Bai Jintang, the arrogant young master of the Bai Family from Barbaric City, revealed his obsessive pursuit of Su Yu, who was disguised as a man. Luo Qingtong noticed Bai Jintang's hidden malice and warned Su Yu to be careful. Su Yu believes Bai Jintang will soon move on, but plans to stay indoors to avoid causing trouble for Luo Qingtong. Luo Qingtong then revealed her true reason for visiting the Extreme West Wilderness: the Holy King Tomb.

The group was making its way towards Tianxie’s stronghold.

Meanwhile, Bai Jintang received intelligence from his subordinates who had been dispatched to investigate.

"Young Master, word is that the young man refers to himself as Ye Jiu. We can't ascertain his exact origins, but Elder Pan shows him significant deference."

"All members of the Cheng Family were eliminated by him simply to gain this Ye Jiu's favor."

"Furthermore, the literary duel that the Cheng Family had planned to humiliate Su Yu with was also thwarted by the youth known as Ye Jiu."

The Bai Family members relayed the gathered information, a sense of wonder filling them regarding Su Yu and the others' fortunate turn of events.

The young master's original scheme was meticulously crafted and seemingly foolproof.

The plan involved Su Yu and the Tianxie members being cornered, while the Cheng Family, already harboring animosity towards Su Yu, held hostages from the Su Family, with Elder Pan secretly backing them...

Su Yu and his companions appeared destined for a terrible fate.

At that opportune moment, the young master would arrive with the Bai Family contingent, feigning a relinquishment of the Bai Family's support and subsequently "persuading" Elder Pan to relent.

They would then eliminate the Cheng Family members and rescue the Su Family hostages, thereby alleviating Su Yu's distress. Such a heroic act would surely win Su Yu's heart, wouldn't it?

Even if Su Yu were male, this profound gratitude and sense of protection would leave him utterly pliable, allowing the young master to command his every desire!

Moreover, it's rumored that this Su Yu is fiercely loyal to the enigmatic figure presiding over Tianxie.

By saving the people of Tianxie and extricating them from peril, the young master would undoubtedly earn their immense gratitude and secure their compliance with his will, wouldn't he?

The subordinates had witnessed Bai Jintang employ similar tactics numerous times before, and they had never failed!

Yet, this time, the plan had gone disastrously awry due to the involvement of Su Yu.

Not only was the scheme intercepted midway, but they had also suffered a humiliating defeat.

The sight of Su Yu willingly ensconced in the arms of that youth, Ye Jiu, was certain to ignite the young master's fury!

After all, when confronted by the young master, Su Yu offered nothing but icy indifference.

Yet, in the presence of this young man, Su Yu acted so docile and compliant.

How could the young master possibly remain calm?

It was precisely this question that fueled his eagerness to uncover the young man's background.

For that crucial, family-assigned mission... they had been meticulously planning and waiting for so long, and the net was nearly closed...

It was imperative that the young master did not allow this incident to jeopardize critical business!

"Hmph! Ye Jiu!"

Bai Jintang's gaze coldly swept over the report his subordinate presented, a vivid image of Su Yu nestled comfortably in Luo Qingtong’s embrace flashing through his mind.

An inferno of rage ignited within his chest.

It wasn't that he harbored deep affections for Su Yu and couldn't contain his anger.

Rather, it was the stinging humiliation of his carefully laid plans being utterly thwarted, despite his fervent attentions towards Su Yu!

Su Yu had turned away, only to throw himself into the embrace of an unremarkable young man.

This individual possessed neither striking looks nor any discernible family background. Even if Elder Pan was intimidated by him, so what?

Perhaps he was merely a gifted disciple from a prominent Sect in the Southern Domain!

While Elder Pan might fear him, Bai Jintang certainly did not!

With this thought, Bai Jintang's eyes darkened further.

Nevertheless, exercising caution, he inquired of his subordinate, "Did Elder Pan mention anything about his background?"

If the individual proved truly formidable, Bai Jintang would forgo any thoughts of retribution, even in the face of such a profound humiliation.

After all, he still had significant family matters to attend to and could not afford to court unnecessary complications!

Furthermore, within the harsh expanse of the Extreme West Wilderness, the Bai Family's influence was not absolute.

"No." The subordinate shook his head, responding, "We questioned Elder Pan, but he refused to disclose the person's identity, merely cautioning us against provoking him!"
