Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 225 You're spying on us

At this moment, Lin Yue said, "There's nothing we can do about this. This time, it's the sect leader's decision."

"What does your sect leader mean?" Xu Yao asked curiously.

At this moment, Lin Yue said, "The sect leader also instructed us to follow Brother Xu and Brother Chen Yue."

"It's mainly because of the divine sword of White Sword Manor," Lin Yue said.

Lin Yue was quite frank, which immediately reminded Xu Yao of the time at White Sword Manor.

Because of this incident, Sect Leader Murong Le directly forbade everyone from leaving.

And now that Lin Yue has been brought here, Xu Yao said, "I have to say, your sect leader is really being unfair."

"Didn't we already have him search us? What's going on? Why are you being sent to monitor us, afraid we'll lose the divine sword somewhere else?"

"So you want to secretly follow them, right?" Xu Yao said.

"Brother Xu, this matter is a problem of our White Sword Manor, but there is nothing we can do about it. We hope you can understand."

"Whether I understand it or not is irrelevant; what's important is that what you're doing is really quite interesting."

"Anyway, I won't go into other things, but here's the problem, and you've seen it now."

"You don't have that so-called divine sword, do you? Since you don't have it, there's no need for us to waste our time."

"Now that you're all here, let's go, Senior Brother Lin Yue, and return to White Sword Manor together."

"I need to have a serious talk with your sect leader," Xu Yao said.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Lin Yue didn't say anything, so he took the two back to White Sword Manor.

This time, Xu Yao's meaning was very clear: since things had already come to this point, there was no need to waste any more time.

Anyway, this guy just wants to get his hands on the divine sword, so it doesn't matter who gets it since it's not with him.

This isn't a big deal, but since things have already come to this, it's fine.

Then there's no need for further explanation.

At this moment, Xu Yao understood that now that things had come to this point, it was up to Murong Le to explain himself.

At this moment, Xu Yao put everything else aside and took Chen Yue with him to White Sword Manor.

Upon returning to White Sword Manor and meeting its lord, Murong Le, Xu Yao immediately said, "Lord, what do you mean?"

"That's a bit unfair of you. You're always giving us all this stuff right from the start. It's not right for you to do this now," Xu Yao said.

Murong Le, who had also learned of Lin Yue's situation beforehand, naturally said, "Brother Xu, I know I wronged you in this matter."

"I just hope Brother Xu can understand that if you were the sect leader, Brother Xu, you could do whatever you wanted in this matter, but there's nothing I could do about it."

"This is something that must be done, after all. If we don't figure it out, then naturally no one will be willing to do it."

"Now you see, that's how things are. Now we need to find this divine sword."

“But since Brother Xu didn’t see the divine sword, then things are hard to say,” Murong Le said.

At this moment, Xu Yaocai said, "What's so hard to say? I don't have the divine sword you want. Did you lose your divine sword yourself?"

"Are you just going to grab anyone and ask them for the divine sword? I'd say that's a bit unethical of you guys to do that," Xu Yao said directly.

After hearing Xu Yao's words, Murong Le finally said, "Brother Xu Yao, I need your help this time too."

"No way," Xu Yao refused outright. "You White Sword Manor don't do things this way. Do you expect me to help you now?"

"Do you think I'm stupid?" Xu Yao said.

Murong Le smiled and said, "This isn't something I did for nothing; there's a reward."

Upon hearing Murong Le's words, Xu Yao replied, "What is it?"

Murong Le said with a smile, "Brother Xu, I'd like to trouble you two to go to the auction house with Lin Yue and get your hands on the Nine Dragon Pill."

"If you can get your hands on this and bring it back to me, I will thank you properly," Murong Le said.

"Nine Dragon Pill?" Xu Yao looked at Murong Le with some surprise: "What is this Nine Dragon Pill?"

"This Nine Dragon Pill is a good thing. It is a good pill that can improve cultivation and greatly replenish the body."

"These Nine Dragon Pills are almost never seen. This time, it's not easy for one to appear, so naturally many people want it. Now that's the case..."

"Then I'll have to trouble Brother Xu to make the trip. With Brother Xu's help, I believe the Nine Dragon Pill won't get away," Murong Le said.

Upon hearing Murong Le's words, Xu Yao also said, "This Nine Dragon Pill is indeed a good thing, but I don't think I have an obligation to help you."

Murong Le said, "Don't worry, Brother Xu. If you help me with this matter, I will definitely reward you handsomely."

"I, Murong Le, also know the principle that you should give something in return for your lover's help, so please rest assured, Brother Xu."

Xu Yao simply said, "Everything is negotiable on this matter; we won't discuss anything else."

"But here's the thing: I don't need your compensation, but you need to know one thing."

"I don't want any reward from you, but please don't cause me any trouble in the future."

"I'll get the Nine Dragon Pill for you this time as a favor, but this time, regarding that so-called divine sword of yours..."

"Let's call it even. Don't send anyone to harass me again, or I really won't hold back," Xu Yao said.

Murong Le nodded after hearing this: "Okay, we'll do it your way. In short, this matter is all up to you, Brother Xu."

Xu Yao was helpless. This guy had caused some problems, but they weren't too serious.

In short, Xu Yao knew in his heart that since he had already come this far, he just needed to handle these matters properly.

As for the rest, there's really no need for that. After all, Xu Yao knows that if he can handle these things well...

If Murong Le doesn't come looking for trouble, that would be the best thing.

So what is there left for me to think about?

Xu Yao nodded in agreement and then led several disciples from White Sword Manor directly to the auction house.
