The two soon arrived at the banquet.
In order to entertain a top powerhouse like Ye Wulei, the city lord spent a lot of effort, purchased a lot of precious ingredients at a large price, and asked the top chefs to help cook.
The place he chose was also his city lord’s mansion.
Except for a very few close people, the city lord did not bring anyone with him.
And Ye Wulei only brought Lin Ling with him.
A few people were polite and talking about irrelevant things.
What surprised the city lord and others was that although Ye Wulei had always behaved very plainly on the surface, he was very proficient in all kinds of etiquette and behaved very appropriately.
This made the city lord couldn't help but guess!
"It seems that Ye Wulei is definitely a descendant of a big family!"
"These etiquette and movements are all habits that need to be cultivated from an early age."
"According to previous information, there has never been a family named Ye in the Guwu family."
"It seems that Ye Wulei's identity may even be more mysterious and powerful than I imagined!"
The city lord thought to himself, looking at Ye Wulei with more awe in his eyes!
At such a young age, he achieved something that no one in the entire Guwu family could achieve.
Ye Wulei's family background is very likely to be terrifying!
As for Ye Wulei, although he was calm on the surface, he was already impatient in his heart.
When he was not familiar with the world, he still liked this kind of occasion.
Until something unexpected happened in his family, he was killed and all his relatives were wiped out!
From then on he had no interest in such occasions.
The reason why he was still willing to deal with the city lord was because he wanted to know the truth.
Everyone at the banquet had different thoughts and maintained harmony on the surface, but it ended quickly.
After it was over, the city lord's wife took the initiative to invite Lin Ling to go out for a walk. Ye Wulei and the city lord were the only two people left in the huge room!
"Ancestor, I know you have doubts in your mind. You must not be able to wait any longer."
The city lord said straight to the point.
Ye Wulei stared at him: "What do you know?"
"This is not the place to talk. Please come to the study with me."
The city lord looked around, his expression looking a little solemn and a little wary.
It was obviously his own home, but he seemed to suspect it was not safe.
Seeing his appearance, Ye Wulei knew in his heart that the city lord was definitely not being mysterious!
He really knows something, and this matter cannot be missed, which is why he is so nervous!
Ye Wulei did not hesitate, stood up and walked into his study with the city lord.
The city lord's study is surrounded by bookshelves on three sides and a large desk, which looks very much like an office.
"This study is very safe. I have conducted strict checks and there will definitely not be any eavesdropping equipment!"
The city lord said to Ye Wulei seriously, and then closed the study door directly in front of him and locked several locks.
After closing the window tightly again, the city lord breathed a sigh of relief and sat on his chair.
"You can talk now."
Ye Wulei looked at the city lord and asked.
The city lord nodded: "I know what you are looking for, ancestor!"
"You asked Wei Shan to help because you wanted to find clues about the witchcraft family, right?"
Ye Wulei frowned slightly: "Wei Shan really told you the matter."
He was slightly disappointed at this time.
I thought Wei Shan was someone I could trust, but I didn't expect that he would reveal the news!
The city lord shook his head: "You misunderstood. This was not actually what he told me, but my own guess!"
"I have investigated Wei Shan's case. After his leg was broken, you cured him, and then he suddenly started asking sideways questions about the witchcraft family in the black market and various places."
"So I guessed that this must be your instruction."
"After all, that person Wei Shan has been an ordinary member of the ancient martial arts family for generations. How could he suddenly become interested in a witchcraft family?"
"Only someone with a mysterious identity like my ancestor would look for clues about a witchcraft family!"
After saying that, the city lord looked at Ye Wulei: "Am I right?"
Ye Wulei did not deny it and nodded directly: "You are right."
It seems that Wei Shan did not betray himself, but was not careful enough in his approach.
The city lord had a very solemn look on his face and continued: "The reason why I invite you here is because I want to tell you relevant things."
"Please don't continue the investigation!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Wulei couldn't help but frown.
He originally thought that the city lord came to him because he wanted to reveal relevant clues to him.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually persuaded me to give up!
He stood up suddenly: "This is impossible!"
"If that's all you want to tell me, then I don't think there's any point in talking about it."
"Take the first step!"
With that said, Ye Wulei prepared to open the door and leave.
The city lord looked at his determined look and couldn't help but sigh.
"Wait a moment!"
He stopped Ye Wulei and said, "Ancestor, this matter is very critical. Please patiently listen to what I have to say before making a decision, okay?"
The city lord looked bitter at this time.
He is obviously an elder of the first generation, and he also holds the position of Lord of Cloud City.
It can be said that in the entire ancient martial arts family, there are few people who can live more comfortably than him.
However, there was even a hint of fear in the eyes of the city lord at this time.
Ye Wulei turned around: "I advise you to convince me within three sentences, otherwise I won't waste my time here!"
If the other party still wants to persuade him not to continue the investigation, Ye Wulei will not give him any face and just leave.
After all, this is a major task to avenge his fifth master, and he must complete it!
As for what other people think, it doesn't matter at all.
The city lord looked at Ye Wulei helplessly, sighed and said, "Okay, I will tell you everything I know."
"Two more sentences."
Ye Wulei was unmoved and spoke directly.
He said three words to save himself, and he would not give the city lord any extra chance.
The city lord didn't expect Ye Wulei to be so difficult to deal with, and the expression on his face couldn't help but suffocate. It took him a while to formulate his second sentence: "Wei Shan, has disappeared!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Wulei's face suddenly sank, and a cold light shot out from his eyes!
He was clearly standing there without moving, but the city lord felt an astonishing murderous aura coming from him!
The city lord waved his hands hurriedly: "It has nothing to do with me! I only found out about Wei Shan's disappearance after asking around!"
Ye Wulei returned to the sofa and sat down again: "From now on, I can only tell you useful information!"
Wei Shan really disappeared.
This confirmed Ye Wulei's conjecture and also explained why Wei Shan suddenly lost contact in the past two days.
But how could someone like him disappear so easily?
In terms of status, after he recovered, he was the proud son of a top second-rate family. In the ancient martial arts family, as long as he didn't hit an iron plate like the elder, he could almost walk sideways!
