Chapter 451: Pay Attention (1/2)

Tang Doudou and Baili Yiling were currently discussing how to start investigating that mysterious person when someone asked to see them.

They shared a glance, then Tang Doudou had that person come in. As they had expected, it was the manservant that guarded the doors of the manor.

”Master and Jun Xin are about to set off, so Yiling, you should go after them!” After the manservant delivered the message, Tang Doudou had him head back first before turning to Baili Yiling.

Baili Yiling had reflexively gotten up the moment the manservant came in, so when she heard what Tang Doudou said, she turned towards Tang Doudou and said in a low voice, ”Sister-in-Law, then I'll be heading off. If you can't handle it, make sure to find Big Brother!”

Tang Doudou nodded. ”Alright, I know. You should hurry and go, otherwise you'll lose them.”

”I hope that I'll be able to come back in time to see the baby born.” Baili Yiling stood up. Although she had been kicking up a fuss about wanted to go, when the time actually came, she felt a little reluctant to leave. She didn't know when she would be able to come back again. By the she came back, the child in Tang Doudou's belly would probably already be grown up.

She was even more afraid that she would come back to find that they were already gone.

”Don't worry, we won't make you wait too long. I'll push your brother to find the blood core stone as soon as possible.” Tang Doudou glanced at the people of the martial arts alliance who were looking at them curiously and gave a cough. ”Let's end things at here for today. You guys should rest up. After I head back and analyze the matter, I'll come back tomorrow to discuss the details with you guys.”

Elder Yu shared a glance with the people next to him, then said, ”Yes, that works. We didn't suffer huge casualties, but it's been tiring these couple of days. I'm sure everyone would appreciate the rest.”

“Alright, then we'll leave now.” Tang Doudou stood up and pulled Baili Yiling with her out of the hall.

When they saw that Tang Doudou was leaving, they all got up and cupped their fists. ”Safe trip, Alliance Head.”

Once they left the courtyard, Baili Yiling asked, ”Sister-in-Law, this is?”

”There are some things that I couldn't really talk about inside.” Tang Doudou glanced behind them. She had already gotten what she wanted to know from what Elder Yu and the others so there was no point in staying any longer. It was better to take advantage of this chance to leave with Baili Yiling.

”Do you have instructions for me?”

Tang Doudou nodded. ”That's right. Yiling, you must be careful while traveling with Senior Dao Xun.”

This thought really had occurred very suddenly to her. She hadn't even had a chance to discuss it with Baili Yu yet, but there was no time so she could only tell Yiling to be careful. As for whether her guess was true or not, only time would tell.

Right after she whispered this in Baili Yiling's ear, Baili Yiling's facial color changed drastically and she asked quietly, ”Sister-in-Law, are you certain?”

”I'm not sure, but if I was, I wouldn't be telling you to be careful and would just tell you not to go.” Tang Doudou patted Baili Yiling's shoulder. ”But don't worry, I'll send people to follow you in secret. If there does turn out to be a danger, remember that your own life is most important. Don't do something hot-headed again. Once I finished investigating this side, I'll tell your brother and have him hurry here.”

Baili Yiling furrowed her brows and thought about things, then said, ”Alright, I'll definitely be careful.”

”I hope that I'm just overthinking things this time.” Tang Doudou sighed again.

”I hope so as well.”

”Alright, let's not delay things any longer. You should head off first. I'll go back to the manor as well to find your brother.” Tang Doudou pushed Baili Yiling to have her hurry and go.

However, Baili Yiling turned back to hug her. ”Sister-in-Law, take care!”

They came as two and returned as two, but it wasn't the same two.

Tang Doudou glanced towards the pretty good-looking manservant next to her and asked, ”Where's your master?”

”After Master sent off Young Master Jun, he left. This little one doesn't know where he went either,” replied the manservant.

Tang Doudou replied with 'oh.'

He headed out? Where to?

She hadn't heard him say that he needed to go anywhere though?

She probably wouldn't be able to find Baili Yu even if she headed back, so since she was already out, she might as well visit the four large clans and see how they were doing right now.

Based on what the martial arts alliance had said, the four large clans had fell to some frightening bugs that made them irascible to the point they attacked everyone in sight. Even Xiao Siyuan, despite his gentle temperament, had hurt people, so their situation was probably much worse than the martial arts alliance's side.

The only thing that puzzled Tang Doudou was the fact that Qing Yin's entire body was filled with wounds left by a beast's bite, but the martial arts alliance didn't mention anything about beasts. They didn't even bring up the fact that Qing Yin had been injured.

There were probably more parts of this that was being concealed.

”There's still another place that I have to go, so you should head back first!” When Tang Doudou's thoughts got to here, she turned around to dismiss the servant.

The servant respectfully bowed to her. ”Master told this little one to follow Madame, so this little one cannot leave.”

He sent a manservant to follow her?

Tang Doudou also copied Baili Yu's manner and narrowed her eyes. ”You can't leave?”

”Replying Madame, those are the instructions that Master left.”

Tang Doudou nodded. ”Alright, then you can follow!”
