The group was led all the way to the living room. It had to be said that the Shao family really had a strong foundation.
Even the servant who led the way was in the Houtian state. There were strange flowers and strange plants on the road. It was a feast for the eyes. There was even a small-scale spirit gathering array that was surrounded by a faint spiritual aura, it made the surrounding ancient buildings look even more extraordinary.
Even the disciples from good families had never seen such a grand decoration. Even the four great academies did not have such a grand decoration like the Shao family. Lin Bai should be the most calm and composed one among them.
“This is our family head.”
Lin Bai looked over and saw a middle-aged man sitting in the leader’s seat. He had a mighty figure and his tiger eyes were bright and full of vigor. The pressure emitted from his body was like a huge mountain. He was probably at the grandmaster state.
Everyone lowered their heads in the face of such a person. That was the pressure of a person in authority. They could not even raise their heads to look at him directly. Even the leading teacher was afraid of offending Shao Feng and avoided his gaze.
Shao Feng also noticed that gaze. When he was about to look over, he did not see anyone. At that moment, Lin Bai had already lowered his head. He was no different from the others.
When he thought that there might be a murderer who killed Shao Yuchen, Shao Feng’s gaze became increasingly cold and ruthless. He was not in the mood to say anything. He hurriedly gave a few perfunctory words and asked the servants to take them away to rest.
When the crowd dispersed, fourth elder and the others also arrived.
“Did you find anything? Did you find the weapon that killed Chen ‘er?”
The elder shook his head. “We collected all their weapons, but we didn’t find the wooden sword that the family head mentioned.”
Shao Feng frowned. “How is that possible? Could it be that the person behind the scenes sensed our intentions and didn’t hand over the sword?”
“But if he knew that we were looking for him, he should have thought of a way to escape. Why would he follow the main group to the capital city? He even came to our family. Wouldn’t he be walking into a trap?”
The elders looked at each other and were extremely confused. “Exactly. That’s why we’re here to ask the family head.”
Shao Feng frowned and thought for a moment. “Are you sure that all the people who were in the mystic realm that day are in this group?”
The third elder saw Shao Feng’s unpleasant expression and was worried that he suspected that he was not doing a good job. He quickly said, “Family head, I guarantee with my life that everyone is here. No one has left.”
Everyone believed in the third elder’s ability. It was a little too strange.
“It seems that the murderer is hiding quite well. However, if he is a fox, he will reveal his tail sooner or later. Let’s just wait and see. Sooner or later, I will expose his true colors!”
“But what about the others?”
“Let them be. After all, they are not lacking in food. The most important thing now is to find the murderer who killed Chen ‘Er.”
On the other side, Lin Bai had no idea that he had escaped a disaster.
After the disciples of the academy were taken away to rest, Lin Bai greeted the dean and prepared to leave.
The dean asked doubtfully, “Aren’t you going to rest? Don’t tell me you know someone in the capital?”
According to his understanding, Lin Bai’s family background was ordinary. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to know anyone in the capital.
Unexpectedly, Lin Bai said, “I don’t know anyone.”
The dean of education was a little speechless. “Then why are you running around alone? If you really want to go, just wait for me to go with you so that I can take care of you.”
Lin Bai did not know whether to laugh or cry. “I’m not a three-year-old child. Are you afraid that I’ll get lost?” He waved his hand, indicating that the dean of education did not need to worry. He turned around and left. He was the first to step out of the Shao family’s door.
“Why is he out already?”
“We’re here to exchange and study in the capital city. Naturally, we have to take a good look at the local area here.”
“Oh, that’s right. We’ll tidy up later. Let’s go to the capital city for a stroll too.”
“The capital city is vast and resourceful. I heard that there are many good things. Let’s go and broaden our horizons. This trip won’t be in vain.”
Lin Bai walked to the main door but was stopped by a servant. He raised his eyebrows. “Why? Are you restricting our personal freedom?”
The servant knew that they came from a small place. A hint of disdain flashed across his eyes, but he did not show it on his face at all, “Young master, you must be joking. It’s just that you’re new here, so it’s inevitable that you’re unfamiliar with the place. The family head is worried for your safety.”
What he meant was that Lin Bai was not allowed to leave the house.
Lin Bai’s gaze was calm as he said, “Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. I’m just casually walking around. I won’t cause any trouble for the Shao family. Moreover, your family head didn’t seem to have instructed us to not allow us to leave the house, right?”
“Or are you saying that the Shao family invited us here to go to jail?”
Since he had already said that, it would be unreasonable if he tried to stop them again. The servants did not expect that Lin Bai would be so difficult to deal with. He even brought up the name of Shao Feng.
“This… Please wait a moment. I’ll go and report to the master.”
Soon, Shao Feng found out about this matter. He said in a deep voice, “Let him go!”
The fourth elder next to him frowned and said, “I’m afraid it’s not appropriate. What if the murderer takes this opportunity to escape?”
Shao Feng smiled coldly. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness. “I’m afraid the murderer won’t escape! I’ll take this opportunity to capture him and choose a skilled person to follow him.”
The third elder had been displeased with Lin Bai ever since they were on the road. It was a good opportunity for him to show off in front of Shao Feng.
“Master, I think this kid is very suspicious. We’ve traveled for so long, and we’ve encountered many demonic beasts along the way. Everyone else is resting, but this kid still wants to go out. Maybe he’s the murderer. Why don’t we just catch him?”
Shao Feng shook his head. “There’s no rush. Don’t alert the enemy. If the murderer takes advantage of the chaos and runs away, then our losses will outweigh our gains.. The most important thing now is to confirm the identity of the murderer.”
Soon, Lin Bai was let through. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a fleeting figure behind him, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Following behind Lin Bai were two core disciples of the Shao family. Both of them were at Houtian eighth stage. When he saw that the fluctuation of the man’s spiritual power in front of him was very ordinary, he immediately let his guard down.
“I don’t know what’s wrong with master, but he sent the two of us to follow this group of poor students from the countryside. What’s there to follow? It’s simply a waste of time.”
“Master must have his reasons for making such an arrangement. We’d better follow him well. If we lose him, neither of us will be able to bear the responsibility.”
Even though they were grumbling, they still followed him dutifully.
Lin Bai was walking in front of them, playing with whatever he saw.. He was no different from a country bumpkin entering the city.
