Wu Yunfei groped his way to his grandfather's office. It was morning, but Wu Hong was already there. However, he didn't do anything. He just sat on the chair, deep in thought.
Wu Yunfei was also moved when he saw this old man. Although he and Wu Hong had not interacted much since Wu Yunfei came to this world, he still felt that this old man cared about him, especially his father.
”It seems like grandpa has always had something on his mind!” With Wu Yunfei's original memories, he also remembered that Wu Hong always had something on his mind. It was just that he never mentioned it to anyone, but many people knew what it was like, and even Wu Yunfei had some guesses about it. Perhaps it was related to his parents.
”Perhaps I really do hope that he can come back to the family meeting and prepare a chair for father.” Wu Yunfei thought.
Looking at the old man's state, Wu Yunfei pondered deeply. As matters stood, Wu Yunfei lacked an explanation for many things. There seemed to be many reasons, and all of these reasons pointed to one person — his father, Wu Zongyun.
”I don't have any leads here, so I'll have to go somewhere else to check it out!” Wu Yunfei leaped up again. He was extremely careful, and with the protection of the black jade, the time he could temporarily shield his presence had increased by a lot. Through last night's arrangement, he knew that his black jade was an extremely mysterious piece of jade. Not only did it have space, many Profound Qi stones, and also Qing Yu who was in the Profound Qi Stone. Thus, he gave it a try and it really worked.
”Let's go to Wu Zongren's place!” Wu Yunfei muttered to himself. After all, Wu Yunfei was the one who planned the assassination attempt on Wu Yunfei two years ago. Wu Yunfei would take advantage of Wu Zongren's protection to check it out.
After making a few turns and avoiding a lot of people, Wu Yunfei also arrived at Wu Zongren's residence. After holding his breath, he peeked his head into a hidden corner of the room to check on the situation inside. In the blink of an eye, Wu Yunfei discovered that Wu Zongren was not inside the house.
Wu Yunfei drew back his head and leaned against the wall.
After a while, the door opened. From the sound of the footsteps, three people walked into the room.
”Chief, there's really something wrong right now!” This was Wu Long's voice! Wu Yunfei would never be mistaken.
Patriarch? Wu Zongren was already the head of the family and his grandfather had also left. Wu Yunfei thought.
”The He Clan has been forced into a corner. For the past two years, our Wu Clan has been suppressed like a mad dog. But who knows, they won't go crazy again. ” This was Wu Zongyi's voice.
”That's right. Our Wu Clan's black jade industry and other businesses outside have suffered a great blow. If this continues, it will not be good for either of us. We need to find a way to solve this problem.” Wu Long said.
There was still one person who remained silent. Wu Yunfei guessed that the person who remained silent should be Wu Zongren.
Wu Zongyi continued: ”I suspect that what happened two years ago was really a waste of us doing. We did not steal the chicken but instead ate the rice. Who would have thought that Wu Zongyun actually did not appear!”
Wu Zongren opened his mouth, ”Although fifth brother did not appear, it is something worth celebrating. For some reason, those people disappeared all of a sudden last year. But we cannot guarantee that they will not come again! ”
”Those people disappeared?” Wu Yunfei muttered in his heart, it's really those people again!
”As for killing Wu Yunfei, it's fine if you kill him. There's nothing to be regretful about!” The Martial Ancestor Realm expert's tone was cold, as if killing a person had no effect on him, even if it was someone from the Wu Clan.
Wu Yunfei frowned. Even if you all did this for the Wu family, to kill me and deal with his father like this is still unforgivable. Especially after hearing those extremely cold words!
As for the people behind this, Wu Yunfei would naturally think of ways to find them and figure out their origins. As for these few people, Wu Yunfei was already completely disappointed in them.
The people who had disappeared, even Wu Zongren and the others didn't know that Wu Yunfei didn't need to stay here any longer, so he quietly left the place and headed towards his residence.
”Ninth Young Master! ”You're back!” It seemed like both of them had been waiting for this moment. Shuang'er saw Wu Yun flying in and stood up from her chair with a smile on her face as she faced the returning Wu Yunfei.
”Yes, we can go now. The Wu Clan no longer has anything for me to do. We can leave now.” Right now, he was quite far from Wu Ling City, and it would take a lot of time to get there. After all, the competition for the placings was about to begin, and Wu Yunfei was considered lucky to be able to make it in time for the selection when he woke up.
”Ninth Young Master …” After Wu Yunfei said that he was about to leave, Shuang'er felt a little sad. She thought that Wu Yunfei, who had died two years ago, suddenly came back last night and now he was leaving again. After all, she had been waiting for Wu Yunfei all these years.
Wu Yunfei looked at this naive and kind girl, feeling touched in his heart. In the entire Wu family, there were not many people who could be yearned for him, but Shuang'er was still one of those people he cared about. However, Wu Yunfei had no choice but to walk out.
”… …”
After leaving the Martial House, the two of them rode their spirit horses and galloped towards the direction of Wu Ling City.
Both of them were wearing bamboo hats, and Wu Yunfei was afraid of being recognized by others. Before they left Black Jade Town, he had been wearing them, but because Qing Yu was too dazzling, Wu Yunfei was also wearing a bamboo hat while covering his face. Wu Yunfei was sure that if he were to expose this woman, it would cause a lot of trouble.
In only half a day's time, they left Black Jade Town. After they left Black Jade Town, Wu Yunfei put away his bamboo hat. At this point, no one would recognize him, at least the chances of them meeting him were much smaller. On the other hand, Qing Yu had to always wear it because no matter where she went, she would always be extremely dazzling.
They coincidentally arrived at a small town called Tongyin. Although this town was small, it had all sorts of basic knowledge. Wu Yunfei and his son asked for two rooms at the same inn.
