Chapter 315: Nameless Saber Scripture Mental Cultivation Method, Rank-4 (8000)
Translator: 549690339
The laughter of two people rang out by the dark lake. In this silent night, it was especially terrifying.
The next day.
After what happened last night, the clues were cut off again, but it didn’t matter to Xu Bai.
As long as he was still here, the other party would not let go of the opportunity to make a move. The clues would come sooner or later, so there was no need to worry about this at all.
Leaning against the chair in the room, Xu Bai placed his legs on the table and lay down, looking at the Nameless Saber Scripture in his hand.
The progress bar was growing by the minute. At this moment, he was not far from perfection. He only needed half a day at most to obtain another Nameless Saber Scripture.
As time passed, the streets outside gradually became more lively. The noise was so loud that Xu Bai could hear some slight noises.
This inn was located on the side of the street. It was already considered very good to be able to be soundproof to such an extent that only a slight sound could be heard.
After all, the Purple Wood Manor was much more prosperous than the Cloudcome Manor.
It was early in the morning, and the streets were already filled with people. There were vendors and stalls everywhere, shouting and selling all kinds of items.
“Let’s eat first.”
After such a disturbance, Xu Bai came back to his senses. He stopped playing with the progress bar and put the Nameless Saber Scripture into the wooden box. Then, he wrapped the wooden box with a bag and carried it on his back. Then, he turned around and left.
There were many pedestrians outside the street, and most of them were hanging around various stalls. Xu Bai walked along the street and finally came to a small stall and ordered breakfast.
Compared to some big restaurants, these small stalls were more lively.
Before long, the stall was filled with people, and Xu Bai’s breakfast was served.
There were people coming and going around, and from time to time, there would be sounds of conversation, sometimes loud and sometimes soft, but Xu Bai could hear it very clearly.
He listened as he ate, his eyes narrowing slightly.
The surrounding discussions gradually entered his ears.
“Have you heard? Many families had died, all of them from prestigious families. They had died miserably.”
“I’ve heard about it long ago. They probably offended someone. Otherwise, how could they have been exterminated?”
“You still dare to say that? Now that Lord Prefect Ling is also involved, it’s better to speak less. Be careful not to capture all of you.”
“I seem to have heard from the government runner that this time, the governor is only protecting the scene. There are other important figures coming over specifically to investigate this matter.”
The conversation was intermittent, but Xu Bai came to a conclusion after listening to everything.
Firstly, the extermination of these few clans had already caused a sensation in the Purple Wood Prefecture.
This was fine. After all, he had evidence in his hands. These people attacked the officials of the imperial court, so it was only right for them to end up like this. At most, they would find an excuse, such as an excuse that he had no choice but to act in a crisis.
Secondly, someone was coming over, and the reason why the prefecture order had protected the surrounding area was because of this person.
“Who is it?” Xu Bai drank the last mouthful of porridge and thought to himself, “”lt’s probably the Heaven Inspectorate.”
This matter was very obvious. In a situation where the prefecture magistrate did not know the inside story and did not know who did it, it was very likely that he would think that it was something related to the martial world. Therefore, it was very normal for the Heaven Inspectorate to come.
“Let’s wait and see.” Xu Bai thought of this and stood up. He took out some money and placed it on the table to pay the bill. Then, he turned around and walked back to the inn.
Nothing else happened along the way. After Xu Bai returned to the inn, he picked up the nameless saber and continued to go through his liver.
Since the other party did not make a move, he was happy to be idle. Continuing with the Nameless Liver Saber Scripture was the best choice.
The longer the time, the more advantageous it would be for the ‘loy’. After all, as time went on, the more skills he obtained, the stronger he would be, and the more stable he would be.
As he watched the progress bar slowly increase, Xu Bai became more and more excited.
There were only one or two traces left on the progress bar. He was waiting, waiting for the last trace of the progress bar to be completed. However, he did not expect that at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Who is it?” Xu Bai placed the book back into the wooden box and closed it. He then placed it in a secret place before raising his head and asking.
Outside the door, as Xu Bai asked this question, the knocking stopped abruptly. Then, Ji Xiaoshan’s voice was heard.
“Lord Xu, it’s me.” Ji Xiaoshan’s voice came from outside the door, carrying a trace of respect.
Compared to before, his tone was completely different. After all, their identities were different now, and they had already changed directions.
In the past, he had talked to Xu Bai as a collaborator. They were talking about a business deal, and each of them had their own capital. However, it was completely different now.
Everything had changed after his adopted brother attacked Xu Bai. They were in the wrong first, and Xu Bai did not make any excessive demands. Just this alone made them feel disadvantaged.
However, it didn’t matter if they were at a disadvantage. As long as they could cling to this thigh and rely on the Emperor, the day of the Jiqiao Pavilion’s recovery was just around the corner.
Last night, he had talked to his father. After his father heard the ins and outs of the matter, he was furious. However, after calming down, he immediately gave him the right.
No matter what, they could not give up on this thigh. On the contrary, since the other party had already expressed the intention to negotiate, they had to take action no matter what the outcome was..
