"Your father has important matters to discuss with Miss Ye and Mr. Bai. When it's time to avoid suspicion, you have to avoid suspicion, you know!" The third elder scolded him in a moderate tone.
"Yes..." Bud responded. Although his status in the family is not low, the other party is an elder after all, and Bud still knows the proper respect for elders and juniors.
"Well, one of the things they brought today seems to be recorded in the benefactor's book. That book is with you. Go to the treasure house and take a look. Don't make a mistake."
After the third elder finished his instructions, he turned his attention to Ye Yuxi and the other two: "Miss Ye, Mr. Bai, the master is waiting for you in the living room. Come in quickly, Bud, follow me."
After saying that, the third elder took Bud towards the archway of the backyard. As the two of them walked, the third elder put a hand on Bud's shoulder, as if he was whispering something.
‘Jinyi, something is wrong...’
Ye Yuxi took a look at the walking posture of the third elder and Bard. The two walked side by side, arms around each other. At first glance, they seemed to have a very close relationship, but as a killer, Ye Yuxi knew that that posture was the most convenient for the third elder. Control Bard's position!
Coupled with the inexplicable nervousness of the Qilong clan members just before entering the mansion, the combination of many factors instantly made Ye Yuxi feel wary.
‘Whether it’s right or not, we have to drink the tea in the living room. ’
Bai Jinyi replied in his heart that if they noticed something was wrong, the two of them could turn around and leave, but...if they really left, Long Xiaopang's treasures would be lost.
In this situation, even if the living room is filled with swords and fire, the two of them can only break through.
Ye Yuxi and Bai Jinyi looked at each other and slowly walked into the living room.
Surprisingly, there was no one in the living room.
"Master Qilong, since you invited us over, why don't you show up?" Bai Jinyi glanced around, and just as he was about to use his mental power to explore, a figure appeared at the door.
"The head of the family has some urgent matters that need to be dealt with. Let me come over to accompany you two first. I hope Miss Ye and Mr. Bai don't take offense." The second elder walked in with a smile. There were two followers behind him, but these two followers He didn't enter the house, but guarded the door.
Uh-huh! After the second elder came in, he waved a burst of spiritual power and formed a barrier to seal the doors and windows, so that... the sounds inside could not be transmitted out.
"Is Patriarch Qilong unable to leave because of something, or is he unable to help himself?" Ye Yuxi looked at the second elder with autumn eyes, a hint of wisdom reflected in her calm eyes.
"Haha, Miss Ye is really good at joking. The head of the family is indeed busy with something. Today, there are outsiders coming to visit in the valley. The head of the house is doing some social activities. Please sit down, please. Let's have a casual chat first." The second elder chuckled and ended the night with two words. Yu Xi's question was passed over, and the enthusiasm on his face showed his acting skills.
"Please." Ye Yuxi nodded gently towards the second elder, and both parties sat down.
The second elder wanted to pick up the tea bowl and take a sip, but when he stretched out his palm, he remembered that he had sealed the doors and windows with a barrier and did not ask his servants to come in to bring tea. He patted his palm on the tea table and sighed: "I heard that Mr. Bai and Miss Ye are willing to help at this Nanchang Conference, and we, the Qilong clan, are very grateful."
"We are all friends, and we should help each other." Bai Jinyi nodded lightly, without any nervousness on his face.
These two elders were only in the middle stage of Xuanling. They were like ants in front of Bai Jinyi.
The second elder nodded matter-of-factly and affirmed: "What Mr. Bai said is reasonable. We are all friends and we should help each other, but..."
