Chapter 2997: Chapter 2997: Let’s Wait and See
As for Bai Ti, he’s Yan’er’s cousin. With the young master of White Lion City not around, it makes sense to entrust this matter to him. No one could really find fault with that.
City Lord Bai: “!”
Seems like nobody wants to get involved with the Le Family’s affairs, huh?
Alright then, let Ti’er handle it. After all, it’s just someone from the City Lord Residence dealing with it. Plus, Ti’er is the right choice since he loves doing business.
The Le Family’s shop will soon be empty, just right for him to take over. Perfect.
“Then let Ti’er go, he loves doing these things the most.”
“Hmm.”
Hong Dahua couldn’t be happier about pushing the Le Family’s matters aside.
However, she always found it strange how the Second Young Master Sima died so mysteriously. The Le Family had just gotten into trouble, and then the Young Master Le killed the Second Young Master Sima?
Even an idiot wouldn’t dare commit murder at such a critical moment, right?
Moreover, the victim was also the direct descendant of the Sima Family, a major clan. There might be another reason behind all this.
“I’ll personally go and investigate how the Second Young Master Sima actually died.”
Hearing this, City Lord Bai was stunned.
Suddenly, he realized that the timing was indeed too precise.
“You don’t need to go yourself. Let Elder Xin take care of it. He will definitely be able to uncover something.” If something could indeed be uncovered, that would be great.
Although he wouldn’t interfere, if someone was truly behind this, it would be a good leverage to hold.
“That works.”
Hong Dahua thought for a moment and nodded.
It also meant she could free herself to do her own things.
“Since there’s nothing else, I’m planning to visit Secluded Gorge soon. What do you think?” she asked City Lord Bai.
City Lord Bai: “!!!”
Might as well let Dahua handle the investigation of the Second Young Master Sima. Why did he even open his mouth?
Secluded Gorge is where the Clan Elders of the City Lord Residence go for closed door cultivation. If his wife goes there, who knows how many months she’ll be gone, how could he handle being alone?
“What are you going to Secluded Gorge for? It’s just a bunch of old men there, what’s so interesting about that?” he asked with a pout.
Hong Dahua rolled her eyes at her husband, utterly speechless.
Why else would she go to Secluded Gorge? If the Evil Dragon truly emerges, do you think just the two of them could persuade so many of the Beastmen Tribe in the Beast Domain to fight alongside them?
They’d still need to rely on the connections and reputation built by the older generation. If the Clan Elders don’t step up at the time, they wouldn’t be anything on their own.
“Indeed, just a bunch of old men.”
But it’s precisely these old men who can make a huge difference.
“You, such a big person, still can’t compare to this bunch of old men.” She gave him a disdainful look and then turned back to the City Lord Residence.
City Lord Bai: “…”
How come he’s no match for those old men?
Though he might not be able to compare in cultivation level, he’s still young and busy running around every day. How could he compare to those old men just eating and cultivating in Secluded Gorge?
When he reaches the age of those old men… pfft, why is he even cursing himself, he’s still young!
“Let’s stop talking about Secluded Gorge. Today’s drama isn’t over yet, let’s just wait and see.”
On one side, there’s the Young Master Le; on the other, the Second Young Master of the Sima Family. No matter how much the Head of Le Family comes to apologize, today’s matter will definitely end up at the City Lord Residence, so he has to wait for it.
