He suddenly stopped, hovering in mid-air, his gaze fixed on the people before him, and demanded sharply, "Li Yuandao? What are you doing here instead of patrolling Beast City?"

"Hahaha, Dugu Ran, you're really slow-witted. Can't you see it?"

However, he was responded with a hearty laugh.

Before the laughter died down, a huge crane slowly flew over from behind the crowd.

On the back of the crane, Lie Xiaotian was wearing a black robe that rustled the wind. He had a smile on his face, but his eyes revealed a hint of cunning and complacency.

"Dugu Ran, thanks to your help, otherwise it would be difficult to find the whereabouts of these traitors."

Lie Xiaotian's voice was like a huge bell, echoing in the air.

"You're following me!"

Dugu Ran widened his eyes in anger, his heart burning with rage.

He never thought that he would be tricked by Lie Xiaotian. He stared at Lie Xiaotian intently, the hatred in his eyes seemed to want to devour him.

"Haha, Dugu Ran, you're getting old. I didn't notice it for so long."

Lie Xiaotian mocked mercilessly, his smile growing more arrogant. He looked at Dugu Ran's angry expression, feeling smug.

It happened in a flash. Dugu Ran knew that the situation was critical and he could no longer entangle with Lie Xiaotian.

He turned abruptly and flew off in another direction without hesitation. His speed was so fast that he disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.

"Humph, does he really think he can escape my net?"

Lie Xiaotian looked at the direction where Dugu Ran left and sneered.

There was a hint of disdain in his eyes, as if everything was under his control.

He raised his hand slightly and waved it lightly in the air, and the Li family members behind him immediately chased in the direction where Dugu Ran left like a tide.

……

Inside the Jin family mansion, sunlight shines through the carved window lattices, casting patches of mottled light and shadow, adding a sense of tranquility to this quaint hall.

Bai Luoluo walked into the hall slowly with light steps, only to see Tuoba Ye had been waiting there for a long time.

He was wearing a dark brocade robe, the delicate embroidery on the corners of the robe faintly visible in the dim light.

As soon as Tuoba Ye saw Bai Luoluo, his slightly anxious expression instantly relaxed, his eyes were full of joy and anticipation, and he suddenly felt more confident.

"Miss Bai."

He quickly stood up and walked forward respectfully, his face full of smiles, which showed both respect for the strong and enthusiasm for his allies.

"Master Tuoba, I heard you came to me to discuss something important?"

Tuoba Ye nodded quickly and explained in a serious manner that since Jin Zishan's matchmaking last time, their Tuoba family had taken the initiative to join Luo Luo's team and obtained many weapons supply maps for this.

Many of them are ingeniously designed hidden weapons that can be used even by the elderly, the weak, women and children.

"Miss Bai, our Tuoba family has already prepared what you asked us to do, and we are just waiting for your inspection."

Having said this, Tuoba Yebu's eyes revealed a hint of pride, and he believed that Bai Luoluo would be satisfied.

Bai Luoluo suddenly felt happy, "Then I will send Conis to pick up the goods later."

Bai Luoluo heard this and a calm smile appeared on his face. He then raised his hand to call for the servants and ordered, "Go, prepare and send the balance to Tuoba Mansion."

The servant received the order and was about to turn around and leave, but Tuoba Ye quickly reached out to stop him.

Tuoba Ye said sincerely, waving his hands repeatedly, "Miss Bai, no, no, our Tuoba family absolutely cannot accept this balance."

"Though those weapons are intricately designed and time-consuming to create, they don't actually consume a lot of materials. We in the Tuoba family do have some of these. Besides, I can't say for anything else about the Tuoba family, but we do have strength."

He looked at Bai Luoluo again, his eyes filled with gratitude and relief. "Besides, Miss Bai has already given us enough benefits before."

Bai Luoluo immediately understood what Tuoba Ye was referring to, the pregnancy pill that she had used to win people's hearts.

It seems that the Tuoba family, who were testing the results, have verified the miraculous effect of the pregnancy pill. In this way, the plan to win over the aristocratic families to become subordinates is almost certain to succeed.

"Let's put it this way. I like to have a give-and-take relationship. That way, whether it's business, money, or personal relationships, everything is justifiable."

Her voice was soft but firm, revealing an attitude that left no room for doubt.

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Tuoba Ye nodded in agreement and did not refuse anymore. He understood that Bai Luoluo valued their family. He paused and continued.

"If Miss Bai is free, please give the Tuoba family a chance to express their gratitude. I always think of Miss Bai."

Bai Luoluo asked, "How's Yu'er doing lately? I think she must be very happy to get these weapons."

Tuoba Ye's face showed a trace of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "She has been very upset recently. Mo Qi, the descendant of the Wolf King, came to propose marriage. She can't wait to hide in your place."

"Moqi proposed marriage?"

Bai Luoluo paused slightly while holding the tea, raised her eyes to look at Tuoba Ye, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

The other party was obviously asking for his opinion.

Bai Luoluo never liked beating around the bush. She looked Tuoba Ye straight in the eye and said frankly, "To be honest, I admire Mo Qi's character. As for his potential, I think the descendant of the Wolf King is not much worse."

"However, behind this marriage, his brother Mo Nie must have made many calculations. I believe that the head of the Tuoba family is also well aware of this."

Her eyes were firm and sharp. "Master Tuoba, why don't you wait a little longer? This is related to Yu'er's lifelong event."

Tuoba Ye understood that Bai Luoluo was just waiting to see what would happen.

"Since Miss Bai has praised him, I must give this boy a good test."

Tuoba Ye did not dwell on this matter too much. He stopped there. After completing the delivery of weapons, Tuoba Ye was about to leave.

Not long after walking, he saw Jin Zilin walking towards him triumphantly, holding a little girl carefully in his arms.

Jin Zilin's face was filled with a happy smile, but the moment his eyes met Tuoba Ye, his smile suddenly froze.

Just a second ago, he was laughing and talking happily, but the next second he hurriedly hid Bai Ying in the cradle behind him. His movements were quick and clumsy, for fear that Tuoba Ye would see him.

"Long time no see, Uncle Tuoba."

"Ok?"

Bai Ying was a little confused in her cradle by this sudden movement. She curiously poked her little head out from the gap between Jin Zilin's waist and forearm. Her big watery eyes were full of confusion, and her little mouth was open, as if asking what happened?

"……Um."

When Tuoba Ye saw this scene, he couldn't help but take a breath and understood a lot in an instant.

Mr. Jin, this person is not a decent person!

No wonder Jin Zishan tried to stop him when he entered the door. It turned out that he was afraid that he would covet the other party’s granddaughter-in-law!
