"Brother."

She said hello.

"Master."

Cai Lian bowed and saluted.

Ji Minglou nodded slightly, looked at Madam Ru and said, "Are you back to see your mother?"

"Yes." Mrs. Ru nodded.

She has been dependent on her elder brother since she was young, and the first person she thinks of when something happens is always her elder brother.

This time is no exception.

But her mother's instructions flashed through her mind, and she suppressed the urge to tell her elder brother about Yun Lin's life story.

Ji Minglou looked at his sister's slightly haggard face and consoled her, "Don't take the rumors on the island to heart. The city lord is not that kind of person. He would never go to Baihua Palace to have fun."

Mrs. Ru smiled bitterly in her heart.

She would rather the city lord fell in love with the disciples of Baihua Palace rather than discovering that Yun Lin was his own son.

After all, disciples are much easier to deal with than the Young Palace Master.

Madam Ru smiled and said, "I understand, brother. I will go back to the City Lord's Mansion first. Please take care of yourself."

Ji Minglou was worried about her: "I'll take you back."

Madam Ru said hurriedly, "No need, big brother. You have been so busy lately that I have seen you less often. I was thinking about you just now. Please come and spend more time with me when you are free."

After that, she shouted to the yard, "Mom, my elder brother is here to pay his respects to you!"

After getting on the carriage back home, Cai Lian asked Madam Ru, "Madam, why don't you let the hall master take you there?"

Madam Ru sighed, "He is my biological brother. I am afraid I will not be able to help but tell him about Yun Lin's life story."

Cai Lian understood.

The hall master loves his younger sister, the lady, very much, and the two siblings have a very close relationship.

It is said that the old hall master was insane before his death and almost killed his own daughter.

It was the hall master who blocked a sword for his wife, and there is still a scar on his body.

"But Madam, how are we going to deal with the Young Palace Master of Baihua Palace?"

"How to deal with ..."

Madam Ru frowned thoughtfully.

The most permanent way to eliminate the trouble is to make Yun Lin disappear from this world. As long as he is gone, his little son will be the city lord's only biological son.

But this method is somewhat difficult.

Yun Lin has been staying in Baihua Palace. With Yun Shuang protecting him, ordinary assassins cannot succeed.

Unless her elder brother takes action personally, it is obvious that her elder brother will not kill Yun Lin.

"I don't believe he can hide in Baihua Palace forever!" -One evening when the sun was setting, Jing Yi came back.

He came back alone, without the Saint Girl following him.

Nie Xiaozhu was playing with the phoenix bird in the yard with the three kids. When he saw his former follower, he left the phoenix bird and ran over.

He looked behind Jing Yi.

"Where are the people?"

He asked.

Jing Yi: "Who?"

Nie Xiaozhu opened his mouth: "Nothing."

He ran back to continue playing with the Phoenix Bird.

He touched the small bamboo tube in his arms.

This time he caught a big and powerful one, which must scare her! The three little ones called Jing Yi brother crisply, and Jing Yi responded to them, then dragged his tired body to Su Xiaoxiao.

Wei Ting was lying on the rattan chair and glanced at him: "Are you fleeing from famine?"

Jing Yi looked at Wei Ting who looked unhappy: "Did someone beat you up?"

Neither the father nor the son should laugh at each other.

Jing Yi went after the Saint Maiden that day, and he actually caught up with her, but she refused to come back with him.

He followed her all the way for many days.

Later, he found that the saint was walking straight into the sea, walking farther and farther, and almost drowning herself. He used the tranquilizer given to him by Su Xiaoxiao.

But just when he was halfway to bringing the saint back, the saint suddenly woke up and ran away again.

He came back to see if the Saint had run back to Baihua Palace.

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head.

Jing Yi said: "I'll look for it again."

Su Xiaoxiao stopped Jing Yi: "No need, since she doesn't want to stay with me anymore, she will run away again if I find her back." - Killer Alliance.

Jiang Guanchao has also heard a lot of rumors on the island recently, but what he is concerned about is not who the city lord has taken a fancy to and whether the other party will replace Madam Ru, but the situation of Wei Xu.

"Duanmu Qi is still in Baihua Palace."

Fourth senior brother Chen Yu reported all the information he had obtained to Jiang Guanchao.

Nether asked, "Where is Rakshasa?"

Chen Yu said: "To reply to Third Senior Brother, he is also in Baihua Palace."

Liu Zhener frowned and said, "The Hundred Flowers Palace really doesn't take our Killer Alliance seriously! They knew Luosha was a traitor to the Killer Alliance, but they still dared to take him in! I think the Hundred Flowers Palace did it on purpose!"

Qi Yao thought for a moment and said, "Master, are we really not going to tell the city lord about Duanmu Qi's true identity?"

Jiang Guanchao smiled faintly: "Even if we tell the city lord, he may not believe it. Yunshuang is the city lord's sister-in-law, and her words are a hundred times more effective than ours. However, if Wei Xu thinks that he can rest assured hiding in Baihua Palace, he is too naive."

Chen Yu asked excitedly: "Master, do you have a good plan?"

Jiang Guanchao said casually: "He managed to dodge the Full Moon Banquet, but it won't be so easy next time."

Youming said to his fellow disciples, "Let me make it clear first, Luosha is mine." -Unknowingly , September passed quietly, and the island gradually became colder. Su Xiaoxiao had to wear a windproof cloak when going out.

Su Xiaoxiao took Xing'er to the street to buy some satin.

Xing Er opened the carriage curtain, looked at the endless stream of people and said, "Miss, do you feel that there are suddenly many more people on the street?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "It's October now, the thick fog has dispersed, and many islanders who went out have returned."

Xing Er suddenly realized: "So that's it."

When the two returned to Baihua Palace, they found that Lu Aotian had come to their house today.

He was not here to deliver a message for Chu Feifeng, but to inquire whether Baihua Palace would participate in the martial arts competition held once every three years.

"All the disciples from the major sects have returned for the martial arts competition!"

Su Xiaoxiao hummed.

So this is why there are so many people on the street.

Lu Aotian looked at the Palace Master and Wei Xu sitting on the table, as well as Su Mo, Wei Ting, and Su Xiaoxiao at the lower left: "Are you going or not? The bounty this year is very generous!"

The palace master curled his lips.

The Baihua Palace is wealthy and powerful, so they won't fight to the point of bloodshed just for a small bounty.

In previous years, Baihua Palace never participated and only attended the opening sacrificial ceremony.

The palace master asked Wei Xu and the children, "Do you want to go?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "I want to see it."

Wei Ting: "Are you sure you just want to take a look?"

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes rolled around: "It's okay to hit her once."

Wei Ting: He knows it! "What's the reward?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Lu Aotian said: "The winner is the Dragon Roar Sword, which is handed down from the ancestors of the Xiahou family, and is worth 10,000 taels of gold. The second place winner is the Black Iron Sword, which is worth 5,000 taels of gold. The third place winner is also a powerful weapon of the Xiahou family, and is worth 3,000 taels of gold. Although the fourth to tenth place winners do not have weapons, they can also take gold.

"In addition, the top three will have the opportunity to enter the City Lord's Mansion's Collection Pavilion to select a martial arts secret book. The higher the ranking, the higher the floor you can enter, and the more precious the martial arts secret book will be."

Martial arts secrets and the like don’t matter; gold is what matters.

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "The first place actually has 10,000 taels of gold?"

Lu Aotian said: "Let's forget about getting the first place, it has always been in the hands of the Killer Alliance."

"Besides martial arts secrets, is there anything else in the Collection Pavilion?" Wei Ting asked.

Lu Aotian said: "Of course, there are a lot of books!"

Su Xiaoxiao asked Wei Ting in a low voice: "Is there a genealogy of the Xiahou family?"

Wei Ting said: "It is very likely."

"You must go."

Su Xiaoxiao looked towards the door and asked, "Mother-in-law?"

Granny Nie stepped inside and said, "If you want to unlock the Rakshasa secret technique, you must go to the Book Collection Pavilion."

The double-time event has begun, everyone clear out your tickets.
