Chapter 202: Forced Recruitment and Uneasy Return

In the original story, he had also tried to recruit Ye Shiyuan, and now it seemed to be the same again.

Finally, Ye Shiyuan returned.

Bai He quickly walked forward.

"Shiyuan."

Ye Shiyuan reached out and hugged him.

Although he had not done anything wrong, he somehow felt as if he had wronged Bai He.

"Master."

"Where is the reward?"

"I did not accept it."

"What kind of reward is it that Ye Shiyuan cannot accept?" Bai He curiously asked.

"Master, do not ask anymore."

In any case, since he had already refused it, it no longer mattered what it was.

"Just tell me, what is it?"

"Master, it is better that you do not know. I am afraid you might get angry."

Bai He made a bold guess.

He held onto Ye Shiyuan’s arm and said, "Mm, was it because the Pagoda Master saw how outstanding you are, so he wanted to recruit you?"

"Master, can you really read minds?"

Bai He smiled at him.

"Did he even offer his own daughter?"

"You actually guessed it correctly."

"It really was like that."

Bai He indeed felt angry.

"This kind of reward, it is right not to accept it."

Ye Shiyuan gently rubbed his hair.

Bai He originally did not want to speak, but still said it in the end. "Shiyuan, I am really sorry, I have to leave."

Ye Shiyuan’s expression froze slightly.

It was obvious that he was very reluctant.

"Will Master come again?"

"Mm, maybe. Shiyuan, you must take good care of yourself. Although Ma Hongjun talks a lot, he is still a good person. He knows everything here, you can ask him. As for Ning Rongrong, just forget about her."

"Master, I will see you off."

"No need. Find a quiet place. I can leave directly using my Beast God Shuttle."

Although Bai He said he was leaving, he still delayed until nightfall before departing.

He left while Ye Shiyuan was asleep.

But after Bai He left, Ye Shiyuan opened his eyes.

There was no trace of sleepiness at all.

He had not been asleep.

Or rather, how could he possibly sleep.

However, if he kept holding onto Bai He and refused to let him leave, he would also make things difficult for him.

He knows his Master is such a soft-hearted person.

Bai He finally returned to the Baize Peak.

Even though he had only been away for less than two days, it already felt like a very long time.

"Oh my, Master, you are finally back."

"What happened? Something went wrong while I was away?"

It was already so late, yet Xu Feng was still not resting.

It was truly surprising.

"The Sect Master was looking for you. You tell me, you left behind a puppet and just left. How would I have the courage to stop the Sect Master and not let him in? He found out you were not here and secretly slipped out. Out of anger and embarrassment, he ordered me that once you return, you must go see him."

It was Yao Xiangli.

Bai He still felt a little uneasy in his heart.

"Do you know what happened?"

Xu Feng shook his head.

"I do not know."

"Forget it, do not think about it. Go and get me a few bottles of medicinal pills. Water-type ones."

"Alright, Master."

Xu Feng thought Bai He wanted to consume them, so he brought back several bottles.

But when he returned, he saw Bai He staring at something blue on the table.

Xu Feng also ran over with curiosity.

"Master, what is this? It is so cute."

He reached out his hand to touch it, but the Water Mirror Image Beast did not seem to like Xu Feng’s touch.

It directly bit his finger, scaring him so much that he immediately pulled his hand back.

"This little thing is actually so fierce."

Bai He smiled.

"Give it a medicinal pill to eat. Maybe in the future it will not reject you."

Xu Feng followed Bai He’s words and poured out a pill from the bottle, slowly placing it in front of the Water Mirror Image Beast.

The Water Mirror Image Beast seemed to be hungry.

It sniffed it, then directly bit it and ate it.

It finished very quickly.

Xu Feng found it very novel.

Bai He simply handed it over to him.

"Your Master is tired. You take care of it first."

"Alright, Master."

The next day.

Bai He arrived at Yaoxing Peak with an extremely uneasy feeling in his heart.

Mm, it seemed that apart from himself, the other senior brothers and senior sisters had all arrived as well.

He even had the impulse to just turn around and leave, but in the end he still steeled himself and walked inside.

He put on a smile and said, "Senior brothers, senior sisters, hello."

As the saying goes, you do not hit a smiling face.

They should not hit him, right?

"Xiao Bai, where did you go?"

The one who asked him was Third Senior Sister Zhou Yifei.

It was obvious she was actually quite angry.

He had disappeared without reason and Xu Feng at Baize Peak could not even say where he had gone.

He had even left behind a puppet, intending to pass things off and get away with it.

How could they not ask clearly?

Bai He gritted his teeth and slowly walked in front of Zhou Yifei.

"Third Senior Sister, I just wanted to go out and play for a while. I planned to come back after a short time. I did not expect that the Sect Master, who usually does not care about me at all, would actually come looking for me."

"What do you mean by that? Are you saying I usually do not care about you?"

Bai He pressed his lips together.

"Yes. Senior Brother, you are usually busy with the affairs of the sect every day. I have not gone down the mountain for more than a month, and you never came to find me. I only left for one day this time, and you immediately came to look for me. I seriously suspect that you have placed spies in my Baize Peak, waiting for me to be away so you can catch me doing something wrong, and then punish me."
