Imparting My Cultivation To Beasts Gets Me 10,000X In Return! Chapter 280 - Great Actor

Chapter 280 Great Actor

In the cave, the thin man lowered his head and stood at the entrance of the cave, not daring to make a sound. He could vaguely feel a bone-chilling aura slowly rising in the cave, making people feel as if there was a blade on their back.

On the other side, fatty’s expression was as complicated as the thin man’s. The only difference was that the beads of sweat on his forehead were dripping onto the ground like water.

The City Lord stood in the depths of the cave with his back facing the skinny man and the fatty. Even though no one could see his current expression, everyone could guess how bad his expression would be.

“City Lord, we haven’t found any traces of anyone.”

A person shivered and respectfully reported the investigation.

The City Lord didn’t say a word. That person was still kneeling on one knee and didn’t dare to get up. The atmosphere in the cave froze. It was clearly still sumr, but the temperature here was as if it was winter. With every breath, one could feel the cold air piercing through their lungs, suffocating them.

“City Lord! We found corpses here, scattered and buried in the forest!”

At this ti, another person broke the suffocating atmosphere in the cave and reported the results of their investigation in the forest.

“Bring there!”

This was the first ti the City Lord spoke. He imdiately turned around and ca to a place three hundred ters away from the east side of the cave with that person.

Beside a huge rock, there were pits everywhere. In those pits were nurous corpses and dense white bones. Other than that, there was nothing else.

For so reason, the thin man could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

“We can’t tell the true identity of these corpses. We can’t be sure if they are Mr. He’s n or Chu Shan’s n…”

The person who ca to report the news added on. This ti, his expression was a little nervous.

If they could not confirm the true identity of the corpses, it ant that they could not confirm whether the information the thin man and the fat man gave was true or false.

He had been by the City Lord’s side for a period of ti, so he naturally knew when the City Lord would lose his temper, such as the current situation.

However, they could not be blad for this. Lin Bai had previously ordered the thin man and the others to lt the bodies to hide the true identity of the corpses. They naturally also cleaned up the other items that could prove their identities. They also cleaned up everything.

Crack Crack Crack!

Everyone heard a series of crisp sounds. The City Lord clenched his fists tightly and let out a chilling sound.

“Continue searching for . There must be sothing left behind sowhere!”

The City Lord’s face beca gloomy. Just then, it was slightly trembling. It could be seen that he was suppressing his emotions to the extre.

“Yes!” The person who reported the situation quickly replied. Then, he turned to his subordinates behind him and said, “Subordinates, be quick. This is the key to capturing great demon Lin Bai. We must find sothing from here!”

Other than this team, there was also another team that was looking for traces of Lin Bai. Unfortunately, they were afraid that they would return empty-handed. That would still an that they would have to face the City Lord’s monstrous fury.

The thin man felt sad for them for three seconds.

“Where’s Bai Xi?”

The City Lord asked coldly again.

“I, I just sent soone to call her.”

Soone replied. His voice was trembling, and he did not have any confidence.

“Trash, good-for-nothing! Do you know that this is the crucial mont to capture the demon, and you actually didn’t do a good job, and even let the demon escape! He Qingyuan is the sa, Chu Shan is also trash! Good-for-nothing! Useless things!” The City Lord couldn’t hold it in any longer and started to explode, spewing out unpleasant words.

He never would have thought that Lin Bai would first go the opposite way and hide in the city, and then after that, he escaped from death and attacked He Qingyuan!

This action of moving around under his eyes without any fear made the City Lord feel that Lin Bai was ruthlessly slapping his face!

The City Lord spat out a long line and turned around. When he saw the thin man and fatty again, he said fiercely, “And the two of you! You actually had selfish motives at the critical mont of capturing Lin Bai. Trash! You actually didn’t ask for reinforcents at the first mont!”

The thin man and fatty quivered and hurriedly apologized, allowing the City Lord to scold them.

After a long while, the City Lord finally let out a long sigh of relief and cald down.

“City Lord, Bai Xi is here!”

A person led the way in front. Behind him, there was Bai Xi whose face was at a loss as she looked around in a daze. When she saw those dense white bones, she was shocked.

When the fatty and the skinny man saw Bai Xi was a natural actor, they gave her a thumbs up in their hearts. If the two of them were one-tenth of Bai Xi, they would not have been suspected by the City Lord until now.

“City Lord, May I know where this is?!”

Bai Xi’s eyes widened, and before the City Lord could speak, she was the first to ask.

The City Lord sized up Bai Xi from head to toe. Bai Xi’s white clothes were neat and clean, and in the end, his gaze stopped at Bai Xi’s eyes.

Bai Xi did not know why she felt as if he had been cut open by a knife and seen clearly by others. However, she still looked extrely shocked. If she was to reveal herself now, the consequences would be obvious.

“Co, you two speak.” The City Lord used his eyes to signal to fatty and the thin man.

“Yes!” The thin man quickly walked to the side. “It’s like this, last night…”

Following that, the thin man told Bai Xi what he had told the City Lord. Bai Xi’s expression changed from shock to astonishnt, and then to bewildernt.

“You said that Chu Shan defected to Lin Bai, and that Mr. He has gone missing?!”

Bai Xi turned pale with fright, as if she couldn’t believe what she had heard.

The thin man’s lips curled up. She was really good at acting

“It’s like this.” The City Lord nodded. “I wonder why Lin Bai went to your place last night. Do you have any thoughts? If he had any contact with you, tell now and I’ll spare your life.”

The City Lord’s voice was very calm, but there was an invisible pressure that made Bai Xi and the other two feel as if there was a mountain on their foreheads.

“City Lord, how could I et the demon? If I saw Lin Bai, I would kill him first. He was my forr friend and he fell into the demonic path. As a friend, I didn’t notice this change in him. I was also at fault! As Lin Bai’s friend, I should kill him and help him get rid of the pain of falling into the demon path!” What Bai Xi said was so impassioned that fatty almost thought that Bai Xi had defected.

The City Lord waved his hand, signaling for Bai Xi to stop. He still rembered the last ti he had talked to Bai Xi about Lin Bai. Bai Xi still had an incredulous look on her face. Coupled with what she had said today… Could it be?

The City Lord frowned. It looked like they would not find anything in this forest, so he signaled for everyone to stop work and go search for Lin Bai, leaving the thin man, fatty, and Bai Xi behind.

The City Lord touched his chin and placed his other hand behind his back, he said slowly, “I believe that you guys have nothing to do with Lin Bai. It seems that Chu Shan has indeed listened to the rumors of the demon. If I see Chu Shan in the future, he will definitely regret it. Let’s not talk about this anymore. I still have sothing to tell you.”
