Chapter 163.1: Second Majesty (2/2)

“It probably won’t be enough to just rely on Bai Feiyun,” said Yu Fenger worriedly.

Jin Longbiao felt the same as well. He suggested, “Let’s go back to Green Summit Stronghold and disband the group. This way, we won’t have any more family burdens and will be able to participate if we need to raid the execution grounds.”

“Alright!” Yu Fenger agreed with this plan. They packed up, told Wu Li to wait in Bai Courtyard for news from Bai Feiyun and to look after Yuner, then hastily left.

Almost at the same time, Baili Yu, who was in the distant Mist City, found out about this incident.

The jade cup in his fingers shattered into dust with a ‘bang.’ His peach blossom eyes narrowed with an irrepressible chill.

Ye Chuan was inwardly shocked. He had never seen Master express his anger so openly. “Master, should we tell the people in Huai City to save Lady Doudou?”

Baili Yu restrained the chill in his eyes, then got up. Looking into the distance, he said, “I’m going back.”

Ye Chuan was taken aback. “But the matters on this side haven’t been settled yet. If we leave, won’t all our efforts go down the drain?”

“What’s more important than her?” Baili Yu’s gaze was very dark. They actually dared to make such a brazen move. It looked like some people were unable to hold back anymore. If he didn’t go back, everything pointed to disaster for Tang Doudou.

His mind made up, he left Mist City without bothering to inform anyone.

By the time Gu Xun got the news, it had already been three days since Baili Yu left.

“What exactly does Baili Yu mean by this? He ran off, abandoning this rotten piece of business?” Meng Hao angrily smashed the teacup as he complained to Gu Xun.

Gu Xun didn’t speak. After looking at the surface of the pond quietly for a while, he said, “Even if it’s a rotten piece of business, it’s Baili Yu’s own business. We aren’t suffering any losses. At most, the opening of the shops in Five Kilometers Emporium will be postponed. It’s just a bit of business, nothing worth getting angry over.”

“But his damned attitude! He didn’t even notify us! Does he really think he’s all that just because he has money!?”

Wasn’t it precisely that having money was impressive?

Gu Xun glanced at Meng Hao indifferently. This guy only dared to complain like this in front of him. When he was actually in front of Baili Yu, he acted as humble as a grandson.

Perhaps seeing that Gu Xun didn’t harbor the same anger, Meng Hao left unhappily.
