Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune

#404 - Chapter 404 Settlement

As the group moved forward, those blocking the way quickly made way.

In this day and age, you wouldn't last long without a little discernment.

Cai'er felt slightly relieved, at least, so far, nothing had gone wrong.

But suddenly, a young man in front remained unmoved, turning his head and arrogantly saying, "Such a grand display, how come I don't know that the Blackwood Mansion has such figures?"

As the young man's words fell, the air seemed to freeze for a moment, the surrounding noise quietly dissipating, leaving only everyone holding their breath in anticipation.

Some who were close quickly moved away, standing aside to watch.

Cai'er's heart tightened abruptly, her gaze quickly scanning the surroundings, trying to glean a trace of useful information from the reactions of the crowd.

Just who was this man, daring to openly provoke on the Blackwood Mansion's territory?

The man was dressed in fine clothes, with delicate features, but the arrogance emanating from between his brows ruined his entire demeanor.

The several followers beside him were also arrogant, obviously not ordinary people.

Cai'er secretly calculated in her mind, if this situation was not handled properly, it would probably add a lot of trouble to this trip.

"Who are you, sir? State your name, lest there be any misunderstanding," Cai'er suppressed the two women beside her who were ready to attack, feigning composure, trying to overwhelm with momentum.

The man's lips curled into a playful smile, seemingly surprised by Cai'er's reaction: "Oh? A woman with guts.

I am the son of the Blackwood Mansion's Master, Hei Mu Bai.

Little lady, are you afraid?"

Hei Mu Bai!

As soon as this name came out, the surrounding crowd immediately buzzed with discussion, many showing awe.

The Hei Mu family in the Blackwood Mansion, Hei Mu Bai in the Hei Mu family.

If you were to say who in the Hei Mu family had a resounding reputation, it would really be this second-ranked playboy, Hei Mu Bai.

Walking dogs and taming eagles, greedy for wealth and lustful, arrogant and domineering,

But at the same time, he was also very discerning,

Never committing major offenses, constantly making minor mistakes,

Secretly kidnapping a girl to ravage was just a minor matter.

He had been lectured by the Blackwood Mansion Master to the point of almost giving up.

Seeing him today, he was indeed extraordinary. The crowd felt sorry for the woman in front of them.

Cai'er's heart jolted, not expecting to encounter someone with an official background here, let alone that the other party would state their background so directly.

Yes, the Blackwood Mansion Master was his father, with such a background,

Anyone would want to be arrogant.

Cai'er was, after all, someone who had been trained by Cheng Feng, and quickly adjusted her mindset, smiling and saying: "So it's Young Master Hei Mu, I was impolite.

If there is any disturbance, please forgive us.

There is no grand display, it's just a maidservant from the family going out to shop."

Hearing this, a playful and curious look flashed in Hei Mu Bai's eyes. He didn't seem eager to pursue an answer, but instead looked at Cai'er's group with interest.

After a moment, he laughed and said: "What a quick-witted woman, forget it, forget it.

I have business today, this young master will not pursue it.

However, if we have the chance another day, I must invite the lady for a cup of tea, to chat about life's ideals."

As soon as these words came out, the crowd erupted in an uproar.

Leng Feng's face darkened, his hand touching the hilt of his knife.

A subject dies for the insults of his lord,

To dare say such words openly in the street, anyone else would probably be splattered with blood.

Xu Miao and Zhao Wei beside Cai'er were even more expressionless, the blood in their bodies surging wildly, ready to strike at any moment.

Zhao Wei patted Cai'er's arm, whispering in Cai'er's ear: "If he says another word, don't stop me."

Immediately, she made a gesture, and the maids who were originally waiting for the mistress's order instantly became vigilant,

The blood in their bodies surged, waiting for a thunderous strike.

Martial artists cultivate a breath,

If the breath they care about is gone, the path of martial arts will naturally disappear.

Xu Miao even quietly took out a dagger, ready to strike.

Perhaps sensing the blood flow of the maids, Hei Mu Bai's guards surrounded him.

The one with the highest martial arts cultivation whispered in Hei Mu Bai's ear: "Young master, I major in the 'Surprising Eye Skill', and I am very sensitive to blood fluctuations.

The other side is not easy to deal with, the two leading women are at least in the late stage of Blood Refining, or even the Bone Forging realm, and the other maids also have considerable martial arts cultivation.

Relying on us alone, I'm afraid we won't be able to handle it, should we call for more people to come over?"

A look of surprise flashed across Hei Mu Bai's face, his own guards' highest cultivation was only the Blood Refining Completion, after all,

The other side actually had female martial artists in the Bone Forging realm?

Hei Mu Bai's expression remained unchanged, pushing away the close-fitting guard,

Laughing casually: "Hahaha, just kidding, just kidding. What's with this atmosphere?"

Then he kicked the follower beside him: "What are you waiting for, hurry up and clear the way, we still have serious business!"

The follower looked at the current situation and instantly understood: "Okay, young master, I'll go right away."

"Make way, make way, don't look, don't look."

Watching Hei Mu Bai leave with a few lackeys, the crowd's eyes toward Cai'er's group became even more fearful.

The group was all women, all with martial arts cultivation, and with high-level female martial artists protecting them, the group was probably really of no small origin.

In chaotic times, it was already not easy for ordinary families to eat their fill and dress warmly.

If you were to practice martial arts, individuals would prefer to cultivate men first.

After all, men practice martial arts, mostly to protect their families and homes, seeking a future.

If the family was prosperous, they would arrange for women to practice martial arts to protect themselves.

But for women to practice martial arts, those who succeed without a large family,

There is no other reason, women are born with 'Kuei Blood' creating dragons, the cost is even greater.

After one round after another, a family without a thick foundation would have died halfway.

No one could have imagined that there would be such a "spendthrift" as Cheng Feng,

Actually taking out such resources to allow his female relatives to practice martial arts,

And with remarkable results.

Looking at the maids in front of him successively stirring up the blood in their bodies, the robes and skirts slightly swaying, Steward Zhang understood that the person in front of him was probably really of no small origin.

The somewhat arrogant heart that he originally had had long since disappeared, and he carefully smiled and said: "Madam, are we still going in?"

Cai'er smiled slightly and nodded: "The things that the master of the house has instructed must still be done, come, Steward Zhang, let's go in."

"Master of the house?"

A look of contemplation flashed across Steward Zhang's face, and then he led Cai'er's group into the gate of the Four Seas Trading Company with a smile on his face.

Guests are guests, since they are here with instructions,

Presumably, the spending must be considerable?

In this way, his commission can be expected.

He found a fragrant and elegant private room.

Tea, fruits, and snacks were brought to the table, and after tasting the tea and resting for a while,

Steward Zhang said: "Madam, what are you looking for in the Four Seas Trading Company?

The Four Seas Trading Company has everything.

As long as you open your mouth, we can definitely do it for you."

Watching Steward Zhang fuss for a long time before starting on the topic,

Cai'er secretly said: "As expected of the steward of the Four Seas Trading Company, this composure is really not simple."

Then she smiled and said: "Nothing else, my master asked me to come over just to see if there are any pleasing houses.

We've lived in those houses for a long time, and there's nothing new.
