"Mm, accept the gift and burn all the invitations." Bai Yan put down the newspaper, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile. Just send a gift and all is well after picking the wrong side? If Bai Yan agreed to the banquet invitation of any Abnormal family, it would undoubtedly be helping that family to pull out from the mire of having chosen wrongly. Bai Yan’s stance would certainly spare a family from the series of sweeps by the Huaxia Abnormality Organization headquarters against Abnormal Families in Beijing. Bai Yan was not foolish. Did they really think such small gifts would induce him to show favor? He would accept the gifts without error. As for the banquet? Dream on! Bai Yan couldn’t be bothered dealing with these families. He was happy to live comfortably on his own. As for the Abnormal Families, there naturally was Master Blood Dragon to deal with them slowly. Bai Yan had no need to cause trouble for Master Blood Dragon at this time. "Alright, I’ll call my brother now," Yan Qing said with a smile. She couldn’t care less about the complex intricacies of Beijing’s waters; she just wanted to take good care of the man she loved. Afterward. "Dinner’s ready~!!" Yan Qing’s sweet voice wafted from the kitchen. The two girls had prepared a rich lunch with delectable colors, fragrances, and flavors, which whetted Bai Yan’s appetite considerably. The lunchtime passed in a cozy atmosphere. In the following days, Bai Yan spent time with the two women, occasionally contacting the girls far away in ZH City by phone. He seemed to be focused solely on his home life, not minding the outside world in the least. Due to Bai Yan’s silence, the Yan Family and Chen Wuwei kept a distance from the Abnormal Families trying to curry favor. Everyone was watching Bai Yan and Master Blood Dragon’s moves, but both remained silent without offering any opinions, leaving everyone in anxious uncertainty, without a clue in their hearts. But then, with the spread of two pieces of news, the seemingly calm situation in Beijing once again rippled. The first piece of news was that this year’s Dragon Ascension Convention would officially take place in three days. Normally, this news wouldn’t mean much, as Beijing always held the Dragon Ascension Convention at this time every year. But, this year, the fact that the convention would proceed as usual in Beijing gave everyone pause for thought. Bai Yan was already assuredly marked as a person who would ascend through this year’s event, especially after the Sima Family had made concessions. In Beijing, Bai Yan’s prominence was unstoppable for a while! But now, the Huaxia Abnormality Organization was holding the Dragon Ascension Convention as usual, which raised the question: Does this mean a subtle shift in the organization’s attitude towards Bai Yan? Is there a rift developing between Master Blood Dragon and Bai Yan? Those with ulterior motives began to activate their own scheming thoughts. Why hasn’t Master Blood Dragon swept through Beijing’s fence-sitters with vigor after the Sima Family backed down? This uncharacteristically non-domineering behavior from Master Blood Dragon indirectly confirmed that Bai Yan might have fallen out of favor, and that Master Blood Dragon might have postponed dealing with these opportunistic families in order to start setting Bai Yan straight! And based on information disseminated by interested parties, it was certain that Bai Yan must follow the usual process and participate in this year’s Dragon Ascension Convention. However, what’s special was that he needn’t start from the bottom but would directly enter the competition as one of the top thirty-two contenders! This excited those with ulterior motives even more. Why didn’t the Huaxia Abnormality Organization simply reaffirm Bai Yan’s status as a person of Dragon Ascension? Why make him participate in the competition again? This undoubtedly indicated that Bai Yan’s status was on shaky ground in the power struggle among Beijing’s Abnormality high echelons! Without the support of the Huaxia Abnormality Organization, Bai Yan could hardly make any waves in Beijing. Without the backing of the organization, neither the Yan Family nor Chen Wuwei would likely continue to support him. Furthermore, many of Huaxia’s precious resources would no longer favor Bai Yan. The second piece of news was the return of the Sima Family patriarch, Sima Xuanxuan! No one knew when the Sima Family patriarch had returned, but one thing was certain: the strength of the Sima Family ancestor might very well exceed that of Master Blood Dragon! And yet, after the Sima family made such huge sacrifices and concessions, at a critical period where they were branded with treason, they were actually able to get Master Blood Dragon to agree to let the family’s direct heir, Sima Moyi, participate in the Dragon Ascension Conference. Under the instigation of interested parties, these two pieces of news kept spreading, causing those with intentions in Beijing to negotiate in secret constantly. The timing of these two news was too timely, undoubtedly very inspiring. Of course, what was inspired were the hearts of those flip-flopping families within the walls of Beijing. The appearance of the Sima family’s old ancestor, and Sima Moyi’s participation in the competition, made people doubt whether Master Blood Dragon and the Huaxia Abnormality Organization had made certain compromises and concessions toward the Sima family. Coupled with the rumors that Bai Yan might be falling out of favor, a series of signs indicated that the Sima family could possibly turn the tables through the Dragon Ascension Conference! In an instant, the direction of the wind in Beijing changed again, and more people sought to favor the Sima family. However, with the Sima family closing off their doors, most people were left out in the cold, but such behavior from the Sima family made everything seem even more suspicious. The calm before the storm? A retreat before an impending tempest? Many speculations were rife throughout Beijing. Many were eagerly waiting, waiting for the Sima family to fight a brilliant battle for resurgence. It has to be said that Beijing is truly Beijing; the Abnormal Families here think more and also more complexly than others. Bai Yan was unaware of these undercurrents in Beijing, but even if he knew, he most likely would just laugh it off: "A bunch of louts with nothing better to do." Just a bunch of fence-sitters who are only good at scheming, not worth Bai Yan’s concern. The true game of the Abnormal elite in Beijing, how could it be as simple as these people think? However, to Bai Yan’s surprise, on an evening two days before the Dragon Ascension Conference. A towering Dragon Pillar suddenly burst forth from the Ma Mansion area! With Qing Mang shimmering, towering high into the clouds! Dragon Power surged, enveloping the entire Beijing! A giant Azure Dragon rose from the ground into the air, its roar coiling as it flew into the sky, entering the towering Dragon Pillar! This Azure giant dragon’s Dragon Power was vast like an abyss, exerting an intense oppressive force. It was as if it were the supreme sovereign of heaven and earth, looking down upon all living beings with indifference and ruthlessness in its dragon eyes while its body seemed tangible, radiating an imperial aura throughout! This dragon vein was so extraordinary! Immediately, beneath the moonlit and starry sky, the entire Beijing exploded with excitement! "That is... the legendary towering Dragon Pillar!!!" Some exclaimed loudly, and all Abnormals and dragon vein controllers in Beijing were destined to have a sleepless night. Everyone was looking in the direction of the Ma Mansion, eyes turned toward where the phenomenon occurred. Someone was comprehending the dragon vein and had triggered the towering Dragon Pillar! Moreover, looking at the scale of this Dragon Pillar, it was in no way inferior to the two towering Dragon Pillars that Bai Yan had triggered before, and even, it seemed a bit larger! Everyone was horrified, their faces filled with shock. All fell into silence under the might of this vast and enormous towering Dragon Pillar. Such a close observation of a towering Dragon Pillar brought an unparalleled level of awe to the onlookers! The impact of this Dragon Power and Dragon Pillar was simply too great! Looking up, this towering Dragon Pillar was not only incredibly thick, but also seemed to have no end in sight! But beyond the shock, a trace of doubt couldn’t help but rise in everyone’s hearts. Who exactly triggered this towering Dragon Pillar?!!
