"Master, Elder Ruohai didn't tell me, but Elder Ruohai seems very anxious." The servant replied respectfully.

Xu Bai clapped his hands, then raised his hand and said, "Go, go and see what's going on!"

The two servants lowered their heads and accompanied Xu Bai to the front hall.

Ruohai was pacing non-stop in the front hall at this time, his brows were also tightened. Although there were many antique calligraphy and paintings in this hall, they couldn't attract his attention at all.

There was a sound of unhurried footsteps, which made Ruohai feel less restless. As early as ten years ago, when the old man of the Xu family tried his best to save him, his life was closely related to the fate of the Xu family. Closely connected, Xu Bai also grew up watching him. To be honest, Xu Bai's previous appearance really chilled him, but since the old man's death, Xu Bai has also undergone earth-shaking changes, so that he is now With admiration.

It can be said that the current situation in the ice city is chaotic, and Xu Bai is just a young man just over 20 years old. As the helm of the Xu family, he is not panicking at this moment, which is exactly what Ruohai is gratified about.

"Uncle Ruohai, why are you here?" Xu Bai greeted with a smile, and quickly stretched out his hand to invite Ruohai to sit down.

Ruohai sat down and said, "Patriarch, Jinshi is dead."

Xu Bai's hand holding the teacup paused for a moment, then he put the teacup to his mouth and took a sip, and said, "Who did it?"

"I don't know. When we arrived, that person was no longer there. I already asked Big Fatty to search that area first."

Xu Bai's eyes narrowed, and there was panic in his heart now, but he knew that no matter what, he couldn't express this panic on his face. If he, the backbone, became at a loss, then The Xu family is really over.

"Uncle Ruohai, I have to trouble you with one thing." After both of them were silent for a long time, Xu Bai suddenly spoke.

"Patriarch, please tell me." Ruohai's face became serious.

"Send your shadow organization to monitor every member of the Presbyterian Church and report to me regularly." Xu Bai said after pondering for a while.

"But if this is the case, they will definitely notice it." Ruohai said hesitantly, the Shadow Organization is an intelligence agency under him, and this agency occupies 90% of the intelligence network in Bingcheng.

"It is to let everyone know that there are people monitoring them, so that our own people will feel at ease, and those traitors will not act rashly."

After a pause, Xu Bai suddenly asked: "Uncle Ruohai, do you know if there will be an enemy's mole in this shadow organization?"

Ruohai said with a smile: "Patriarch, don't worry. Those who are selected into the shadow organization will have their identities checked and then undergo brainwashing unique to the shadow. Now they only know to be loyal to the shadow and the patriarch."

Xu Bai nodded in satisfaction, supported Ruohai and said, "Uncle Ruohai, after my father died, only you and Wang Zhao have been loyal to my Xu family. Although the Xu family is big and successful, the only people I really care about are you two You are dead, so you must be careful about your own safety during this time."

Looking at Xu Bai's slightly red eyes, Ruohai also felt a warm current flowing through his heart, he held Xu Bai's arm tightly, and said emotionally: "Patriarch, Ruohai assures you, as long as I, Ruohai, are alive, none of them will Can't hurt you."

Nodding heavily at Ruohai, Xu Bai patted Ruohai's shoulder and said, "Take care!"

"Take care." After Ruohai finished speaking, he turned around and strode out towards the door without looking back.

Looking at Ruohai's generous back, Xu Bai took a deep breath, clenched his fists under his sleeves tightly, and his cold voice floated in the empty hall.

"Even if you destroy the Xu family, I will make you lose your skin!"

——————————— In the next few days, except for Ruohai, Wang Zhao, and Xu Bai himself, all the sixteen sword masters in the Xu family felt that there was a dark aura accompanying them , and Jin Shi's sudden death also made these elders who had always been unscrupulous in the ice city restrained a lot, and even had to wear silver needles before eating to prevent someone from poisoning the food.

This situation was also obtained by Pang Xiaotian who had been secretly inquiring.

In Longlai Bieyuan, in Pang Xiaotian's room, Yunhao, Pang Xiaotian and that Pang Mo sat around the table.

Pang Xiaotian frowned slightly, glanced at the two of them, and then slowly said: "These days Xu Bai used Bingcheng's intelligence organization to monitor all the elders of the Elder's House. Our plans seem to be on hold for now."

Yun Hao's complexion also darkened, and now he was a little anxious to kill Xu Bai, but until now there was no good chance.

"Then what should we do now?" Pang Mo pondered for a moment, and asked Pang Xiaotian, who also knew about Yunhao's existence through Pang Xiaotian's recommendation.

Pang Xiaotian was silent for a while, then turned his gaze to Yunhao's face, and began to ask Yunhao for his opinion.

A cold smile curled up on the corner of Yunhao's mouth, and he said, "Listen, there are three of them who are not in the Shadow Watch?"

Pang Mo said in shock: "You don't mean to want..."

"That's right, do the opposite. Only by attacking where they don't expect will be able to achieve miraculous results." Yun Hao put his head on his hands and said with a smile.

"Mr. Yun, is this...too risky?" Pang Xiaotian asked with some uncertainty: "After all, this Ruohai is a senior swordsman."

"I didn't say that he would be the one I moved!" A mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Yunhao's mouth.

——————————— The night was as black as ink, the walls of Xu Bai's house were inlaid with some kind of unknown gemstones, and the colored gemstones mottled the surrounding walls with corresponding colored glazes.

Xu Bai sat by the table, lazily picked up the flagon to pour himself wine, and beside him was his confidant Wang Zhao.

"Wang Zhao, how many years have you been with me?" Xu Bai asked casually, his eyes were a little more drunk.

However, Wang Zhao didn't dare to underestimate this sentence, he replied cautiously: "I tell the master, I have followed the master for 14 years."

"It's been 14 years... You have witnessed several major changes in the Xu family, do you think we can survive this time?" Xu Bai said, playing with the wine glass in his hand.

"Yes, as long as you are here, young master, the Xu family will have nothing to fear!" Wang Zhao's eyes suddenly became hot. He not only respected Xu Bai, but even raised it to a level of admiration.

Xu Bai chuckled twice, and said: "It's getting late today, you should go back early to rest, and inform all the members of the Presbyterian Church early tomorrow morning to come to the headquarters for a meeting, we... can't wait passively like this gone."

"I understand the Patriarch."

Wang Zhaowei leaned back and exited the house. After carefully closing the door, Wang Zhao whispered to the dark place, "Protect the safety of the master."

"Yes!" In the darkness, faint voices could be heard.

After Wang Zhao nodded in satisfaction, he walked towards the bedroom with his hands behind his back. His bedroom was only separated from Xu Bai's bedroom by a courtyard wall, but even so, it was to let Wang Zhao know that Xu Bai didn't trust him very much. .

Sighing slightly, Wang Zhaocai pushed open the door and entered the room. His room was not as resplendent as Xu Bai's. Wang Zhao silently lit the oil lamp before walking towards the bed.

An inexplicable fragrance wafted in the room, which made Wang Zhao feel a little dazed, and his steps seemed to become a little vain.

However, he had just walked halfway when his footsteps suddenly stopped in the air.

A black shadow suddenly jumped out of his bed, roaring towards him with fierce vigor.

Wang Zhao's face changed slightly, and his figure also jumped towards the back at this moment. The sudden danger made the trace of trance in his heart disappear all of a sudden.

But in a duel between masters, sometimes the difference is just a short moment.

Wang Zhao opened his mouth wide, wanting to yell out to tell the outsiders what happened here. You must know that the Xu family has set up a net of heaven and earth. As long as there is any movement like this, a large group of people will come to surround and suppress.

However, when he was about to shout, his face became ugly.
