C38 Anxiety of the Southern Salamander
After Yan Xiaoke finished her answer, Nan Yang smiled at her and said, "Alright then, I'll go look for Young Lord first. Thank you for your hard work!"
As soon as he finished, he patted Yan Xiaoke's shoulder with a pleased expression on his face, expressing his satisfaction and affirmation towards her work attitude.
"South Housekeeper, this is what I should do. It's not hard work." Yan Xiaoke still wore a smile on her face as she said humbly:
However, she felt awkward and uncomfortable when South Housekeeper patted her shoulder. However, no matter how uncomfortable she felt, Yan Xiaoke didn't dare to show it on her face.
"Hahaha!" You don't have to be too modest. When the Patriarch and Madam return, I will definitely report to them and let them reward you well. " After Nan Yang finished laughing, he knocked on the door of the study and then pushed it open.
"Young Lord." They first greeted Young Lord respectfully at the door, then closed it again.
After Nan Yang walked into the study, Yan Xiaoke shook her head and smiled. She then stood straight at the door again.
She didn't dare to think about the rewards.
As long as the Patriarch and the Madam felt that she was okay, she would thank the heavens. It was because of her appearance that no one would have any good impressions of her.
After Nan Yang closed the door, he walked up to the desk and looked at Nan Shaoloong who was reading the email. He handed over the invitation in his hand and said, "Young Lord, this is Patriarch Ouyang's invitation for his sixtieth birthday."
Nan Shaoloong's eyes moved away from the computer on the table and took the invitation from Nan Yang. He casually opened the invitation and read it before placing it on the table.
"Uncle Nan, prepare a set of clothes for Yan Xiaoke. I want to take her to Ouyang Family." As Nan Shaoloong said that, he tapped the table with his right index finger.
Ouyang Family was one of the Four Great Clans of the Empire, and it was also the clan with the greatest strength amongst the Four Major Clans.
Therefore, for Patriarch Ouyang's birthday banquet the day after tomorrow, as long as the empire had a little bit of power, all the families would go pay their respects.
"Young Lord, you want Yan Xiaoke to come into contact with the person behind her, right?" When Nan Yang heard his family's Young Lord's words, he immediately understood.
He also felt that this was the best chance. After all, as long as there was any powerful family in the Heavenly Empire, they would all go to congratulate Yan Xiaoke. The person standing behind Yan Xiaoke would definitely be there as well. However …
"However, Young Lord, isn't it strange for you to bring a female servant to attend such a grand birthday banquet? Especially Yan Xiaoke and the people behind her, I'm afraid they might suspect something and thus don't dare to come into contact with them." Nan Yang voiced out his worried thoughts.
"Uncle Nan, do as I say! "You should also know that my parents will be back soon, so we can't drag this on any longer." Nan Shaoloong said one of the reasons in his heart. As for the other reason, he couldn't let Uncle Nan know about it now.
Nan Yang finally came to a realization after hearing Young Lord's words. No wonder Young Lord had found such an inappropriate opportunity. It turned out that he was afraid that if the family head kept Yan Xiaoke alive after they returned, they would be in great danger.
Sigh! His family's Young Lord was a filial son and a worthy elder brother. He was keeping Yan Xiaoke by his side so as not to be in danger, but he was worried that his family would come into contact with her.
"Young Lord, I will immediately do as you say. "Don't worry, I'll definitely give you a reasonable excuse so that Yan Xiaoke won't suspect anything." As Nan Yang said this, his mind began to spin and he immediately thought of a good excuse.
Aiya! This person! He really was going to be forced.
He had immediately come up with such a good excuse without anyone suspecting anything. After all, it was perfectly reasonable. Isn't it?
"Oh!" "Then what kind of excuse does Uncle Nan want to use to make Yan Xiaoke not doubt him?" Nan Shaoloong asked this question not because he hoped that Uncle Nan would come up with a good excuse, but because he was afraid that Uncle Nan would interfere and disrupt his plans.
"Young Lord, this is my excuse …" Nan Yang explained the excuse that he came up with in a logical manner.
"Young Lord, what do you think? I'm sure that if I told Yan Xiaoke that, she wouldn't suspect anything. After all, we already had some preparation for her when we first transferred her in. As for how to make the person behind her not doubt, it's up to you, Young Lord. "
After Nan Yang said this, he looked at his own family's Young Lord happily. He really felt that the excuse he came up with could not be any better.
"Uncle Nan, this excuse of yours is very good. I'll follow your instructions." After Nan Shaoloong heard this, he also felt that this excuse was very good.
"Alright, I'll do it right away." Being able to get the affirmation of his own family's Young Lord, Nan Yang's smiling face became even more pronounced.
"En!" Nan Shaoloong nodded and replied.
Nan Yang answered and turned around to walk out.
"Bam!"
After the door was closed by Nan Yang, Nan Shaoloong showed a serious face.
These days, as Yan Xiaoke injected energy into his body, Nan Shaoloong felt more and more addicted. He wished that Yan Xiaoke could constantly inject energy into him.
Because Yan Xiaoke had been continuously channeling energy into him for half a month, his level 18 superpower had been slightly loosened.
This was too shocking.
One must know that it was harder and harder to advance as one's superpower progressed. He had been stuck at the top of the level 18 bottle for more than two years. However, he didn't expect Yan Xiaoke, who had helped him inject energy into it for over half a month, to actually cause it to loosen up.
This caused him to no longer be impatient towards that energy. Instead, he was jealous, wanting to seize it at all costs.
However, at the same time, there were many doubts.
That energy was so magical, why was the person behind him willing to use it against him? It would be ridiculous if he just wanted to get addicted to it.
If his Discipline could be upgraded quickly, addiction wouldn't be a big deal. Plus, this addiction wouldn't have any negative effects. For example, the brain could not control itself to do things that were out of control.
It would be too much of a waste of time and effort for the people behind him to use that energy to deal with him. Wouldn't it be better to use that energy to quickly increase his entire family's strength and become the strongest family in the empire?
Or could it be that the energy wasn't just addicting? There were other dangers, but none of them could be detected in a short period of time.
The more Nan Shaoloong thought about it, the more he could not understand it and the more anxious he became.
This was also the reason why he wanted to bring Yan Xiaoke along even though he knew it wasn't the right time to do so. He could not wait to quickly uncover the identity of the person behind him, so that he could solve the mystery in his heart one by one.
Of course, the most important thing was still to obtain the source of the energy.
