Leveling Up And Becoming Undefeatable

Bai Qi looked at Luo Tian, not understanding the reason.

Luo Tian didn’t bother explaining.

It won’t be that quick for the four great families to discuss the details of their alliance.

They needed time. And the moment they do come, the Bai family will definitely be destroyed.

When one forms an alliance, they will usually talk about benefits and how to divide them. This will slow down the formation of the alliance.

The destruction of the Bai family’s stores was just one of the intimidation tactics the four great families were using against the Bai family. They wanted the people in the Bai family to experience fear and confusion. And it was pretty clear their tactics were working based on the departure of the six Bai family elders.

After seeing the desired effects from the first step, they won’t be in too much of a rush to make a second move.

Without Bai Kong and the other five powerful elders, the strength of the Bai family had been greatly reduced. To the four great families, the Bai family were basically fish on a chopping board, to be slaughtered whenever they wanted.

With all these circumstances combined, the four great families were not in a rush to take action.

Luo Tian then said, “Uncle Bai, please listen to my commands from here on out. I promise that I will protect the Bai family with all my strength.”

Since Bai Qi had chosen him, then Luo Tian felt that he didn’t have a reason to hold back.

Even if he had to use the Thor Transformation Card, he would take it out without any hesitation.

It was simply due to being trusted!

Bai Qi didn’t say anything extra as he felt Luo Tian was someone who could create miracles. He looked at Luo Tian in all seriousness and said, “Fine! I will listen to your commands!”

Bai Xiong walked over and asked, “Boss, what do you need me to do?”

Bai Lingling and Lin Dong also walked over and asked, “What should we do?”

Luo Tian looked at the sky and replied, “There’s nothing we need to do right now. The only thing is to wait!”

The four were confused, unable to understand what was going on in Luo Tian’s mind.

“Wait?”

“Time is very important to us right now. Waiting will only cause us further harm. Boss, what are we exactly waiting for?” asked Bai Xiong. He has always been a straightforward person, asking whenever he didn’t know something.

Luo Tian replied, “We wait for nightfall!”

“Nightfall?”

“That’s right! I want to do a night raid!”

————

The temporary headquarters of the four great families, Deng manor.

Deng family’s main hall.

It was very lively there with the patriarchs from all four great families and their elders.

With the addition of the six elders from the Bai family, the main hall had over thirty people. This was a stark contrast to the main hall of the Bai family.

“Hahaha…”

“Shit must have entered Bai Qi’s brain. I would really like to see how he’s going to protect that dog thing Luo Tian. This time, let’s see if he’s going to die or not.” Ouyang Lie said viciously.

They originally didn’t have a good plan just yet, but with Bai Kong and the other five joining, they had given them a lot of information about the Bai family.

Now, they were even more confident.

“Since they have six fewer experts, the Bai family has become a persimmon that we can pinch however we want. What kind of waves can Bai Qi and a few children cause? I refuse to believe Luo Tian has three heads and six arms, impervious to spears and blades.”

“The Bai family is easy to deal with, but that kid Luo Tian is too strange. He has learned a lot of weird martial skills. He can transform into another person, summon a fire qilin, and has a flame that can incinerate everything. I heard that inside the spatial world, he was able to transform into some demon with eight pitch-black wings. I have never heard of such a thing before. Who knows where that kid learned those abilities from.”

“That’s right!”

“We have to be careful when dealing with that kid. Inside the spatial world, even a person from the Hai family couldn’t kill him. We have to be very careful and not let him escape. As long as we can kill Luo Tian, it will be considered an explanation to Lord Ao and please the Hai family. Perhaps the Hai family might even reward us by making Towering Cloud City as their subordinate force. At that time, who would dare to touch us?”

“Hahaha, what you’ve said is right!”

Zhang Yaojie smiled and said, “The Bai family will definitely perish, and Bai Kong will be able to take over or establish a new Bai family. However, how will we split the Bai family’s assets once our alliance destroys them?”

Ouyang Lie’s eyes flickered.

It wasn’t just him because this was happening with the other patriarchs as well.

Ouyang Lie said, “Since it’s called the alliance of the four great families, naturally, all four families will split it evenly.”

Bai Kong was feeling annoyed, but he couldn’t voice that out. He said to himself, “You guys are basically ignoring the six of us! Humph~!”

Deng Leigong’s eyes darkened before exclaiming, “You want to split the Bai family’s assets when we haven’t even destroyed them yet? I think you guys are a bit overly optimistic. We should discuss this after we have destroyed them. The Bai family’s assets won’t be able to run away, right?”

Ouyang Lie immediately said, “Old Master Deng, your Deng family is wealthy and does not care about the Bai family’s industries. But we are different. I think it is better to make things clear first so that we don’t damage our relationship afterward.”

Zhang Yaojie immediately chimed in, “I agree with Brother Ouyang. It’s better to make things clear first, saving us from any unwanted confusion later.”

Deng Leigong then said, “How do you guys want to split it then?”

Ouyang Lie chuckled before saying, “The Ouyang family only wants the forging shops of the Bai family and nothing else. You guys can decide on what to do with the rest.”

“Screw that!”

“Ouyang Lie, aren’t you a bit too greedy? Everyone knows the Bai family’s forging shops are the most lucrative. If you get to swallow them all, what are we supposed to get?” said one of the Li family elders.

“That’s right!”

“The forging stores definitely need to be split evenly. My Zhang family will settle for a few spiritual herb stores…”

Before he could finish speaking, others immediately jumped in, saying no.

It was just like how Luo Tian predicted. The four great families will quarrel over the division of assets and argue endlessly over every single thing.

This was the opportunity he was seeking.

The sky gradually darkened.

The lanterns of Towering Cloud City were lighting up, giving the whole city a red glow.

The main streets were busy with traffic, still as lively as ever.

There wasn’t any tension after the four great families declared war on the Bai family. For ordinary people, the struggle among the five great families was already commonplace and would not have too much of an impact on their daily lives.

In the southern area, the Zhang family.

The Zhang family controlled several streets of property on the south side of the city.

This area wasn’t as prosperous as the eastern part of the city, but the land they owned was very large.

The Zhang family had always wanted to jump out from the southern part of the city and get their hands on some businesses on the east side, the most prosperous part of Towering Cloud City.

Zhang Yaojie was returning from the Deng family’s manor, his face full of displeasure. Along the way, he grumbled and said, “Humph! You guys say I have a lot of land, but every one of you is more prosperous than me! You guys want to give me the Bai family’s most worthless businesses? Like hell, I would agree to that!”

Before he knew it, he was already back at the southern side of the city. The streets felt a little off, especially the pedestrians in the area.

An attendant behind Zhang Yaojie said, “Patriarch, something’s not right with the atmosphere.”

Zhang Yaojie looked around before slapping the face of his attendant. “Something’s not right your mother! Don’t you know it’s normal for the south of the city to be deserted at night? Motherfucker, are you rubbing salt on my wound? You must be tired of living!”

Around this time, a person was standing there not too far from them.
