Chapter 507: Jiang Zhongming's Shock and Doubt
As Jiang Xiaobai's words fell.
The Black and White Venerable did not sense anything amiss.
He still assumed it was because of his own "contribution" that he had earned the other's regard.
Thinking that he could soon cling tightly to the thigh of the Cangwu Jiang clan, he was instantly overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Many thanks for your regard, my lord! From now on I shall surely serve you with all the loyalty of a dog and a horse!"
"If there is any place where you can make use of a lowly one like me, just say it outright. I shall never refuse, and will only spare no effort to carry it out..."
Seeing the little fat dog at his feet being so understanding.
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, the smile on his face growing wider.
However, he did not say more, merely lowering his right hand and placing the Black and White Venerable back onto the ground.
Then he looked toward Qin Xue and said casually: "Let's go, come back with me and take a look."
"Don't be afraid any longer. So long as I am here, no one can harm you in the slightest!"
The strong confidence revealed in his words caused Qin Xue's expression to ease.
She first stole a cautious glance at Wang Tong.
Seeing that the other remained silent the whole time.
A trace of joy finally appeared on Qin Xue's face, and she promptly cupped her hands in thanks: "Many thanks, my lord!"
Jiang Xiaobai gave a slight nod.
He then released his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings.
In the span of a single breath, he had already located the entrance to the Heavenly Demon Sect.
He turned to look at the people behind him: "Follow me."
The moment his words fell, he set off from where he stood, heading toward the location of the entrance!
Seeing this, Wang Tong dared not delay, and immediately led Qin Xue and the Black and White Venerable, hurrying after him!
Not long after.
Jiang Xiaobai arrived smoothly at the entrance to the Heavenly Demon Sect.
The group of Purple Mansion cultivators stationed here, sensing someone's arrival, were all secretly shocked within, as if facing a formidable enemy!
But upon seeing that the newcomer was merely a youth.
The alarm in their hearts instantly turned into astonishment!
The leader, hand resting on the treasured blade at his waist, said in a heavy voice: "Who are you?!"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, having not the slightest interest in explaining within.
The next moment.
He was seen clasping his hands behind his back.
Boom—
A terrifying, overwhelming pressure poured forth, surging outward, bearing down upon the bodies of everyone present!
Although the intensity of this pressure was still less than a ten-thousandth of his full strength.
For these feeble Purple Mansion cultivators, it was still utterly terrifying and absolutely impossible to resist!
In the span of a single breath.
Everyone's expression changed drastically, their bodies lost their balance, and they all crashed to the ground together.
Their four limbs pressed flat against the cold ground.
Upon their backs it was as if they carried a mountain.
An incomparable, dreadful sense of oppression enveloped their entire bodies, pinning them firmly in place, unable to move!
"Just what cultivation base is this person?!"
At this moment, their eyes were filled with a look of horror.
Everyone realized that the newcomer was an extraordinary, eminent senior!
At this time, Jiang Xiaobai paid no heed to the shock and bewilderment of the crowd.
He raised his head to look ahead, sensing the auras of cultivators one after another within.
A smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Their strength is all passable. Come with me back to Cangwu..."
The moment his words fell, Jiang Xiaobai's figure vanished from where he stood, flying swiftly toward the interior of the stronghold!
Not long after.
The Sect Master's study.
At this moment, Jiang Zhongming was not sitting on the wooden chair.
His face showed tension, heavy with worry, as he paced back and forth within the room without cease.
Gazing at the scene outside the window, he could not help but sigh.
"I wonder how Xue'er is doing now..."
As the puppet Sect Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
He naturally understood the sect's terrifying aspects better than anyone else.
The number of powerful experts was vast.
The defenses were so strict that even if it were himself, escape would be extremely difficult!
Yet his own wife was only at the Blood Condensation realm; for her to flee this place was nearly impossible!
Let alone having to bring along Gang'er, still an infant in swaddling clothes — making it all the more difficult!
"Sigh, I can only pray for the protection of the ancestors through the ages, that Xue'er can safely bring Gang'er away..."
If it were not absolutely necessary, how could one resort to such a desperate stratagem?
But the Grand Protector had left the stronghold only a handful of times — now was the best opportunity!
If we miss this chance, there'll be even less hope in the future...
Jiang Zhongming's face showed bitterness, and he could not help but shake his head.
However, just at this moment.
Bang—
A muffled sound suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting his thoughts.
Hmm?
Jiang Zhongming raised his brow, feeling puzzled, and involuntarily stopped in his tracks.
Then, before he could even figure out what was going on.
He saw the room's door being kicked open with a bang!
A black-clothed youth with a terrifying aura and a warm smile at the corner of his lips suddenly appeared before his eyes!
"You are?"
Jiang Zhongming realized the other party was no good sort, and immediately felt something was off!
Jiang Xiao glanced over and said softly, "Come with me."
"Ah?"
Jiang Zhongming's eyes went wide, and he stood dumbfounded on the spot, looking somewhat at a loss.
Leave with him?
Is this a trap, or a test?
