Moreover, Plant Sage knew more about the inner workings of the Holy Court and were thinking of even more scenarios.
After being silent for a moment, Plant Sage solemnly looked at Sage Cai: “There is something fishy about this situation, it will be great if Sage Cai can join us and go to the Holy Court to take a look as well.”
Sage Cai hesitated for a moment before rejecting: “It is better if I do not get too involved with the Holy Court, it is enough that Brat Ya is accompanying you. As for the items we agreed on, I will get someone to head over to collect it, do not try to bilk!”
Plant Sage felt that Sage Cai’s words were logical as well; Plant Cai was trying to avoid doing anything that may arouse suspicion, so he did not force the request. However, hearing Sage Cai’s last sentence caused this good-natured sage’s face to turn black.
Feeling like Sage Cai was an eyesore, he turned and looked at Ji Mo Ya instead.
Ji Mo Ya was expressionlessly looking at the empty space, Plant Sage was unable to see what this boy was thinking about right now.
Suddenly feeling slightly guilty, before thinking deeply, this was all Wine Sage’s fault, why did he have to be extorted by Sage Cai? Fortunately, at least half of the things he promised were the Wine Sage’s collections. When Plant Sage imagined that Wine Sage would be bleeding good stuff, the former felt much more comfortable.
Ji Mo Ya ignored the gaze of Plant Sage, he has been silent ever since the journey, quietly staring at a direction, no one could guess what he was thinking.
Plant Sage felt that he should not have left home, he might have seen and acquired gossip on this trip, but he also lost the Heaven Sage Dew and was even forced to become a mediator.
Dammit! It was all because of Wine Sage that old fella not wanting to come out, he must have guessed that nothing good would happen when Crazy Sage and Sage Cai were placed together.
How can he be so silly, this incident was caused by Wine Sage, Brat Ya already said that he was unwilling to continue with the plan, yet Wine Sage insisted and used the name of protecting humanity.
His insistence caused the boy’s wife to run away, lost his child and caused his mother to be under house arrest.
When the old man looked at Brat Ya’s face, he could not help but feel deep regret. They owed Ji Mo Ya a great favor now, it would be embarrassing to get his help in the future!

Shang Qiu Meng Qian returned to the Bai Li Clan.
Requesting to meet the Bai Li Clan Patriarch.
Bai Li Ren had just sent all the guests off and has yet to call for a clan meeting, today’s ceremony was worth celebrating, it can help to sweep away the bad atmosphere that they were experiencing over the past few months.
When Bai Li Ren heard Shang Qiu Meng Qian had requested for a meeting, he could not help but display an ugly expression.
Yet Bai Li Ren had no choice but to meet Shang Qiu Meng Qian, he could only wear an unhappy expression and let Shang Qiu Meng Qian in.
Shang Qiu Meng Qian displayed a humble attitude when he saw Bai Li Ren again.
He went straight to the topic and formally requested to marry Huan Qing Yan.
Bai Li Ren did not show it on his face, but he was feeling happy inside.
As expected of a good daughter sought by many clans, the Ji Mo Clan had just left, yet the Shang Qiu Clan appeared to grab onto the opportunity.
However, as the elder of the female side, he naturally has to be discreet and humble.
This was Bai Li Ren’s specialty!
He maintained a calm face, not even twitching his brow as he took up the teacup to take a sip and indifferently replied: “Nephew Shang Qiu, this old man will thank you for your kind intentions on behalf of Yan Lass. Yan Lass had only recently returned to the clan, we did not even have enough time to dote on her, plus she has a history with that Ji Mo Brat. You should know about it, you do not mind?”
He brought up the ugly side of the matter first for the sake of the lass and he was also not in a hurry to accept any marriage proposals from anyone.
Everyone under the sky knew about Yan Lass and Ji Mo Ya, there was nothing to hide as well. Better bring it up onto the table first and make this clear before anything could be discussed.
