Chapter 1590 - 365: Duozhi Fox and Mountain Descending Tiger (Part 4)

Liu Caidie turned her head and saw Du Zundao.

"Greetings, Uncle Du."

Liu Caidie very politely gave a bow. Du Zundao glanced at her and said, "Oh, Caidie is back."

Liu Caidie said, "Yes, just returned, Uncle Du."

Du Zundao opened his mouth and said, "Well, good. It’s dangerous outside now. The Six Great Sects and the court are both competing with our Zoroastrian Sect, so important people like you shouldn’t linger outside anymore. It’s good to be back."

"At least our elders are here."

"Yes."

Liu Caidie responded affirmatively, she then turned to Mr. Guan and said, "Old Guan, come with me."

Mr. Guan looked at Du Zundao and immediately followed with, "Someone, please prepare a room for Caidie."

Upon hearing this, Du Xiong said, "Uncle Guan, let me take care of this. I’ll take Caidie to rest."

Listening to this, Mr. Guan looked at Du Xiong and responded, "Alright then."

But on the side, Du Zundao’s face turned grim as he looked at his son, his expression somewhat unpleasant, thinking this was useless.

As everyone was in a standoff, suddenly a scream was heard: "Ah, Caidie!"

Upon hearing this voice, everyone immediately turned their heads, followed by seeing a quirky little girl whose eyes were excitedly directed towards Caidie.

Chen Jie recognized her, she was the Zoroastrian Sect’s Saintess Han Ling’er who had helped him in the past.

Han Ling’er exclaimed, "Caidie, you’re back."

"Ling’er, ah, long time no see!"

The two lively girls naturally hugged each other enthusiastically upon meeting, their faces full of smiles.

"Hahaha..."

Hand in hand, they started spinning in circles, which was frankly rather childish.

"Caidie, why didn’t you come to see me first when you came back?"

Liu Caidie said, "Oh, I just ran into Uncle Guan as soon as I returned. Uncle Guan was about to find me a place to stay."

"Why bother looking? Just stay next to me."

Han Ling’er decisively said, and Liu Caidie replied, "Alright, I’ll stay with Caidie here."

Han Ling’er turned her head to Mr. Guan and Du Zundao, "Do you two uncles still have business with Caidie?"

The two shook their heads, "No business."

"Then I’ll leave with Caidie first, come on, Caidie."

Han Ling’er pulled Caidie away, and at that moment Du Xiong said, "I’ll accompany you, Caidie."

Han Ling’er heard and said, "I can take care of it. Do I need you? You go back."

"I..."

Du Xiong looked at Han Ling’er, wanting to say something, but he was interrupted by Du Zundao’s call, "Ah Xiong, go back."

Du Xiong looked up at his father. He wanted to argue but couldn’t say a word, and could only show a face full of sorrow, finally looking at Liu Caidie reluctantly, "Then, Caidie, I’ll visit you when I have time."

Seeing Du Xiong like this, Du Zundao’s face had already turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. He couldn’t stand his son being so ingratiating like this and wanted to slap this useless thing to death.

But the useless thing wouldn’t listen, and he could only give Du Xiong a stern glare, then turned to Mr. Guan, "Old Guan, let’s discuss business first."

Mr. Guan nodded and left with Du Zundao. Du Xiong gave Liu Caidie a reluctant look, then followed Du Zundao away, knowing that he would surely be scolded by his father this time.

And so, the group arrived at the Small Gathering Hall, where Du Zundao dismissed everyone, ordered the doors and windows shut, and forbade anyone from eavesdropping.

Mr. Guan saw him making such a big fuss and frowned, "Old Du, what’s so secretive?"

Du Zundao sat down, picked up the teacup, and took a sip, "The Ruins have stirred, it’s possible to enter the Ruins now!"
