Chapter 57: Be Leniency to the Enemy
……

"How can it be!?"

"How could the remains of ancient monks be buried at the bottom of the lake at Baihu Villa?"

Bai Zhengqing's whole body was trembling, and he felt as if he was frightened out of his body. He was completely unable to believe his own speculation.

But he saw the scene before him so clearly.

He instinctively wanted to get closer to find out what was going on.

Suddenly, Chen Ningtai in the fog in the distance let out a muffled groan, as if he was hit by a ray of spiritual light, and he dodged and retreated in an embarrassed manner.

Bai Zhengqing thought to himself, "Not good."

We must not be caught by Chen Ningtai at this time.

He hurriedly ran out of the cave, leaving no trace without touching the ground.

When I came out of the cave, the sky was already turning pale.

Bai Zhengqing activated the Sky Eye Technique and looked towards the water of Bai Lake. He saw that the originally clear water was stained with mud, and strands of mud were spreading into the lake.

Obviously, this was because Chen dug caves in hidden places around the lake and inside the lake, causing the water to become turbid.

Although this kind of pollution is not very obvious, it is enough to make the [Green Spirit Knife Fish] have a slight earthy smell.

Bai Zhengqing was afraid of alerting the enemy, so he didn't dare to stay any longer. He quickly used his skills to quietly leave Baihu Villa. He then hid his tracks all the way and didn't dare to fly in the air. He only flew through deserted mountains and wilderness.

Only when he arrived at the Bai family's territory did he dare to let go and flew back to [Lanshan Villa] at full speed.

"Zhengqing, why are you so flustered?" Bai Xinrong was waiting for news in the pavilion in the garden. When he saw his grandson in such a mess, he frowned and criticized him, "How many times have I told you that you must be calm when facing big things. How can you accomplish anything big if you are so flustered and impetuous?"

"Yes, Grandpa."

Being scolded by his grandfather, Bai Zhengqing did not dare to retort. After taking a deep breath to even out his breathing, he slowly told the whole story.

"what!"

Bai Xinrong's face changed drastically.

"Ancient monks' ruins? Zhengqing, are you sure!?"

"Grandpa, Chen Ningtai was trying to break the formation at that time, so I didn't dare to delve deeper." Bai Zhengqing pondered and said, "But all signs show that Chen did discover the remains of ancient monks at the bottom of the lake and was digging in secret."

"Relics of ancient monks, how is that possible? How is that possible?" Bai Xinrong paced back and forth in the pavilion, his face showing a mixture of surprise, joy, and worry.

In the world of immortal cultivation, stories about the relics of ancient cultivators have always been extremely popular and widely circulated.

They all tell the story of a down-and-out monk who was hunted by his enemies and fled into the wilderness, where he accidentally discovered the ruins of an ancient monk, from which he obtained skills, treasures, and wealth. He then practiced in anonymity for decades, and after coming out, he wiped out his entire enemy family.

But Bai Xinrong also understood that among a thousand such stories, not even one might be true.

There are indeed many ancient ruins in this world that have not been excavated, but once they are discovered, most of them will fall into the hands of the sects.

Taking the thirteen orthodox traditions of the Yunyang Sect as an example, at least four of them were dug out from the remains of ancient cultivators.

But no one can deny that there will always be some independent cultivators or small families who are lucky enough to obtain the inheritance.

Take the Three Ghosts of Pishan as an example, they were extremely lucky and obtained the inheritance.

It’s a pity that it was an evil inheritance that led the three brothers to a path of no return.

If they had obtained the inheritance of the right path, their fate would have been very different, and they would have received extremely generous treatment by joining any sect.

Thinking of the possible consequences of this ancient cultivator's relic falling into the hands of the Chen family, Bai Xinrong's withered face gradually became ferocious: "This is our Bai family's ancient cultivator's relic! It must not fall into the hands of the Chen family!"

Ancient monks' ruins may not necessarily contain treasures, but according to Bai Zhengqing's description, the ancient monks' ruins below Baihu Villa are obviously of a high level.

I don’t know how much time has passed, but the outer protective formation can still be activated, and there are spiritual treasures to repel foreign enemies.

If the Linhai Bai family can obtain the relics here, they will surely soar to the sky, and it may not be impossible for them to be promoted to a Jindan family in the future!

The more Bai Xinrong thought about it, the more anxious he became. A suppressed and powerful aura emanated from him uncontrollably.

Bai Zhengqing took two steps back, thinking to himself, Grandpa, you just scolded me for being impatient, and now that you know about the ancient monks' ruins, you are not very patient~ However, he dared not say anything to disparage Grandpa, so he could only agree and said, "Then we have to hurry up. Although the ancient monks' ruins are well protected, they are inanimate objects after all, and we can always find loopholes to break through them."

"I see Chen Ningtai digging holes everywhere. He must be trying to find the weak points in the defense of the ruins. Grandpa, if we delay, something unexpected will happen. Why don't we launch a surprise attack on Baihu Villa tomorrow night and kill Chen Ningtai! We can take back our ancient monk ruins."

Bai Xinrong's expression changed unpredictably.

After all, he had lived for more than 180 years. After a moment, he finally suppressed his strong urge and said, "Wait a little longer!"

"Still waiting?" Bai Zhengqing's face was filled with anxiety. "What if Chen Ningtai breaks through our ruins, takes the treasure and runs away?"

"The monk may escape, but the temple cannot." Bai Xinrong said coldly, "Besides, the treasure will probably arrive in the next few days. We should be patient for three days. At the same time, we can use the special communication talisman to report this matter to the benefactor and hope to get his response."

Although Bai Zhengqing was full of anxiety, his grandfather's words made sense.

The previous frictions were just minor skirmishes, and the higher-ups wouldn't take them too seriously. But taking the initiative to attack and start a war would mean tearing up the truce agreement previously signed by the two major sects.

The Bai family will definitely be questioned by the top leaders of Wuhen Mountain, and even their benefactor will be questioned by fellow disciples with whom they have a bad relationship.

"What if the benefactor hasn't replied after three days?" Bai Zhengqing was very worried.

"Then do it immediately." Bai Xinrong's face was full of sternness, "I will bear all the consequences."

"Grandpa, I will use spirit pigeons to warn the spies to keep a close eye on the movements of Zheng and Zhao families." Bai Zhengqing nodded and said, "I don't want to encounter the old ghost Chiqiu and the old ghost Guangling when I launch a surprise attack on Baihu Villa."

"You are a teachable kid." Bai Xinrong nodded with satisfaction. "As the saying goes, we should be lenient when we estimate our enemy's strengths. We must never underestimate any opponent."

***
The next day.

noon.

In a cave by a lake, Chen Ningtai retreated from the fog in a panic.

After brushing off the dust on his body, he helplessly shouted to the two red and dark yellow spiritual lights in the mist: "Qian'er, Jingyun, it's almost time. It's already noon outside, there shouldn't be any spies from the Bai family coming to investigate."

"Grandpa, as the saying goes, you should be lenient when predicting your enemy's future. Maybe the Bai family has some treasures that hide their tracks during the day." A pretty female voice sounded in the mist, "We have to act out the play to its full potential. Go back and take a bath, change into a brocade robe, and we'll do it again."

"Again?"

Chen Ningtai's face changed.

During these few days, he performed this play every day, and each performance lasted for several hours. In total, he performed it more than ten times!
Although the foundation-building cultivators are strong, their bodies are not made of iron.

"Qianqian, let grandpa rest during the day." Chen Jingyun's voice rang out in the mist, "If the Bai family attacks tonight, I'm afraid he won't have the energy to deal with it."

Chen Ningtai was somewhat touched.

As expected of my grandson, I still feel sorry for my grandfather after all.

"Besides, Qianqian, you are pregnant, so you shouldn't work too hard." Chen Jingyun added.

"That's right. I can't work too hard." Wang Qianqian's voice sounded, "Okay, then I'll rest in the back. Jingyun, go find someone to replace me and continue the next time."

Chen Jingyun, Chen Ningtai: "..."

"My great grandfather asked me to take charge of the overall situation. Grandpa, Jingyun, I have a heavy burden on my shoulders." Wang Qianqian sighed, "As the saying goes, a journey of a hundred miles begins with a single step. We must not let down our team in this final battle."

"Keep going! For our fourth sister-in-law and fourth brother, let's fight."

"Let's fight!" Chen Jingyun and Chen Ningtai immediately became full of fighting spirit.

"We must be lenient with the enemy and never be careless."

"Estimate the enemy with leniency!"

Chen Xuanmo, who was in the heroic spirit state, saw this scene and was extremely satisfied with Qian'er.

This girl is definitely better at managing the household than Chen Ningtai, that rebellious son.
