Chapter 357 The Young Singer's Journey 26

Ignoring the murmuring crowd downstairs, Xiao Yu uttered a soft rebuke: "Baili Dongjun—"

The sound was like a clap of thunder in spring, instantly drowning out the noise downstairs and spreading throughout the entire Snowmoon City.

"Sigh!" The person sitting by the window couldn't help but sigh softly.

I had planned that after meeting the son of my old friend today, I could then go to the overseas immortal mountains to find the ingredients for Meng Po's soup and avoid the impending conflict.

But to my surprise, I couldn't escape it in the end.

But who exactly is this person? And what is their purpose in coming to Snowmoon City?

After taking a big gulp of wine, Baili Dongjun put down the wine pot in his hand, and in a flash, he was already at the top of Dengtian Pavilion.

The moment he appeared, it was like a pebble thrown into water, causing the already noisy crowd to erupt into a frenzy of cheers.

As the most outstanding martial artist in the world, Baili Dongjun attracts countless people to Xueyue City just to catch a glimpse of him.

However, he was elusive, and even his disciple Tang Lian had only seen him a few times. Each time they met, they would only exchange a few words. He usually taught martial arts through letters, let alone outsiders.

His sudden appearance caused an unimaginable surge of excitement among the crowd.

Through the thin veil covering his eyes, Xiao Yu carefully examined the person who had suddenly appeared opposite him, and a sense of surprise welled up in his heart.

Baili Dongjun is only in his thirties, but half of his hair has already turned white, especially the two strands of silver hair on his forehead, which sway gently in the breeze and are particularly eye-catching.

Although his temperament is more unrestrained and carefree than when he was young, there is an indelible sense of vicissitude and dejection between his brows, and he shows no trace of his former spirited appearance.

Clearly, he has not been living a very happy life over the years.

While Xiao Yu was carefully examining Baili Dongjun, the latter was also scrutinizing Xiao Yu with a complex expression.

Just as Baili Dongjun's gaze fell on Xiao Yu, he felt a momentary daze.

There were once two people dressed in white with white veils on their heads, who traveled thousands of miles from Qiandong City to Tianqi City, thus leading him into the world of martial arts.

Baili Dongjun took a deep breath, and the cold air instantly rushed into his lungs, bringing him back to his senses from his past memories.

Baili Dongjun composed himself and slowly said, "Baili Dongjun is here. May I ask what brings you to Snow Moon City?"

Hearing the slightly familiar voice, Xiao Yu frowned slightly and couldn't help but turn his body away, avoiding looking at Baili Dongjun.

His impression of Baili Dongjun was still that of the other party who disregarded everything, ignored his position and consequences, and insisted on falling in love with the remnants of Beique, and even wanted to help Yuefeng City leave the pass in the end.

Even after all these years, Xiao Yu still finds Baili Dongjun's "love-obsessed" behavior extremely repulsive.

Therefore, he spoke in a very cold tone: "I have come to Snowmoon City today to ask you two things."

"First of all, the agreement to lock the mountains and rivers twelve years ago is null and void." Xiao Yu pointed to Wuxin, who was watching downstairs, and said calmly, "No one is allowed to interfere with him wherever he goes from now on."

Baili Dongjun listened to Xiao Yu's words but didn't seem to care about his cold tone. His face still wore that arrogant, unrestrained smile as he said:

"You should know that the Treaty of Locking Mountains and Rivers was established by me. Yet now you are saying in front of me that you want to cancel the agreement that I personally set. Isn't this showing a great disrespect to me, Baili Dongjun?"

“Furthermore,” Baili Dongjun continued, “what makes you think that just because of your words, I, Baili Dongjun, can overturn my past vows? The Pact of Locking Mountains and Rivers is not just about me, but also a promise to the entire martial arts world.”

Xiao Yu's expression remained calm and unwavering: "It's alright. Anyone who has objections can come directly to me. But if you have objections..."

Xiao Yu's gaze finally fell on Baili Dongjun, his tone carrying an undisguised sarcasm: "What right do you have to disagree?"

"You keep saying that Ye Dingzhi is your best brother, but what about now? Ye Dingzhi is dead, leaving behind only a lonely orphan, yet you insist on pushing him to Tianwaitian, a place with deep hatred for Ye Dingzhi. What an irony!"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu suddenly brought up this matter, and the smile on Baili Dongjun's face instantly disappeared: "Since you have some understanding of the past, then you should understand that for that child, returning to Tianwaitian is the best choice."

Xiao Yu scoffed and shook his head: "Even the Outer Heavens have no right to force Wuxin to go to the Outer Heavens, so what right do you have to make decisions for Wuxin?"

As he spoke, he stared directly at Baili Dongjun, his words becoming increasingly sharp: "If you had been able to decisively lead the martial arts community to eliminate those members of the demonic sect who invaded Beili back then, would Beili be venting its anger on a child now?"

Baili Dongjun's anger was aroused by what he was said, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Xiao Yu's voice suddenly rose, and he shouted sternly, "The main force of the Demonic Sect's invasion was Tianwaitian, and the people in Tianwaitian are all remnants of Beique. Ask yourself, when you made the Pact of Locking Mountains and Rivers, was it to protect Wuxin's safety, or to secretly let those remnants of Beique go?"

Upon hearing this, a commotion erupted downstairs, with people turning their attention to Baili Dongjun with a mixture of surprise and disbelief.

Now, only twelve years have passed since the Demon's Eastern Expedition, and everyone present still remembers that event vividly.

Upon hearing Xiao Yu's remarks, everyone couldn't help but recall the situation back then.

That's right!

After the death of Ye Ding, the leader of the Demonic Sect, the sect was leaderless and was already on its last legs under the siege of the Northern Jianghu and the imperial court.

But at this critical moment, Baili Dongjun made a pact to lock the mountains and rivers, keeping Ye Dingzhi's son behind while letting the remnants of the Demonic Sect go.

Could it be that Baili Dongjun truly harbors selfish motives?

His so-called "inability to bear killing innocent people" was just an excuse, and his real purpose was to let those remnants of the Northern Kingdom go.

The murmurs among the crowd grew louder, and Baili Dongjun's expression became increasingly grim.

He took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger, and then said, "If I really felt pity for the remnants of Bei Que, as you say, then why did I stop Ye Dingzhi in the first place? Wouldn't that be a contradiction?"

Xiao Yu's gaze was as cold as ice, piercing Baili Dongjun: "Is it contradictory? Weren't you deeply in love with Princess Yueyao of Beique at the time? You even promised her to go to Langyue Blessed Land in Tianwaitian to rescue Yuefeng City, the ruler of Beique, who had been in seclusion for ten years?"
