A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

Wei Wuji stood up and helped the two of them up: "Hey, didn't I say there's no need to be so polite? Let's sit down and talk!"

After sitting down, Bai Yuan glanced at the maid holding the child with some confusion.

"What brings you here, young master? And why have you brought someone with you?"

child?"

"You two don't know?" Wei Wuji raised an eyebrow. "Last night, Wei Yong mobilized the Wei Wu soldiers, intending to kill Xuan Jian to silence him!"

Bai Yuan and Wuming exchanged a glance, their expressions showing surprise.

"Such a thing actually happened?" Bai Yuan said, his expression changing from surprise to a smile. "Since you're here so leisurely, it means Wei Yong didn't succeed. You must have found evidence of his collusion with the Luo Wang, right?"

Wei Wuji smiled and said, "You guessed right! It's quite a coincidence. Two mysterious people suddenly appeared last night. Like you, they also knew about Wei Yong's collusion with Luo Wang. They not only exposed the truth on the spot, but also helped Xuan Jian. Now they have escaped from the city."

That statement carried a hint of probing.

He knew very well that Bai Yuan and Wuming were skilled in martial arts. After all, even the top-tier assassins of the Luo Wang organization dared not act recklessly in front of them and could only obediently surrender.

When Wei Wuji heard Wei Gang say that someone had helped Xuan Jian, his first thought was that it was Bai Yuan and the other person who did it.

However, after hearing Wei Gang's description, she felt something was off. The Assassin who looked somewhat androgynous was far removed from Bai Yuan.

Faced with Wei Wuji's probing, Bai Yuan pretended not to hear it and showed a regretful expression.

"Is that so? Looks like we missed a great show last night!"

Wei Wuji couldn't discern anything from their faces, so he could only give up. He sighed and continued, "This is indeed a grand spectacle. Wei Yong's crimes have now been exposed, and he has been arrested. We await Your Majesty's judgment."

Bai Yuan smiled and congratulated him, "It seems we should congratulate you, young master! Capturing this traitor must be a great achievement."

Wei Wuji waved his hand slightly: "This is all thanks to the information from you two. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable. I came here specifically to thank you both and to fulfill our agreement."

Bai Yuan smiled and nodded after hearing this, then brought the topic back to the baby.

"Young master said you came to fulfill your promise, so why did you bring an infant with you?"

Wei Wuji gave a rather helpless wry smile: "This is actually Xuan Jian's child."

Upon hearing this answer, Bai Yuan and Wuming, though they had already guessed it, still feigned surprise.

"How come Xuan Jian's child is with you, young master?"

Wei Wuji sighed and began to explain to them.

“Last night, while Wei Yong was away, I sent people to search other residences for evidence. We not only found a so-called death list, but also an infant. From the maid who was taking care of the baby, we learned that this was Xuan Jian and Wei Qianqian’s child. Wei Yong used this child to threaten Xuan Jian into assassinating the General.”

“Now that Xuan Jian and Wei Qianqian have escaped from the city and Wei Yong has been captured, there is no one to take care of this child. I don’t know how to make arrangements, so I thought of you two.”

Wei Wuji was a kind and generous person, and after obtaining Xuan Jian's child, he did not intend to use it to threaten Xuan Jian.

Unlike Wei Yong, he disdained using a child as a threat.

Therefore, he decided to entrust the child to someone else to take care of, and the natural choice was Bai Yuan and Wuming.

Although Wei Wuji had no evidence to suggest that Bai Yuan and Wuming had saved Xuan Jian last night, he still felt that the two of them must have some connection with Xuan Jian.

This step of his was also a test.

Bai Yuan suddenly felt a bit tricky. He hadn't expected Wei Wuji to be so proactive. This test was even more dangerous than the previous ones. But they had promised Xuan Jian that they would help him rescue the child. How should they deal with this?

At this moment, Wuming suddenly stood up and bowed to Wei Wuji.

"Young master, you are truly a man of noble character. I admire you greatly!"

Wei Wuji was a little confused by this. What was going on now?

Regardless of how others reacted, Wuming continued talking to himself.

“Now that Wei Yong has committed treason, the King of Wei will surely implicate many people in his rage. What crime has this newborn baby committed? The young master is kind-hearted and is willing to risk being blamed by the King of Wei to send the baby to us. Since the young master thinks so highly of us, we will not let him down and will take good care of this child!”

Wuming's series of compliments not only defused Wei Wuji's probing, but even made him a little embarrassed.

Bai Yuan found it somewhat unbelievable. He hadn't expected Wuming to flatter people like an old sow wearing a bra, one compliment after another, almost making Wei Wuji lose his bearings.

Chapter 41 Anyone but me!

Because Wuming had bestowed upon him such high praise of benevolence and kindness, Wei Wuji's attempt to test him completely failed.

He sighed inwardly, then smiled and waved to the maid.

"Mr. Anonymous, you flatter me. Since you have agreed to adopt this child, then he is entrusted to you!"

Wuming carefully took the child from the maid.

At this moment, the little guy is sleeping soundly, completely unaware of what is happening outside.

"The carriage I promised you is ready and is outside. Also, this is my token. When you want to leave the city, just show the token and you can pass through without any obstacles."

After discussing the child, Wei Wuji took out a token of unknown material and handed it to the two of them.

Bai Yuan accepted the token and thanked him.

"The transaction is complete. I have other matters to attend to, so I must take my leave now!"

Having achieved his goals for coming here today, Wei Wuji planned to return to continue dealing with Wei Yong's affairs.

"Master, walk slowly!"

Bai Yuan and Wuming escorted him to the door and watched him get into the carriage and leave.

When he left, he left behind a carriage similar to the one he had been sitting in, the luxurious carriage that Bai Yuan had been longing for.

"Truly worthy of being called Lord Xinling, he's incredibly generous!"

Bai Yuan circled the carriage and sighed. He then immediately instructed Lin He to settle the carriage properly, especially to make sure the horses pulling it were well-fed.

When the two brought Xuan Jian's child to the backyard, they saw Lu telling Ningyan the story of Nezha, the demon child, that Bai Yuan had told him before.

At this point, he recounted the story of Nezha's three heads and six arms battling Ao Long, and his lifelong unyielding and defiant spirit.

Phrases like "My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens" and "If fate is unfair, then fight it to the end" opened Ningyan's eyes.

Hearing footsteps, the two noticed that Bai Yuan and Wuming had returned, and the story would have to wait until another time.

They were all curious when they saw the baby in the nameless man's hands.

"Didn't you go to see Lord Xinling? Why did you bring back a child?"

“This is Xuan Jian’s child, sent by Lord Xinling. We also promised Xuan Jian that we would rescue his child.”

Bai Yuan briefly explained the child's origins.

At this moment, the baby, who had been sleeping, suddenly woke up, squirmed restlessly in the nameless man's arms, and then burst into loud crying, which startled everyone.

The nameless man tried to soothe the baby, but the baby's cries only grew louder.

Bai Yuan tried extending a finger to his lips and found that he wanted to suck on his finger, so he immediately made a deduction.

"He must be hungry. Ningyan, go and get him something to eat."

Ningyan was immediately stunned when she was suddenly called upon.

"Huh? Me? What should I feed him?"

Ningyan took the child in a fluster. She had no experience in taking care of children and seemed at a loss when she heard Bai Yuan's words.

"Hmm, go ask Linhe if he has any goat milk, and feed him some goat milk or something!"

Bai Yuan noticed Ningyan's predicament and offered her some advice.

In reality, he himself didn't have much experience.

Ningyan nodded, then picked up the child and ran to find Lin He.

She left

Bai Yuan immediately felt much quieter.

"Phew! They're finally gone. That kid was terrifying!"

Wuming couldn't help but laugh when he heard his words: "I didn't expect you to be afraid of a baby?"

"Mr. Anonymous, please stop teasing me. How about you take care of this child?"

"Ahem. Never mind that, let Miss Ningyan take care of her."

Wuming immediately refused upon hearing this.

He can take care of a person, but he really can't take care of a baby who is still crying for milk.

Bai Yuan simply made a joke and didn't continue the discussion on the matter.

Anyway, as long as he's not the one taking care of the child, anyone can take care of him!

Ningyan returned after a long time, looking somewhat tired.

"You're back. Where are the children?"

"He drank some goat milk and then fell asleep, so I handed him over to someone else to look after."

Bai Yuan nodded slightly after hearing this, and then said, "Thank you for your hard work. Before returning him to Xuan Jian and his wife, I'll have to trouble you to take care of the child."

"But."

"No buts, it's settled then. It's just taking care of a child, I trust you can handle it!"

Bai Yuan interrupted Ningyan and settled the matter directly.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade him otherwise, Ningyan had no choice but to accept it, since she was just a maid now.

Seeing that Ningyan had visibly lost its luster, Bai Yuan couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

Who would have thought that a top-tier assassin from the prestigious Luo Wang would be reduced to this state because of a baby?

Of course, he's just blaming others for his own faults.

"Alright, I won't let you take care of me for long. Go pack your luggage later, we're leaving Daliang tomorrow."

Are we leaving?

Upon hearing this news, Ningyan's expression softened considerably.

"Yes! We originally just wanted to get a carriage to travel, but we've been in Daliang for almost half a month now, so it's time to set off."
