"Li Guxian? He Qiyun?"
Lin Bai never dreamed that he would meet these two women here.
Li Guxian, the daughter of the lord of Qinglian City in Kezhou, is now the lord of Leping County of the royal family of Chu State.
He Qiyun's relatives are also well-known big chambers of commerce in Kezhou.
Since the Kezhou Blood God Sect incident ended, Li Guxian and He Qiyun followed His Royal Highness Chen to the imperial capital, and Lin Bai never asked about Li Guxian and He Qiyun again.
Calculated now, Lin Bai has not seen Li Guxian and He Qiyun for a full year or two.
But he didn't expect to see these two girls here, in this way....
"Master Wolf, let me go, I promise not to hurt these two girls."
Taoist Yao Qian's face was grim. He pinched He Qiyun's throat with his left hand and Li Guxian's throat with his right hand.
The palm was very hard, and the nails had pierced into the flesh and blood of Li Guxian and He Qiyun, and the blood flowed down the snow-white necks of the two girls.
If Lin Bai does not agree, Taoist Yao Qian will crush the throats of these two girls without hesitation.
"Brother Lin, save me..." Li Guxian shouted at Lin Bai with tears in her eyes.
"Brother Lin, don't mess around..." He Qiyun also turned pale with shock, and said hastily.
Lin Bai took a deep breath, and then let it out heavily, his expression was colder than ten thousand years of ice.
Li Guxian is a member of the current royal family, and holds the title of "Le Ping Princess". If she dies, the royal family will probably not let it go.
Moreover, when he was in Kezhou, Lin Bai was often taken care of by Li Guxian, so he was kind to Lin Bai.
Naturally, it was impossible for Lin Bai to watch Li Guxian die in front of his eyes.
After hesitating again and again, Lin Bai said to Taoist Yao Qian: "You already know that the key to the treasure is in my hands, and it is useless to keep the twenty-first prince."
"Tell me where the twenty-first prince is, and I will let you go today!"
Lin Bai made a compromise, as long as Taoist Yao Qian told the whereabouts of the twenty-first prince, he would let him go.
Daozi Yao Qian narrowed his eyes, his expression was flustered, apparently a little unsure about paying attention.
But after a while, he replied, "I hope Lord Wolf will keep his word."
"I have already informed these two girls of the twenty-first prince's whereabouts. After I leave, Lord Wolf will naturally learn about the twenty-first prince's whereabouts from these two girls."
Lin Bai shook his head and said, "You have to tell me yourself, otherwise why should I believe what you said is true?"
Taoist Yao Qian explained: "As Lord Wolf said...the key to the treasure is already in the hands of Lord Wolf. It is not only not good for us to keep the twenty-one princes, but also a big trouble."
"We won't keep the twenty-first prince, since Lord Wolf wants the twenty-first prince, then I'll give it to you!"
Lin Bai frowned, and thought for a while... It seems that there is no other better way at present.
"Okay." Lin Bai nodded and agreed, "If I don't find the twenty-first prince this time, the next time I meet you, it will be your death."
"Master Wolf, I'm leaving." Taoist Yao Qian snorted coldly, patted the shoulders of the two girls with both palms, and threw He Qiyun and Li Guxian towards Lin Bai.
Lin Bai had quick eyes and quick hands, and caught He Qiyun and Li Guxian. When he looked up again, there was no trace of Taoist Yao Qian.
"It's pretty fast." Lin Bai sneered.
Taoist Yao Qian's hiding technique is not simple, otherwise, he would not be able to come and go freely in the imperial capital.
After finding no trace of Daoist Yao Qian, Lin Bai asked Li Guxian and He Qiyun: "You two girls, are you alright?"
"Thank you Brother Lin for saving me, I'll be fine." Li Guxian responded politely, but her complexion was still pale, and she looked at the direction where Taoist Yao Qian left with lingering fear.
"Why did the two girls appear here?" Lin Bai wondered.
"We are here to visit an old friend." Li Guxian explained in a low voice, she turned her head to Huaxianyuan, and said: "This place is called Huaxianyuan, and it is the residence of 'Princess Qingyue'."
"Princess Qingyue is old with my father. After I came to the imperial capital, I have visited 'Princess Qingyue' many times."
"Today we came to visit the eldest princess, but unexpectedly, as soon as the chariots and horses arrived outside the courtyard, we were attacked by that villain."
When Li Guxian talked about this matter, the fear on her face was still there, and her brows were frowning with worry.
Princess Qingyue? ...Lin Bai frowned. This name is a little strange. Is it the daughter of Emperor Chu?
Seeing Lin Bai's confusion, Li Guxian continued to explain: "Princess Qingyue is the eldest daughter of the previous Emperor Chu, that is... the sister of the current Emperor Chu."
Isn't that the aunt of His Highness Chen Wang? Didn't expect the owner of this house to have such a great background? ... Lin Bai was a little surprised in his heart.
But when he thought about it carefully, he didn't seem to find the figure of "Eldest Princess" when he entered the Flower Fairy Garden just now?
In the entire Flower Fairy Garden, apart from a few servants, Lin Bai did not find any other traces of people.
"I just came out of the Flower Fairy Garden, why haven't I seen the eldest princess?" Lin Bai asked with a frown.
"This place is the other courtyard of Princess Qingyue, and the princess will come here to view the flowers only in her free time." Li Guxian explained.
Lin Bai felt a mess in his head, as if there were countless threads entangled together, which could not be untied no matter what.
Forget it, let's talk about it later... Lin Bai didn't get entangled in this matter for the time being, but instead asked, "What news did that person tell you just now?"
"Where is the twenty-first prince?"
Li Guxian replied: "He said...the twenty-first prince is at No. 98 Jiuwei Lane, Tianxiang Street, Dongcheng."
"Okay." Lin Bai silently wrote down the name of the place, and was about to go, when he saw that Zhu Mo had arrived here with Zhao Xing Si Wu Zhe.
Zhao Xingsi... always one step late... Lin Bai frowned.
Every time you encounter trouble, you can never count on Zhao Xingsi. Whenever the trouble is solved, Zhao Xing Si will come.
This is also strange.
"Master Wolf." Zhu Mo walked over, with a wry smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Why is it Lord Wolf again?"
Lin Bai sneered, "Lord Zhu Mo, why is it Master Zhu Mo again?"
Zhu Mo laughed dryly, and looked back at Huaxianyuan. After the battle just now, most of this place has been destroyed.
"Tsk tsk..." Lord Zhu Mo narrowed his eyes, "Does Lord Wolf know who the owner of this house is?"
"I didn't know it before, but I know it now." Lin Bai whispered.
"Then Lord Wolf will be in trouble." Zhu Mo shook his head and said, "This master is notoriously ruthless. When he gets angry, even His Majesty has to give way."
"The Marquis Wolf destroyed her house, and I'm afraid she won't let it go."
