He swiftly turned around and headed back. It dawned on him that the family head had neglected to inform him where to find them.
“Family Head, where should we look for them?” Wu Tian inquired, his expression perplexed.
After driving them away, he had lost track of their whereabouts. If he were to search for them now, who knew where they could be?
“The Bai family,” the head of the Wu family impatiently replied.
“The Bai family? Why would they go to the Bai family? Could it be that the Bai family took them in? The Bai family doesn’t strike me as the kind-hearted sort.” Wu Tian voiced his doubts.
“If I tell you to go, then go!” The Wu family’s master couldn’t be bothered to engage in further conversation, resorting to direct reprimand.
Wu Tian quivered, refraining from further inquiries. He hastily departed.
At the Bai family’s residence.
Why would the Bai family take them in, given their unsavory reputation?
Wu Tian found himself even more bewildered.
Upon their arrival at the Bai family’s compound, he unexpectedly encountered Bai Ruiguang.
“Rui Guang, where are Zimo and Ziming?” Wu Tian inquired.
Bai Ruiguang cast him a nonchalant glance, paying him no mind whatsoever.
His own cultivation was average, and his two sons didn’t even possess testable spiritual roots. He was met with little respect within the Wu family, let alone in the presence of the Bai family.
It seemed Bai Ruiguang was already aware of the Bai family’s involvement when he arrived today.
For the time being, it seemed implausible to bring them back to the Wu family.
“Uncle Wu, please return. Since your Wu family has already driven them away, let them have some peace and refrain from disturbing them any further. If there’s anything to discuss, we can address it later. Today is not an opportune time,” Bai Ruiguang declared.
He signaled to his attendant to escort Wu Tian out, wearing a faint smile upon his face.
He had been concerned about finding a suitable occasion to converse with him, and now seemed to be the perfect moment.
Bai Ruiguang approached the entrance of the two courtyards.
Upon reaching the door, Sword One warily inquired, “Who are you?”
Bai Ruiguang responded with a warm smile upon seeing Sword One. “I am Bai Ruiguang, the Young Master of the Bai Family. I have something to discuss with your master, or perhaps Zimo and Ziming are here as well.”
At the Bai family’s residence.
Sword One sought instructions first.
Gu Chaoyan emerged from the courtyard and asked Dao Seeking, “What’s the matter? Zimo and Ziming are currently unavailable to see anyone.”
“It’s like this. Just now, their father, Wu Tian, came to the Bai family, expressing his desire to see them. Given what transpired today, I initially prevented him from doing so. However, in light of the recent events, I believe it’s important to inform Zimo and the others,” Bai Ruiguang explained.
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
“They are immersed in their cultivation and cannot be disturbed by visitors during this period.” Gu Chaoyan replied.
“Cultivation?” Bai Ruiguang appeared slightly surprised. He then continued, “Zimo and Ziming underwent testing on the Spirit Testing Platform. Their spiritual roots weren’t particularly remarkable, so it’s likely that cultivating would be twice as effective for them.’
“Lady, you have previously visited Haitian Market and possess a high cultivation level, indicating your exposure to the wider world. If you require any a.s.sistance, I am willing to lend a hand. Although you have exchanged your belongings for this courtyard, our Bai family has indeed received a significant favor. It is only fair for us to offer our support.”
Gu Chaoyan furrowed her brows, feeling a hint of irritation.
She acknowledged that her own conspicuous actions had led to this situation..
