"I see!" Yu Xiaochen nodded. "Yu Bing's letter gives us an excuse not to stand up for House Yu!"
"Naturally!" Elder Yu nodded, "I'll leave these two letters to you- give one to Ning, tell her to come visit me when she's free, I want to have a good talk with her! You know what to do with the other one, right? "
"Understood, I'll go look for Yu Huoxing right now!" Xiaochen said.
Yu Huoxing was overjoyed to hear that Yu Xiaochen was looking for him so quickly, thinking that House Yu was going to help the common House Yu. He quickly came to Yu Xiaochen's room and spoke respectfully, "House Yu, may I ask what the elder said? Are you going to avenge our common House Yu? After all, we've been working hard all these years, helping the Hidden House Yu earn money. We've been handing over most of it. "
"Huoxing, it's not that I don't want to help you, but how can we help you with what you've done?" Xiaochen's face was dark. "Do you think that we, the Hidden House Yus, are idiots?"
"Ah?" Yu Huoxing paused, not understanding what Yu Xiaochen was talking about. "House Head … What … What do you mean?" Yu Huoxing asked nervously.
"What do I mean? Hmph, take a look at this letter yourself! " With that, Yu Xiaochen tossed Yu Bing's letter to Yu Huoxing- other than greetings to the family, it also talked about Yu Huoxing- there weren't any secrets that he couldn't let Yu Huoxing-
"Letter? What letter? " Yu Huoxing looked at Xiaochen's face and had a bad feeling. He carefully took the letter from Xiaochen's hands, but he was a little surprised- this was a letter from home, what did it have to do with him?
It seemed like it was from one of House Yu's juniors. Yu Huoxing looked at the signature and saw that it was Yu Bing. He was even more surprised, but he still read it patiently! After all, Xiaochen wouldn't just give him a letter for nothing- there had to be a reason.
But when Yu Huoxing read that Yu Bing didn't hand over the qi gathering pill, his face changed drastically! He didn't understand. How did someone know about this secret back then? I saw the news a few days ago. Weren't the couple, Blackie, and the other grave robbers caught in one fell swoop? Who else knows about this?
But no matter what, this matter was exposed, and Yu Bing's tone was very certain. This meant that he had solid proof, and Yu Huoxing couldn't deny it! If Yu Bing had used a 'maybe' or 'guess' tone, then Yu Huoxing would've had some room to maneuver. ("")
"House Head Yu … I … I …" Yu Huoxing was scared, not knowing how Xiaochen was going to deal with him. He couldn't find an excuse, could it be that the pill was given to the hidden House Zhao?
If he were to tell the truth, not only would he not be able to avenge House Yu, he might even be slapped to death by Yu Xiaochen! So Yu Huoxing's mind raced, trying to think of a reasonable excuse to avoid House Yu's blame!
"Me what? Can't think of an excuse anymore? "Xiaochen laughed coldly.
"No … I'm … I'm a bit embarrassed to say it …" Yu Huoxing lowered his head. He'd already thought of an excuse, and he pretended to be embarrassed.
"What's there to be embarrassed about?" Xiaochen frowned.
"Actually … In the tomb, the male thief was Lin Yi!" Yu Huoxing started making up a story. He thought of a way to avoid responsibility and frame Lin Yi at the same time! This way, the hidden House Yu would target Lin Yi, and Lin Yi would be done for!
"The male thief was Lin Yi?" Xiaochen paused, "Then how could the male thief be Lin Yi? Plus, even if it was Lin Yi, what does that have to do with you not handing over the pill? "
"I'm ashamed to say that my pill was stolen by Lin Yi!" Yu Huoxing said sadly.
"Your pill was stolen by Lin Yi? According to what I know, Lin Yi was only a Mystic mid phase peak before he went to the test, right? You were already an Earth class early phase at that time, and you were still scared of Lin Yi? "Xiaochen felt that Yu Huoxing's words were a bit strange.
"So, that's why I didn't dare tell you the truth!" Yu Huoxing said angrily, "That Lin Yi may be a Mystic mid phase peak, but he has a trump card that's really strong, and I was poisoned … Yes, poisoned- even if I was an Earth class, I wouldn't be Lin Yi's opponent! And so my pill was stolen by Lin Yi … "
"Then why didn't you say so earlier?" Xiaochen wasn't an idiot- Yu Huoxing's words weren't very detailed, and he couldn't just believe it.
"I was afraid of losing face, wasn't I? I'm an Earth class early phase, and my pill was stolen by a Mystic mid phase peak! How would I be able to face anyone if this got out? " Yu Huoxing said with a sad face, "House Head, but you know that Lin Yi does have some tricks up his sleeves, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to kill my brother! After my brother took the pill, he was on par with an Earth class early phase peak, and since Lin Yi can fight above his level, then … "
"I know that Lin Yi has some special abilities, of course, I don't need you to explain!" Xiaochen waved his hand. He knew Lin Yi very well- this guy was able to make Feng Nitian and Zhang Naipao, two disciples from the ancient houses and sects, lose to him- he definitely wasn't a simple character!
The question was, how trustworthy could Yu Huoxing's words be?
"Yes … I'm sorry, House Head Yu, I hid the truth before because I was afraid of being punished by the house …" Yu Huoxing said carefully.
"Are you telling the truth?" Xiaochen frowned.
"Of course, I don't dare hide anything!" Yu Huoxing said in fear.
"If that's the case, then I'll write a letter and ask Yu Bing if Lin Yi really took the pill!" Xiaochen said coldly, as if he didn't believe Yu Huoxing's words.
But in reality, Xiaochen believed most of it already! Yu Bing was on good terms with Lin Yi during the test, so the news of Yu Huoxing getting the pill was most likely from Lin Yi as well. Lin Yi and the common House Yu were enemies, and Lin Yi was probably trying to use Yu Bing to spread the news to the hidden House Yu, and have them deal with Yu Huoxing, or at least not participate in the battle between Lin Yi and the common House Yu!
