Chapter 165: A Visit From The City Lord Estate

Chen Yan and the others finally heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Lin Bai returning safely. They hurriedly went forward to welcome him, Senior brother Lin, where have you been? Its already so late and youre not back yet. We all thought that something happened to you along the way and were prepared to look for you.

Thank you for your concern. I went to the suburbs for a walk and picked some herbs along the way to prepare for pill refinement.

Hearing this, everyone looked disapproving. Senior brother Lin, youve just recovered. Its too tiring for you to pick herbs and refine pills. Why dont you take a good rest? Its not too do pill refinement later on.

These people didnt know that Lin Bais injuries had already healed and he was on the verge of breaking through. However, it wasnt good for him to brush off everyones good intentions, so he could only express his gratitude:

Dont worry, I know what Im doing. In fact, refining pills can help my injuries recover, so theres no need to worry.

Seeing that he was determined to do so, the crowd didnt say anything else. They only reminded him not to overwork himself.

Alright then, senior brother Lin, you just have to be careful. If theres anything you need our help with, dont be polite.

When Lin Bai returned to refine the medicinal pills, the people from the City Lord Estate also found him.

Reporting to Lord Manager, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was bought by this person. His name is Lin Bai, and he was taken over by the Shao family from a small place to exchange and learn. There were also quite a number of people with him. They were all students of their local academies.

Manager Zhao frowned, He came from a small place. How could he have so much money to buy the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf? Could it be that the Shao family gave it to him? The Shao family doesnt seem like a philanthropist. Theyre so generous. Could it be that this kid has something special about him?

Theres a reason why he came here. Moreover, Ive asked Uncle Jin, and he said that this kid was using pills to trade with him.

His subordinates told him everything that had happened, including the fact that the young master in embroidered clothes had paid a high price to buy the pills. In the end, the wolf was severely injured when it attacked Jin Daya.

General Manager Zhao stroked the beard on his chin. No wonder.

Moreover, after Lin Bai entered the capital, he somehow got into a conflict with the young master of the He family. After that, he offended the He family, and the people from the Alchemy Association took a liking to him and made an exception for him to enter the association. Later on, they heard that he committed a serious crime and was severely injured by the president. Then, he was expelled from the Alchemy Association.

Initially, the people under him did not think much of Lin Bai. He was just an ordinary young man from a underdeveloped village. However, they did not expect that his experience would be so rich. It could be said that he had experienced ups and downs.

A hint of interest appeared in general manager Zhaos unfathomable eyes. It seems that this kid is still a little interesting. No matter what, we have to make a trip to the Shao family.

The people from the City Lords Estate suddenly came to their door, causing the people from the Shao family to be somewhat puzzled. Shao Feng sat on the main seat and heard the servants report. Who is it?

Its general manager Zhao.

Shao Feng was even more puzzled when he heard this. General Manager Zhao was a popular person by the City Lords side, and his status was only slightly lower than the Vice City Lords. He did not easily walk around in front of others. Even he rarely saw him, so their relationship was not very close.

Strange. Why did general manager Zhao suddenly come here?

After all, he was a favored person in front of the City Lord. He was responsible for handling all kinds of affairs in the City Lord Estate and could not be easily offended. Therefore, Shao Feng personally welcomed him.

I dont know what kind of wind blew today to make general manager Zhao come personally. However, what orders and instructions does the city lord have?

General Manager Zhao smiled faintly. Its been a long time since we last met, Master Shao. It seems that youre still as elegant as ever. I came here today to ask if theres a person called Lin Bai in the mansion.

Lin Bai?

Shao Feng originally thought that general manager Zhao was looking for them for something, but he did not expect Lin Bai to be suddenly mentioned. He paused for a moment and said, There is such a person.

Could it be that Lin Bai was coincidentally acquainted with general manager Zhao, or that there was some kind of relationship between them? The reason why the Alchemist Association made an exception to enter Lin Bai was also because of general manager Zhaos relationship.

For a moment, Shao Fengs thoughts surged, but he did not show it on his face at all. He probed, May I know why general manager Zhao is looking for him?

Its like this. I have something to ask him. Ill have to trouble Master Shao to call him over first. Then, you shall know when the time comes.

Seeing that general manager Zhao had already said so, Shao Feng naturally could not get to the bottom of it. He could only suppress the doubts in his heart and ask the servants to call Lin Bai out.

Lin Bai thought that the people from the He family were looking for trouble again. After all, they had failed to assassinate
