For the next seven days, Xiao Yifeng stayed behind closed doors, bathed and changed clothes, burned incense and meditated, practicing the so-called fast.
The same goes for Liu Hanyan, who stays behind closed doors, doesn't see anyone, and declares seclusion to the outside world.
Although Lin Tianru wanted to find Liu Hanyan, he was turned away and could only leave in anger.
Seven days later, Xiao Yifeng finished fasting and when he went out, the steward was already waiting at the door.
"Sir, the city lord is waiting for you at Wanshu Tower. Please come with me," the steward said with a smile.
Xiao Yifeng nodded and said, "It's up to you to take care of things."
The two walked towards Wanbao Tower. Xiao Yifeng asked about Liu Hanyan's situation on the way. He was slightly relieved when he learned that Liu Hanyan had been staying behind closed doors for the past few days.
As a result, the two of them didn't go far when Liu Hanyan walked out from a distance. Her face was covered with a veil, her eyes were calm, and she could not see any emotion or anger.
"Let's go, I'll go with you." Liu Hanyan said to him calmly.
The steward didn't know that his city lord had special care for Liu Hanyan, so he didn't stop him.
Xiao Yifeng, who had just done something bad, nodded guiltily and followed the steward alongside Liu Hanyan.
Xiao Yifeng knew that Liu Hanyan was worried about him going alone, so he followed him specially. It seemed that Liu Hanyan was not particularly angry.
He secretly looked at Liu Hanyan's expression, but saw that she still looked calm and indifferent. When she saw him, she glanced at him indifferently.
The two of them followed the steward all the way to the so-called Wanbao Building. Xiao Yifeng kept looking at the majestic buildings on both sides and asked the steward some questions.
When they arrived at Wanshu Tower, the steward smiled and said: "The city lord is waiting for the two distinguished guests in the building. The younger one will not go in with the young master."
Xiao Yifeng nodded, the steward stepped back, and he and Liu Hanyan walked in together.
The building is extremely wide, like a tower, surrounded by bookshelves, with hollow spaces between each floor. From here you can go straight to the top floor.
And the green lanterns were lit, illuminating the entire Wanshu Tower, making it look solemn and beautiful.
There are formations flowing one by one in the building, separating each floor. Without permission, I am afraid it will be difficult to move forward.
Lin Tianru obviously didn't expect Liu Hanyan to come with him. At this moment, he was standing on the top floor.
When he saw Liu Hanyan coming, he hurriedly flew down on a disk, and when the formation encountered the disk, he got out of the way.
Xiao Yifeng saluted and said, "I have met City Lord Lin."
Lin Tianru nodded, and then said to Liu Hanyan with a bright smile: "Why did Fairy Guanghan come here too?"
"Since I have nothing to do, I came with you to have a look. I hope I didn't disturb the city lord." Liu Hanyan said politely.
"Fairy, you're welcome. This Fairy from Beidi City can go wherever he wants. Junior Nephew Xiao, let's go, I will take you to study the Heavenly Book of Heaven." Lin Tianru said with a smile.
"Both of you, please!" Lin Tianru motioned for the two of them to stand on the disc, and Xiao Yifeng and the other two stood on the disc.
At this moment, Lin Tianru regained his composure and elegance, completely unable to see the humble and cautious appearance he had three days ago.
As he waved his hand, runes suddenly lit up on the ground floor of Wanshu Tower, and then the ground began to disappear, revealing a dozen or so floors of bookstores that seemed to be mirror images of the underground and above.
Green lanterns are also lit in the book pavilion, illuminating the entire Wanshu Tower.
Lin Tianru controlled the disk under his feet to fly underground. After the three people flew in, the formation re-closed.
Xiao Yifeng and Liu Hanyan looked at the scene around them and saw books hidden inside, all of high quality.
"This is my Wan Shu Lou's treasure for many years. Fairies can browse through it if they are interested." Lin Tianru said with a smile.
Liu Hanyan shook her head. She didn't want to have anything to do with Lin Tianru anymore.
She asked: "City Master Lin, I wonder if the person I asked you to investigate has any results?"
Lin Tianru shook his head and said: "I am disappointed, Fairy. In the past seven days, I have asked the elders in the city to pay attention to the news, but there is no news about Yang Qizhi and the woman. Fairy, don't worry, I will let the city continue to search."
Liu Hanyan was a little disappointed, but she still said: "Thank you, City Lord, and please take your time."
"It's just a trivial matter, nothing worth mentioning." Lin Tianru said with a smile.
The three of them flew into the bottom floor of Wanshu Building. There were no bookshelves on this floor, only eight stone doors around it.
There were eight monks sitting in front of the stone gate, men, women and children. When they saw Lin Tianru coming, they saluted and said, "I have met the city lord."
"These are the elders who guard the collection of books in my Wanshu Tower." Lin Tianru introduced.
Xiao Yifeng frowned. The eight Dongxu elders did nothing but look after the books? Is Beidi City so arrogant?
In particular, one of the elders, Xiao Yifeng, also knew Sha Tongtian, the ghost ghost from the underworld whom he had dealt with in his previous life.
He made a vague gesture to Liu Hanyan, indicating that something was wrong.
"Elders, please open the formation. This little friend wants to understand the Heavenly Book of Heaven." Lin Tianru said with a smile.
One of the elders frowned and said, "Now? City Lord?"
"Yes!" Lin Tianru nodded.
The elders looked at each other and entered the spells one after another. Runes began to light up in the building, and a stream of spiritual power circulated rapidly.
Liu Hanyan's alarm went up in her heart, and she suddenly grabbed Xiao Yifeng and flew upwards, extremely quickly.
However, they were still a step too late. A huge formation with flowing runes had been deployed, and runes trapped Liu Hanyan and Xiao Yifeng in the formation.
"City Lord Lin, what do you mean?" Xiao Yifeng said coldly.
Liu Hanyan's hand flashed with light, and Xue Ji appeared in her hand, looking at Lin Tianru coldly.
Seeing that she was still calm and composed, Lin Tianru said in a deep voice: "Fairy, don't you want to ask me anything?"
"Not interested." Liu Hanyan said coldly.
Her attitude deeply hurt Lin Tianru, and he said angrily: "Have you really never seen me in your eyes?"
"No." Liu Hanyan said calmly as before.
Xiao Yifeng felt a little sorry for Lin Tianru. It was so miserable that he couldn't help laughing.
"Boy, why are you laughing!" Lin Tianru said angrily.
Xiao Yifeng shook his head and said: "Of course I'm laughing at your wishful thinking. City Lord Lin has worked so hard to achieve this goal. It seems that he plans to leave us two here today?"
Lin Tianru's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he said coldly: "The fairy will stay, and as for you, I will give you a good time."
Xiao Yifeng laughed mockingly: "Then don't I have to thank you? Isn't City Master Lin afraid of asking Tianzong for revenge when he acts like this?"
"The whereabouts of you two are kept secret. I'm afraid Wentianzong doesn't know where you have gone, right? If I don't admit it then, what can Wentianzong do to me?"
"Besides, what if there is a way to find me? In the worst case, I will abandon Beidi City and take the fairy with me to escape the world." Lin Tianru said happily without fear.
Xiao Yifeng smiled and said: "The city lord really dares to do anything for Uncle Guanghan. He just pitied these eight elders and wants to silence them afterwards, right?"
The expressions of the eight elders did not change when they heard this. It seemed that Lin Tianru had already greeted them, and Xiao Yifeng's attempts to sow discord were completely useless.
