Chapter 282 Next Step of The Plan

After only half a day, the entire city was in an uproar. Everyone, from those with high positions of power and strength to those who were not involved in the business, were chatting enthusiastically!

“Did you guys hear? Heh, that demon Lin Bai came to the City Lord’s Estate today and beat up all of them. He even wrote on the City Lord’s Estate’s door to mock the City Lord. Isn’t this a slap to the City Lord’s face?!”

“This matter isn’t new. Have you guys heard of He Qingyuan? I heard that he fought with Lin Bai and his whereabouts are still unknown!”

“Let me tell you, none of you have heard of this matter. Cough cough, I’ll lower my voice. I heard that Lin Bai isn’t a demon. He’s being slandered. The real demon is… The City Lord!”

“Hiss… Lower your voice. I heard some people bring up this matter. If others hear it, we won’t be able to bear the consequences!” “Hmph! If you say that, I won’t accept it! If the City Lord is aboveboard and has a clear conscience, then we can just say it here. After all, the demon Is Lin Bai and not him. What is there to be afraid of? And if he does this, it will inevitably cause people to have suspicions!”

At this moment, a group of people from the City Lord’s Estate walked through the streets in an imposing manner. Everyone hurriedly stopped what they were saying and scattered in all directions.

On the other side, the City Lord was sitting in the hall of the main hall. His face was gloomy and his face was ashen. There were blue veins throbbing faintly on his temples. “City Lord, your subordinate has already tried to stop the spread of the news. However, this matter has spread too widely. I’m afraid that now…”

A person came forward and spoke while trembling. He did not even dare to raise his eyes to look at the City Lord.

He did not even need to look to guess that the City Lord’s terrifying atmosphere made it difficult for him to breathe.

“Trash!” The City Lord interrupted the person who had come. “Why are you reporting when you can’t control it? Get out of here!”

The City Lord’s face was ashen, and his tone was filled with anger. This anger seemed like it was going to devour the person in front of him and burn him to ashes!

That person was so frightened that his entire body began to tremble. He hurriedly stood up and retreated, apologizing, “Yes! City Lord, I will do it right away!” Bai Xi’s residence, however, was abnormally quiet.

After causing a ruckus in the City Lord’s Estate, Lin Bai quietly returned to Bai Xi’s residence. During this period, there were a few people who wanted to secretly follow behind him, but they were all carefully disposed of by Lin Bai.

After disposing of the people, Lin Bai naturally wouldn’t forget to use the medicinal liquid that he obtained from thin man.

At that time, Bai Xi had already sent a servant to prepare food, wine, and food. He had also specially cleared out a courtyard to prevent the servants from approaching. As for the reason he had told the servants, Bai Xi had said that she was about to break through and needed to cultivate meticulously. No one was allowed to disturb her.

If not for that, they would have simply told the servants not to come close to this place. If they were to think of He Qingyuan, the City Lord, and Lin Bai, it would be very easy for them to let their imaginations run wild.

Even though the City Lord had used his demonic nature to taint Bai Xi, fatty, and skinny, and had mistakenly thought that his brainwashing had succeeded, that did not mean that the City Lord completely trusted them. If they were to reveal anything, they would once again become the targets of suspicion.

“Heh! Lin Bai, you’ve done a great deed. How satisfying! It’s a pity that I can’t see the City Lord’s current expression. What a pity!”

In the attic, Bai Xi poured a glass of wine for Lin Bai, and her face was filled with joy.

“That’s right, that’s right!” Fatty echoed from the side. “You didn’t see the City Lord with us. You don’t know…”

Halfway through his words, fatty turned his head and looked around the room, after confirming that there was no mistake, he continued with a bit of lingering fear. “At that time, the power on his body made me feel like I couldn’t breathe at all. At that time, I thought that he was going to kill us. “Fortunately, he didn’t do that. “Fortunately, the pill you gave us really worked!”

“Just shut your mouth!” The thin man’s face was full of disdain. “Apart from Master Lin Bai, who has contributed the most today?!

It’s got to be me! Do you think the demon would have let us off so easily without my masterful, underhanded way of speaking?”

Fatty was not convinced “You really know how to add credit to yourself.”

Didn’t Master Lin teach you how to say that? How can you say that with the little knowledge you have in you.

The thin man and the fat man exchanged a few words. They looked at each other and burst into laughter.

“However, what should we do next?” Bai Xi was much calmer than the two of them. She only drank a few cups.

When the thin man and the fat man heard this, they put down their chopsticks and looked at Lin Bai.

They were also very curious. In the previous plan, Lin Bai did not mention that he would take advantage of the fact that there was no one in the City Lord’s Estate to provoke him alone.

However, the few of them were bound together by benefits, so the thin man and fatty did not care about this. If it were them, they would not tell Lin Bai about the plan that they had arranged.

“These few days, I have already attracted enough attention from the City Lord…” Lin Bai knocked on the table with his hand, making a crisp sound.

“So?”

Seeing Lin Bai’s tantalizing look, fatty did not hold back at all.

“He has planted spies near the people I’m on good terms with, so he must be certain that I won’t dare to look for them. Therefore, I’ll do the opposite!”

Lin Bai laughed lightly, but the faces of the thin man and fatty twitched. They really did not expect Lin Bai to be so bold and meticulous, to jump into the pit himself.

In their opinion, if they were to come into contact with people that Lin Bai was on good terms with, they would most likely be discovered, surrounded, and captured by the City Lord’s subordinates!

“What about the few of us?”

The thin man rolled his eyes and asked.

On the surface, they had already become the City Lord’s brainwashed puppets, wholeheartedly supporting the City Lord. “All of you, just as usual, when the City Lord calls you, all of you will act according to the instructions. Bai Xi can go out and actively look for me.” freew ebnov el

Lin Bai continued to add.

“Look for you?” Bai Xi frowned.

Lin Bai nodded. “Yes, you are going to look for me. You’d better make some noise and let them know what you are doing.”

After Bai Xi heard that, she did not know the reason behind Lin Bai’s arrangement. However, they had followed Lin Bai’s plan previously and were safe and sound, so this time, Bai Xi did not ask any more questions. “However!”! Lin Bai’s voice has become louder. You guys have to be careful as well. I still don’t know how long the effects of the pill can last. “Try your best not to give ourselves away in front of the City Lord. Otherwise, our plan will all be lost.”

“Yes.”

Bai Xi, the skinny man, and the fatty nodded solemnly. This was related to them as well, so they naturally did not dare to be careless.

After eating and drinking their fill, Bai Xi, thin man, and fatty dispersed.

They fled one after another and did not sleep for the entire night. After Lin Bai washed up, he laid on the bed and closed his eyes before falling into a deep sleep.
