Chapter 313: The Missing Manor Master

Listening to Xu Feng’s worried tone and seeing his concerned expression, Bai He suddenly felt that he was not so annoying after all.

He actually looked a lot more cute than usual.

"I do not know this time either. In any case, it has simply not healed. I asked Elder Yao, and he also had no solution."

"Only Qingluan Lotus Seed can heal your wound?"

Bai He nodded. "Yes, only Qingluan Lotus Seed."

If there were any other method, he would not be so passive.

Xu Feng’s eyes darkened.

"Master, do not be afraid. You will definitely be fine."

"When have I been afraid? Facing life and death, I am very calm, alright?"

"Master, if you are scared, you can cry it out. I promise I will not laugh at you this time."

Just when Bai He thought he had become somewhat cute, he immediately returned to his usual self.

"Go go go. Stop bothering me."

...

"You two, where did you come from? Who allowed you to make such a commotion here? And when you see our Senior Sister Huang Rong, you do not even greet her."

A sharp voice interrupted their conversation.

Bai He curiously turned his head and saw several angry people standing at the entrance.

"Master, do you think they look a little familiar?"

Bai He always thought he was already quite face blind, but he did not expect Xu Feng to be even worse than him.

"Did we not just see them earlier?"

"Oh."

"What are you two whispering about? Recently, our Qingluan Manor does not allow any outsiders to enter the sect. Where exactly are you from? You must explain yourselves clearly now."

The man walking toward them looked about the same age as Xu Feng, but he had a very aggressive aura.

He walked straight toward Bai He and just as his hand was about to touch him, Xu Feng immediately blocked him.

"Take your hand back."

"You..." The man looked somewhat unwilling, and just as he was about to use spiritual power, he suddenly realized that it had been suppressed by some unknown force.

"Hong Xian, come back."

Huang Rong spoke, and Hong Xian returned to her side.

She slowly walked up to Bai He and Xu Feng.

In fact, she was not blind.

Even if she did not know who these two people were, the aura they carried and the feeling they gave off were completely different.

"We have come to visit. If we have offended you in any way, miss, please forgive us. We do not have any ill intentions. We received a letter from Ma Hongjun and came here to help."

Bai He’s attitude was, in his own opinion, very polite.

He pulled Xu Feng behind him.

Courtesy first, force later.

If the other side still refused to cooperate, then Bai He would not be an easy person to deal with.

"You came here to help? Could it be that Ma Hongjun has already told you everything? How could he tell you?"

"Miss is joking. Ma Hongjun only borrowed something from me. He did not tell me anything about the situation. I do not know what happened in Qingluan Manor that led to outsiders being forbidden from entering. However, if there really is something very important that Qingluan Manor cannot resolve, I hope you will not treat me as an outsider and tell me."

Right now, Bai He was Ma Hongjun’s friend.

As a friend, he was here to help Ma Hongjun.

However, he was also an elder of Lingguang Sect.

As an elder of Lingguang Sect, he absolutely had the qualifications to intervene in Qingluan Manor’s matters.

"Senior Sister Huang Rong, why do you have time to come here?"

Ma Hongjun walked out from inside the room.

Although he was older than Huang Rong, he had entered the sect later than her, so naturally he was considered her junior brother.

"You know the situation of the sect. Now there are outsiders in Qingluan Manor. Should I not ask about it? Ma Hongjun, letting outsiders into the sect, if something goes wrong, you will have to bear the consequences."

"He is not an outsider. He is someone sent by Lingguang Sect to help Qingluan Manor through this crisis. Elder Bai He, am I right?"

Bai He paused for a moment.

Was Ma Hongjun talking to him?

He reacted a little slowly, but he roughly understood what Ma Hongjun meant.

He was implying that Bai He was sent by Yao Xiangli to help Qingluan Manor.

That way, Huang Rong would not be able to say much. But was it really okay to lie like this?

"Elder Bai He, where is your elder token?"

The elder token was naturally carried on him at all times, since it was needed in many places.

Bai He then took it out, proving his identity, and also proving that Ma Hongjun was not lying.

Huang Rong’s expression slightly changed, but she still led the others in a formal greeting toward Bai He.

"Greetings, Elder."

Bai He pressed his lips together, feeling a little uncomfortable and slightly embarrassed.

"Rise. There is no need for formalities."

"Elder Bai He has just arrived here and is already very tired and needs rest. You should not disturb him."

With Ma Hongjun’s words, everyone withdrew from his courtyard.

Only then did Bai He step forward to Ma Hongjun and question him.

"Ma Hongjun, are you crazy? If my Senior Brother finds out that I falsely conveyed his orders, I will be scolded. Moreover, I do not even know what is going on. Are you sure you want me to help?"

Ma Hongjun’s expression became somewhat serious.

"Elder Bai He, this matter truly needs your help."

"I already said it. I will not expend my cultivation power."

"Both of you, follow me. I will tell you everything that has happened in Qingluan Manor."

Ma Hongjun turned around and walked away.

Bai He and Xu Feng silently followed behind him.

According to Ma Hongjun, the Manor Master of Qingluan Manor had disappeared.
