My Salted Fish Life in the Beast World

Dao guessed correctly. The entire Yue Mansion, inside and outside, was surrounded by the warriors brought by Ya.

Dao walked into the living room with a calm expression, supported by Uncle Fu. As soon as he stepped over the threshold, Ya came to greet him.

"How are you, father-in-law?" Ya lowered his posture and took the knife's arm from Uncle Fu.

Dao remained calm, allowing Ya to support him and sit in the main seat.

"Cough! Cough!..." Dao finally stopped coughing. "Thank you for coming. I'm sorry for not welcoming you. Please forgive me." Dao looked at the two people who came uninvited and said politely.

"Father-in-law! I'm here this time..."

"The prophet is too kind! I heard that you were recuperating at home. I should have visited you earlier. But the city lord and the Beast King had a big fight a few days ago. I couldn't leave, so I came here today. I hope you won't blame me, sir!" The National Master interrupted Ya and started to practice Tai Chi.

"It's okay! When you get old, illnesses come easily! Cough! Cough! Cough..." Dao said, and started coughing again. Uncle Fu quickly poured him some hot water to help him breathe.

"Father-in-law! I'll ask the witch doctor to come and see me!" Ya stepped forward to take the cup of water. As he spoke, he was about to call the Beast King's special witch doctor.

"No need! Thank you for your concern, Wang. This is all a mental illness and there is no cure. You don't need it. It's a waste of energy." Dao refused.

"But you..."

"I heard that a distinguished guest was coming. I am late!" At this time, Zhao, who had rushed back, strode behind his father and looked at the two of them warily.

"Brother!"

"Master!"

The two of them took the initiative to say hello.

"Hmph! My sister is no longer here. The new king doesn't need to call himself the son-in-law of the Yue family. Your fate with Yue is over. Saying goodbye now is the best ending." Zhao knew the purpose of the two people's coming. He didn't drag his feet and directly cut off their thoughts.

As expected, upon hearing Yue's death, Ya's face turned even paler. He staggered and took a few steps back. Fortunately, he was supported by the national teacher and did not fall.

The Imperial Master helped him sit on the chair. He thought to himself that this was not good. This young master had no regard for the old friendship. He was so cruel to attack his own brother-in-law.

Humph! If Zhao knew what the Imperial Master was thinking, he would curse him and curse his whole family! His sister was betrayed. He endured it and didn't seek revenge, so he should just be happy. He's still trying to be polite? He must have been kicked in the head by a donkey!

The Imperial Master looked at the distraught male cub and shook his head distressedly. When it comes to Yue's affairs, he becomes like this, dying and half-hearted. It seems that he has to take action himself.

"Young Master, you are joking. As far as I know, the eldest lady is not dead. I hope the Prophet will ask you to make an exception and let the king meet her." The Imperial Master stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point.

At this time, Ya also came back to his senses. That's right! Yue is not dead. The investigation of the national teacher and himself must be correct. He wants to see Yue! No one can stop him.

"Father and brother, please, let me see Yue! I will feel relieved as long as I know she is safe. I will never disturb you!" Ya pleaded excitedly.

"I don't believe you!? It's just a pipe dream!" Dao and Zhao thought to themselves.

"Cough! Cough! Cough..."

"Father!" Zhao handed Dao some hot water to moisten his throat.

"Yeah, it's okay." Dao put down the water cup and asked Zhao to calm down.

"King, Master State Master, I don't know where you got such absurd news. I also hope Yue is still alive. But... but it will never be possible. My Yue has left me forever." Dao was still immersed in the emotion of reluctance to part after just experiencing separation.

This sad look almost made the Imperial Master believe it. However, he still believed in his information. Moreover, he had carefully calculated and divined. Yue Yue's vitality was not exhausted. He was afraid that his child would fall into the trap of Yue's father and son again. The Imperial Master gave Ya a look of disbelief.

With the Imperial Master by his side, Ya felt more confident. He was determined to see Yue today. He was no longer passive and let others lead him by the nose. He took the initiative to attack.

"Father! Brother! I must see Xiaoyueliang today no matter what. Please don't stop me. Sorry for the offense!" Ya said and winked at the national teacher.

The Imperial Master, who received the signal, clapped his hands heavily. The warriors outside rushed in instantly. "King!" A large group of warriors knelt down at his feet.

"Everyone listen, spread out. Search the Yue Mansion thoroughly inside and out. If you find the queen, I will reward you handsomely! Remember, you cannot destroy any tree or blade of grass in the Yue Mansion. Be careful!" Ya gave the order in a crisp and clear manner.

"Yes!" The warriors immediately took the order.

"Let's see who dares!" Zhao stood up. The atmosphere instantly became tense.

"Zhao'er! Come back! Ahem! Ahem... Let them search. This will also stop the king from having any thoughts about it." Dao called back Zhao.

"Hmph!" Zhao glared at the two of them fiercely, then reluctantly returned to Dao.

Next, the search went smoothly. As time passed, Ya became more and more uneasy. The sweat on his forehead kept coming out.

The Imperial Master noticed that he was acting strangely, and quickly took out a medicine bottle from his coat pocket and stuffed a pill into his mouth.

Dao and Zhao just looked at it curiously, then closed their eyes and rested, showing no sign of asking any questions.

This made the national teacher, Wei Ya, feel very sorry. Look, this is his own child. The so-called family. No one cares about him. Oh~! He is really eager to help others, but he is being abused. What a bad fate!

After a long time, the warriors who had been searching returned empty-handed, reporting that no trace of the queen was found in the entire Yue Prefecture.

This made Ya, who had calmed down after taking the medicine, go crazy again!

"No! I don't believe it! I want Yue! Give my little moon back to me!" Ya suddenly roared, stumbling and running towards Yue's residence.

The Imperial Master quickly hugged him. "What are you looking at? Hurry up and get some help. Help me hold him back."

During the scuffle, Ya's coat fell off completely, and the hair hidden in the hood caught Dao and Zhao's eyes.

"He... this is?..." Dao was incredulous, looking at Ya, who had more white hair than himself. He was shocked.

No one answered him. The national master was busy trying to calm down the crazy Ya.

The Imperial Master took out a pill that he had made secretly, pried open Ya's jaw, and stuffed it in. Then he poured a glass of water into his mouth to prevent him from spitting out the pill.

Fortunately, there were many people and they managed to hold Ya back. After a while, the drug took effect. Ya was dazed and kept repeating Yue's name. Finally, he fell into a coma.

At this time, the national teacher breathed a sigh of relief and signaled the warriors on both sides to set up the KIA.

"My Lord, I am sorry for bothering you today. I will come to your house to apologize another day. Goodbye!" He said, without waiting for Dao and Zhao to reply. He hurriedly escorted Ya out of Yue Mansion.

"Father, what's wrong with him?" Zhao asked as he watched the people leaving.

"I don't know!" Dao glanced away his sickly look, stood up from the chair, and was also very confused.

"Hey! Never mind him. How's the thing I asked you to do going?" Dao asked meaningfully.

"Of course! I'll bring it myself..."

"That's good! Follow me." The knife-wielding man pressed on Zhao's arm, stopping him from saying anything else. He glanced around and told him to be more cautious.

Zhao understood, held the knife, and went with him to a quiet place to talk in detail.

As soon as they left, a figure emerged from under the table at the back of the living room and ran away stealthily.

After making sure that there was no one around, Dao expressed his guess. "It seems that there is a spy in the mansion. Go and investigate thoroughly. Make sure to root him out!"

"Don't worry, father. Leave this matter to me and I guarantee that it will be foolproof. Uh...it's just Ya, oh~! Don't we need to investigate the new king?" Thinking of Ya's crazy look, Zhao was very curious.

"...No need... Hey~! It's up to you! Fortunately, your sister is safe. The rest is not important anymore!" Dao waved his hand and let Zhao leave. He wanted to be alone.

Zhao knew that his father was worried about his sister. So he stopped disturbing him, closed the doors and windows for him, and left the room. He looked towards the dense forest. He silently wished him a safe journey. He turned and hid in the darkness, becoming a messenger of the night. He wanted to let the traitors know the miserable fate of betrayers. He would definitely make them regret coming into this world!
