Chapter 3071: Chapter 3072: Threats

"Ao Song has already left the Zhong Family, and he didn’t take anything from them—why do you persistently refuse to let it go?" Bai Ruozhu’s eyes narrowed slightly. Something was off; the reactions of these old guys were strange.

The Zhong Family wouldn’t have failed to notice if something had happened to Xiaoxiao. Without their greatest backing, shouldn’t they be beating their chests in anger and resentment?

Yet they were racking their brains to find Ao Song, as if racking their brains wasn’t even the right phrase—perhaps ’maniacally desperate’ would be more appropriate?

Could it be that Ao Song played a critical role?

Bai Ruozhu’s heart skipped a beat. She suddenly thought of Ao Song’s special abilities being like Xiaoxiao’s, so previously when Xiaoxiao had her flesh cut, Ao Song suffered backlash. Would Ao Song be in danger this time?

"Can she really leave the Zhong Family as she pleases? If you don’t speak the truth today, don’t even think about leaving safely," the sixth clan elder shouted.

Jiang Yichun, with a cold expression, looked at him, "I’d like to see who’s actually unsafe."

Speaking, he drew his long sword, one hand holding the sword and the other creating a mist, attacking the magic array in the distance.

Bai Ruozhu was not someone to be easily bullied either; she flicked her fingers, releasing poison.

"Do you really think we’re that easy to bully? The Zhong Family is looking for trouble," Chushuang said, pulling out the short flute and playing it to her lips.

Even Little Dengdeng threw out several mechanical puppets, grabbing the hand of a younger brother and saying, "Bengbeng, Tiaotiao, don’t be afraid, brother will protect you."

The two little buns showed no sign of fear, their bright eyes darting around, seemingly enjoying watching the fight and chaos.

The faces of the Zhong Family members changed, being used to being high and mighty, even the Western Regions Royal Family had to give them some respect. Yet, they had remained stagnant for too long in their little corner, not aware that there are always stronger people and higher mountains. Now hitting this obstacle, they finally realized that Bai Ruozhu and her group were not easy to provoke.

"You’re using poison? Despicable!" the fifth clan elder angrily cursed.

"On the battlefield, everyone relies on their own skills. If you can’t win, then complain less," Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

Meanwhile, the sound of Chushuang’s flute made them dizzy, even the curse technique to clear the mind was useless.

Jiang Yichun took the opportunity to break several formation flags, disrupting an array.

The two sides fought intensely, but soon the Zhong Family lost the advantage they originally anticipated.

"Must you be enemies with the Zhong Family? Have you considered the consequences?" the sixth clan elder shouted, fierce on the outside but weak on the inside.

Bai Ruozhu sneered, "You’ve already treated us as enemies, otherwise why prepare such a grand setup waiting for us? If you don’t want to die, then get out. And stop bothering Ao Song, or I won’t let you go."

"How dare you!" the sixth clan elder shouted, but in a moment of distraction, Jiang Yichun struck his chest with Sword Qi, forcing him to vomit blood.

Bai Ruozhu laughed coldly, "Your intention for capturing Ao Song is clearly not simple. How many secrets does the Zhong Family have? Don’t push me, or I’ll reveal everything to the world and let everyone see how the Zhong Family rose to power."

The Zhong Family retreated step by step. Initially seeing Bai Ruozhu’s group as merely fleeing, they never expected their strength to be so formidable. Although they had prepared, they didn’t bring enough people in the end.

The sixth clan elder was internally injured, and the fifth clan elder had to grit his teeth and support him as they retreated, but he still reluctantly shouted to Bai Ruozhu, "Go tell Zhong Aosong, if she wants her parents to live, she should come back herself!"

Bai Ruozhu’s eyebrow twitched. What had these old geezers done to Ao Song’s parents? Ao Song’s father is the patriarch, yet they were controlled?
