"Anyway, this is a good thing, isn't it? Many people who work hard all their lives may not be valued by the royal family." Bai Yu said awkwardly.
Ye Xingchen was too lazy to pay attention to Bai Yu, stood up, and was about to leave.
"Hey, wait for me." Bai Yu said coquettishly.
If it were anyone else, seeing the dignified princess acting coquettishly, she would faint with happiness, but Bai Yu met Ye Xingchen, who was a different kind.
After exploring the bandits' lair, they found that in addition to a pile of gold and silver treasures, there was also a pile of food that could last for several years.
The strange thing is, why did a group of bandits hoard so much food? Are you afraid of famine
"The rumors are true." Bai Yu nodded and said.
"What rumors?" Ye Xingchen asked curiously.
"There are rumors that my third uncle is going to rebel. He secretly colludes with these bandits to hoard money and food to recruit troops." Bai Yu said.
"Now that you have found these things, what are you going to do with them?" Ye Xingchen said.
"Call someone to come and confiscate it," Bai Yu said.
Hearing this, Ye Xingchen nodded. Anyway, he had nothing to do. He still had an important task to do next.
That is to kill the giant Mo Luo ape.
Ye Xingchen was a little overwhelmed at the thought of killing level six monsters alone.
Although there is a shadow to protect him, Ye Xingchen doesn't want to use the shadow's power all the time, which will make him dependent.
Once this dependence is formed, it will be difficult for Ye Xingchen to grow up quickly.
"Hey, where are you going?"
When Bai Yu saw Ye Xingchen leaving, he quickly chased after him and held Ye Xingchen's hand.
Ye Xingchen was startled and a little surprised. This was the first time that a girl took the initiative to hold his hand.
"Auntie, what else do you want to do?" Ye Xingchen glanced at Bai Yu and asked.
"Follow me to Fengdu City." Bai Yu said with a playful expression.
"No." Ye Xingchen decisively refused.
"If you don't go, I will announce to the whole world that you slept with me." Bai Yu said with a red face.
"You, you" Ye Xingchen looked at Bai Yu with wide eyes, why did he feel like he had met his nemesis.
If Bai Yu really announced this, then wouldn't he and Lin Xueer be in trouble
A chaste and fierce woman like Lin Xueer would definitely not allow her fiancé to betray her.
Ye Xingchen has feelings for Lin Xueer, so he doesn't want to be misunderstood by Lin Xueer.
"How about it, promise or not." Bai Yu said playfully.
"You are cruel." Ye Xingchen nodded helplessly and said.
Immediately, the two left the bandits' den and rushed towards Fengdu City.
On the way, Bai Yu pestered Ye Xingchen and asked many questions, but Ye Xingchen made up his mind to ignore this girl.
In the end, Bai Yu had no choice but to shut his mouth.
Fengdu City, the city lord's mansion.
"Is there no whereabouts of the princess yet? You bunch of losers, look for her. Find her quickly."
The city lord Shao Bai overturned the table with an angry look on his face and said angrily.
Several figures lowered their heads, then flashed and disappeared.
"City Lord Shaobai, why are you so angry?"
Immediately, two middle-aged men came over, one of whom was Ye Xingchen's old enemy.
If Ye Xingchen were here, he would definitely know these two people. One was Qiu Bai, the master of the Zhenbao Pavilion in Fengdu City, and the other was Shi Hao, the chief alchemist of the Zhenbao Pavilion.
"If the princess dies here, it will definitely affect the prince's plans." Shaobai said with a troubled look.
"It's just a princess. If you die, you will die. If one or two of the emperor's princesses die, what's the matter?" Qiu Bai said with a smile.
"Well, I can only hope that those three idiots can handle the matter." Shaobai said, rubbing his head.
"City Lord Shaobai, this is the elixir you entrusted me to refine for you last time."
After speaking, Shi Hao took out a jade bottle and handed it to Shaobai.
Immediately, Shao Bai's eyes lit up, he quickly took the bottle and said with a smile: "As expected of the chief alchemist of Zhenbao Pavilion, this speed is unparalleled."
"Where is Shaobai? Shaobai is here."
Suddenly, a sweet and domineering voice came from outside the hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
As soon as Shaobai heard this voice, he quickly put away the jade bottle and looked at the menacing visitor with a cautious expression.
I saw Bai Yu and Ye Xingchen walking towards them, Bai Yu's princess airs clearly showing.
"Well, Young Master Bai, I went to kill the bandits and you didn't send anyone to help me. I almost died there." Bai Yu said angrily.
"Princess, forgive me, I have sent people there, but no trace of the princess was found," Shaobai quickly knelt down on one knee and said.
Bai Yu sat in the city lord's seat and glanced at Qiu Bai and Shi Hao displeasedly.
"Why don't you two kneel down when you see this princess?" Bai Yu said angrily.
"We, who do not belong to the Emperor's Kingdom, naturally do not need to kneel." Qiu Bai said calmly.
Shi Hao's eyes were fixed on Ye Xingchen, as if his eyes could tear Ye Xingchen into pieces.
"Hey, isn't this Shi Hao, alchemist? It's been a long time since we last met." Ye Xingchen sneered.
Recalling that Shi Hao was defeated by him again and again, Ye Xingchen felt a little happy.
To deal with such villains, they should be completely suppressed with the power of thunder.
Since Shi Hao came back from that competition, he has become even more gloomy, and most people don't dare to get close to him.
Only Qiu Bai dared to talk to Shi Hao. At least Shi Hao would respect Qiu Bai a little because of his identity.
"Ye Xingchen, if you step into Fengdu City today, don't even think about leaving." Shi Hao said coldly.
"What, you want to kill my princess's friend? Do you want to die?" Bai Yu got up angrily and smashed the tables and chairs beside him.
Ye Xingchen looked at Shi Hao with great interest. He knew that Shi Hao was a man who was bound to take revenge. When they met this time, one of them would definitely die.
"Princess, I want to have a life-and-death showdown with him. If I win, he will die, and if he wins, I will die." Shi Hao said bluntly.
"You're so presumptuous!" Bai Yu glared at Shi Hao again, almost not taking action directly.
"Ahem, Ye Xingchen, are you afraid?" Qiu Bai sneered.
From the beginning to the end, Qiu Bai and the others did not take the princess Bai Yu seriously, let alone the princess. Even if he was the emperor of the Kingdom of Heaven, Qiu Bai still didn't take him seriously.
After all, Zhenbao Pavilion's business is spread across the entire continent, and the Emperor of Heaven does not dare to break up with Zhenbao Pavilion.
"Afraid? I'm afraid that if you, the chief alchemist, dies, you will feel distressed." Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"Wait a minute, do you know each other?" Shaobai said confused.
Shaobai was in charge of Fengdu City, but rarely paid attention to things outside Fengdu City. Naturally, he didn't understand Ye Xingchen's deeds.
In Shao Bai's eyes, Ye Xingchen was just a young boy. How could he be regarded as a thorn in Shi Hao's side
"There was a competition over elixirs." Ye Xingchen said lightly.
Bai Yu also heard about Ye Xingchen's deeds in the medicine refining competition.
At that time, Bai Yu couldn't believe it. It was simply unheard of for a sixteen-year-old boy to win the championship.
