Chapter 605: The Yin Demonic Venerable 22

Seeing how utterly worried she looked, Bai Tong couldn't help looking thoroughly pleased. “What's there to panic about? Just eat and drink well while you wait, and don't cause me any trouble.”

“All right, then.” Tang Wan could only nod.

……

After that, Bai Tong simply kept Tang Wan on his lap, sometimes sitting and sometimes lying down, and she didn't get to go anywhere at all.

Another day passed before Tang Wan was startled awake by Little Cutie.

“Host, this is bad! The cultivators outside have already stormed in!” Little Cutie hurriedly said.

Hearing this, Tang Wan immediately shot her eyes open.

Seeing this, Bai Tong thought she had sensed the commotion outside. He quickly reached out and instinctively patted her gently on the back, comforting her. “Don't be afraid. I'm here. No one can hurt you.”

Tang Wan's eyes immediately lit up.

This attitude…… sure changed quickly!

But she wasn't stupid enough to say that out loud. With his unpredictable temper, he might feel embarrassed at losing face and become unhappy again.

So Tang Wan merely looked at him with an expression of dependence and trust and nodded. “Mm!”

……

Not long after, the sound of rushing wind came from outside the great hall.

Immediately afterward, dozens of figures stormed into the great hall.

They were all the leading figures of the four major sects, and their strength was extraordinary.

The moment they saw Bai Tong, their eyes lit up one after another. And when their gazes swept across the masses of spiritual flowers and herbs lining both sides of the great hall, the greed in their eyes was exposed without the slightest attempt at concealment.

Who would have thought that even after the spiritual veins of Spirit Mountain had been severed by their ancestors, so many spiritual medicines could still grow here?

This trip had truly been worth it!

……

At this moment, Tang Wan instinctively reached out and grabbed Bai Tong's arm tightly.

Seeing this, Bai Tong's heart stirred.

Then he finally made a move he had wanted to make for a long time—he stuffed Tang Wan into his chest.

When Bai Tong directly tucked her into the collar of his robe against his chest, Tang Wan was completely dumbfounded.

The next moment, she heard Bai Tong say quietly, “Hold onto my collar tightly. If you fall, don't blame me for not catching you.”

Hearing this, Tang Wan hurriedly gave an “oh,” then stretched out her tiny hands and clung tightly to Bai Tong's collar like a little pendant.

Her two feet were planted against his firm chest.

Seeing this, Bai Tong couldn't help curling the corners of his lips upward.

Then he turned his cold, sinister gaze toward the cultivators continuously rushing into the hall.

……

At this moment, the cultivators inside the hall exchanged glances before speaking one after another.

“Bai Tong is imprisoned by the black-iron chains and can't leave. Let's attack him together!”

“Good! Everyone, attack together! We'll each take as much flesh and blood as we can get!”

“Agreed!”

As soon as the words fell, the dozen or so cultivators drew their weapons and charged toward Bai Tong.

Seeing this, Bai Tong narrowed his eyes slightly. Then he grabbed the black-iron chain restraining him and swung it toward their attacks.

However, compared with the combined force of the cultivators attacking together, his attack was clearly at a disadvantage, and he appeared to be struggling somewhat.

Seeing that Bai Tong's strength really wasn't enough to contend with them, the cultivators became even more excited.

“Hurry! Bai Tong's strength really has been weakened. Don't hold anything back!”

“Whichever part you cut off belongs to whoever gets it!”

As they spoke, everyone attacked even more fiercely.

At the same time, more and more cultivators continued rushing into the great hall through the entrance.

Seeing that people were already engaged in combat with Bai Tong, their gazes all turned toward the spiritual medicines lining both sides of the hall.
