White Dew turned into a ghost, Zhu Yu perished.
The Bai family father and son were severely wounded.
Sure enough, the Wenjiao Sect’s power was immense, almost able to cover the sky with one hand.
What happened to the Bai family that night was completely covered up without a single leak.
Throughout the entire Haojing City, not even a hint of related news surfaced.
Lu Qian actually wanted to release Li Erya ahead of schedule, letting him go to the Bai family to claim his “rightfully and legally” wedded wife.
But after a moment’s thought, Lu Qian did not do so.
Instead, he simply increased his manpower and openly monitored the Bai family.
Even when a servant who bought vegetables or rice left the Bai residence, more than a dozen eunuch spies from the Palace Guard would closely follow behind.
White Dew held a grudge against Bai Changkong and the others.
After becoming a ghostly entity, White Dew’s thoughts could no longer be judged with human logic.
She would definitely find the Bai family to cut off all ties; as long as White Dew appeared, that jade flute and red embroidered shoes could very well show up too.
Right now, Lu Qian was using the Bai family as bait, waiting to catch a bigger fish.
