The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 241 The mysterious man is my senior brother?

After Xia Yu, Li Jian, Hua Changyi and Gu Baili got together, the four of them agreed on the direction of the investigation and divided into two groups to conduct the investigation. Hua Changyi and Gu Baili's group went to investigate the source of "selling the universal marriage thread", while Xia Yu and Li Jian, in addition to investigating the "sales point of the universal marriage thread", also had to find out who was mixed up with Bai Zhi.

Xia Yu had some selfish motives in investigating the person behind Bai Zhi. That night Luo Fan told her that he and her pretended to break up, and he went to act with Bai Zhi to gain her trust, and took the opportunity to investigate who was behind Bai Zhi.

But she was very worried.

This "breakup" was very realistic. Xia Yu and Luo Fan didn't tell anyone, which made Qu Si Ning so angry that she called Xia Yu to go to her store to catch the adulterer.

In order to appear more realistic, Xia Yu still did not tell Qu Si Ning the truth, but only told her: The breakup is real, and who he is with has nothing to do with me.

Xia Yu didn't see how Qu Si Ning gritted her teeth and finished the manicure for Bai Zhi after seeing the message. Her service attitude was really not friendly.

Originally, he was going to follow and investigate Bai Zhi, but when Qu Si Ning called, Xia Yu pretended that he had something to do and couldn't come. As a result, he turned around and appeared invisibly next to Luo Fan and Bai Zhi with Li Jian.

Looking at Luo Fan's intimate actions towards Bai Zhi, such as "wiping mouth", "feeding cake", "holding chair", "passing bowls and chopsticks", etc., the two of them talked and laughed, just like a couple.

After a passionate love affair, he can immediately fall in love with another woman right after breaking up. Unless it is the blessing of the "universal marriage line", otherwise...

Li Jian raised his eyebrows, looked down at Xia Yu's reaction, and asked tentatively, "Are you really breaking up?"

"Actually..." Xia Yu watched Luo Fan acting happily there. She clenched her fists and replied, "He said we were just pretending to break up. He went to accompany Bai Zhi to play along and help us investigate who is behind Bai Zhi."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Li Jian calmly played with the marriage ring on his hand, and suddenly smiled: "It turns out that he is also good at acting."

"In my opinion, he is very attentive." Xia Yu didn't expect that she could be so angry after knowing it was fake. She just felt sour and really wanted to rush up and punch him twice.

Because Xia Yu and Li Jian were invisible, others could not see them or hear them talking.

After getting her manicure done, Bai Zhi didn't want to continue looking at Qu Si Ning's face, so she took Luo Fan to a high-end restaurant for dinner. Xia Yu and Li Jian followed them all the way, watching the two of them enjoying their meal.

"Junior sister..." Li Jian was about to say something but stopped. He didn't want to continue watching here. He pulled Xia Yu's hand and advised: "We'll follow them all the way. Even if there is a mastermind behind the scenes, he won't show up now for us to find out. Let's go and investigate the matter of the 'Universal Marriage Thread' first."

Luo Fan tried his best to show his gentlemanly manners and was very considerate. In short, he took a day off just to please her.

The delicious seafood buffet made Xia Yu hungry, but as she watched Luo Fan feeding Bai Zhi mouthful by mouthful, she became more and more angry.

Unlimited supply of seafood such as sashimi platter, grilled live scallops with garlic sauce, crab meat with cheese, grilled live oysters with garlic sauce, and various high-quality grilled meats such as beef, pork, lamb, chicken...

That’s not all. The long table was also filled with hairy crabs, snow crab legs, sturgeon caviar, black truffle potato chips, thickly grilled beef tongue, and grilled eel…

"Wow! This lobster looks so delicious." Bai Zhi said, shaking her nails with regret, and said, "It's a pity that my new nails can't peel the shrimp shell."

"I'll peel it for you." Luo Fan responded with a smile. Little did he know that Xia Yu was actually staring at him closely. Seeing that he was about to peel a shrimp for Bai Zhi, he secretly cast a spell, which made it impossible for Luo Fan to peel off the shrimp shell no matter how hard he tried.

Luo Fan didn't find anything unusual the first or second time, but after he tried many times and failed to peel off the shrimp shell, he finally discovered something was wrong.

Ask you to peel...

Xia Yu angrily kicked Luo Fan's foot.

"Ah..." Luo Fan lowered his head and cried out in pain.

"What's wrong?" Bai Zhi asked with concern.

"No...it's okay..." Luo Fan pretended to be calm. He guessed that Xia Yu might be next to him, so he put down the shrimp in his hand and explained, "I'm sorry, my leg suddenly cramped and it was very uncomfortable. My hands are also weak, so I may not be able to peel the shrimp for you... Let's...order another plate of shrimp."

"Waiter~."

"Hello! What can I do for you?"

"Bring us a plate of shrimp." "Okay, wait a moment."

Xia Yu finally laughed at Luo Fan's reaction, but Li Jian didn't want to waste time here, so he pulled Xia Yu and left.

"Xiao Zhi..." Luo Fan suddenly got to the point while eating and asked carefully, "I've always been worried. If you and I are together, what if Xia Yu comes to take revenge on us? She came from heaven, and we are just ordinary people. We can't beat her at all."

Bai Zhi was actually a little suspicious of Luo Fan's sudden enthusiasm. Hearing this, she suddenly looked at him warily and smiled deliberately, "She loves you so much, how could she be willing to take revenge on you?"

"I actually don't like her at all, but I heard that she has that omnipotent red string, and she threatened me that if I don't be with her, she will tie a red string between me and my dog..." Luo Fan actually cried as he spoke. Men don't shed tears easily, and he acted so well that even his parents could hardly control him.

"I was forced..." Luo Fan choked up as he spoke. Seeing Bai Zhi slowly relax her guard, he continued, "Until you showed up, I saw that you and I were just ordinary people, but you bravely confronted her. I think I should also work hard for myself and be brave once, so..."

"So you broke up?" Bai Zhi asked.

"Yes. But actually I don't drink because I'm heartbroken..." Luo Fan pretended to wipe away tears and continued, "I'm worried that he will take revenge on us, do you understand?"

Wow! What an actor!
Xia Yu was pulled along by Li Jian all the way. Even though he had his back to him, he still listened to Luo Fan's crying while walking, and applauded him angrily.

"Don't be afraid of her." Bai Zhi suddenly became serious, stretched out his hand to hold Luo Fan's hand, and whispered to him: "She has a very powerful senior brother, who has long disliked her. He will help us. With him, Xia Yu will not be able to beat him. Don't worry..."

Senior brother?

These words hit Xia Yu's heart like a thunderbolt. Her body stiffened. She and Li Jian had already reached the door of the restaurant, but they both stopped at the same time.

Xia Yu suddenly turned around and came to Bai Zhi's side in an instant, wanting to hear her say which senior brother it was. Li Jian also came over, holding Xia Yu's hand and telling her: Don't get excited.

Luo Fan was also shocked when he heard this, but it was not over yet. He slowed down and continued to ask: "Really? That's great, we can finally be together in peace. But...she has ninety-eight brothers, which one are you talking about, Xiao Zhi? Where is he? Can he...really protect us?"

"Yes..." Just as he was about to speak, Bai Zhi remembered someone's "warning", so he quickly drank a glass of "grape juice" and began to change the subject: "Fan, I'm very happy today, let's not talk about this for now. In short, as long as you are sincere with me, I will definitely protect you."

! !
She stopped talking!

Xia Yu gathered a ball of spiritual energy in her palm and formed a spell. She wanted to cast the spell to spy on Bai Zhi's memory.

"Junior Sister." Li Jian wanted to stop her.

Xia Yu's spell hit Bai Zhi's forehead but was deflected by another spell. It turned out that the person had guessed it in advance and put a spell restriction on Bai Zhi in advance to prevent others from using spells to spy on her memory. To remove the spell, unless the person who wants to remove the spell has stronger magic power than the person who cast the spell, otherwise it will be in vain.

"Second brother, come here." Xia Yu placed his hopes on Li Jian.

Li Jian shook his head and tried, but his spell was also bounced off by the spell restriction.

who is it……

Who is it?

The magic power is stronger than that of the second brother...

Big Brother?

No... the powers of the brothers should be equal. I still remember that a hundred years ago, the Heavenly Court held a competition for the powers of immortals and gods. Among the 98 brothers, 66 brothers had equal powers, 20 brothers had outstanding abilities, and 6 brothers tied for first place.

Only Xia Yu, who had the weakest ability, was not qualified to participate in the competition. He just sat there as a spectator and shouted "Come on!" desperately.

These six people are: Bai Yu (senior eldest brother), Li Jian (second senior brother), Hua Changyi (seventeenth senior brother), Gu Baili (ninth senior brother), Chu Lichen (seventh senior brother), and Nangong Xu (eleventh senior brother).

If we still have to compare the strengths of these six people, the eldest and second brothers are better, but the difference between the two is not much.
