So, Bai Ye taught him a method, allowing him to disguise his energy fluctuations to appear as those of a second-level superpower at its peak. The method was indeed effective, as no one at the party had noticed it previously. Little did they know that when they arrived here, Bai Zhengyi would see through it!
He suddenly became younger and needed a reason, Bai Zhengli thought it over and felt that advancing in level was the most reliable explanation, so he simply admitted it. It wasn’t that he was honest, but rather he couldn’t let Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi suspect Fang Yuxin. If they knew Fang Yuxin had the mysterious Bone Marrow Cleansing Fruit, their greed would surely be piqued, and then the Fang Family would be in danger!
To prevent Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi from suspecting, Bai Zhengli nodded and admitted, then said, "After seeing Xiao Ye alive, the superpower inside me started to become unstable, and I suddenly advanced."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi couldn’t help but curse inwardly, "Such good luck," followed by Bai Zhengyi managing a smile and congratulating Bai Zhengli, saying, "With this, our Bai Family has gained another third-level superpower user!"
Hearing this, Bai Zhengli and Bai Ye exchanged a look, unable to suppress a snort in their hearts—Bai Zhengyi’s words were a clear reminder of their identity as Bai Family members! He meant for them not to have any other ulterior motives.
Bai Zhengli immediately felt disheartened. He had come here at this time because he was aware of the Secret Research Institute’s situation, thinking that as a member of the Bai Family, it was his duty to contribute and not let the Bai Family be destroyed at the hands of the scoundrel Zhao Qiankun. But now, looking at the righteous appearances of Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi, he couldn’t help but start to wonder if everything he had done for the Bai Family was worth it?
Noticing Bai Zhengli’s mood, Bai Ye, unwilling to continue playing along with Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi, said, "Uncle, what is the matter that you called us over so late?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi were displeased. Just as Bai Yi was about to get angry, Bai Zhengyi glared at him and then took a deep look at Bai Ye before speaking, "Here’s the situation. I just received reliable information that Zhao Qiankun is devising a conspiracy against our Bai Family! He has forged some evidence, trying to slander our family for experimenting on live subjects, aiming to ruin our reputation and split the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, his intentions are extremely malicious! I’ve called you here to discuss how we should handle this."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhengli and Bai Ye couldn’t help but find it laughable. Bai Zhengyi really had the gall to say it! It was clearly their own doing—running a Secret Research Institute and using live subjects for experiments—and with just a meeting of lips, it turned into Zhao Qiankun’s slander! Despite this dishonesty, he still had the audacity to act morally. If the two of them didn’t know the truth, they might have really been fooled by him!
Moreover, their branch of the family was always oppressed and had little standing within the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, always marginalized. Bai Zhengyi never involved them in discussions unless he intended to use them! freewёbnoνel.com
