Chapter 49: White Bone Sun Yuan Mingles In, Smoke and Clouds Rise from the Alliance

  The internet is down, let's send it out first!...

  As it approached noon, the Justice Manor was crowded with people. The more important guests had already arrived, so the gatekeeper could relax a bit. As they leaned against the door, discussing some interesting stories and boasting about the big shots they met today, a mysterious figure in a black robe walked up to them. Without saying a word, a golden invitation flew out of his hand and landed steadily on the gatekeeper's body.

  The gatekeeper was taken aback for a moment, then immediately showed a respectful expression. Although he didn't know the identity of the visitor, judging from this skill alone, it seemed that he wasn't an unknown person.

  The guard quickly opened the post and took a look, immediately revealing a fearful expression on his face. After reading the post, he realized that the person in front of him was actually the infamous White Bone True Person from the Jianghu world. It is said that this person is both righteous and evil, when being righteous, even if an annoying mosquito bites him, he wouldn't kill it, but when being evil, even a three-year-old child would be killed without mercy. According to Jianghu rumors, White Bone True Person has already reached the pinnacle of a top-notch master, almost reaching the level of internal energy external release.

  "Senior, please follow me." The guard left two cold sweats on his forehead. Facing the powerful and mysterious giant, he didn't dare to be slow for a moment. Although this was the territory of the Orthodox Alliance, he didn't think that White Bone wouldn't dare to kill him. Perhaps even if White Bone killed him, the Orthodox Alliance might not say anything. At this time, he only hoped to meet the kind side of White Bone Zhenren.

  "You lead the way!" A hoarse voice came out, and the guard's face turned joyful after hearing it. It was clear that the White Bone Demon in front of him was in a benevolent state. According to legend, when the voice was hoarse, the White Bone Demon was a Buddha, but when the voice became soft and beautiful, the White Bone Demon was a demon.

  Soon, Zhou Lang in the hall received the news, he rushed to an old man with a white beard beside him and bowed his hands, saying "There is a noble guest arriving, I will go to receive him, please forgive me for any delay." This old man with a white beard was actually the White Haired Old Monster invited by Zhou Liang.

  "Oh, what kind of person has such a large quantity? Actually wants to trouble Lord Zhou?" White Xiao Old Monster put down the wine cup in his hand, kissed the maid in his arms once, and asked with some curiosity.

  "He's a senior figure, and I just sent him an invitation to try my luck. Unexpectedly, he really came! As for this person's name, everyone has heard of it before - he is the White Bone True Person!" Zhou Lang took a deep breath, stood up, and said with some pride, being able to invite the White Bone True Person proved that his weight was indeed not light.

  The scene suddenly erupted in a commotion. "How interesting, let's go take a look together, it's been ages since I've seen White Bone Old Second, and I'm feeling a bit nostalgic. We haven't met in years, I wonder if his skills have improved?" White Xiao Old Monster slightly hesitated, with a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, as he began to suspect the purpose of White Bone True Person's arrival. He immediately thought of the treasure map hidden in his bosom and couldn't sit still anymore.

  "That's the best, I think Senior and White Bone Senior are old acquaintances, now meeting here, isn't it a great fate." Zhou Lang, even if his city was deeper, couldn't guess the true meaning of White Xiao's words at this moment, and instead said with a happy face.

  Soon, everyone came out to greet him. From a distance, Bai Xiao Lao Guai shouted, "Bai Gu, you're still the same as ever, always covering up and hiding something! What's the meaning of this?" As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared in front of Bai Gu Zhen Ren, who was none other than Bai Xiao Lao Guai himself.

  "Good work!" A hoarse voice came over, and Bai Gu's footsteps stopped, staring at Bai Xiao Lao Gu without moving.

  "How is White Bone? It's been years since we last met, I wonder if your skills have improved?" Seeing White Bone acting like this, a hint of strangeness flashed in the eyes of Bai Xiao, the old freak. According to what he knew about White Bone's temperament, being shown techniques by someone in front of him would normally make him unable to resist comparing notes. But the real White Bone before his eyes not only made him feel uneasy with her aura, but also had such a strong sense of determination!

  "Although there is some progress, it's still not as good as yours." Bai Gu Zhēn Rén was speechless for a moment. No! It should be Sun Yuan who was speechless. Yesterday, after leaving the Righteous Alliance, Sun Yuan met someone in a tavern who was completely covered in black robes. The person's sleeve flashed, revealing a golden invitation card inside their clothes. Sun Yuan, who had been worried about how to sneak into the conference, suddenly lit up.

  The infamous White Bone True Person, renowned throughout the land, had caught Sun Yuan's attention. This time, White Bone True Person's cultivation had indeed reached the pinnacle of a top-notch expert. The main purpose of his visit to Zhengyi Mountain Villa was to establish his dominance, but he unfortunately encountered Sun Yuan. In the eyes of this hundred-year-old old demon, even top-notch experts were nothing but fleeting clouds. As a result, White Bone True Person was quickly caught by Sun Yuan and, after being beaten up, lay silently weeping in a foul-smelling ditch.

  "Oh, Green Bone True Person is quite good?" The strange color in Bai Xiao's eyes became even heavier, because in his impression, White Bone True Person would never yield.

  Just as the two were at a stalemate, Zhou Lang led the crowd to finally arrive, and he also noticed the eerie atmosphere on the scene, so he immediately stepped forward to mediate, if these two started fighting first, then this alliance would be successful, but its effect would be greatly discounted.

  Perhaps it was the aura of the white bones that made the old monster Bai Xiao wary, with a hint of Zhou Lang's trickery. The old monster Bai Xiao took advantage of the momentum to slide down and did not continue to interrogate the true person of the white bones. A doubt had already been deeply buried in his heart, but he did not know that this decision would at least prolong his life for some time.

  Just now, Sun Yuan, who was somewhat annoyed by this old man, almost took action, fortunately he clearly remembered his identity and in such a situation he really couldn't expose himself, otherwise it would attract the attention of the cultivators, and his plan to use the Righteous Alliance to find Sun Wukong would probably be ruined!

  Seeing someone coming forward to mediate, Sun Yuan forcibly suppressed his desire to take action and silently followed Zhou Lang as he walked forward. Zhou Lang was also a discerning person, and earlier he hadn't known any better, but now seeing that White Bone and White Xiao were clearly not on the same side, he arranged a separate seat for White Bone True Person. For a time, the scene became unexpectedly harmonious.

  After everyone had eaten and drunk, the sun rose to its peak. Zhou Lang stood up, looked at the sky and said: "Everyone please be quiet for a moment. This time I am holding a righteous alliance ceremony, and all of you Jianghu friends can come to witness it, I feel very honored. At this moment, it is approaching noon, which is the time for my righteous alliance ceremony. Please ask everyone to witness it on the side."

  "Zhou Bangzhu was being polite."..."We will naturally do so, don't worry, Bangzhu."..."Whoever dares to make trouble is not giving us Mo Bei San Lang's face, Zhou Bangzhu doesn't need to worry."

  Full of wine and food, the Jianghu heroes patted their chests and shouted that in this grand scene of Jianghu, as long as they had some achievements, they could become a kind of capital for them in the future. Therefore, a group of Jianghu people hastily agreed, but in fact, if something really happened, the first to run would be them.

  "That's all for today, thank you everyone." Zhou Lang was very familiar with this set, and he also knew that few of these flattering words were genuine. However, the Jianghu world was like this - it was only because of these fame-seeking individuals that some young heroes had the opportunity to stand out.

  "Come on, set up the stage, I declare that the Justice Alliance Conference is officially starting. Please invite the 18 captains to come on stage!" Zhou Lang shouted loudly. The crowd of helpers who had been prepared in advance pulled open the huge red cloth in the square, and a seven or eight meter high wooden stage appeared before everyone's eyes. From a distance, it could be seen that one side of the stage was set with 18 chairs, which should be prepared for the 18 captains.

  In the center of the arena was a dragon-shaped chair, prepared for the leader. Behind the leader were ten chairs lined up in a row, prepared for heavyweight guests. After Zhou Lang's declaration, eighteen men with red silk wrapped around their heads and fierce expressions rose from the steps on both sides to the center of the arena.

  "Two seniors, please move to the Righteousness Arena for me to observe the ritual of the Righteous Alliance!" Zhou Lang saw that the 18 Helmsmen had already taken their seats and hastily came to the front of Bai Xiao Old Monster and Bai Gu True Person, bowing his body in invitation.

  "Hmph, White Bone Old Monster, dare you compare your speed with mine?" White Xiao Old Monster glanced at another table and issued a challenge to Sun Yuan.

  Sun Yuan rubbed his chin, nodded, and during the banquet, many Jianghu figures plucked up their courage to come to Sun Yuan's table to toast him. In this back-and-forth, Sun Yuan had figured out the identities of the people present, at least he had figured out the identity of the old man with white whiskers. Upon learning that his opponent was Bai Xiao Lao Guai, Sun Yuan naturally didn't have any more reservations about taking action. Before the formal main course arrived, Sun Yuan also didn't mind giving him a taste of bitter head.

  "Good!" The old freak Bai Xiao flicked his sleeve and walked out of the great hall, seeing Sun Yuan's long sleeves fluttering as he closely followed behind. With a loud whoosh, Bai Xiao opened up his body shape and directly sprinted towards the high platform.

  Looking back at Sun Yuan, he was not inferior in any way. His body twisted and turned, and with a few steps, he had already caught up with Bai Xiao's old monster, who was known for his lightness kung fu. Seeing this, Bai Xiao's eyes flashed with a fierce gaze, but his heart was filled with surprise and doubt. As far as he knew, the White Bone True Person sect was not famous for its light body skills, so how could Sun Yuan catch up with him?

  Two figures shot out like arrows, and the scene's heroes felt a shock in their hearts. The fact that White Haired Old Monster had such cultivation was acceptable to everyone, but what they didn't expect was that White Bone True Person also possessed such speed.

  "It's really a true master!" What surprised the people on the scene even more was that, in such a rapid run, Bai Xiao Lao Guai could actually speak with his mouth open. Bai Xiao Lao Guai's voice was full of energy, it was really hard to imagine that this kind of voice came out during the rapid sprint, "Bai Gu Old Second, I can speed up now, you still need to practice your lightness skill for another 10,000 years!"

  As soon as the words fell, Bai Xiao's figure changed suddenly. He was seen dashing left and right, like a wild rabbit running wildly. The crowd of Jianghu heroes saw this and hastily opened their eyes wide, staring tightly at Bai Xiao. Although Bai Xiao's movements were strange, this was actually his White Rabbit Charging Stance, which he used to dominate the Jianghu. Anyone who had heard of this stance knew its significance - it represented absolute speed and the despair of one's enemies!

  As expected, after displaying his ultimate skill, the already extremely fast Bai Xiao's speed suddenly increased by 10%, and in just a few steps, he left Sun Yuan far behind. However, the scene that made the on-site audience drop their jaws soon unfolded. It turned out that although Bai Gu was initially left behind, he didn't seem to make any moves, but after a while, he somehow managed to catch up with Bai Xiao and they were now running neck and neck.

  Bai Xiao the old monster was like a desperate big white rabbit, constantly dashing left and right, while Sun Yuan's White Bone True Person was like a large black dog, neither warm nor cold, closely following behind the rabbit, ready to bite at any moment. His demeanor was even more leisurely than Bai Xiao's, causing the scene to erupt in a collective gasp of shock.

  A few seconds later, the two of them seemed to have grown wings and jumped up from where they were, a height of six or seven zhangs was nothing in front of them, the two of them just lightly jumped over the height of six or seven zhangs, almost at the same time landing on the stage.

  When Zhou Lang arrived, Bai Xiao and Sun Yuan were still in a standoff. Seeing the situation, he hurried forward to mediate, but as for who ultimately won, judging from their expressions, no one dared to ask.

  Although Bai Xiao Lao Guai sat quietly behind Zhou Lang, his heart was turbulent. The impact of Bai Gu's true person on him was too great. Judging from the previous momentum, Bai Gu's true person might still have some strength left, but he had exhausted all his strength. In his own most skilled field, he was surpassed by others. At this moment, it was not mentioned how suffocated Bai Xiao Lao Guai felt in his heart, and his desire to obtain the treasure became even stronger.

  Soon, the Justice Alliance meeting officially began. One by one, the leaders of each faction took turns telling the crowd about the impressive things they had accomplished over the past year, eliciting bursts of amazement from the audience. To Sun Yuan, this wasn't a meeting at all - it was clearly just a report session, a performance review for the past year.

  Finally, when Sun Yuan was about to fall asleep, the long-winded boasting activity finally came to an end. Seeing that all the boat owners had finished speaking, Zhou Lang stood up and said, "In the past, our alliance would have ended here, but today's alliance is not so simple. This is also why I invited Bai Xiao Lao Zu and Bai Gu Zhēn Rén to attend the ceremony."

  "A week ago, our leader Chen Li risked his life to save his wife Bai Wuduan and single-handedly infiltrated the Blood Evil Sect's headquarters. Although he managed to rescue Bai Xiaoyi, he himself was killed in the process. Leader Chen was a man of great loyalty and righteousness, and he had saved Zhou Lang's life before. This debt of gratitude Zhou Lang cannot repay alone, but the Blood Evil Sect is an extremely powerful sect, making it difficult for Zhou Lang to take revenge by himself. Therefore, Zhou Lang, being not talented, wants to rally the brothers in the gang to avenge Leader Chen together!"

  After hearing Zhou Lang's words, the 18 helmsmen had their own thoughts. At this time, a guard standing next to Zhou Lang stepped forward and said, "Everyone understands Master Zhou's feelings, but the Blood Slasher Gang is a huge entity. We want to avenge ourselves, but we must work together with one heart. However, after losing Master Chen, the Righteous Alliance can be described as a dragon without a head. Therefore, I suggest that Master Zhou take over as the leader of the Righteous Alliance, so that he can more effectively unify the forces of the Righteous Alliance and avenge Master Chen!"

  For a moment, the following was silent. At this time, Bai Xiao Lao Guai got Zhou Lang's hint, he looked at Sun Yuan who was shrouded in black robe and stood up saying "Regarding Chen Bang Zhu's matter, I am deeply regretful, but just like what that brother said earlier, Xue Sha Bang is a huge entity, even I don't dare to underestimate it. Therefore, selecting a new leader and integrating the power of Zheng Yi Meng is extremely important. And Lao Fu and Zhou Lang Bang Zhu are also old friends who have known each other for a long time, and I admire him very much. As for him taking over Zheng Yi Meng, Lao Fu completely agrees."

  "Thank you, White Xiao Laozu, for your praise. In fact, Zhou Lang shouldn't have brought this up at this time, but I couldn't just stand by and watch the Blood Slaughter Gang flaunt their power over our Righteous Alliance. If Chen Bangzhu's great revenge is not avenged, what face do I, Zhou Lang, have to stand in the world? Although our forces are weak now, I believe that as long as we all work together, with the help of White Xiao Laozu and Bai Gu Zhiren, Chen Bangzhu's great revenge is not without hope." After White Xiao finished speaking, Zhou Lang gave Sun Yuan a look, but Sun Yuan seemed to have not seen it, remaining unmoved. Having no choice, Zhou Lang could only stand up himself.

  As soon as Zhou Lang finished speaking, the stage was filled with applause, and a group of Jianghu figures were eager to flatter him. Sun Yuan glanced at the location where Bai Wudang was sitting, but saw that his men were quiet, and with Sun Yuan's discerning eye, he immediately recognized Chen Li sitting behind Bai Wudang.

  "Since everyone has no opinion, Zhou Lang's matter is settled. From now on, he will be the new leader of our Justice Alliance!" One of the eighteen helmsmen who was close to Zhou Lang stood up, which was the first time a helmsman had spoken up, causing the other seventeen helmsmen to hesitate for a moment.

  Just as things were about to go in the expected direction, Zhou Lang couldn't help but want to add fuel to the fire when a soft and charming voice sounded, "Wait, I disagree with this decision."

  Looking at the woman walking to the center of the stage with a swing, followed by a man in a cloak, Zhou Lang's heart couldn't help but tremble. For these few days, Bai Wuduan had quieted down, and he thought that was the end of it. Unexpectedly, this woman stood out now. What did she want to do? Was she still daring to be unruly at this occasion?

  At this moment, Zhou Lang had already ridden the tiger and couldn't get off. He had to force himself to walk out and say, "Madam Bai, everyone is doing this for Mr. Zun's revenge, don't you have any other opinions?" At the same time, Zhou Lang kept making eye contact with Bai Wudao, his eyes full of questioning gaze.

  Bai Wuduan didn't reason with Zhou Lang, but instead looked around in all directions. After a long while, she said sternly, "At this point, do you still want to coerce me, Zhou Lang? I'll tell you, it's impossible! My husband Chen Li, he's not dead, he's back! Today, let's see how you explain yourself to the world!"

  As soon as Bai Wuduan's voice fell, the man in the cloak behind him lifted his cloak to reveal his face. Wasn't this the leader of the gang, Chen Li?

  "Boss, Boss?" Zhou Lang muttered in disbelief, "You're actually still alive?"

  "Haha, aren't you disappointed that I'm not dead? What else do you have to say this time?" Chen Li let out a cold hum and took a step forward, shielding Bai Wusuo behind him.

  A cold sweat trickled down Zhou Lang's forehead, Chen Li had actually returned, and for a moment he was stunned, but then a voice pulled him out of the nine-layered hell, only to hear a young man's voice ring out, "Big brother, who is this? Why are you impersonating the leader?"

  As soon as Zhou Lang regained his composure from the initial shock, he quickly found a way to respond. He suddenly took a step back and retreated to Bai Xiao's side, spitting out a mouthful of blood. "Blood Slaughter Great Method? Bai Wudang, you actually joined the Blood Slaughter Gang and even found someone who thinks like the gang leader. What do you want to do?"

  "Bai Xiao Lao Zu, please take action to capture this Blood Evil Sect's spy. I'm ashamed that my disciple was hit by his Blood Evil Great Technique and now his true energy is like boiling oil. Please, elder, take charge." Zhou Lang suddenly knelt on the ground and started knocking his head loudly.

  Sun Yuan watched the commotion with a tongue-tied expression, and such rapid reactions were rare even in his past life. People like this were usually heroes of their time, but their ultimate fate was always tragic because they were too deep and cunning. In the end, except for themselves, there was no one else they could trust.

  "Chen Li's composure and Zhou Lang's were like the difference between a primary school student and a university student, so he was immediately left speechless!"

  "Hmph, the Blood Evil Sect is quite bold, daring to come here with me present. Don't worry, Young Master Zhou, I didn't see anything and that's it, but since I've encountered this, I'll naturally have to take care of it. You little brat, you'd better confess your origins honestly, or else Old Ancestor can spare your dog life." White Xiao looked at Sun Yuan with a glance, seeing that he still hadn't made any move, and immediately became determined, standing up.

  "Who am I? You'll find out after a fight, I've figured it out. The truth in this world only exists under the premise of having a strong fist. Luckily, my current fist doesn't seem to be smaller than yours. Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you're an unparalleled expert. Bring it on if you dare." Chen Li's anger turned into laughter as he sent Bai Wusou to his loyal followers and made a gesture inviting him to battle.

  "Alright, alright, a big fist is the best way to settle things. I'm starting to like you, old ancestor. Since you want to die so badly, I'll be happy to send you on your way." White Xiao's face twisted into a sinister grin as he charged forward, quickly engaging in battle with Chen Li.

  Chen Li, who obtained the Nine Yang True Classic, if only his cultivation is considered, due to being washed by Sun Yuan's demonic power, is not much different from Bai Xiao's old monster. The internal strength of the two is about half a catty and eight taels, and Big Brother doesn't mention Second Brother's standard.

  Chen Li was calm, but how could Bai Xiao's old monster be calm?! He thought that this young man wouldn't be able to withstand his attacks for more than three or five moves at most, but as they fought on, Bai Xiao discovered something was off. The depth of the opponent's internal energy was unexpectedly on par with his own, meaning the opponent was also a top-notch master.

  First, it was a White Bone True Person. As for him becoming an ultimate expert, Bai Xiao's heart could still accept it, after all, the other party was also a well-known old monster for many years. But as for Chen Li, his heart could accept it? Has the ultimate expert become a mere cabbage? For a moment, Bai Xiao felt that the world in his eyes seemed to have undergone a tremendous change, so much so that he, who was still fiercely fighting, felt a sense of illusion around him.
