Chapter 428 - Courting Death 2
Glass City, City Lord’s Mansion.
City Lord Bai Zhiyuan was in the pavilion in the garden, looking at an old man in his sixties ingratiatingly.
The old man’s hair and beard were all white. His clothes were extremely luxurious and were made of top-quality heavenly silk.
This material was unique to the Southern Region and was specially used for internal consumption by various forces. Even the royal family of Huan Yun could not purchase this material.
“Uncle, you’ve become the Head Examiner for the assessment in Huan Yun of the Academy Of A Thousand Illusions. Congratulations! Uncle must take care of Young Master during the assessment this time and let him pass smoothly.”
Bai Zhiyuan poured the old man a glass of wine and personally brought it to him.
The Young Master he was referring to was naturally Young Master Bai.
“Of course. Nephew, don’t worry. I’m the Head Examiner this time. I guarantee that he’ll pass the test safely.”
Bai Leiming took the glass of wine and clinked it with Bai Zhiyuan’s.
The two of them smiled at each other and drank the wine.
“Nephew, take these Spirit Stones.”
After Bai Leiming drank a few cups of wine, he poured out a small pile of shiny Spirit Stones from his Space Ring.
“Thank you, Uncle. But Uncle needs more Spirit Stones to build a relationship at the Academy Of A Thousand Illusions.”
Bai Zhiyuan looked at the pile of Spirit Stones in a daze. There were at least 5,000 of them.
Spirit Stones were a scarce resource. Even in Academy Of A Thousand Illusions, they were gathered for the students to cultivate.
It was already good enough for a logistician like Bai Leiming to get a few dozen every month.
“This is nothing. It’s just a small number. You might not know, but there’s a student in Huan City who’s powerful but offended someone from the Academy Of A Thousand Illusions. Someone got me to kill her at the last moment. When she dies, I will have 30,000 Spirit Stones to claim.”
Bai Leiming burped and waved his hand indifferently.
These 5,000 Spirit Stones were the down payment from that lady. They were nothing.
“Uncle, I’ll accept it then.”
Bai Zhiyuan kept the pile of Spirit Stones in his Space Ring. He was rich now. He had never seen so many Spirit Stones in his life.
The two of them continued eating and drinking. The atmosphere was harmonious when a guard from the City Lord Residence suddenly stumbled over and knelt in front of Bai Zhiyuan.
“City Lord, bad news, bad news. Master has been injured!”
This guard was one of the people following Young Master Bai just now. After bringing his Master back, he hurriedly came to inform him.
“What? Who dares to hit my son? They’re asking to be kicked out of Glass City anymore!”
Bai Zhiyuan was furious after hearing the whole story.
When he saw Young Master Bai lying on the bed after being beaten up badly and found out that Young Master Bai would no longer be able to procreate, he was so angry that he flipped the table.
His only precious son had been severely injured by Jun Jianlin’s crippled family and even had his grandchildren’s roots were destroyed!
Young Master Bai was his only son. If his “thing” was crippled, it meant that the Bai Family’s legacy was lost!
He just snatched one of their crystal cards. Did she have to be so petty and vicious!
“Men, capture that crippled Jun Jianlin, his parents, and the woman who kicked Young Master!”
Bai Zhiyuan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
“Yes, City Lord.”
A guard immediately received the order and led a group of people to Jun Jianlin’s house.
