Chapter 1724: Chapter 1722-Lucky Strike

Otherwise, where would Yu Bing get this information?

“Don’t …” Huoxing jumped in shock when he heard that Xiaochen was going to ask. He stopped him subconsciously, but he regretted it a little. If he stopped him, wouldn’t that mean he was guilty?

“Don ‘t? Why? You’re afraid your lie will be exposed?” Xiaochen had already believed most of it, but now that Huoxing said it, he was starting to doubt it.

“No… I mean, if you go and ask him like this, how could he admit it?” Huoxing said, “I’m guessing that Lin Yi was the one who told young master Yubing about me getting the Qi gathering pill, and his goal was to make you blame me, but you’re a wise man, how could you fall for that so easily?”

Huoxing was a careful person, and so he listened to Xiaochen’s words carefully. He caught on to the news that Lin Yi was in the test as well, and so he started to pin the blame on Lin Yi.

“No need to flatter me, get to the point!” Xiaochen said with a wave of his hand-he wasn’t buying it.

“Yes …” Huoxing quickly continued his “analysis,”””So, think about it, if you were a good friend of young master Yu Bing, would you admit that you stole their pill?”

“What you said is not without reason!” Xiaochen nodded,”but, I’ll still write to him and ask if he’s a male thief, and if he’s involved in the grave robbing!”

“This …” Huoxing was extremely scared, but he couldn’t say it out loud. He continued to persuade,””Head, you see, young master Yu Bing didn’t mention anything about Lin Yi in the letter, so he’s trying to cover for Lin Yi. How can he admit it if you ask him like this? If it were me, I would also deny it!”

“Oh, it doesn’t matter. Just pay attention to some skills when you ask!” Xiaochen waved his hand,”When the time comes, I’ll just ask him why he didn’t tell me that Lin Yi was a male thief and that he got the Qi gathering pill. Why did you hide the truth? I didn’t explain it in detail and pretended that I knew everything so I could ask him!”

…

“This …” Huoxing felt helpless. He really didn’t have any reason to argue! It had to be said that Xiaochen’s suggestion made a lot of sense-as a Yu, he wouldn’t dare to hide anything from Xiaochen in this kind of tone!

However, if Yu Bing really didn’t know anything, no matter how hard he tried to blame him or pretend that he knew everything, he would never admit it! And so Huoxing was worried that this was all a spontaneous idea, and that he’d just come up with a lie. What would he do when the truth came out?

“Alright, this matter is settled!” Xiaochen waved his hand,”if it really was Lin Yi, then I won’t make things difficult for you. I know that Lin Yi has some skills, but if you’re just making it up, then Hmph, you know the consequences!”

With that, Xiaochen waved his hand impatiently as he picked up his cup. Huoxing knew that Xiaochen was letting him leave, and he could only sigh helplessly. There was no point in talking about this anymore-he had to wait for the result!

Huoxing walked back to his room, only to find Yu Liu following behind him. He knew he was being watched!

“I hope that Yu Bing can help me too!” Huoxing prayed for a miracle to happen …

Xiaochen watched as Huoxing left, and quickly made his way to the old Yu’s training grounds. This was a huge matter, and he needed to discuss it with his father!

The old elder was a little curious about Xiaochen’s return,”I say, Chen, why are you back? Is it because of Yu Huoxing’s incident?”

“Yes … It’s because of Yu Huoxing …” Xiaochen was impressed by his father’s sharp eyes and nodded.

“You can’t even make a decision on such a small matter?” The old elder was a little surprised-Xiaochen wasn’t like this before. Dealing with a Yu Huoxing wasn’t a big deal, was there a need to discuss it with him?

“There’s more to this than meets the eye!” Xiaochen shook his head,”father, I’ve done as you said and showed the letter to Yu Huoxing, and he told me the reason …”

“Oh? What’s the reason?” The elder of house Yu was curious as well-what was the secret behind this?

“It’s like this …” Xiaochen repeated what Huoxing had said, as well as his own analysis of the suspicious points, and the credibility of his words.

“According to what he said, it’s possible, but also impossible …” The old elder nodded,””It’s the right thing to write a letter to ask. You can make your own decision on this matter. Just tell me the result. It’s not a big deal!”

“Yes, then I’ll write a letter to ask!” Xiaochen replied.

After returning from the house Yu’s old ancestor’s training grounds, Xiaochen wrote a letter to blame Yu Bing. Of course, he didn’t go into details, only using a certain tone to say that he knew that Lin Yi was involved in the raid, and that Lin Yi had gotten the Qi gathering pill. Why did Yu Bing hide this from him?

As for the details, Xiaochen didn’t mention a single thing-this was also why he didn’t want to expose himself. If Yu Bing really was up to something, he’d explain himself after reading the letter. If he wrote too much, it’d only make it seem like he was trying to hide something.

After writing the letter, Xiaochen quickly walked to his daughter’s room. He was an Earth Class late phase peak, and he intentionally didn’t make a sound, so Yu Ning naturally couldn’t hear him. The other house Yu disciples and servants didn’t stop him either.

And so, Xiaochen was able to get to Yu Ning’s room without any trouble, only to find her painting.

Xiaochen didn’t mind Yu Ning’s drawing, but when he saw the person in the drawing, he frowned!

“Cough cough!” Xiaochen coughed.

Yu Ning was shocked, the brush in her hand trembled. The painting was ruined … She didn’t expect a person to suddenly appear in the quiet room! Moreover, when Yu Ning turned around, she found that the person was her father. Her face suddenly turned red and she wanted to take down her drawing board.

“I’ve already seen it, there’s no need to hide it!” Xiaochen had wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with his daughter, but she was still drawing Lin Yi! (To be continued.)
