"Chengfeng, where's Jiang Shanshui? You're not really going to let him go, are you? "
Seeing Ye Chenfeng walk out of the house covered in blood, Bai Xiya immediately went up to him and asked worriedly.
"Jiang Shanshui is already dead." Ye Chenfeng said in a low voice, looking at Bai Xiya with a burning gaze.
Although he wanted to minimize Jiang Shanshui's death, he couldn't bear to kill Bai Xiya and the other person.
Furthermore, he had performed outstandingly in the White Emperor Martial House's year-end assessment and obtained the qualification to enter the Sky Fire Martial House. This would definitely arouse the Jiang Family's suspicion. Thinking about the threat of the Jiang Family, the number one family in the Zi Jin Kingdom, Ye Chenfeng felt that this was a thorny problem.
However, once Ye Chenfeng became a disciple of the Sky Fire Martial House, even if the matter was exposed, the Jiang Family wouldn't dare to directly take revenge on him.
"Great, that scum is finally dead."
"Chengfeng, thank you. You've saved me once again." Bai Xiya let out a long sigh of relief. She looked at Ye Chenfeng with a gentle gaze and said gratefully.
After seeing Ye Chenfeng's powerful strength, Bai Xiya was completely sure that the person she had been searching for and the person who had saved her and Ji Qingxue from the evil clutches last night was Ye Chenfeng.
"Xiya, although Jiang Shanshui deserved to die, if the Jiang Family knew that he died in our hands, not only me, but even your Bai Family will suffer the Jiang Family's bloody revenge." Ye Chenfeng said seriously.
"Young master Ye, don't worry. My Bai Family will take care of everything. We will try our best to hide the fact that Jiang Shanshui died in White Emperor City." The heavily injured Bai Family expert crawled up from the ground and promised.
"That's good!" Ye Chenfeng nodded and said.
He thought that the Bai Family was indeed more afraid of the consequences of Jiang Shanshui's death. After all, with his strength, there was a high chance that he could escape the Jiang Family experts' pursuit. However, the Bai Family had no chance of escaping.
"Chengfeng, I want to talk to you in private. Is that okay?" Bai Xiya blinked her big eyes and looked at Ye Chenfeng expectantly.
"Let me deal with this first, then we can talk outside," Ye Chenfeng guessed the purpose of Bai Xiya looking for him, nodded and said.
"Young Master Ye, leave this to me. I'm good at destroying corpses and erasing evidence. I'll take care of everything here. You and Young Miss can talk outside." The Bai Family expert took a healing pill and stabilized his injuries.
"Well, Shiya, wait for me for a while. I'll change my clothes and come out."
After saying that, Ye Chenfeng returned to the house, wiped off the bloodstains on his body, changed into a bloody robe, and walked out of the house with Bai Xiya.
Because the house Ye Chenfeng rented was very remote and there were few people around, coupled with the darkness of the night, no one was alarmed by the fierce battle just now.
"Chengfeng, the Master Chen who saved my grandfather was you in disguise, right?" Walking on the bumpy dirt road, Bai Xiya kept looking at Ye Chenfeng out of the corner of her eyes.
Looking at his chiseled side profile, which was like a black gem, and staring into his innocent eyes, Bai Xiya's cheeks turned slightly red, and her heart skipped a beat. She took a deep breath, broke the silence, and asked.
"Yes, it's me." Ye Chenfeng nodded and didn't hide it anymore.
Because at this time, some things could no longer be hidden.
"The person who saved me and Qingxue last night was also you, right?" Bai Xiya stopped and looked at Ye Chenfeng up close and asked.
"Yes, the person who saved you last night was also me."
"Since it was you, why didn't you admit it when I recognized you? Why did you disguise yourself when you saved us last night? "Bai Xiya asked the question in her heart.
"If Qingxue knew that the person who saved her last night was you, she would definitely change her opinion of you. Moreover, if you can heal her grandfather's old injury, I think the Ji Family will definitely agree to your marriage."
"Do you really want to hear the truth?" Ye Chenfeng pondered for a moment and asked.
"Yes, I want to hear it very much. Are you willing to tell me?" Bai Xiya nodded and said.
"Okay, I'll tell you, but you must promise me to keep it a secret and not reveal it to a third person." Ye Chenfeng took a deep breath and solemnly instructed.
"I swear, if I mention your secret to a third person, I will be struck by lightning and die a horrible death." Bai Xiya swore in front of everyone.
"Actually, the main reason why I hid everything was because I was hiding it from Qingxue."
The existence of the Soul-Devouring Brain was too heaven-defying, so Ye Chenfeng didn't dare to reveal it easily. He could only push the reason to Qingxue.
"Hiding it from Qingxue? Isn't she your fiancée? Why did you hide it from her? "Bai Xiya asked in puzzlement, the curiosity in her heart growing stronger.
"Fiancée?" Ye Chenfeng laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "That was just an act for outsiders to see. The relationship between us originated from a deal."
Ye Chenfeng briefly told the whole story to Bai Xiya.
"How could this be? How could she be so willful and disregard your safety and use you as a shield? Doesn't she know the danger of this matter?"
When Bai Xiya learned the truth, she immediately felt injustice for Ye Chenfeng. She also understood why Ye Chenfeng kept hiding his secret. It was because he would definitely be killed if he revealed his true strength.
However, in addition to being angry, Bai Xiya was also secretly delighted. Her gaze towards Ye Chenfeng became even gentler.
"Alright, it's getting late. Let's go back."
Although Ye Chenfeng could feel Bai Xiya's affection for him from her eyes, he had vowed to pursue the boundless Dao and cultivate supreme divine abilities. He could only put aside his personal feelings for her.
"Chengfeng, it's best if you don't stay in that place of yours. If you don't mind, you can stay in my house. There are many places you can stay in my house." Bai Xiya invited.
"Thank you, but I will be going to the White Cloud Mountain Range to cultivate and prepare for the White Emperor Martial House's year-end examination in a month." Ye Chenfeng shook his head and tactfully refused Bai Xiya.
"Alright then. If you need anything, you can look for me. I will fully support you." Bai Xiya said with a little disappointment.
"Alright!" Ye Chenfeng nodded and agreed.
When Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xiya returned to the Earth Courtyard side by side, the Bai Family's experts had basically taken care of everything. The bloodstains on the ground and walls were completely covered by the yellow soil. Jiang Shanshui and the others' corpses were dug and buried by them.
Once the thick scent of blood in the air completely dissipated, no one would be able to detect any clues in the courtyard.
Looking at the scene in the courtyard, Ye Chenfeng was very satisfied. If it were him, he definitely wouldn't have been able to do so well.
"Eldest Miss, it's getting late. Let's go back. We need to tell the City Lord and Elder Bai about what happened tonight as soon as possible. Only then can we cover up the truth and divert the Jiang Family's anger." The Bai Family's expert saw Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xiya return and urged them.
"Chengfeng, we'll go first. Take good care of yourself. If you need anything, come find me." Bai Xiya reluctantly said and left with the Bai Family's expert.
