Imparting My Cultivation To Beasts Gets Me 10,000X In Return!-Chapter 269 - Bai Xi’s Probing
Chapter 269 Bai Xi’s Probing
“About that…”
Lin Bai smiled as he stroked his chin, his gaze sweeping over the fat and thin duo.
The fat and thin duo were swept by Lin Bai’s harmless gaze, but their bodies quivered, and they cried out in alarm.
Clearly, it was impossible for them to leave Lin Bai’s hands in a short period of time!
“Um, sir, I’m wondering why you want to keep us…”
The thin man slowly opened his mouth and probed.
“No rush, speak slowly. Trust me, it’s not a difficult thing.”
Lin Bai’s tone was very calm, but when the fat and thin duo heard this, they were not calm at all. They began to mutter in their hearts.
If they stood on Lin Bai’s side and helped him, then they would be regarded as subordinates of the “demon.” Everyone in the capital would have to kill them!
Bai Xi frowned as he listened to the conversation between Lin Bai and them. At the same time, she was thinking about what fatty had told her. She was silently digesting all this in her heart.
Ever since Lin Bai’s accident, Bai Xi had thought that the City Lord and the others would secretly spy on her to see if she had any dealings with Lin Bai.
For this reason, she had gone to great lengths to search for traces of the people who were spying on her in the courtyard every night. However, after many days, she had not been able to find any traces of them.
Yet now, those two people were right in front of him.
When he thought of this, Bai Xi could not help but feel a lingering fear. Wherever she went and who she met every day, even her every move was seen by the fat and thin duo in front of her. They could still see it clearly.
Fortunately, they were only acting as surveillance and did not want to kill her…
In addition to that, combined with what the two of them had said and Lin Bai’s current actions, the thought in Bai Xi’s heart was confirmed.
“Let’s talk about it, but not here.”
Bai Xi said to Lin Bai. She was eager to know more.
Although she was not 100% sure that Lin Bai was not a devil, she believed that at least Lin Bai would not have any other thoughts about her now.
“That’s good!” Lin Bai nodded. “Even though I’ve already avoided making any noise during the fight just now, who knows if the City Lord and the others will send someone over to take a look or attract other people’s attention.”
Lin Bai followed Bai Xi through a small pond and passed by a rockery before arriving at a loft in the middle of the courtyard.
As for the fat and thin duo, one of them was kicked by Little Black while the other was dragged by Little Green. They felt bitter in their hearts, but they didn’t dare to say it. “This place is safer, and few people come here. If others come here to spy on us, I will definitely be able to detect them!”
Bai Xi opened the door and motioned for Lin Bai and the others to enter.
The moment Lin Bai stepped into the room, he smelled a refreshing fragrance wafting over. He could not help but lick his lips and followed the fragrance into the inner room.
“Good wine!”
Lin Bai drank by himself. Sweet and cool wine slid into his mouth and warmed his entire chest. A comfortable color spread from inside to outside.
This made Lin Bai, who had been avoiding the pursuit for days, relax quite a bit.
Little Green and Little Black looked at the table with eager eyes and licked their lips like Lin Bai. On the table was a rich and fragrant roast chicken.
Lin Bai glanced at Bai Xi. Seeing that the latter did not say anything, he picked up the two roast chickens and threw them to Little Green and Little Black.
Although Little Black and Little Green did not need to eat these often they would occasionally satisfy their cravings with Lin Bai. They had been following Lin Bai around for many days and had not eaten delicious food for a long time. It was inevitable that they would yearn for the roast chicken.

Lin Bai saw that Little Black and Little Green were eating without caring about anything, so he sat up straight again. He picked up the wine flask and poured a cup for Bai Xi and himself.
“Um, sir, do we have a share? We have been…”
Fatty smacked his mouth and could not help but salivate when he smelled the aroma. However, he had just opened his mouth to say a few words when he saw Little Black’s cold gaze. He could only shut his mouth.
“Come, drink!”
Lin Bai raised his wine glass and took another sip, but Bai Xi did not move. Even though she believed that Lin Bai would not have any ill intentions towards her now, she had not truly let down her guard. She had not truly solved the mystery in her heart.
“Then let me tell you about it!” Lin Bai chuckled and told him everything from the beginning. What had happened at that time, what had happened to the City Lord, and how the City Lord had deceived the others.
As for the matter of him and Fool Li on the mountain, Lin Bai had only briefly mentioned it. It was good that he knew some of the details.
“After that, I buried Fool Li and came to look for you. As for what happened after that, you’ll know as well!”
Lin Bai once again picked up the wine flask. The wine flask was empty and not a single drop of wine could be seen.
Bai Xi was silent for a long time, as if she was thinking about something. Her brows would sometimes furrow and sometimes relax. After a long while, she said, “So, you came to look for me to deal with the City Lord, and you seem to have a plan in mind?”
Lin Bai smiled and did not comment. He asked in return, “So you believe what my word that the City Lord is actually the demon?”
When Lin Bai said this, he looked sharply at Bai Xi. This gaze made Bai Xi feel as if her body had been cut open by a sharp blade. There was not a single secret in his entire body.
“I believe you!”
Bai Xi nodded and said one word directly. Then, her brows completely relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face.
To be honest, she had never believed that Lin Bai would become the demon that the City Lord and the others talked about. In addition, the City Lord’s previous actions made Bai Xi believe what Lin Bai said!
“I’ll go get some wine. It’s still early. I think you haven’t had a good rest these days, and you haven’t eaten much either!”
Bai Xi got up and left, walking out of the attic. Then, the sound of her footsteps gradually disappeared. “Um… Master Lin Bai.”
The thin man spoke weakly at the side, sizing up Lin Bai’s expression.
Lin Bai said coldly, “Speak!”
“Bai Xi just went out like this. Aren’t you afraid that she will report you? Or, master Lin Bai, you already have a plan. If she makes any other moves, then…” The thin man’s words stopp edvery well. He did not say the last few words because some things that were not said would be understood by everyone. On the contrary, if you said it, you would get into trouble.
“I have always been very good at judging people!”
Lin Bai only left these words before he began to slowly taste some of the cold dishes on the table.
The thin man and the fatty exchanged a glance in private. Based on their understanding, it was very likely that Bai Xi had left at this time to reveal the news.
If the City Lord sent someone over, regardless of whether they had captured Lin Bai or not, once they found out that they had revealed the news, the person who would face them would be dead.
After an unknown period of time, the sound of footsteps could be heard outside the attic again.
Bai Xi opened the door and walked in with wine and dishes. When sje saw that Lin Bai was still sitting in front of the table, she smiled and said, “You are still you. You haven’t changed… I believe in you!”
When he left just now, it was actually a test to see if Lin Bai was still the former Lin Bai.
And if Lin Bai really became a demon, he wouldn’t be as calm as he was now after she had left for so long. During the time she was gone, he would definitely make a move, or even make a move on Bai Xi… But during the time Bai Xi had been out and back, she didn’t feel that Lin Bai was following her or anything else.
In addition to Lin Bai’s calmness, she had reason to believe what Lin Bai said!
