Soon Xu Yu led a group of people to the imperial envoy's residence. Pei You and Yu Linlang stopped them: "What are you doing, Mr. Xu?"
The other party has a ferocious look on his face, and with so many subordinates, it's obvious at first glance that he's coming with bad intentions.
Xu Yu said calmly: "Where is Mr. Zu?"
Pei You frowned, a little dissatisfied with the other party's domineering appearance, but now that the other party held the imperial edict and was considered the de facto leader in Yunzhong County, he didn't want to offend him, so he had to answer: "Master Zu was injured a few days ago. I’m in seclusion to recuperate.”
"Take me to meet him." Xu Yu said and walked inside.
Pei You suddenly became anxious: "Hey, Mr. Xu, Mr. Zu was seriously injured and is recuperating in seclusion. I told him not to disturb him before, otherwise he will easily go crazy."
"Retreat in seclusion to recuperate?" Xu Yu sneered. "He came to attend a meeting a few days ago. He looked very lively. It's hard to tell that he needs to be nourished."
Pei You explained: "Master Zu was so angry that he was injured in the battle with Jian Taiding, so he had to stay in seclusion again to recuperate."
This reason is reasonable, but of course Xu Yu won't believe it: "Oh, it seems that I am also responsible for causing Mr. Dezu's injury to relapse, and I should go see him."
Pei You was not stupid. Although he didn't know the inside story, he felt that he was coming with bad intentions. He was worried that it would disturb Zu An's recovery, so he hurriedly tried to find a way to stop it.
It's a pity that the other party has a higher official position than him, a higher cultivation level than him, and the support of the imperial decree, so he can't stop him even if he wants to.
After retreating all the way outside Zu An's room, Pei You finally got angry and stopped in front of the room, saying, "Master Xu is also a practitioner. When we understand the consequences of being disturbed during retreat, we hope you won't let us." Difficult to do.”
Xu Yu said with a smile: "Of course I know it, and I don't want anyone to be disturbed by it, but something happened in the cell just now. Yu Yanluo was rescued by the thieves, and now there is no clue. Mr. Su Wenzu is like a god in solving cases. , so I came here specifically to ask for advice.”
"Mrs. Yu was rescued?" Pei You was extremely surprised. He had just seen the commotion over there, with bells ringing and fireworks set off. He thought it was an attack there, but he didn't expect that he was actually rescued. gone.
You must know that the defense forces there are like a dragnet. Who has the ability to rescue people?
Thinking of Mrs. Yu, a beautiful woman who could conquer the country, and learn that she had escaped, he didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed for a moment.
At this time Xu Yu said: "You can understand that you are afraid of disturbing Mr. Zu. Let's do this. I will say a few words to him through the door, ask his opinion and then leave, okay?"
"This..." Pei You hesitated for a moment. He didn't know that Zu An went to rescue Yu Yanluo and that the other party was here to catch the stolen goods. Seeing that what he said was reasonable and reasonable, he couldn't refuse for a while.
Seeing that his attitude was no longer so determined, Xu Yu showed a sneer on his face, and was about to shout outside the door.
At this time, a voice came from the side: "What are you doing here, Mr. Xu?"
While talking, Sang Hong also came over with a group of people.
Xu Yu was stunned, so he repeated what he had just said.
Sang Hong was naturally not that easy to deceive, and replied with a smile: "It's a bad luck for Mr. Xu to come. I just had a chat with Mr. Zu not long ago. He has to enter samadhi because his injury has worsened, so I'm afraid he can't hear the sound outside at this time. . If you go in and disturb him, it will easily make him go crazy."
"Did you just chat with Mr. Zu?" Xu Yu's voice suddenly rose, his face full of doubts.
"Yes, didn't something happen to Mrs. Gangyu? My first reaction was the same as Mr. Xu's. I came back to ask Mr. Zu for his opinion." Sang Hong seemed to be recalling, "But before I even asked, he asked When his injuries worsened and he needed to enter meditation for cultivation, he also entrusted me not to let anyone disturb him."
"I was worried that he would be distracted, so I didn't tell him about Mrs. Jade being rescued."
Xu Yu's face darkened: "Master Sang, do you know what you mean by these words?"
Sang Hong was stunned: "What do you mean, Mr. Xu? Do you still doubt that I am telling lies?"
Xu Yu looked at him for a while, and then a smile appeared on his serious face: "Haha, Mr. Sang is joking. How can you, a majestic imperial minister, blatantly tell lies and protect other people? If something happens in the future, They will also be implicated.”

Sang Hong remained motionless: "Why can't I understand what Mr. Xu said?"
Even Pei You felt something was wrong now, and secretly pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, while winking at those Yu Linlang to let them be on guard.
As members of the imperial mission, they were of course on Sang Hong's side.
Xu Yu also noticed their movements and said with a smile: "It's nothing. It's a pity that I can't communicate with Mr. Zu about the case. Then I will go hunt down the criminal now."
Sang Hongpi said with a smile: "When I saw Mr. Xu coming here, I thought I had caught the culprit, but it turns out I haven't yet."
The two of them were irritated with each other and secretly cursed the old fox.
Xu Yu left the mission hotel, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and then ordered his subordinates: "Send someone to keep an eye on the area, record everyone who comes in and out, pay special attention to Zu An, and report any findings as soon as possible. .”
"Yes!" The confidants around him naturally knew what he meant and quickly arranged it.
Xu Yu then asked: "Has Master Yan left Yunzhong City?"
"No, she is still on the list of repairs in a deserted Taoist temple on the outskirts of the city." One of his subordinates replied.
"Okay, follow me and ask Master Yan to take action." Xu Yu said in a deep voice.
"Xiao Daxia has already chased him. Are you worried that Xiao Daxia is not strong enough to catch him?" asked a confidant next to him.
Xu Yu looked worried: "From the descriptions of those in the house, the thief's cultivation is unfathomable. In addition, there is Yu Yanluo and a possible master of the Snake Clan. Xiao Yao may not be able to deal with him alone."
While he was talking, he got on his horse and rushed towards the Taoist temple where Yan Xuehen was.
On the other hand, Zu An and Yu Yanluo used the courtyard walls and other obstacles in the city to quickly get rid of the pursuers.
Just as he was about to take Yu Yanluo to the Duke's Mansion to hide, he felt an extremely sharp sword energy coming from a distance in this direction.
"Xiao Yao!" Zu An had fought with him before, and his characteristics were so distinctive that he could be easily recognized.
"Let's leave the city first, so as not to affect the identity of 'Jian Yanyou'." Yu Yanluo suggested. With the speed at which Xiao Yao was chasing them, they might have arrived just as they entered the Duke's Mansion.
Ordinary pursuers can use various buildings to get rid of them, but the Grandmaster's Qi lock can't be too precise even though they are so far away, but the general direction will not be wrong.
If the fact that Jian Yanyou returns, which the two of them have worked so hard to establish, is exposed, the consequences will be too serious.
Zu An also knew how powerful it was, and without any hesitation, he took Jade Yanluo and ran in the other direction.
Feeling the buildings and trees whizzing by around her, Yu Yanluo was filled with emotion. His speed was really too fast, no less than that of a grandmaster. But with his cultivation level, he shouldn't be so fast at all.
After a while, she slowly figured out the clue. Zu An's speed was not always so fast. Many times, there was a teleportation effect. Other times, it was slightly slower, but the next teleportation soon came.
Having seen him take action several times before, I was naturally aware of the weirdness of his movements, and thought that even if I tried my best, my speed would still be far inferior to his.
But even so, the two of them could not completely get rid of Xiao Yao. No matter how they changed directions, the other party was always hanging behind.
Yu Yanluo frowned: "Is this drunkard desperate for his life? If we join forces and fight for life and death, he won't survive at all."
She had many concerns before taking action and could not expose her natural abilities, but she was really forced to do so. With the Eyes of Medusa fully opened, Xiao Yao might not be able to deal with her alone, not to mention that Zu An was beside her to help. .
After all, she is the head of the family, and she also has the blood of Medusa. She was already very angry after being imprisoned these days, and now she is being chased to death.
Zu An shook his head: "Xiao Yao's character is worthy of respect. I don't want to do anything with him unless I have to. What's more, he is a direct disciple of the Academy's Jijiu. What's the point? Offending the academy and Jijiu is nothing. Be wise. Besides, his swordsmanship is very good, and we won't be able to subdue him for a while. When the big forces in the city arrive, we will be in trouble."
In addition to Xiao Yao's relationship with Manman's mother and his secret protection of Manman all these years, it is impossible for him to be really ruthless.
"Then what should we do now?" Yu Yanluo also calmed down.
Zu An's peripheral vision suddenly glanced at a brightly lit building in the distance - Jasper Square.
His heart moved: "Yes!"
Immediately, several figures separated at the same time and left in different directions. He jumped down from the eaves, took out two pieces of clothes and put them on the two of them, and then quietly slipped into Biyufang.
