This Overlord Doesn’t Care About Anything

Chapter 817: 25. Premonition of the storm

Lid's fingers tapped quickly on the wooden railing.

After Bai Huang came back, he met the Lord of Yunhai and the second son of Yunhai Baifeng successively. Although the news has not been fully spread, it is not difficult for interested people to find out about it. Especially the conflict with Bai Qiu at that time was witnessed by many businessmen, but later Bai Huang stayed in the lord's mansion for a night, and was trapped by Bai Feng in the army. It remained calm for the time being.

There are many people in the city that never sleeps, and there are not a few people staring at Baihuang. Not long after the group returned to the city that never sleeps, someone sent a letter, pointing the clue to the east of the Jiangcheng Inn. After arriving here, he bumped into Yunhaiwei's son Suyu molesting the girl, all this seems too coincidental no matter how you think about it.

In fact, when he first came to the city that never sleeps, Li De was a little skeptical.

The relationship between Bai Qiu and Bai Huang is not very good, so when Bai Huang returns to the city, he will naturally not be notified. Could it be that Bai Qiu can still block the gate of Nightless City every day to check on people? He didn't have the courage and the power to create large-scale traffic jams for several days in a row. It's no wonder the Lord of the Sea of Clouds didn't break his legs.

In other words, someone revealed to him the approximate date of Bai Huang's arrival in the city that never sleeps.

Just now, some people wanted Baihuang to come to the east of Jiangcheng Inn, so they were lured here by letter.

But the problem is that now Lide can't guess what the other party wants, so it is difficult to deduce the other party's identity.

If the opponent's target is himself or Alaiya, then it is probably Yunyang's enemy, or they want to take the opportunity to provoke a conflict between Yunyang and Yunhai. If the target of the other party is Bai Huang, then it may be someone who has had a feud with Bai Huang, or someone who intends to use Bai Huang to make a fortune in the battle between the sons.

So if there were a bunch of assassins arranged in the inn, or someone was sitting in the inn waiting to negotiate, Lid would understand.

The problem is that there is nothing here, there is no shadow of the assassin, and no one has come to contact Li De or Bai Huang. Lide could feel the sight from the dark, and could feel the feeling of being stared at, but the other party did nothing at this stage, which made Lide feel a little baffled.

The only clues so far are the few people present.

The girl playing the piano, Yun Haiwei's elder brother Su Yu, and the captain of the inspection team who knelt on the ground and dared not get up.

Lid's eyes swept over them, and his expression looked as calm as before. In Wangdu, in Lingwu, and in Southern Chu, he had broken through many situations. Although he had no clue at the moment, the opponent did not pose any effective threat.

Bai Huang kicked the inspector captain's ass and said:

"Go to Baizheng and report what you did today! My aunt won't believe it. When did the law and order in my sea of clouds get so bad? Ask Baizheng to come and give me an explanation within three days!"

The inspection captain lowered his head and said yes repeatedly, but there was a hint of sternness in his eyes. He knew very well that going to Baizheng would be a dead end, and the only way to survive was to escape from the city that never sleeps, or even escape from the sea of clouds. For the rest of his life, he will definitely live incognito, and at the same time retaliate against Bai Huang at all costs.

Bai Huang didn't see his expression, she was turning her head to lecture Su Yu:

"Do you like to fight your father? Yes, let your father report to my father."

Su Yu clenched her fists tightly, but looked into Bai Huang's eyes and nodded in agreement.

When the patrol captain and Su Yu exited the inn, Li De gave Alaya a wink.

Alaiya, who knew her young master very well, knew what she should do, and followed without showing any signs of showing. Bai Huang evacuated the clapping crowd in the hall, and said to the pink-haired girl in the cloak:

"It's all right. Don't worry, in Yunhai, no one dares to make trouble in front of my aunt."

After finishing speaking, Bai Huang turned around, waved his hand and prepared to leave. This wave seems to hide merit and fame, but in fact, Baihuang really doesn't have the mood to communicate with the girl in depth. Instead, the girl gently called Bai Huang's name, then said with a smile:

"That... thank you. Wait a minute, I'll treat you to milk and bread, it's delicious."

The girl bounced and ran to the counter, put a token on the table, raised her index finger and said:

"I want a sweet bun with bean paste filling, and a glass of milk."

When Bai Huang saw the token, he froze for a moment, and asked suspiciously:

"Yunhai Order? Why do you have this?"

The girl said puzzledly:

"Someone gave it to me not long ago. They said I was cute and asked me what I wanted. Can I say anything? They said yes, and I said I wanted a lot of bread and milk! They just gave me this and told me that if I show this to the merchant, I can get unlimited bread and milk."

Bai Huang took the token from the girl's hand, and found that it was indeed somewhat different from the Order of the Sea of Clouds he knew.

There is no sign of Yunhai on this piece, and there is no complicated mechanism, which means that this token cannot mobilize Yunhai's army, nor can it issue orders to Yunhaiwei. But at the very bottom of this token is the seal of the Lord of the Sea of Clouds, with a piece of bread printed on the front, a cup of milk printed on the back, and a line of small characters on the side:

"Give this token to Irene, the new Oiran of the Sea of Clouds, and whoever sees the token will provide the best bread and milk in the store for free."

The girl took off her hood.

A head of pink wavy long hair jumped out all of a sudden, like a cherry blossom that bloomed overnight. She raised her head, with a silly smile on her cute face, and there was a red flower in the middle of her forehead. Judging from her age, she is only about fourteen or fifteen years old. She is not tall, and her cheeks are chubby, which obviously haven't bloomed yet, but it gives off a fragrant and soft feeling. The girl stood on tiptoe, handed the bread in her hand to Bai Huang, and said happily:

"My name is Irene, and I'm a...um...traveler! This is for you, thank you for helping me out just now."

Bai Huang took the bread from her hand, and was shocked by the girl's cute appearance for a while, stuttering:

"Ah, oh, my name is Bai Huang. Well, have you been staying in the inn all the time? Have you seen my brother? A man who is about this tall and always has a straight face. He looks a bit aloof."

Irene thought for a long time, then shook her head apologetically, Bai Huang felt a little lost.

The next moment, Baihuang noticed that Lide was standing beside him, staring at Irene without saying a word.

Irene also noticed that there was another person beside Bai Huang, so she tilted her head and asked with a smile:

"Hello, are you a friend of sister Baihuang?"

Lid nodded, and Irene picked up the milk on the counter with both hands and sent it to Lid, smiling sweetly:

"Then I'll treat my brother to drink milk."

Lid took the milk, and his fingers touched the back of Irene's hand. When Irene pulled her hand, Lid's fingertips touched Irene's nails again. He calmly poured a breath into Irene's body, confirming that she really doesn't have any martial arts skills. But for some reason, this breath in Irene's body did not move according to the path he expected. It seemed that Irene's body was slightly different from the structure of ordinary people.

She should have nothing to do with the sender.

Lide took two sips of milk, put it on the counter, and said to Bai Huang:

"I'm going out to do some errands. You and Heji should stay here first, and we will probably stay here for one night tonight. The news that this child is the oiran of the sea of clouds must have spread, otherwise Mr. Yu would be unreasonable." If you don’t even see it, prepare for the Overlord to fight hard, and there may be a lot of trouble later, but you should be much better here.”

Bai Huang cheered up and said with a smile:

"Don't worry. My aunt has nothing else to do. It's fine to take care of a beautiful girl."

Lide stretched his wrist, and stepped out of the inn door calmly.
