"Jiao Er, do you know where that servant, Little White, has gone to?" Xiao Rong asked straightforwardly.
"Xiaobai?" How would I know? Didn't you chase him away, father? " Xiao Jiao'er asked with a sneer.
"You … What's with your attitude? "I'm your father …" Xiao Rong's face immediately darkened after he was scolded by Xiao Jiao'er. A trace of anger could be seen on his face.
"Do you ever take me for your daughter?" Xiao Jiao'er asked with resentment.
Xiao Rong was also speechless after Xiao Jiao'er's question, because he knew that he seemed to have done too much on that day. Right now, everyone in the Xiao Family were discussing this matter in secret, and some even believed that Xiao Jiao'er did not belong to him. Otherwise, under that kind of situation, why would he not even plead for help and let Cao Qingxun do whatever she wanted with Xiao Jiao'er?
The other Xiao Family s present also revealed strange expressions. They did not seem to think that Xiao Jiao'er would ask Xiao Rong so openly. This was unlike the Third Miss they knew.
"Third sister, why are you talking to your father like that?" Xiao Mei reprimanded when she heard this.
"Second sister, then how do you think I should talk to my father, who watched as his daughter was disfigured without saying a word?" Xiao Jiao'er turned her head coldly and looked at Xiao Mei with a piercing gaze.
Xiao Mei met Xiao Jiao'er's gaze and was momentarily stunned. This was the first time she had seen Xiao Jiao'er look at her in such a manner. It was as if this wasn't the Third Sister that she knew.
However, anyone who experienced what happened to Xiao Jiao'er would feel disheartened.
"Third Sister, in that situation, for the sake of Xiao Family, father could only do so. Is the existence of Xiao Family not as important as your face?" Xiao Qinyu said gloomily. What the hell was going on? Xiao Jiao'er was still messing around here.
"Is that so? I know. If there's nothing else, I'll head back to my room now. " Xiao Jiao'er heard Xiao Qinyu's words and became expressionless. After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.
"This girl …" Seeing Xiao Jiao'er leave, Xiao Rong slapped the table angrily.
"Father, don't be angry. Third Sister is just being noisy." Right now, I have to think of a way to find that Lil 'White first. " Xiao Mei hurriedly comforted him.
"Looks like we can only announce the bounty to the entire city. Maybe someone can give us some clues." Xiao Qinyu thought for a while and suggested.
"That's a good idea. Someone …" Xiao Rong nodded and immediately ordered people to prepare the bounty.
On the same day, this Xiao Family posted a notice of disparity, including Bai Yuhao's portrait. The initial bounty was only one thousand silver. One day later, as there was still no news of Bai Yuhao, the reward was three thousand silver coins. However, another day later, there was still no news of Bai Yuhao, so he mentioned another five thousand silver coins.
On the third day, Xiao Family could no longer sit still, so he decided to place a bounty of ten thousand silver, or a thousand gold. Perhaps in the eyes of the rich, a thousand taels of gold wasn't much, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it was no different from a mountain of gold or silver.
Therefore, the entire Barren City also started to stir up. Almost everyone in the city started to search for the relevant clues about Bai Yuhao, as they all wanted to receive this expensive bounty.
At the same time, Bai Yuhao, who had travelled across the desert with the Kylin King of Seven Clouds not long ago and was about to return to the Barren City, still did not know that the entire Barren City's people were looking for him.
After that, he planned to return to the Holy Dragon Kingdom. However, before doing so, he also planned to make a trip to the capital of the Woodgod Kingdom, because he wanted to find Mu Ziye to confirm that Ji Wushuang and the rest were safe and sound long ago, and also to inquire about the current situation of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. He had stayed in the Imperial City for a period of time, and had not heard anything about the Holy Dragon Kingdom, so he also wanted to understand the current situation of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, so as to not run into any unnecessary troubles while returning to the Holy Dragon Kingdom.
But just as Bai Yuhao was about to step into the Barren City city gate, he heard a shout beside him: "It's him, it's him … He's the one whose Xiao Family was placed in the bounty. "
In an instant, the entire street seemed to be filled with a crowd of people. The crowd was dense and surrounded Bai Yuhao in the blink of an eye.
When Bai Yuhao saw this shocking scene, his face couldn't help but change. Originally, he planned to run away immediately, but after thinking carefully, he felt that something was amiss. Why would Xiao Family reward him with such a reward? Of course, he wasn't worried about what the Xiao Family would do to him, but he couldn't help but think of Xiao Jiao'er. Perhaps it was because Xiao Jiao'er looked like she was a purebred, so he always felt a little love towards Xiao Jiao'er.
Bai Yuhao pondered for a moment, then walked forward. At the same time, his entire body emitted a powerful aura, shocking the entire land, causing the Barren City citizens who were about to surround him to not dare to come any closer. The crowd in front of him opened up a path.
After Bai Yuhao passed through the crowd, he headed towards the Xiao Family. Those citizens of Barren City did not give up and followed Bai Yuhao.
The other citizens of the Barren City who found out about Bai Yuhao's appearance also rushed over, and very quickly, the streets surrounding the Xiao Family were already surrounded so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
Almost all of the Barren City citizens who had rushed over wanted to see what kind of person was the person who was being placed a bounty on the Xiao Family.
However, when the majority of Barren City citizens saw Bai Yuhao, they were also a bit disappointed, because no matter how they looked at Bai Yuhao who was travel worn out, they all looked extremely unremarkable and did not seem to be some peerless expert. However, they felt that Bai Yuhao had an invisible aura around him that made them not dare to approach him.
When Bai Yuhao walked into the Xiao Family s as if he was strolling leisurely, the Xiao Family disciples that saw Bai Yuhao were also stunned for a while, but immediately went to report to Xiao Rong.
Very quickly, Xiao Rong personally arrived at the Xiao Family gate. In addition, Xiao Qinyu, Xiao Mei, and the rest of the Xiao Family people were following behind him.
"That... White... Young Master Bai, you finally … "I'm back." Xiao Rong didn't know what to call Bai Yuhao the moment he saw him. It was only after a moment that he reacted and cupped his hands with a face full of flattery.
