Looking at the person who spoke, Ye Yun looked calm.
He had seen this person before, he was the personal bodyguard of Zhongzhou City Lord Sima Yu.
However, as soon as he came out of the training room, Sima Yu invited him to the City Lord's Mansion. This was too much of a coincidence.
From the look of him, he seemed to have been waiting here for him to come out.
Did something happen?
"How long have you been waiting here?"
Seeing the tiredness on the guard's face, Ye Yun couldn't help but ask.
"Replying to Master Ye, I have been waiting here since yesterday for Master Ye to come out of seclusion."
Sima Yu's guard said respectfully to Ye Yun, not showing any contempt for Ye Yun because of his young age.
After all, Ye Yun is no longer the young man he was before. His current reputation is known to everyone in Zhongzhou City.
Even without Sima Yu's orders, the guards did not dare to show any slight to Ye Yun.
Hearing this, a coldness flashed in Ye Yun's eyes.
Sima Yu had sent someone to wait for him here early, so something big might have happened.
Otherwise, Sima Yu, who is the lord of Zhongzhou City, would not do this.
Could it be that before, Sima Yu promised to help him cover up the destruction of the Xiao family, and something happened?
After thinking for a moment, Ye Yun suddenly thought of a possibility.
"In that case, then you should lead the way."
Ye Yun said directly to the guard. After speaking, he walked directly onto the carriage that had been prepared in advance.
After Ye Yun got on the carriage, the guard sat directly in the driver's seat and drove the carriage towards the city lord's palace.
Not long after the carriage left, a middle-aged man with a gloomy expression walked out of a teahouse next to Wuhun Hall.
This person is the Lin family guard who Lin Zhengbei placed here to monitor Ye Yun's movements.
He looked at the carriage going away, and after watching it for a while, he hurried towards the Lin family.
After Ye Yun came out of seclusion, he was directly invited to the city lord's mansion by Sima Yu. He had to tell the family leader Lin Zhengbei immediately.
After he left, another member of the Lin family followed the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion.
…
After Ye Yun arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, he went directly to Sima Yu's study under the leadership of the guard.
At this time, in the study, Sima Yu was sitting there anxiously. As soon as he saw Ye Yun coming in, he quickly stood up and greeted him.
"Brother Ye Yun, you are finally out of seclusion."
Seeing Ye Yun at this time, Sima Yu's expression was as if he was seeing a relative.
Sima Yu's performance couldn't help but confirm Ye Yun's suspicion.
"The divine light has leaked out. It seems that Brother Ye Yun has improved his cultivation in the past few days."
After hearing Sima Yu's praise, Ye Yun's expression did not change, but he found a chair and sat down on his own.
"City Lord Sima, there is no need to say these polite words between us."
"You are so anxious to find me. Is there something wrong with the Xiao family?"
After sitting down, Ye Yun looked at Sima Yu and asked directly.
Hearing this, Sima Yu couldn't help but reveal a wry smile on his face. He turned around and asked the maids waiting on the side to get out. Then after they all left, he closed the door of the study directly.
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you, brother Ye!"
With a wry smile, Sima Yu sat next to Ye Yun, looked at Ye Yun and said:
"That's true. I don't know who leaked the news. The fact that you wiped out the entire Xiao family has spread to the royal city and His Majesty has known about it."
"His Majesty has ordered a thorough investigation into this matter. This time we two are in great danger!"
After listening to Sima Yu's words, Ye Yun's expression did not waver at all.
Ye Yun was not surprised that Sima Yu could get this news. After all, to be able to become the lord of Zhongzhou City, Sima Yu must have some connections in the royal city.
"We are still sitting here safe and sound, and obviously they can't confirm whether I did it or not."
Unlike Sima Yu's panic, Ye Yun seemed very calm at this time.
"If this is the case, then someone will definitely come to Zhongzhou to investigate. I wonder if City Lord Sima has any information about the people who came to investigate?"
Looking at Sima Yu, Ye Yun asked calmly.
Sima Yu shook his head: "I only know that His Majesty ordered a thorough investigation of this matter, but I really don't know who specifically sent to investigate."
"But today there is a guest from the Lin family. Judging from his appearance, he must have come from the Royal City."
After listening to Sima Yu's words, a chill flashed through Ye Yun's eyes.
"Lin?"
Ye Yun didn't expect that before he went to trouble the Lin family, they would just jump out of the house so impatiently.
There is no need to think too much about the fact that he destroyed the Xiao family. The news must have been leaked by the Lin family.
The Lin family really didn't know how to live or die. After the death of a head of the family and a direct descendant of the family.
They didn't dare to take the initiative to face themselves, but they secretly used tricks behind their backs.
Thinking in his heart, Ye Yun has already put the Lin family on the must-kill list. This kind of family that does not care about life and death will be a disaster in the future.
"Brother Ye Yun, this matter must have something to do with the Lin family."
"I have issued a silence order to all the major families in Zhongzhou City."
"But this Lin family is different. They are a branch of the Lin family in Wangcheng. They will not abide by my words. After all, the head of the Lin family in Wangcheng is now the current national advisor of the Xia Kingdom."
Ye Yun didn't say anything, so what if the Imperial Master was offended by him, even the gods and demons would only die.
"I asked brother Ye Yun to come here today because I want to discuss with you how to handle this matter."
Looking at Ye Yun, Sima Yu said with a very solemn expression: "I have been the city lord for so many years, and I still have a lot of prestige."
"The other families in Zhongzhou will definitely not say anything, and as the lord of Zhongzhou City, they can't do anything to me without solid evidence."
"Brother Ye Yun, you may be in some trouble."
Sima Yu's words are correct or not. As the lord of Zhongzhou City, he is like a feudal official in the Xia Kingdom.
Normally, if someone comes to investigate, they won't find Sima Yu's head until they get the key evidence. The opponent's breakthrough point should be Ye Yun.
But with the Lin family being such a troublemaker, Sima Yu's current situation is not much different from his own.
Thinking of this, Ye Yun stood up directly.
"Don't worry, City Lord, I have my own solution for this matter."
Looking at Sima Yu, Ye Yun's tone was full of strong confidence.
Hearing this, Sima Yu couldn't help but look at Ye Yun in surprise. In this situation, he really couldn't think of what Ye Yun would do.
"Brother Ye Yun, do you have a solution to this problem?"
"I wonder if I can tell you."
Facing Sima Yu's question, Ye Yun shook his head.
"City Lord Sima, there is no need to ask any more questions. I will naturally have a clever plan. You will know it when the time comes."
Ye Yun said mysteriously.
