Chapter 437: The Bai Family Will Fully Support You!

Chapter 437: Chapter 437: The Bai Family Will Fully Support You!

The old lady immediately began to praise Xu Qianli lavishly, not hiding her admiration for him.

The Bai Family was a martial arts lineage with many exceptional talents in the family, even some who were considered once-in-a-century prodigies.

But even the most talented could only consume triple the potency of Jiulong Water at most.

For Xu Qianli to drink ten times the potent Jiulong Water without dying, and to fully absorb it, was truly unheard of.

This guy was definitely a martial arts prodigy.

Bai Yanran approached with a smile, taking Xu Qianli’s hand, "Come, let me introduce you. This is my grandmother, the head of the Bai Family. You can call her Grand Madam."

"Grandmother, hello."

"Grand Madam," Xu Qianli said sweetly, calling her grandmother right off the bat.

This was Bai Yanran’s grandmother, obviously here to see him. As a younger generation, he had to perform well.

Hearing Xu Qianli directly calling her grandmother, Bai Yanran gave him a glance and thought to herself that he really didn’t know how to be polite.

Grand Madam Bai kept watching Xu Qianli with a smile, then reached out to pinch his arm and leg, checking his physical constitution, and kept nodding her head.

"Good, good! Truly a prodigy!"

"Encountering him is truly a fortune for our Bai Family."

"Your name is Xu Qianli, right? If you don’t mind, I’ll call you Little Xu. I heard you have good relationships with a miss from the Lan Family and one from the Zi Family, that you’ve even decided on a lifelong commitment?"

"Oh, right, I almost forgot. There’s also that lost princess from the Ye Family who, I hear, has an even better relationship with you. Are you going to marry her as your main wife?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qianli nodded, "Yes, that’s true."

Since Grand Madam Bai was aware, Xu Qianli simply admitted to it.

Grand Madam Bai gave a slight smile, showing a look of approval at Xu Qianli.

"Good, well done! A true man should amass greater authority, marry the most beautiful women, and it would be even better to establish some significant achievements."

"You now have marital ties with my Bai Family, the Ye Family, the Lan Family, and the Zi Family. There are really not many young people with a background stronger than yours."

"Do you have any plans for the future, or any ambitions?"

"If there is anything our Bai Family can assist with, just speak up. Our family’s power is entirely at your disposal."

Grand Madam Bai immediately made her stance clear; she not only acknowledged Xu Qianli as her granddaughter’s husband but was also willing to support him with the family’s resources.

Upon hearing this, Xu Qianli couldn’t have been more excited. The energy of the nation’s foremost martial arts family was astonishing, and to think that Grand Madam was willing to support him fully—it was not just a pie falling from the sky.

Bai Yanran was displeased, speaking in a coquettish tone, "Grandmother, how could you do this? I’ve told you before, our Bai Family will not help him in his career. Moreover, he must fulfill his agreement with me to become the head of the Jiang City County Committee within three years, otherwise, our relationship is over, and I’ll even have to kill him. Now you want to mobilize our family’s power to help him easily secure the position as the little county committee head; it’s simply making it too easy for him, you are helping him cheat."

Grand Madam Bai said, "My precious granddaughter, I know what’s in your heart, no need to be shy. As for helping Little Xu, I didn’t say it has to be in his official career. Our Bai Family’s power can be useful in many ways, such as protecting his safety or dealing with some people who want to kill him."

As she spoke, those listening unintentionally might find it intriguing, but Xu Qianli’s ears perked up, and he quickly spoke, "Grandmother, I’ve actually recently encountered a tricky matter, recently..."

Xu Qianli talked about someone plotting in Qingshan Town to destroy the tourism investment project and even to take the opportunity to kill him.

This included details about Sun Wei, Zhang Guangxian, and others, and he clarified everything.

After learning of the matter, Elder Lady Bai said, "Anyone who dares to harm my son-in-law is an enemy not just to me but to our entire Bai Family. We will get involved in this matter, and I want to see who dared to act against us!"

Elder Lady Bai took charge of the matter, ensuring that no one could bully a member of the Bai Family.

Bai Yanran said, "Since Grandmother has agreed to take this on, the matter will certainly be thoroughly investigated. Consider yourself lucky."

"I am indeed lucky. Otherwise, how could I have met you?"

Disregarding Elder Lady Bai’s presence, Xu Qianli wrapped his arms around Bai Yanran’s slender waist.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, the feel of his beloved Bai Yanran’s waist was truly top class.

Elder Lady Bai gave a light cough, and someone immediately came forward to listen to her orders. She instructed them to use the Bai Family’s energy to investigate.

In less than two hours, three people were brought to Yunding Villa.

These three, influential figures in Zhongzhou City from business, politics, and the underworld, all boasting remarkable status, now knelt on the ground like dead dogs, trembling uncontrollably.

Elder Lady Bai personally took charge and questioned the background of the three.

Xu Qianli and Bai Yanran, standing beside Elder Lady Bai, could clearly feel an incredibly terrifying aura emanating from her.

That feeling was like the legendary oppressive force—unspeakably terrifying and horrifying.

Faced with Elder Lady Bai, the three didn’t dare hide anything and revealed their backgrounds; they were all members of the Qingshan Association.

Zhang Guangxian, Sun Wei, and others were also members of the Qingshan Association’s forces.

The incident previously in Qingshan Town was indeed perpetrated by the Qingshan Association.

They had sabotaged the tourism development project in Qingshan Town and targeted Xu Qianli for death, precisely as Xu Qianli had suspected. The upper echelons of the Qingshan Association were looking for a treasure in Qingshan Town, and Xu Qianli along with the tourism project were in their way.

As for what exactly that treasure was, they were not clear.

Regarding how to contact the upper levels of the Qingshan Association, they had no idea; they had always just received orders without needing to report upwards.

The reason they had joined the Qingshan Association, controlled by it, was firstly because of the enormous resources provided by the association and secondly because they had all ingested a special poison, needing a trip to Cailin County every few months for the antidote.

Whether the Qingshan Association’s hideout was in Cailin County, they did not know.

Xu Qianli finally understood the forces hiding in the shadows that had acted against him; it was indeed the Qingshan Association.

Next, it would be about finding a way to cause trouble for the Qingshan Association, ideally eliminating it altogether.

Xu Qianli didn’t have any particular plans yet, but Elder Lady Bai claimed that she would take care of it. Once they investigated and found the Qingshan Association’s hideout, the Bai Family would strike with full force!

Xu Qianli wasn’t sure about the extent of the martial arts family, the Bai Family’s energy.

But he had heard from Zi Yumo that the Bai Family’s strength was not inferior to any of the top families in the country.

Even the Ye Family, which commanded immense military power, was slightly inferior to the Bai Family, an existence that far exceeded ordinary understanding.

With the Bai Family taking on the Qingshan Association, Xu Qianli felt relieved. Even if they couldn’t annihilate the Qingshan Association immediately, they could at least force it to behave and not dare to casually act against him again.

That wasn’t all; worried about Xu Qianli’s safety, Elder Lady Bai specially assigned eight maids to protect him.

The eight maids looked like delicate young beauties in their twenties, but their strength was terrifying to the extent that it made Xu Qianli click his tongue in awe.

Just showing a fraction of their capabilities—catching bullets with bare hands, splitting over a dozen tough red bricks with their bare hands, throwing darts that easily penetrated large trees from a hundred meters away, punching through walls—one could not mention how terrifying they were.
