Liu Wenba stood rooted to the spot, watching with his own eyes as Luo Bai's punch landed on him.
In his opinion, Luo Bai was just a Qi Refining Third Stage trash, completely incapable of harming him in the slightest.
Suddenly, Liu Wenba felt a sharp pain in his chest, his face instantly contorted, he felt as if his heart had exploded, a mouthful of fresh blood gushed from his mouth, and he knelt powerlessly before Luo Bai, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He never expected that Luo Bai, this Qi Refining Third Stage trash, could shatter his heart with a single punch.
The two house servants standing by, watching the show, saw this scene, and the smiles on their faces instantly froze.
Luo Bai turned his head to look at the other two house servants.
The moment he turned his head, Liu Wenba fell heavily to the ground, no longer showing any signs of life; he had been killed by Luo Bai's single punch.
The two Liu Family house servants turned pale with fright upon seeing this scene.
One of the house servants turned and ran towards Bihai City, while the other house servant was so scared that he collapsed to the ground, his pants soaked.
Luo Bai would not let these people go; since they wanted to kill him, Luo Bai naturally would not leave any survivors.
Looking at the house servant frantically running ahead, Luo Bai picked up a stone, channeled his power, and threw it fiercely at the house servant.
The fleeing house servant was directly knocked to the ground by the stone.
Luo Bai walked up to the house servant who was paralyzed with fear on the ground.
The house servant quickly pleaded, "Young Master Luo Bai, please spare me, I am willing to be your ox and horse, to be your dog."
Luo Bai was expressionless and directly ended the house servant's life.
After checking the scene and confirming that Liu Wenba and his house servants were all dead, Luo Bai returned to Bihai City.
Upon returning to Bihai City, Luo Bai originally wanted to go directly to the Murong family to retrieve the Qiankun Mirror from Murong Xue, but with his current strength, it was impossible to take down the Murong family, and he might even be killed again by the Murong family members.
Luo Bai decided to lay low first and wait until he had sufficient strength before going to the Murong family to reclaim the Qiankun Mirror.
So, he decided to return to his Family first and ask his grandfather for some Cultivation Techniques.
The previous Luo Bai was truly unlearned and unskilled; even his Qi Refining Third Stage strength was accumulated through the Family's resources, and he was too lazy to learn the Family's Cultivation Techniques, resulting in the current Luo Bai not having learned a single Cultivation Technique.
As soon as he snuck back to his residence, Luo Bai saw his grandfather, Luo Tian, sitting in the courtyard, staring at him with wide eyes.
Luo Bai's heart sank; he then remembered the matter of the Qiankun Mirror.
Seeing Luo Bai return safely, Luo Tian breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "You little brat, where did you run off to? Where is the Qiankun Mirror?"
"Uh..." Luo Bai was a bit speechless, he hesitated for a moment and then simply told Luo Tian about Murong Xue tricking him into stealing the Qiankun Mirror.
After hearing Luo Bai's words, Luo Tian instantly burst into a rage, flames even appearing in his eyes: "Damn it, I'm going to destroy the Murong family, they infuriate me!"
Although the Qiankun Mirror was very important to Luo Tian, in his eyes, nothing was more important than Luo Bai.
Even if the Qiankun Mirror was lost, he wouldn't be this angry.
Luo Tian furiously wanted to take people to the Murong family to demand an explanation.
Luo Bai quickly grabbed Luo Tian, preventing him from going.
He knew that this was very likely a conspiracy orchestrated by the Murong family and the Liu Family, and perhaps the Liu Family and Murong family had already dug a pit waiting for Luo Tian to jump into; Luo Tian without the Qiankun Mirror was like a tiger without claws, going would likely lead to disaster.
"Grandfather, calm down and think about it. This is very likely a conspiracy between the Murong family and the Liu Family. Perhaps both families have already set up a trap waiting for us to fall into."
"So what? Even if I die, I'll drag those two White Robed Old Men with me!" Luo Tian said angrily, "They dare to scheme against my grandson, they must be tired of living!"
"Give me a month, and I will personally retrieve the Qiankun Mirror," Luo Bai said confidently.
"You?" Luo Tian looked at Luo Bai, dumbfounded.
Luo Bai naturally knew why Luo Tian was dumbfounded; how could he, a mere Qi Refining Third Stage trash, reclaim the Qiankun Mirror from one of the top families in Bihai City?
Even at his peak, he wasn't confident he could reclaim the Qiankun Mirror from the Murong family, let alone Luo Bai, who was only at Qi Refining Third Stage?
"Grandfather, give me a Test Spirit Stone," Luo Bai said calmly.
The so-called Test Spirit Stone was a stone specifically for testing strength; by inputting True Qi into the Spirit Stone, one could know the strength of the person inputting the Qi.
This kind of Test Spirit Stone was only used in small places like Bihai City; powerful individuals could detect an opponent's strength through Divine Sense.
Luo Tian looked at Luo Bai with a puzzled expression, but quickly pulled out a Test Spirit Stone from his embrace and handed it to Luo Bai.
Luo Bai took the Test Spirit Stone and input a wisp of True Qi into it.
The moment Luo Bai's True Qi entered the Test Spirit Stone, the Test Spirit Stone gradually emitted a burst of light, and the words "Qi Refining Eighth Stage" appeared on the Spirit Stone.
Upon seeing these words, Luo Tian's eyes widened, and he even slapped his cheek hard, only to find that he wasn't dreaming.
How excited he was when he saw Luo Tian's strength reach Qi Refining Eighth Stage.
How could his unlearned and unskilled grandson's strength suddenly increase so much? How could he not be excited?
Luo Tian's trembling hands gripped Luo Bai's arm, looking at Luo Bai excitedly, for a moment he was incoherent: "Grandson, your stre... strength, how did it suddenly increase so much?"
Luo Bai explained to Luo Tian that he had encountered some fortunate opportunities, and Luo Tian naturally knew that everyone had secrets, so he did not press further.
"Good, excellent! Since your strength has advanced by leaps and bounds, there are some things I should give you now." Luo Tian pulled out a scroll from his embrace: "This is something your parents left behind. I don't know what it is, but your father told me to give this to you if your strength could Breakthrough Qi Refining Fifth Stage."
Luo Bai took the scroll and examined it carefully. The scroll emitted an ancient aura, but when he opened it, it was empty, with nothing inside.
Luo Bai vaguely felt that this scroll was extraordinary, but he couldn't see anything special about it, so he put the scroll away.
"My parents?" In his memory, Luo Bai had been raised by Luo Tian since he was a child, and he had no memories of his parents.
"Some things, I cannot tell you now. When you become powerful in the future, I will tell you about your parents. Telling you too much now will only harm you." Luo Tian sighed, "I still have things to deal with. You, boy, Cultivate well here at home. Don't go out during this period."
Looking at Luo Tian's departing back, Luo Bai vaguely felt that changes would occur within the Family during this time.
In this world where the strong prey on the weak, only increasing one's strength is the absolute truth.
Luo Bai turned and returned to his room. He sat down cross-legged and took out the scroll to examine it carefully.
He pondered over it carefully. A quarter of an hour passed, but Luo Tian still hadn't discovered anything from the scroll.
Even when Luo Bai placed the scroll in water, he found nothing after taking it out.
"That's strange, I don't believe it." Luo Bai thought of the process of blood acknowledgment, wondering if the contents of the scroll would only appear after blood acknowledgment?
Without further ado, Luo Bai took out a small knife and forcefully cut his palm.
Drops of fresh blood dripped from his palm onto the ancient scroll.
