Chapter 611: 332 is not the right time
With one sentence, Bai Ye successfully stunned the hypocritical duo, Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi. They were aware that Poison Wolf had fallen into Bai Ye’s hands, but they had no clue that Fang Yuxin had forcefully extracted Poison Wolf’s memories, leaving Bai Ye and Bai Zhengli fully informed about the dirty tricks they had secretly performed!
Following the initial shock, Bai Yi immediately retorted, "Bai Ye! You’re spouting nonsense and falsely accusing people!"
This time, Bai Zhengyi didn’t glare at him but looked at Bai Ye with a slightly furrowed brow and said earnestly, "Xiao Ye, where did you get this information? In these turbulent times, who knows how many people want to scheme against the Bai Family. Don’t be deceived by someone with ulterior motives!"
Bai Ye had long seen through them and couldn’t help but sneer internally at these words. Seeing that Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi were unwilling to admit to their deeds, he didn’t bring up the fact that Bai Yi and Qiu Yiming had once conspired to set a deadly trap to kill him, nor did he bother to argue with the pretentious father and son pair. His expression changed slightly, as if he had taken the words to heart, and after a long silence, he finally spoke, "I will get to the bottom of this matter. It’s getting late; my father and I will head back now."
After finishing his words, he stood up with Bai Zhengli, both with somber expressions, looking heavily burdened. Although Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi were reluctant, they weren’t in a position to say more and could only see them off. Once they had left, Bai Zhengyi tapped on the table and asked Bai Yi, "How on earth did Bai Ye find out? Could it be that Poison Wolf told him everything?"
Bai Yi was also panicked, and he couldn’t pinpoint the reason why. When Bai Ye left, he had given Bai Yi a deep look that seemed to mock and say "No need to pretend, I know everything," which instilled a sense of unease in him.
Bai Yi felt useless; it was just a glance from Bai Ye, yet it was enough to shake him! Feeling an increased dissatisfaction towards Bai Ye, he grew worried upon hearing Bai Zhengyi’s words, "Logically, Poison Wolf shouldn’t have told him, but perhaps Bai Ye used some method to force the truth out of Poison Wolf. If that’s the case... Dad, what should we do?" He already had murderous intentions in his heart, but given the big trouble he had recently caused, he dared not speak out rashly.
Bai Zhengyi looked disdainfully at him and suddenly said, "The last time you conspired with Qiu Yiming to set that death trap for him, he’s come back alive. What do you think he will make of that?" His sharp gaze then turned towards Bai Yi.
Bai Yi panicked and evaded the look, unable to meet Bai Zhengyi’s eyes. Seeing his cowardly state, Bai Zhengyi grew even more disappointed in him. Although Bai Yi had never told him about the plot, as the head of the Bai Family, how could he not know about Bai Yi’s actions? He had simply turned a blind eye to it.
Given that Bai Ye was quite talented and had voluntarily exited the power struggle within the Bai Family—not joining the Military Department but instead becoming a mercenary, seemingly ruining his own future—they had no need to make another move against him. Yet Bai Ye was too rebellious; he never heeded advice and his rebelliousness only increased after becoming a mercenary, even hinting at wanting to break away from the Bai Family! So when Bai Yi eventually conspired with Qiu Yiming to eliminate Bai Ye, Bai Zhengyi, though aware, did nothing to stop it.
The Bai Family didn’t need such rebellious and talented descendants!
Who would have thought that Bai Yi and Qiu Yiming would be so incompetent? Together, they failed to deal with Bai Ye, allowing him to return to Beishi City alive! Thinking of this, Bai Zhengyi couldn’t help shaking his head, feeling that the heavens were truly unjust. Then his thoughts shifted to Bai Zhengli’s recent advancement.
He had been suppressing Bai Zhengli all along; after all, he was the squad leader of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, which was not entirely under Bai Family control. Apart from soldiers who had once followed them, many of the members who joined later were superpower users. They couldn’t all be expected to be loyal to Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi, and should Bai Zhengli rise to power, some would inevitably side with him!
In order to prevent such a situation, he continuously suppressed Bai Zhengli, marginalizing him. Though belonging to the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, Bai Zhengli held little real power and had few subordinates. Everything had been going smoothly until Bai Zhengli suddenly advanced to become a Third-level Superpower User!
Bai Zhengyi was hesitant; the Bai Family had lost two Level 3 Superpower Users and a hundred outstanding Second-level Superpower Users, a terrible blow. Once the news spread, who knew what those below would think. If other forces found out, countless would target the vulnerable Bai Family!
