Chapter 57: The Mythical Beast Bifan
Wang Nan was not polite either. He drove non-stop and had exhausted a lot of energy by now, so he followed the old man into the Duke's Mansion.
The lights were on in the courtyard, and some handymen were running around in a hurry.
"Let the guests see the joke." The old man said while leading the way, "To be honest, after the news of the disappearance of the young master came, the madam also sent some people to go out to search, but there is no news yet."
"Please go this way." The old man led Wang Nan around a few corners and came to a guest room. "Thank you for bringing the young master back. Some clothes have been prepared in the room. If the guest doesn't mind, please change into it." ”
Wang Nan flew all the way with Dai Yueheng on his back, and the clothes on his body were stained with blood, so he nodded and walked into the guest room.
There are already two maids waiting here in the guest room. They are holding several pieces of white clothes in their hands. They are of fine workmanship. Under the light, you can faintly see the tiger-like dark patterns.
"This..." Wang Nan looked back at the old man.
The old man understood and waved to the room. The two maids put their clothes on the bed and walked out, then helped Wang Nan close the door.
There was no popular drama of the maid helping to change clothes. Wang Nan quickly changed his clothes, put away the clothes and sat in the room for a while. After a while, a knock on the door came from outside the house.
There was still the old man outside the door. After seeing Wang Nan open the door, he said, "Please come to the front hall to have a chat. Madam would like to see you."
Wang Nan had never met the Duchess before. The last time I followed Dai Yueheng to the Duke's Mansion as a guest, the Duchess was not at the Mansion for business, and there was no chance to meet her at other times. He was also somewhat curious about this famous but unknown duchess.
Wang Nan's curiosity was quickly satisfied and he came to the front hall, where a woman was sitting on the main seat. He was probably in his thirties, and was wearing a dark robe. He looked graceful and luxurious, and his appearance was good, but his eyebrows were a little narrow, and he lacked a bit of grandeur.
There is an aura of flowing soul power on his body, and he is obviously a soul master, but his cultivation is not advanced. There were two maids standing behind her, one of whom was quite powerful, which made Wang Nan take another look.
"You are Wang Nan, please sit down quickly." The Duchess pointed to the seat in front of her, "I often hear Yao'er mention you and say that I have learned a lot from you. Now I see that you are indeed extraordinary."
"Well, although I am in the Duke's Palace, I am also a parent, and my thoughts are all on my two children. I have been having trouble sleeping and eating since I heard the news of Yao'er's disappearance. Thanks to you for bringing Yao'er back."
When the Duchess said this, her eyes changed slightly, "Can you tell me in detail what you and Yao'er went through?"
Wang Nan would not really think that the Duchess in front of him was an ordinary mother who devoted herself to her children. Although her strength is not obvious, her mind is not comparable to that of Wang Nan. You must know that the Duke of White Tiger has led his troops on an expedition for several years, and this lady has single-handedly managed the Duke's palace in order.
Now it seems that he came to ask Wang Nan because he was concerned about Dai Yueheng, but I'm afraid there are some other meanings in it.
However, Wang Nan had nothing to hide and truthfully told what he saw and what he had experienced in the Star Dou Forest.
"Well, thank you for taking the risk to bring Keyer back." After listening to Wang Nan's story, the Duchess sighed again and frowned, "I know that you are a disciple of Shrek Academy, so naturally you have justice in your heart. But as a mother, I still have a thank you gift for you to accept.”
As he said that, a maid came forward and handed over a ring. Judging from its workmanship, it was obviously a storage soul tool. Wang Nan's mental power was scanned slightly, and he "saw" a dazzling array of things.
"It's just my thoughts, nothing compared to Keyer." Before Wang Nan could be polite, the Duchess had already blocked Wang Nan's words.
Wang Nan took the storage soul guide and put it in his arms instead of wearing it on his hand. He usually uses the Coiling Dragon Stick in battle, so he rarely wears a storage soul guide on his hand.
"It's getting late. You should go to bed early. After Keyer wakes up, I will ask him to thank you in person." Wang Nan exchanged greetings with the Duchess after accepting the thank you gift, and then returned to the guest room. …
Early the next morning, before it got completely bright, Wang Nan heard a knock on the door.
"Junior brother, it's me."
Opening the door, Dai Yueheng was standing in front of the door. After a night, he had fully woken up. His left arm was tightly bandaged, and his face was still pale, but he was able to move normally.
Seeing Wang Nan, Dai Yueheng bowed deeply to Wang Nan and said, "Thank you, junior brother, for saving your life."
"Are you okay?" Wang Nan helped Dai Yueheng up.
"Thanks to Junior Brother for saving me, it's no longer serious." Dai Yueheng said apologetically, "I am dragging Junior Brother down with this matter."
When Dai Yueheng returned home, he was not alone like Wang Nan. There were several guards around him.
However, on the way home yesterday, Dai Yueheng and his party suddenly encountered an ambush. Several guards were killed and injured. Dai Yueheng was able to escape because the Soul Saint protected him behind him.
Later, when the Contra who chased Dai Yueheng saw Wang Nan, he saw that his strength was not high, so he had the idea of killing him to silence him.
Speaking of the guard, Dai Yueheng's face was a little ugly, but he quickly put away his emotions and took Wang Nan's wrist, "Junior brother, please come with me. I have a gift for you."
Dai Yueheng led Wang Nan through the Duke's Mansion until they came to a wide courtyard. There are tall trees planted in the courtyard. At first glance, it looks like you are in a forest.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Wang Nan felt the strong aura of the spirit beast. This should be the place where the White Tiger Duke's Mansion raises soul beasts, and there are quite a few of them.
"This is the tiger feeding garden in the mansion."
"Tiger Feeding Garden?"
"Yes." Dai Yueheng nodded, "Junior brother, I don't know. Our White Tiger Spirit has a strong bloodline, and most of our descendants are tiger spirits, so the demand for spirit rings is relatively simple. There is one in the White Tiger Duke's Palace. The White Tiger Forest specializes in raising tiger soul beasts for the children in the mansion to obtain soul rings."
"Of course, if a soul beast with special bloodline appears among them, it will be brought back to the house and raised here. For us soul masters, the most important things are soul rings and soul bones. And this one I want to give to my junior brother Although the gift is not a soul bone, it is better than ordinary soul bones."
With that said, several guards brought a soul beast to Wang Nan and Dai Yueheng.
It looks like a white tiger, with a broad body and a solemn posture, but the head and tail are different, and it looks like other spirit beasts.
"This is the gift I'm talking about, the mythical beast 'Bi'an'."
