Squinting Eyes
"Your Majesty, Lu Wei's cultivation is too weak. She won't be of much help in West Mountain City, why don't …" Ning Yue rose from his chair and suggested as soon as Ouyang Ba finished his sentence.
West Mountain City was a chaotic place. Even if Ning Yue were to head there, he would not be able to guarantee his survival, let alone Lu Wei who had a low cultivation base.
In other words, if Lu Wei were to head to West Mountain City, she would be killed within a day.
"Ning Yue, I know you're concerned about Lu Wei's safety, but I can tell you one thing." Ouyang Ba waved his hand and interrupted Ning Yue's words, "With Hai 'er around, Lu Wei won't be in danger."
"Hehe, Ning Yue, don't worry. Leave the important task of taking care of Lu Wei to me."
At that instant, Ouyang Hai said with a sinister smile, "When you head to West Mountain City, I'll give you a complete Lu Wei."
"You!"
Feng Zi clenched his teeth furiously after hearing Ouyang Hai's words. He immediately stood up from his chair.
However, just as Feng Zi was about to lose his temper, Ning Yue glared at him.
Feng Zi instantly quietened down after being glared at by Ning Yue and sat down unwillingly.
"Your Majesty, is there no room for negotiation?" Ning Yue turned to Ouyang Ba and said in a deep voice.
"There's room for negotiation, but I'm afraid you won't agree to it." Ouyang Ba slammed his palm on the table again and said.
"Tell me about it." Now that things had come to this, Ning Yue had no choice but to take the risk.
After all, asking Lu Wei to head to West Mountain City was no different than sending her to her death.
"Like I said before, you and Hai 'er will head to West Mountain City together." Ouyang Ba shrugged and said.
"When will you be back from West Mountain City?" Ning Yue asked with a frown.
"That's hard to say. As long as you can quell the unrest in West Mountain City, you can immediately return."
The meaning behind Ouyang Ba's words was very clear. As long as the chaos in West Mountain City was not settled, they would not be allowed to return to the capital!
"When are we leaving?" Ning Yue asked again.
"Let's go now!" Ouyang Ba said in a cold voice, leaving no room for negotiation.
As he spoke, Ouyang Ba rose from his chair and waved his hand, causing the surrounding space to crack.
Xiu!
Then, a figure appeared.
"Elder Tan!"
Looking at the figure that suddenly appeared, Ning Yue's expression was a little ugly.
The reason why Ouyang Ba called Old Man Tan out was obvious. It was to ensure that Old Man Tan could follow Ouyang Hai to the West Mountain City.
"Old Tan, have you prepared the things I asked you to prepare?" Ouyang Ba asked when he saw Old Tan.
"I'm ready."
Elder Tan reached into his pocket and took out two white pills.
After receiving the white pills from Old Tan's hand, Ouyang Ba flicked his wrist and threw one toward Ning Yue and the other toward Ouyang Hai.
Slap!
Ning Yue glanced at them and reached out his hand, grabbing the pills firmly.
"This is … the Origin Chasing Pill!" Ning Yue's face turned ugly to the extreme when he sensed the smell coming from the pill in his hand.
The Origin Chasing Pill was a peak fifth-grade pill.
Although the Origin Chasing Pill was only a fifth-grade pill, its effect was quite unique. Once it was swallowed, it would leave a unique smell on one's body.
With the help of the unique smell and a secret technique, one could easily find him!
"That's right, it's the Origin Chasing Pill."
Ouyang Ba did not deny it, but explained, "West Mountain City is very dangerous. To ensure your and Hai 'er's safety, I've asked someone to refine two Origin Chasing Pills.
"Consume the Origin Chasing Pill. No matter where you and Hai 'er are in West Mountain City, I'll send someone to find you."
"Thank you, father." Ouyang Hai did not hesitate and immediately swallowed the Origin Chasing Pill.
At the same time, he stared at Ning Yue provocatively.
Kacha!
Ning Yue was too lazy to care about Ouyang Hai. He tossed the Origin Chasing Pill into his mouth and chewed it.
"Good, very good."
Seeing Ning Yue swallow the Origin Chasing Pill, Ouyang Ba nodded and said, "Let's not waste any more time. Ning Yue, set off with Hai 'er now …"
Upon saying this, Ouyang Ba paused for a moment before he continued, "The journey to West Mountain City is long, and there's a high chance that you'll encounter danger along the way. I'll ask Old Tan to go with you so that you can look after each other."
"Emperor, before we go to West Mountain City, I hope to send Lu Wei to Danwu College."
Ning Yue hesitated for a moment before he said, "The country hasn't been very peaceful lately. I'm afraid that Lu Wei might be in danger."
"You don't have to worry about Lu Wei anymore. With Fengzi around, what's there to worry about?"
Ouyang Ba obviously did not want Ning Yue to have any contact with Danwu College. He said, "Even if you think that Fengzi is weak, there's still Li Tongtian. If the two of them join forces, I'm afraid even a Yin Yang State martial artist would have to give up."
"This is not negotiable. I must send Lu Wei to Danwu College personally," Ning Yue said in a deep voice, his tone unquestionable.
Although Ouyang Ba was putting it nicely, Ning Yue knew that he was only saying one thing in front of Ning Yue and another behind his back.
Since he had 'invited' Lu Wei here, he must be up to no good.
If Lu Wei was trapped in the palace after he left, wouldn't he have no tears to shed?
"Ning Yue, how can you talk to father like that!"
However, before Ouyang Ba could speak, Ouyang Hai harrumphed, "I advise you to apologize to father, or else …"
"It's fine, I know Ning Yue cares about Lu Wei." Ouyang Ba interrupted Ouyang Hai and said, "I allow Ning Yue to send Lu Wei to Danwu College."
"Are you serious?" Ning Yue raised his eyebrows, feeling that something was not right.
"Yes," Ouyang Ba said.
"Let's go!"
After receiving Ouyang Ba's confirmation, Ning Yue immediately left his seat and went to Lu Wei's side.
Ning Yue grabbed Lu Wei's hand and left the hall in a flash.
Feng Zi quickly followed behind Ning Yue.
"Your Majesty, farewell!"
As for Li Tongtian, he bid farewell to Ouyang Ba in a hurry and chased after Ning Yue.
Seeing that Ning Yue and the rest had left the hall, Ouyang Hai was stunned and did not move an inch.
"What are you waiting for? Once Ning Yue sends Lu Wei to Danwu College, you'll head to West Mountain City with him! "Ouyang Ba said coldly when he saw Ouyang Hai's stunned expression.
"Yes, yes, I'll go now."
Hearing Ouyang Ba's scolding, Ouyang Hai immediately left the hall.
Old Tan had already received Ouyang Ba's order. He followed Ouyang Hai closely after he left the hall.
The initially noisy hall became quiet again after Ning Yue and the rest left.
Thump! Thump! Thump! …
When everything quietened down, Ouyang Ba knocked on the table out of habit again.
Buzz buzz!
Soon, a crack appeared in the space beside Ouyang Ba and an old man appeared.
"Evil Eye, we can't let Ning Yue and the rest enter Danwu College no matter what."
