Chapter 188: The Silver Lining
Just as Chen Yan and Lin Bai were talking, general manager Zhao suddenly arrived and said something to Chen Yan. His face became even more unsightly as he asked in disbelief.

“Did they really say that?”

General manager Zhao nodded and said with a solemn expression, “It’s a special period now. The elders and the Vice City Lord had no choice but to come up with this idea. If it succeeds, it’s better than doing nothing now.”

“Moreover, the suppressive effect of these pills is getting weaker and weaker. I’m afraid that it won’t be able to be suppressed at that time. Therefore, we have to find a way to refine the pills as soon as possible.”

The two of them were a little vague, but Lin Bai could guess from just a few words that the City Lord’s condition had worsened.

General Manager Zhao walked straight to the main hall. After that, he selected some alchemists to leave with him. From then on, there would be some alchemists leaving with general manager Zhao every day.

Everyone did not know where they had gone. All they knew was that they had never returned. Although they did not understand what had happened, they could see that the atmosphere in the City Lord’s Estate was becoming more and more solemn and tense.

It was as if there was a huge rock that could not be seen. It pressed down on everyone until they could hardly breathe. For a few days in a row, the weather outside was gloomy and bleak. There was not the slightest bit of sunlight. It was like a haze that shrouded the City Lord’s Estate.

Lin Bai noticed that during these days, there were many inexplicable auras in the City Lord’s Estate. Although they hid it well, he still found some clues. It could be seen that these people were all experts with high cultivation.

Most importantly, they were all spread out in the restricted area that connected the entrance of the City Lord’s Estate to the underground. They tightly guarded the place. Lin Bai wanted to take a look at the situation, but he knew that if he rushed over now, he would definitely be discovered.

Lin Bai had pretended to pass by and was still some distance away from the entrance to the restricted passage. When he realized that he was locked onto by an extremely concealed and powerful aura, he decided to stop exploring.

If he didn’t find any useful clues by then, it would be terrible if those people found out and misunderstood that he had evil intentions.

However, Lin Bai was still unwilling. He had an idea and summoned Little Treasure. Little Treasure had a stealth attribute and could blend well with the environment. Only someone with the cultivation of a martial great grandmaster could find it.

“Little Treasure, go over there and see what the situation is like.”

Little Treasure disappeared like a wisp of smoke. When it got close, it didn’t attract anyone’s attention.

A pair of eyes the size of green beans popped out from the grass that was about half the height of a man. Then, as if there was a gentle breeze, they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“Why do I feel like something went in just now?”

A deep male voice suddenly sounded in the air, but it was only his voice and no one was seen. Then, another voice sounded.

“You are simply being paranoid. Who would be able to barge in right under our noses? Furthermore, the restrictions are not for show. If someone were to barge in, how could there be no reaction?”

After a moment, the voice said, “That’s true.”

After that, everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened. After all, who would have thought that there would be such a heaven-defying existence like Little Treasure? It could be said to be the nemesis of all restrictions. It could simply ignore everything and come and go as it pleased.

Ordinary treasure-hunting rats might have such abilities, but they were far from being like Little Treasure.

Soon, Lin Bai saw Little Treasure’s figure. “What’s the situation inside?”

Although Little Treasure couldn’t speak human language, because it had signed a contract with Lin Bai, it could communicate with him telepathically. Furthermore, from the images that Little Treasure sent back, Lin Bai could guess the situation there.

“Not only are there people guarding the entrance, there are also quite a number of masters who have entered. There are even a few more restrictions and formations added.”

Lin Bai couldn’t help but fall into deep thought. Looking at these formations and formations, it didn’t seem like they were to prevent people from entering. Instead, it seemed like they were to suppress something.

He couldn’t help but think of the two strange creatures that he had encountered underground. “Could it be to suppress them?”

Lin Bai had many doubts in his heart. Initially, he wanted to pick a time and make another trip to see if he could find any new clues. However, looking at the current situation, he reckoned that it would be very difficult for him to sneak down again.

Just as he was thinking of entering the underground again, Chen Yan came looking for him.

“Today, I’m going to take you to another place. The existence of that place is an important secret of the City Lord’s Estate. No matter what you see or what you encounter, you must not reveal it. Otherwise, you will be killed! Make your preparations. We will set off at night.”

Lin Bai was puzzled. Other than the building underground, what other place was there in the City Lord’s Estate? However, he did not show it on his face and only nodded his head in agreement.

After all, from Chen Yan’s look, he knew that this matter was not simple. Even if he asked, he probably would not be able to get anything out of it. It was better to just let it be and let the other party relax instead.

As expected, seeing that Lin Bai was so obedient, Chen Yan’s expression was very satisfied. He privately reminded him, “That place is very dangerous. However, don’t worry. As long as you don’t wander around, there won’t be any accidents.”

Hearing his words, Lin Bai’s heart became even more curious.

At night, he arrived at the location Chen Yan had mentioned on time. Other than him, there were also a few other alchemists. General Manager Zhao was also here.

After seeing that everyone had arrived, general manager Zhao led the way in front. As Lin Bai walked, he realized that this road was the one that led to the underground restriction.

Along the way, everyone was very careful. They didn’t dare to whisper to each other. They all lowered their heads and walked. It was likely that general manager Zhao had said something earlier..
