Chapter 140: Going around circles


    Wei Jiayi allowed Kai Kai to move around. The sun was setting down, the sky of the Mortal Domain was painted with blue and red mixing in the near darkness of the night and soon the whole manor will be covered in the dark.


    Servants hide from him and the guards stayed away from his path. No one dared to approach Wei Jiayi due to the ck hound, but they still opened the hangingnterns on the second prince manor with bright spiritual crystals. The sooner he finds what he was looking for the sooner he would leave.


    The hound continued to sniff from time to time then moved again, tracking. The Wei Prince knew that they were going around in circles, as it was the second or third time he saw an open gate of stone going to a female courtyard.


    The entrance of the gate was surrounded with nted white roses, two guards standing at each side. Through the entrance, he could also see some servants who were franticallying in and out of the main receiving room of the courtyard.


    "Lou Ren." Wei Jiayi called, the man immediately appeared. He came down from the ck hound, handing the leash over to Lou Ren. "Take over tracking."


    Walking down across the circled path towards the courtyard, "Master! Please do not go there, Concubine Li is with curse madness." Lou Ren eximed when he saw Wei Jiayi intention.


    Wei Jiayi removed his mask to breathe better and see better due to the darkness as he didn''t want to miss anything, then looked at Lou Ren, "Did you not hear me?" he asked, patience shortening, they were wasting too much time.


    Lou Ren just nodded, "I did master. I am sorry. However, curse madness may affect anyone as well as you." he said. Who knows what ''Merchant Lan'' did to Li Huan.


    Though he wanted his new brother to be found, he was still cautious, Actually conflicted on who to follow now, but since he was not sure about the whole story, he couldn''t back up ''Lan Gao''.


    "If your Brother Lan is involved, no need to worry, she will not enjoy killing me immediately." Wei Jiayi said, striding towards the courtyard.


    ''She?'' Lou Ren might have mistaken so he controlled Kai Kai to do the task, noticing the ss like a barrier as well, which wasn''t helping with the darkness.


    He grabbed a piece of white paper from his storage ring, then crumpled and uttered a short spellbinding chant to coat the paper.


    The paper, after a moment, slowly started forming. Long hare ears appeared first, next was a bright white cotton-tail tuft from the end of it. After the forming wasplete, once an originally white paper turned into a small white rabbit.


    "Tell them." Lou Ren said to the small rabbit, his pawn, and it hopped quickly in the direction of the other experts.


    Lou Ren then proceeds with his task, he nces at Wei Jiayi who was now passing the guards stationed at the courtyard. ''Why are you hiding brother? Do you owe something to my master?'' he silently asked. His master will not act this way if it wasn''t, a big deal.


    Wei Jiayi was standing outside the room, watching some of the female servants frantically trying to help the woman inside. There was also the resident doctor of the manor basing the traditional all-white robes of doctors in the Shizi Empire.


    "Get out! All of you. Stay away! Monsters!" The woman shouted from inside, voice hoarse from too many emotions. Either from being scared or being angry.
