Old Master Han’s gaze drifted towards the main courtyard for a moment before he continued, “But she’s right. I like it very much. My wife doesn’t like these animals, but I’ve loved them since I was young. Because she doesn’t like them, I can’t raise them. However, I really like this white fox, so I decided to raise it.
My wife has never liked it, so she naturally objected. Of course, I was also unhappy. That was why I raised the little fox in the side courtyard. However, I didn’t expect that even so, my wife still couldn’t tolerate it.
“As for the little guy, it’s timid and will run away when it’s frightened. My wife has frightened the little fox many times, so you guys rest for two days. I’ll bring it to you after I comfort it.”
Old Master Han lowered his tone and explained to them. He was doing this to buy time. If he forcefully stopped them, he would give the Mystic Sect a reason to investigate. He could not stop them. However, after explaining like this, if Jiang Wanlin and the others wanted to forcefully investigate, he would have a reason to resist them.
His residence was not somewhere the Mystic Sect could do as they pleased.
Old Master Han’s sudden softness made his attitude clear. Jiang Wanlin and the other two looked at each other and understood that this was Old Master Han’s stalling plan.
They had already set up an array formation outside the residence. The white fox had no chance to escape, so they were not afraid.
Be it the Mystic Sect or the royal family, they were not bandits.
The three of them exchanged glances and understood what to do.
Wang Mingyue said, “It’s great that Old Master Han is so sensible. Then I’ll have to trouble you in your residence for the next two days.”
Old Master Han revealed a fake smile and nodded. “You’re welcome.’
Old Master Han quickly made arrangements for Jiang Wanlin and the others to stay far away.
Su Xiaolu saw this from the dark and quietly retreated.
After settling Jiang Wanlin and the other two down, Old Master Han rushed back to the side courtyard without stopping. He first instructed the servants to find an ordinary white fox. No matter how much it cost, he had to buy it. He couldn’t bear to see his darling get hurt at all.
After making the arrangements, Old Master Han entered the house.
He panicked a little. When he reached the bed, he said to the white fox,
“Darling, it’s really the people from the Mystic Sect. They insist on seeing you.”
Bai Ling was also frightened. Her hair stood on end. “Then I can’t accompany Master anymore. The people from the Mystic Sect have special techniques. They always kill us without any explanation. We demons don’t dare to go against them for fear of getting into trouble.”
“Don’t be afraid. I’ve already let them stay for the time being. I’ll brush them off for two days. I’ll get the servants to buy a white fox like you to replace you.
After they check it, you’ll be safe. Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone hurt you.”
Old Master Han picked up the white fox and stroked it gently.
This was his baby. How could he let anyone hurt her?
His treasure knew immortal techniques and could be his muse. It could also bring his career to another level. How was this a demon? It was clearly an immortal.
Bai Ling looked at Old Master Han’s flattering expression and leaned against him to thank him sweetly.
“Thank you, Master. Fortunately, I have Master. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do. In the future, I will definitely assist Master and let his life go smoothly.”
Bai Ling wheedled, making Old Master Han feel great.
Old Master Han stroked the white fox’s head and gritted his teeth. “All of this was caused by that vicious woman. I definitely won’t let her off easily. Be good, don’t worry. I’ll avenge you. I’ll have to trouble you for the next two days. You can’t go anywhere, but don’t worry. When the matter is resolved, I’ll take you wherever you want.”
The white fox liked to be free and unrestrained in the residence. However, in order to avoid those people from the Mystic Sect, she could only suffer.
With Old Master Han’s love, Bai Ling naturally thanked him sweetly.
After Old Master Han comforted her, he said that he had to focus on dealing with the Mystic Sect for the next two days and could not accompany it.
Bai Ling couldn’t ask for more, but she still thanked him gratefully.
With someone from the Mystic Sect targeting her, she could not stay. She planned to leave quietly at night after coaxing Old Master Han.
She had just measured the weather. She deeply understood that the people in the Mystic Sect all had special techniques. She could not fight head-on and could only stay away. She had become a spirit monster. As long as she could endure it and cultivate far away from the Mystic Sect for a few hundred years, everything would be different when the world changed a few more times.
Therefore, when she knew that she had provoked the Mystic Sect, she made up her mind to leave. Just like the previous few times, she ran far away before the people of the Mystic Sect attacked her.
Old Master Han did not know what the white fox in his arms was thinking. He only stroked the white fox’s fur lovingly, looking forward to the day she really turned into a human.
After a while, he reluctantly put it down and left resolutely.
Old Master Han arrived at the main courtyard and asked with a dark expression, “Where’s Madam?”
The maidservant replied in fear, “Madam just woke up and is eating.”
Mrs. Han woke up after sleeping for four hours and was in good spirits. After drinking the hot medicine for the night, she felt even more relaxed and hungry. With the comfort of the maidservant, Xiao Cui, she asked the servants to prepare food.
As she was eating, Old Master Han came aggressively.
Mrs. Han was first delighted to see him, but her eyes quickly dimmed. This man could even ignore his own son’s death. How could he care about her? Mrs. Han felt bitter, but she still bowed. “Master is here. Have you eaten?”
Old Master Han sat down with a cold expression. He looked at Mrs. Han coldly and said, “Madam Cai, I really didn’t expect you to do such a thing. Do you think I really don’t dare to divorce you?”
Mrs. Han’s heart sank. She swallowed and said, “If Master wants a divorce, so be it. But before that, I’ll definitely beat that beast until its soul dissipates and avenge my son.”
After being husband and wife for manv vears, their love had long been worn away. When he was cold and indifferent, and when he saw his child drown and did not care, when he protected the demon, her relationship with him gradually dissipated. However, after being husband and wife for many years, she could not help but have hope for him when she saw him.
However, this hope was also obliterated by his cold words. At most, she would not be Mrs. Han and return to being Madam Cai.
She could not be Mrs. Han, but she had to avenge her son.
Old Master Han’s expression was cold. He never expected Mrs. Han to dare to go against him. He was furious and was extremely stubborn. He calmed himself down and immediately changed his tone. “What should I say to you? Madam, you’re overthinking. Since you’ve also called the people from the Mystic Sect over, let them investigate. I’m afraid you won’t be able to withstand this outcome. If the fox isn’t a demon, you won’t be able to live with your son’s death for the rest of your life..”
