Wei Jiayi allowed Kai Kai to move around. The sun is setting down, the sky of the Mortal Domain is painted with blue and red mixing to the near darkness of the night and soon the whole manor will be covered in the dark.Servants hide from him and the guards stay away from his path. No one dares to approach Wei Jiayi due to the black hound, but they still opened the hanging lanterns on the second prince manor with bright spiritual crystals. The sooner he finds what he is looking for the sooner he will leave.
The hound continued to sniff from time to time then moved again, tracking. The Wei Prince knows that they are going around circles as it the second or third time he saw a stone open gate going to a female courtyard.
The entrance of the gate is surrounded with planted white roses, two guards standing at each side. Through the entrance, he can also see some servants who are frantically coming in and out of the main receiving room of the courtyard.
"Lou Ren." Wei Jiayi called then the man immediately appeared. He then went down from the black hound, handing the leash over to Lou Ren. "Take over tracking."
Walking down across the circle path to the courtyard, "Master! Please do not go there, Concubine Li is with curse madness." Lou Ren exclaimed when he says Wei Jiayi.
Wei Jiayi removed his mask to breath better and see better due to the darkness and he does not want to miss anything, then looked at Lou Ren, "Did you not hear me?" he asked, patience shortening, they are wasting too much time.
Lou Ren just nodded, "I did master. I am sorry. However, curse madness may affect anyone as well." he said. Who knows what "Merchant Lan" did to Li Huan.
Though he wants his new brother to be found, he still cautious. He is actually conflicted on who to follow now, but since he is not sure with the whole story, he cannot back up "Lan Gao".
"If your Brother Lan is involved, no need to worry, she will not enjoy killing me immediately." Wei Jiayi said, striding towards the courtyard.
"She?" Lou Ren might have mistaken so he controlled Kai Kai to do the task, noticing the gla.s.s like a barrier as well that is not helping with the darkness.
He grabbed a piece of white paper from his storage ring, then crumpled and uttered a short spellbinding chant to coat the paper.
The paper, after a moment, slowly started forming. Long hare ears appear first, next is a bright white cotton-tail tuft from the end of it. After the forming is complete the originally white paper turned into a small white rabbit.
"Tell them." Lou Ren said to the small rabbit, his p.a.w.n, and it hopped quickly to the direction of the other experts.
Lou Ren then proceeds with his task, he can just glance at Wei Jiayi who now pa.s.sed the guards stationed at the courtyard. "Why are you hiding brother? Do you owe something to my master?" he silently asked. His master will not act this way if it"s not a big deal.
Wei Jiayi is now standing outside the room watching some of the female servants frantically trying to help the woman inside. There is also the resident doctor of the manor basing the traditional all-white robes of doctors in the s.h.i.+zi Empire.
"Get out! All of you! Stay away! Monsters!" The woman shouted inside, voice hoa.r.s.e from too much emotion. Either from being scared or being angry.
