After stroking the blade, Du Shaotian put the broken sword back into the embroidered box.

Within the spatial storage bag, quite a few medicinal herbs were placed in front of Du Shaotian.

"Hualala …"

Whistling Pill Fire, the medicinal cauldron vibrated, and Du Shaotian once again threw himself into the forging process.

"..."

Northcloud City. The stars and the moon were dark.

The pitch black night seemed to be filled with endless thick ink that had been smeared across the horizon.

In front of the Du Residence's plaza, the long, empty street was like a calm river, meandering in the dense shadows of the trees. Not long after, there were rustling sounds of leaves moving, and the shadows of the trees were mottled.

Outside the large door, Liu Tong was seated cross-legged as he stared into the distance. A light flickered deep within his eyes in the darkness of the night and his gaze was solemn.

"..."

Night.

Bai Clan's courtyard.

Late at night, Bai Yuanshan still hadn't slept. These days he had been in high spirits, as if he had been ten years younger.

With the help of the Seven Star Soul Strengthening Pill's formula, the Bai Clan had secretly recruited some pill refiners. As long as they had sufficient preparations, they would be able to resolve the crisis in the Bai Clan.

At that time, even if they wanted to crush the Su Clan and Tian Clan, it wouldn't be long.

At the same time, there was something that made Bai Yuanshan equally happy. Young Master Du Shaotian said that he would break through within three days.

And indeed, he had broken through in just two days.

Bai Yuanshan had been stuck at the eighth level of the Martial General Realm for two years, but now he had broken through to the ninth level.

The acupoints within his body had been cleared up by young master Du Shaotian. Thus, it was twice the effort compared to before.

At this rate, he was not far from the Martial Lord realm.

Once he broke through to the Martial Lord realm, then the Bai Clan would be even more powerful.

Only the Bai Clan was the weakest among the Su Clan, Tian Clan, and Bai Clan of Beiyun City. The biggest problem came from their strength.

"Patriarch, the Su Clan has been quite active these few days and has sent many of their elites back. According to the information we've obtained, the Su Clan is going to make a move against the Du Clan."

A butler came in and informed Bai Yuanshan.

Recently, the Northern Cloud City was enveloped in a tense atmosphere. All the powers were paying attention to the Su Clan's every move, and the Bai Clan was no exception.

"Is Young Master Dean back yet?" Bai Yuanshan asked.

"Seems not. There are many people in Beiyun City saying that Du …" Young Master Du is afraid of the Su Family's revenge, so he doesn't dare come back. " the butler said.

"Hehe, is Young Master Du afraid of the Su Clan taking revenge? This is the biggest joke in the world."

Bai Yuanshan smiled. Others might not know, but he was clear that with Young Master Du's abilities, it would not be difficult for him to deal with the Su Clan. Why would he be afraid of revenge from the Su Clan?

"Call back the elites of our Bai Clan. If there is any movement from the Su Clan, our Bai Clan will do everything we can to support the Du Clan!"

A moment later, Bai Yuanshan made his decision.

"Patriarch, this might implicate the entire Bai Clan …"

The butler was shocked and went all out to support the Du Family regardless of the price. One must know that the so-called Du Family was purely that Du Shaotian and his mother, who was originally a servant of the Su Family. Although they had a relationship with the Marquis of Fengling, that was all he said.

Moreover, the Su Clan had deep roots and the Bai Clan would support the Du Clan regardless of the cost. This would likely cause the Bai Clan to suffer huge losses in the end.

"I have made up my mind. You may leave!"

Bai Yuanshan waved his hand and told the butler to step back. Looking at the moonlight outside the window, he clenched his fists and muttered to himself, "This is my first chance!"

"..."

The night passed, and the next morning.

Early in the morning, Du Shaotian refused Nangong Xuewei's offer and left the Heaven Pavilion.

At the corner of the Sky Pavilion's door, a stooped figure stared at the departing back of Du Shaotian. He raised his eyes slightly, and the light in his eyes seemed to be a little cloudy.

In a secluded alley with no one around, Du Shaotian regained his original look. He was thin but slender, with black hair flowing down his shoulders. He still had a bit of immaturity and gave off a harmless vibe.

Outside the city gate, it was already early in the morning, and the streets were bustling with activity.

Du Shaotian redeemed the Black Scaled Horse and rode back towards the Northern Cloud City with a whip in his hand.

"..."

In the morning, when the first rays of the morning sun shone over Northcloud City, the red clouds covered the sky and pressed down on the city. The atmosphere in the city was unknowingly a little stifling.

Su Clan, Main Hall

"Although there is news in the Feng Ling City that the Marquis of Wind's daughter is already married, there is no news of her at all from the Li family, nor is there any signs of celebration. Quite a few people have spread that the current prince of Youguo was going to marry the daughter of the Marquis of Fengling. Who knew that Li Ling'er would suddenly get married a few days ago? "

In the hall, one of the Su Clan members reported.

These past few days, many of the people that the Su Clan had sent out to investigate everywhere in the Feng Ling City, but they didn't receive much news of the City Lord of Feng Ling'er wanting to marry. Instead, they obtained some other information.

"The current crown prince of Youguo …"

The gazes of many Su Clan disciples in the hall changed when they heard this.

"I knew it. How could the Marquis of Wind Ridge, Li Zhangkong, marry his daughter to a good-for-nothing? Furthermore, he was kicked out of our Su Clan as a good-for-nothing. No wonder the news of the Li Residence did not spread, and there was no movement even when they married."

Su Family's Feng Feng sneered, as if she had understood something.

"Family Phoenix, tell me about it."

Chief Elder, some of the Su Clan elders asked the Su Clan's Feng.

"I think Marquis Feng Ling'er didn't want to marry his daughter into the Imperial Family, so he had no choice but to find someone to marry Li Ling'er in order to evade the current prince of You Guo. But I don't know how this luck ended up with that piece of trash, Du Shaotian." Su Clan Feng said.

"If your daughter is married to the current crown prince, why would the Marquis of Fengling be unwilling?"

The people of the Su Clan were puzzled. How honorable would it be to be able to marry her daughter to the current Crown Prince.

Su Jia Feng laughed faintly and said: "As the saying goes, entering a Marquis's house is as deep as the sea, not to mention the Imperial Family. Rumor has it that the Marquis Feng Ling is not simple, and probably did not want to send his daughter into the Imperial Family."

"If that Du Shaotian is truly the Marquis' son-in-law, it would be quite troublesome to kill him again." Some of the Su Clan members frowned slightly.

"So what if you are the son-in-law of the Marquis of Fengling, you have to kill my Su Family. If you kill my Su Family's Su Tianshong, Young Master Du must die!"

There were also Su Clan members who were gnashing their teeth in indescribable grief.

The hundred year genius of the Su Clan, the future of the Su Clan, had actually been inexplicably killed by Du Shaotian on the fighting stage.

"So what if he's Li Zhangkong's son-in-law? I'm afraid Li Zhangkong can't even protect himself this time, so how could he possibly care about that trash, Du Shaotian? Besides, how could Li Zhangkong treat that trash, Du Shaotian, as a son-in-law?"

The Su Clan's Feng sneered. Back then, the Su Clan let Du Shaowu marry into their clan, so could it be that they treated him as their Su Clan's young master? It was clear that they were only using him as a tool.

As far as I know, the current prince of Youguo, You Longquan, has peerless talent and is a direct disciple of Celestial Sect. Li Zhangkong actually found a good-for-nothing to be his son-in-law and rejected the crown prince, You Longquan. This is equivalent to humiliating the current prince of Youguo. Su Clan Feng laughed coldly.

"What does that have to do with our Su Clan? It's said that that trash Du Shaotian will be marrying Li Zhangkong's daughter tomorrow. When that happens, it'll be even more difficult for our Su Clan to kill that trash."

Killing Du Shaotian was what the Su Clan needed to do right now.

"This has a lot to do with my Su Clan."

The Su Family's Feng Feng Feng said coldly: "If we kill that little bastard Du Shaotian now, the Crown Prince You Longquan will have to thank our Su Family. The Northern Cloud City's City Lord's Mansion has always been empty, as long as our Su Family kills Du Shaotian, not only will we take revenge, we might even be able to enter the City Lord's Mansion. As for the Marquis of Wind Tomb, Li Zhangkong, I'm afraid that his days are already not good, and at that time, what can he do to my Su Family?! "

After hearing what Su Family Feng said, the gazes of many people changed. They could take revenge and even have the chance to enter the City Lord's Mansion. This was killing two birds with one stone.

"That trash is actually opening a residence right now, it is truly a glorious scene. If my Su Family still has not made a move, I'm afraid that the people from Beiyun City will think that my Su Family is afraid of a little trash!"

"But we haven't seen that little bastard return to Northcloud City yet?"

"I wonder where that little bastard went."

The hall suddenly became noisy.
