Chapter 369: Investigation

Even though Lin Bai comforted him, Little Black still looked confused and disappointed.

Lin Bai smiled when he saw Little Black’s human-like expression. He didn’t say anything else. Instead, he looked at Little Blue, who was also confused.

The holy light on Little Blue’s body disappeared, and the black-gold color returned to normal. The special patterns on its fur didn’t look special from afar.

“Little Blue, try and see if you can use that special move.”

Lin Bai’s voice was gentle, and there was a hint of anticipation on his face.

Under his continuous cultivation and Little Blue’s accumulation, Little Blue’s special features were finally revealed. The next step was to see how Little Blue would master it and make a breakthrough.

Little Blue’s brows were tightly knitted together. Its little face was tense, and its fists were tightly clenched. This appearance… was as if it was constipated.

After a long while.

Little Blue’s face was filled with disappointment.

No matter how hard he tried, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to recreate the previous scene.

Little Black was originally standing at the side unwillingly. Now that it saw Little Blue’s scene, the smile on its face could not be hidden.

When Little Blue saw this, its heart was filled with unwillingness. It racked its brain again to try.

Lin Bai did not stop Little Black from mocking and joking. Instead, he thought that this was a catalyst that could have a positive effect.

“Think about the scene of the fight with Little Black.”

Lin Bai softly understood.

Little Blue’s eyes were deep in thought, as if it was recalling something.

“Imagine the feeling of being in the scene and try to let your body and mind recreate the special feeling at that time.”

Little Blue failed again and again, but Lin Bai was still very patient.

Another half a day passed.

Hum!

The voice of a Buddhist saint sounded!

The black and gold light flowed on the surface of Little Blue’s body, like a corporeal armor sticking close to Little Blue’s body.

Little Blue danced with joy: Success!

“Not bad!” Lin Bai was not stingy with his praise. “Continue to feel it with your heart, and you’ll be able to master it more and more in the future.”

Little Blue nodded, its eyes full of excitement. It turned its head to look at the side. Little Black, whose face was a little ugly, waved its fist and rushed forward.

Little Black was not willing to be outdone. It waved its claws at Little Blue provocatively.

Bang!

The violent impact made Lin Bai’s robe flutter, and his hair fluttered wildly.

Little Blue jumped up high, wanting to hit Little Black in the head, but Little Black did not retreat at all. It used all its strength to ram its four limbs!

Rumble!

The two of them crashed into the woodshed in the depths of the courtyard.

The huge impact caused the woodshed, which was neither big nor small, to collapse in half in the blink of an eye.

The two little beasts fought and rushed into another attic. The attic immediately rang with the sound of all kinds of porcelain and wood being broken.

The two little beasts fought until the sky was dark and sand and stones flew everywhere.

Lin Bai withdrew his gaze after a long time and let the two little beasts go and cause a ruckus.

Sparring with each other would allow their strength to increase greatly.

Cough cough, but wasn’t this too much of a commotion?

If Elder Shi saw this…

Lin Bai drank the tea in his cup in one gulp. He was about to stand up and quickly leave this troublesome place.

“Tsk!”

At this moment, the thin man walked out from the west side of the courtyard. He was dressed in loose clothes, and his hair was unkempt. His face looked a little haggard.

After returning from the altar, although he had woken up earlier, his injuries were not shallow. He had been recuperating in the manor, and it was only after these two days that he felt better.

The thin man sat beside Lin Bai and poured himself a cup of tea. He looked at the two little beasts and said,

“I originally thought that Little Black was already very heaven-defying. I didn’t expect that now there’s another one… two fellows who can’t use up their energy at all. How terrifying!”

Lin Bai laughed and teased, “Eat more leeks and drink more goji berry water. If not, go and prescribe some medicine to nourish the kidney. How can a man say that he doesn’t have enough energy!”

The thin man’s expression turned ugly and he scolded jokingly, “Go to hell!”

After a moment of silence, the thin man said, “I heard about what happened in the city… There’s something fishy here!”

On his way here, the thin man happened to meet Elder Shi and asked about the situation in the city.

After hearing that the ‘Alchemist Association’ was speaking up for Lin Bai and taking the initiative to bury the hatchet, the thin man couldn’t help but frown.

His impression of the Alchemist Association could be said to be average. He always felt that they were doing this as a weasel paying a new year’s visit to a chicken. They did not have good intentions!

Lin Bai nodded and expressed his opinion.

“That makes sense!” The thin man’s eyes lit up. “They must be hiding something. However, you think that they will no longer harm you, but I don’t think that’s entirely the case!

“Those lunatics were fanned by the City Lord before, and they wanted you dead!”

After saying that, the skinny man rubbed his hands, and his eyes lit up:

“How about this! My injuries have almost fully recovered. I’ll go investigate and see what they’re up to. It just so happens that I’m good at this!”

Lin Bai didn’t stop him. He knew that the skinny man was cautious by nature and wouldn’t be the hero if he encountered difficulties, so he let him go without worry.

“It’s settled then. I’ll go prepare now!

“Fatty’s condition has also improved. If we wait for him to recover, then I’ll join hands with him and even steal the panties of the Alchemist Association’s ancestor!”

The thin man’s face was full of smiles. He could not wait to turn around and leave. His originally flimsy footsteps became lighter.

It was true that he wanted to help Lin Bai solve his problems, but he had been recuperating during this period of time and could not do anything. It was true that he was itching to go out and have a stroll.

After the skinny man left, Lin Bai found a servant.

“Sir, what can I do for you?”

When the servant saw Lin Bai, his face was full of respect and he didn’t dare to be negligent.

“Prepare two jars of good wine for me.” Lin Bai looked into the distance, but his voice was deep.

The servant quickly agreed and ran into the warehouse on the left. Soon, he carried two jars of good wine.

“Sir, would you like me to pour you some wine?”

“No need, just give me the wine.”

Lin Bai carried the two jars of wine and walked out of Bai Xi’s estate. It had been a long time since he had been out of Bai Xi’s mansion, and he stepped into the noisy street.

The sounds of peddlers hawking, children laughing, and shrews cursing…

It was so lively and peaceful…

The corners of Lin Bai’s mouth curled up slightly. He strolled leisurely in the courtyard and felt the smell of smoke and fire in the human world. He felt quite touched.

In the bustling city, there would occasionally be some people from the Alchemist Associations and people from various large clans. However, when they saw that Lin Bai only revealed a surprised expression, they didn’t go forward to stop him.

It seemed that the ‘demon’ that has already been annihilated.

Lin Bai couldn’t help but feel that it was a little funny, but he also felt like crying without tears.

With this thought in mind, when Lin Bai returned to his senses, he had already arrived at a bamboo forest. He followed a small slope up the mountain and arrived at the mountainside.

“Hey, look what I brought!”

Lin Bai had a smile on his face. He lifted the wine bottle in his hand, but the next second, the smile disappeared:

“It’s a pity that I didn’t bring the head of the City Lord here.”

Lin Bai sat cross-legged next to the small mound. He opened a jar of wine and poured it in front of the mound. Then, he opened another jar and took a sip.

“Good wine!”
