Human Calculation Scripture (8000)

Seeing the final progress bar complete, Xu Bai rubbed his hands together excitedly.

He had always wanted this second-grade divination book. He had seen how Kong Xu used it before and could even predict good or bad fortune. This thing was simply an essential item for traveling the martial arts world.

As pale blue smoke appeared, it slowly gathered before Xu Bai's eyes and transformed into a line of text.

You study mathematical texts and comprehend Human Calculation Method.

After the light blue text appeared, it quickly disappeared without a trace, and then transformed into a piece of information that entered Xu Bai's mind.

There was no fusion, nor any other indication.

In Xu Bai's eyes, the latest panel appeared.

[Name: Xu Bai]

[Human Calculation Scripture (Level 8): Max Level.]

[Comprehension: Max level.]

As expected, the divination book was indeed of the second rank. Kong Xu had not lied and was really willing to pay such a high price to exchange it with him.

Xu Bai closed his eyes and carefully reviewed the information in his mind. After absorbing all the information in a few breaths, he opened his eyes again.

He has mastered all the skills and now has a thorough understanding of Human Calculation Scripture, and also has a very detailed understanding of the profession of fortune teller.

Diviners, within this vast profession, have many branches, and these branches are evaluated according to their abilities.

There is a traditional school of thought that focuses on the interaction of the five elements in the birth chart, taking the "day stem as self" as the key, and emphasizing the interaction of the elements in the chart, including the interaction of the elements in the eight characters.

Some blind fortune tellers do not discuss the waxing and waning of the elements or the useful god. Their fortune telling is simple, quick, and accurate, and they never pass it on to non-blind people, which makes them seem very mysterious.

There is a new school of thought that uses the favorable element as the main thread in fortune telling, and employs methods such as supporting and suppressing, regulating the climate, and smoothing the flow, bringing the balance of strength and weakness to its extreme.

The Na Yin school uses the Na Yin Five Elements combined with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches' mutual generation, restraint, and transformation, as well as the symbolism of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, to predict fortune and misfortune.

Some schools of thought use the month branch as the guiding principle to determine the overall structure and assess success or failure.

There is a balance of strength and weakness, restraint, depletion, and exhaustion.

In addition to the Five Elements theory, the Shensha school supplements the theory of Shensha with the Five Elements theory of mutual generation and restraint.

There are many different kinds of things, and they are extremely complex. Each faction has many smaller branches. In short, it is an extremely complicated profession.

This Human Calculation Scripture belongs to the traditional school, but it is not entirely accurate.

In fact, many fortune-telling books are incomplete, as they are too complex and most of them focus on only a few types.

The main purpose of the Human Calculation Scripture) is to predict good and bad fortune and to Trace Tracking.

The Trace Tracking was used when Kong Xu was ambushed and killed.

Xu Bai stroked his chin, thinking to himself, "The Tong Family can serve as my test subjects to experiment with my latest skills."

This fortune-telling book now satisfies his daily needs, but Xu Bai doesn't relax. Instead, he prepares to work on the Heavy Sword Method given to him by the Jiang Family Head.

Although this Heavy Sword Method wasn't quite to his liking, it was still a book similar to a second-grade skill. Finishing it as soon as possible would greatly help his strength, since it was an offensive technique.

As for the remaining fifteen Nameless Saber Scripture, we'll have to make do with them for now and deal with them later.

"It's not that I'm fickle, it's just that this book is just too good," Xu Bai thought to himself.

Just as he was about to ask Ye Zi to bring out the book, someone knocked on the door.

"Who?" Xu Bai raised his hand, signaling Ye Zi not to take it out for the time being.

A voice sounded from outside the door, carrying a respectful tone.

"I am a member of the Jiang Family. The head of the family specifically asked me to come and tell Lord Xu that he has found a clue and is currently sending people to the Tong Family. Lord Xu should hurry over, otherwise we may miss the opportunity."

A clue found? The surprises just keep coming one after another. First, I grinded to the limit, and now I've been given another clue. Isn't this like a pillow being delivered when you're sleepy?

Thinking of this, Xu Bai asked for the location of the Tong Family and then told the people outside to go first. He then had the Fourth-Rank Puppet take the bundle before leaving with Ye Zi.

By this time, it was getting dark, and there were fewer pedestrians outside, but the aroma of food filled the air.

Great Chu Kingdom eat dinner very early. After all, except for some special professions, people here don't have to work 996 (9 am to 9 pm, 6 days a week), so they have nothing to do and eat earlier.

Fewer people means more convenience, and Xu Bai won't have to be so restrictive in his actions.

Following the address provided by the person outside the door, Xu Bai quickly found his destination.

Not far ahead was a luxurious mansion, and at that moment, a large group of people were gathered outside the gate.

Before Xu Bai could even get close, several burly men appeared in the darkness and quietly told Xu Bai to stop.

"Lord Xu, we are spies from the Jiang Family. We were ordered by the patriarch to investigate here, and today we have finally found something unusual about them," the particularly burly and robust man said respectfully.

Xu Bai grinned.

Judging by his physique alone, he must be from the Jiang Family. After all, only those who wield heavy swords can achieve this physique. Without a large build, one cannot wield a heavy sword skillfully.

Tell me what's wrong with it?

"Yes!" The burly man clasped his hands and said, "We haven't found anything else, but just yesterday, the Tong Family members were hurriedly packing their things, as if they were going to escape. We remembered the patriarch's instructions and guessed that they probably knew something and were planning to flee."

get away?

Xu Bai pondered to himself.

This was somewhat unexpected for him; he hadn't anticipated that the so-called Tong Family would have such low tolerance for hardship.

In fact, he hadn't considered that anyone would have a high tolerance for the Blood Slaughtering Saber Wielder, since he was the kind of person that even a stray dog on the street would kick twice.

"Do we really need to do this?" The burly man gestured across his neck, indicating that they should all be silenced.

Now is the time to curry favor. I've long heard that Xu Bai is ruthless, and he just happened to take on this mission, so I have to do everything I can to make myself appear ruthless.

Unexpectedly, Xu Bai refused outright.

"No need, you can all go back. I can manage on my own," Xu Bai said.

The burly man was taken aback, not expecting Xu Bai to act so unpredictably. He didn't know what to say, so he could only clasp his hands in farewell and leave.

After those people left, Xu Bai squinted and looked at the group of people gathering not far away.

Ye Zi asked from the side, "Young Master, are you planning to follow them?"

Xu Bai nodded and said, "That's right. Since they want to escape, they must have a destination. We just need to follow them."

Ye Zi pursed her lips, stopped talking, and stood quietly to the side.

More and more people gathered in front of the mansion. When about ten people had gathered, a middle-aged man dressed in fine silk and satin walked out.

"Greetings, Patriarch!"

When the Tong Family Head came out, the people around him greeted him in unison. Although their voices were soft, they could be heard clearly when they gathered together.

"Shut up, we're not doing anything aboveboard," the Tong Family Head said sternly. "Have you packed everything? If you have, then leave."

Everyone nodded repeatedly, not daring to say anything more.

Seeing that everyone was ready, the Tong Family Head waved his sleeves and walked ahead, with the others following behind. Under the cover of darkness, they slowly disappeared into the distance.

Xu Bai and Ye Zi exchanged a glance, then quietly followed behind with their Fourth-Rank Puppet.

It must be said that soul-based cultivation techniques are indeed very good. When tracking, they can help avoid exposing oneself as much as possible. This is like a person who can conduct reconnaissance; he will also be able to conduct counter-reconnaissance.

The two followed at a distance, all the way out of Wind Flower Prefecture, until they stopped in a desolate wilderness.

Ahead, the Tong Family Head stopped, turned around, and looked at the group of subordinates behind him.

His son was among his men.

Not everyone in the Tong Family wanted to assassinate Xu Bai; those who truly knew the inside story were just a few high-ranking members of the Tong Family.

After all, the Tong Family Head also knew that it was safer for a small number of people to know these things, and that even if most people knew, it wouldn't make much difference.

"Father, why don't we hurry up and leave?" Young Master Tong asked, puzzled, not understanding what his father was trying to do.

The other high-ranking members of the Tong Family had the same expression. They had planned to travel a long and arduous journey tonight, but they never expected to be stopped halfway there.

"Yes, this place is beautiful with clear waters and lush mountains, so it's a good burial spot for you," the Tong Family Head said calmly.

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned, but they quickly realized what was happening and their faces showed expressions of utter horror.

Without a word, everyone turned around and prepared to leave.

But the next moment, before they could even take two steps, they all clutched their chests and collapsed to the ground.

These people, including the son of the Tong Family Head, have already died.

"I went through so much trouble to get the poison, but I never expected it to end up in the hands of my own people. Alas, you can't blame your father, my child." The Tong Family Head sighed and said, "I have dealings with the governor of Wind Chime Prefecture and know their plans. Xu Bai's disappearance must mean he went to the Demon-Strange Entity Market. If he can even come out of the Demon-Strange Entity Market alive, we are definitely no match for him."

"A person who can escape from the Demon-Strange Entity Market is definitely not an ordinary person; their background is unimaginably powerful."

"Besides, the leader doesn't want us to live. He wants us all to die with him. Why would I willingly risk my life for such a leader?"

"I've thought about it. If I run with you all, the target will be too big. If I run alone, the target will be smaller."

"I'm sorry, but as long as I live, I can continue to carry on the Tong Family line."

As he spoke, the Tong Family Head spoke in a pitiful tone, but his face remained indifferent.

He took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and sprinkled it on the corpses in front of him. Moments later, the corpses and their clothes turned into blood and dissolved into the ground beneath his feet.

After finishing all this, the Tong Family Head put away the medicine and prepared to leave.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and said, "Make your move, but leave some alive."

He originally planned to follow behind to see where the other party's stronghold was, but he never expected that the Tong Family Head wanted to slip away.

In that case, there's no need to follow them anymore. It's better to take one alive and find out what happened next.

Ye Zi stretched out her hand, and the white light was brushed over by her, producing a melodious tune.

As the music played, Xu Bai's body became lighter, and the speed at which his internal True Yuan Power circulated was greatly enhanced.

The next moment, Xu Bai drew the Black Saber Hundred Rends from his waist, and countless fragments exploded in his hand, transforming into a force that swept towards the Tong Family Head.

Originally, the Tong Family Head was planning to leave, but after hearing the whooshing sound behind him, he hurriedly turned around and his pupils suddenly contracted.

It must be said that the families in Wind Flower Prefecture are much larger than those in the prefectures, and these family heads have all crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Upon seeing this, he was flustered, but in the face of life and death, he hurriedly swung his right hand.

A copper coin flew out of the Tong Family Head's hand, suddenly growing larger, and in the blink of an eye, it had become the size of a millstone.

The fragments struck the copper coin, creating deep dents that could only be stopped by a fraction of an inch before being pierced through in an instant.

The copper coin, once pierced, shattered into countless fragments, only to reveal an empty space behind it the next moment.

"Where is he?" Xu Bai frowned. "He ran away?"

"Young Master, it's the Living Dead Path." Ye Zi walked to Xu Bai's side and said, "This is a characteristic of the Yin Escort's profession, specifically it is like this..."

In the dark wilderness, Ye Zi described the various characteristics of this profession one by one.

Within the profession of bodyguards, there is a branch known as the "Shadow Escort."

Not counting Xu Bai's Fulong Escort Agency, those escorts weren't even ranked, not even considered a major profession.

The so-called "yin darts" are used to transport things that ordinary people don't use. These things are strange and unusual, come in many categories, and are associated with the bizarre.

Since they were transporting things that ordinary people didn't use, they naturally didn't take the usual routes.

The living have a way to live, the dead walk the path of death, and the Yin Dart walks the Living Dead Path.

The Living Dead Path lies between life and death. Ordinary people cannot see it, nor can those outside this profession. Once one enters it, one will disappear without a trace.

Even worse, neither the living nor the dead can see them.

But the Living Dead Path also has its dangers.

They linger between life and death. If this continues for a long time, they will completely lose consciousness and become a living dead. Therefore, they will rest after walking a certain distance and cannot walk in there for a long time.

"Damn it, I didn't expect this guy to run away so decisively. I thought I was going to have a good fight with him." Xu Bai stroked his chin and said.

"Young Master, he can't possibly stay in the Living Dead Path for long, but we don't know which way he escaped. If we did, we could follow him from a distance until he comes out," Ye Zi suggested.

Xu Bai's eyes lit up.

Yes, since the other party can't walk for long, he can just follow from a distance and grab them as soon as they come out.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai sheathed the Black Saber Hundred Rends at his waist, and then he made a movement.

Xu Bai raised his right hand, his index finger pointing in mid-air. Immediately afterward, a faint golden light emerged from his index finger, and a golden compass appeared in mid-air.

Human Calculation Scripture.

This skill is in Kong Xu's hands, but Kong Xu has only cultivated it to the fifth rank, so he needs to use tools. Xu Bai, on the other hand, has now reached the second rank and does not need to use those tools at all.

Once the compass formed by golden light appeared, the pointer began to spin rapidly, and within moments it came to rest at a certain position.

"Found it," Xu Bai said with a smile.

Behind them, the Fourth-Rank Puppet moved and took the lead.

Xu Bai and Ye Zi followed behind, chasing in one direction.

There wasn't a single person or even a trace along the way, but Xu Bai and his group walked in this direction for about three incense sticks' worth of time before something unusual finally appeared.

Not far ahead, the air twisted and turned, Tong Family Head inexplicably appeared on the spot, wiping the sweat from his brow.

"We finally escaped."

People outside cannot see the Living Dead Path, and those within the Living Dead Path cannot see the outside world, so he was unaware that Xu Bai had been chasing him.

Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he felt a chill run down his spine, as if some kind of danger had already set its sights on him.

The Tong Family Head's face stiffened, and he silently turned his head away, only to see the person he least wanted to see.

Not far away, Xu Bai, carrying the Black Saber Hundred Rends, was leisurely chasing after them.

"Run, keep running, if you dare, keep going into your Living Dead Path."

His tone carried a hint of mockery, but beyond that, there was a terrifying murderous intent.

The Tong Family Head was completely stunned. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his shoulders trembled slightly, clearly showing extreme fear.

"Not only can you get out of the Demon-Strange Entity Market, you can even track down people who have escaped into the Living Dead Path!"

The fear in his words was so palpable that even a dog could hear it.

"Oh, so you know about my past. Tsk tsk tsk, don't you think you know a little too much?" Xu Bai said slowly.

As if he had just realized something, the Tong Family Head suddenly knelt down and shouted, "Lord Xu, I never wanted to oppose you. I was only trying to escape this time, so I did nothing to wrong you. Please spare my life. I am willing to surrender."

Xu Bai stopped and laughed, "Very good, I like people like you who are more sensible. Now tell me everything you know. Where is your hideout? And what exactly is the leader?"

The Tong Family Head quickly said, "I am the only one in Wind Flower Prefecture, so I am considered an inside man. The leader is very cunning and never tells me his location."

"I will only be contacted by someone when the leader needs me; otherwise, I have to stay here."

"As for what the leader is, I know!"

Xu Bai raised an eyebrow and said, "Then tell me, including the place where he asked you to leave a message."

The Tong Family Head didn't speak, just stared at Xu Bai, as if he was struggling with something.

Xu Bai knew exactly what the other person was thinking, and slowly asked, "Have you had your pain receptors removed? Or is your soul very strong?"

The Tong Family Head was taken aback and subconsciously replied, "No."

Xu Bai's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "Since you have none of those, I can use torture to extract a confession or interrogate your soul. What right do you have to negotiate?"

The other party hesitated just now because they were afraid of being killed after speaking out, so they wanted to talk, but were they qualified to talk? Upon hearing this, the Tong Family Head's face turned deathly pale, and he sat down on the ground with a thud. He knew that he had to speak today, whether he wanted to or not.

"You really can let me go?"

"Of course. Since you want to assassinate me, you must know that I'm a man of integrity in business. Aren't we discussing a business deal right now?" Xu Bai said with a smile.

The Tong Family Head had a gloomy look in his eyes, but he finally spoke.

"The leader's profession is gravedigger, which no one knew before, but my family happens to have a book about it."

"I only found out after I went back and looked it up. The book also mentioned that there was a huge tomb in Wind Flower Prefecture, and it was unclear who was inside."

"But if the leader is a gravedigger, he must be related to this grave."

"The book also mentioned that opening the tomb would require a large number of burial goods, and he gathered us together to prevent us from acting alone. I suspect he wanted us to be buried with him."

"If you want to deal with the leader, a large tomb will definitely appear soon. The appearance of the tomb will definitely cause an anomaly, and you will be able to find the location based on it."

At this point, the Tong Family Head fell silent.

Clearly, everything that needed to be said has been said.

Xu Bai stroked his chin.

Gravedigger.

It's another new profession.

"Young master, gravediggers are also not tolerated," Ye Zi said.

Xu Bai could guess without needing to say it; it was definitely something that wouldn't be tolerated.

"Everyone has a grave, and these people have dug them up. Who can stand it?" "Lord Xu, I've already told you. Can we leave now? Lord Xu, don't worry, I will definitely not do anything to you again," the Tong Family Head said timidly.

Xu Bai nodded, then suddenly extended his index finger and flicked the Black Saber Hundred Rends.

A melody began to play.

With a calculated attack on the unsuspecting, the Tong Family Head's eyes immediately went blank, and he was instantly subdued.

"Is what you just said true? Is there anything else you haven't told me?" Xu Bai asked.

The Tong Family Head shook his head blankly.

The next moment, Xu Bai swung his Black Saber Hundred Rends, and the fragments suddenly flew up, piercing through the Tong Family Head in front of him.

He is indeed honest in business, but only with people, not with a dog.

"Young Master, what are your plans for the future?" Ye Zi asked.

"Let's go back first." Xu Bai searched the corpse in front of him but found nothing useful. He had already used up all the materials he had used to destroy the evidence.

I received a lot of information today, so I'll go back and digest it first, and then think about what to do next.

With that thought in mind, Xu Bai didn't linger any longer and headed towards the inn with Ye Zi.

Taking advantage of the darkness, they returned to the inn in no time.

Ye Zi closed the door behind her, and seeing that Xu Bai Xu Bai had already taken his seat, she poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him.

Xu Bai said, "For now, we should wait and see. If it is really as he said, the other party will definitely not cause any more trouble. There will definitely be some changes when the tomb is opened. We should go and see what happens when the tomb is opened."

"If that's the case, we need to find someone skilled in grave robbing," Ye Zi said. "Feng Shui Master and grave robbers are quite similar. We can ask the Jiang Family if they have any Feng Shui Master in Wind Flower Prefecture."

Since it's related to a large tomb, Feng Shui Master is definitely needed.

The Jiang Family has been rooted here for many years and must have extensive connections, so it is only natural for them to come and help.

"Tomorrow, we'll go to the Jiang Family again," Xu Bai said.

He took out the Heavy Sword Method and continued working on it. Things were getting complicated, and the most important thing was to seize the time to improve himself.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, the dark night was over, and the bright sun of the next day appeared.

The streets became bustling with people, and vendors on both sides began to hawk their wares.

As soon as Xu Bai and Ye Zi arrived at the Jiang Family, they were led to the reception room by the servants.

"Hahaha, Lord Xu's visit again must be for important business. What are you all still doing here? Why don't you serve Lord Xu some tea?" the Jiang Family Head laughed loudly.

His voice was as bold and unrestrained as ever; at first glance, one might mistake him for a straightforward and honest person.

The servants quickly brought out the best tea leaves. Xu Bai took the cup, looked at the steaming tea, and took a small sip.

"Lord Xu, just say the word if you need anything. Don't worry, I'll say it again: I will never hesitate to help in any way I can." The Jiang Family Head said righteously, patting his chest repeatedly to assure him.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, put down the tea in his hand, and said, "Putting everything else aside, I really have something to ask Jiang Family Head for help with this time. I wonder if there is anyone in Wind Flower Prefecture who is Feng Shui Master?"

The Jiang Family Head was about to agree generously, but he didn't expect the question to be asked by Feng Shui Master. He was stunned on the spot, and after a while, he showed a wry smile.

"Lord Xu... were you referring to Feng Shui Master?"

"That's right. Doesn't Wind Flower Prefecture have any Feng Shui Master?" Xu Bai asked, frowning.

In such a large state, it's impossible that there isn't a profession of Feng Shui Master; he felt something was amiss.

"Sigh..." Jiang Family Head sighed and said, "If it were any other matter, I, Jiang, could definitely handle it for Lord Xu, but this matter is indeed a bit difficult!"

"Oh?" Xu Bai asked, "What difficulties are there? Jiang Family Head, just tell me directly. I'm not one to make trouble unnecessarily. Let's all be understanding."

You could tell from the other person's expression just now that something was definitely going on.

The Jiang Family Head sighed and said, "Lord Xu, if we're talking about Wind Flower Prefecture, there's only one Feng Shui Master, and that's the Qian Family in the west of the West of the City. But getting the Qian Family to help us will probably be extremely difficult."

"When the Great Chu Kingdom was established, the Qian Family did their best. At that time, the construction of the Capital City of the Great Chu Kingdom was also a collective effort of various Feng Shui Master."

"The Qian Family, because they forcibly changed the feng shui, defied fate and turned bad into good, suffered a backlash from their own feng shui, and never recovered."

"His Majesty was moved by their loyalty and allowed them to remain in Wind Flower Prefecture, where no one dared to touch them."

"They stopped using feng shui, because if they did, the whole family might die a violent death on the street."

Feng shui is a very mysterious thing, and when Xu Bai heard the Jiang Family Head say this, he felt that this matter was indeed a bit difficult to handle.

The Qian Family has truly found a powerful backer; in Wind Flower Prefecture, probably no one dares to touch them.

More importantly, they no longer use feng shui, after all, they suffered a backlash before. If they used it again, the whole family would die suddenly in the street. This kind of death is particularly mysterious and is entirely due to feng shui.

To put it simply, it's not that the other party doesn't want to help, but rather that they are unable to.

"Thank you for your trouble, Jiang Family Head. I still want to go and take a look." Xu Bai cupped his hands in greeting and prepared to leave with Ye Zi.

"Take care. If you need anything else, feel free to come find me anytime." The Jiang Family Head escorted Xu Bai Xu Bai to the door and told him the location of the Qian Family's residence.

Xu Bai didn't say much. Following the directions given by the Jiang Family Head, he led Ye Zi through a series of streets until they arrived at a mansion.

This mansion is completely different from other mansions; it has a plaque hanging on it, and the plaque is even inlaid with gold.

Moreover, the characters on the plaque are written in a vigorous and elegant style. In addition to the two characters "Qian Family", there is a line of smaller characters below that reads "A plaque bestowed by His Majesty".

There were two servants guarding the entrance, and they frowned when they saw Xu Bai walk in.

Who are you?

"Please inform them that Xu Bai wishes to meet with the Qian Family Head," Xu Bai said.

Given Xu Bai's current level of fame, even the servants knew his name. They were clearly surprised when they heard it. After a moment of realization, they said "wait here" and hurriedly ran into the courtyard.

A moment later, the servant rushed out again and said, "The master invites you in, Lord Xu."

Xu Bai nodded and, led by a servant, navigated through several paths before finally arriving at the reception room.

Fine tea had already been served in the room. Xu Bai sat in a chair, took a sip, and waited patiently.

A moment later, a middle-aged man walked in with an imposing air.

The middle-aged man had an ordinary appearance and was dressed in fine silk and satin.

Although he walked with an imposing and dignified posture, there was a dark aura swirling between his brows and eyes.

Defying fate brings backlash, leading to subsequent suffering that can even extend to an entire family.

Therefore, they dared not use the power of feng shui anymore, for the more they used it, the more their suffering would intensify.

That is why, after paying such a heavy price, the emperor bestowed such a generous reward.

In this Wind Flower Prefecture, even the prefectural magistrate wouldn't dare to act arrogantly in front of the Qian Family; this is their privilege.

"Lord Xu, what brings you here?" The Qian Family Head bowed to Xu Bai and asked very politely.

In fact, the Qian Family was also very clever. They did not use the emperor to dominate the area, but instead kept a very low profile.

Before speaking, the black aura between the Qian Family Head's brows twitched a few more times, appearing even more intense.

Xu Bai slightly turned the teacup with his fingers, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Since that's the case, then I won't play those games anymore. I'll just say it directly: I've come here to borrow a Feng Shui Master."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Qian Family Head froze. After realizing what was happening, he stood up from his chair, his hands clenched tightly.

"If that's the case, Lord Xu, please return!"
