Chapter 502 – Doubt
"Hmm?" In the front carriage, an old man in a red robe suddenly opened his eyes. A strange light flashed across his eyes as he looked in the courtyard's direction in doubt. A flame imprint was emitting a blood-like dense glow in the middle of his forehead, making him appear imposing.
"What's wrong, Elder Yan?" A young man in a golden robe who sat opposite the old man asked curiously upon seeing the latter's action. He looked extremely young as a man in his early twenties. He had a handsome face with a hint of arrogance between his eyebrows. His name was Wu Tianwei, the third young master of the Mystic Pavilion.
The old man, Elder Yan, retracted his gaze and replied with a smile. "It's nothing, Third Young Master. I perceived a trace of movement in the courtyard earlier, but it seems I am overthinking."
Wu Tianwei laughed slightly, appearing unbothered. "How could someone escape from Elder Yan's mighty Spiritual Sense?" He didn't believe in the slightest if someone could slip through Elder Yan's perception. Especially in this remote place where a bird didn't shit.
Elder Yan gave a smile and closed his eyes, returning to his meditative state. If Yun Lintian was here, he would immediately notice this old man's aura. This person actually possessed the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm's strength. With just a sneeze from him, everything in a hundred kilometers radius would be vaporized instantly.
At this moment, the coachman knocked on the carriage's door and reported respectfully. "Young Master, the house is ready."
Wu Tianwei stretched his body lazily and said. "Let's go."
He and Elder Yan followed the coachman into Yu Lang's courtyard and found Yu Teng standing in the living room with cold faces. His eyes were bloodshot, staring at Wu Tianwei as though they wanted to eat him alive.
Besides him, Yu Lang was lying on a long table, trying to recover from his severe injuries. His complexion wasn't good, but he still endured the pain and glared at Wu Tianwei fiercely.
Wu Tianwei glanced at them and let out a chuckle. "Long time no see, Grandpa Yu and Uncle Yu… Where are Xiaoya and Xiaolu?"
"I didn't dare to be called uncle by you, Young Master Wu. As for my daughters' whereabouts, please forgive me. I'm afraid I can't tell you." Yu Lang replied coldly. At the same time, he was relieved in his heart. It must be Yun Lintian brought his daughters away in time.
"Look like you didn't learn your lesson, huh?" The coachman said coldly and prepared to make a move. However, he was stopped by Wu Tianwei first.
Wu Tianwei laughed heartily while waving his hand. "It's fine. I'm afraid he can't hold on further if you make another move." He glanced around the house and nodded his head in satisfaction. "Not bad. This place is quite cozy. I like it… I have to trouble Uncle Yu and Grandpa Yu during this period."
"My pleasure." Yu Lang gritted his teeth, looking at Wu Tianwei with hatred.
Wu Tianwei smiled faintly and turned to the coachman. "Where is my room?"
"This way, Young Master." The coachman led Wu Tianwei to the guest room that Yun Lintian had previously resided. "I have already changed all the quilts and mattresses. Please enjoy your rest, Young Master."
Wu Tianwei nodded his head with satisfaction and said. "Very good. You've worked hard. I'll reward you with the Red Lotus Dancing Hall's ticket when we go back."
The coachman became ecstasy upon hearing this. The Red Lotus Dancing Hall's ticket was considered priceless for a servant like him. With this, he could enjoy all the privileges without spending a single coin.
"Thank you, Young Master." The coachman hurriedly bowed his head.
Wu Tianwei waved his hand and sat on the bed. "Go ahead. Notify me when the rain comes."
"Yes, Young Master." The coachman responded and respectfully retreated from the room.
"Strange… There seems to be a trace of aura in this room." Elder Yan looked around the room in doubt. His Spiritual Sense silently spread out and swept over every corner of the room carefully. However, he could not pinpoint whose the aura belonged to.
This time, Wu Tianwei didn't brush Elder Yan's doubt off as he did before. It was impossible for Elder Yan to make two mistakes in a row. He began to search the whole room and couldn't even find a single trace of the aura that Elder Yan mentioned.
"What did you find, Elder Yan?" Wu Tianwei asked.
Elder Yan replied while frowning. "Someone had lived here before we came… This person should have left not long ago." The more he thought, the more confident he became. The previous perception must be corrected. Someone had indeed slipped away from this place under his nose.
Wu Tianwei didn't doubt Elder Yan's words. He sent a voice transmission to the coachman, and the latter hurriedly arrived in the room.
"What's your instruction, Young Master?" The coachman asked while lowering his head… Young Master shouldn't be dissatisfied with my arrangement, right?
Wu Tianwei waved his hand and said. "Bring Grandpa Yu and Uncle Yu here. I have something to ask them."
A moment later, the coachman brought Yu Teng and Yu Lang to the room and said coldly. "Just answer my young master truthfully."
Yu Teng and Yu Lang still wore cold faces when facing Wu Tianwei. They could faintly guess what Wu Tianwei wanted to ask and determined not to tell him, even if it cost their lives.
Wu Tianwei smiled faintly as he asked. "Grandpa Yu, Uncle Yu. Can you tell me where the person who once stayed here is?" He paused for a moment and added. "This person must be the one that brought your daughters away. Am I correct?"
Yu Lang sneered. "So what? Do you think I will tell you?"
"So there really is someone here." Wu Tianwei chuckled.
His words made Yu Lang realize his mistake. From the beginning, Wu Tianwei wasn't sure about it at all.
Yu Teng sighed inwardly. He wanted to remind Yu Lang, but it was too late already. He could only close his eyes and resign to fate.. Anyway, his granddaughters should be safe in Yun Lintian's hands.
