Shortly after Bai Zhaoxi left, a group of people appeared in the alley. Several dark figures looked at the drunks, slashed their necks, and set the alley on fire before leaving.
The system saw all of this. Just when it thought Bai Chaoxi had escaped, the group of people rushed over here quickly and accurately, as if they had installed a positioning system on Bai Chaoxi.
Sure enough, not long after Bai Chaoxi walked out of the city, he was caught up by the group of people.
Yan Baibai's head and face were covered by Bai Chaoxi. He held Yan Baibai in his arms, and it was hard not to be noticed by the group of people who were surrounding him.
"What do you want to do!" Bai Chaoxi looked coldly at the leader on the opposite side.
"Either cripple your arms or die. You choose one!" the leader said, his eyes fixed on Bai Zhaoxi's arms. He sneered and said with a somewhat contemptuous tone, "They say you are a clean person, but it seems that's just a rumor."
After hearing that person's voice, Bai Chaoxi had already guessed the identity of the person opposite him: a young man from a prominent family, a man who was determined to obtain the position of personal attendant of the Saint Nian Yue - Bai Qi.
The Saint of Years and Months has been in office for many years, but only started to choose her own personal attendant this year. In the selection in the west of the city, only Bai Chaoxi and Bai Qi were qualified to run for the election.
"You went to so much trouble to set these traps for me just to prevent me from participating in the selection of the Holy Maiden's personal attendant?" Bai Chaoxi asked directly.
"Only a chosen one like me is worthy of being by the side of the Saint." Bai Qi's voice was flat, as if stating a fact: "You also know that my grandmother was once a Saint."
After being replaced, a Saint usually has two choices: to withdraw from the world, or to marry. The Saint usually marries her personal attendant, as this is the man she has had the most contact with in her life.
Of course, the vast majority of saints chose to retreat from the world, with only a small number choosing to marry. The saint's talent was obvious, those around her were blessed with her luck, and her descendants inherited her bloodline. Even if the saint's personal attendant was an ordinary person with nothing, they would still become a powerful family.
Most of the top families on the Cang Continent are descendants of the Saint. As the position of waiter for the Saint has become increasingly sought after, most of them are taken up by the aristocratic families.
The final choice of the waiter still lies with the saint herself. What everyone has to do now is to try their best to appear in front of the saint and be qualified to be chosen.
When the system saw the young man from the noble family opposite, it quickly recognized him. This person was the one it saw on the water curtain before it and Yan Baibai came out. He was the young man from the noble family who took the lead in hunting down Bai Chaoxi after the sacrifice of the Saint, who was the junior sister of the Tiandao Sect.
Now everything makes sense. Why would a noble family force Bai Chaoxi into a desperate situation? I think there is this connection.
"Your great-grandmother probably doesn't know about your dirty tricks now, right?" Bai Zhaoxi sneered without even frowning.
"As long as you die, she will never know." Bai Qi's tone instantly turned cold, and then he shouted to the people around him: "What are you waiting for? Kill him!"
The two groups soon started fighting with each other. Even though Bai Chaoxi was holding a "burden" in his arms, he still couldn't let the other side gain the upper hand.
Bai Qi, who crossed his arms in front of his chest and was ready to watch his opponent's defeat, soon discovered that something was wrong with the momentum. He knew that Bai Chaoxi was strong, but what he didn't expect was that his strength would be so strong!
Bai Qi saw Bai Chaoxi's strength clearly, and now he has alerted the enemy. Bai Qi knows that today is his last chance to kill Bai Chaoxi.
Bai Qi soon joined the battle. Bai Qi was a candidate for the Saint's personal attendant, so he was quite capable. With his joining, Bai Chaoxi quickly fell into a disadvantage, and his injuries began to increase.
roar--
Just when Bai Chaoxi was about to collapse, a roar suddenly came from not far away in the forest, followed by the sound of falling trees, and everyone's feet began to tremble slightly.
"Oh no, the devil-horned beast has gone crazy!" One of the besiegers spoke quickly and urgently.
"Humph, God is really helping me!"
As Bai Qi spoke, he sprinkled powder on Bai Chaoxi's body, then called on his subordinates to leave quickly. Even after they left, the sound still reached Bai Chaoxi's ears.
"This is beast-luring powder. If you dare to bring them into the city, you will lose your eligibility to run for election. Think about it yourself!"
As soon as the sound disappeared, Bai Chaoxi saw the huge monster suddenly appear. Without thinking too much, Bai Chaoxi hugged Yan Baibai and quickly led the crazy beast to the far end of the city.
Not long after, Bai Chaoxi was forced to the top of the cliff, and Yan Baibai happened to wake up at this moment. It took Yan Baibai a few seconds to sort out what happened before she fainted. Coupled with the darkness in front of her eyes, it was hard for her not to think that the person holding her was a bad person.
"You're finally awake." Bai Chaoxi also noticed Yan Baibai's abnormality. In order to avoid being misunderstood by Pingbai, he took the initiative to speak: "How do you feel? Do you have any strength?"
Yan Baibai raised his hand to pull away the black cloth on his face. He quickly saw the current situation clearly and realized that this person was not a bad person. Moreover... he was almost attached to his heart. His heartbeat also accelerated violently at an inappropriate time.
Yan Baibai's whole face turned red in an instant, partly because of her inexplicably accelerated heartbeat, and partly because of her infatuated behavior that didn't care about the occasion.
