When Bai Cang saw Xu Yang again, he was kneeling in front of the Golden Gate Jade Lock.
His robes were filthy and smelly, he carried several thorny branches on his back, and he looked so haggard that he seemed to be on his deathbed.
But when he saw Bai Cang descend from the clouds, his eyes shone with an unprecedented brilliance.
"Disciple Xu Yang begs Master Bai to spare the lives of my Xu family!"
A roar, sharp and hoarse, shook the heavens.
Bai Cang remained calm, even scratching his ear: Why are you yelling so loudly? Are you trying to scare me to death?
After letting out a roar, Xu Yang seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud.
But seeing the flickering figure in front of the golden gate and jade lock, and the curious and prying eyes from afar, he felt as if he had been granted a pardon and revealed a relieved smile.
Seeing this, Bai Cang asked curiously, "Actually, I'm very curious: Just how much benefit did others give you that made you willing to wipe out your entire family?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yang's face twitched, but he showed no intention of speaking further and simply closed his eyes.
Once he's splashed that bucket of dirty water on him, his task is considered complete.
He was neither willing nor daring to think about what would happen next.
Right now, all he wants is to die quickly!
"I bet you're not far from death, are you?"
Bai Cang clicked his tongue in amazement, but his mindset and expression were surprisingly calm. "You don't actually think you can just die and be done with it, do you?"
"Do you think I'll let you die a quick death? And will your soul find peace after you die?"
At this point, Bai Cang said meaningfully, "For cultivators like us, especially for our Heshan Sect, death is far from liberation. The true hell of inferno only begins from the moment you die."
"With my current abilities, I can still make you suffer for another thirty to fifty years after your death. As my cultivation level increases, this period will continue to be extended. Do you still want to die now?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yang suddenly opened his eyes, staring intently at Bai Cang, a hint of fear flashing deep in his eyes.
But he still gritted his teeth and didn't speak. He simply stopped the series of smooth little moves he had been making, such as crushing his tooth pouch, swallowing the poison, severing his heart meridian, and destroying his consciousness.
Seeing this scene.
Bai Cang simply smiled and continued casually, "Junior Brother Yu, I suspect that someone from the Xu family has already fled incognito, and some may even be under the protection of someone he believes will never compromise with me and whom I cannot do anything about."
Do you think I guessed right?!
Yu Canghai laughed and said, "The thirteen members of the Xu family who fled, including seven who are hiding their identities and two who are under the protection of someone, are all under our control."
"I'll send you the list shortly!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yang's expression changed drastically. His eyes, blazing with fury, stared intently at Yu Canghai, as if he wanted to devour him whole.
Seeing this, Yu Canghai turned his head away, silently thinking to himself, "What the hell is the use of you looking at me? I'm in a precarious situation myself. Do you think I willingly became a traitor?"
Bai Cang smiled calmly and said, "Why are you looking at Junior Brother Yu? You don't actually think that without Junior Brother Yu, I can't do anything to you, do you?"
Before he could finish speaking, Bai Cang simply brandished his True Inheritance Token and asked, "Where are the wandering ghosts and gods?"
At a command, a cold wind howled, lead pellets floated in the air, and ghosts and gods appeared.
"Xu Tianci, the Little God of the Taiyin Palace, pays his respects to the Little Master."
A golden-armored divine general appeared and bowed to Bai Cang in mid-air, saying, "Please give your orders, young master!"
"It's nothing, just saying hello."
Bai Cang casually tossed a bottle of Xuan Yin Ghostly Fiend over, "Go down."
The golden-armored general grinned, glared fiercely at Xu Yang, and then vanished in a gust of yin wind.
There's no way around it, this job is too easy, it's almost embarrassing to accept "payment".
It only showed its face twice and was able to obtain a bottle of Xuan Yin Ghostly Fiend. Anyone who dares to say that "Little Master" is stingy will have their mouth torn apart.
Shang Tianyang: ? ? ?
"Please, Master Bai, give me another chance!"
Seeing this scene.
Xu Yang was utterly horrified. He had been limp and exhausted, but suddenly burst forth with astonishing strength, kowtowing repeatedly as if pounding garlic. "I was also coerced. I have absolutely no ill will towards the true master. I beg the true master to see the truth; it was all Li..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Bai Cang waved his hand to interrupt him, saying, "I don't care who instructed you, but I can tell you clearly: the entire Xu family, no matter how many people there are, will only face death."
"The only difference is: whether the debt is wiped out upon death, or whether the soul is extracted, refined, and tortured for hundreds or thousands of years."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yang felt utterly devastated, as if all his strength had been drained away, leaving him completely limp and lifeless.
Seeing this, Bai Cang laughed and said, "But who told me that I, the true master, am kind-hearted? I'll let you die knowing why."
Xu Yang struggled to his feet and kowtowed, saying, "I humbly request your true teachings!"
To be honest, he didn't want to "die knowing why."
But he was even more afraid that he would die without "understanding" what happened, and even more afraid that his entire family would become "brothers" on the "Wraith Banner".
So he had no choice but to play the straight man, just hoping for a quick and painless death!
When the wandering spirits appeared, Xu Yang no longer harbored any illusions.
"I ask you: how many people are in the family of that young Taoist boy on duty?" Bai Cang asked calmly.
Xu Yang was weak and listless, but he had to force himself to stay awake and said, "There are three people in total."
Bai Cang clapped his hands. "See? Didn't I give you a chance?"
"I asked you to make an example of someone, but you insisted on becoming that chicken yourself. Can you blame me for that?"
Xu Yang used his name to carry out a large-scale purge, but Bai Cang didn't really care. At most, he would just sentence him to death.
More than anything, they wanted to use this opportunity to "stir up trouble" by talking to Xu Yang.
But Xu Yang insisted on doing something drastic and even tried to take the opportunity to smear him.
How could Bai Cang let him succeed? How could he not grant his wish for a "family tree elimination game"?
The one who slaughtered the entire Xu family was not "Bai Da Zhen Chuan" (a disciple of Bai Da), but Xu Yang!
Upon hearing these words, Xu Yang was powerless to struggle any further.
This conversation is not important; what is important is that with Yu Canghai spreading the word on his behalf and the Ghost Gods Bureau acting as his lackeys, public opinion will never develop according to his calculations. Instead, Bai Cang will say whatever he wants.
So he simply stopped struggling!
But Bai Cang did not let him go. Killing someone is not as bad as destroying their spirit. "But don't worry, you are not worthy of getting Benzhen's hands dirty."
"Someone else will deal with your Xu family; there might even be a surprise!"
Before he could finish speaking...
A figure flew over from a distance.
Xu Yang's eyes lit up immediately upon seeing it.
But the next second, he roared like an angry lion!
