Chapter 745: The Isolated White Tiger Race

Chapter 745: Chapter 739: The Isolated White Tiger Race

“It’s over, it’s over! The White Tiger Race went to get help from the other three great families. Even if Shen Haoran has three Spirit Emperor powerhouses on his side, how can he possibly stand against the combined might of the Four Great Divine Beast Families?”

“Sigh, this is the trouble that comes from being impulsive. So young and reckless!”

“To have the Four Great Divine Beast Families join forces to deal with him… Shen Haoran can die without regrets!”

“Not necessarily. Shen Haoran’s relationship with the Cyan Dragon Race isn’t shallow. The Cyan Dragon Race probably won’t move against him. But even if they don’t, Shen Haoran can’t resist the other three great families alone. And there’s still the behemoth that is the Medicine Hall. No matter what he does, it’s a dead end for him!”

The Martial Artists in Central City saw Bai Shaohong’s departing figure and immediately understood the White Tiger Race’s intentions. They were going to ask the other great families for help.

However, Shen Haoran had no intention of stopping him. With his arms crossed over his chest, he watched the members of the White Tiger Race as if they were clowns in a performance, completely unafraid of them calling on other families for aid.

“Hmph, pretending to be calm. Once the powerhouses from the other families arrive, you’ll die without a burial place!” Bai Zhennan snorted coldly, glaring at Shen Haoran’s nonchalant expression.

Shen Haoran didn’t move, and neither did the people from the White Tiger Race. The two sides just stood there quietly, facing off in mid-air as they waited for Bai Shaohong to return.

A moment later, Bai Shaohong rushed back from the other families’ territories. Seeing his hurried return, the members of the White Tiger Race lit up with joy. However, when they noticed that Bai Shaohong had come back alone, their smiles vanished. Hadn’t Bai Shaohong gone to ask the Patriarchs of the other great families for help? Why had he returned alone?

“Shaohong, where are the Patriarchs of the other three great families?” Bai Zhennan asked with a frown, looking at the empty space behind Bai Shaohong.

“Father, the other Patriarchs are unwilling to help us. Even the Hall Master of the Medicine Hall refused to make an enemy of Shen Haoran!” Bai Shaohong said with a grim expression.

“What?!” Hearing Bai Shaohong’s words, Bai Zhennan’s face turned ashen. The Four Great Divine Beast Families and the Medicine Hall had an alliance pact: if one was in trouble, all would provide aid. Now, the other great families were clearly intending to break that pact!

“What about Feng Qingwu of the Vermilion Bird Race? He’s not coming either?” Bai Zhennan asked in a low voice. It was one thing for the Cyan Dragon Race and the Black Tortoise Race not to come, since their relationships with Shen Haoran were quite close. But for the Vermilion Bird Race, who had always looked down on Shen Haoran and even wanted to seize his Vermilion Bird Bloodline, to also refuse to come… that, Bai Zhennan couldn’t understand.

“Feng Qingwu refused to see me, shutting his doors. I didn’t even get to meet him!” Bai Shaohong cursed under his breath.

“Damn it! A bunch of dishonorable, promise-breaking cowards! How dare they openly break the pact!” Bai Zhennan couldn’t help but roar in anger. His furious display was witnessed by everyone in Central City.

“What’s going on? Didn’t the White Tiger Race go to summon help? How come no one came?”

“Looking at Bai Zhennan and Bai Shaohong, it seems the other three great families refused. Even the people from the Medicine Hall didn’t show up!”

“Tsk, tsk, now this is getting interesting. The three great families openly broke the pact, and the Medicine Hall has isolated the White Tiger Race as well. It seems Shen Haoran pulled some strings here!”

“What did this guy do to make the other three great families openly tear up a century-old pact?”

Some of the more astute Martial Artists looked at Bai Zhennan and Bai Shaohong and began to guess at the truth. They were shocked to their core. ‘The other three great families and the Medicine Hall were actually willing to isolate the White Tiger Race for Shen Haoran’s sake. This Shen Haoran is truly no simple character!’

In the Vermilion Bird Race’s domain, Feng Miaoke asked with some confusion, “Father, why aren’t we helping the White Tiger Race? Don’t you dislike that Shen Haoran too?” When Bai Shaohong had come seeking aid just now, her father had simply refused to see him, which puzzled her greatly.

“Miaoke, there are some people you simply can’t afford to offend. It’s not too late for us to realize this now. Otherwise, we would have ended up just like the White Tiger Race,” Feng Qingwu said with a long sigh, gazing at Shen Haoran in the distance.

“Can’t afford to offend? Doesn’t Shen Haoran just have three Spirit Emperor Tier powerhouses? If our Vermilion Bird Race and the White Tiger Race joined forces, are you saying we still couldn’t beat him?” Feng Miaoke said, unconvinced.

“Sigh, you don’t understand. What you see of Shen Haoran is merely the tip of the iceberg. I used to think he was just some kid from the Human Race with no background, but now it seems his background is beyond our imagination. So, before we cause an irreversible disaster, we must back off!” Feng Qingwu sighed again, then turned and walked back into the house.

“Father, where are you going? Aren’t you going to watch how the battle ends?” Feng Miaoke called out to Feng Qingwu’s retreating back.

“There’s no need to watch. The outcome is already set in stone.” Feng Qingwu’s voice drifted back, leaving Feng Miaoke utterly confused. She turned her gaze back toward Shen Haoran’s direction.

At this moment, Shen Haoran looked at the fuming Bai father and son and couldn’t help but sneer, “Bai Race Leader, what happened? Where are the helpers you rounded up?”

“Hmph, Shen Haoran, don’t get cocky! Even without anyone else’s help, don’t even think about leaving the White Tiger Race alive!” Bai Zhennan took a deep breath, suppressed his fury, and stared at Shen Haoran, speaking in an ice-cold voice.

“Ancestor, it seems we’ll have to bring *that* out!” Bai Zhennan turned to the ancestor beside him and said in a grave tone. Hearing this, the ancestor nodded as well. The current situation was unfavorable for the White Tiger Race; this was their only option.

“White Tiger’s Advent!” Bai Zhennan and the White Tiger Race’s ancestor exchanged a look, and then both began forming a Seal Technique with their hands simultaneously.

“ROAR!” Following their low shout, a roar that shook the heavens and the earth suddenly erupted from the depths of the White Tiger Race’s domain. Immediately after, a terrifying pressure descended from the sky. It was an extremely domineering aura. After the tiger’s roar sounded, Shen Haoran, Bai Zhennan, and the others in mid-air lost control of their bodies and instantly plummeted toward the ground!

‘What’s happening?’ Not just Shen Haoran’s group, but all the Martial Artists near the White Tiger Race’s domain felt an immense power envelop them. The sensation was like being crushed under a colossal mountain. Some of the weaker Martial Artists were even forced flat onto the ground, unable to get back up.

Shen Haoran forcefully stabilized his falling body. He narrowed his eyes and gazed into the depths of the White Tiger Race’s territory. From there, he sensed an aura even more powerful than Fire Vajra’s—the aura of a Tier Three Spirit Emperor.

“ROAR!”

Another tiger’s roar echoed out. A moment later, a gigantic White Tiger leaped up from the back mountains of the White Tiger Race’s domain. It soared into the sky, trailing waves of energy as a terrifying pressure poured down once more.

“A White Tiger Beast Soul!” Shen Haoran exclaimed in a low voice as he stared at the massive, illusory White Tiger. He never would have expected the White Tiger Race to still possess the Beast Soul of the Ancient Divine Beast, the White Tiger!
