Chapter 1007: Split Up And Take Action
Luo Tian didn’t say his condition but Bai Lingling still agreed to it.
No matter what kind of condition it was, she would still agree to it.
Saving her father was the most important thing.
Everything else was not important to her. She already didn’t have a mother, so she didn’t want to be without a father as well.
Towering Cloud City, Bai family.
Martial Arts Hall.
Bai Yuan was sitting in the seat for the Patriarch with a spirited expression. He looked at Bai Shan and said, “Good! Good! I didn’t expect that little girl Bai Lingling to really find a Dark Yin Crystal. It was fortunate that you were able to intercept her, otherwise, it would be difficult for us once Bai Qi were to regain his yuan energy.”
Bai Shan had returned to the Bai family and handed over the Dark Yin Crystal.
Bai Yuan was naturally happy about it.
Even though Bai Qi was imprisoned in the Black Wind Cave, and ten out of ten people would die inside there, Bai Qi couldn’t be allowed to come out alive. Bai Qi was still someone that could pose a threat to his position. But Bai Shan’s behavior was sufficient to show his loyalty to him.
Even if Bai Qi manages to come out of the Black Wind Cave alive, it would still be useless without the Dark Yin Crystal. The poison inside his body couldn’t be detoxified, and he would still be a waste of space that poses no threat to him!
Bai Shan then said, “Patriarch, what should we do with this Dark Yin Crystal then?”
Bai Yuan was in thought for a bit before replying, “Just leave it to me to take care of it.” Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
Bai Shan handed it over.
Dark Yin Crystals were a kind of crystal that can absorb poison in a person’s body. It was especially useful against poisons of the yang type. Only a Dark Yin Crystal can solve the poison in Bai Qi.
Bai Yuan grabbed the Dark Yin Crystal with one hand, circulated his yuan energy, and a flame appeared on his hand. The flame wrapped around the crystal before he bellowed, “Break for me!”
“Boom~!”
The Dark Yin Crystal exploded into pieces!
Bai Yuan pulled back his violent aura and started laughing, “Now, there is no more Dark Yin Crystal. Bai Qi, you can forget about making a comeback this lifetime even if you manage to stay alive. You will forever be stepped on by my feet! Hahaha...”
He felt secretly glad inside his heart.
When the news of Bai Lingling being still alive reached Towering Cloud City, Ouyang Ye immediately reacted by declaring he had to have Bai Lingling!
The little wiener hanging between his legs was still hurting now, and it had been sleeping all this time. It wouldn’t come up no matter what! Ouyang Ye felt that this was all because of Luo Tian and Bai Lingling. If it weren’t for Bai Lingling allowing Luo Tian to join their group, all those unfortunate things wouldn’t have happened to him!
He hated them!
Therefore, he wanted to ravage and torture Bai Lingling!
The first step was to bring Bai Lingling into the Ouyang family. He could then do whatever he wanted!
Ouyang Long was enraged when he found out his son had become impotent. And when his son made a request, he immediately agreed to it without giving it any thought. Also, he was secretly mobilizing the elites of the Ouyang family for his own schemes.

“We’re going back to the Bai family?”
“You’re going to save my father by yourself?”
Bai Lingling stared at Luo Tian and said, “Do you know how dangerous the Black Wind Cave is? Even if you have a high cultivation realm and have good fighting skills, your current realm still isn’t enough to save my father. It’s better we do it my way. We’ll go back to Towering Cloud City together and look for Uncle Li’s help. When I left Towering Cloud City, my father told me that if anything bad happens to the Bai family, we can go to the Li family and he will help us!”
The Li family was one of the five strongest clans in Towering Cloud City.
Their strength was no less than the Bai family or the Ouyang family.
Luo Tian wasn’t too clear on the power distribution within Towering Cloud City. But there was one thing he did know, and that is a person’s mind is hard to fathom. One’s personal interests always came first!
Even if the Li family were to help, they would not put everything they had into helping. Before helping Bai Lingling, the Li family would definitely consider whether she had the potential, and whether it was worth it to help her!
Moreover, who would gamble the fate of their own family to help another family?
This was something impossible unless there were benefits involved!
Luo Tian knew very well that even if the Li Family and Bai Qi had a very close relationship, it was impossible for them to pour their entire strength into helping. He then said, “Do you want to save your father? If you do, then just listen to me.”
“You go back to the Bai family and pretend nothing happened. Say that you got separated from the group in the Martial Mountains.”
“Bai Xiong, you go to the Li family. You’re not going there to get help, but to negotiate. Ask them what conditions they want, but make sure they are clear that your father is still alive, and his cultivation has been fully restored. With such a foundation, the negotiation will be much more manageable.”
Bai Lingling looked at Luo Tian and said, ”My father is severely poisoned. Without the Dark Yin Crystal, he can’t be saved at all. Even if he is saved, he won’t be able to recover his strength!”
Luo Tian smiled mysteriously and said, ”You don’t have to worry about that. I will help your father detoxify his poison. After we succeed, remember the 150,000 xuan coins and one of my requests. It’s fine as long as you can do it, so you don’t have to bother with the rest!”
