Chapter 377 - 377 Escape
377 Escape
Bai Ling also wanted to personally apologize to Bai Mu. Back then, it was also because of her that Bai Mu wanted to become stronger and took shortcuts, which eventually led him astray.
Xu Qing didn’t expect Bai Mu to really be lured out. As expected, love made people lose their rationality.
“Senior Brother…” Bai Ling looked at Bai Mu, who was locked in the iron cage, guiltily.
Bai Mu’s eyes revealed a hint of resentment and indignance. “You actually joined forces with outsiders to deal with me?”
“No, I…” Bai Ling hesitated.
“Hehe…” Bai Mu laughed sinisterly.
“Bai Mu, don’t blame Bai Ling. This was my idea. Before our mentor died, he said that if you do anything outrageous again, he’ll let me clean up his mess.” Bai Xian couldn’t help but defend Bai Ling.
“Bai Xian, who do you think you are? If not for you, how could I have been separated from Bai Ling? How could I have been chased out of the sect?! You despicable person, hypocrite! Put away your disgusting hypocritical look! Moreover, I’m no longer in the sect, so what right do you have to use the excuse of cleaning up the sect to deal with me? I’ve already cut ties with the sect!” Bai Mu said coldly.
Bai Ling lowered her head in pity. She had let Bai Mu down. After her parents had been killed by their enemies, she went up the mountain and became Bai Qianshan’s disciple. She had never given up on taking revenge and practiced martial arts and poison day and night. When Bai Mu saw how exhausted she was, he wanted to help her. However, he wasn’t capable enough, so he started learning dark martial arts techniques. Later on, he was discovered by Bai Xian, who tried his best to dissuade him. Bai Mu said that if Bai Xian didn’t tell their mentor, he would stop practicing dark martial arts techniques.
However, their mentor still found out. Bai Mu thought that Bai Xian had betrayed him, so he resented him. Later on, he heard that their mentor had asked Bai Ling to marry Bai Xian, so he injured Bai Xian and ran down the mountain.
“A teacher for a day is a father for life. I won’t forget my mentor’s orders! Bai Mu, don’t blame me. You can only blame yourself for being stubborn.” Thinking of how so many babies had died at Bai Mu’s hands, Bai Xian was furious. Those were all innocent children. Why did they study medicine? Wasn’t it to save people?
“Senior Brother, I’m sorry,” Bai Ling said guiltily.
“How hypocritical. You, Bai Xian, and Bai Qianshan are all the same! You’re all liars!” Bai Mu smiled sinisterly.
“Oh no, he wants to escape!” Xu Qing was watching Bai Mu intently. From his behavior, she knew that he wanted to escape and was stalling for time, although she didn’t know how Bai Mu could escape from this sturdy iron cage.
Bai Xian and Bai Ling hurriedly tried to subdue Bai Mu.
Bai Mu smiled proudly. “Bai Xian, do you think I have been cultivating martial arts skills for nothing all these years?” Bai Mu wasn’t afraid of Bai Xian and Bai Ling’s attacks at all.
Bai Xian and the others were anxious, but Ao Jie was even more anxious. He wanted to use Bai Mu to find out more about his own body.
However, Bai Mu’s martial arts technique was really too elusive. He seemed to have turned into a paper effigy and escaped from the cage.
Worried that she would be captured by Bai Mu, Xu Qing didn’t move forward, but she didn’t plan to let Bai Mu leave just like that. With a slight movement of her fingers, some medicinal powder landed on Bai Mu’s body.
As Bai Mu and Bai Xian fought, they naturally didn’t notice Xu Qing.
“Bai Xian!” Bai Ling suddenly exclaimed. Then, she pounced forward without hesitation and stood in front of Bai Xian.
“Pfft!” Bai Ling spat out a mouthful of blood after being smacked in the back by Bai Mu.
“Bai Ling!” Bai Xian had a frightened expression as he helped the fallen Bai Ling up. He didn’t expect Bai Mu’s martial arts skills to become so powerful.
After Bai Mu gave them a vicious look, he left quickly. Even Ao Jie and the others couldn’t stop Bai Mu.
As Bai Xian hugged the dying Bai Ling, he panicked.
When Xu Qing saw Bai Xian’s panicked state, she hurriedly took Bai Ling’s pulse. “There’s a sinister aura in her body that’s constantly attacking her internal organs. Calm down quickly and use your internal energy to help her chase the sinister aura away!” Xu Qing was helpless when it came to internal energy.
When Bai Xian heard Xu Qing’s words, he suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly carried Bai Ling to her room.
“Ao Jie, I’m afraid Bai Xian can’t chase it away on his own. Go help him.” Xu Qing was afraid that Bai Xian would be too nervous and mess things up. At that time, both Bai Xian and Bai Ling’s lives would be in danger.
Ao Jie, who was immersed in his own thoughts, hurriedly ran in when he heard Xu Qing call him.
Xu Qing’s expression was a little solemn. Since all of them were so distraught, she should guard them. Fortunately, nothing happened in the end, but Bai Xian and Bai Ling both fell asleep.
“Ao Jie, don’t worry too much.” Xu Qing patted Ao Jie’s shoulder and comforted him.
