Li Muhao and Xiao Yanbao first looked at the photo, and after confirming that the person in the photo was indeed their fourth uncle, Li Qichen, they carefully and secretly looked at their older sister's expression.
The older woman, whose fighting style was very cool, had no discernible emotion on her face, so it was impossible to determine whether she was there for revenge or something else.
Xiao Yanbao and Li Muhao immediately became worried. Could it be that their fourth uncle had offended the other party? If so, wouldn't the other party take revenge on them?
Thinking of this, Li Muhao immediately took out the calligraphy brush magic weapon, but Xiao Yanbao secretly shook the long whip.
The whip, which was more than two meters long, instantly retracted onto Xiao Yanbao's wrist. This illusionary function, which was only found in high-level magical artifacts, immediately attracted the other party's attention.
"Your bracelet is quite nice. It seems your family is quite extraordinary!"
"Unusual?" Upon hearing the other person's words, Li Muhao thought to himself that his family was certainly extraordinary. A slight sense of pride welled up within him. Then the other person spoke again:
"What is your relationship with this person? I came here specifically to find him!"
The other party shrank the long spear magic weapon and put it away, then stared at Xiao Yanbao and Li Muhao with her beautiful eyes.
But her phone remained in front of Xiao Yanbao and Li Muhao, as if she was waiting for Li Muhao to answer her questions.
Feeling smug because the other party praised his extraordinary family background, Li Muhao replied without hesitation:
"He is my fourth uncle."
After Li Muhao finished speaking, Xiao Yanbao immediately followed up with a question.
"Beautiful lady, is there something you need from him?"
Little Yanbao's sweet, childlike voice called out "Beautiful Sister!" Xiang Yibai couldn't resist wanting to rub Little Yanbao's rosy cheeks. However, with Li Muhao beside him, Xiang Yibai could only suppress his barely contained desire.
Seeing Xiao Yanbao's bright, blinking eyes looking at him, Xiang Yibai felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey. His voice trembled slightly as he spoke.
"N-nothing...it's nothing. My name is Xiang Yibai. What's your name?"
Little Yanbao sweetly called out "Beautiful Sister" again, and then said:
"My name is Li Xinyan, you can call me Yanbao!"
Just then, Xiang Yibai's phone rang. He turned on the speakerphone, and Xiao Yanbao heard his fourth uncle, Li Qichen, speak on the other end of the line:
"Master Yibai, I've arrived at the plaza in front of the mall. Where are you? I can't see you!"
Master Yibai? Xiao Yanbao and Li Muhao immediately glanced at Xiang Yibai, recalling how he had destroyed the ghosts, and felt that Xiang Yibai was very much in line with the identity of a Taoist priest.
However, the name Master Yibai is somewhat reminiscent of Master Yimei, and it's unclear whether there's any connection between them.
Xiang Yibai coughed lightly, forcing his voice to become rough and hoarse, and slowly began to speak:
"I'm upstairs in the mall, I have some business to attend to, and I just happened to run into your nephew and niece here. I'll bring them down to find you in a bit!"
"Niece? Is it Yanbao's darling? Yanbao's darling!"
All that could be heard on the phone was Uncle Li Qichen calling out for Xiao Yanbao. Xiang Yibai pursed his lips slightly and then hung up the phone.
Xiao Yanbao and Li Muhao didn't understand why Xiang Yibai didn't use his real voice to speak to his fourth uncle, but instead pretended to have a hoarse voice. Just as they were wondering, Xiang Yibai picked Xiao Yanbao up and quickly walked towards the stairs.
For a moment, Li Muhao thought Xiang Yibai had come to kidnap Xiao Yanbao, but after seeing Xiang Yibai's face again, that feeling vanished instantly.
Xiao Yanbao had a lot of questions to ask this beautiful older sister who had suddenly appeared, but she never got a chance to speak.
On the way from the top floor to the square downstairs to meet Uncle Si, Xiang Yibai kept gently kneading Xiao Yanbao's face with his fingertips. Xiao Yanbao did not stop him because Xiang Yibai's fingers were really soft, like a feather gently brushing across Xiao Yanbao's face.
A minute later, Xiang Yibai appeared at the mall entrance carrying Xiao Yanbao, and Li Muhao followed closely behind.
"Here! Here!"
Li Qichen, who was guarding the entrance of the mall, had not yet noticed Xiang Yibai. The unlucky guy sitting on Li Qichen's shoulder pointed in the direction of Xiao Yanbao, who was being held in Xiang Yibai's arms, and shouted.
Xiang Yibai seemed to sense the aura of the unlucky guy and subconsciously tried to summon the blue spear that had turned into the size of a palm. Just as the blue spear was about to revert to its original form, Xiao Yanbao hurriedly reached out and pressed down on Xiang Yibai's arm.
"That's the unlucky guy who coexists with my fourth uncle. He's not a bad person, please don't hit him."
Since Xiao Yanbao had spoken, Xiang Yibai immediately put away the miniature spear in his hand.
Li Qichen had never met Xiang Yibai before; the two had only chatted on WeChat on their phones. Now, seeing how beautiful she was, Li Qichen, who usually didn't care about anything, suddenly became shy.
The unlucky guy pointed at Li Qichen with a look of utter disappointment, getting more and more agitated as he spoke. When Xiao Yanbao got closer to Li Qichen, all she could hear was the unlucky guy berating him, saying he was a cowardly man and shouldn't blame himself for not being able to find a wife.
Li Qichen seemed to have been driven to desperation by the unlucky fellow. He gritted his teeth, took a step forward, and wanted to greet Xiang Yibai politely, but he didn't expect to lose his footing and stumble and fall in front of Xiang Yibai.
Li Qichen didn't bother to get up. He first looked up at Xiang Yibai standing in front of him and greeted him somewhat awkwardly.
