“Oh, I saw something related to me at the female Daoist’s place. Tell me what it is.”Xu Bai said.
Xu Bai was actually quite curious about that crazy female Abbey Dean.
Although he had kidnapped him to the cave, Xu Bai could feel that even though he had completely fallen into madness, he still wanted to find a trace of clarity in this madness.
Therefore, he really wanted to know what state the female Abbey Dean was in, and whether a short period of lucidity could really help her gradually recover.
Unfortunately, the Ye family head didn’t seem to be discussing this issue. After
Xu Bai asked, she organized her words and said it out loud.
“When Ye Zi was taken away, she saw something. She realized that it was exactly the same as this wood carving.”
As he spoke, the Ye Family Head pointed at the wooden carving at the side. This wooden carving was discovered by the unknown Si Zheng in the wild. When he found out that it looked exactly like Xu Bai, he brought it over to Xu Bai when he came to Wind Chimes Manor to investigate the matter of the prefecture token.
Xu Bai had been quite curious at the time. After seeing the progress bar, he had kept it by his side and had never had the time to work on it. After that, he had gone to the bottom of the river and entered the Bizarre Demon City. A series of things had happened, so he had kept it here.
Now, the Ye Family Head told him that this wooden carving had appeared at the female Abbey Dean’s place before. Moreover, Ye Zi had seen it before. Could it be that this was carved by the female Abbey Dean?
“That crazy female Taoist priest is still carving, and she has only carved a semi-finished product.
“So I suspect that this wood carving was carved by her. Perhaps it has something to do with Lord Xu.”
“But I don’t know what the connection is, so I can only tell Lord Xu.”
Xu Bai rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
Now it seemed that it was really carved by the female Abbey Dean. However, why did the female Abbey Dean carve a wood carving that was exactly the same as his? There was room for thought.
It couldn’t be that the other party admired him, so he carved it for him, right?
It was even more impossible that the other party admired and loved him, so he
carved his appearance day and night. Every night when it was quiet, he would take out the wood carving and do some strange things.
There must be a deeper reason, but Xu Bai couldn’t think of it.
However, these were not important. What was important was that he knew that Ye Zi was fine now, so he had to leave quickly and find Ye Zi as soon as possible.
It just so happened that this was on the way, so there was no time to lose and they had to set off immediately.
“Patriarch Ye, I’ll take my leave first. “Xu Bai said.
As soon as he finished speaking, his true essence energy surged, and the Fourth Stage puppet that was sitting paralyzed on the ground nearby moved. It stood up again, like a guard that didn’t know fatigue.
The Ye Family Head didn’t expect Xu Bai to say goodbye as soon as he arrived. However, hearing Xu Bai’s words, he couldn’t persuade him to stay. He just gritted his teeth and said,””Lord Xu, so many things have happened during your visit to Wind Chime Manor. It’s true that my Ye family didn’t take good care of you. If there’s anything you need to compensate, you can tell me at any time.”
How could it be as simple as not being thoughtful enough?
Xu Bai had been missing for several days. If he hadn’t come back this time, she wouldn’t know what to do.
The person that the Emperor had his eyes on, and moreover, something had happened on the way to the capital to receive a reward, and it had even happened in Wind Chimes Manor. It was absolutely impossible for the Ye family to erase this crime.
Moreover, they were not injured at all, but Xu Bai was the one who was in trouble. At that time, even if they had a hundred mouths, it would be difficult to refute. Moreover, once the emperor was furious, how could he give them a chance to refute?
Fortunately, nothing happened. Everything was just a false alarm.
“I know what you’re thinking. Don’t worry, if Ye Zi is able to fuse with the Yin Xian Song, I’ll definitely get it back for you.”Xu Bai said indifferently.
This was a deal. Xu Bai was considered a businessman at some point.
The Ye Family Head said in embarrassment,” I’ll have to trouble Lord Xu then. From now on, the Ye Family will be Lord Xu’s lackeys. If there’s anything you need, feel free to call. The Ye Family will definitely go through mountains of swords and seas of flames. We won’t hesitate.”
Xu Bai smiled and shifted his gaze away from the Ye Family Head to Kong Xu.
Kong Xu didn’t say anything. He just stood there silently.
Did he want to talk?
Of course he wanted to talk.
However, he knew that now was not the time to talk. After all, the two of them were still discussing important matters. If he interrupted them rashly, Xu Bai would not be happy, and the loss would outweigh the gain.
Now that he saw Xu Bai’s gaze, he quickly took two steps forward and cupped his hands.”Lord Xu, I… Can we find a quiet place? I have something to discuss with Lord Xu.”
The Ye Family Head was a discerning person. He could tell at a glance and smiled. “Since the two of you have something to discuss, I’ll take my leave first.” With that, Ye Family Head left the room.
After the Ye Family Head left, only Xu Bai, Kong Xu, and Elder Sun were left. Xu Bai looked at Kong Xu with interest and said,””Tell me.”
This second young master of the Kong family, his father was an official in the capital. In terms of official position, he was equivalent to a provincial magistrate.
Such a person should have enjoyed a good life, but it was not enough.
He had indeed enjoyed a life of luxury, but at the same time, it also meant that he would not be able to improve for the rest of his life.
He had a big brother above him who wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible. As long as he became the family head, the next step would be to deal with him without any scruples..
