My Connections Are Expensive (8000)

When the last progress bar reached perfection, Xu Bai sat up and stared at the air in front of him.

Light blue smoke gradually appeared, and gradually gathered into a line of text in mid-air.

[You observe Nameless Saber Scripture and understand Armor Piercing Twenty-Four Styles (disabled).]

It's still the same formula, still the same taste. Xu Bai took a quick look and found that the skill this time was still the sword technique, and there were no new changes.

The next moment, the latest fusion information appeared again.

[Discovered options that can be fused and are being fused.]

[Chess Saber Four Styles+Armor Piercing Twenty-Four Styles (remaining) = Chess Saber Five Styles.]

[Integration successful.]

When the successfully fused text appeared, the next moment, the light blue smoke gradually disappeared, turning into a stream of information and passed into Xu Bai's mind, and it disappeared in an instant.

At this time, Xu Bai originally thought that it would still be the same improvement, at most it would be armor-breaking and severe injuries. Unexpectedly, after he absorbed the information in his mind, he found that he had a new direction.

The latest panel appears.

[Name: Xu Bai.]

[Realm: Fourth Rank Loose Cultivator.]

[Chess Saber Five Styles (Level 7): Full level.]

[Inverted Purple Firmament Gale Wind Yin Yang Break (Level 6): Full level.]

[Returning Wind Flowing Snow (Level 5): Full level.]

[Movement Breaking Three Turns (Level 5): Full level.]

[Cosmic Shift (Level 4): Full level.]

[Vajra Heart Demon Body (level 4); full level.]

[Strengthening Kidney Gathering Art (Level 5): Full level.]

[Hundred Poisons True Explanation (Level 3): Full level.]

[Ingenious Craft Puppet Technique (Level 6): Full level.]

[Undying Body (disabled) (level 5): full level.]

[Comprehension: Full level.]

In addition to reaching the seventh level, that is to say, corresponding to the skills of the third level, it also adds a special effect.

Xu Bai pulled out Black Saber Hundred Rends from his waist and waved it towards the air not far away. The next moment, Black Saber Hundred Rends exploded and turned into fragments all over the sky.

Under the influence of Xu Bai True Yuan Power, every piece of fragment is performing a sword technique, and this sword technique is Chess Saber Five Styles.

It looked ordinary, not much different from before, but he understood that it had a very special function.

Before he could try anything, Ye Zi next to him said something.

"Sir, why do I feel like these fragments are conscious?" Ye Zi stared at the fragments all over the sky. He couldn't help but put his hand gently on Xu Bai's shoulder, his fingers trembling slightly.

She had a feeling that when Xu Bai used the knife before, every fragment was powerful enough, but now every fragment here, in addition to being powerful enough, also has a faint edge.

The most important thing is that this edge is like a human being, giving people a sense of consciousness.

"Saber Intent." Xu Bai gently patted Ye Zi's hand, telling Ye Zi not to panic.

Saber Intent? Ye Zi was stunned. She was not in this industry, and of course she didn't understand what it meant.

But if you have never eaten pork, have you never seen a pig running?

It is said that anyone who is strong in the profession will understand its true meaning and their strength will be doubled.

For example, a good swordsman who uses a long knife for many years will understand the so-called Saber Intent. After understanding Saber Intent, his strength will increase by several levels.

"Now, I may be able to fight with a second-grade master with this sword skill." Xu Bai thought to himself as he looked at the fragments flying in the sky.

Before this, his strength had already become invincible in the fourth level. Even many fourth level masters could not compare with him. After all, when it came to group battles, Black Saber Hundred Rends's group battle power was simply the pinnacle.

If a third-level master comes to him and fights against him, with his various full-level abilities, he can make it impossible for the opponent to come back.

But the second grade is different. For every profession, the second grade is a qualitative change. For example, after a martial artist reaches the second grade, he will be able to have long-range abilities. Therefore, the second grade is an excellent watershed and the difference between whether a profession is strong or not.

But Xu Bai is different. With Saber Intent, he can fight with the second grade. There is no other reason. Saber Intent is the essence.

Saber Intent's improvement in sword skills is really terrifying. After all, many second-level masters may not be able to understand Saber Intent.

And to what extent? His current Chess Saber Five Styles, with Saber Intent, has directly doubled its power.

Moreover, he still has hundreds of fragments...

Chess Saber Five Styles, which doubled its power for hundreds of dollars, would make even the second-tier player frown.

"Okay! Okay!"

Xu Bai was so happy that he hugged Ye Zi and kissed her hard.

Ye Zi felt weak all over and lay in Xu Bai's arms.

She knew that this was a great thing for the young master, and she was also happy to see him promoted.

As an elite trained by the Ye Family, Ye Zi actually understands men very well in many cases.

When a man gets something perfect, he needs a woman to praise him.

Low-level compliments are just words.

And high-level praise... also comes with your mouth.

Ye Zi moved the hand around Xu Bai's waist up and down, raised his fair face, put it close to Xu Bai's neck, and breathed out like a blue. "Young master has made a breakthrough, Ye Zi wants to reward you."

Xu Bai was slightly startled, feeling the hot air spurting from his neck. He put a hand through the crook of Ye Zi's leg and threw Ye Zi on the bed.

Then... pull the curtain...

A scene.

The next day.

Xu Bai got up early and prepared to leave Pottery Earth Prefecture and go to the next place.

Ye Zi got up earlier than Xu Bai and had already packed everything.

Fourth-Rank Puppet carries a long knife at his waist, and carries a baggage of various knife skills on his back, all of which Ye Zi has sorted and packed.

There are still sixteen copies of Nameless Saber Scripture left, and Xu Bai doesn't know if he will finish them all on the way when he reaches the destination, but he can read every one he can on the way.

"Sir, shall we set off now?" Ye Zi, with a veil covering his cheeks, asked while helping Xu Bai get dressed.

She always knew her place. Even though she had a special relationship with Xu Bai, she still dressed Xu Bai.

As for the next stop, Wind Chime Prefecture, Ye Zi actually didn't have much idea, so just go.

According to the Ye Family's rules, whenever Ye Family's elites are sent out, they will in turn help Ye Family.

But Ye Zi doesn't want to.

Not only did she not want to, she was unwilling.

In the past, she might have had this idea, but since that night when Xu Bai protected her behind her, she had given up this idea.

Even if someone from the Ye Family stabbed her in the back in the future, she would not want to.

The reason is simple. She doesn't want the relationship with Xu Bai to be just a transaction between the Ye Family.

It's good now, Xu Bai doesn't regard her as a transaction, but as a person.

If she upset this balance, she would regret it to death.

"Don't worry, Ye Family won't do anything to you." Xu Bai said, "If you really need my help, I will do my best."

Ye Zi was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing. He couldn't help but lower his head and tangled his fingers together.

She didn't expect to get this answer, which meant that the young master really wanted to help her and prevent her from being poked in the back.

"Thank you, Master." Ye Zi said softly.

Xu Bai smiled, raised his hand and rubbed Ye Zi's head. "Let's go."

"Yeah." Ye Zi's voice was like a mosquito, and he hummed softly.

The two of them left the inn without stopping, rode fast horses, and headed towards the next location.

Gradually moving away from the bustling Pottery Earth Prefecture, along the road of Shadow Courier Station, there was another burst of speed.

Ye Zi was sitting in front, Xu Bai was sitting behind Ye Zi riding a horse, and Fourth-Rank Puppet was running with all his strength on the ground.

Of course, in order to prevent Nameless Saber Scripture from falling out of the package, Xu Bai still took it out from Fourth-Rank Puppet and let Ye Zi hold it in his arms.

Fortunately, Fourth-Rank Puppet is not a human, he is just an ingenious person who is tireless and can keep up.

Ye Zi leaned in Xu Bai's arms, rising and falling with the running of the horse, and turned around and said, "Master, when you go to Wind Chime Prefecture this time, remember to go to the Ye Family to ask for a book on the soul."

She had told Xu Bai before that Xu Bai still had some shortcomings, such as the soul. If the soul did not have these shortcomings, he would not be affected by her when he saw her that day.

Ye Family is Strange Sound Master of the musician branch. Its essence is to use music to influence other people's souls. It can make the other party's movements slow down or even cause the soul to be injured and die. It can also detect the other party's secrets and make the other party tell them without reservation.

When it comes to supporting functions, Strange Sound Master is undoubtedly strong.

Last time at Pottery Earth Prefecture, Ye Zi also played a decisive role.

The soul is indeed Xu Bai's shortcoming. After all, Vajra Heart Demon Body's black light cannot prevent attacks from the soul, and Undying Body cannot repair the soul.

If Undying Body could be repaired, the peerless genius Great Feng Kingdom would not have become a fool and is still missing.

So this time he was going to the Ye Family, and he had to get a progress note.

"By the way, you Ye Family are so blatantly trying to win over high-ranking officials and powerful people. What does His Majesty the Emperor think of this?" Xu Bai thought of this question and asked.

According to what Ye Zi said, Ye Family really relied on this move to gain a firm foothold in Wind Chime Prefecture, and even many big families did not dare to offend him easily.

But it's so blatant, doesn't the emperor have any objection to this?

Ye Zi turned slightly sideways to make himself sit more comfortably, then put his ear on Xu Bai's chest, listening to the beating sound of Xu Bai's chest, with his eyes closed and a look of enjoyment on his face. Shou said, "Master, the reason why Ye Family dares to do this is because he has a certain degree of control and does not dare to do anything against the Great Chu Kingdom. And even if he really has this idea, those high-ranking officials and dignitaries would not dare to do it."

The reason is actually very simple.

Chu Emperor will always be Chu Emperor. As long as Chu Emperor is around for a day, all the high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the Great Chu Kingdom will bow their heads.

Just like Rising Dusk King, when he returned, Border Pass, which was originally unstable, has become increasingly stable.

The so-called things Ye Family did were always just trivial matters in the eyes of King Chu.

If it really broke through the so-called bottom line, Ye Family would have been wiped out long ago.

Xu Bai nodded and said, "Next Shadow Courier Station, take a rest, replenish food and water before setting off."

The fast horse continued to move forward, and in the blink of an eye, it had disappeared into the distance.

Zhangyun County.

A small county located in Wind Chime Prefecture Lantern Road.

But at this moment, Zhangyun County Shadow Courier Station, a big shot came.

In the dilapidated Shadow Courier Station, a dozen uniformly dressed people with weapons were sitting in front of a table, and next to the table, sat a young man wearing brocade clothes.

Next to the young man is an old man wearing a black gown. The old man looks to be in his seventies. Although his hair is a bit gray, overall, not only does he not have an air of age, but his spirit is more like that of a young man.

"This Shadow Courier Station eats like pig food." The young man took a bite, spat it out with a disgusted look on his face, and took a sip of water.

Next to him, the old man did not speak, but stood respectfully, waiting for the young man to eat.

The old man put his hands in his sleeves and his sleeves bulged.

"Old Sun, how long will it take to get to Wind Chime Prefecture?" The young man said very impatiently, "I'm a little tired of this long journey."

Old Sun Hearing the young man's words, he took a step forward, bent down and said, "Master, we will arrive in three days. Shadow Courier Station The food is too bad. Otherwise, I should go to the carriage and bring some for the master."

The young man waved his hand and said, "No, eating the food here has already made me sick. By the way, are you sure Ye Family has helped me find a good candidate?"

Old Sun nodded and said, "It is said that the woman's name is Ye Yu. She is the elite of the Ye Family's generation. She was specially prepared for the young master. Her purpose is to gain access to our Kong Family's power."

Hearing this, the young man said, "If I hadn't heard that these women Ye Family are very beautiful, I wouldn't have accepted this gift from them. If this young master wants these things, they are all available."

Old Sun quickly nodded in agreement.

At this time, the chatterbox had already started. Seeing that the opportunity was better, Old Sun took this opportunity to say another thing.

"Master, on this trip Wind Chime Prefecture, you may meet a person named Xu Bai. If possible, do not conflict with him." Old Sun said slowly.

The man named Kong Xu, known as the young master, nodded when he heard this.

"Of course I've heard of his name, so of course I won't conflict with it."

Old Sun nodded and said nothing.

Kong Xu took another sip of water to dilute the taste in his mouth. He looked Old Sun up and down, and an imperceptible look flashed in his eyes.

This look was extremely complicated, with a very vague disgust.

Kong Family, Capital City's famous family, the head of the Kong Family's family is an official in the imperial city. In terms of status, it is almost the same as the state order.

Jing Prefecture, Prefecture, Province, and Circuit, of these four names, only Jing has no order.

Just kidding, there is only one Jing, how can there be Ling.

But those who are officials in Beijing are not ordinary characters.

For example, his Kong Family status is equivalent to a state order.

But this trip of his was because Ye Family wanted to curry favor with his family, so he asked him to come here specially to choose a qualified woman.

Speaking of his position, it is actually very embarrassing in the Kong Family.

He is not a direct descendant, but a concubine. He has an elder brother above him, and the relationship between his brothers is difficult to describe.

As an official in Capital City, Kong Family has been a scholar since he was a child. He started out as an ordinary Academy in Jiangnan Province, but has reached where he is now. Kong Family climbed from the bottom to where he is now.

But Kong Family, who climbed up from the bottom, didn't know which tendon was wrong, and paid more attention to the so-called status.

For example, his eldest brother was usually very different from him, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, in terms of status, it was reasonable and reasonable for his eldest brother to inherit the position.

Fortunately, the head of the Kong Family's family still cares about reputation, and he is pretty good to him. Even this Wind Chime Prefecture group was arranged by the head of the Kong Family's family.

But Kong Xu knew very well that this so-called arrangement also completely determined his position, so that he would not have the idea of competing with his elder brother.

Even this Old Sun was the bodyguard assigned to him by the owner of the family.

A master at the second level peak level, good at unarmed kung fu.

It's said to be a bodyguard, but it's actually more of a surveillance.

If he really had this idea, he would probably end badly.

Not to mention the relationship between father and son, Kong Xu knew his father very well, and the reason why he could become a rich man was because he cared about reputation.

Just because he cares about his reputation, he cannot be allowed to take over the family. Otherwise, if word spreads that he has been taken over by a concubine, the owner Kong Family will probably lose his face.

Of course, in Kong Xu's opinion, only those who are virtuous can make the family flourish, become more prosperous, and reach a higher level.

But Master Kong Family is such a person, and his eldest brother is not a useless waste, so his position is particularly embarrassing now.

He accepted his father's arrangement, took in a Wind Chime Prefecture Ye Family woman, and lived the life of a rich man honestly, which seemed pretty good.

But Kong Xu knew very well that this state of affairs would never last long. Once his eldest brother became the head of the family, his position might really be in jeopardy.

His eldest brother is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he will make clear arrangements for him when the time comes.

"So... I am trying to find a way out for myself, and you are all forcing me to do so." Kong Xu looked at Old Sun next to him and thought to himself.

At this time, Shadow Courier Station is particularly quiet.

It is a county Shadow Courier Station in itself. The area here is also very small, so there are not many people.

Just when Kong Xu and the others were about to rest for a while, the sound of rapid horse hooves suddenly sounded.

Kong Xu put down the water glass in his hand, looked where the sound came from, and frowned slightly.

A man and a woman arrived on fast horses. The woman was veiled and her face could not be seen clearly. After the man tied the fast horse to the stable, he hugged the woman's waist and picked her up.

Next to the man and woman, there was a man covered in black clothes. His face and gender could not be seen clearly. He also had an ordinary knife on his waist.

Kong Xu narrowed his eyes slightly.

He recognized this man.

——Xu Bai.

As early as when Xu Bai was preparing to go to Beijing to receive the award, his portrait had already appeared in the hands of many people. After all, a person like this would naturally attract the attention of many forces.

Kong Xu was naturally concerned. He looked at Xu Bai and thought to himself, "I didn't expect to meet him here."

Old Sun also saw Xu Bai and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The second young master is Xu Bai. Don't have any issues with him."

Until now, most of these big families have been cautious and will not make problems in some details.

Kong Xu nodded and agreed, but he was thinking about other things.

Xu Bai naturally discovered the situation here. After all, there were more than a dozen people gathered around, and it was difficult not to be discovered.

But this has nothing to do with him.

Xu Bai took Ye Zi with him, and after Shadow Courier Station bought new supplies, he was ready to leave.

He had to hurry up and get to Wind Chime Prefecture early so that he could complete one thing early. Moreover, the progress bar of the divine soul had been falling in his heart. Of course he wanted to get it early.

But sometimes, the more you want to leave as soon as possible, the more you can't leave.

Kong Xu stood up, ignored Old Sun's obstruction, walked a few steps in front of Xu Bai, and blocked Xu Bai's way.

Xu Bai stopped.

Before he could take action, Fourth-Rank Puppet next to him pulled out the long knife from his waist.

"I've seen Lord Xu, and Kong Xu is so polite." Kong Xu showed no fear at all. He raised his fists and saluted slightly to Xu Bai.

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and looked the man up and down.

He thought he was here to stir up trouble or assassinate him again, but he didn't expect this man to salute him directly, which was something.

"Kong Xu?" Xu Bai sounds like he has never been exposed to this name.

"Young master, Kong Family is from the Kong Family." Ye Zi appropriately acted as a tool and explained to Xu Bai, "Kong Family is in Capital City As an official, although his strength is not strong, the Kong Family chief officer level is equivalent to the state order. Kong Xu is the second young master of the Kong Family. I remember that Ye Family seems to be giving him a member."

"Oh?" Xu Bai thought slightly and said, "Master Kong blocked my way, why?"

Knowing the identity of the other party, there was naturally a reason why the other party stopped in front of him and did not take action immediately. Xu Bai wanted to hear why.

At this time, Old Sun and others rushed over.

"Lord Xu, my young master saw you, so he couldn't help but want to come over and say hello. He had no other intention." Old Sun said hurriedly, as if he was afraid of offending Xu Bai.

Except for those who want to assassinate him, other officials, as long as they understand some official principles, know that they must be on good terms with Xu Bai.

Old Sun is afraid that his second young master will not understand the truth and offend Xu Bai. If Sun Family is tripped up, it will not be good.

Xu Bai felt strange when he heard this.

I didn't expect that his current status would be like this. Even an official in Capital City would be so careful about him.

But to say that these Capital City officials are indeed smart, even the members of these families are not all idlers.

After all, sitting in that position, it is impossible for them to neglect the education of family members. If family members are arrogant and domineering, they may get burned.

That's Capital City. It doesn't have many things, it just has many officials.

"Lord Xu, are you going to Wind Chime Prefecture on this trip?" Kong Xu asked.

From beginning to end, he never glanced at Ye Zi, his eyes always stayed on Xu Bai.

Ye Zi is so beautiful that even if she wears a veil, she can't hide her aura.

But Kong Xu understands very well that if a person like Xu Bai has a beautiful woman by his side, Kong Xu will never look around, because looking around will cause something to happen to him.

"That's right." Xu Bai nodded and said.

His itinerary has never been a secret. After all, those who want to assassinate him are probably already aware of it.

It doesn't hurt to say it.

"I see Lord Xu is only riding a fast horse. How can one horse seat three people? How about Lord Xu ride in the carriage with me, and I also want to go to Wind Chime Prefecture." Kong Xu invited.

Xu Bai Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "I'm used to being alone, so I don't really want to ride in your carriage. If it's really because of this, Master Kong may be disappointed."

There was no need for him to ride in the carriage. From Kong Xu's point of view, Fourth-Rank Puppet was a real person. But in fact it's just a puppet.

He and Ye Zi rode a horse, which was much faster than a carriage.

When Kong Xu saw this, he didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at a subordinate next to him and said, "Get another fast horse for Lord Xu."

The men were stunned for a moment, but soon brought a horse over.

"Lord Xu, if you don't want to go with us, this fast horse will be treated as a gift from me to Lord Xu. Lord Xu don't refuse." Kong Xu didn't care at all about Xu Bai's unwillingness to go with him, and instead sent a fast horse over.

Xu Bai smiled and said nothing.

At this time, Fourth-Rank Puppet next to him stepped forward and caught the fast horse.

"Just one horse may not be enough. Master Kong, if you want to achieve your idea, you may need more." Xu Bai hugged Ye Zi, turned on the horse, and said, "Xu is in a hurry, so I won't stay any longer. Take my leave."

After saying that, Xu Bai left quickly.

Fourth-Rank Puppet got a horse and rode behind him.

Kong Xu stared in the direction of Xu Bai. It wasn't until Xu Bai walked away that he recalled Xu Bai's words and fell into deep thought.

Next to him, Old Sun suddenly said, "Second Young Master, please don't do anything stupid."

He is from Kong Residence, so he naturally knows that the master just wants the second young master to live the life of a rich man, and does not want the second young master to mess up his elder brother's situation.

But looking at today's situation, the second young master also wants to make friends with Xu Bai, so there are many ways to talk about it.

Kong Xu recovered from the silence and said, "Old Sun, who do you think is more suitable between me and eldest brother?"

Old Sun was stunned for a moment and sighed, "The second young master is more suitable, but the master is convinced that only the eldest master is legitimate. He wants to save face."

"Yes." Kong Xu said slowly, "But I think that if you want your family to flourish, only the virtuous will live there."

"What you do makes it difficult for me." Old Sun said, "Besides, you are friends with Xu Bai. Whether he will survive to Capital City along the way is unknown. Why waste time here, as long as you don't offend him."

"No, he can." Kong Xu said, "I am very accurate in reading people. Don't forget, in addition to being a scholar, I have also studied as a divination master. I just gave him a divination."

Having said this, Kong Xu couldn't bear it anymore and spat out a mouthful of blood. His face became extremely pale, and he didn't know when he was injured.

Old Sun was startled, and when he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Kong Xu.

"It's all blurry. With my fifth-level strength as a scholar and a divination master, I can't see anything." Kong Xu looked very weak. "Will such a person die on the road?"

Old Sun was silent, and after a long time, he said, "But I..."

"You have a daughter. If the eldest brother succeeds as the head of the family, she will be my concubine." Kong Xu looked directly at Old Sun and said firmly, "And I will marry her as my wife. From then on, you Old Sun will take off your identity as a domestic servant and become my father-in-law."

Old Sun was silent again, as if he was restrained by Kong Xu's words, and did not respond for a long time.

After another moment, Old Sun broke away from the silent atmosphere, with a complex look in his eyes.

He looked at the dozen men around him with murderous intent in his eyes. "If this is true, these people cannot stay."

The topic they just talked about is very secret and must not be heard by these people, otherwise disaster will be imminent.

"There is no need to kill them, they are already my people." Kong Xu handed Old Sun a pill and said, "Old Sun, take it. This is an antidote. You can run True Qi and you will know that you have been poisoned by me."

Old Sun was stunned for a moment, then tried to run True Qi, and found that it was really the case. He couldn't help but said in shock, "You have wanted to see Xu Bai for a long time, and you have also wanted to get rid of me as a thorn in your side."

The subordinates around him were already Kong Xu, but he was not. And he was poisoned when he came, and the result was obvious.

"I worked hard to get such a poison. If I had known that Old Sun would agree, I wouldn't have done it. Fortunately, there is an antidote." Kong Xu said helplessly, "There is nothing we can do about it. If my eldest brother really succeeds, I will not be far away from death."

Old Sun smiled bitterly and took the antidote, "I will accompany you just once, but you have to remember what you said."

"My father-in-law is here, please bow to your son-in-law." Kong Xu bowed and saluted.

In Shadow Courier Station, everything was quiet.

They spoke so quietly that no one heard them.

In the wilderness.

Xu Bai is riding a fast horse and is rushing towards Wind Chime Prefecture.

Ye Zi leaned on Xu Bai's chest, raised his head, looked at Xu Bai's face, and said, "Sir, it seems that the second young master Kong Family wants to curry favor with you in order to alleviate his anxiety."

"I know." Xu Bai looked forward and said calmly.

"Why do you know, Master?" Ye Zi asked curiously.

"The so-called second young master, just these two words have already reflected its true meaning." Xu Bai smiled and said, "The power struggle in this family is probably at this level."

Ye Zi chuckled, "Young Master is extremely resourceful and can figure out the pattern without Ye Zi reminding you.

In fact, the Kong Family second young master and his brother have always been at odds with each other. The head of the Kong Family family has already appointed his brother as the next heir. As expected, when his eldest brother takes over, his life may not be guaranteed. "

Xu Bai freed up a hand and rubbed Ye Zi's head, causing Ye Zi to murmur for a while before saying, "You really know everything."

What Ye Zi said just now is indeed no different from what he thought.

Ye Zi said, "The cultivation of the family has given us a general understanding of the forces in the world, and we can just help the young master. Young Master, what do you think?"

"What do I think?" Xu Bai pondered, "If he is just a fast horse and wants to make friends with me, my friendship is too cheap. What he thinks exactly depends on what he will do next. Isn't he going to the Ye Family? There will definitely be intersections later."

"Hmm..." Ye Zi hummed, moved his head, changed to a more comfortable position, and leaned into Xu Bai's arms.

The fast horse went further and further away. Along the way, Xu Bai no longer stopped and headed directly towards the destination.

And it was very quiet along the way. There was no so-called assassination, as if everything had returned to calm.

When Xu Bai was already half done with the next book Nameless Saber Scripture, he finally arrived at Wind Chime Prefecture.
