Chapter 363
Chapter 363 “Bai Xiao’s Breakthrough (1)”
“All of you are going to the palace? For what?”
It’s quite unfortunate but the one being grabbed at was none other than Bai Zheng Xiang (bastard father), and based on that expression he’s showing, it’s obvious the man was feeling rather impatient at being stopped.
Don’t these old bones know the palace grounds can’t be trespassed by just anyone?
In truth, Ren Yi (Second Shifu) and his two brothers here had seen the bastard’s portrait before, but due to how haggard the person before them were, they just couldn’t recognize him. Moreover, there’s bound to be some difference from a picture to the real person. That’s why it’s normal these three elders couldn’t recognize the middle-aged man.
“Of course it’s to search for someone we know. Tell me right away where to look!” Due to how urgent Ren Yi was inside, he had somehow missed the contemptable gleam emulating out of the man’s iris.
Going to the palace to find someone? As if that would be true. I bet they are here after catching wind of the Holy Land’s recruitment, that’s why they are here! Snickering in his mouth, Bai Zheng Xiang clearly didn’t believe their story.
“Everyone,” making a fake cough, “I do have some connections within the palace. Why don’t you tell me who you are looking for, maybe I can help?”
Lighting up at the claim, the second elder became overjoyed: “Really? We are looking for Bai Yan, do you know if she’s in the palace right now?”
Bai Yan!
Sure enough, the name instantly causes the bastard’s complexion to change dramatically.
These old bones are actually here to seek out that unfilial girl?! Can it be, they are in some sort of illicit relationship? Otherwise why else would they come so far to see her?
With that thought in mind, Bai Zheng Xiang then takes another careful look at the elder’s face. Due to how red and excited Ren Yi was in his face, the bastard assumed it must be true despite it being only his one sided opinion.
“Everyone, I advise you to stay away from her, otherwise you might get involved with more trouble than you can handle.” Raising a contemptable smirk, this shameful example of a father then puts on the air of superiority.
“What do you mean by that?” Losing all level of kindness from his face, Ren Yi instantly got very dark.
“Bai Yan has offended one of the disciples from the Holy Land so she won’t be able to survive much longer. I’m only advising you three out of kindness based on your old age. Turn back now before it’s too late.”
Bai Zheng Xiang would of course not do this out of kindness. He’s only worried that the girl would eliminate these three once they seek her out. A dead person can’t talk, meaning he won’t have any evidence to prove their illicit relationship if she kills them on the spot!
Therefore, the only option left was to trick them to his home. Only at the Bai House will he be able to use them to his bidding.
As nice as the idea was for the bastard across from them, Ren Yi and his two brothers behind him were all showing a strange light in their eyes at the claim.
Bai Yan offended a disciples of the Holy Land? What the heck is that? There’s actually a dumb enough disciple within the ranks to provoke her?
“What is the name of that disciple?” Wrinkling his brow, it was Zheng Qi (First Shifu) who asked.
“Lu Zifeng,” the bastard readily answers with his chin raised into the sky.
Lu Zifeng? Who’s that?
Qiu Shu Rong (Third Shifu) was silent for a while before muttering to his brothers: “If I remember correctly, the one leading the group over here to the Liu Huo Kingdom is called just that. Ha, that Lu Zifeng got quite the gals there.”
Isn’t he? There’s not a single core disciple within the Holy Land daring enough to provoke my precious disciple, now a simple innercircle is flaunting about and making up a storm? The guy must be broken in the head or something.
