Chapter 396: Finding Xu Feng

What Zhang Hao was worried about was Bai He. As for Ye Shiyuan, there was actually nothing to worry about. His strength was beyond question. However, for Bai He, defeating either the master of the fourth floor or the master of the fifth floor would not be an easy matter.

Seeing Zhang Hao’s gaze fall upon him, Bai He could not help feeling somewhat nervous. "Are they really that powerful?"

"I have seen you make a move before, Master. He should be a little stronger than you, but if you use some clever tricks, it is not impossible for you to win."

Bai He learned more about the master of the fifth floor. He was a demon. In this place, demons were no longer anything strange. Most of the people here were demons and most of these demons had come here without ever intending to leave.

To them, this place was practically another paradise. It could even be said that they could release their true nature here. There was another point. Most of them had probably already been rejected by the demon race when they came here.

Bai He looked at the information about the fifth floor that Zhang Hao had sent over, and his entire person looked somewhat listless.

"Host, do not lose heart. You may not necessarily be unable to defeat him."

Was Mo Zhu actually trying to comfort him?

Ye Shiyuan lowered his head beside Bai He and asked, "Master, are you worried?"

"To some extent. After all, if I cannot defeat him, then I will have no way to leave this place."

"Actually, there is another way."

"What way do you have?"

Ye Shiyuan sat down. "I will challenge the master of the fifth floor first."

Bai He nodded without saying anything, quietly waiting for Ye Shiyuan to continue speaking.

He then smiled and said, "Then you challenge me."

"You want to deliberately lose to me?"

"You have defeated me before too, have you not? Losing to you would be perfectly normal."

How could that even count as Bai He defeating Ye Shiyuan?

"Then forget it. I will do it myself."

In Bai He’s eyes, Ye Shiyuan’s method was indeed a very good solution. However, if Bai He really let Ye Shiyuan do this, he could not help feeling that something about it was wrong.

"Mm. You can try it yourself first. If you cannot handle it, then use the method I mentioned."

Bai He nodded. "Alright."

In Bai He’s eyes, Ye Shiyuan was being quite considerate today. He had actually not stubbornly insisted that Bai He agree to his method.

Ye Shiyuan had thought about it. Since Bai He wanted to grow stronger, he could not become an obstacle on Bai He’s path to growth.

Doing everything for Bai He was not necessarily truly good for him.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

Bai He and Ye Shiyuan looked at each other.

Ye Shiyuan reached out and gently rubbed Bai He’s hair. "I will go open the door."

Actually, Bai He did not need to guess at all to know who had come.

The Soul Eater Demon no longer dared to provoke Bai He, so the only possibility was Zhang Hao.

Bai He truly regretted accepting him as his disciple. His personality was just as troublesome as Xu Feng’s. No, he was even more troublesome than Xu Feng.

What exactly had Bai He done to deserve taking in such a disciple?

And it was not just this one. All three of his disciples were strange in their own ways.

"Host, if other people had even one disciple like this, they would not know how happy they should be. You are the only one who sighs all day long."

"You said it yourself. If one disciple makes someone happy, then let someone have three of them and see if they can still be happy."

Mo Zhu fell silent.

When Zhang Hao saw Ye Shiyuan open the door, he simply called him "Senior Brother" before immediately running inside.

"Master."

Bai He looked at him. "Why are you here again?"

Bai He remembered that he seemed to have only left an hour ago.

"Master, are you saying that you dislike me?"

"Enough. If you have something to say, then hurry up and say it."

"Ahem, I have already found some information about my second senior brother."

Bai He immediately stood up. "You mean Xiao Feng? You know where he is?"

"I have found some clues, but before I actually meet that person, I still cannot be certain whether he is the person Master is looking for."

Bai He took back what he had thought earlier. Zhang Hao was actually not completely useless.

Although he wanted to defeat the master of the fifth floor, ultimately, Bai He still had to take Xu Feng and leave Heiyuan City together.

If he left Xu Feng behind here, Bai He would never be able to feel at ease for the rest of his life.

"Where is he?"

When the conversation reached this point, Zhang Hao looked somewhat troubled as he spoke. "Ah, Master, prepare yourself mentally. He may not be living very well."

Bai He wondered inwardly. That should not be the case. How could Xu Feng be doing badly? As long as he did not provoke some major figure, even if he could not defeat his opponent, he should still be able to escape.

...

Overnight, Bai He and Ye Shiyuan followed Zhang Hao all the way to the northern part of Heiyuan City.

"Ciyun Mansion?" This was Bai He’s first time coming to this place.

"Mm, Ciyun Mansion. Ciyun Mansion was established by someone who had lived here for nearly a hundred years. Although everyone here still belongs to Heiyuan City, they are somewhat different from the others."

Ciyun Mansion had been mentioned in the original story. When Bai He learned that Xu Feng was in Ciyun Mansion, he actually did not find it surprising.

After all... A sense of uneasiness surfaced in his heart. At this point in time, Xu Feng had already come to Ciyun Mansion. Was there really nothing strange about that?
