Although she didn't intend to hide it, Ling Xuewei still deceived Bai Lichen, which is not good after all.
"When did you know?" Ling Xuewei asked somewhat sarcastically.
"Last time, when you asked about the Rong family in Back Mountain, I became suspicious. Later, I found the three of them in Baima Town and I was sure."
Ling Xuewei opened her mouth.
So early?
She thinks she doesn’t have any flaws!
How did Baili Chen figure it out?
But... forget it, since Bai Lichen already knew it, there was no need for her to hide it.
"I accidentally rescued the three of them, father and son, in Liang City. But at that time, I didn't know their identities. It wasn't until later when I heard you talking about the Rong family that I guessed it."
She sighed in her heart. To be honest, if she had known their identities at that time and that they had such a lot of trouble behind them, she would not have taken action at all.
But now the deal is done, it's too late to say anything.
"I'm sorry for hiding it from you. It's just that I don't want this matter to implicate you. After all, they are fugitives now. There are still so many sects in the temple chasing them. You are the leader of Yunyin Sect. If people know that you are related to
They have something to do with you, which is not good for you."
In fact, Bai Lichen would not fail to understand these principles.
But Ling Xuewei couldn't figure out why he would take action?
"You don't need to apologize. I had my reasons for taking action."
Ling Xuewei was surprised.
What does he mean by this?
Just be honest and explain more.
"The people of the Thousand Emperors Sect will not give up if they cannot find them. If they do not divert their attention, no matter where they escape, they will not be safe."
"did you mean……"
"Leave this matter to me. You take them to a safe place and settle them down, and then make plans after the news passes." Bai Lichen said.
Ling Xuewei wondered why Bai Lichen would take such a desperate risk to help Rong Batian.
Seeming to see her doubts, Bai Lichen said calmly, "After the Rong family was loyal, Rong Batian was also a person who shocked everyone, and he had his own pride. The foundation of the Yunyin sect is worthy of the heart. I just can't bear to let the hero do this.
It’s just withering. Besides..."
Besides?
Ling Xuewei was confused, why didn't you say anything?
What Bai Lichen didn't finish talking about was that the upper echelons of the temple who took action against him were also in opposition to the Yunyin Sect. Once they obtained the Fengyun Order and their power grew, there was no guarantee that the Yunyin Sect would not be the next to take action.
After all, for so many years, they have been secretly supporting the Thousand Emperors Sect and regard the Yunyin Sect as a thorn in their side. Therefore, they will both be prosperous and suffer losses.
Bai Lichen did not tell Ling Xuewei these words.
Now is not the time.
The whirlpool here was too deep, and he didn't want Ling Xuewei to get involved too soon. Even after saving Rong Batian and the others...
A trace of complexity flashed in Bai Lichen's eyes, "No matter what, you must remember to act within your capabilities."
Leaving behind these specious words, he left.
Ling Xuewei was confused when she heard it, she seemed to understand, but she didn't seem to understand.
This man's words are becoming increasingly difficult to understand.
However, Ling Xuewei could tell from Bai Lichen's words that the Yunyin Sect had at least a good attitude towards the Rong family.
…
"That one is gone?"
Rong Batian looked at Ling Xuewei's returning figure and his mood calmed down.
"Um."
Although Ling Xuewei didn't say much, he could probably guess that that person... must have changed his appearance, otherwise he wouldn't have a strange expression before.
But who is he? With such skill, he was able to escape unharmed from that E Ji's hands. He is definitely not an unknown person.
"Sir, where are Mu'er and Xia'er?"
"I placed them before I came out. They are safe now. You can talk to them. I guess they are also worried about you."
Rong Batian nodded and went to contact Rong Mu and the others.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Don't worry, my father is fine. It was the young master who saved me."
"You guys stay safe and don't move around until we go back."
"Well, my father knows..."
…
After a while, the communication ended.
Rong Batian came back, and Ling Xuewei glanced at him, "Let's rest for half a day, and we'll go back in the evening."
Before I knew it, it was dawn.
It is easier to be exposed if you act during the day, or it is easier to hide your whereabouts at night when you take advantage of the darkness.
It's just... I don't know what Bai Lichen said to divert his attention?
At this time, a groan came from the ground, and it turned out that Tan Ji had woken up.
"Tan Ji, are you awake? What's wrong?"
"The head of the family..."
"Hahaha! Just wake up! Just wake up! I have told you so many times, call me Ba Tian, I am no longer the head of the Rong family..."
Rong Batian's voice was low. Seeing that he was about to get up, he hurriedly supported him and said, "Don't be brave, you can't move now."
Tan Ji sat up, looking a little excited, "Why are you back again? It's too dangerous! If something happens, my subordinates will be responsible for their death! Ahem..."
"Don't be excited, am I okay? Okay, at least you can save some face for me in front of the young master..."
The two of them got along very well, and it seemed like they were old friends.
Although Tan Ji calls himself a subordinate, the concern in his eyes cannot be faked.
"Young Master is making me laugh. Tan Ji hasn't thanked you yet for saving your life..." As he was about to stand up and salute, Ling Xuewei hurriedly stopped him, "I don't need this false courtesy."
"No! The etiquette cannot be abolished! What's more, you are still the benefactor of me and the head of the family!"
As he spoke, Tanji made a serious salute.
Although this man is a man of the world, he sticks to etiquette deep down, but he is so wild on the outside, which is really not in line with his temperament.
To put it simply, he is a contradictory person.
"You, you haven't changed at all after all this time."
Rong Batian said at the side, helping him sit back down again. Just the previous salute made Tan Ji break out in cold sweat, and it took him a long time to recover.
After telling him what happened last night and how they escaped, Tan Ji was even more grateful when he learned that Ling Xuewei fought to the death for each other.
"By the way, have those batches of materials arrived?"
"It's already here, I've always carried it with me!" Tan Ji said, his palm flashed, and a spiritual ring appeared, "It's all inside."
"That's great. Young Master, here are the things you asked for. Unfortunately, the time is too short, so this is all we have for the time being."
Rong Batian came here just for Ling Xuewei's materials, but he didn't expect that he would be discovered by people from the Thousand Emperors Sect, which would lead to everything that happened next.
Ling Xuewei took it and scanned it with her spiritual consciousness. She found that the spiritual ring space was about 500 square meters and was almost full. There were boxes upon boxes, densely packed.
This amount has far exceeded her expectations!
only……
"Um... can the crystal be given to you in two days?"
Ling Xuewei has been living for so long, and this is the first time she is in such embarrassment. There is no way, a penny can't help the heroic man. She currently has less than 100,000 yellow crystals in her pocket, and even adding red crystals and orange crystals is far from enough.
