Chapter 735

Having learned from the experience of Lu Yang asking who the culprit was when he didn't know himself, the Immortal Fairy used her immortal sense to scan the Xiangong at all times, swearing that she must find the culprit and restore her reputation.

Fortunately, she had finally found a clue now.

As expected, as long as she, Huang Doudou, took action, there was no case she couldn't solve!

"Who? Bai Ye?"

Lu Yang heard the Immortal Fairy interrupt out of the blue, and the words "Palace Master Luo" that were on the tip of his tongue just wouldn't come out.

"Fairy, can you say what you see earlier next time!" Lu Yang didn't believe that the Fairy hadn't discovered clues before Bai Ye drugged the laurel tree.

And even if it was Bai Ye, how did she break the medicine storehouse barrier?

"Isn't it important to catch the culprit and the stolen goods together? I was just suspicious before. What if I wrongly blamed that girl?" The Immortal Fairy had been learning law from Lu Yang for so long that she had quite a legal mindset.

"Senior Brother? Senior Brother Lu Yang?" Seeing Lan Ting noticed that Senior Brother Lu Yang had stopped talking halfway through his analysis, feeling extremely puzzled. She waved her fair, tender little hand in front of Lu Yang and finally called him back.

Lu Yang realized he was currently analyzing the case and it wasn't the time to bicker with the Immortal Fairy.

"Come, come, let me take the lead!" The Immortal Fairy felt that since she had discovered the truth, she should be the one to reveal the answer!

Lu Yang was no match for the Immortal Fairy and was possessed in an instant.

The Immortal Fairy revealed an expression of having just woken from a dream: "Ah, I'm here, I'm here. Where were we just now?"

"You just said, 'The person who committed the crime is precisely Luo...', and then you stopped talking."

Seeing Lan Ting looked at Lu Yang with a strange expression, though she hid it well.

Why did it feel like Senior Brother had changed into a different person?

With her experience of long-term possession and acting as Lu Yang in the Imperial City, the Immortal Fairy now imitated Lu Yang vividly, not even referring to herself as "this Immortal" anymore.

"I just said that the person who committed the crime is precisely the frail Bai Ye!"

The Immortal Fairy said with certainty: "The person who commits a crime often returns to the scene of the crime. If my guess is correct, she is currently at the thirtieth laurel tree in the twelfth row of the laurel forest!"

Seeing Lan Ting was confused. How did Senior Brother Lu Yang deduce such a detailed location? Had she missed a step just now?

As expected, she still couldn't keep up with Senior Brother Lu Yang's way of thinking.

And most importantly...

"Who is Bai Ye?"

She had never heard of such a person in the Xiangong.

"You don't know her? She runs over to my place every night to listen to stories." The Immortal Fairy's tone was a bit resentful when she said this.

If it weren't for this little girl Bai Ye occupying Lu Yang's nighttime hours, Lu Yang could have played snowball fights with her all night.

"Runs over to your place every night to listen to stories?" Seeing Lan Ting was even more surprised. Who was this person who didn't cultivate at night and secretly ran to Senior Brother's place to get there first?

"Wait, wait, how could Junior Sister Seeing Lan Ting have never heard of Junior Sister Bai Ye?" Lu Yang in the mental space couldn't help but ask.

This makes it seem like I'm telling stories to a non-existent person every night; it's very terrifying.

"An existence like an avatar of the Laurel Tree Ancestor is probably a secret in the Xiangong. It's normal that Lan girl hasn't heard of her." The Immortal Fairy revealed Bai Ye's identity nonchalantly, as if the Laurel Tree Ancestor were some insignificant little character.

"The Laurel Tree Ancestor?!" Lu Yang was greatly shocked.

He suddenly remembered that Bai Ye had given him a bag of laurel flowers and told him to eat them for fun. Could it be that Bai Ye had plucked them from herself?

The Immortal Fairy didn't pay attention to Lu Yang's astonishment for the time being. She was now the only person in the Xiangong who knew the truth, and she felt that her IQ had reached a realm beyond the mundane, and she had to seize the opportunity to catch Bai Ye in one go.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Let's go chase Bai Ye!"

The Immortal Fairy waved her hand and led Seeing Lan Ting running all the way to Luo Hongxia's cave dwelling.

Little Yangzi had no cultivation base now, so even if he found Bai Ye, he wouldn't be able to catch her. He needed Luo Hongxia, that defeated opponent, to help.

But then again, it seemed that even if little Yangzi still had his cultivation base, he wouldn't be able to catch up to Bai Ye.

At this moment, Luo Hongxia also had three spirit fruits in front of her, thinking about which spirit fruit had stolen the medicinal herbs.

She heard a knock on the door, opened it, and saw no one.

"Here, here."

Luo Hongxia looked down and saw two little ones.

"Master, Senior Brother Lu Yang has deduced who the culprit is. It's a little girl named Bai Ye, about as tall as me, and she's in the laurel forest!"

"Who is Bai Ye?" Luo Hongxia had also never heard this name.

However, her expression quickly became serious. Now was not the time to study who Bai Ye was. Since there were traces of the culprit, going to the laurel forest to catch Bai Ye was the most important thing!

"Let's go!"

Luo Hongxia soared into the air, then discovered two people were missing from her side. She looked down and saw the two little ones running desperately toward the laurel forest.

Luo Hongxia landed, tucked one under each arm, and sped toward the laurel forest again.

"Let's go!"

Luo Hongxia carried the two burdens, her speed no slower than usual, and she thoughtfully placed a transparent shield over them to prevent the cold wind from rushing in and harming their bodies.

She flew over the laurel forest and indeed discovered a petite figure pouring something into a laurel tree pit, muttering something.

"Take this, thief!"

Luo Hongxia dropped the two little ones and launched a fierce attack.

Due to the existence of the shield, the two bounced twice on the ground and landed steadily, not frightened.

The petite figure saw Luo Hongxia's move and thought, "Oh no." She had been engrossed in experimenting on the laurel tree and hadn't noticed Luo Hongxia's arrival.

The petite figure seemed to have no intention of fighting and turned to run, her speed so fast that she left a phantom image in place, her true body having instantly moved somewhere else.

Even with Luo Hongxia's eyesight, she couldn't catch up to the petite figure's trail!

Luo Hongxia opened her spiritual sense to search, but found nothing.

She recalled the face the petite figure had revealed, her brows locked in a frown.

"A face I've never seen before. Could it be an outsider?"

"That was close, that was close. I was almost caught by little Luo." The petite figure leaned against the Laurel Tree Ancestor, panting in fear, still unable to figure out how Luo Hongxia had discovered her.

It was as if she knew she was over there; the target was quite clear.

"Hehe, want to run? Can you run?" A childish laugh sounded from behind the petite figure, scaring her into turning around abruptly.

"Who is it!"

She was certain that she had opened her spiritual sense, and if someone had approached her, she would definitely have noticed.

And how did the other party know she was here?

"Lu Yang?" The petite figure was surprised. How could it be Lu Yang?

"Little girl Bai Ye, obediently come back with me and admit your mistake." The Immortal Fairy laughed triumphantly. No matter how fast Bai Ye moved, could she be faster than her immortal sense?

Caught with the culprit and the stolen goods—a great achievement!

The petite figure snorted coldly: "I am not Bai Ye; I am Bai Ri."

In the mental space, Lu Yang vaguely remembered hearing this name somewhere and was suddenly startled.

"Bai Ri... why do I remember that the founder of the Xiangong, True Person Zhuiyue, was called Bai Ri?"
