Chapter 1104: How About Accompanying Me Tonight?
Deep into the night, there were very few people on the streets.
This seemed like a very normal night without anything special going on.
There weren’t strong winds, rain, or thunder and lightning. But there was a sense of impending doom on this quiet night.
Li family.
A middle-aged man with a pale face was spitting out several mouthfuls of black blood in succession. He then said in pain, “You, you, why?”
The middle-aged man was the current patriarch of the Li family.
He was just like Zhang Yaojie, an elite monster in Luo Tian’s eyes.
The only difference was that Luo Tian had been injured trying to a.s.sa.s.sinate the Li family’s patriarch. And his injuries weren’t light. If he hadn’t attacked this Li family patriarch in such a crazy frenzy that caused the guy to be in shock, most likely, he would have handed over his life this very night.
Everything calmed down now.
Luo Tian slowly walked over with a smile and said, “There’s no major reason. I just simply want to kill you.”
After saying that, Luo Tian didn’t bother saying anything more. He slashed out with Heaven Sword and chopped off the Li family patriarch’s head.
Luo Tian didn’t hang around and quickly left the Li manor, disappearing into a dark alley.
“Puff~…”
After returning to the Bai family, Luo Tian couldn’t hold it in anymore. The blood in his chest churned before he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Fuuu~… fuuu~… The Martial Void realm is truly strong…”
Luo Tian suffered both outside and internal injuries.
After all, he was only in the Condensation Element realm. Even if he cultivated various powerful martial skills, he would not have been a match for these Martial Void rankers if he hadn’t used them all. Luo Tian practically disregarded his life when fighting the Li family patriarch. It was because of this that he managed to subdue the guy and kill him.
“Luo Tian!” Bai Lingling rushed over.
Bai Lingling had been waiting for Luo Tian at the Bai family’s main entrance ever since he disappeared into the night.
She had been anxious the entire time.
After seeing Luo Tian stumbling back and spitting out a mouthful of black blood, her heart sank. She didn’t care that there were two Bai family disciples guarding the door and just pounced toward him. She supported Luo Tian in her arms and said anxiously, “Where have you been?! You scared me to death! Why did you go out without saying a word? Don’t you know that I was very worried about you? Who hurt you so badly?”
It is a source of happiness when there is someone worried about you at home.
Luo Tian fell against Bai Lingling’s twin peaks and said with a smile, “I’m fine. I will be good after some rest.”
At this time, Bai Xiong, Lin Dong, and Bai Qi came out.
Bai Qi’s gaze showed his surprise before he muttered out loud, “Little girl, you are really quick to take care of business. Sigh~, a grown daughter can’t be kept unmarried for long.”
Bai Lingling pouted and said, “Father, you’re still making fun of me when Luo Tian is already injured in such a state.”
Bai Xiong went over and shouted, “Boss, who beat you like this?! Tell me, and I will go take care of them!”
Bai Lingling rolled her eyes at him and said, “Since he isn’t their match, how are you going to take care of them?”
“Uhhh…”
Bai Xiong scratched his head and said, “I’m just saying… heh heh…”
Luo Tian didn’t say too much and said to Bai Qi, “I’m fine. There’s no need to worry about me. I will be good once I return to my room and get some rest. It would be great if you could give me some medicinal pills that can replenish one’s yuan energy.”
Luo Tian had consumed a lot of yuan energy after making two a.s.sa.s.sination attempts tonight.
What he needed to do right now was to use Super Regeneration on himself. But since he didn’t have much yuan energy left, he needed the pills to replenish it. Luo Tian then said to himself, “I need to practice my alchemy skills as soon as possible. It’s fine when I’m in the Bai family, but if I’m in an unfamiliar place and can’t replenish my yuan energy, I will be screwed big time.”
Bai Qi replied, “I will immediately go have people to prepare some.”
“Ling’er, help Luo Tian back to his room to rest.”
“Xiong’er and Lin Dong, you two secretly monitor the activities of the four great families. Immediately report back if you notice any strange movements. Tonight is too eerily quiet. I’m worried that the four great families might sneak attack us.” Bai Qi said in a worried tone.
Luo Tian chuckled to himself, “Sneak attack? When will they have time to sneak attack us?”
“The Zhang and Li family are most likely in a complete mess. They are probably discussing how to get revenge for their patriarchs, so there’s no way they have time to sneak attack the Bai family.”
But Luo Tian didn’t tell them he had gotten rid of the patriarchs of the Zhang and Li family.
He had no plans of telling them.
The fewer people who know about this matter, the better. Once a hint of it leaks out, then everything that Luo Tian did tonight will be all for nothing. Every one of the four great families has over a hundred years of foundation, so they will not collapse just because they lost a patriarch.
Whether the four families can still form an alliance will depend on tomorrow.
“Got it!”
Bai Xiong and Lin Dong quickly disappeared into the night.
Bai Qi rushed off to their medicinal hall.
Bai Lingling supported Luo Tian and walked all the way to his courtyard. She then lectured, “From now on, I don’t want you to take such risks. If you really have to go out, you have to bring me along. Otherwise, you are not allowed to go out on your own.”
Luo Tian smiled, “Don’t worry, I won’t die.”
When the word “die” was said, Bai Lingling covered his mouth with her hand and said, “You’re not allowed to say that word. It’s inauspicious.”
Bai Lingling looked even more charming under the moonlight. Two strands of hair were fluttering against her face, and her white dress was swaying to a light breeze. Her beauty somehow made Luo Tian feel a sense of peace.
However, Luo Tian couldn’t fully feel peaceful.
The main reason was that Bai Lingling’s huge twin peaks were pushing up against his chest, and her two little raisins were tickling him. His l.u.s.t grew, and the killing intent from his crotch surged. He gave a gentle smile before wrapping his arms around Bai Lingling and whispering, “How about you keep me company tonight?”
Bai Lingling half-heartedly fell into Luo Tian’s arms.
When Luo Tian spoke, his breath blew on her ear, tickling her and making her heart flutter. A blush rose to her face as she broke free from Luo Tian’s arms. She then said shyly, “As if I would want to…”
Usually, when girls say those words in such a manner, they usually mean the opposite.
Luo Tian revealed a wicked smile as he knew exactly what Bai Lingling meant. He then said to himself, “Last time, I was unconscious in the cave, so I couldn’t experience the bliss of making love to her. Tonight, I must really savor the experience carefully!”
Most importantly, Luo Tian wanted to level up.
He needed large amounts of yuan energy in order to heal his injuries.
If that’s the case, he might as well level up and completely restore all his yuan energy. There would be nothing to worry about once all his injuries were healed.
Another thing was that the Zhang and Li families were taken care of, but he had to think of a way to take care of the Ouyang family as well.
Luo Tian was going to break up the alliance of the four great families in one night. But even if the other three families do not send any troops in the morning, the Deng family will still attack the Bai family on all fronts. Otherwise, where will Old Man Deng put his face?
Therefore, he had to level up!
