Chapter 485: Xiao Bai Came Alone

Xiao Bai came to see him again. She was still the same delicate and beautiful girl, but at this moment, tears streamed down her cheeks.

When Qin Feng saw this, he didn’t know what was going on. He immediately stepped forward and asked, “Xiao Bai, why didn’t you stay in Jinyang City and come here instead? And where is Sister Mo? Didn’t she come with you?”

Glancing back, the gatekeeper shook his head. Only Xiao Bai had come to visit the Qin residence; the elegant woman in black, with plump figure, had not accompanied her.

Rubbing her eyes, Xiao Bai choked out, “Aunt Mo is gone, wah...”

In Xiao Bai’s fragmented narrative, Qin Feng roughly understood the situation.

About five days ago, Sister Mo seemed to have sensed something and learned that her elder sister in the Western Regions was in danger. She wanted to go there alone to provide support but was concerned about leaving Xiao Bai alone in Jinyang City.

So, Sister Mo planned to take Xiao Bai with her to the Western Regions. With Sister Mo’s formidable strength, even in the frequently troubled Southern Regions, she could still move freely.

However, just two days ago, as they traveled along the necessary route to the Western Regions, Sister Mo seemed to have discovered something. After leaving something for Xiao Bai and giving her some instructions, she left abruptly.

After that, there was no more information.

Qin Feng’s face darkened. Xiao Bai was very important to Sister Mo, and her safety could not be compromised. What kind of accident could have occurred to make Sister Mo leave Xiao Bai behind?

“How did you find your way here?” Qin Feng asked curiously.

According to Xiao Bai, the place where she and Sister Mo separated was at least six hundred miles away from Imperial City.

Although Xiao Bai was a monster beast, her intelligence was comparable to that of a human child. How could she traverse mountains and rivers to reach Imperial City?

Moreover, the mountains and forests were full of danger, and Xiao Bai’s bloodline talent was not weak. For those demon kings and ghost lords, she was a good supplement.

Xiao Bai sobbed, “Aunt Mo told me to stay where I was and wait for her to come back. But I waited for a day and a night, and Aunt Mo didn’t come back.”

“I was hungry, so I want to find something to eat.”

“And then I met an uncle who looked like a mouse. He said he would take me here to find my brother, so I followed him.”

Xiao Bai gestured while answering, placing her two little fingers on both sides of his lips.

Qin Feng also understood somewhat. The so-called uncle who looked like a mouse was probably a middle-aged man with two small mustaches.

But how ugly the other party must be to make Xiao Bai give such a description.

Qin Feng saw Feilan standing outside in a daze without moving, and asked curiously, “Wife, why don’t you come in? I have something I need you to look at.”

Xiao Bai in his arms turned her head to look, and Cang Feilan’s mind shook. She hesitated for a moment but eventually approached slowly.

“This is a scale left by Sister Mo for Xiao Bai. Can you see anything from it?”

“Sister Mo? Is she the one who had this girl with you?” Cang Feilan blurted out.

“What the hell are you talking about? You can’t just make up things like that, it damages my reputation as a righteous gentleman.” Qin Feng’s face stiffened, hastily explaining the identities of Xiao Bai and Sister Mo.

“I see.” Cang Feilan let out a sigh of relief, knowing the reason behind the situation, a weight lifted off her heart.

As long as it’s not the situation she had in mind, it’s fine.

When Sister Mo led Xiao Bai to the Qin Mansion in Jinyang City, she was not in Jinyang City, so it’s understandable that she didn’t know.

But she never imagined that the so-called Sister Mo would turn out to be the snake demon in the Black Mist Forest, and that Xiao Bai would actually be able to transform into a fierce beast in the forest?

Looking again at the scales in her husband’s hand, Cang Feilan frowned slightly, “These should be reverse scales, it seems she’s not far from transforming into a dragon.”

“Reverse scales?” Qin Feng raised an eyebrow.

Cang Feilan nodded slightly.

Dragons have reverse scales, touching them means certain death, Qin Feng was familiar with this saying.

From Feilan’s description, Qin Feng roughly understood its function.

Reverse scales can emit powerful pressure and can also establish a connection with their owner.

Sister Mo left this item for Xiao Bai, presumably to intimidate demons and ghosts with it, and also to sense Xiao Bai’s location so she could easily find her at any time.

“The faint aura emanating from this scale is the connection with its owner. The closer the two are, the stronger this aura becomes,” Cang Feilan said lightly.

Qin Feng, hearing this, rubbed Xiao Bai’s head and comforted, “Sister Mo must have important matters to attend to and it’s inconvenient to take you with her. You’ll stay here and she’ll come to pick you up after she’s done with her business.”

“By the way, Wife, if the golden light on this scale doesn’t fade, it means Sister Mo is safe, right?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Feng noticed that the scale in his hand dimmed slightly, and he was immediately shocked.
