Bai Haotian could not accept the fact that his lifespan was only a decade. Bai Guanghai continued speaking.
"You don't need to dwell on it, nor do you need to wait another 10 years. Today is your death day. Go down and accompany your brother!"
"What do you mean!" Bai Haotian questioned his father, Bai Lisheng.
"I mean, die!" Before his voice even fell, Bai Guanghai punched a mechanism on the armrest of the chair he was sitting on.
"Swish, swish, swish!" In an instant, numerous crossbow bolts shot out from various corners of the room towards Bai Haotian.
Caught off guard, Bai Haotian was directly hit by these crossbow bolts. He was pierced by no less than seven or eight arrows, his body becoming a hedgehog.
He stared at Bai Guanghai in disbelief: "Old man, you... you actually dare to kill me!"
"Haha, what is there to fear? Go accompany your brother, haha!" Bai Haotian laughed hysterically, feeling both sorrow and a strange sense of exhilaration!
This mechanism was originally prepared for his enemies. When his study was being built, to deal with the extreme situation of someone coming to kill him, these mechanisms were installed.
He had originally thought these things might never be used in his lifetime, but he never expected that these mechanisms would actually be used on his own son. This was truly a great irony!
"Old man, do you know what you're doing? I admit, I really wanted to kill that little bastard, but I didn't kill him! You're killing me for that little bastard..."
"Heh heh, rest in peace and accompany your brother. There's no use saying all this! I won't bury you in our family's ancestral grave either. I'll throw your ashes into the garbage heap, turning you into a lonely wandering spirit! Haha..."
Bai Guanghai stood up and walked to within three to four meters of Bai Haotian. He wasn't worried about his son suddenly attacking him, because at this moment, Bai Haotian's blood was almost drained.
"Good, very good, old man. If that's the case, then father and son will go together!"
Bai Guanghai's pupils suddenly constricted because he felt something was wrong. Just then, Bai Haotian, who was on the verge of death, had his skin rapidly turn flushed, like a steamed crab.
Immediately after, Bai Haotian's body suddenly began to swell. His clothes were torn to shreds by his expanding body!
Bai Guanghai sensed that something was amiss and turned to run, but it was too late. With a "poof," Bai Haotian's body violently exploded, his flesh and blood instantly scattering, covering the entire study!
A few seconds later, everything returned to calm, and Bai Guanghai had been slammed heavily against the wall by the immense impact! Several crossbow bolts were still stuck in his body. Ironically, these were the same crossbow bolts that had just been in his son's body!
Bai Guanghai opened his mouth, feeling his life force rapidly draining away.
He had originally thought that after getting rid of Bai Haotian, he could find a way to safely have a few more sons and then properly train them to pass down the family legacy!
Who would have thought that this fellow Bai Haotian actually had such a trick up his sleeve!
In fact, Bai Haotian had not only undergone physical modifications by the Divine Power Gu of the Gu King, but he had also cultivated evil techniques provided by unorthodox paths!
And among these techniques, naturally, was the infamous Heavenly Demon Dismantling Great Dharma!
Self-detonation when cornered to take the opponent down with you was precisely the traditional skill of these unorthodox paths.
Bai Guanghai never imagined that his son Bai Haotian knew this move and would use it on his own father.
Even more ironically, it wasn't until more than ten hours later that the servants of the Bai family discovered Bai Guanghai's body.
Bai Guanghai was extremely strict with his subordinates, and his rules for the household servants were severe. Especially his study, which was a forbidden area in the Bai family. If anyone entered without his permission, they would at best have their legs broken, and at worst, be directly sunk into the sea!
Moreover, with both father and son inside the study, they must have been discussing private matters, so the servants dared not enter without permission, fearing they might incur the displeasure of the father and son.
However, after more than ten hours had passed, the father and son had entered and never came out. Outside, the situation was chaotic due to a fire. In the end, the servants of the household felt that something was amiss.
So, several of Bai Guanghai's trusted confidantes discussed the matter and, gathering their courage, knocked on the door. After knocking for a long time without any response, they became even more certain that something had happened.
Therefore, they had to resort to breaking down the door by force. When they finally burst into the study, the scene before them petrified them.
Bai Guanghai, the head of the Bai family, had long since turned cold. His body lay by the wall. As for the young master of the Bai family, Bai Haotian, he was no longer whole, not even a complete bone remained!
At this moment, only one thought occupied everyone's mind: the Bai family of Jiangshan City was finished!
In the past, to prevent his siblings from seizing his property, Bai Guanghai had secretly used various means to eliminate all his relatives with inheritance rights! Da Feng Novel Network
It could be said that the current Bai family was extinct!
However, in reality, the Bai family was not extinct. Bai Guanghai's youngest son, Bai Haoming, was still alive. It was just that this child had now been transported thousands of miles away.
He would be placed in a welfare home in a small city thousands of miles away. When he grew up, he would not know who his father was!
In fact, Ling Tian discovered this child when he set the fire. He quickly realized the child's identity. Originally, Ling Tian did not intend to bother with the child, but then he thought that if he didn't, this child would surely perish in the fire.
Although he had deep enmity with the Bai family, Ling Tian still had a conscience. He knew that if he did nothing and watched the child burn to death, what difference would his actions be from those of evil cultists?
So, while setting the fire, he conveniently took the child with him. He then contacted people from the Misty Rain Pavilion and had them take the child away to be properly settled. As for what the child's future would hold, that was not something Ling Tian could worry about.
Next, Ling Tian took stock of his gains. He was astonished by what he found. The cash, gold, and securities he had obtained from the Bai family's treasury this time were valued at over 50 billion!
Ling Tian pondered. With such a large amount of wealth, if it were all handed over to the Misty Rain Pavilion to handle at once, it would be difficult for them to manage it without attracting attention. They could only digest it bit by bit.
Moreover, such a large sum of funds, if brought out all at once, would attract covetous eyes.
