"Then let's go out!" Bai Ling'er said.
Dao Lord Taichu nodded, and the two of them went to the main hall of the room.
"Ling'er, these are your favorite pastries. Hurry and try them!" With that, Dao Lord Taichu took out a pastry and held it to Bai Ling'er's lips.
"Mmm, delicious! Husband, you should have some too," Bai Ling'er said.
"I just took a bath, so I won't eat any. You can have them yourself," Dao Lord Taichu said with a smile.
"Mhm." Bai Ling'er nodded.
Dao Lord Taichu and Bai Ling'er chatted as they ate pastries and drank tea.
Just as they were about to finish eating, someone knocked on Dao Lord Taichu's door.
"Your Excellencies, someone outside wishes to see you," the waiter said respectfully from the doorway.
"Oh? We have a guest? Let him in," Dao Lord Taichu said, raising an eyebrow at the waiter's words.
"Yes!" the waiter replied before turning and heading toward the hall.
Dao Lord Taichu and Bai Ling'er exchanged a glance. A trace of confusion flashed across Bai Ling'er's face, while Dao Lord Taichu wore a faint smile.
Dao Lord Taichu rose to his feet and walked toward the hall.
Before long, Dao Lord Taichu saw a young man in a green robe standing there.
The young man had an ordinary appearance, but he carried an imposing aura from head to toe. He was clearly a martial artist.
"Dao Lord Taichu, my name is Li Yunxiao. I am the Young Master of the Li Family, and I have come to pay you a visit," Li Yunxiao said, cupping his hands toward Dao Lord Taichu.
"Oh? So it is Young Hero Li. What brings you here today?" Dao Lord Taichu asked.
"Young Master, I have indeed come because of a private matter.
