Imparting My Cultivation To Beasts Gets Me 10,000X In Return! Chapter 165 - : A Visit From The City Lord Estate

Chapter 165: A Visit From The City Lord Estate

Chen Yan and the others finally heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Lin Bai returning safely. They hurriedly went forward to welcome him, “Senior brother Lin, where have you been? It’s already so late and you’re not back yet. We all thought that something happened to you along the way and were prepared to look for you.”

“Thank you for your concern. I went to the suburbs for a walk and picked some herbs along the way to prepare for pill refinement.”

Hearing this, everyone looked disapproving. “Senior brother Lin, you’ve just recovered. It’s too tiring for you to pick herbs and refine pills. Why don’t you take a good rest? It’s not too do pill refinement later on.”

These people didn’t know that Lin Bai’s injuries had already healed and he was on the verge of breaking through. However, it wasn’t good for him to brush off everyone’s good intentions, so he could only express his grat.i.tude:

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. In fact, refining pills can help my injuries recover, so there’s no need to worry.”

Seeing that he was determined to do so, the crowd didn’t say anything else. They only reminded him not to overwork himself.

“Alright then, senior brother Lin, you just have to be careful. If there’s anything you need our help with, don’t be polite.”

When Lin Bai returned to refine the medicinal pills, the people from the City Lord Estate also found him.

“Reporting to Lord Manager, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was bought by this person. His name is Lin Bai, and he was taken over by the Shao family from a small place to exchange and learn. There were also quite a number of people with him. They were all students of their local academies.

Manager Zhao frowned, “He came from a small place. How could he have so much money to buy the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf? Could it be that the Shao family gave it to him? The Shao family doesn’t seem like a philanthropist. They’re so generous. Could it be that this kid has something special about him?”

“There’s a reason why he came here. Moreover, I’ve asked Uncle Jin, and he said that this kid was using pills to trade with him.”

His subordinates told him everything that had happened, including the fact that the young master in embroidered clothes had paid a high price to buy the pills. In the end, the wolf was severely injured when it attacked Jin Daya.

General Manager Zhao stroked the beard on his chin. “No wonder.”

“Moreover, after Lin Bai entered the capital, he somehow got into a conflict with the young master of the He family. After that, he offended the He family, and the people from the Alchemy a.s.sociation took a liking to him and made an exception for him to enter the a.s.sociation. Later on, they heard that he committed a serious crime and was severely injured by the president. Then, he was expelled from the Alchemy a.s.sociation.”

Initially, the people under him did not think much of Lin Bai. He was just an ordinary young man from a underdeveloped village. However, they did not expect that his experience would be so rich. It could be said that he had experienced ups and downs.

A hint of interest appeared in general manager Zhao’s unfathomable eyes. “It seems that this kid is still a little interesting. No matter what, we have to make a trip to the Shao family.”

The people from the City Lord’s Estate suddenly came to their door, causing the people from the Shao family to be somewhat puzzled. Shao Feng sat on the main seat and heard the servant’s report. “Who is it?”

“It’s general manager Zhao.”

Shao Feng was even more puzzled when he heard this. General Manager Zhao was a popular person by the City Lord’s side, and his status was only slightly lower than the Vice City Lord’s. He did not easily walk around in front of others. Even he rarely saw him, so their relations.h.i.+p was not very close.

“Strange. Why did general manager Zhao suddenly come here?”

After all, he was a favored person in front of the City Lord. He was responsible for handling all kinds of affairs in the City Lord Estate and could not be easily offended. Therefore, Shao Feng personally welcomed him.

“I don’t know what kind of wind blew today to make general manager Zhao come personally. However, what orders and instructions does the city lord have?”

General Manager Zhao smiled faintly. “It’s been a long time since we last met, Master Shao. It seems that you’re still as elegant as ever. I came here today to ask if there’s a person called Lin Bai in the mansion.”

Lin Bai?

Shao Feng originally thought that general manager Zhao was looking for them for something, but he did not expect Lin Bai to be suddenly mentioned. He paused for a moment and said, “There is such a person.”

Could it be that Lin Bai was coincidentally acquainted with general manager Zhao, or that there was some kind of relations.h.i.+p between them? The reason why the Alchemist a.s.sociation made an exception to enter Lin Bai was also because of general manager Zhao’s relations.h.i.+p.

For a moment, Shao Feng’s thoughts surged, but he did not show it on his face at all. He probed, “May I know why general manager Zhao is looking for him?”

“It’s like this. I have something to ask him. I’ll have to trouble Master Shao to call him over first. Then, you shall know when the time comes.”

Seeing that general manager Zhao had already said so, Shao Feng naturally could not get to the bottom of it. He could only suppress the doubts in his heart and ask the servants to call Lin Bai out.

Lin Bai thought that the people from the He family were looking for trouble again. After all, they had failed to a.s.sa.s.sinate him twice. He didn’t expect that they would come overtly after they failed to do it in the dark. When he reached the hall, he found that it did not seem to be what he had thought.

Shao Feng saw that Lin Bai was standing where he was and did not respond. He quickly said, “This is general manager Zhao from the City Lord’s Estate.”

Why did the people from the City Lord’s Estate look for him? Lin Bai suddenly remembered that Chen Yan had once mentioned that they were going to the City Lord’s Estate. Could it be that there was some connection between them?

General Manager Zhao did not beat around the bush. He went straight to the point and said, “I heard that you bought a Howling Moon Celestial Wolf from Jin Daya. I hope that you can part with it. We are willing to pay a high price to buy it.”

Shao Feng and the others had heard of Jin Daya’s reputation. Although his price was much cheaper than the auction and there was no need to charge a handling fee, based on the quality of the Howling Moon Celetsial Wolf, the price was not something that an ordinary person could afford.

However, Lin Bai actually had the crystals to buy it. How could they not be surprised?

Lin Bai did not expect that the City Lord’s Estate would come knocking on his door for this matter. He shook his head and said, “Although I really want to agree to it, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf is not with me.”

When the originally amiable general manager Zhao heard this, his expression suddenly changed. “What do you mean by this?”
