Chu Liang looked at the young Marquis who suddenly became gentle, and he could only sigh in his heart. Although the effect of the curse is a bit tricky, it is indeed effective.
It's just that the effect of this spell can only last for a period of time. It is estimated that the young prince will come to his senses after tonight, and then he may regret how much he hates himself. But what happened was over, and he couldn't do anything to himself.
In order to cover up her secret, she had no choice but to offend him.
Xue Lingxue looked at the young Marquis who silently took the blame and said nothing. As a musician, she naturally knew that this Tanyuan Guqin could not be fake. When the strings broke, she was extremely heartbroken.
But in the final analysis, the reason why the strings broke was because he set out to test Chu Liang. The result seemed to cause a slight movement in Chu Liang's body, causing this tragedy.
The test just now let her know that Chu Liang's cultivation level was not very high, but there seemed to be some hidden things in his body. Maybe this was the reason why he was able to release the super powerful sword technique.
In the world of immortality, it is not uncommon for one to have some secrets, including Xue Lingxue herself. Chu Liang's secret was accidentally glimpsed by him, which was already a bit presumptuous. If he said it in public again, it would be a bit too much.
Therefore, she could only remain silent and let everyone speculate on the situation, which would eventually lead to a direction that was not conducive to the young Marquis.
Out of the protection of Chu Liang, I could only aggrieve the young marquis.
Just like that, the young Marquis sat down again.
Then I felt so wronged.
After all, Duan Duan gave him a Guqin, but now everyone looks at him like a liar, and they must be unhappy. But he just couldn't get angry, and all his emotions turned into grievances for a while.
Xue Lingxue injured her finger, and she saluted all the guests before stepping back to treat the wound. In fact, an injury of this degree is nothing to a cultivator, and it will heal on its own after a while even if it is not treated.
It's just an excuse to leave.
Everyone also knows that the inner-level disciples of Nanyinfang are here to entertain guests to warm up for the tour. But you can’t expect them to be like ordinary musicians and actors, toasting and chatting around, and chatting with someone with high status when they meet...
After the performance, even if she was not injured, she would sit down for a simple meal and then find an excuse to leave.
On the contrary, it was after Xue Lingxue left that today's banquet seemed to have just begun. During the banquet, the dignitaries of Nanguan City began to wander around and began to drink and mingled with each other.
Chu Liang looked at Lin Bei, who was hanging around in the inner circle of Nanguan City, hanging with a group of powerful people, and reluctantly pulled him out.
"What are you doing?" Lin Bei smiled and said, "Brother, we have some entertainment over there."
"...Don't forget what we are here for." Chu Liang whispered, "When you have the opportunity, you can ask Mr. Xiaoyu about Miss Xiaoyu and her sister."
"Can you just ask?" Lin Bei wondered.
"I can't." Chu Liang shook his head, looked at the back of the young Marquis walking out of the hall, and said, "He might be jealous of me because of the tour just now."
"Didn't he talk to you very calmly just now? I think this young prince has a good temper." Lin Beidao.
"Being good-tempered doesn't mean you're always good-tempered..." Chu Liang wasn't sure about the specific time for the evil spell to take effect, so it was better not to take the risk.
"Okay, let me go and find out." Lin Bei waved his hand and walked out after Xia An.
…
The young Marquis Xia An walked out of the banquet hall, and Master Lu in black followed closely behind him, never leaving.
Outside the hall, a servant from the Hou Mansion was walking in a hurry. When he saw Xia An, he immediately stepped forward and said: "Little Marquis, something happened in the cabin!"
"What's the matter?" Xia An asked.
"The woman you asked Master Lu to send yesterday, she ran away!" the servant said in a low voice.
"Run away?" Young Marquis frowned, "How can a weak woman escape from a tightly guarded cabin?"
"She is not a weak woman, she...she is a monster!" The servant said hurriedly, "She rescued the women in the first cabin. Thanks to our guards, we had enough people to catch them all in time. But the banshee We haven’t caught him yet, but now a group of warriors are chasing him along the Qinnan River.”
"What happened in the cabin must not be leaked. She must be captured and she must be seen alive or dead!" the young Marquis said through gritted teeth.
"Yes..." The servant could only nod.
The young Marquis turned back and said, "I will have another talk with the East Whale Gang later. Master Lu, please go back. I don't trust others to do their work."
"yes."
Master Lu didn't waste any time, and disappeared into the night with a flash of his body.
After he left, the young Marquis continued forward, turned around a courtyard, came to a pavilion among the bushes, and sat down in the pavilion.
After a while, I saw a tall man walking into the courtyard. This big man is none other than Xue Hu from the East Whale Gang who met him the day before yesterday.
He also got involved in the banquet, and it was his intention to use this banquet to connect. The Whale Gang has been under a lot of pressure lately, which has prevented him from arousing suspicion through frequent private meetings with the other party.
"Little Marquis." Xue Hu came and cupped his hands.
The last meeting between the two of them was not pleasant. Because things could not be settled, Xia An walked away, leaving Xue Hu alone. But at least he didn't turn the table over, and he could still remain polite when meeting Xue Hu again.
"Brother Xue, you are fine." The young Marquis seemed to have never experienced the unpleasantness last time. He greeted with a smile and asked, "How has Hall Master Cheng considered what I said last time?"
"I conveyed the words of the young marquis to Hall Master Cheng intact. What he meant was that even if the business continues, after this shipment, we have to suspend it for a month or two and discuss it later. Xu Bashan's My daughter is leading people to investigate our East Whale Gang these days, and the news is very tight, so we must not let her get a handle on it."
"If it is a short-term suspension, we will naturally have no objection." Mr. Xiao Hou nodded and agreed, "Anyway, it will take us a while to prepare the goods. If possible, we will save more."
"Thank you, Mr. Marquis, for your understanding." Xue Hu said, and then asked: "Then when will our next shipment be?"
"On the night of Xue Lingxue's tour." Little Marquis said: "The whole city's attention will be on this villa, and our cruise ship on the river is the most hidden."
"That's very good." Xue Hu nodded, stopped saying any more greetings, and turned around to leave.
Suddenly he heard a faint movement in the woods over there. His eyes sharpened instantly, murderous intent burst out, and he shouted: "Who is it?"
Whoosh——
Almost as soon as his words were heard, his figure rushed past like a cheetah and arrived in an instant.
As the backbone of the East Whale Gang, he is also a martial arts master who has experienced hundreds of battles. When his evil spirit bursts out, the surrounding vegetation kills him.
Then, he saw a drunken young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes under the tree, holding up his pants with a look of horror on his face.
The young man shook his head, sobered up, and shouted to Xue Hu: "What are you doing? Have you never seen anyone relieve themselves?!"
