Kong Xu narrowed his eyes.
He recognized this man.
Xu Bai.
When Xu Bai was about to enter the capital to receive the reward, his portrait had already appeared in the hands of many people. After all, such a person naturally attracted the attention of many forces.
Kong Xu naturally paid attention. He looked at Xu Bai and thought,ââl didnât expect to meet him here.â
Elder Sun also saw Xu Bai. He quickly walked forward and said,ââSecond Young Master, itâs Bai. Donât have any gruwith him.â
Most of these big families had been cautious until now and would not have any problems with the details.
Kong Xu nodded and agreed, but he was thinking about something else.
Naturally, Xu Bai had also noticed the situation here. After all, it would be difficult to not be discovered by a dozen people gathered together.
However, this had nothing to do with him.
Xu Bai brought Ye Zi and prepared to leave after purchasing new supplies at the Yin Posthouse.
He still had to hurry up and arrive at Wind Chime Manor as soon as possible so that he could complete one thing earlier. Moreover, the progress bar of the divine soul had always been in his heart. Of course, he wanted to obtain it as soon as possible.
However, sometimes, the more he wanted to leave, the more he couldnât leave.
Kong Xu stood up, ignoring Elder Sunâs attempts to stop him. He walked to Xu
Bai and blocked his way.
Xu Bai stopped.
Before he could make a move, the puppet of the Fourth Stage next to him had already drawn the saber at its waist.
âGreetings, Lord Xu.âKong Xu showed no fear at all. He raised his fist and bowed slightly to Xu Bai.
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and sized up the man.
He thought that he was here to stir up trouble or assassinate him again. He did not expect this man to bow to him directly. This was something.
âKong Xu?â Xu Bai had never heard of this name before.
âYoung Master, they are from the Kong family.â Ye Zi played the role of a tool and explained to Xu Bai,ââThe Kong family is an official in the capital. Although they arenât strong, the Kong familyâs main official rank is equivalent to the prefectureâs order. Kong Xu is the second young master of the Kong family, and I remember that the Ye family seems to be giving him a member.â
âOh?â âYoung Master Kong, why are you blocking my way?â Xu Bai asked.â
Now that he knew the other partyâs identity, there was naturally a reason for the other party to block his way. Xu Bai did not immediately attack because he wanted to know why.
At this moment, Elder Sun and his men rushed over.
âLord Xu, my young master saw you, so he couldnât help but come over to say hello. He has no other intentions.âOld Sun hurriedly said, as if he was afraid of offending Xu Bai.
Except for those who wanted to assassinate him, all the other officials knew to be on good terms with Xu Bai as long as they knew some principles of officialdom.
Elder Sun was afraid that his second young master would be unreasonable and offend Xu Bai. If the Sun family was tripped up, it would not be good.
Xu Bai felt that it was novel.
He didnât expect his status to become like this. Even an official in the capital was so careful with him.
However, the officials in the capital were indeed smart. Even the people in these families were not all good-for-nothing.
After all, they couldnât ignore the education of their family members. If their family members were arrogant and despotic, they might get themselves burned.
That was the capital. There were not many things, but there were many officials.
âLord Xu, are we going to Wind Chime Manor this time?âKong Xu asked.
From the beginning to the end, he did not even look at Ye Zi. His gaze was fixed on Xu Bai.
Ye Zi was very beautiful. Even with a veil over her face, it could not hide her temperament.
However, Kong Xu knew very well that a person like Xu Bai who had a beauty by his side, Kong Xu would definitely not look at him carelessly, because if he looked carelessly, he would get into trouble.
âThatâs right,â Xu Bai nodded and said,
His itinerary had never been a secret. After all, those who wanted to assassinate him had probably known about it long ago.
There was no harm in saying it.
âI saw that Lord Xu was only riding a fast horse. How can a horse seat three people? Why donât Lord Xu sit in the carriage with me? I want to go to Wind Chime Manor too. âKong Xu invited.
Xu Bai shook his head and said,ââlâm used to being alone, so I donât really want to sit in your carriage. If itâs really because of this, Young Master Kong might be disappointed.â
There was no need for him to take the carriage. In Kong Xuâs eyes, the puppet of the Fourth Stage was a true person. However, it was actually just a puppet.
He and Ye Zi rode a horse, which was much faster than a carriage.
Seeing this, Kong Xu did not say anything. Instead, he looked at a subordinate beside him and said,ââBring Lord Xu a fast horse.â
The subordinate was slightly stunned, but he quickly brought a horse over.
âLord Xu, if you donât want to go with me, this horse is my gift to Lord Xu.âKong Xu didnât care about Xu Baiâs unwillingness to go with him. Instead, he sent a fast horse over.
Xu Bai smiled but didnât say anything.
At this moment, the fourth puppet walked up and caught the horse.
âJust one horse might not be enough. Young Master Kong, if you want to achieve your goal, you might need more. âXu Bai hugged Ye Zi and mounted the horse.âThis Xu is in a hurry, so I wonât stay any longer.â
With that, Xu Bai left quickly.
Now that the puppet of the Fourth Stage had a horse, it followed behind on its horse.
Kong Xu stared in Xu Baiâs direction. Only after Xu Bai had walked far away did he recall Xu Baiâs words and fell into deep thought..
