"Sir, you are back."
"Um."
Xiyun returned to the Huajian Tavern. It was already late at night, and Hua Niang, the proprietress, was still calculating the day's income behind the counter.
"What have you been doing?"
Hua Niang was a little curious. Logically speaking, it was noon when Xiyun went out. Even if he stayed in the mercenary guild for half a day, he wouldn't have come back so late at night.
"Went to Blue Lion City again." Xiyun walked to the counter and sat down. The landlady poured Xiyun a cup of tea.
"Why did you go to Qingshi City again? People from the City Lord's Mansion over there are looking for you all over the world, and you went to throw yourself into a trap."
"Even a dragnet can't catch me," Xiyun said with a smile, "I'm still confident in my ability to escape."
"Okay, it's getting late. You should go and have a rest."
"Okay~"
Xiyun went upstairs to his room, but was woken up by a loud noise the next morning.
"Wu Mei, what happened down there?"
"Master, it's two boys making trouble."
"what happened?"
"The cause of the matter seems to be the boss's wife." Jiao Niang said.
"Lady boss?"
"It's been ten years since the landlady's man left, and there's been a lot of trouble in front of the widow's door. It seems like there are two more guys who are interested in sex." She said charmingly.
"The boss lady is very clean and has a close relationship with the president of the mercenary guild. Who wouldn't dare to take ideas from her?"
"They seem to be the two young city lords of Red Snake City and Blue Bird City."
"Red Snake, Blue Bird? Two young city lords who are close to the main city? The landlady is quite charming."
Xiyun sat up from the bed and then got out of bed and walked to the bedside. Wu Mei and Jiao Niang changed Xiyun's clothes. Xiyun watched what happened downstairs with interest.
"Boy, don't you know the strength of our Red Snake City?"
"You, Red Snake City, have strength, but I, Bluebird City, don't have strength? Go to the Land of Beasts and find out what the level of Bluebird City is!"
The Land of Beasts, located in the eastern region of Southern Qin, was established by a peerless man who proclaimed himself the Great Emperor of Beasts. Back then, that area was still under the control of demons. The Great Emperor of Beasts single-handedly exterminated the demons and liberated that area. After that, the main city was established in the name of the Great Emperor of All Beasts and the Eighteen War Beasts were seated. United calls itself the land of beasts. Later, the Southern Qin Dynasty rose with the help of the ancient religion, and the land of beasts was also included in the Southern Qin Dynasty.
"The clown."
Xiyun turned around and left the window. Wumei closed the window and followed Xiyun and Jiao Niang downstairs.
"Good morning, boss lady." There are no customers on the first floor of the tavern. Who dares to bring them in the tavern with the two guys outside? The guests living here upstairs are hiding in their rooms and don't dare to come out now. Only Xiyun came down.
"Good morning, sir." The landlady greeted Xiyun feebly. Xiyun sat in front of the counter and looked at the two waves of people tense outside the door.
"The boss lady is so charming."
"Master, please stop teasing me."
"Boss Boss, if I help you solve those two problems, how can you thank me?"
"The slave family will just waive the young master's room fee for one month."
"cut--"
Xiyun secretly thought that the landlady was stingy, but he still walked out of the house.
"Where did you come from..."
Before the young master of Red Snake City could finish speaking, he was blown away by an invisible force.
"Little Lord!"
Xiyun's move was not clearly visible at all. When the young master of Red Snake City hit the ground, the followers he brought reacted and surrounded Xiyun, but they still didn't know what happened. They saw that the time and space were like As if still, the white light flashed, and the people brought by the young master of Red Snake City fell to the ground one by one.
"You, don't come here, I, let me tell you, my father is..." The young master of Bluebird City panicked when he saw Xiyun slowly walking towards him, and quickly withdrew his guards to block him, but it was still the same. , the time and space stopped, and with a flash of white light, the guards brought by the young master of Blue Bird City also fell to the ground, and the young master of Blue Bird City himself flew far away.
"Vulnerable." Xiyun turned around and walked back into the house, sat down at the counter and stared at the landlady without saying a word, which made the landlady feel a little shy.
"Sir, what are you looking at?"
"We agreed to waive my room fee for one month."
"Okay~" The landlady flicked Xiyun's head and walked out of the counter towards the back of the house. Xiyun watched the landlady disappear behind the door and said to Wu Mei, "You two go to Red Snake City, Lan Take a trip to Bird City."
"yes."
After the charming sisters finished speaking, they disappeared into the white light. After the charming sisters left, Xiyun also turned around and disappeared into the white light.
"Master!"
After leaving the tavern, Xiyun came to the Mercenary Guild. As soon as he stepped into the door of the Mercenary Guild, Shia walked towards him.
"I haven't seen you for just one night and you're promoted to foreman?"
"Thank you, sir~" Shia hugged Xiyun's arm and sandwiched Xiyun's arm between her breasts.
"Let's be practical, how are you going to thank me?"
Xiyun raised Shia's chin and said with a malicious look.
"Mr. Gongzi~"
"I'm teasing you." Xiyun touched Xiya's head and smiled, "Is Mrs. Yan here?"
"My lady is taking a bath."
"Bathing again?"
"This time of day is Madam's bath time."
"Then I'll be fine later."
"You are a special guest. Madam has specifically told you that you can go see her at any time no matter what she is doing."
"I do not know the way."
"Master, please come this way."
Shia switched to professional mode in one second and took Xiyun to Mrs. Yan's bathroom.
"Sir, we're here."
"Go and do your work."
"yes."
After Xia left, Xiyun knocked on the bathroom door, and Mrs. Yan's lazy voice came from behind the door.
"Is it Mr. Lu?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Sir, please come in."
The bathroom door opened slowly, and mist filled the bathroom. Xiyun walked into the secret room and then closed the bathroom door.
"Young Master is really good at choosing time." Madam Yan walked out of the water, casually took a white gauze skirt and put it on, "Young Master, you can open your eyes."
"Why don't you say it's Madam, you are so good at choosing the time to take a bath?" Xiyun stared at Madam Yan carefully for a long time, and seemed to be attracted by Madam Yan's figure.
"Master, if you want to see it, can I take off my clothes and show it to you?"
"Don't make trouble," Xiyun looked back and looked into Madam Yan's eyes and continued, "Madam, at this time every day, she becomes cold and has to soak in a special hot spring to relieve herself?"
"Mr., how do you know this?"
"I once fought against the purple-clothed bishop of the Blood Dragon Sect in the North." Xiyun said, "I also wiped out the Beiwu branch of the Blood Dragon Sect."
"Could it be that you are the most talented person in the North, the one from the Star Master's family..."
"The young master of the Star Master family, Star Master Xiyun."
"See Young Master!"
Madam Yan suddenly knelt down in front of Xiyun, which startled Xiyun. Xiyun quickly helped Madam Yan up, and then asked what was going on.
"I see."
Mrs. Yan’s original name was Star Master Yu Yan, and she was the dowry maid of the original owner’s mother, Star Lord Yuqing. The original owner’s mother died in childbirth after giving birth to the original owner. Star Lord Yu Yan stayed with the original owner until the day when the original owner, Star Lord, was taken away. .
That day, the original owner's father sent Star Master Yu Yan away from the Star Lord family. After all, the original owner's mother was no longer there, and he had no way to let anything happen to the dowry maid who was a sister to the original owner's mother.
So, the father of the original owner kicked out the dowry maid, Star Lord Yu Yan, from the Star Lord family. However, it must not be easy for the original owner's mother to leave an imperial-grade fairy seed to the original owner, and her maid who loves her sisters must not be easy either. This can be seen from the fact that she can establish a mercenary guild on her own.
"You are under a curse. Let me help you remove the curse first."
"Thank you, young master."
The curse in Star Lord Yuyan is called the Ice Lotus Heart-piercing Curse. It is also a chronic curse, but it is much simpler to solve than the Blood Dragon Curse.
"Okay," the curse was lifted, and Xiyun wanted to ask about business, "What are your plans now, are you going to stay in Southern Qin or come back to the aristocratic family with me to recognize your ancestors?"
"I am willing to follow the young master!"
"Okay, get up." Xiyun signaled Star Master Yuyan to get up, and then said to her, "Remember, you are not from the Star Master family but from my Lu family. My Lu family is now from the Star Master family. Master, you only need to be responsible to the Lu family and me. We are our own people, so you can just call me 'Master'."
"yes."
"I will stay in Southern Qin for a while. During this period, you should think carefully about how to deal with the mercenary guild in Purple Fox City."
"yes."
"Yes." Xiyun nodded and was about to leave, but just halfway through, he suddenly remembered that he had something important to discuss with Yu Yan.
"I almost forgot the business of coming here," Xiyun said, "Go and help me prepare three thousand earth-level demon pills."
"yes."
The maid of her own family, regardless of the reason, right or wrong, everything is done for Xiyun anyway.
Fifteen days later, Shia found Xiyun in the Huajian Tavern with 3,000 earth-level demon pills. After handing the demon pills to Xiyun, Shia left. It was already late at night when Shia sent the demon pill, and it was still very dangerous for a girl to walk alone at night.
"Just stay at the Huajian Tavern tonight. I'll take care of Yu Yan."
"Yes, Master."
Xiyun caught up with Shia not long after she left. By chance, she happened to meet the gangsters who were robbing her. Xiyun eliminated the gangsters in three strokes and then asked the mastermind behind it. Another foreman with the same level as Shia.
"Why did that woman want to harm you?"
"Originally, there was only one foreman in our guild." Xia said. "Originally, all the etiquette ladies obeyed her arrangements, and all the high-end guests were snatched away by her. Now I am also in the next class, and I have the same power as her. Some High-end customers are more likely to choose me to serve them.”
"So she thinks you have touched her interests, so she wants to get rid of you?" Xiyun said, and Shia nodded to indicate that this was the case.
"Would you like me to help you solve this problem?"
"How dare you trouble the young master?"
"Okay, just leave it to me." Xiyun touched Xia's head and smiled. Xia looked at her young master's eyes and blushed, lowered her head and softly agreed, "Yeah."
"You go and rest first."
"yes."
