Chapter 1589: Bi Luochun Enters Longshe

Luotian White Snake Clan.

Bai Qingshuang stared into the distance; that direction was exactly where Longshe Shan lay.

Beside her stood Bai Xinlan, also staring toward Longshe Shan; the two stood together in silence, a tacit understanding forming between them.

After a incense stick burned, Bai Qingshuang asked, "Have you decided? Are you sure about the marriage alliance? You are the head of our Luotian White Snake Clan; if you marry that boy, it will benefit him."

"If you have taken a liking to him, this Ancestor will not block you; on the contrary, I will fully support you."

Bai Xinlan tangled, "To be honest, I'm not very clear; I don't even know myself."

She didn't want to marry Bai Meng, nor did she want the master and disciple to give Qinglong Daoist an easy win; that person had a truly huge appetite and was genuinely… greedy, aiming to capture both of them and then seize the Luotian White Snake Clan.

She was unwilling to do so and did not wish to become… someone's subordinate.

"He truly is your benefactor, Xinlan, and from my calculations, this youth is a key figure for our rise; in the future, you and he will inevitably be bound together, no escaping."

"A member of the Azure Dragon Clan, a strange person; he also carries secrets. Think it through—whatever you do, this Ancestor will support you."

Bai Xinlan grew more conflicted; it wasn't that she didn't want to, but that she couldn't do it.

Regarding this matter, Bai Meng had no opinion, obeying her orders; she seemed indecisive, but in fact Bai Meng liked that person. She would refuse others, but he—she would not refuse.

Qinglong Daoist was excellent in every way, far better than the others in Mangshan Demon Palace, but…

She didn't want to give Qinglong Daoist such an easy win; the whole clan would become his, wouldn't it?

"Ancestor, must our Luotian White Snake Clan cling to others?" Bai Xinlan lifted her head, eyes filled with resentment.

Luotian Ancestor Bai Qingshuang shook her head: "Not necessarily. You know our Luotian White Snake Clan isn't strong, indeed, very weak."

"We fare decently in the Mangshan Mountain Range, but out there, in the Central Lands, we are nothing."

"Even this Ancestor in the Tribulation Realm is not a Strong One in the Central Lands. If we wish to march into the Central Lands, we must boost the clan's strength; relying on a single individual cannot secure our footing."

"If we can establish a foothold in the Central Lands, it would be the utmost glory for our Luotian White Snake Clan."

"And Qinglong Daoist is a benefactor for whether we can control the Mangshan Mountain Range and advance to the Central Lands."

Her calculations yielded nothing, but she could be certain it involved Qinglong Daoist.

That person, that boy, was immensely important to the Luotian White Snake Clan, surpassing anyone in the Mangshan Mountain Range.

"Moreover, your future is closely tied to him; this Ancestor will not… force you to do something you dislike."

The Luotian Ancestor's gaze softened; Bai Xinlan was like a daughter to her, and she would never let her daughter marry someone she didn't love, nor sacrifice her for the clan's benefit.

She could not do such a thing.

"I understand, Ancestor," Bai Xinlan lowered her head, pondering the matter.

These days she had been thinking constantly, yet she was truly unwilling and truly… did not want to just give up.

"Take your time to think, and decide quickly," Bai Qingshuang waved her hand, still staring at Longshe Shan.

In her heart she thought, "Qingtian Gate has also come calling; are they heading for that boy?"

"Or what?"

……

Inside the Formation.

Bi Luochun was bewildered, gazing at the unfamiliar surroundings; he blinked.

Aside from blinking, the Formation remained invisible; only dense fog blocked his view, nothing could be seen.

He could not see the Formation at all; how to break it? His Spiritual Sense radiated outward, instantly absorbed by the surrounding fog, and then there was no further insight.

He couldn't tell how long he had been walking; he felt he was treading in place, never leaving this spot. The fog devoured soul and true Qi; Bi Luochun said gravely, "These fogs are problematic; soul and true Qi are draining, neither fast nor slow. This Formation is completely invisible; if I continue, I may be exhausted by the fog."

"Damn."

"What kind of hellish place is this, and what the hell are these fogs?"

He tried to disperse the fog, but found it impossible; the fog was too dense, surrounding him, and no matter what he did, it remained the same.

After several attempts, Bi Luochun gave up dispersing the fog and sat down, carefully observing his surroundings, watching the fog's flow, hoping to locate the Formation's core.

Heishanyang entered the Formation, saw Bi Luochun sit down, alert to his surroundings.

"That kid is clever, sitting down instead of wandering or attacking the Formation; Qingtian Gate has produced an impressive youngster."

"However, trying to capture me using this kid won't be that easy."

Heishanyang hid, not exposing himself, nor acting immediately, but watching quietly.

"This kid is quite good; if he weren't a disciple of Qingtian Gate, perhaps I wouldn't intervene."

"My prized possession must not be known to that Qinglong kid, or else it won't be safe."

"If that Chen Chuyang kid discovers I've hidden something valuable, he certainly won't spare me; this matter must not be exposed."

Its secret cannot be let known to others.

Especially that Chen Chuyang kid; if he learns of it, he'll surely come to kill.

Heishanyang feared no one else, only Chen Chuyang; that kid truly controls its life and death, can fully manipulate it. In front of Chen Chuyang, Heishanyang truly has no temper at all.

"That kid must not fall into the Qinglong kid's hands; they will surely try to extract information from his mouth."

"Hm."

Heishanyang pondered internally, weighing pros and cons.

Inside Longshe Shan, Qinglong Daoist watched this scene, taking no action; Heishanyang took no action, and he also took none, all maintaining a tacit understanding.

Xinran Zhanglao and Tianlian Zhenren stood nearby, watching everything within the Formation; Heishanyang's movements naturally could not escape their notice.

"Daoist Qinglong, do you think Heishanyang might kill him outright, preventing you and me from reaching him, thus making it impossible to know what good things he hides?" Elder Xinran asked, turning back.

Before Qinglong Daoist could speak, Tianlian Zhenren said first: "Definitely; Heishanyang is too cunning, he'll certainly destroy the body and erase all traces."

Qinglong Daoist nodded: "Daoist Tianlian is right; Heishanyang will definitely find a way to swallow him, preventing him from meeting us."

The three all knew Heishanyang's nature and thus understood his intentions.
