Chapter 485

Bai Yuekui raised an eyebrow, feeling that to thoroughly deal with such a powerful place, she could only lay low for now,

wait until she had laid low to a certain extent, then strike back in one fell swoop, creating an unexpected outcome.

"Mm, I think so too, but I have a little doubt recently — I hope that doubt is unfounded."

"But if it is true, I do have some preparations in place."

Lin Bai raised an eyebrow, a smile on his face.

"Alright, alright, everyone finally got together — can we not talk about those things? Let's just properly enjoy this rare bit of time."

(ahca) Zhang Sanfeng, seeing these people bringing up unhappy matters the moment they met, hurriedly urged them along.

"Right, right, right, everyone eat first — it won't taste good once it's cold."

Tang San spoke up at the right moment, and afterward everyone began eating the food and chatting. Before long, the horizon had gone completely dark.

"Tang San, I've already had someone prepare rooms for these friends of yours — just let them stay."

In the evening, Flander came to Tang San's side and said softly.

"No need, they'll be heading back soon."

Tang San waved his hand — earlier, right after the meal, Lin Bai and the others had already said they were heading back.

So there was simply no need to prepare rooms for them.

"Won't they stay a few more days?"

Flander, hearing what Tang San said, looked utterly surprised — after all, they had only just arrived, and now the sky was already dark. Surely these people weren't planning to travel through the night?

"Mm, no need to mind them."

Tang San nodded. Seeing that, Flander said no more. After bidding farewell to Lin Bai and the others, he returned to his own quarters, while Lin Bai and the others directly pressed the teleport button and returned to their respective worlds.

"Oh no, Master and Shixiong are gone."

"I went early this morning to look for Shixiong and found he wasn't in his room at all. I asked every disciple on Green Luan Peak, and nobody even saw a trace of Shixiong. Do you think Shixiong did something stupid and went straight to attack the King of Hell's Hall?"

Wang Yuping, frowning, went to Lin Bai's room early in the morning, only to find no sign of Lin Bai at all. This made him extremely anxious, so he asked around again, but no one had seen Shixiong.

He couldn't wait and hurried to Feng Yunzheng's cave abode to seek his Master's opinion.

He truly feared his Shixiong might do something rash and go to the King of Hell's Hall alone.

"Relax, your Shixiong isn't that stupid. Most likely the kid is off busy with something again."

Feng Yunzheng glanced up at Wang Yuping's anxious look and waved his hand — he trusted that Lin Bai wasn't the reckless type; whatever he did, he had his own reasons.

"What could Shixiong possibly have going on?"

"At most he went down to the Main Peak to take a task, but I already went to the task reception too."

"Uncle Li said he never saw any trace of Shixiong."

Wang Yuping, seeing that Feng Yunzheng wasn't worried at all, grew even more anxious.

"Then tell me — you can't find your Shixiong now, what can you even do?"

"Besides, didn't I already hand him over to you?"

"Told you to keep an eye on him, and now the man is gone — what do you propose we do?"

Feng Yunzheng looked at Wang Yuping's anxious state with a helpless expression.

Still, he always felt that Lin Bai absolutely wouldn't be stupid enough to go looking for clues about the King of Hell's Hall on his own.

Besides, that kid didn't even know where the King of Hell's Hall actually was right now.

Even if he went, what good would it do?

"I — I don't know either."

Under Feng Yunzheng's questioning, Wang Yuping instantly froze.

These past few days he had been busy with the task at the Zong Sect's Repair Tower, and the moment it was finished, he had hurried off to find Lin Bai.

And he hadn't expected his own senior Shixiong to sneak out without telling him — he had always assumed the other would say something and bring him along.

"Eh, Wang Yuping, why are you at Master's place?"

Just as Wang Yuping was at a loss, Lin Bai's voice came through.

And Lin Bai was also taken aback when he saw the other.

"Shixiong, where did you go? I thought you'd gone to the King of Hell's Hall."

Hearing Lin Bai's voice, Wang Yuping quickly turned his head, and upon seeing Lin Bai his face lit up with excitement, while also fixing Lin Bai with a faintly reproachful stare.

"I just went to help a friend out with something."

"Besides, your Shixiong — am I that stupid? Knowing full well how dangerous the King of Hell's Hall is, how could I possibly go alone?"

"Not to mention Xiaohua already went, so there's even less need for me to go."

Lin Bai shrugged — did this junior brother of his really think he was that foolish?

Besides, Xiaohua had already gone — what would be the point of him going too?

"Fine, but Shixiong, remember this — next time you go somewhere, tell me in advance. You absolutely must not act alone."

Wang Yuping, seeing Lin Bai didn't look like he was lying, nodded, but still reminded Lin Bai uneasily.

"Got it, got it."

Lin Bai's face was helpless — this Wang Yuping really was quite the dutiful one. Ever since Master told him to keep an eye on Lin Bai, this kid really wished he could grow eyes on Lin Bai at every single moment.
