C249 Bai Mansion
"Xue Nv, why hasn't the great general arrived yet?" Xue Nv and Ah Yin escaped from Yue Junqian's pursuit.
Ah Yin had seen it for a long time, but Zhong Jian did not appear.
"Little Princess, I'll take you to a safe place first!" Xue Nv said as she prepared to bring Ah Yin out of the city.
When they reached the city gate, they found that the gate was shut tight and the security was tight.
Seeing this scene, Xue Nv could not help but frown.
"From the looks of it, the people of the Yue Family are already prepared! It's impossible to leave the city now! " Xue Nv said indignantly.
"Then... Where should we go now? " Ah Yin lowered his eyes, a look of confusion on his face.
"Let's find a safe place to hide first, then we can discuss further!" Xue Nv made up her mind on the inside, with a determined look on her face.
Then, she took Ah Yin and avoided the line of sight of the Yue Family disciples, quietly escaping.
As for Lin Yuan and the rest, after leaving the underground palace, they planned to escape out of the city.
When they reached the Golden Snow City, they found that the city was filled with the forces of the Yue Family, they had nowhere to run.
"Everyone is severely injured, if we fight head on, we might not be their match!" Wu Lin frowned as he analyzed the situation.
"I know a place to hide in Golden Snow City!" Tao Le said faintly.
Hearing her say so, everyone turned to look at her.
"I... My first benefactor was called Bai Chenxuan, a famous merchant in the Golden Snow City. All of the resources in the Golden Snow City were provided by the Bai Family! "
When Wu Lin heard Tao Le's words, a strange look surfaced in her eyes.
"It seems that Lady Tao Le is very familiar with this Master Bai!"
Tao Le listened to Wu Lin's weird tone and did not say anything else.
Zhang Tianxuan immediately walked up and pulled Wu Lin's sleeves, then sternly said: "Then I'll be troubling Miss Tao Le to lead the way!"
Hearing Zhang Tianxuan's words, Tao Le smiled and nodded to him, then looked at Wu Lin for a bit, and then turned and walked forward.
"You brat, this lady Tao Yuan has good intentions, why do you always keep spouting cold words!" Zhang Tianxuan glared at Wu Lin angrily.
He then flung his long sleeve and left in a rage.
Wu Lin was left alone behind. Looking at Tao Le's slender figure, he had a strange feeling in his heart.
Soon after, they were led to Bai?s Mansion by Tao Le.
"Let's go in through the back door!"
In order to hide it from the eyes and ears of the disciples of Yue Family, Tao Le suggested.
After that, they turned and went to the back door of the Bai?s Mansion.
At the back door, Taulle stepped forward and knocked on the back corner.
"Creak!" The door was opened a crack and a head peeked out.
It was a girl around sixteen to seventeen years old.
"You ? Who are you? What are you doing in our Bai?s Mansion? " The little girl sized Tao Le up and asked suspiciously.
Hearing her question, Tao Le took out a jade hairpin from her sleeve and handed it over to the little girl.
"Young lady, this is a keepsake from your young master Bai Chenxuan. If you hand it to him, he will know who I am."
The little girl accepted the jade hairpin from Tao Le and studied it. Then she smiled at Tao Le and said: "Alright, please wait here young lady. I will go and report to my young master about the plans."
After that, the little girl closed the door and quickly left.
Wu Lin looked at the keepsake that Tao Le handed to the little girl, a complicated expression suddenly surfaced on her face.
Zhang Tianxuan watched the change in Wu Lin's expression from the side, then walked over and patted his shoulder.
"Kid, sometimes love can hurt a person, do you understand?" Zhang Tianxuan spoke sincerely and earnestly to Wu Lin.
"Big Brother Zhang, I know what you mean, I will restrain myself!" Wu Lin smiled and said to Zhang Tianxuan.
"It's good that you understand!" Zhang Tianxuan looked at Wu Lin with a gratified expression.
Along the way, Zhang Tianxuan realized that Wu Lin had changed a lot.
It was as if he could see himself in Wu Lin's body.
He had experienced betrayal, separation, deceit, and the days of bloodthirst on the blade. As he stumbled along the way, he had finally grown up safe and sound.
After a while, the little girl ran out.
"Miss, my family's Young Master invites you in." The little girl said to Tao Le.
"These are my friends. Can you let them in?" Tao Le pleaded to the little girl.
The little girl looked at the people behind Tao Le hesitantly, then nodded, "Miss, this way please."
Seeing that she had agreed, Tao Le could not help but be happy on the surface, and then followed her into the Horned Gate.
After entering through the corner, an open scenery appeared in front of his eyes.
In the courtyard, there were numerous fake mountains, small bridges, flowing water, and many pavilions. With a single glance, it gave off an extremely refined feeling.
Looking at this Bai?s Mansion, it was indeed impressive, the title of the richest merchant in the Golden Snow City was indeed well-deserved. Zhang Tianxuan secretly thought in his heart.
"Everyone, wait here, my master said it, it's Miss Tao Le."
Arriving at a side courtyard, the little girl stopped Lin Yuan and the others and spoke to them.
When Wu Lin heard the little girl's words, he could not help but lower his face.
He raised his eyes and looked at the little girl coldly, "Hehe ?" "What if we insist on going in?"
When Tao Le heard Wu Lin's words, she could not help but show a trace of worry on her face.
"Wu Lin, you ?" "Don't be like that. Master Bai is an excellent man. He won't do anything to me!"
When Wu Lin heard Tao Le speaking up for a stranger, his heart immediately became angry.
"It seems you know Master Bai very well!" Wu Lin said with a sneer.
Seeing Wu Lin's look of despise, Tao Le's heart could not help but hurt.
She didn't pay any more attention to Wu Lin. Instead, she followed the little girl into the courtyard.
When he arrived at the courtyard, before he even stepped into the house, he could faintly hear the sound of a zither.
When Tao Le heard the music that sounded like the chirping of birds in an empty valley, her originally angry heart became a lot calmer.
"Miss, my family's young master is inside. You can go in." The little girl said to Tao Le.
Then, Tao Le slowly walked into the house.
The furnishings inside the room were very elegant. There was a faint fragrance in the air, and the glazed floor gave off a clear echo with every step.
Bai Chenxuan, who was sitting in the main house, stopped strumming his zither after hearing the soft footsteps, and raised his head to look at Tao Le.
"Miss Tao Le, do you like the song I just spoke about, 'Phoenix Prayer Phoenix'?"
When Bai Chenxuan saw Tao Le's elegant figure, the corner of her mouth couldn't help but curl into a gentle smile.
"Master Bai's zither skills are amazing. It is truly an honor for me to hear you play."
Tao Le blessed Bai Chenxuan and said with a gentle smile.
"May I know the reason for this lady's visit to the Bai?s Mansion today?" Bai Chenxuan got up from his seat and walked in front of Tao Le.
His figure was extremely tall, and when he neared Tao Le, he gave Tao Le a bit of a oppressive feeling.
"I... I have something to ask for Master Bai's help. " A difficult expression surfaced on Tao Le's face as he said to Bai Chenxuan.
"Miss, let's talk about it when we get to our seats."
Bai Chenxuan said to Tao Le gently.
Lin Yuan and the rest waited outside the door for a long time, but they did not see Tao Le.
Wu Lin could not help but be anxious, he did not know what was happening inside.
After thinking about it, he wanted to rush into the courtyard.
When the little girl saw this situation, she immediately stood in front of him, a cold expression on her face. "Young master, without my young master's order, no one is allowed to trespass!"
When Wu Lin saw the little girl obstructing him, a trace of impatience appeared on his face.
He said coldly to the little girl, "Get out of my way!"
The girl remained indifferent.
Wu Lin acted as if he wanted to charge forward, but he did not expect that he would be slapped by the little girl.
Caught off guard, he took a few steps back in a flash.
Wu Lin could not help but reveal a peculiar expression. He did not expect that this little girl, who looked as if Qing Zhi was not yet dead, actually knew martial arts! He was too careless earlier.
Wu Lin then held onto the sword tightly and rushed towards the little girl once again. Seeing that, Zhang Tianxuan immediately stood in front of Wu Lin to protect him.
"Wu Lin, what are you doing!" Zhang Tian Quan reprimanded Wu Lin.
"Big Brother Zhang, I am worried about Miss Tao Le ?"
While he was speaking, Tao Le had already walked out of the courtyard.
Following closely was Bai Chenxuan.0
Wu Lin then turned his gaze to Bai Chenxuan's body.
It was a person with a slender figure and a jade-like face. As he chatted and laughed, he revealed the elegance of a gentleman.
Seeing Bai Chenxuan's outstanding temperament, Wu Lin could not help but feel a tinge of jealousy in his heart.
Zhang Tianxuan who was at the side was naturally able to see through Wu Lin's thoughts, he walked forward and quietly pulled on his sleeves, and said softly: "Don't be impulsive."
"Everyone, this is the friend I mentioned to you, Master Bai, Bai Chenxuan." Tao Le pointed at Bai Chenxuan and introduced to the crowd.
"You must all be Miss Tao Le's friends." Bai Chenxuan said to everyone with a slight smile on his face.
"Miss Tao Le has told me about your situation. Since all of you have come to seek refuge with me, I will naturally do my best to help."
Lin Yuan walked forward and bowed to Bai Chenxuan, "Thank you brother for saving my life!"
"Everyone, please come in!" Bai Chenxuan made a gesture of invitation and said to them.
Soon after, everyone entered the courtyard under Bai Chenxuan's lead.
"I will arrange a room for all of you later. Please rest assured, you all can stay in the Bai?s Mansion. If the Yue Family comes to investigate, I, Bai, will take care of it!"
"Big Brother Bai, thank you. I've troubled you so much this time!" Tao Le said with an apologetic expression.
When Wu Lin saw her expression, he became depressed.
