Chapter 72: More Trouble

Just as Lin Bai was cultivating in the Spirit Gathering Pavilion, the Shao family disciples who could not find him for a long time had no choice but to go back and report to him.

Shao Feng was furious when he heard that. What! You actually lost him?

The two disciples only realized how serious the matter was when they saw Shao Fengs bleak expression as if he was about to eat someone up. They originally thought that they had just lost a student from the country side. Now that they looked at the family head, it seemed that there was something else going on.

A great pressure came from above their heads. The sword technique struck down from the sky with a thunderous momentum. The two disciples suddenly spat out large mouthfuls of blood. Like frightened quails, they trembled and did not dare to raise their heads.

Please spare our lives, family head. We have been following closely. Who would have thought that the person would disappear in the blink of an eye? He must have discovered our tracking and used some kind of method.

The third elders expression was also not very good. This Lin Bai is definitely the murderer. Otherwise, how would he have discovered our tracking and thought of ways to get rid of these two disciples? He must be feeling guilty and trying to escape.

Shao Feng could not contain his anger. He was about to catch Shao Yuchens murderer, but because of these two disciples, he let him go. How could he not be angry.

He immediately regretted not listening to the third elder at the beginning. Now that he had let the tiger go back to the mountain, it would be very difficult to find Lin Bai again.

Shao Feng gritted his teeth and said with a slightly murderous tone, You deserve to die.

The two disciples kowtowed desperately and begged for mercy, Master, please spare my life. Master, please spare my life.

It was too late. At that time, Shao Fengs spiritual power turned into a sword and was about to hit their skulls, but he was stopped by the fourth elder next to him.

Family head, its useless to punish them now. Since we already know who the murderer is, I heard that the person who came with him, the dean of his school is also here. Its better to follow the clues and capture his family. Itll be useful after all.

What he said made sense. As expected, Shao Fengs expression became much better. He smiled sinisterly and revealed a hint of malevolence. Very good. Since he ran away, let his family atone for their sins.

At this moment, a servant came to report that Lin Bai had returned. Moreover, he was right outside the door. Shao Feng could not believe it. He hurriedly joined the few elders and happened to see Lin Bai walking into the main door.

He immediately revealed a flattered expression. How could I be able to make everyone welcome me like this?

The third elder blurted out, Didnt you run away?

Lin Bai immediately revealed a confused expression. Run? Where am I going to run to? Moreover, am I not here to study. Im just going out for a walk to get some fresh air. How could I run away?

After saying that, he seemed to be joking. Could it be that the Shao family has treated us as prisoners?

The third elder knew that he had misspoken and quickly said, Of course not. Were just worried about your safety. However, where did you go previously? Seeing that you havent returned for so long, we were worried that something might have happened to you, but we couldnt find you no matter how hard we tried.

Lin Bai waved the plate in his hand. Only then did everyone realize that it was actually the Spirit Gathering Pavilions A plate.

You actually went to the Spirit Gathering Pavilion!

Lin Bai nodded. I heard that the Spirit Gathering Pavilions cultivation room is pretty good. I just spent too much time cultivating. Sorry for troubling everyone to worry about me. If theres nothing else, Im going back to my room first.

Under the watchful eyes of Shao Feng, the elders, and the others, Lin Bai walked in calmly.

The other elders looked at each other. Elder, look at this

They thought that Lin Bai had run away, so there was no doubt that he was the murderer. However, now that he had come back, would he be so stupid if he was really the murderer? Would he walk right into the trap?

The murderer should be someone else. If he was really guilty, he wouldnt have come back.

The third elder, on the other hand, had a different opinion. Perhaps he released a smoke bomb to confuse us. Anyway, I think this person is very suspicious. Theres actually nothing wrong with him. Why would he ditch the people we sent out?

Perhaps its just an accident. Moreover, whats the benefit of doing this? Rather than releasing a smoke bomb, its better to directly escape.

Other than Lin Bai, there were also quite a number of people who went out earlier. The disciples that were sent out to follow them all came back to report, but they did not find anything unusual. Shao Feng could not make up his mind for a while. Lets stick to the previous plan. We should not alert the enemy for the time being. Anyway, all the people are here. None of them can escape.

Lin Bai did not know that he had escaped unscathed. When he returned to the courtyard, the director said, The Shao family seems to have something to talk to you about. They seem to be quite a
