Naturally, Huo Tianyuan would not admit it.
“I’m not from the Heavenly Fire Sect. It just so happens that my surname is also Huo. I think he might have a grudge against the Heavenly Fire Sect, so he hates people with the surname Huo. 1 remember that he came to my house that night for some kind of treasure.”
Feng Mo’s eyes narrowed!
“This person is so vicious!”
He clenched his fists.
“It’s just that…
“Brother Huo, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but it’s really not easy. He’s the chosen one, and his situation is quite special. If we attack him, everyone on the continent will be dissatisfied.”
Feng Mo said.
Although he was a little cynical, he was quite reasonable.
“I understand! Young Master Feng, you don’t have to worry about me. I’ll take revenge on my own.”
Huo Tianyuan said.
In fact, his goal was to get Feng Mo to help him, but since he said so, Huo Tianyuan could only take a step back!
As expected…
Feng Mo was unhappy upon seeing Huo Tianyuan retreating!
“Brother Huo, you’re so good and so sincere to me. I’m your brother, and I’m a man who’s willing to sacrifice my life. Although this matter isn’t easy to manage, it doesn’t mean that 1 won’t care about it.”
Then, Feng Mo said, “We just need to make sure that the others don’t know that it was our Heavenly Wind Sect that did it.”
Huo Tianyuan revealed a surprised expression.
“Young Master Feng, this matter has nothing to do with you.”
“Your matter is also my matter. I’ve been very happy during this time with
you, so it’s my turn to do something for you.”
Then, Feng Mo clapped his hands.
“Second Young Master.”
A few people came behind him.
“Do you see that person?”
They looked at Chu Bai.
“We see him.”
“We have a grudge against that person. Find an opportunity to get rid of him without exposing your ident.i.ties.”
They nodded and said, “Yes, understood.”
“Okay, go ahead.”
Then, they left.
“Brother Huo, leave this matter to them. I want to go to the Drunken Spring Pavilion again.”
Huo Tianyuan was extremely happy.
“Hahaha! Alright! I’ll bring you to the Drunken Spring Pavilion now!”
“Hahaha, good!”
On the other hand…
Chu Bai still did not know that he was being targeted.
He was stopped by some players who kept asking for autographs and photos.
Chu Bai managed to squeeze out from the crowd with great difficulty.
“I’ll bring Lil Xue’er and Little Demon to have a feast first.”
He took them to eat a big meal, and then Chu Bai walked out.
As soon as he came out, a few guards stood in front of Chu Bai.
“May 1 ask if you’re Bai Ye?”
“You are?”
“We’re from the city lord’s mansion. The city lord heard that you’re here and wishes to extend an invitation to you to go to the mansion.”
Chu Bai raised his eyebrows.
His current fame seemed to have spread quite well in the Kamikaze Empire.
After arriving at a city that he had never been to before, an NPC actually came to look for him personally.
He felt that it was not just as simple as wanting to get to know him. There was probably a mission involved.
“Alright.”
“Please.”
Soon, they brought Chu Bai to the city lord’s mansion.
“City Lord, Bai Ye is here.”
“Invite him in!”
Then, Chu Bai came to a small back garden.
An old man walked quickly toward Chu Bai.
“Hahaha! I’ve long heard of your name. You actually came to Wind Cloud City today. When I heard that, I couldn’t wait to get someone to bring you over. I wanted to see your true appearance, hahaha.”
The city lord smiled and patted Chu Bai’s shoulder.
“City Lord, you’re too polite.”
“Hahaha, sit!”
Chu Bai sat down in front of him.
The city lord personally poured a cup of tea for Chu Bai.
“Have a taste of the good tea I prepared.”
“I don’t know much about tea,” said Chu Bai.
“Hahaha, it’s fine. Drink.”
Chu Bai took a sip.
“Bai Ye, what brings you to Wind Cloud City?”
Chu Bai said, “I just happened to go to the 10,000 Swords Sect and came over to take a look. It’s nothing much.”
“That’s great. Young Master Bai Ye, you’re really a timely help. I was just worrying about it when I heard that you’ve arrived. I have a favor to ask of you.” As expected!
“Please speak, City Lord.”
“I wonder if you’ve heard of the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa?”
Chu Bai shook his head.
“It doesn’t matter if you haven’t heard of it before. This Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa is a rather special place. It was built by a group of people to train demonic beasts and sell them to some sects. The sects treat them as magical pets. However, not long ago, there was a change in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa. Some people bought magical pets from the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa that were very irritable.”
Chu Bai raised his eyebrows.
“We feel that something must have happened in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa. I’ve sent many people to the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa to communicate with them. However, they were all attacked by a group of violent demonic beasts before they even saw the people from the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa.
“For this reason, the families of those people who were bitten to death are in great pain. As the city lord, I should be in charge of this. However, I have no choice now. I want to ask some sects to help out, but… These kinds of things are not easy for those sects to manage. Moreover, I have no dealings with them, and I don’t have the face to invite them.”
Then, the city lord continued, “These days, the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa might have also known about the situation here and stopped selling magical pets to the outside world. However, we haven’t seen anyone from the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa. It’s as if the place has been completely sealed off. Bai Ye, you’re extremely capable. 1 wonder if you can go to the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa and find out what’s going on there. If possible, I hope you can talk to the villa master of the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa about this matter.”
“Wasn’t it like this before?”
The city lord shook his head. “Things used to be pretty good. They sold quite many magical pets in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa. Those young masters and daughters of big families could all have a magical pet by their side. Having a pet could attract attention and protect their safety at the same time. But recently, things have changed. 1 keep feeling that something has happened in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa. I don’t see anyone there. In the past, when other people bought magical pets, they would enter the Hundred Beasts Mountain Villa to choose them. There’d also be someone to lead them.”
Chu Bai nodded.
“Bai Ye, if you can help me with this, I’m willing to give you a Group Frost Scroll.”
