Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! Chapter 698 Bai Clan Vs Shen Clan!
Previously on Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan!...
Back at the Shen Clan!
Bai Tianheng had been speaking nonsense for several minutes—or at least, that was how Shen Wuheng saw it.
One moment, Bai Tianheng demanded a larger amount of compensation.
Next, he questioned the Shen Clan's sincerity.
Then, just as Shen Wuheng thought they were finally getting somewhere, Bai Tianheng would suddenly raise another unreasonable demand.
Nothing seemed to satisfy him.
Rather than the Shen Clan holding a hostage, it was as if they were the ones negotiating for something.
Shen Wuheng's expression became increasingly ugly.
His patience had already reached its limit.
Finally—
"Enough!"
His voice echoed through the hall.
Bai Tianheng looked at him calmly.
Shen Wuheng's face darkened.
"Bai Tianheng, I don't think you care about your daughter at all."
His eyes narrowed.
"You're simply using this opportunity to deliberately make things difficult for my Shen Clan!"
Bai Tianheng smiled.
"You got half of that right."
Shen Wuheng frowned.
Bai Tianheng leisurely leaned back.
"I do want to make things difficult for you."
Shen Wuheng's expression froze.
What did he mean by that?
Before he could understand, Bai Tianheng's smile gradually disappeared.
The Bai Clan had already received the message.
Bai Xueqing had been rescued.
There was no longer any reason to continue wasting time.
No longer any reason to play along with the Shen Clan.
Bai Tianheng slowly stood up.
The expression on his face became cold.
"Enough talking."
Shen Wuheng's pupils contracted.
Bai Tianheng looked around the hall.
Then—
"Kill them!"
The moment those two words fell—
Boom!
Terrifying auras erupted throughout the Shen Clan.
The Bai Clan experts, who had remained calm until now, instantly moved.
Their killing intent swept through the entire area.
Shen Wuheng's expression changed drastically.
"What?!"
He had never expected the Bai Clan to suddenly attack.
They hadn't even secured Bai Xueqing's safety yet!
Was Bai Tianheng insane?
"W-Wait!"
Shen Wuheng immediately shouted.
"What are you doing?!"
Bai Tianheng looked at him coldly.
"Are you blind?"
Shen Wuheng's face turned ugly.
"Bai Tianheng! Aren't you afraid of what might happen to your daughter?"
Bai Tianheng scoffed.
"My daughter?"
A mocking smile appeared on his face.
"You still think Xueqing is in your hands?"
Shen Wuheng's expression froze.
Bai Tianheng's eyes were filled with disdain.
"Do you really think we didn't know that my daughter wasn't here?"
Shen Wuheng's pupils contracted.
Bai Tianheng continued.
"We already sent people to rescue her. And now..."
A cold killing intent flashed through his eyes.
"You'll pay!"
Shen Wuheng's expression changed repeatedly.
"Impossible!"
Although he didn't know how the Bai Clan had discovered that Bai Xueqing wasn't in the Shen Clan, Shen Wuheng still found the situation difficult to believe.
Rescuing Bai Xueqing was impossible.
The place where she was being held was extremely well hidden.
More importantly, the person guarding her was far more powerful than anyone here could imagine.
Even if the Bai Clan had somehow discovered the location, how could they possibly rescue her?
There was simply no way!
Shen Wuheng clenched his fists.
"You think I would believe such nonsense?"
Bai Tianheng merely smiled.
"Whether you believe it or not is no longer important."
His expression turned cold.
"Because you're going to die anyway."
Boom!
The Bai Clan experts immediately launched their attacks.
Shen Wuheng's face turned pale.
He finally understood.
Bai Tianheng had never intended to negotiate with him.
From the very beginning, all those unreasonable demands and endless arguments had merely been a way to stall for time.
He had been playing with him.
And Shen Wuheng had fallen for it completely.
However, there was someone else who found the news even more unbelievable than Shen Wuheng.
The senior brother of the Gu Master whom Bai Zihan had captured.
"Impossible..."
Not only was his junior brother a Golden Immortal, but he also had two refined corpses at the Golden Immortal Realm.
With that kind of strength, how could a backwater clan like the Bai Clan possibly defeat him?
Not to mention, most of the Bai Clan's forces were here.
Unless...
A terrifying possibility suddenly appeared in his mind.
"No..."
The Gu Master's expression gradually changed.
Could the Bai Clan really possess strength beyond what they had estimated?
It no longer mattered what the Gu Master's senior brother thought, nor did it matter whether Shen Wuheng believed Bai Tianheng's words.
The Bai Clan had already made their move.
And once they moved, there was no turning back.
Boom!
A deafening roar suddenly echoed through the sky.
The massive flying ship hovering above the Shen Clan began to move.
Countless cultivators within the Shen Clan raised their heads.
Their expressions changed drastically.
The spiritual cannons on the flying ship began gathering terrifying amounts of energy.
One after another, blinding lights appeared.
Shen Wuheng's pupils contracted.
"Not good!"
Before he could give another command—
Boom!
The first attack descended.
A massive beam of Qi crashed directly into the Shen Clan's protective formation.
The entire formation trembled violently.
Cracks immediately spread across the barrier.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The attacks didn't stop.
One blast after another descended from the Bai Clan's flying ship.
Each strike carried terrifying destructive power.
The Shen Clan's protective formation flickered violently.
The cultivators maintaining the formation immediately turned pale.
"Hold it!"
"Don't let the formation collapse!"
Several Shen Clan elders shouted desperately.
However, everyone could see the truth.
The formation wouldn't last long.
At most, a few minutes.
Shen Wuheng stood within the main hall, his expression becoming increasingly ugly.
His fists slowly clenched.
There was no longer any need to negotiate.
The Bai Clan had made their intentions perfectly clear.
They weren't here to bargain from the beginning.
Their only objective was to destroy the Shen Clan.
"Damn it..."
Shen Wuheng gritted his teeth.
Shen Wuheng suddenly remembered something.
His expression changed slightly as he quickly turned toward the man standing nearby.
"Sir!"
The Gu Master's senior brother slowly opened his eyes.
Shen Wuheng immediately bowed.
"What should we do?"
Now that the Bai Clan had bared its fangs, the Shen Clan could only rely on their powerful backers.
After all, the Shen Clan had dared to provoke the Bai Clan in the first place because of them.
Without their support, Shen Wuheng would never have been foolish enough to openly make an enemy of such a powerful force.
The Gu Master merely snorted.
"Hmph!"
His expression remained calm.
"Why are you panicking?"
Shen Wuheng was slightly stunned.
Outside, the attacks continued.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The entire Shen Clan shook violently.
The protective formation was already covered in cracks.
At any moment, it could collapse completely.
Of course, Shen Wuheng was worried.
The Gu Master slowly stood up.
A cold smile appeared on his face.
"No need to worry."
His gaze shifted toward the Bai Clan's flying ship hovering above them.
"Let them enter."
Shen Wuheng frowned.
The man continued.
"Once they enter the Shen Clan..."
A cold killing intent flashed through his eyes.
"We'll kill them all."
Shen Wuheng's eyes widened slightly.
A look of relief gradually appeared on his face.
The Shen Clan had been completely prepared for a war with the Bai Clan.
From the very beginning, they had expected that things might eventually reach this point.
After all, once they got their hands on Jin Yuelin, they had never intended to return Bai Xueqing.
The only difference was that they had originally hoped to use Bai Xueqing to keep the Bai Clan under control and restrict their movements somewhat.
Unfortunately, their plan has failed and the Bai Clan is coming at them with their full force.
However, that didn't mean everything was over.
Shen Wuheng's eyes gradually became cold.
"So what if they rescued her?"
They had only sent a portion of their forces to rescue Bai Xueqing.
Once the Bai Clan's main force here was destroyed, those few people would be left alone.
By then, capturing Bai Xueqing again would be easy.
The Gu Master's expression was filled with confidence.
As for what had happened to his junior brother, he wasn't entirely sure.
Perhaps his junior brother had failed in his mission.
Or perhaps, a darker possibility crossed his mind.
Perhaps the Bai Clan had actually managed to kill him.
However, the Gu Master quickly dismissed the thought.
Either way, it didn't matter much.
If his junior brother had truly failed, then he would simply clean up the mess himself.
That was all!
His gaze slowly moved across the battlefield.
Then it stopped on Bai Chu.
The Gu Master's eyes narrowed slightly.
Among the Bai Clan's forces, Bai Chu was the only one who truly caught his attention.
A Golden Immortal!
A faint smile appeared on the Gu Master's face.
"If I can refine him..."
His eyes gradually became filled with greed.
Then his strength would increase once again.
The number of Golden Immortal corpses under his control would also increase.
That alone was enough to make this battle worthwhile.
As for the others, the Gu Master swept his gaze across the remaining Bai Clan experts.
The Earth Immortals.
The Immortal Ascension Realm cultivators.
They were useful as well, but none of them were particularly valuable in his eyes.
Other than Immortal Realm, he wasn't much interested in other realms.
Of course, that didn't mean their corpses would be useless.
Their corpses could be given to his disciples.
They would make excellent refined corpses for those with weaker cultivation.
A sinister smile appeared on the Gu Master's face.
"Let there be chaos!"
