Looking at the obviously still in his teenage phase young man across from him, Bai Tang sincerely explained, "Brother, I really have nothing to do with the Dongshan Sect; I'm just a bystander."
Unfortunately, the young man did not believe Bai Tang's words at all. With a cold snort, he said, "Cut the crap," and launched an attack.
Although Tang Minglang was impulsive and immature, his skills were solid. His set of punches flowed smoothly, creating a fierce wind that posed a significant threat to his opponent. However, his opponent was on a different level—Bai Tang. Bai Tang easily dodged all of Tang Minglang's punches and, considering Tang Minglang's pride, gave him space to showcase his abilities without easily knocking him down.
Seeing that his punches were ineffective, Tang Minglang leaped back and then shot out four or five points of light from in front of him, aimed directly at Bai Tang. As a disciple of the Shuzhong Tangmen, he was naturally skilled in hidden weapons. Tang Minglang was an exceptional presence among the disciples because he could launch four or five types of hidden weapons with one hand. One of these hidden weapons was called the Seven Star Crossbow Tube, which had a spring at the bottom that held triangular short arrows. When the bottom of the tube was pressed, it would trigger the spring, shooting out seven arrows in quick succession, making it hard for anyone to dodge. In addition to the Seven Star Crossbow Tube, Tang Minglang threw out two other types of hidden weapons to seal off Bai Tang's escape routes on both sides, determined to take him down. However, this action angered Bai Tang; if someone else had been hit by those concealed arrows and hidden weapons, they would definitely be injured and bleeding. Having no grievances with Tang Minglang and only being associated with the Dongshan Sect, Bai Tang found this excessive. With just two parts of his strength, everyone outside felt a blur before their eyes as Bai Tang appeared behind Tang Minglang and kicked him off the stage.
"It seems Bai Tang has been holding back against me before," Yuan Mingyi said as he watched Tang Minglang shamefully flee into the crowd, feeling refreshed.
Bai Tang leisurely stepped down from the platform. Just as he had walked up slowly earlier—while everyone else had jumped up using lightness techniques—no one dared to mock her anymore.
Yuan Mingyi approached with a beautiful young woman following behind him.
"This is my girlfriend Tian Yanran," Yuan Mingyi introduced them.
"Sister Han is so beautiful! You're really lucky!" Bai Tang smiled.
Yuan Mingyi grinned proudly, his cheeks slightly flushed.
"Sister Bai is indeed as straightforward as my cousin," Tian Yanran said. With her long black hair tied up neatly behind her head, she appeared gentle and dignified; however, her words revealed her tough nature.
"Your cousin?" Bai Tang asked in confusion.
Tian Yanran smiled and said, "My cousin's name is Tian Yuan."
"You are Tian Yuan's cousin?" Bai Tang exclaimed in surprise.
Tian Yanran nodded. "I just spoke with my cousin on the phone. He has something to discuss with you!"
In the deep mountains where there was no signal, Tian Yuan couldn't reach Bai Tang. However, since Tian Yanran's phone had satellite communication capabilities, Tian Yuan called his cousin to ask her to help find Bai Tang.
Tian Yuan would not be in such a hurry to contact me if it weren't for something important. Bai Tang couldn't use her own phone and borrowed one from Tian Yanran.
The phone rang once before connecting. Tian Yuan's anxious voice came through: "Yanran, have you found Bai Tang?"
"Tian Yuan, what do you need me for?" Bai Tang quickly asked.
Hearing Bai Tang's voice was like a drowning person finally grabbing onto a piece of driftwood; Tian Yuan exclaimed, "Finally found you, Bai Tang. You need to hurry to Beijing."
"What happened?"
"It's not convenient to talk on the phone. Hurry down from Kunlun Mountain. I'll wait for you at the town at the foot of the mountain."
It seemed that something serious had happened; otherwise, Tian Yuan wouldn't have flown over to intercept her.
"Okay, I'll head down immediately."
Returning the phone to Tian Yanran, Bai Tang said to Yuan Mingyi: "I need to go down right away. Please take care of my dad and bring him back safely to City D."
Yuan Mingyi and Tian Yanran, who were familiar with Tian Yuan's work—having both been on missions for a special department of Nation—responded understandingly: "Don't worry. I will ensure that Uncle Bai gets back to City D safely. If anything happens to him, you can hit me!"
"Will hitting you help?" Bai Tang laughed as she walked over to Bai Dad to inform him before hurriedly heading down the mountain.
Without using any game skills, Bai Tang estimated the time it would take for Tian Yuan to travel from Kyoto to Kunlun. She arrived at the town at the foot of the mountain just before he got there. After waiting for less than ten minutes, Tian Yuan and Zhu Xu drove into the town in a Wrangler.
"Get in!" Tian Yuan shouted as he parked in front of Bai Tang.
With one hand on the ground, Bai Tang flipped into the back seat of the Wrangler. Tian Yuan immediately stepped on the gas, and the off-road vehicle shot out like an arrow.
"What could possibly be happening now?"
Tian Yuan's complexion was not good. "Bai Tang, can you still contact your Alien Friends? Can we ask them to sell us a spaceship?"
"What about the previous one?"
"It was destroyed."
"Destroyed?" Bai Tang was surprised. Was it due to the researchers' destructive power?
Tian Yuan and Zhu Xu's expressions worsened. Tian Yuan said darkly, "We had a traitor among us who leaked information about the research institute. The enemy sent a spy to infiltrate the institute to steal the spaceship and research data. We discovered them, and the spy blew up the spaceship."
"What happened to that traitor?" Bai Tang asked. She hated those who sold out national interests for personal gain.
"They tried to escape the country and were shot dead," Tian Yuan gritted his teeth.
"Good riddance," Bai Tang thought such people should suffer greatly. "Those aliens have already left Earth and won't be coming back. However, before they left, they left me a more advanced spaceship, which I can donate to the research institute without needing any money."
Since she wouldn't be going to the future anymore, having a spaceship wouldn't be of much use to her. It was better to let the country study it and help Huaxia advance into space civilization.
Tian Yuan and Zhu Xu both breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness for you! Lao Zhu, book tickets to the city immediately. Bai Tang, you’re not just keeping the spaceship at home, are you?"
"Of course not! The spaceship is stored in a spatial box and doesn't take up space. Plus, it's password protected; as long as no one can open the box, no one will know there's a spaceship inside."
"That's true; even if someone stole the box, they wouldn't be able to open it. Zhao said that the materials from the future are incredibly strong; they can't be cut or burned," Tian Yuan felt more relaxed and was in a chatting mood.
"You attended the Martial Arts Conference; how was it?"
"It was quite interesting. Your cousin is from Emei Sect; why didn't you join a sect?"
"I'm too old; no sect would accept me!" Tian Yuan lamented. "I only realized that this world truly has martial arts and chivalry after my cousin was accepted as a disciple by Emei. It's such a pity; I want to learn martial arts, but they say I'm too old and my foundation is already set. Even if I practiced martial arts, I wouldn't achieve much, so they won't accept me. My dream of being a martial arts hero has been shattered!"
"Bai Tang, you are doing quite well now, carrying a handgun with you. Most martial arts experts are no match for you," she comforted.
However, Tian Yuan was not comforted: "Those real martial arts experts, even if I have a gun, I can't hurt them. And then there are the people from the Tang Sect of Shu Region; their hidden weapons are more powerful than my gun. By the way, I heard that Yaran faced a young expert from the Tang Sect before. How did it go? Did she win or lose?"
"Of course she won. If she had lost, how could I have come here in one piece to see you? Once the Tang Sect's hidden weapons are out, it definitely ends in bloodshed."
"You are strong!" Tian Yuan gave a thumbs up. Hearing that his cousin Bai Tang easily defeated the most troublesome sect, the Tang Sect, was impressive. This girl not only joined the Hidden Sect and learned powerful skills but also met advanced aliens from another world. Why does she get all the good things? Could it be that the world they live in is actually a book, and Bai Tang is the protagonist with a halo? — Kid, congratulations! Your imagination has glimpsed the truth.
Tian Yuan drove over two hundred and fifty kilometers per hour and reached the nearest airport in less than half an hour. Three hours later, the three of them returned to City D. In fact, the spaceship had been in Bai Tang's backpack all along, but to avoid suspicion, Bai Tang had to make this trip back. When Bai Ma saw only her daughter return, she was surprised and worriedly asked Bai Dad why he didn't come home with her, fearing something had happened. Bai Tang quickly explained that Tian Yuan had urgent business with her but didn't specify what it was and assured them that Bai Dad would be home soon. Bai Ma felt relieved and didn't ask further questions since Bai Tang had already informed them about Tian Yuan's identity.
"Mom, why did you buy so many instant noodles and snacks?" Bai Tang almost tripped over a box full of instant noodles when she opened her bedroom door. Seeing three boxes of instant noodles and two large bags of snacks made her frown. Their family was currently eating vegetables produced at their gang's base; no one ate junk food like instant noodles anymore. Wasn't buying so much a waste?
"The Meihui Supermarket nearby is moving, and all products are half price. If I don't buy it, who will?" Although they had money now, Bai Ma's thrifty nature hadn't changed. "Your Mei Mei bought even more than I did; she bought five boxes of mineral water!"
Bai Tang didn't know how to respond; both families were currently drinking bottled mineral water. Were they buying so many bottles just for bathing?
The spaceship Bai Tang bought was much more advanced than the one sold to the research institute since she purchased a new model from Future World while selling them an outdated version. However, our nation's researchers were still quite impressive; in a short time, they had grasped most of the technology from the first spaceship. The second spaceship wouldn't leave them completely clueless.
The handover went smoothly, but every researcher stared at Bai Tang as if she were a prime cut of pork belly. Unable to bear it any longer, she greeted O Haosheng and Zhao Nan before quickly dropping off the box containing the spaceship and having Tian Yuan drive her away. (To be continued)
