Yu Jie had just entered the hall of the Bai clan as Bai San was sitting there with a warm smile, as if already so waiting for his arrival after the past few days was busy looking for the fruitless Xia Mei.
“How are you, Patriarch Jie?" ask Bai San.
Yu Jie only smiled faintly before saluting his face, not wanting any pleasantries so immediately asked Bai San for the reason to meet him a few days ago.
Bai San only nodded slowly, after which he told Bai Yin to leave because he wanted to speak to Yu Jie with four eyes.
Bai Yin initially refused, she was not even satisfied to see Yu Jie so she did not agree with her father's orders.
“My daughter, aren't there things you should take care of now? Father will be angry if those royal people dare to enter here without permission, so hold them while Patriarch Jie is talking to Father" Bai San said.
Bai Yin immediately snorted in annoyance, a moment later walking out while saying, “Totaling alone, this is all because you guys came all of a sudden I so couldn't be with Young Master Jie any longer."
Bai San only laughed, a moment later glancing at Yu Jie with a meaningful gaze.
“Patriak San, if the engagement you want to talk about then forget it," Yu Jie said understanding Bai San's gaze.
Bai San's laughter immediately tightened, a moment later saying, “No, don't worry because that's not my purpose for asking to meet you."
“Good," Yu Jie timped with a sigh of relief.
Chief Yu Jie was in pain at the thought of Xia Mei's disappearance, in that situation of course there was no desire of her to discuss something like an engagement or the like.
Bai San not long after took something from his cloak pouch, those were some notes that Yu Jie had asked about.
“Look." Bai San gave some of the notes to Yu Jie.
Yu Jie immediately frowned reading the note, the contents had something to do with Xia Mei making Yu Jie look at Bai San fixedly hoping that Bai San would have more information than this.
Bai San immediately explained when Yu Jie's father was still alive, Yu Jie's father and himself gradually investigated something that had been done for years and had only stopped when Yu Jie's father disappeared.
The thing they were investigating themselves was Xia Mei's true identity as well as her place of origin, because Xia Mei was indeed not a native of the Yu clan but rather a little girl who was found in the forest near the clan before being raised as a child by Yu Jie's father.
Yu Jie was just listening, this related matter had him know for a long time from the memories of the previous owner of the body, but not too Yu Jie thought about it because of the younger sibling or not no problem for her.
The previous owner of the body loved Xia Mei as a younger sister and Yu Jie's job was to continue that affection as a form of return, who would have thought that the disappearance of Xia Mei would have something to do with Xia Mei's place of origin like this.
“The people you said brought Xia Mei, it could be that they are the people of the Xia clan that your father is in as well as I investigated for a long time."
Bai San closed his explanation.
Yu Jie immediately clenched his fingers tightly, himself wrathful but the Xia clan was so foreign to him that no one knew where they were making him unable to move at once.
“This is uncertain, but the Xia clan is so mysterious that the investigation of our two clans has still not received satisfactory results about them. There were some mysterious cultivators who had once appeared shaking the continent, their identity no one knew but me and your father suspected that mysterious cultivator as part of the Xia clan."
Bai San immediately shook his head, what he had just delivered was just a conjecture so there was no certainty this was true.
Yu Jie could only sigh deeply, sighing, the Bai Clan as well as the Yu clan under the leadership of his father alone could not dig deeper information related to this made Yu Jie realize that the Xia clan was indeed not a random clan.
Plus Yu Jie who never remembered there was a Xia clan when he was still the ruler of the continent, making Yu Jie more interested in finding out more about them.
“Nak Jie, I know it's hard for you to lose the sister who accompanied you as a child like him. Even so I must say you must not be rash, the Xia clan could be a dangerous hidden power in the continent where your life could be threatened if dealing with them," Bai San suddenly said.
Yu Jie briefly flinched before smiling thinly in response, son's call for her Yu Jie realized it contained a real sense of caring and not just pretending.
“Don't worry, Uncle San. I've grown so I understand what's good and not for me to do" Yu Jie said with her mouth itchy as she called Bai San as uncle.
Bai San immediately laughed out loud, after which said, “You can call me Dad if you want, on condition that you be my daughter's life partner."
Yu Jie simply responded to it with a soft slack, Bai San responded with a joking joke before the conversation continued to discuss the lighter one.
Brakk!!!
Yu Jie as well Bai San was still engrossed in conversation when the door of the hall suddenly opened forcibly, there had been a young woman as well as an old man from the Iron Armor kingdom that Bai Yin had expelled earlier.
Yu Jie only raised his brows as Bai San had already glared sharply at the two, Bai San seemed wrathfully questioning their sassiness when Bai Yin suddenly caught up with a panicked face.
“Dad, Young Master Jie, I'm sorry for this commotion because both of them are really thick in face and refuse to leave even after I've been kicked out so many times" Bai Yin explained.
Bai Yin then stepped over to the two, while shaking her waist saying, “Are you guys satisfied to see that I am considered incompetent? If I say go then go and don't make this kind of fuss!!!"
The young lady as well as the old man only ignored Bai Yin, the two of them preferred to approach Yu Jie as well as Bai San before kneeling down with a face of despair.
“Sorry for our presumptuous attitude, Patriarch San, Young Master. We have no other choice because your help is the only one the kingdom is hoping for right now." Old man with a faint voice.
“True, please for all of you to at least hear our complaints," said the young woman in a similar tone.
Bai San in the midst of his anger just stared at the two in silence, a moment later glanced at Yu Jie because from the beginning he knew there was a problem between Yu Jie and the two before coming there.
“It's up to you, son Jie. You want to give them a chance to explain excuses to dare to be presumptuous or punish because of that presumptuous attitude, do everything you want to both. After all, the royal family will not be able to do anything if something happens to them here" Bai San said.
Old men as well as young women immediately gulped their saliva, their bodies trembling in fear rather doubt whether the reckless actions they just performed were appropriate or not.
Yu Jie simply nodded, Bai San seemed to have been lazy to deal with the two of them to bestow this on him.
“I understand, Uncle San. I am good enough in judging whether something really matters or not to the extent of doing it with a life bet like the two of them," Yu Jie said with a faint but horrible smile.
