"Third Master, wait!" Shopkeeper Liu frowned and said loudly: "If Third Master insists on searching Shengshi Trading Company, then I will accompany you, but I will definitely report the matter to the superiors afterwards."
Since the other party repeatedly emphasized that he was following the orders of the head of the Bai family, and it was within the boundaries of Xihe County, he certainly could not be tough with the other party and could only fulfill his own responsibility.
Bai Shangcai didn't stop, and said calmly: "Shopkeeper Liu's words are wrong. We are not searching Shengshi, we are just looking for a gangster who has sneaked into the city. As for whether to report it or not, that is your internal matter. You can decide for yourself. ." After saying that, he entered the courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce.
Shopkeeper Liu entered the courtyard one step ahead of him. The other two practitioners stationed here heard the commotion and came out. The three of them were on guard.
Bai Shangcai glanced at the instructions on the Miyuan array plate, ignored the three people's warnings, and led the people directly to the backyard.
The courtyard of the Chamber of Commerce's stronghold is large to facilitate their collection and distribution of goods. At this time, the caravan group from Changping County was taking shelter from the rain under the eaves on the other side of the yard. The leader of the group, Chen Liang, also heard their conversation just now. Shi Zheng stood at the front of the crowd.
Bai Shangcai stood beside the courtyard and confirmed again that the array instructions were here. He looked at Chen Liang and said, "Are you the leader of the caravan? Are there any other practitioners in your caravan?"
Chen Liang first glanced at Shopkeeper Liu, and after the shopkeeper nodded, he replied: "There are no other practitioners except me."
Bai Shangcai frowned slightly, not because of these words, he was just asking symbolically, but because he did not detect any practitioners other than Chen Liang in the crowd in front.
"Come here." He said to Chen Liang.
Chen Liang's expression did not change after hearing this order. He still looked at Shopkeeper Liu, but saw Shopkeeper Liu also frowning and signaling to him. Only then did he feel that something was wrong. When he walked out of the team, he noticed that neither party looked at him. Instead, he continued to stare at the caravan he brought.
He turned around with some doubts. Is there anything wrong with this caravan? Suddenly, he thought that there seemed to be a boy in the body-refining stage in the caravan. How could he have forgotten him? He secretly regretted it, but then he thought about it, but it seemed that there was no problem in saying that the body-refining stage was not a practitioner.
When he reached Shopkeeper Liu, he subconsciously looked for the figure of the young man in the body-refining stage in the team, but he couldn't see him after looking around for several times, which made him feel a little guilty.
The man from the Bai Mansion walked up to Bai Shangcai with the Miyuan Formation Plate and signaled to his Third Master Bai. There were still light spots flickering on the array plate pointing directly in front of him, and the luster was dim. It looked like he was a monk in the early stages of the Cave Mansion.
Bai Shangcai said loudly: "I don't know which friend from the cave realm is in the caravan. I am Bai Shangcai of the Bai family. I hope this friend can come out and talk to me. We don't have any malicious intentions. We only ask a few words and leave."
In fact, the person who can cast a spell on Lao Li shouldn't be a monk in the cave realm, at least not in the early stage of the cave realm. He can just turn around and leave now.
However, there were two monks in the Tuo Pulse Realm standing here. They were unable to sense the other party's mere early stage of the cave and had to rely on the Yuan Formation Disk. This greatly increased his interest. He had to find this person today. Who is it, and what kind of secret technique is it to hide the aura?
Everyone in the caravan looked at me and I looked at you, a little at a loss. Most of them were people who traveled north and south. They basically knew the existence of practitioners, but the practitioners they knew were all high-ranking people. How could it be in a small caravan like theirs?
After a few seconds, no one came forward. Bai Shangcai said displeasedly: "I guarantee in the name of the Xihe Bai family that I will never do anything excessive to you. I just hope that you can come out and see me."
However, after a few breaths, no one showed up. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he pointed to someone in the caravan: "You, stand over there." He pointed to the other corner of the yard.
"Starting from him, you all walk towards that corner one by one, only one person passing each time."
The reputation of the Bai family in Xihe is not small, whether in the secular world or in the spiritual family.
At this time, the people in the caravan were shouted at by Bai Shangcai, and their tone was very rude, but no one dared to stand up and contradict him, and even did not dare to show their reluctance in their actions. They had heard of it, the monk The master's killings were all in vain, and the government did not dare to interfere.
The crowd obediently moved from one side of the courtyard to the other side of the courtyard. Not long after, it was the turn of the third group of merchants. Many guests got out of the carriages and waited, but the curtains of one carriage were still closed, and there were no orders. It means to move.
Bai Shangcai couldn't help but cast his eyes over there. At this moment, a man suddenly jumped out of the second group of merchants, jumped out of the yard, and quickly escaped into the distance.
The originally dim light in the corner of the Miyuan Formation Disk facing this side became brighter the moment the man jumped up.
"Pulse-Tuning Realm!" The man holding the formation plate subconsciously exclaimed.
"Chase!" Bai Shangcai reacted the fastest, squeezing out a word from between his teeth, and immediately took the lead in chasing in that direction.
This was not the first time he had seen this kind of breath gathering technique that could deceive Miyuan Formation Pan, but he didn't expect to see it on his own territory in Xihe County.
The other party entered the city hiding his aura, and then turned around and ran away when he saw the Bai family. Even if he wasn't the one who cursed Lao Li, he probably didn't have any good intentions.
A cultivator following the Bai family took out something from his arms and crushed it without being asked. Immediately, a red fireball shot up into the sky and exploded. This was one of their communication methods, and it meant that the enemy was found to be fleeing. The city gates are sealed to prevent practitioners from entering or exiting.
Bai Shangcai unsheathed his sword and held it in his hand. When the man jumped up, he vaguely caught a glimpse of the man's face. It was undoubtedly Zhu Mingkui. As someone who had attacked the Bai family, no one in the Bai family had seen his portrait. The appearance has long been remembered in the heart, and the cultivation during the pulse expansion period can also confirm it.
Zhu Mingkui was extremely fast and disappeared from Bai Shangcai's sight after a few turns in the alley. Bai Shangcai knew that the opponent was very good at escaping, so he almost tried his best to increase his speed a few points, and then reluctantly returned. Followed.
However, just as he followed the other person's figure and turned around another alley, a sword light suddenly struck him in front of the door.
Fortunately, he was always on alert. Although the sword came a bit fast, he still reacted and blocked it in time with his long sword.
The sound of gold and iron clashing was heard, and the long swords struck each other. Bai Shangcai was horrified. He found it difficult to resist the force coming from the sword, and he fell back after being hit.
The opponent seemed to have expected it, and when his posture was broken, he slashed horizontally with the sword and hit his neck.
He leaned back and tried to dodge. He made a fist with the hand that was not holding the sword and struck the opponent's sword from bottom to top.
The opponent seemed to know that it was difficult to achieve success with one blow, so he changed his stance midway, changing from a horizontal chop to a downward chop, which landed right on Bai Shangcai's fist.
The moment the blade of the sword clashed with his fist, blood suddenly appeared. The tip of the sword went straight down the back of his fist, creating a hideous wound on Bai Shangcai's forearm that was as deep as the bone. Because the opponent was temporarily changing his moves and his strength was slightly weaker, he didn't. Split his arm bones.
"Third Master, let me help you!" Only then did the others catch up, arriving before they could.
The other party took a look at the number of people coming and the sword power that Bai Shangcai had already turned around, then turned around and left, flying out of everyone's sight.
