Chapter 278 Visit The City Lord

The Sun hung high in the sky, the mountain breeze blew, and the leaves rustled.

“Fool Li, I didn’t expect to see you so soon! Haha! I think you might be a little bored!”

Lin Bai laughed as he walked to the mound. He held a cloth bag in his left hand. The bottom of the cloth bag was seeping with scarlet blood, dyeing half of the cloth bag red. From time to time, a few drops of blood would fall down, and his right hand held a bottle of wine.

“I don’t know if it suits your taste.”

Lin Bai sat cross-legged in front of the mound. He took out the bottle of wine and opened it. Immediately, a fragrance assailed his nostrils. He poured the wine in front of the mound and drank the rest in one gulp.

The entire night of fighting and fleeing had made Lin Bai extremely tired. Now that the good wine had entered his throat, it made his body feel warm and comfortable. His mind also became a little clearer.

Lin Bai smiled at Fool Li’s small mound again, but this smile was a little sad and bitter, but soon, Lin Bai stopped smiling. “I’ve brought you something else today. You’ll definitely like it. Unfortunately, I originally wanted to pry something out of him, but I didn’t expect that he would rather take poison to commit suicide than reveal the secrets to me.” At this moment, the scene of He Qingyuan’s determination before his death appeared in Lin Bai’s mind. He stared at Lin Bai with death in his eyes, as well as his death without any hesitation.

What was he hiding?

Lin Bai really wanted to find out, but right now, he had no time to split up. With the City Lord’s headache in front of him, Lin Bai could only temporarily suppress his strong desire to explore.

“But even if He Qingyuan isn’t there, I will definitely find out.”

Lin Bai placed the cloth bag on the ground in front of him and carefully unbuckled it. Immediately, a strong stench assaulted his nostrils. Inside was He Qingyuan’s head.

“But even if He Qingyuan isn’t there, I won’t give up. I will definitely investigate thoroughly… I want to find out what happened between the two of you and what you’re hiding.”

The time he had spent with Fool Li wasn’t long, and it wasn’t short either. However, during this long period of time, Fool Li had always looked silly and crazy.

However, in the end, Fool Li activated his cultivation to activate the mountain protection formation and saved himself from He Qingyuan’s hands. This scene was something Lin Bai couldn’t forget for a long time. There was also that sentence from Fool li, “Eldest senior brother…”

Then, Lin Bai muttered to himself in front of the small mound for a long time. After that, he sat quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, the mountain wind became stronger, pressing down on the small tree until it could not straighten its back.

“I’ll come and see you next time!”

As Lin Bai spoke, he took out the medicine that he got from the thin man from his pocket and dripped it on He Qingyuan’s head. Instantly, a white smoke rose up and was blown away by the strong wind. His hair and skin melted at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon, a white skull was left behind.

“Let him stay here!”

Lin Bai buried the skull in the soil beside the small mound. After making sure that the depth of the skull would not be taken out by the wild beasts nearby, he stood up with relief and disappeared into the forest again.

At the foot of the slope, Bai Xi sensed that someone was coming from behind. She immediately turned around and said, “Thin man and fatty have already started moving.”

Lin Bai nodded. Then, as if he had smelled something, he sniffed it with all his might.

Bai Xi laughed instead. “The two of them said that their injuries were too clear and that they were afraid of arousing suspicion, so they stabbed each other again. I really don’t know if I should say that the two of them are very smart and cautious or timid and afraid of trouble.”

When Lin Bai heard this, he could not help but laugh. The desolate feeling just now swept past him. “It’s better to be more cautious. I reckon it’s skinny’s idea.”

The thin man and fatty had set off to find the City Lord. They could not expose that they had been incited by Lin Bai. They had to disguise themselves as escaping from Lin Bai’s hands to get help from the City Lord.

If it was before, Lin Bai would definitely have left one person behind and let the other go alone to find the City Lord. However, the situation had changed now.

They had also participated in the plan to capture and kill He Qingyuan and Chu Shan. Even if they were like weeds on the wall and fell towards the City Lord, the result would still be the same — death.

With the City Lord’s heart and character, he would never allow anyone who had betrayed him to be by his side.

Hence, as long as the skinny and fatty’s heads were still normal and were not broken by the door or kicked by the donkey, they would definitely not seek refuge with the City Lord at this time.

“Seeing that you’re tired, let’s go and rest first. We’ll discuss this after they return.”

Bai Xi’s identity had always been monitored by the fat and thin duo. She did not know the whole process of this matter and was completely in the dark. Therefore, she could not leave the city for too long.

Lin Bai nodded and did not refuse. The days of running and killing had made him feel quite tired. It was time for him to have a good sleep and recuperate.

In the city, the fat and thin duo shuttled quickly, but even so, they still attracted the attention of many people.

“Big brother, don’t you think this wound is too shallow? Why don’t you give me another stab?”

The fat man frowned and looked at his right hand. There was suddenly a wound that extended from the left button all the way to the right chest. Although the wound was bandaged by the cloth to stop the bleeding.

“Hey, are you still addicted? Could it be that you unlocked some special addiction? Go, go, go, shut your mouth. You’re about to meet the City Lord!”

The skinny man said in disgust. There was a deep wound on his left arm. Apart from that, there was a wound on his chest and a wound on his back. He became a bloody man.

“But you…”

Seeing the skinny man become a bloody man, the fatty wanted to refute, but the skinny man stopped him.

“It’s necessary. I’m leading He Qingyuan to chase Lin Bai. It’s normal to get more injuries!”

The skinny man started to quibble. In fact, after their discussion with Lin Bai, the skinny man had only left a wound on his abdomen and back. However, he felt that it was not enough, so he had fatty stab him in the arm. This was also the deepest stab.

“Who is it?!”

Before the skinny man could make any further preparations, someone stopped them in front of him. That person was wearing armor and holding a long spear. His entire body was emitting a fierce aura.

“We have something to discuss with the City Lord…”

As the thin man spoke, he took out a token and showed it to that person.

“So it’s… please hurry in. The City Lord is looking for you very anxiously right now!”

When that person saw the token, his expression changed greatly. He hurriedly brought the two of them in. He led the way in front and entered the deepest part of the courtyard without any obstruction.

In fact, He Qingyuan and Chu Shan’s actions last night had already alarmed the City Lord. However, after the City Lord sent people out to search, they were still unable to find any traces of them. Until now, the City Lord still did not know what they had discovered.
