Beiting Huangâs words stunned Zhu Lin for a moment. Not far behind him, Ximen Bai and his son, who were standing, stiffened in unison with disbelief on their faces. No one had expected that Beiting Huang would only use an overlord level treasure pill to exchange for information.
At the fork in the road, under the huge banyan tree, the five humans did not speak. Only Beiting Huangâs magical beasts were silent for a moment before they started discussing enthusiastically again.
However, what they said still did not make Zhu Lin, Ximen Bai, and the others come back to their senses.
âBeiting Huang, you used an overlord treasure pill just to ask me about someone? What if I donât know this person?â Zhu Lin found it unbelievable. The more time he spent with Beiting Huang, the more he felt that he knew him. What he did was even more unpredictable.
âIt doesnât matter if you donât know him!â Beiting Huang smiled. âAfter you get the Soul Returning Pill and return to the Valley of Pills in the 33 Heavens, help me ask around. One day, weâll go to the 33 Heavens and look for you. You wonât turn your back on us, right?â
Zhu Lin was instantly enraged. His face darkened and his eyes burned with anger. âBeiting Huang, am I such a person?â
However, it had to be said that holding the jade bottle containing the Soul Returning Pill in his hand made him feel even heavier. Not only was the grade of this pill too high, but it was also because Beiting Huang trusted him. Why did he trust him so much? Hadnât they always been at odds? Wasnât it good for this damn guy to be very cold? Wasnât it good to make an even harder request?
Not only did Zhu Linâs fierce look not make Beiting Huang glare at him, but she also turned to Ximen Bai and his son and said, âBrother Ximen, I donât know the name of Little Rongâs mother. Come here for a moment!â
Ximen Bai clenched his fists tightly. At this moment, his eyes were actually sparkling. He took a deep breath and walked towards Beiting Huang. As for Ximen Rong, although he was young, he was very sensible because of his childhood experience and understood what his Big Brother and father were talking about.
At this moment, the little guy looked especially nervous. He held his fatherâs robe and followed behind him. His small face was already washed clean. Although he was thin, he was very delicate. He stared at Beiting Huang with his dark eyes.
Beiting Huang reached out and hugged the little guy, patting him gently. âDonât be afraid. One day, youâll find your mother.â
âAre you from the Valley of Pills in the 33 Heavens?â Ximen Bai took a deep breath and lowered his head slightly to calm his emotions. After a long time, he raised his head and tried to make his tone seem calm. âHer name is Zhu Zi. She is my wife and the mother of my son. She was sent to the Valley of Pills in the 33 Heavens by the Central Continent. I wonder how she is now?â
After saying that, Ximen Bai looked at Zhu Lin with a pair of anxious eyes, afraid that he would hear bad news from Zhu Linâs mouth. Seeing Zhu Linâs frown, the expression on Ximen Baiâs face changed constantly. Obviously, at this moment, his heart was very uneasy, and countless thoughts were spinning around.
After a long time, Zhu Linâs brows finally relaxed. He raised his hand and tapped his head with his finger. There was a hint of uncertainty in his voice. âI finally have some impression. I think sheâs my fatherâs thirteenth disciple. Sheâs very beautiful, but sheâs very withdrawn. I donât know if itâs her.â
