Chapter 1190: For the High Priest?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Despite what Yan Feng had said, Bai Ze was not accompanying Master Bai in the meeting hall.
Master Bai looked very nervous. If someone shook his hands now, they would find his palms covered in sweat.
His tongue was probably all tangled up, so talking to Bai Ze was out of the question.
Bai Ze’s gaze shifted slowly from Master Bails anxious face to the gift trays he had brought. Despite being unable to discern the contents beneath the velvet blankets, judging by his demeanor, Bai Ze a.s.sumed the gifts were probably of high quality.
Master Bai was certainly generous with his gifts for his trouble-making son.
He wondered when Master Bai’s att.i.tude towards Jun Lin Hall had become so respectful. He used to act like an elder when interacting with Qian Jiyun.
However, he brought so many things here upon hearing that Bai Yue had been locked up today. It was odd!
“Uncle Bai, why did you bring so many things here? Young Master Bai is fine,” Bai Ze reminded him, looking at him indifferently.
He was certain that An Jiuyue would not keep Bai Yue imprisoned in the iron prison for Qian Jiyun’s sake. She would, at most, teach him a lesson.
Yet Master Bai had brought all of these things at great expense!
“We have everything we need in Jun Lin Hall. How can Brother Yun let you spend so much? Since you’ve come, Young Master Bai will definitely return with you. Don’t worry, not a single strand of his hair will be missing.” “No, no.” Master Bai shook his head quickly.
He was so nervous that a thin layer of cold sweat formed on his forehead. He raised his hand and wiped it with his sleeve, not caring that Bai Ze was present.
“These things are for the High Priest Demon Heart. Bai Yue, that worrisome little thing, deserves to be disciplined. He deserves to suffer a little.” He had not been as nervous when he was home.
However, the more he thought about it after he left, the more afraid he became. If that kid went overboard and angered the High Priest Demon Heart, he would die!
Moreover, a few words from the High Priest Demon Heart could end the Bai family.
He was truly afraid.
As for that unfilial son, Master Bai never considered the suffering he might have endured. Whatever the suffering, as long as he could survive and carry on the Bai family line, everything was fine.
“For the High Priest?” Bai Ze raised his eyebrows.
Was his sister-in-law’s name really that scary?
Master Bai was, after all, a dignified family head. Although the Bai family’s status on Wulong Mountain was not as high as the prestigious Long family’s, Master Bai was stronger than Lord Long.
But the strength of a family depended not only on the head of the family but also on the strength of the family as a whole.
The Bai family could be considered one of the victims of the catastrophe 20 years ago. Although they were not completely wiped out, their family’s power plummeted.
Fortunately, they were not exterminated and rose gradually over the years.
“Yan Feng has already sent word. The High Priest and Brother Yun should be here soon. Please wait a moment.”
“No hurry, no hurry.”
Master Bai made a face at Bai Ze, revealing a smile that looked more unpleasant than crying.
He would not dare say that he was in a hurry. Even if An Jiuyue asked him to wait here for a few days and nights, he would still wait. He would not even dare to think about feeling dissatisfied..
