Shao Yu, who was sitting in the main seat.

  Several servants looked at each other, "Replying to Young Master, Second Young Master has not returned since he went to Huang City half a month ago. Second Young Master is not in the mansion now," one of the servants said.

  "How come you're not back yet, I sent him a message before I left, telling us to return today, he also agreed to return, is something wrong, hurry up and say it out, otherwise, the family rules will be waiting for you", Bi Shaoyu shouted from the main seat.

  The little ones didn't know, and several servants were so frightened that they quickly knelt down.

  "Go and get Li Guanjia, I have something to ask him. I'll ask him myself what's going on. It's been three years since I came back, it's impossible for my second brother not to come back. Go quickly!" Bi Shaoyu urged.

  Several servants quickly retreated, as if they had been pardoned, hastily retreating from the hall, not daring to breathe a single deep breath, fearing that they would provoke this young master.

  A moment of fragrance had passed, and at this time a voice came from outside the hall, "I don't know if Master has returned, Li Tian is guilty, please forgive him." A tall figure walked in.

  "Uncle Li, don't be polite, I've never treated you as an inferior. If it weren't for your management of family affairs over the years, how could the Bi family have developed so quickly? I came to ask you, do you know why Shaoying hasn't returned yet?" asked Shaoyu.

  "Tell the eldest young master, the second young master might have been delayed on his journey and will probably return in a few days. If he finds out that the eldest young master has returned, the second young master will definitely be delighted," said Li Tian.

  "That's good. Second Brother is quite playful, but I only have this one brother, so let him be. When he comes back, tell him to come see me at once," said Bi Shao Yu.

  At the moment Bi Shao Yu finished speaking, a bright light flew towards Butler Li Tian's hand, transmitting a message from afar. Butler Li's face changed color for a moment, but quickly recovered, however, it was still discovered by Shao Yu.

  "Uncle Li, who sent you the thousand-mile transmission? Was it Shao Qing? Can you open it and take a look? I also miss my second brother very much," said Bi Shao Yu.

  Li Tian's face showed a difficult expression, Young Master, this matter is probably not going to work, Li Tian replied.

  "Is there something that can't be seen? Am I not a member of this family? Everyone present is my fellow disciple and brother, what's there to hide? Bring it out! Has something happened to Young Master?" Bi Shao Yu said in anger.

  Li Tian glanced at Shao Yu, it seemed he couldn't hide it anymore.

  "Master, you must prepare yourself mentally," said Li Tian, as he scattered the light ball in his hand, and suddenly a figure appeared, expressionless and mouth open.

  "Li Tian, I've already investigated the matter. It's possible that Shaoying's death was caused by a mastermind. I also found out about the young man who had a conflict with Shaoying, his name is Chen Xuan. He's currently an inner disciple of Danxuan Gate and has reached the late stage of Lingwu. However, several core disciples seem to have disappeared, and no matter how long I've investigated, I couldn't find any news about them. I've recorded Chen Xuan's portrait on this transmission symbol, which will automatically appear later. Now, I'm waiting for an opportunity. As soon as Chen Xuan appears, I'll kill him myself, even if he wasn't the one who killed Shaoying. It's a consolation to Shaoying either way."

  This transmission talisman seems to have no thinking ability, it just says what it should say step by step, and finally presents a head portrait, which is exactly Chen Xuan.

  "After reading this message, Shaoyu's face turned gloomy and terrifying. Can Uncle Li tell me what's going on now?"
