Chapter 174 - Compromise Of The Shao Family

Chapter 174: Compromise Of The Shao Family

Chen Yan and General Manager Zhao acted as though they did not hear the subtext of his words. They were all thousand-year-old foxes, and had to maintain a superficial cordiality.

General Manager Zhao laughed heartily. “Master Shao, don’t think that we’re talking too much. We’re just concerned. Moreover, this Lin Bai is indeed useful to our City Lord. If there really is a misunderstanding, we can help resolve it.”

Although Shao Feng was dissatisfied with Chen Yan and General Manager Zhao’s actions, they were still from the City Lord’s Estate. He had to give them some face, so he could only force a smile.

After General Manager Zhao listened to Shao Feng and Lin Bai’s account, although Lin Bai was a suspect, there was indeed insufficient evidence. What could a blurry scene that was sent back prove?

The members of the Shao family had never seen Lin Bai’s wooden sword with their own eyes. If they were mistaken, wouldn’t they be killing innocent people.

“Master Shao, I think what Alchemist Chen said makes sense. Why don’t you let us take Lin Bai away first? We’ll also take good care of him. During this period, you can re-investigate. This way, we can avoid falsely accusing good people, and we can also take Lin Bai back to report to the higher-ups. Wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone?”

However, Shao Feng did not agree. If Lin Bai escaped, then who would he go to to reason with? Moreover, Chen Yan was here. Although he said it was fair and just, the two of them were old acquaintances. Who knew if he would help Lin Bai escape?

Seeing that Chen Yan and Manager Zhao were exchanging words, Shao Feng said stiffly, “Please forgive me for not being able to comply!”

“My son died too tragically outside. Now that the murderer is right in front of us, if I let him go, I simply don’t deserve to be a father.”

Seeing that Shao Feng was so stubborn, General Manager Zhao’s smile gradually disappeared.

“Master Shao, I know that our request is difficult, but I also hope that you can consider for us. The City Lord’s Estate is heavily guarded. Not even a fly can fly out. Lin Bai will definitely not be able to escape. What else is there for you to be worried about?”

“It’s not that I’m worried about the City Lord’s Estate. It’s just that I’m worried about someone. Please don’t mind it, Chief Zhao.” Shao Feng’s gaze fell on Chen Yan. The meaning behind his words was self-evident.

He was just short of mentioning that Chen Yan would let Lin Bai go.

However, Chen Yan’s intention to save Lin Bai was true. However, he really did not think of helping him escape. After all, the City Lord’s Estate still had a mess to settle. He had asked Lin Bai to go over and save someone. Even if Lin Bai wanted to escape, he would not agree to it unless Lin Bai saved that person first.

“Don’t worry, Master Shao. I can distinguish between private and proper matters. I really have something important to ask of Lin Bai to go to the City Lord Estate. It’s definitely not for some private matter. You can rest assured about this.”

Even so, Shao Feng did not have any intention of relenting. “Then tell me. Lin Bai is just a kid from the countryside. What is so special about him that for him to be invited to the City Lord’s Estate? Who would believe this?”

Chen Yan could not tell him that the City Lord was in imminent danger. They wanted to try a last resort. As long as there was even the slightest possibility, they would not give up. Chen Yan had great expectations for Lin Bai.

Chen Yan could not say a word. In Shao Feng’s eyes, Chen Yan seemed guilty. He would not let Lin Bai go so easily.

General Manager Zhao knew the inside story, he could not help but say, “This is a secret related to the City Lord’s Estate. We can’t tell outsiders so easily. If Master Shao is so curious, you’d better be mentally prepared. Once it gets out, I’m afraid that your entire Shao family will –”

He was expressionless, and there was a hint of killing intent in his words. It did not seem like he was joking. Shao Feng showed some hesitation on his face.

It must be known that General Manager Zhao did not have a good impression of Lin Bai previously. It was probably because he was a little angry about the incident with the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf. However, he was now speaking up for Lin Bai.

Although Chen Yan had a powerful master, it was not enough for a person like General Manager Zhao to go through so much trouble just to protect Lin Bai.

“Don’t worry, Master Shao. I will put it here today. As long as Lin Bai is in the City Lord’s Estate, we will definitely keep an eye on him and won’t let him escape. You should carefully consider which is more important.”

In the end, General Manager Zhao added, “I hope that Master Zhao can understand that it’s not me or Alchemist Chen who wants him, but the City Lord’s who wants him!”

Seeing General Manager Zhao’s solemn expression, Shao Feng thought that no matter how bold he was, he would not dare to use the City Lord as an excuse. Shao Feng had no choice but to say, “Then we’ll do as you say.”

The Shao family could not afford to offend the City Lord’s Estate. Since it was the City Lord’s people, and with General Manager Zhao’s guarantee, he had no choice but to hand Lin Bai over.

Even so, he was worried that Lin Bai would still think of ways to escape. Shao Feng said meaningfully, “You can escape, the monk can’t escape but not the temple. Don’t forget that you still have so many senior and junior brothers here.”

Lin Bai only smiled faintly at this. “Those who are innocent will be innocent, and those who are unclean will be unclean. I hope that Master Shao will properly investigate during this period of time and find the real murderer.”

Seeing that Lin Bai was taken away by the people from the City Lord’s Estate, the people from the Shao family were somewhat unwilling, especially the third elder. He was about to deal with Lin Bai, but in the end, he was actually taken away by the people from the City Lord’s Estate at the last moment.

“Family head, are you just going to let them take Lin Bai away like that? They say nice things, but who knows if they’ll do that. If they let Lin Bai escape in private, that kid is very cunning. I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for us to find him again.”

Shao Feng clenched his fists. Although he did not want to, he could not help but twist his leg.

“Don’t tell me that you want me to go against the City Lord’s Estate?”

Unless the Shao family did not want to stay in the capital city anymore. Even if the Shao family was powerful, they could not compete with the City Lord.

The third elder understood the stakes and immediately stopped talking..
