Central Plains, Yaowang Valley.
Bai Jinyi sat in the study and dealt with things in the valley.
As the young master of the valley, he cannot always be a hands-off shopkeeper and let the elders do everything.
Tuk-tuk-tuk.
After three knocks on the door, the person outside opened the door and came in directly.
A Shadow Guard quickly walked up to Bai Jinyi and said, "Report to the Young Master of the Valley, news has just come from the northwest region. Miss Ye has returned and is currently on her way. The Shadow is expected to arrive at Yaowang Valley within seven days."
Bai Jinyi raised his head, with little emotion in his eyes. He thought about it and said, "Send someone to guard the entrance of the wormhole in the valley. Once the shadow comes back, tell him to come over to see me immediately. Go down."
"Yes!" The Shadow Guard left, and when he was leaving, a maid in white came in.
"For the record, Master Shaogu, the elders are waiting for you in the conference room. Please come over as soon as you finish handling the matters at hand." After the maid finished speaking, she stood aside respectfully with a lantern in hand.
Bai Jinyi frowned slightly, why did he call him over so late
He quickly glanced at the folder in his hand, wrote a few words on it and put it aside.
meeting room.
More than a dozen elders sat down in order, with different expressions. No one said anything, they were all waiting for Bai Jinyi's arrival.
Bai Jinyi came to the door of the conference room, waved his hand for the maid to leave, looked at the closed stone door, and just when he wanted to speak out, a voice came from inside.
"Come in." The great elder's voice sounded.
Bai Jinyi pushed the door open and entered, bowing lightly to the people in the room: "I've met the eldest elder, I've met my second uncle, I've met all the elders."
After saluting, Bai Jinyi sat down on a chair near the door.
"Jinyi, Miss Ye, are you coming to Yaowang Valley soon?" The elder made a face and his voice was a little low.
Bai Jinyi's heart tightened, his face remained calm, and he said respectfully: "Yes."
"Hmm..." The great elder nodded and said seriously: "Jinyi, now that you have inherited the evil-eyed white tiger, we shouldn't interfere with the marriage, but you are the young master of Yaowang Valley, so marriage should not be taken too seriously. It’s up to you, we don’t know much about Miss Ye, so we still have to wait and see about her character and abilities.”
Bai Jinyi sat there with his eyes lowered. It was expected by Bai Jinyi that the elders intended to "investigate" Ye Yuxi.
At this time, Bai Jinyi was not too surprised when the great elder brought it up. He replied in a deep voice: "Jinyi understands."
"Jinyi, we are also doing this for your own good. Well... when Miss Ye comes, let's arrange for her to live in the outer city first." Bai Jinyi's second uncle Bai Zhixuan said directly.
Um? !
Bai Jinyi's eyes instantly filled with anger.
Outer city? Even guests from Medicine King Valley will be accommodated in the inner city. To put it bluntly, the outer city is just a place where ordinary family members of Medicine King Valley disciples live.
The elders actually want to arrange Ye Yuxi in the outer city? !
"Second uncle, isn't this right?" Bai Jinyi suddenly raised his head and looked at the elders with slightly angry eyes.
Bai Zhixuan snorted softly: "What's wrong? Jinyi, you are the Young Valley Master and the only person in our Medicine King Valley who has inherited the evil-eyed white tiger. The elders and I must carefully consider your marriage."
"I can obtain the inheritance of the evil-eyed white tiger because of Ye Yuxi's contribution. Elders, Ye..."
"Hmph~! You brought the inheritance back. Of course you have the final say as to who is responsible. Even if you give the credit to that Ye Yuxi, we don't know." Bai Zhixuan hummed.
