201 How Dare You Hit Me? (1/2)
Master Bai watched the bamboo forest shook and slowly stopped frowning. He said softly, ”No matter what happens in the coming three days, I don't want to be disturbed... I need to relax and calm myself down.”
[The more intense things are, the more relaxed I need to be. I guess I should give myself a vacation...] Master Bai smiled casually, [Even though the pressures are all on my shoulder, if I don't care, who can compel me to?]
Thinking about that, he suddenly laughed loudly. He seemed to be extremely relaxed at the moment.
At the night, Ye Xiao was cultivating, and so was Song Jue. Wan Zhenghao and others were also cultivating.
The moon was bright in the sky. Its glow had lit up the whole world. It was a bright moon.
The moon remained the same until Ye Xiao got out in the latter part of the night. In fact... the moon kept being bright for a whole night.
The strangest thing was that no matter who was cultivating that night, when they stopped, they would realize that their cultivation had improved so much faster than before.
After cultivating one night, they were improved like they had been cultivating for ten days.
It was weird, but they all kept it a secret in mind and didn't want to tell anybody.
They thought it was their great fortune after all, so they wouldn't want to let others know. It would just draw jealousy.
There was another thing that happened that night.
The whole family of Wang Danian, the head of the guards in the Crown Prince's Palace, got wiped out, including their servants.
No one survived.
All dead bodies were placed tidily in their yard.
Wang Danian's face was in extreme horror. It seemed he had been terrified badly before he died.
There were lots of wounds on his body. His inner organs were all ripped into pieces.
Apparently, the murderer or murderers were questioning him before they killed him.
Nobody knew what the murderer wanted to know, and nobody knew how Wan Danian answered. It stayed as an unsolved mystery.
At the noon of the next day, the news about Wang Danian's death finally spread out.
For other families, most of them would just sigh. Some of them were gloating and they incensed to their ancestors to celebrate - finally, another monster vanished...
[Wang Danian must have messed with someone he should never did. Otherwise, how could he die so miserably?]
The Crown Prince showed a totally different attitude when he heard about it.
He jumped up from the chair and his face suddenly turned pale.
”What... Anybody knows who did it?”
”Anybody knows what the murderer asked Wang Danian?”
When he asked the two questions, he was heavily sweating.
He knew that there was something that if Wang Danian told to others, it would lead to a severe consequence.
However, nobody could answer him.
Maybe there was someone who had the answers, and it was whoever killed the whole family of Wang Danian.
However, the murderer would never answer him after all.
The Crown Princess stood aside coldly and said blandly, ”Even if the murderer did get to know the truth about your dirty secret, so what? It might not be someone of the House of Ye. In fact, even if it was, so what? Don't forget that no matter how strong that man is, he is merely an underling of the Kingdom of Chen. And you, you are the noble heir of the throne, the kin of the dragons, the Crown Prince. I don't understand what you are so afraid of?”
