Chapter 863: Chapter 233-The High Rise of the Ruins (5)
“You don’t understand. This is what style is.” Director Mu placed his hands behind his back and returned to his seat. He picked up the brush and thought for a moment before putting it down.
Xu Bai wanted to leave a fist mark on Director Mu’s face, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate. He could only open the letter.
He finally understood why Eunuch Wei and Director Mu did not get along. Director Mu’s every word and action was really a headache.
Enduring this headache, Xu Bai read the contents of the letter and quickly forgot what had just happened. He frowned and read it carefully.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Xu Bai put down the letter in his hand, his expression especially solemn.
“According to your letter, not only have there been many strange incidents recently, but there have also been more ruins than before?”
This was roughly what the letter meant. It said that in the past month, nearly 30 ruins had appeared in the entire Great Chu. In other words, there was an average of one every day.
Although the Great Chu Country was very large, the frequency of such a small number of people appearing was not high. However, in the past, there was not such a high frequency. Compared to the past, the frequency was much higher.
“What’s going on?” Xu Bai asked.
Right now, he placed great importance on the remains. He really wanted to get to the bottom of the matter regarding the remains. After all, the Chu Emperor had previously mentioned in his letter that his identity, or to put it bluntly, some of the secrets of his golden finger, were very likely to be hidden in the remains.
If it was something else, he might not be very interested, but the matter of the cheat greatly increased his interest.
In the past, he did not have the strength and did not have the opportunity to understand. Now that he had clues, he naturally wanted to understand.
“I don’t know.” “It might be a good thing for us,” said Director Mu.”
“Not only can we obtain more resources from it, but we can also understand what happened at that time.”
“The reason why I showed it to you is to let you be prepared. Since the Barbarians were beaten down, there has only been one incident with the Barbarians, but we found that it is gradually spreading.”
Xu Bai put the letter back on the table and nodded, indicating that he understood.
Since he had already received the news, he didn’t plan to stay any longer. He had to go back and look for his failure to become a saint.
However, since he was already here, he was naturally not in a hurry to go back. After going to Eunuch Wei’s place, he drank with Eunuch Wei again before bidding farewell and leaving.
By the time he returned to the palace, it was already very late.
“I haven’t been with them for so long. I’ll spend the night with them tonight.”
Xu Bai chuckled and rubbed his hands together before walking towards the place where Chu Ling and Ye Zi were resting…
The next day.
Xu Bai got up with the help of the two girls. Ye Zi helped Xu Bai wash up.
Chu Ling was lying in Xu Bai’s embrace, gently leaning against his chest.
“Tired?” Xu Bai lowered his head and looked at Chu Ling, who still had some fatigue on her face.
Chu Ling nodded and shook her head,”There are too many things to deal with every day. Fortunately, I have Sister Ye Zi to help me. Moreover, these various institutions have been improving recently.”
Xu Bai smiled and patted Chu Ling’s head.”Sometimes, since you have made a decision to sit in this position, you must pay the price.”
Chu Ling softly hummed in agreement and buried her head in Xu Bai’s chest, not saying a word.
On the other side, Ye Zi slowly stood up.”Husband, I’ve already washed up.”
Xu Bai hummed in agreement and patted Chu Ling’s back.””Today, I will make a trip to the Miao Sect.”
The two women didn’t say anything. They didn’t care what Xu Bai did because they would support him unconditionally.
Xu Bai didn’t say anything more and left.
He had to hurry up. If he could successfully get the experience of failing to become a saint, he had to finish the progress bar as soon as possible.
After Xu Bai left, the two girls looked at each other and were speechless.
Between Chu Ling’s brows, there was still exhaustion.
“Sister, I’ll help you deal with the recent matters. You can rest assured and recuperate.”Ye Zi said gently.
Chu Ling thought for a while, then raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, emitting a lazy aura.”That’s good. This way, I can rest for a while.”
She seemed to be very tired, but because she had already been conferred the title of king, she had already become an Extraordinary expert the moment she was conferred the title of king. No matter how tired she was, she should not have been unable to recover overnight.
Moreover, as the land of the barbarians was getting better and better, her strength was also steadily improving. It was even more impossible for such a situation to happen.
When Ye Zi saw Chu Ling’s current state, she said with slight worry,”Sister, why don’t you tell husband about this? If husband knows, he will be very happy.”
Chu Ling shook her head again,” My husband has been in the treasury every day these days. He is very busy with his closed-door cultivation. If I tell my husband about this, he will be very happy. However, it will disrupt his plans.”
When Ye Zi heard this, she lowered her head and looked at Chu Ling’s lower abdomen.”But…You can’t hide this for long…”
