Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 828
Chapter 828 Xingshi Questioned
Bai Family’s Holy City was the only city in Heavenly Yi Emperor Domain that was situated next to Emperor Tianyi City. Especially Bai Family’s Holy City, which was shrouded in moonlight, had always been one of Primordial world’s most famous scenic spots.
Most of the buildings in Bai Family’s Holy City are made of yue ying stone, which is one of the most precious stones in Primordial world. Its main function is to absorb the moonlight and release the essence of the moon.
When the moonstone released the essence of the moon, its entire body would emit a translucent green light.
Just imagine, in the pitch-black night, all the buildings emitted a translucent green light at the same time. Wasn’t that a beautiful scene?
As the young lord of Bai Family’s Holy City, Bai Ningxuan had been a proud son of heaven since the day she was born.
His status was noble and his talent was excellent. He is handsome and loyal.
However, no one who knew Bai Ningxuan could think of any obvious flaws in her body.
However, there was once someone on the East Continent of Primordial world who was somewhat similar, and he was even more perfect than Bai Ningxuan.
This person was Jiang Feng.
However, Jiang Feng was ultimately harmed by the adulterer, causing him to be immersed in it for a hundred and thirty years.
What about Bai Ningxuan?
At present, Bai Ningxuan was also facing a predicament similar to Jiang Feng’s.
The core body of the White Saint Race was one lord and six sides. It was equivalent to one master household and six collateral households.
This was equivalent to Bai Ningxuan’s grandfather and his generation being six brothers.
This was actually very terrifying.
One must know that the human race in Primordial world is generally not fertile. An imperial clan as large as Xuanyuan Imperial Clan was only a master clan with three siblings.
In fact, Xuanyuan Huangquan was nearly a thousand years old when he gave birth to Xuanyuan Wushuang, continuing his inheritance.
It was precisely because of the enormous Bai Clan’s saint race that the Bai Clan had always been the number one saint race in the Heavenly Yi Emperor Domain.
But all things in the world are two-sided. If there is a good side to it, then there must be a bad side to it.
The same was true of the White Saint Race.
The current Patriarch of the Bai Clan was Bai Ningxuan’s grandfather, Bai Wentian, and the current Patriarch was Bai Ningxuan’s father, Bai Yuquan.
In the past, only Bai Wentian was a Saint realm expert in the Bai Clan, so the main clan was able to suppress the other six collateral clans.
But a year ago, the situation had changed. Bai Ye and Bai Qinggu had both broken through to the Saint realm.
As for Bai Ye and Bai Qinggu, they had always been advancing and retreating together, which meant that Bai Wentian’s status as the main clan’s clan was slightly shaken.
In particular, Bai Ningxuan’s father, Bai Yuquan, was not talented enough, and he was only at the peak of the King Realm. Bai Yuquan’s cultivation was far inferior to Bai Ningxuan’s as a son, so Bai Yuquan was simply unable to convince the crowd within the Bai Saint Clan.
Bai Yuquan’s cultivation was a problem, and Bai Ye and Bai Qinggu’s clans had suddenly gained momentum.
To Bai Wentian and the others, these two things were akin to both internal and external troubles.
Especially recently, the Bai Ye and Bai Qinggu clans had already held groups to disobey Bai Yuquan’s orders many times. In fact, Bai Ye and Bai Qinggu had not paid their monthly taxes for three months, and their rebellious intentions could be said to have reached a semi-public level.
The last time Bai Ningxuan and Jiang Feng met, he originally wanted to say to Jiang Feng, “If possible, I’ll just bring the Bai Family to the Jiang Kingdom with you.”
However, Bai Ningxuan knew that neither his grandfather nor his father would easily admit defeat or give way, so he was unable to say those words to Jiang Feng at that time.
Bai Family’s Holy City was actually very far away from Tianyi Imperial City. It would take a whole day to arrive on the Flowing Light Ship. Therefore, Bai Ningxuan and the others weren’t very clear about what had happened in Tianyi Imperial City today. Bai Ningxuan was currently sitting on the roof of the Star Seizing Tower of the Bai Clan Sacred Palace, admiring the White Sacred City beneath the curtain of night with a pot of wine in her hand.
At this moment, in the lobby of the Bai Clan Sacred Palace, the Bai Clan Sacred Clan was holding a monthly clan meeting.
Normally, the collateral clans would report problems at this meeting, and the main clan would give the decision-making plan to the collateral clans to execute. Then, the main clan arranged for the collateral clans to do the work, and urged them to inquire about what had happened last time.
However, ever since the Bai Ye and Bai Qinggu clans’ momentum, the Bai Clan Saint Clan’s Clan Meeting had fallen into endless quarrels. Bai Ningxuan did not like such a scene, so she simply did not continue.
“If only I hadn’t been born in the Bai Clan? Then at this time, I can drink with the young marshal and drink with the superior marshal.”
Just as Bai Ningxuan finished muttering to himself, he suddenly frowned and turned to look behind him and shouted, “Who is it?”
“My dear nephew is so elegant. I’m still in the mood to drink and admire the moon in the Star Harvesting Pavilion at this time.”
The person who spoke was called Bai Juntong. According to his seniority, Bai Ningxuan should call him “Second Uncle”.
However, this Bai Jun was also the son of Bai Qinggu, and their faction had been fighting for the throne the most frequently lately. Therefore, Bai Ningxuan naturally did not have a good expression to show him.
“It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you when I drink and when I appreciate the moon.”
“Haha.” Bai Ningxuan’s rejecting tone did not make Bai Juntong angry. Bai Juntong smiled and shook his head, “My good nephew is right. Young master of the dignified Bai Saint Clan, I naturally do not have the right to drink and admire the moon. But …”
Bai Juntong’s last sentence dragged on for a long time. Bai Ningxuan looked at Bai Juntong and frowned slightly. He felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.
Bai Juntong’s expression suddenly turned cold as he shouted in a deep voice, “But if you collude with an external enemy and betray the Imperial Domain, then I can’t ignore it!”
As soon as Bai Juntong finished speaking, Bai Ningxuan suddenly felt several powerful auras coming from three directions around him.
When Bai Ningxuan sensed these three strands of Qi, he was immediately shocked. These three strands of Qi were very obvious. They were all Saint realm experts.
Bai Ningxuan had already advanced to the Emperor Realm at such a young age, so she could be considered an uncommon genius. However, the Emperor Realm was the Emperor Realm, so there was no room to retaliate against the High Saint Realm.
Of course, other than monsters like Jiang Feng.
After all, many of Jiang Feng’s fortuitous encounters were definitely not something that ordinary people could possess.
Bai Ningxuan was attacked by three Saint realms at the same time. He was even seriously injured before he could even unfold the Purple Blade Crystal Wings.
Bai Ningxuan was escorted to the main hall of the Bai Clan’s Sacred Palace by three Sacred realm experts.
In the lobby, Bai Ningxuan’s father and grandfather were also escorted to their knees. Seeing Bai Ningxuan enter the lobby, Bai Yuquan, Bai Ningxuan’s father, immediately shouted, “Ningxuan, quickly tell them. You didn’t collude with any foreign enemies to betray the Imperial Domain. You didn’t!”
Bai Ningxuan glanced at Bai Yuquan and opened his mouth. However, when his gaze landed on an unremarkable looking middle-aged man in the lobby, Bai Ningxuan was stunned. His mouth was slightly open and he was unable to speak.
This unremarkable looking middle-aged man, Bai Ningxuan, had seen him before. He was Pan Gaoyi, who had just landed with Jiang Feng on the other side of the coast of the Jade Water Imperial City and had come to Bai Family’s Holy City together.
As soon as Pan Gaoyi saw Bai Ningxuan, he immediately said, “It’s him. He is the Flowing Light ship that brought us through the Jade Water Imperial City and then to Bai Family’s Holy City. It’s him …”
The moment Pan Gaoyi said those words, Bai Yuquan and Bai Wentian were stunned.
Bai Wentian looked at Bai Ningxuan and hesitated to say anything. Bai Yuquan continued to shout at Bai Ningxuan, “Ningxuan! You’re talking, you’re retorting! You didn’t do it, right? Tell me!”
Bai Ningxuan looked at Bai Yuquan guiltily. In the end, he said to Tianyi Yeqiu, who was sent by the Tianyi Imperial Clan, “Lord Ye Qiu, I did this alone. It has nothing to do with my father and grandfather. If you want to punish me, punish me. If you want to kill me, you must cut Bai Ningxuan into pieces.”
“Bai Ningxuan! Bai Ningxuan!”
Bai Yuquan excitedly shouted at Bai Ningxuan twice, one louder than the other.
Bai Ningxuan lowered her head, unable to say a word.
Bai Yuquan’s body trembled slightly. He might be angry or frightened.
Tianyi Yeqiu coldly snorted in the lobby. He looked at Bai Ningxuan and said, “Good, very good. The Bai Saint Clan has produced a talent, a great talent.”
After Tianyi Yeqiu finished speaking, another Saint realm expert who came with Tianyi Yeqiu said to Bai Ningxuan, “Bai Ningxuan, do you know what happened in Tianyi Imperial City yesterday?”
“The Tianyi Imperial Clan was attacked by a Tier 7 ferocious beast. The Emperor’s body was seriously injured and his whereabouts were unknown along with the Skylight Mirror. The Tianyi Imperial City has now turned into ruins. As for these Tier 7 ferocious beasts, they followed him ashore from the Jade Water Imperial City and went to the Tianyi Imperial City.”
As the Saint realm expert spoke, he pointed at Pan Gaoyi. Clearly, the “he” he was referring to was Pan Gaoyi.
After Bai Ningxuan and the others heard the words of the Saint realm expert, they were all stunned. They had never thought that the matter would be so serious.
Suddenly, Bai Yuquan shouted, “Lord Ye Qiu! Lord Ye Qiu! I have decided to break off the father-son relationship with Bai Ningxuan. We are no longer father and son. We don’t know what he did. It really has nothing to do with us.”
“Shut up!” Bai Wentian roared.
“Bai Yuquan, aren’t you embarrassed enough? Ning Xuan naturally has his reasons for doing things. Even if he did something wrong, he is still a disciple of the Bai Saint Clan. I, Bai Wentian, am willing to shoulder the punishment together with him!”
“Grandfather …”
Bai Ningxuan looked at Bai Wentian, her nose slightly sore.
At this moment, Tianyi Yeqiu said, “First imprison Bai Ningxuan and the others, and then announce the news of their beheading five days later. I want to see if that Jiang Feng will take the initiative to show himself for his friend!”
“Lord Ye Qiu, please spare me, please spare me, Lord Ye Qiu!”
Bai Yuquan shouted loudly. Tianyi Yeqiu looked at Bai Yuquan and suddenly had an idea.
He said to the two Imperial Palace guards who were preparing to escort Bai Yuquan away, “Wait a moment, leave the Bai Clan Master behind!”
