C374 Bet?
Lin Ruoxi smiled brilliantly, but Su Bai had a face full of suspicions.
"Miss Lin, have we met before?"
Lin Ruoxi was startled, she did not think that Su Bai would actually say such words, and laughed: "Inspector Su has always been in Jinling, and I am in the capital, so of course we have not met, but …"
Her voice changed as she sized Su Baishi up with a peculiar look in her eyes.
"Although I have never seen Inspector Su before, I have long heard of Inspector Su's great name, especially that good sister of mine. She seems to be very concerned about Inspector Su!" When I came to Jinling this time, she secretly instructed me to see if you had returned safely … "
Lin Ruoxi blinked her large eyes and continued to speak as she looked at Su Bai with a face full of smiles: "Now that Inspector Su has returned safely, that girl should be relieved!"
Amidst Su Bai's silence, a beautiful figure flashed across his heart.
He chuckled and said: "Miss Lin, there's no need to be so polite. You can just call me Su Bai."
"If you go back and see Miss Xia this time, thank her for her concern. Also, tell her that my sister's injuries have completely healed!"
Lin Ruoxi looked at Su Bai for a long time before suddenly letting out a snort.
"It seems like it wasn't for nothing that Drifting Water was concerned about you. To think that he would be able to guess that it was her."
"But, do you think that I'm the messenger? Humph! If you have anything to say, just say it to her face. I don't want to be the middleman! "
Su Bai laughed and said: "Alright, next time if I go to the capital, I will personally thank Miss Xia."
"Miss Xia?" Lin Ruoxi frowned: "Su Bai, what do you mean by that? In order to save you, Bu Yu took Uncle Feng's Venerable One token and even went against the orders of the family's elders to come to Jinling.
Su Bai was slightly taken aback, as if he couldn't understand what was wrong.
Even though he was a person from two lifetimes, and furthermore, in his previous life, he was a heaven-defying Hierarch Hao Tian, his emotional experience was nearly blank. He did not understand a single thing about a woman's heart.
Su Bai lightly shook his head and did not care about Lin Ruoxi's attitude. Since he was Xia Qianyu's best friend, he could still be considered to be his friend.
"Miss Lin, I don't know how to explain why you're saying this, but how do I address Miss Xia? This is between me and the Miss Xia, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Miss Lin, right?"
"You …"
Lin Ruoxi scoffed, and did not continue to talk about this topic, but in her heart, she felt that it was not worth it.
"If Miss Lin has nothing else, then I will take my leave!"
After Su Bai finished speaking, he immediately wanted to leave, but before he could do anything, he saw Lin Ruoxi blocking in front of him: "Wait!"
"Miss Lin, is there anything else?"
Lin Ruoxi took a deep breath, suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, and said: "Su Bai, I am representing my Master, inviting you to report to the Heavenly Palace in the capital!"
"Repeat?"
Su Bai frowned, "Do I still need to report on my work?"
"Don't forget, you are the Inspector Jiang Nan from the Heavenly Palace of China. As the head of the s, naturally, we have the authority to request you to go to the Heavenly Palace to report on your duty."
"No!"
Su Bai rejected his bluntly.
"You dare to disobey orders? You are the Inspector General of the Heavenly Palace, and thus, you have to accept the orders of the Heavenly Palace! " Lin Ruoxi's face turned ugly.
With China and the presence of the Divine Realm, no one dared to disobey the palace elder's orders.2
At first, Su Bai didn't care about Xia Qianyu, but now his face turned cold.
"Miss Lin, please step aside! Right now, I am not interested in going to the Heavenly Palace in the capital. If I have the time in the future, I might be able to visit them myself.
"Also, do not use your status as the Heavenly Palace's Inspector General to pressure me. From now on, I am no longer a member of your Heavenly Palace."
With his status in the Hierarch Hao Tian, how could he accept orders from someone else, even if that person was the strongest Palace Honored Warrior in the Heavenly Palace!
Not far away, Lin Boren raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not say anything, allowing Lin Ruoxi to hit a wall.
Tang Qiubai and Shen Daoru, on the other hand, looked as though they didn't see anything.
Powerful, overbearing, and uncompromising, this was Su Bai.
Just as the atmosphere became tense, a soft chuckle was suddenly heard.
"Hehe, Su Bai is truly a proud and unyielding person. Tang Tian Palace Patrol Officer position, just saying and throwing it away, this old man admires you!"
Dressed in a gray robe, Hsing Xiushen and a few others slowly walked over. They looked at Su Bai and said, "It's just so-so, but at our level, everything in the mortal world is no longer important. What's not important is crossing that last step and stepping into the Divine Realm!"
"Humph!" That old man is still obsessed with worldly power right now. If he continues like this, it will be difficult for him to break through to the God Realm even after ten years! "
Lin Ruoxi stared at Hsing Xiushen, as though she was facing a great enemy. This old man was too terrifying, she had not sensed him approaching her just now.
One had to know that she was now in the Perfection Stage, and her perception was extremely sharp. For this elder to be able to come so close to her without making a sound, this kind of strength, was absolutely terrifying.
"Who are you?"
Hsing Xiushen did not answer, but looked at her, and laughed: "You are the disciple of the old demon Gong, no wonder you were able to step into the Perfection Stage at such an age. It seems like the old ghost Gong has put quite a bit of effort into this."
With that, he laughed, looking at Lin Boren who had an extremely shocked expression, he laughed: "Brother Lin, after so many years of not seeing each other, you are still getting stronger, your cultivation is even higher than before ah!"
Lin Boren never thought that Hsing Xiushen would actually appear here, and at the same time, at the same place as Bai Zewen. His thoughts spun, and he said with a smile as well, "I've long heard that Brother Xing reached China. I never expected that we would meet each other here today."
He paused for a moment before introducing to Lin Ruoxi: "This is the 'Thousand Handle' Hsing Xiushen that was famous for shaking China back then. Back then, even I was defeated by him! Today, I can see that Brother Xing isn't far from the Divine Realm. This rate of improvement is truly embarrassing! "
Hsing Xiushen waved his hand: "It's not worth mentioning! It was just that after living in seclusion in the ocean for many years, compared to young genius grandmasters like little friend Su Bai, it was really extremely stupid. "
Judging from Hsing Xiushen's expression and words, if one did not know what was going on, then from the looks of it, the relationship between the two seemed to be very good. In reality, however, the two were enemies of life and death.
Su Bai laughed indifferently, and did not say a word.
At this time, Bai Zewen, who had been silent all this time, frowned and asked Su Bai: "Su Bai, is the 'Black Jade Branch' that you just bid for still here? I am willing to offer ten million for a repurchase, is Su Bai willing?"
Su Bai raised his eyebrows, and looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot: "Are you sure you're not spouting nonsense?"
An item bought with a hundred million, you reclaim ten million?
Bai Zewen laughed faintly: "It's just a withered branch. Even though it contains a little bit of spirit energy, it's at most a precious medicine! It's worth at most a few million. To be able to give you ten million is already giving you face! "
"Have you thought about it? I'm still willing to recover it now, but if I change my mind later, the 100 million spirit medicine you have will be wasted!"
Hearing that, Su Bai looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, "Bai Family Master, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
Bai Zewen frowned, "What's the wager?"
"Let's bet on this branch of mine and that Nine Rootlet Ginseng King of yours. Who has the highest actual value?!"
