After Yuan Jing sent everyone away from the Yuan family, she found another wild market in the city owner the next day, spent a hundred pieces of spiritual stones, and sent a letter sealed with snake and insect script.
Sword City is more than ten thousand miles away from Xitian City, and ordinary communication talismans cannot fly that far.
She could only use this method to confirm the safety of her father and others.
Fortunately, after waiting for half a day, she received a letter sealed with the same method from the Yeji station.
With her heart mostly at peace, she tore open the letter and saw that the Yuan family had been accepted by Sword City. She no longer had any doubts and headed to the City Lord's Mansion.
Wen Zizhen has been sending people to keep an eye on Yuan Jing for the past two days.
Yuan Jing was angry after learning that her friend had been arrested. The guilt, the anxiety when I sent someone to inquire about the news afterwards, the absent-mindedness in the past two days...
Everything was seen by him, and he completely gave up the idea of tampering with Yuan Zhiping secretly.
Although Yuan Jing valued friendship, how much weight could a female monk whom she had just met have in her heart?
He originally wanted to prepare second-hand, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary.
Yuan Jing seemed to regard the female casual cultivator as her confidant in life and cared about her very much.
Wenzi really remembered that the female cultivator was terrified when she was captured, and looked like she was obedient and begging for mercy, and couldn't help but chuckle.
After all, he is young and does not know people well.
But that's okay, that female cultivator is a soft persimmon and easy to handle. For the sake of her confidant, Yuan Jing will obey his orders obediently. ap.
At this time, the staff "Wen Yi" hurried in and said, "Master, Yuan Jing is here."
Wen Zizhen raised his eyelids slightly and said quietly: "No need to bring her here, just take her to see the female cultivator directly.
You keep an eye on it in secret, and if there is anything unusual, report it immediately. "
"Wen Yi" Kyo Shen said, "I'll go right now, little one."
Yuan Jing followed "Wen Yi" to a side courtyard that was far away from the guest courtyard and was shrouded in a trap.
As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she saw Xiang Shu sitting in the courtyard, slowly sipping tea, as if she was not in a prison, but in a quiet and secluded place.
Yuan Jing froze in front of the courtyard door, guilt welling up in her heart like a tide, and she didn't dare to go in for a while.
After an unknown amount of time, the tea in Xiang Shen's cup was empty.
She looked up at the courtyard door, looked at Yuan Jing whose eyes were as red as a rabbit, and smiled lightly:
"Why don't you come in?"
Yuan Jing pursed her lips slightly and walked to the table silently without saying a word.
Xiang Shu ignored her and took out a new cup that was upside down on the table, wiped it, placed it in front of Yuan Jing, and filled it with tea.
Yuan Jing saw the empty space on her ring finger and looked startled: "Your storage ring..."
"It doesn't matter."
Xiang Shu had a calm expression on his face: "I'm just a casual cultivator, and there's nothing important in the ring. They just take it."
Yuan Jing felt more and more guilty, "Sister Li, I'm sorry for you..."
"What are you sorry for me about?"
Xiang Shen raised his eyes and said in a gentle tone, "I originally wanted to go to the Tianlong Emperor's Tomb to join in the fun, but now that the City Lord's Mansion is with me, it saves me a lot of effort, and it's not a disaster."
Yuan Jing's eyes became even redder, she clutched Xiang Shu's sleeves tightly, gritted her teeth and said:
"Sister Li, you go ahead and scold me! You are like this... I feel extremely uncomfortable."
"Okay, now that it's over, what's the point of saying more shameless words?"
Xiang Shu broke away from Yuan Jing's hand and said, "People's hearts are sinister. Exposing your emotions like this will only give people an opportunity to take advantage of you."
After hearing this, Yuan Jing reacted and looked back suddenly.
When she saw "Wen Yi" standing in front of the courtyard gate, her expression suddenly panicked.
Xiang Shen smiled half-heartedly, "You just realized someone was staring at you now, don't you think it's too late?"
Seeing that she was not panicking, Yuan Jing was a little confused and pointed at Wen Yi: "He..."
"Don't worry about him."
Xiang Shen lowered his eyes and continued to play with the tea set, "The conversation between us will not reach Wen Zizhen's ears."
Yuan Jing was even more confused.
She recognized this Wen Yi and was Wen Zi's true number one confidant. How could he betray his master?
"Jingmei, sometimes what you see with your own eyes may not be true."
With a smile in his eyes, Xiang Shen said in an understatement: "Don't you think that your father was too happy to take people away this time? It seems that he is not worried about your safety at all?"
Yuan Jing looked stunned.
After being reminded by Xiang Shu, she realized that her father had indeed gone too decisively. If it were in the past, he would definitely not let her take risks alone.
She recalled the few times her father told her to listen to Sister Li...
Thinking of this, Yuan Jing suddenly realized, "Sister, you and dad have colluded for a long time? Sister, did you stay here to take care of me on purpose?!"
Xiang Shu nodded with a smile.
"So that's it."
Yuan Jing immediately turned from sadness to joy, and then pouted angrily, "You and dad went too far, you actually hid it from me."
Xiang Shen shook his head, "I won't hide it from you. With your temperament, Wenzi will see through it at a glance."
"Who said that?"
Yuan Jing was about to retort a few words, but when she thought about her emotions being exposed in the past few days, she suddenly muttered guiltily: "When I meet you two more times in the future, I can also act well..."
As she was chanting, she suddenly remembered something and said doubtfully, "No, Sister Li, how do you know that Wenzi will definitely arrest you instead of threatening me with my father?"
Xiang Shen smiled slightly and said, "Of course I didn't know, so I did some tricks."
After saying this, he motioned towards the courtyard gate with his eyes.
Yuan Jing turned around and saw Wen Yi, and immediately understood what was fishy, and her heartbeat quickened slightly.
She had always felt that Sister Li was too easy-going, so easy-going that she couldn't help but worry about her and whether she could protect herself when she ventured into the world of cultivation alone.
But now it seems that the reality is far from what she thought.
Who is Wenzi really?
He is the scheming city lord who rules an area. He is a strong man with perfect acupoints and is only half a step away from becoming a god!
Such an existence that she could only hope to reach in the past has been tricked by Sister Li through some tricks. She is still kept in the dark and has not noticed it at all.
Sister Li is so awesome!
Yuan Jing's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but sit up straight, "Sister Li, what are our next steps?"
"Of course we will do whatever Fumiko arranges."
Xiang Shen laughed, "Do you still want me to have a real and fair fight with Wenzi?"
Yuan Jing looked slightly embarrassed, "Young sister is not thoughtful, don't blame Sister Li."
"It's not your fault."
Xiang Shu put down the tea cup and said, "I'm telling you in advance because I'm afraid you'll be worried and upset these past two days and cause trouble.
There are only a few days until the auction, so you need to restrain your temper to avoid being caught by Wenzi. Otherwise, you will be fine, but my life will be at risk. "
Yuan Jing immediately looked stern and nodded solemnly.
Xiang Shen then asked, "How are you doing with your bloodline magical power?"
"It's been refined."
Speaking of magical powers, Yuan Jing's face became much more relaxed, "That magical power is innately compatible with me. I just took a glance at it and got started with it. Now I have mastered it. It only takes half a breath to cast the spell."
Xiang Shen hummed, "Wenzi will definitely test the effectiveness of your magical powers. Remember to leave some room for yourself."
Yuan Jing was startled, then nodded immediately.
That night, Wen Zizhen called Yuan Jing to test the effect of the magical power.
Yuan Jing listened to Xiang Shen's words, deliberately slowed down the casting speed, extended the time to five breaths, and then "struggled" to find the location of the earth veins.
Even so, Wen Zizhen still looked happy, and hurriedly ordered Wen Yi to send him back to the side courtyard, and left in a hurry.
At the same time, in the guest courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, the soundproofing ban was clearly covered.
Luo Qingyun and others were sitting together, discussing important matters.
"But I found out clearly that the people from the Wuji Immortal Sect haven't arrived yet?
"
The woman who asked this question was wearing a white dress and sitting at the top of the table. She seemed to be the leader of the Piaoxue Hall disciples this time.
This woman is not the Luo Qingyun described in external intelligence. She looks very strange.
Luo Qingyun was sitting on the right side. When she heard the woman's question, she immediately said, "I'm watching this matter personally. There will be no mistake."
The woman in white squinted her eyes and said in a cold voice, "It seems they are still the same and plan to show up on the day of the auction..."
Lin Beilan, who was located at the lower left, frowned slightly when he heard this, "What's the point of this? Why didn't you come and talk to us earlier?"
"People from the Wuji Immortal Sect have always been arrogant."
The woman in white sneered, "After all these years, they still haven't gotten rid of their bad temper of looking at people with their nostrils."
Luo Qingyun frowned, "Jiang Yi and the others are not that kind of people."
The woman in white shook her head, "The tomb of Emperor Tianlong is related to the method of ascension. The Wuji Immortal Sect will at least send an avatar to find out the truth like us.
Your old friends may be as worried about the safety of the Earth God of Dongzhou as you are, but the rules of the Wuji Immortal Sect cannot be exceeded by them. "
Luo Qingyun felt sad after hearing these words.
The upper limit in Dongzhou is too low. The former sect leaders and elders have become disciples who obey orders when they arrive in Xizhou.
For more than sixty years, she has been practicing hard in Piaoxue Palace, and she is now in the middle stage of leaving the body.
Jiang Yi is a reincarnated person, and his cultivation level cannot be lower than hers.
I don’t know if he has now crossed the chasm and achieved divine transformation...
Seeing Luo Qingyun in a daze, the woman in white said in a soft tone, "I know you are worried about Xiang Shu, but it's useless to think too much.
This matter still needs to be confirmed. There will be an auction in two days. If it is true or false, you will know when you ask. "
Luo Qingyun returned her thoughts and nodded slightly to express her understanding.
Next, everyone talked about the information they had obtained from the city and distinguished the true from the false.
An hour later, the discussion came to an end.
Suddenly someone in the audience talked about the Yuan family who suddenly moved away from Xitian City.
"This disciple knows a thing or two about this matter."
Tang Yin, who was sitting at the bottom, suddenly said, "The Yuan family has an only daughter who is beautiful. She was spotted by the city lord and took her as his concubine. She now lives in a side courtyard to the west.
I even went to see it, and was stopped halfway there. From a distance, I could see that the side courtyard was surrounded by a trap. I guess the only daughter of the Yuan family did not enter the mansion voluntarily. "
As soon as these words came out, the woman in white's face suddenly darkened, "Is this happening?"
One of the purposes of Piaoxue Hall is to protect female cultivators from being bullied by male cultivators.
Wenzi really dared to do such a thing under their noses. What's the difference between it and an open provocation?
