Chapter 555: Bai Family

Seeing this, Ye Chong turned and headed toward a special passage, while Lin Feng led the two women, following closely behind.

The two walked amid surrounding looks of surprise, and the group proceeded smoothly through that special passage.

After passing through a somewhat dim passage, bright light suddenly appeared ahead.

Lin Feng and the others followed Ye Chong toward the light, and an extremely spacious room immediately came into view.

This room was quite spacious and tranquil, with no outside noise seeping in.

At that moment, nearly ten people were standing inside the room.

As Lin Feng's group entered, their gazes also fell upon Lin Feng and his companions.

"Heh heh, Elder Ye Chong, I never expected you to apply for an early assessment this time. Do you know your Ye Family can't pass the Dan Tower assessment, so you're preparing to die early and be reborn early?"

As Lin Feng's group of four had just entered the room, a sharp, sarcastic mockery came over.

Hearing the sound, a hint of helplessness flashed across Lin Feng's face.

As the Five Great Families' assessment approaches, there are far too many of these families' people in the Dan Tower, right?

Immediately, he shifted his gaze toward the source of the sound.

However, he saw a gray-clad old woman, grinning with a mouth full of yellow teeth, her eyes filled with scorn as she looked at them.

Behind the gray-clad old woman stood a young man in white robes.

This young man exuded a faint chill, his expression cold and stern, with flashes of cold light as his eyes moved.

This caused some of the weaker individuals to dare not meet his gaze.

Beside that young man stood a young woman in white robes.

This woman had a graceful figure, her sexy, curvaceous body exuding strong allure.

This drew the gazes of some surrounding low-morale alchemists, who continually focused on parts of her body, their eyes flashing with heat and greed.

However, this white-clad woman was clearly also of that low-morale sort.

Upon seeing Lin Feng, Ye Chong, and the others, her eyes revealed undisguised contempt and mockery.

In contrast to the calm young man beside her, they formed a stark contrast.

"This nosy old woman is from the Bai Family. Because the Bai and Qiu Families were previously kept down by my Ye Family, now that they have barely surpassed us, every time they see us they mock us. I never expected to run into them here by such coincidence."

At the old woman's mockery, Ye Chong's face twitched slightly, and he whispered to Lin Feng.

Hearing this, Lin Feng nodded to indicate he understood.

Afterward, he recalled that at the auction in the Western Wasteland Desert, the final item had been an eight-grade five-colored pill that had leaked from the Bai Family.

Thinking of this, he looked scornfully at the Bai Family group and said, "Heh, no matter what, we're still stronger than those families that can't even guard their own pills."

Meanwhile, the Bai Family group, who had been smiling broadly, turned grim upon hearing Lin Feng's remark.

Next, the old woman fixed Lin Feng with a sinister glare and snapped, "You little brat with a sharp tongue, seeing how clearly you know about the Bai Family's theft case, I have reason to suspect you were involved in that robbery. If you don't go to the Bai Family and explain yourself clearly today, don't even think about leaving!"

"You with the surname Bai, stop spitting blood! Everyone in the Zhongzhou Continent knows about the Bai Family's theft case. If knowing this theft case makes one the culprit, then you should go ahead and arrest everyone in the Zhongzhou Continent!"

Hearing the other's slander, Ye Chong immediately pointed at them and shouted angrily.

Some of the surrounding cultivators also nodded in agreement.

After all, that theft case had indeed long spread throughout the Zhongzhou Continent.

"If knowing the case makes one the culprit, then everyone in the Zhongzhou Continent would really be..."

"You!"

Upon hearing Ye Chong's words, the old woman's face changed like Trump swapping faces—sometimes green, sometimes white—quite a sight.

Just as the old woman was about to say something more, a white-haired old man in a purple alchemist's robe suddenly walked over here.

Looking at the Ye and Bai Family groups, he calmly said, "This is the Dan Tower; no loud shouting is allowed."

Seeing the newcomer, the old woman bit her yellow teeth and had to swallow the rest of her words.

Clearly, she also greatly feared this old man.

"Elder Han Li, long time no see."

Upon seeing the white-haired old man, Ye Chong quickly clasped his hands and spoke politely.

"Ah, why stand on ceremony between us two?"

Seeing this, the old man called Han Li sighed and said.

"Elder Han Li, since everyone's here, let's get started quickly."

The gray-clad old woman said something to Han Li, then glanced at Lin Feng's group.

Finally, fixing her gaze on the most likely Lin Feng, she sneered, "Could it be that this brat is the one your Ye Family sent this time? How come he doesn't even have a rank insignia? Or has he never obtained one from the Dan Tower?"

"Get lost!"

Faced with this hysterical old woman, Lin Feng lost his patience, and a mighty soul power surged forth from his brow, rushing straight at her.

In the old woman's terrified eyes, the powerful soul power struck her directly.

"Bang!"

In a somewhat dull thud, the old woman's body flew backward, slamming directly into a wall several dozen meters behind her.

"You brat, you've got guts, daring to lay hands on my Bai Family's people!"

Seeing the former strike and send their family's elder flying, the cold-faced young man could no longer stay put, stepping forward and shouting coldly.

Although his strength was inferior to the opponent's, in this situation he certainly couldn't back down.

Otherwise, if word got out, his Bai Family would end up with a reputation for cowardice.

"Keep shouting, and believe it or not, once you leave Holy Dan City, you'll end up with your heads separated from your bodies!"

After repeatedly encountering such things, Lin Feng had completely lost his patience, and he sharply gazed at the former and said.

Although the Bai Family does not have the risk of being kicked out of the Five Great Families like the Ye Family does.

He did not dare to directly affront the Dan Tower by wiping out the Bai Family, one of the Dan Tower's Five Great Families.

But he could still manage to wipe out the opposing clan's elite forces entirely.

If the opponent continues to pester like this, he wouldn't mind actually doing that.

You!

Hearing this naked threat, even that man's composure couldn't help but give rise to endless anger.

But since they came out only to assess the alchemist rank, they didn't bring any strong individuals from the clan.

Thus after a brief consideration, they gave up competing with the former.

They merely kept this grudge secretly in mind, waiting until later to summon other strong individuals, then avenge this grudge.

As for the dozen or so alchemists watching the show around, they were even more dumbfounded on the spot.

They might have seen the soul power of the peak of the Mortal Realm, but achieving such a feat at such a young age, they likewise saw it for the first time.
