The Third Elder's Yuan Mansion was sealed, and even the messaging talisman could not be activated. He could only ask the children of the Ba Family to contact the Ba Family. As the Third Elder of the Ba Family, he was sealed of his Yuan Mansion in front of countless practitioners. How could he let it go after such a great humiliation!
Just as the young man of the Ba family was contacting his clan, a man in fancy clothes walked quickly over from the end of the West Market and stopped in front of a large store.
The man in fancy clothes raised his eyebrows, looked at the restaurant in the distance which was surrounded by people, and said in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
"Sixth Manager, it's Batu. I heard that his friend is here. He is quite powerful and is now in conflict with the Ba family." In the shop, a middle-aged man who was at the peak of martial arts level hurriedly spoke upon hearing this.
"Batu?"
The man in fancy clothes raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "Is that the Batu who was imprisoned in Yuan Mansion before?"
"Yes." The middle-aged man next to him nodded slightly.
Batu is somewhat famous in Xishi. Of course, this fame is not a good one, but because his Yuanfu was sealed and he was humiliated by the practitioners of the Ba family.
"The Ba family is really going backwards as time goes by." The man in fancy clothes shook his head slightly.
The Ba family is considered one of the top families in Maple Forest City. First, they were threatened and humiliated by outsiders, and now they are attacked again. Even if the Ba family resolves the matter this time, they will probably become a joke in the eyes of countless practitioners in Maple Forest City.
The man in fancy clothes no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Ba family. After all, the Ba family did not even have a martial arts master. Although they had a deep foundation, they were only a third-rate force and could not threaten their status at all. He then looked at the middle-aged man next to him and asked, "How is the business of the store recently?"
"The business of the store is the same as before, there is not much difference. This is the recent income." The middle-aged man said as he handed a roll of account book to the man in fancy clothes.
The man in fancy clothes glanced through the account book and nodded slightly. There was no major difference between the account book and the previous one.
Seeing the man in fancy clothes preparing to leave, the middle-aged man beside him hurriedly said, "Sixth Steward, the young lady..."
"Don't ask too much about these things. The family has its own plans." The man in fancy clothes glanced at the middle-aged man and said lightly.
After saying this, the man in fancy clothes did not wait for the middle-aged man to continue asking questions, but left the store directly and disappeared in the crowd.
"well… "
Looking at the man in fancy clothes leaving, the middle-aged man sighed and said with a wry smile, "The Ba family is going backwards, and so is our Yun family. The Ba family punished Batu, and we..."
The Ba family punished Batu in order to please outsiders, while the Yun family imprisoned Yun Lan for the sake of marriage. In the final analysis, the nature of their actions is similar, but the Yun family did it more secretly, and outsiders had no idea about it except for people within the family.
…
Whoosh~
A figure flashed across the room and sat down directly. It was Yang Qi who had returned to the restaurant.
Seeing Yang Qi return, Batu hurriedly said, "Brother Yang, you didn't make things difficult for the Third Elder and the others, did you?"
“Brother Ba, the Ba family has humiliated you so much, how come you…” Seeing Batu’s worried look, Yang Qi couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
Shouldn't Batu be angry and resentful when the Ba family punished him like this? Even if there were people in the Ba family who stood on his side, the third elder was the one who insisted on this matter. How could Batu still care about him
Batu did not directly answer Yang Qi's question, but slowly said, "Brother Yang, you are not from a cultivation family, right?"
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly. Not only was he not from a cultivation family, he was not a cultivator from the Zichen Continent at all, and he had only been in the Zichen Continent for a few years.
"Practitioners who are born into a family of practitioners have been told since childhood that the interests of the family are above everything else, and that lives can be sacrificed for the family's or personal honor. Similarly, the family will provide resources and shelter for the growth of the family members. Compared to ordinary practitioners, practitioners who are born into a family of practitioners can be said to have an extremely comfortable life." Batu said slowly.
"I understand." Yang Qi nodded slightly.
The cohesion of the cultivation family is the highest among the cultivation forces. In addition to the relationship of blood, more importantly, the cultivation family has been taught since childhood. The concept that family interests are above everything else has long been deeply rooted in the bones! It is precisely because of this that even if Batu is humiliated like this, he does not want Yang Qi to hurt the strong men of the Ba family because of him, because in that case, the strength of the Ba family will be weakened, and the life of the children of the Ba family will be even more difficult!
Although Batu had resentment in his heart, he did not want the family that gave birth to him and raised him to be harmed, nor did he want his own people to be harmed.
"I really don't understand you. If I were her, I would just beat up those useless executives first." Liu Fei on the side curled her lips. For her, who is a carefree person, there are not so many twists and turns. She would just beat up the people she doesn't like first.
Yang Qi, who was standing by, couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. Batu's words reminded him of the time before he inherited the legacy of Emperor Haoyang. At that time, he was at the lowest point in his life. He was filled with indignation and dissatisfaction, but even so, he still loved his motherland, China, very much in his heart.
The same is true for Batu. On the one hand, he is unwilling to be punished by the family leaders, but on the other hand, he is extremely loyal and loves his family. People are sometimes so contradictory. It is not a simple love and hate, but a mixture of love and hate.
From Batu's attitude, Yang Qi knew that if he took direct action to make the Ba family change their punishment on Batu, when the enemy came again in the future, Batu would be willing to be punished without the Ba family's top leaders saying anything. Therefore, the best way was to solve this matter from the root, and to solve this matter, he needed to know who Batu had offended!
"Brother Ba, who exactly did you offend?" Yang Qi looked at Batu.
Batu sighed and said, "The person I offended was Wei Hong from the Wei family in Wu County."
Wei Hong
Yang Qi and Liu Fei looked at each other in confusion. Although Tianjianmen was in Wujun, this was the first time they had heard of the name Wei Hong.
"It's not surprising that you don't know him. Wei Hong himself is not famous. Although he is nearly a hundred years old, he is only at the mid-level martial arts realm. But he has a younger brother who was once a genius on the Tianjiao List, Wei Qing from Xuanjianmen." Batu said with a wry smile.
Poof!
The drinks in Yang Qi and Liu Fei's mouths sprayed out, and they looked at each other in disbelief and asked Batu, "Wei Qing?"
"Yes, it is Wei Qing. I heard that this person is extremely talented and is being trained by Xuanjianmen as the future sect leader. He has a very high status." Batu said bitterly.
"Wei Qing, I didn't expect it was him." Yang Qi chuckled. If nothing unexpected happened, this Wei Qing was the same Wei Qing who participated in the Purple Emperor Secret Realm!
"I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be Wei Qing. I'll say hello to him. I guarantee that the Wei family won't dare to cause trouble for you." Liu Fei said indifferently.
“What a big mouth!”
At this moment, a cold shout came from outside the room. (To be continued)
