After breakfast, everyone sat in the center of the main hall, but the atmosphere was no longer joyful, but rather somber.
The topic of conversation shifted from Bai Qiushui's return to the upcoming trip to the Bai family.
In this light, Bai Qiushui's return at this time could be considered a twist of fate.
After all, Bai Qiushui's position in the Bai family had not been that important before. Otherwise, she might not have chosen Fang Junxue, who was considered an outcast, and left the Bai family.
Now, Bai Qiushui couldn't help but recall the past, feeling as if it were a lifetime ago, finally sighing softly.
The appearance of one person had changed everything.
She gently turned her gaze, looking at the young man beside her with tenderness. Everything was so beautiful, yet so real.
That was enough.
Ye Ming seemed to feel her gaze and reached behind him, his hand encompassing her slender waist, as delicate as a willow branch.
Bai Qiushui's pretty face blushed again, and she lowered her head, remaining silent.
The other sisters also smiled without speaking.
"Alright! It's time to talk about important matters!"
Ye Ming looked at the women and said with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken, the Bai family should have set up a grand formation waiting for us. What do you all think?"
To this, Fang Junxue replied with only four words.
"Play along with their plan!"
This was her strategy.
"Junxue! You mean..."
Ji Hongying's beautiful eyes flashed with a sharp glint, and a smile curved her lips.
"They just want me to walk into their trap, so let's give them what they want!" Fang Junxue looked at Ye Ming and smiled charmingly, "They don't know about your return yet, do they?"
"Of course!"
Ye Ming nodded.
He had used a spatial portal to return. The Bai family's informants in Gaoqiao Kingdom had focused all their attention on flight information, so how could they know that Ye Ming had already returned to China?
Of course!
It wasn't their fault.
After all, such a method of spatial transmission was beyond their comprehension.
"Then, for this trip to the Bai family, you will remain in the shadows!"
Fang Junxue displayed absolute confidence and continued, "Unless the other party deploys a Xiantian realm expert, we sisters will handle everything else!"
The implication was that below the Xiantian realm, they were invincible.
"Alright! I'll listen to you!"
Ye Ming had no doubts about Fang Junxue's capabilities and strength.
Since she dared to say this, she was absolutely sure.
After discussing some details, Fang Junxue looked at Dorisa, "Dorisa! After we leave, Qianxue Group cannot be without a leader, so I'll have to trouble you to stay!"
Fang Junxue would not give the other party any opportunity to exploit.
"Yes! I understand!"
Dorisa nodded heavily, "Not only Qianxue Group, but Xiao Ain also cannot have any accidents."
She had not forgotten about Qin Shuang monitoring Xiao Ain before.
Seeing Dorisa mention Xiao Ain, Ye Ming also thought of Qin Shuang and asked Ji Hongying, "By the way! Hongying, how is Miss Qin Shuang?"
He hadn't seen the "Celestial Apostle" since he returned this morning.
Of course!
She wasn't anymore.
"She's still unconscious!" Ji Hongying said gravely, "But everything is normal, and she should wake up soon!"
"That's good!"
Ye Ming was relieved.
However, the person behind controlling Qin Shuang was still on his kill list.
How dare they target Xiao Ain! He would never let them go.
"This time, the Bai family has not only gathered many ancient martial arts sects, but there are also shadows of the immortal path behind them. Junxue, you must not be careless."
Ye Ming couldn't help but remind her in the end.
This trip to the Bai family was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface.
"I know, don't worry!"
Fang Junxue gave him a reassuring look, blinked her eyes, and smiled mysteriously, "If the Bai family has their helpers, don't we have ours?"
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ming knew there was more to it.
"Junxue! You didn't contact Ying, did you?"
This was the first thing Ye Ming thought of.
"Just the Bai family, do you think it's necessary to alarm Brother Ying?" Fang Junxue retorted.
"Uh!"
Ye Ming thought again, could it be Leng Qianqiu?
But then he shook his head. The underground forces led by Leng Qianqiu, in terms of influence, were even greater than Ying Qianshi, so it shouldn't be them either.
Then the question arose, who were the helpers Fang Junxue was referring to?
"Alright! You don't need to guess!"
Fang Junxue said with a smile, "This is also a surprise for you!"
"Okay!"
Since it had come to this, Ye Ming was too lazy to guess anymore.
Leaving a little mystery was also good.
"Hongying, for this trip to the Bai family, Lin Fengxuan will most likely be present. You need to be mentally prepared!"
Fang Junxue gave Ji Hongying a questioning look.
After all, Lin Fengxuan was her adoptive father. Once the conflict intensified, everything would be uncontrollable.
Therefore, Fang Junxue said this.
"Don't worry!"
Ji Hongying's eyes were cold and stern, and she said indifferently, "When he treated me as a tool, there was no longer any relationship between us."
She had already made all the necessary preparations.
The grudges that needed to be settled must be settled.
"Good! I believe you can do it!"
Fang Junxue knew very well that Lin Fengxuan was the obstacle in Ji Hongying's path. Once this enmity was resolved, her immortal path would be smooth and unhindered.
"Since we're all ready, let's go!"
Ye Ming stood up, looked at the women, and said with a smile, "With me in the shadows, you can do as you please!"
"Mhm!"
Fang Junxue responded with a smile.
"It's finally our turn to play!"
Nangong Qianyu was already eager to try.
She was no longer the weakling she used to be. This trip to the Bai family would surely shock many people.
At the same time, it would declare to the world.
How terrifying the group of women behind Ye Ming were.
...
At the same time, in the provincial capital of Feng Province.
The Bai Family Hall.
"Feng Lang, who are these people?"
At this moment, all the core disciples of the Bai family were gathered here. Their gazes were all focused behind a young man.
This young man was the eldest son of the Bai family, Bai Fenglang.
Behind him stood three masked figures, each exuding a hidden aura that made people feel oppressed, making the atmosphere in the hall exceptionally heavy.
Most people dared not breathe deeply.
Bai Tai, the patriarch of the Bai family, sat in the high seat, his cloudy eyes fixed on Bai Fenglang. Deep within his pupils, a trace of worry was hidden.
He had not met the three people behind Bai Fenglang.
"Everyone, please rest assured, these are guests I've invited!"
Bai Fenglang paid no attention to the feelings of others, instead smiling somewhat sinisterly, sending a chill down their spines.
