The Lion looked at Alex with a doubtful expression. "How do I trust that you were sent by Lord Bai?" he asked. "Do you have any proof?"
"Proof?" Alex asked. "Was what you saw just now not proof enough? You saw Lord Bai himself."
The lion hesitated when he heard that. He couldn't argue against those words, but it simply felt wrong. Bai Jingshen was said to have died 5 millennia ago. If others were to be trusted, it was even said that he had tried to conquer the Central Continent.
However, there was an unspoken belief in the family that it was a lie. Zhu Xiongwei never knew why they trusted him so much, but they did and so did he.
Still, that didn't mean that he hadn't died. Hearing that he had come back was just too much for him to believe.
He wanted to believe that he had truly come back, but he needed to make sure he wasn't being lied to by someone that just now tried to steal from his deceased uncle's mansion.
