Chapter 179: It’s a Fortuitous Encounter, not a Disaster (1/2)
Ying Lan read the Phoenix King Valley’s invitation card carefully. He might not be able to infer anything from it, but his brows were locked tightly together. He didn’t know what the Phoenix King Valley wanted to do to his mistress.
“Why? Is there something wrong?” When Bai Luochu saw Ying Lan’s brows locked together tightly, she thought that there was something fishy with the invitation.
Ying Lan shook his head, “This subordinate is slow-witted and doesn’t know what the Phoenix King Valley is scheming in the dark.”
For a moment, Ying Lan’s study room was filled with nothing but silence. After a long time, Ying Lan finally spoke up.
“Mistress, could it be that Phoenix King Valley saw through your reincarnation? They might be trying to...” Before Ying Lan finished his statement, his meaning was already very obvious. No matter what, the Phoenix King Valley’s invitation was due to their bad intentions.
“I don’t think they know that I’m Bai Luochu yet.” Bai Luochu commented.
Ying Lan’s brows arched upwards and he replied with a question of his own, “Mistress, why do you think so?”
“Give me a moment. Get me pen and paper. I will list down the pros and cons before explaining it to you.”
Bai Luochu wrote her name down in the center of the paper and she started to separate the lists of people and incidents. When she was done, there were lines and remarks everywhere, causing Ying Lan’s head to ache when he looked at the paper.
Bai Luochu took another piece of paper and wrote down three things: 1. Green Flame Eagle, 2. Divine Physician Bai, 3. Luo Chu. Bai Luochu turned the paper around and placed it in front of Ying Lan. When she saw his confused expression, she explained, “After pondering over the reasons and connections, these three reasons on the paper are probably why the Phoenix King Valley is looking for me.”
“Now that my identity as the Divine Physician Bai can no longer be concealed, they should assume that I am the one who abducted the Green Flame Eagle. Seeing as how I snatched the duck in their mouth, they are here to take it back. Furthermore, I am someone who seems like an incredible person in their eyes for making the spirit beast follow me without any effort. They might be thinking of using me to tame the Green Flame Eagle younglings for them.”
“As for the second reason... It is my identity as Divine Physician Bai. The Phoenix King Valley might have caused a serious setback to our temple during the Battle of Thousand Brilliance, but their losses aren’t negligible. Of course they want someone like me to help them refine medicine. Looking at these two reasons, it is no wonder that they sent me an invitation.”
