Niantao Village is located two kilometers away from the village entrance.

On a large, leafy tree.

Bai Yun'an sat alone on the trunk of a large tree. It was a good spot, offering a clear view of the distance.

As long as he doesn't chatter incoherently or shake the tree wildly, no one will be able to spot him.

Bai Yun'an wasn't in a hurry. He had been carrying a bamboo basket on his way here and had met many of the village women.

He also said that he came out to pick wild vegetables.

Once one person in the village knows, it means everyone knows, and Wang Dachui's family won't come looking for him, so there's no need to worry.

So all he has to do is lie here and wait until it's almost lunchtime before heading back.

Bai Yun'an didn't actually know if anyone would come to Zhenxiulou today, or if they would come in the evening again.

But he likes to take the initiative when doing things.

If the people from Zhenxiulou come during the day, that would be the best.

Time passed slowly, and seeing that few people were passing by on the country road, it was almost time to eat.

"I guess they're not coming."

Bai Yun'an was just about to climb down to go back to the village for a meal when he stood on the high ground and glanced around.

He then saw a group of small black dots appearing far along the country dirt road.

Bai Yun'an immediately dismissed the idea of ​​going down.

He needed to confirm first whether they were from Zhenxiulou.

As the group approached, Bai Yun'an smiled.

Isn't this the kind person who climbed over the wall yesterday to help him make bitter melon juice?

Meanwhile, Wang Maquan and the others were still chatting and laughing.

"We'll get revenge for you, brothers!"

"Quan'er, are you stupid? How could that penniless guy have such great abilities!"

"Watch us brothers drag that kid out and give him a good beating today. You're not scared, are you?"

Faced with the teasing provocations from his brothers, Wang Maquan, who was genuinely scared and somewhat apprehensive before, suddenly became fearless after being provoked.

Wang Maquan sneered: "Afraid? The first thing I'll do when I find that kid is pin him down and slap him hard!"

The people around him laughed: "Alright! The brothers are watching! Go easy on him, he's still a kid!"

Bai Yun'an, who was sitting in the tree, also smiled, but the smile disappeared a second later.

Bai Yun'an's expression was sharp, his eyes filled with contempt for scum, and his lightning-based supernatural power gathered in his hands.

In an instant, thunder roared out of nowhere, and then a bolt of dark purple lightning struck around the group of people.

This lightning-based superpower is nothing compared to what it was like in the apocalypse.

But at this moment, Bai Yun'an's purpose was not to kill, but to issue a warning.

It's not that I don't want to kill, it's that the system won't allow it.

System: [You have three lightning-type ability licenses remaining, each at 5% strength.]

Bai Yun'an: [Understood.]

He lay silently on the tree, enduring the chaotic electric current surging through his body. Ultimately, his body couldn't withstand the lightning-based power; the pain was excruciating.

Wang Maquan was completely stunned by the sudden lightning strike.

Not only him, but even Kang An's "worldly" bodyguard was terrified.

"This, this, this..."

Wang Maquan swallowed hard, and as if in a dream, he looked up at the sun in the sky.

Wait a minute! The sun is shining brightly here!

Suddenly, a ring of dark purple lightning appeared, and it seemed to have been aimed directly at them.

"It must be that family's doing! It definitely is!"

In a panic, Wang Maquan recalled what had happened the night before.

His body felt like it was being electrocuted, and he also felt a suffocating sensation as a strange child and something was violently stuffed into his mouth.

Wang Maquan, his legs shaking, shakily got up, turned around and ran away.

It was as if he had forgotten that just moments before, he had been laughing and making grand pronouncements about his "ambitious plans."

Kang An's guard felt the tingling sensation of being struck by lightning, and looking at Wang Maquan who seemed to be stunned, he was also a little scared.

Once a person has the intention to retreat, they will find countless reasons and excuses not to move forward.

Bai Yun'an shook his head slightly, quietly climbed down the tree, and turned and walked gracefully into the village.

It's time to go home for dinner.

Otherwise, I'll easily get scolded when my parents come back.

Although……

He wasn't too afraid of his parents, but he still needed to build up his sister's favorability, so he had to be a harmless good boy at home.

Wang Maquan and others got into a dispute.

Kang An's bodyguard: "Master instructed us to teach the Bai family a lesson!"

"I'm not going. At worst, I'll just return the payment to Master Kang! The Bai family is up to something!!!"

Bai Yunqi, who had just rushed over after noticing unusual energy fluctuations here: ?

Wait a minute, whose family should we teach a lesson to?

Bai Yunqi went out to look for his third brother after discovering that he hadn't returned from taking a dump.

But when I told my aunts that my third brother had gone to find wild vegetables with a bamboo basket on his back, I found out that he had gone to find wild vegetables.

As soon as he reached the vicinity of the village entrance, he sensed an unusual energy fluctuation, as well as a faint spiritual energy fluctuation, so he went over to take a look.

I never expected this!

What an amazing sight!

This group of people...

Bai Yunqi raised an eyebrow: Master Kang?

So, this is the person from Zhenxiulou who came to cause trouble for his family?

Bai Yunqi felt no more burden in his heart in an instant.

His gaze fell on Kang An's guards and Wang Maquan.

Both of them had spiritual energy fluctuations, especially Kang An's bodyguard, who probably had a fine jade at his waist!

Bai Yunqi mobilized the last bit of spiritual power in his body and once again cast a useless hand seal.

The Illusionary Mist Technique still has the effect of causing battle damage.

But for him, it was really useful.

Yawning, Bai Yunqi strode towards where Wang Maquan and the others were.

This Illusionary Mist Technique can trap people in a mesmerizing illusionary mist, causing them to be defeated without a fight due to the influence of their emotions and vision. If the caster is strong enough, the illusionary mist of this technique can even spread for hundreds of miles.

Right now, there's only a small patch of white mist, which serves to block the view. It's so dark you can't see your hand in front of your face; you can't see anything at all.

Wang Maquan felt as if his chest had been suddenly ripped open, and then his arms felt empty.

"My gold!" he suddenly realized, but he couldn't see anything and didn't know who had done it.

Konoe felt something touch his waist, and he instinctively followed the touch.

Then he felt an emptiness at his waist; the jade pendant that his master had temporarily placed there had disappeared.

Bai Yunqi took the jade pendant and gold, stuffed them contentedly into his pocket, and then picked up the large rock at his feet.
