Peerless War God

"Pavilion master, the Green Dragon Hall's hall master is here." Inside the White Tiger Hall, Bai Zhenghu was in his study room listening to his subordinate's report.    

"Oh? The hall master of the Green Dragon Hall is looking for me? " Bai Zhenghu raised his eyebrows, as if he was extremely surprised. Although the four halls were all part of the Four Beasts Alliance, they were not harmonious with each other. The White Tiger Hall and the Vermillion Bird Hall had never been on good terms, but the Black Tortoise Hall was neither hot nor cold towards the other three halls. As for the Green Dragon Hall, it could be considered a neutral existence within the four halls.    

Why is this fellow looking for me now?    

Bai Zhenghu guessed in his heart, and at the same time ordered his subordinates to bring him in. Not long later, a middle-aged man wearing a cyan robe walked into the study. It was the hall master of the Green Dragon Hall, Zheng Qing.    

"What kind of wind is it today that brought Hall Master Qing here?" Looking at Zheng Qing, Bai Zhenghu stood up and said with a smile.    

Although Zheng Qing looked like a middle-aged man, he was actually much older than Bai Zhenghu. However, there was a gap between Martial Emperors as well. Zheng Qing had always been stronger than him, Bai Zhenghu, by a large margin.    

"Hehe, actually, it's nothing. I just had nothing better to do today. I just happened to walk around and come to your place, so I came to visit you." Zheng Qing really did not speak. But how could Bai Zhenghu possibly believe his words? He arrived at his side after walking for a while. If it was really like that, then White Tiger Hall's defenses would not be just for show.    

However, since Zheng Qing did not plan to immediately reveal his purpose, and was not in a hurry, he decided to continue chatting with him for a while.    

After the time it took to make a cup of tea, Zheng Qing finally shifted the topic to his goal.    

"Hall Master Bai, I heard that something happened in your White Tiger Hall recently. I wonder what happened?" Zheng Qing asked. These words immediately made Bai Zhenghu's eyebrows raise, and he followed: What? Has Hall Master Qing heard of something that isn't good for my White Tiger Hall? "    

"Hur hur, how could that be?" Zheng Qing laughed, "It's just that I have a friend from the lower realms who said that the power she built was inexplicably attacked by the White Tiger Hall, and in order to protect herself, he accidentally harmed three of the White Tiger Hall's brothers, but as for the fourth one, he was not killed by mistake, and got someone to send it back to me."    

"Oh? "There's such a thing?" Bai Zhenghu frowned, and waited for Zheng Qing to continue.    

With regards to this, Zheng Qing did not have any intention of stopping: "The White Tiger Hall Brothers that have been sent back should be called Qiu Ran, I have already asked my men to send him over to White Tiger Hall. As for the specifics, Hall Master Bai can look for him later."    

"Then what does Hall Master Qing mean by this?" Bai Zhenghu asked again. He didn't believe that Zheng Qing came here just to bring Qiu Ran back.    

"Haha, since Pavilion Master Bai has already asked, I might as well do as he says." Zheng Qing laughed out loud, "There are blade and sword that have no eyes, when you try to fight to the death, there will always be injuries and deaths. That friend of mine also doesn't want to make enemies with White Tiger Hall's brother, so he asked me to tell him from the middle class that we should let White Tiger Hall's brother go just like that. It's not appropriate for us to settle our enemies. "    

After saying that, Bai Zhenghu finally understood that Zheng Qing came over because of Chen Xiao. It was just that he did not expect Chen Xiao to actually come over and speak for him. If that was the case, then for the time being, he would not be able to take care of Chen Xiao.    

"Does Hall Master Qing mean that my White Tiger Hall is easy to bully? You think that you can persuade me to let this go? Then the lives of three of my White Tiger Hall brothers were given away for nothing? " Bai Zhenghu showed an angry expression.    

"No, no. Hall Master Bai, you're wrong. That friend of mine isn't without sincerity either. " After saying that, Zheng Qing took out a storage ring, and handed it over to Bai Zhenghu. "There are three hundred high-grade divine stones and fifty Exquisite God Stone inside. I wonder what Pavilion Master Bai thinks? "    

When Zheng Qing talked about the items in the storage ring, Bai Zhenghu couldn't help but be shocked. With so many divine stones, even if placed in front of him, it would still be a resource that couldn't be underestimated. He never thought that Zheng Qing's friend would actually be willing to take out so many things.    

With that, Bai Zhenghu started to hesitate.    

Originally, according to his plans, Zheng Qing shouldn't have interfered. As long as he could arrange for a few more subordinates to go over, regardless of whether he successfully brought Chen Xiao back here or not, he was confident that he could push the blame onto the Xuanyuan Sect. At that time, it would be completely easy to cause a fight between the Four Beast Alliance and the Xuanyuan Sect.    

But now, Zheng Qing had intervened. If Bai Zhenghu did not give him face, he would not be able to justify it.    

"Good!" Since Hall Master Qing has already said so, I shall accept this matter first. However, my White Tiger Hall's brothers have always wanted revenge. The only thing I can do now is to do my best to suppress my brothers and not act recklessly. If they were to carry me on their back and run out for revenge, that is not something that I can handle. "    

Bai Zhenghu's words were indeed good to scheme against. The meaning behind the words was that on the surface, he would not make a move against Chen Xiao, but he could not predict what would happen. When that time came, perhaps some of his brothers in the White Tiger Hall would not be able to see it, and would be able to run over to himself.    

"Hehe …" I still believe that you can keep an eye on your subordinates from saying those words of Hall Master Bai. " Zheng Qing replied back to Bai Zhenghu with this sentence. As for the meaning behind it, he believed that Bai Zhenghu was well aware of it.    

"Then I'll take my leave first." After placing the storage ring on the table, Zheng Qing no longer had the intention to stay. He got up and walked out of the study room.    

Seeing Zheng Qing leave, Bai Zhenghu shouted towards the outside: "Men, bring Qiu Ran over here right now." As he shouted these words, Bai Zhenghu's expression clearly became colder ….    

Not long later, Qiu Ran was brought over. He didn't have any injuries on his body, but his spirit seemed to be exhausted.    

"Speak, what happened? I clearly told you that you only need to capture those close to that kid and bring them back. "Why did it end up like this?" Bai Zhenghu's voice was low and deep. Someone who was familiar with him knew that this was his sign of anger.    

"Please punish the Hall Master. We did not follow his instructions." Qiu Ran kneeled down immediately, lowering his head deeply.    

"Humph!" Bai Zhenghu coldly snorted, "I don't have the mood to punish you right now, quickly tell me what happened. I want to know why you were captured and sent back to the Green Dragon Hall. "    

"Hall Master, that brat has a Martial Emperor protecting him. At a critical moment, it was that Martial Emperor who captured me." Qiu Ran then recounted the entire process of him being caught by the President Xuan and sent back.    

However, he only came back to his senses when he returned to the Green Dragon Hall. As for what had happened in the middle, he didn't know at all.
