Duan Jianyu started questioning the won about their work at the fourth prince’s mansion. They answered it truthfully when they saw the guards line up and watch them like a hawk.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard managed to catch most of the servants. However, only a small number of people were missing. After further investigation, they found the whereabouts of the people except for one person.
That person had been hired recently. After working for two weeks, she vanished. The butler of the fourth prince’s mansion did not pay much attention because they had a lot of servants at that ti. The person vanished without getting paid. So, the butler did not think much about her.
Duan Jianyu concluded that this person was the culprit. However, he still could not find her whereabouts. It seed she vanished into thin air. Duan Jianyu asked the servants if they rembered that person. However, that person used to work alone. So, not many people rembered her face.
Duan Jianyu gave his reports to the emperor. The emperor frowned as he listened to Duan Jianyu.
"So, you an you can not find the person?" The emperor asked.
"I am sorry, Your Majesty. I believe that person disguised herself. After completing her work poisoning His Highness the Fourth Prince, she disappeared without any trace. To make things worse, no one in the mansion really rembered her. Even the butler himself just rembered assigning her to work as the bathtub cleaner." Duan Jianyu stated.
The emperor was silent. ’Does this an his son would be a eunuch? No... No... I can not give up. Young Lady Bai probably can do sothing about that.’
So, the emperor dismissed Duan Jianyu. He would send soone to Xianying City to bring Bai Xifeng back to the Capital City.
....
Bai Xifeng just finished beating the beasts sowhere in the Sophia Mountain. She was the one who suggested that her father and brother pass through Sophia Mountain. While passing the mountain, she could have the chance to collect so herbs.
Bai Xifeng also told her father and brother to just watch. She wanted to gain experience from fighting the beasts. It was the fourth day they had stayed at the Sophia Mountain.
"I need so drinks." Bai Xifeng wiped her sweat.
Bai Tingfeng gave so water to his sister.
"Let’s start moving after you take so rest." Bai Xiang said.
"Yes, Father." Bai Xifeng nodded.
After a while, they started to move. When they passed a weird place, Bai Xiang comnted on sothing.
"A phoenix had been rebirth here. A lot of people ca here to get their hands on the divine creature. But unfortunately, soone already snatched it. They did not know who snatched it. So, they started fighting with each other." Bai Xiang said.
"They did not know that our Xixi is the lucky one." Bai Tingfeng laughed.
"That’s right." Bai Xiang nodded.
They continued to walk until they saw a group of people. It seed they were part of a rcenary group. They beca tense when they spotted Bai Xiang and others. They imdiately picked up their weapons.
"What do you want?" The leader of the rcenary group shouted.
Bai Xifeng recognised the leader. It was Chang Jianjun from The Burning Fla rcenary group.
"Chang Jianjun?" Bai Xifeng spoke the na.
Chang Jianjun was stunned to hear his na being spoken by the girl.
"Who are you? How do you know my na?" Chang Jianjun asked.
His weapon was still aid at the three people in front of him.
"I heard about you from Sir Long." Bai Xifeng stated.
"Sir Long?" Chang Jianjun still frowned.
"Oh... You call him, Young Master Long." Bai Xifeng said.
"Oh... Him... " Chang Jianjun beca relaxed when he heard the na.
Of course, he rembered that young boy. That young boy saved him after he got injured.
"How is he? Is he managing to find his father and brother?" Chang Jianjun asked.
"Yes, he did." Bai Xifeng nodded.
"I am sorry for being rude earlier. We t so people who tried to attack us. So, we are just being careful." Chang Jianjun said.
"Are you from the Chang Family in Xianying City?" Bai Xiang asked.
"Yes, I am, but I already left the family a long ti ago." Chang Jianjun stated.
"No wonder, you seem familiar. You look like your grandfather." Bai Xiang said.
"Who are you? Why do you know my grandfather?" Chang Jianjun asked.
"I am Bai Xiang. I t with your grandfather before." Bai Xiang stated.
"Bai Xiang? Wait a minute. That’s Bai Xiang? The general?" Chang Jianjun was shocked.
His group also looked at Bai Xiang in shock. They did not believe they would encounter the famous General Bai at the Sophia Mountain.
"Well, I am indeed a General." Bai Xiang admitted.
"What are you doing here? In the Sophia Mountain?" Chang Jianjun asked again.
"My children and I are heading to Xianying City." Bai Xiang said.
Bai Xiang ntioned his children. So, the man must be Bai Tingfeng, and the girl must be Bai Xifeng. From what he heard, Bai Xifeng was soone ugly. But the girl in front of him right now was a beauty. The rumour must be lying.
"Why do you take this route? It is dangerous. A lot of fierce beasts are lurking around." Chang Jianjun expressed his concern.
He knew that Bai Xiang was strong, but he had his son and daughter travel with him. His son might be fine, but his daughter would be in danger if he were careless.
