Chapitre 149: A Dangerous Neighbor

As Qiao Meng looked upon Xu Bai, his eyes narrowed with a sharp disdain, and a storm of anger brewed within his heart. 

He spoke the name, "Xu Bailong."

Qiao Meng is well-acquainted with Xu Bai. 

Amongst the people, there was another moniker associated with him—Xu Bailong, Xu the White Dragon. 

Xu Bailong had been a prodigy from a young age, excelling both in the military and literary arts. 

The relationship between the Qiao and Xu families was far from amicable; if anything, they could be considered bitter enemies.

The Xu family had once held a prominent position in the capital until their grandfather faced demotion and was exiled to Nurshira.

  In contrast, the Qiao family had deep roots in Nurshira, residing there for decades before the Xu family ever set foot in the region. 

The origins of their rivalry were veiled in the obscurity of time, yet the weight of grievances and hatred between the two families is palpable.
