Chapter 282 The Situation Is Confusing

Xu Bai was already confused, and after hearing this, he was even more confused.

He was a little confused. When he fought against thousands of people alone, it seemed like the last hurdle of going to Beijing.

But he was sure of one thing, that he did not let anyone go.

He was like this. When dealing with enemies, he would definitely cut the grass and root it out.

It was impossible to let anyone go, so he should have no enemies, not to mention that there was no extraordinary person chasing him.

Now a person in the extraordinary realm suddenly appeared, and this was his enemy, which always felt a little unreliable.

"Well... explain it in more detail, I still don't understand." Xu Bai pondered for a while, then shook his head, indicating that he still didn't understand.

"It's right not to understand." General Mu explained: "Let me tell you about this person first. This person is a master at the top of the extraordinary level, and is good at the ability of the soul. He does not have special abilities in soul attack, but more of a soul assisting ability."

"Including exploration and treatment, as well as abilities in other aspects, his combat effectiveness is not very strong, but when it comes to assisting abilities, he is top-notch."

"If you insist that he has some inevitable connection with you, one of the people you killed was his grandson."

After saying this, Xu Bai understood.

However... he still didn't understand a little.

"Why didn't His Majesty the Emperor of Chu remove him? His grandson was also involved at the time." Xu Bai asked.

Let's not talk about other things for now. At the beginning, he went to the capital to wipe out all those heretical forces and expose those forces.

His grandson is involved in this, so naturally, he should be counted in.

General Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "If it were that simple, it would be great. It was indeed his grandson who participated, but he himself did not participate. Moreover, this guy is a very good person, kind, and has a high prestige among the people, so His Majesty did not touch him."

"When he knew what his grandson had done, he did not say anything, and even said that this was the punishment he deserved, but that was his only grandson."

"Later, His Majesty asked him if he had any complaints. He said that he did, but he would not vent his anger on others."

"I wondered whether he would help or not. This is really an unknown number. After all, you killed his grandson with your own hands."

Hearing this, Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "Such a kind person, can't he tell the situation?"

The meaning of the words just now was almost praising this person. Even if he killed his grandson himself, it was because his grandson died by his own actions. Could he still hate him?

When he did not do it, he would be the one to die. This is impossible, and the other party was the first to do it.

Director Mu did not answer this sentence, but the dean on the side spoke.

"He is quite clear about gratitude and resentment. He said he would not cause trouble for you, but he would not help you with anything related to you. He made it clear."

At this point, everything was clear.

This means that he would remain neutral, but would never help anyone related to him. Yun Zihai was related to him, so this person probably would not help him either.

Xu Bai was silent for a moment, and said, "Who is that person? Where is he now?"

Director Mu was stunned.

Xu Bai continued, "I don't have extra time to play these games with him now. I will go there in person. If he agrees, it's fine. If he doesn't agree, he may use some tough measures."

"I don't care whether he is kind or not, but in my opinion, my friend is in trouble now and needs his help. If he succeeds, I will give him the corresponding reward. If he fails, I will not blame him."

In Xu Bai's view, everything is very clear.

Yes, he killed this man's grandson at the beginning, but it was entirely because this guy was against him.

If he doesn't do it, he will die.

So there is nothing wrong with his position, and there is nothing wrong with the other party's position. His grandson did a big mistake and died in his hands. It is normal that the other party can understand the situation but says he will not help him.

However, the problem now is that he needs this guy's help, and this guy is unwilling, so he can only use his own way.

Prime Minister Wen pondered and said, "Anyway, he has to take action anyway, so he can give it a try. There are too few people in the spirit and soul, especially those who are proficient in spirit and soul assistance. If he agrees, it's fine. If he doesn't agree, maybe he really needs to use some special means."

Xu Bai nodded. Although Prime Minister Wen had tried to test him at the beginning, he still agreed with Prime Minister Wen in this regard: "I won't take his life, let alone hurt him, and I will use some special methods."

This guy is kind, and Xu Bai will not do anything unscrupulous.

The dean also expressed his approval and added: "If he is willing to help, the academy will owe him a favor."

Seeing that everyone had made up their minds, General Manager Mu next to him could only express his approval and told Xu Bai where the man was.

Xu Bai did not stay for too long. Saving Yun Zihai was the most important thing now, so he got up and left.

…

After leaving the palace of the Great Chu Kingdom, he rushed all the way to his destination.

This man was in the edge of the Great Chu Kingdom, far away from the center of the Great Chu Kingdom, and seemed to be at peace with the world.

Fortunately, Xu Bai's speed was not slow. He was accelerating at full speed and closing the distance.

After a while, he finally arrived at the edge of his Chu Kingdom.

There was a relatively dilapidated city here, which looked very backward.

Although it was backward, there were many facilities. When Xu Bai fell from the sky, he immediately attracted the attention of the local Tianshi.

And when these guys saw that it was Xu Bai, they immediately turned their eyes away.

No matter how remote the place was, Xu Bai's appearance had been engraved in their minds.

Although Prince Xu did not know the reason for arriving at the border hammer, it was better for them, the little people, not to care.

No one came to talk nonsense, Xu Bai wanted to be free, he followed the direction pointed by Master Mu and rushed to that direction.

Even in the borderland, the location of the extraordinary master who was proficient in the soul was still in a remote place.

When Xu Bai rushed to a seemingly uninhabited mountain, he walked up the mountain and saw an ancient thatched cottage not long after.

Before he got close, he felt a wave of soul power sweeping over.

Xu Bai narrowed his eyes. He was now a master who had entered the sainthood and was also proficient in the power of the soul. He could feel that the other party's soul method was different from his own.

The offensiveness was not very high, but it was surprisingly sensitive.

If used as an auxiliary, it could indeed play a great role.

Xu Bai stopped and said loudly: "Is it Senior Chen?"

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person.

Xu Bai first did the etiquette in place, as for the rest, it depends on whether the other party gives face.

After Xu Bai finished saying this, the spirit in the hut stagnated slightly and quickly retracted.

After a while, an old voice came from the hut.

"My children have died in the past years, leaving only a grandson. He is seeking death on his own, and I did not stop him."

"But I am tired of everything and don't want to participate anymore. I don't want to know your intentions. I just want to live in seclusion here."

"From now on, I won't ask anything."

At this point, everything is clear.

The other party means that he will not help.

Xu Bai pondered and said, "Senior Chen, I really need your help. I know that I killed your grandson, but he provoked me first, otherwise I would not have taken action. General Mu once said that you are a kind person, how can you stand idly by?"

This sentence absolutely does not mean moral kidnapping. The reason is very clear. The grandson of the old man surnamed Chen attacked him, and it is natural for him to fight back.

The reason for saying this is not moral kidnapping, but courtesy before force.

In the room, the old voice came again.

"You mean, if I don't help, you will attack me?"

Xu Bai stopped talking, but he had already expressed his meaning.

In an instant, a golden and grayish-white sky appeared, dyeing the entire sky red.

Xu Bai's figure disappeared on the spot, and in the blink of an eye, he had arrived in the thatched house.

As soon as he entered, Xu Bai saw a white-haired old man with his back to him.

The old man was not surprised at Xu Bai's arrival, but turned around slowly.

As the old man turned around, Xu Bai narrowed his eyes after seeing his true face and said, "Would you rather die in glory than live in disgrace?"

The old man held a dagger in his hand, which was against his neck: "We are all cultivating the soul. I know your ability. If you want to do it, I will destroy myself first before you do it, because I am also proficient in the soul, and you can't sneak attack my soul."

Xu Bai said helplessly: "Why bother, you just need to do me a favor, and I will even give you a reward, why bother to make things awkward?"

He didn't expect that this old man would be so stubborn and pretend to be willing to die.

The old man said coldly: "At my age, rewards are useless. You can only leave or I will die."

The choice seemed to be thrown to Xu Bai.

Xu Bai pondered for a long time, and suddenly took a step forward.

In just a moment, the dagger in the old man's hand fell to the ground.

"You seem to have forgotten that I have become a saint. My speed is far beyond yours. Even if your soul is well controlled, your physical speed is far slower than mine."

"By the way, I heard that your soul is more inclined to assist, so your self-attack will be very weak."

When the dagger was taken away, Xu Bai's soul quickly controlled the old man at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The old man's eyes became dull and motionless.

Xu Bai sighed: "Don't blame me, there is not much time left on this trip to waste time with you."

After that, Xu Bai carried the old man and rushed directly to the palace of the Great Chu Kingdom...

...

Coming quickly, leaving quickly, Xu Bai encountered almost no obstacles along the way, and soon he carried the old man to the palace of the Great Chu Kingdom.

Inside the palace of the Great Chu Kingdom.

At this moment, General Manager Mu and others were still waiting.

A gust of wind blew, and Xu Bai had already carried the old man and rushed over in a hurry.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

"You..." General Manager Mu was interrupted by Xu Bai before he finished speaking.

"There is no time to explain, solving the problem is important."

While speaking, Xu Bai put the old man down.

As a stopgap measure, Yun Zihai's problem must be solved now. After solving it, let the old man say whatever he wants, and just bear it.

The old man's face was dull, without any extra expression.

With Xu Bai snapping his fingers, the old man, who had a dull expression, suddenly moved.

Under the control of Xu Bai's spirit, the old man staggered to Yun Zihai's side, raised his index finger, and pressed it on Yun Zihai's forehead. The next moment, the power of the spirit followed the old man's finger and directly poured into Yun Zihai's brain.

The time did not last too long. After just a moment, the old man retracted his finger, turned his head, and looked at Xu Bai with dull eyes.

The old man slowly uttered a few words: "There are too many spirits inside, and there is no way to save the situation, unless there is a way."

Xu Bai frowned. This answer was beyond his expectation, but when he heard that there was another way, he instantly became energetic.

"What method?"

The old man said dully: "The person who tied the bell must untie it. You are the key to this problem. Only if your spirit enters it, under my guidance, maybe you can exchange a way for him to live."

Xu Bai frowned more and more when he heard this.

Not only him, but also others had the same expression.

This method is actually very dangerous. Yun Zihai now contains the souls of countless worlds all over his body, and his own soul is like a small boat, which is extremely dangerous.

Even if Xu Bai enters rashly, he may be swallowed by the souls of countless worlds.

The people present looked at each other, and no one spoke.

According to what the old man just said, maybe this is really the only solution. After all, this old man is surprisingly strong in soul assistance.

But this matter still needs Xu Bai to make a decision. It depends on whether Xu Bai thinks this risk is worth taking.

Xu Bai did not answer. His brows were getting tighter and tighter, and he always felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly, he raised his head, his frowned eyebrows loosened, and he touched his chin with his hand, examining the old man in front of him.

"It looks like it, it looks really like it."

This sudden sentence made everyone present stunned.

The old man still looked dull and had no expression.

At this time, Xu Bai continued, "Don't pretend anymore. You almost fooled me by pretending to be controlled by me. But you have a flaw. Although it looks very subtle, I still found it."

The old man still didn't speak, as if he was really controlled by Xu Bai.

Everyone's eyes stayed on the old man's face. They had heard Xu Bai's meaning clearly.

Xu Bai stretched out his hand, pinched the old man's neck, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Do you really want me to tell you the whole story? You betrayed this world, the running dog of the Holy One."
