The housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion glanced at Qin Yun in surprise and confirmed, "Are you sure you are here to deliver the shadow eggs?"
"But I remember that a team of mercenaries took over this task before."
Qin Yun raised his eyebrows: "What? Do you mean that only those mercenaries can come and hand in tasks, but not others?"
As he spoke, he took out the shadow egg and tossed it up and down in his hand: "I have got the shadow egg back now. If you don't want it, I will leave immediately."
With that said, he turned around and walked out without hesitation.
"Wait!" The housekeeper quickly called him, with a smile on his face: "Young hero, what are you talking about? Of course we need it. No matter who you are, you can come and hand in the task."
He quickly led Qin Yun and others in, and at the same time quickly glanced outside, his eyes full of inquiry.
But he didn't say anything more, and quickly led Qin Yun and others to the young city lord's room.
Doctors had already gotten the news and were waiting here. After Qin Yun sent the shadow eggs, they immediately turned them into medicine and fed them to the young city lord.
Not long after, the Young City Lord spat out a large ball of black sludge-like substance with a loud sound, and then his face gradually turned rosy.
"Okay, okay!" The city lord of Yuanzhou City was overjoyed. He looked at Qin Yun with a particularly kind expression: "I have promised before that as long as anyone can find the shadow egg, there will be a lot of rewards. Now let the housekeeper take you to collect it. Reward me."
The butler held his hands beside him and said, "Please follow me."
Qin Yun did not move, but asked: "I don't know what reward you are talking about, City Lord?"
City Lord of Yuanzhou City: "Fifty thousand Origin Stones, five hundred-year-old herbs, and you can also choose three treasures at will from the private treasury of the City Lord's Mansion."
Qin Yun nodded. The reward was indeed quite generous. No wonder the mercenary group would take risks.
They followed the housekeeper out, and the housekeeper took the three of them to the warehouse: "Everyone, you can choose three treasures in total. Remember not to take more, otherwise, our city lord is not an easy person to talk to."
"But I see that the three of them are warm-hearted people, and the young city lord is also a housekeeper. I have grown up watching them. I am very happy that you can save the young city lord. In this case, I will give you some advice."
"There is a treasure in the warehouse that is very valuable and is stored in a golden box. If possible, you can take this thing away. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed."
With that said, the butler opened the warehouse.
"Thank you for the reminder, butler." Qin Yun cupped his hands and walked in with the one-armed man and Yun Niang.
Yun Niang said in a low voice: "There is something wrong with this housekeeper."
Qin Yun nodded: "I discovered it when we first met. I suspect that this housekeeper may be related to the people in the mercenary group."
"He'd better not have any bad ideas."
Several people wandered around the warehouse. Qin Yun saw the golden box in the butler's mouth and picked it up without hesitation. He opened the box and found the incomplete jade pendant inside.
The jade pendant was obviously broken into two halves. There was only half of the jade pendant in the box, and this half jade pendant had faint traces of mud and blood on it, making it look extremely worn.
Qin Yun put the box away thoughtfully, then randomly selected two treasures and walked out.
The butler came up instantly: "How is it? Have you got the golden box?"
Qin Yun took out the box with a look of confusion on his face: "I took it out, but there is only half a broken jade pendant in the box. What kind of treasure can this be? Are you lying to me?"
The housekeeper gave him a look of disdain: "Don't be ignorant of good people's hearts. If it weren't for the fact that you saved the young city lord, I wouldn't tell you the news!"
"This jade pendant is the key to opening an ancient tomb. If you find the other half of the jade pendant and combine the two jade pendants into one, you can open the ancient tomb in the future. It is said that the ancient tomb has a great background!"
"Okay, okay, now that you have taken all your things, please leave here quickly. I, the housekeeper, have other things to do later and I don't have time to receive you here."
As he said this, he did not give Qin Yun and others a chance to ask. He called a group of guards and escorted Qin Yun and others out directly.
When Qin Yun and others disappeared, the butler's face suddenly darkened.
He returned to his room and took out the other half of the jade pendant somewhere in the room.
If Qin Yun were here, he would be able to find that this jade pendant is very similar to the jade pendant in the golden box. The two jade pendants should just fit into one.
The housekeeper touched the jade pendant in his hand, and a ruthless light flashed in his eyes: "I didn't mean to kill you three. Who let you three get the shadow egg? In this case, you must die!"
He put on black clothes, put on a mask, walked out of the city lord's mansion, and chased in the direction where Qin Yun and others left.
Qin Yun and the one-armed man led the horse to the outside of the city and walked slowly.
He rubbed his fingers on his clothes, and there was some black dust on his hands: "Cheng Jun's two mercenaries have also used this thing for us before. The housekeeper and the man from the mercenary group really had an affair. .”
"I guess it won't be long before the butler comes to kill you."
This was also the reason why the group of them moved so slowly, just to wait for the butler to take the bait.
As soon as Qin Yun finished speaking, a black shadow came rushing from the sky in the distance. When he saw Qin Yun and the others, he took out a big knife and slashed at them without saying a word.
There was an aura rising from him, and he actually reached the realm of turning gods and demons.
"Not good." Yun Niang's face changed: "You two run, I'll stop him here first!"
Qin Yun shook his head: "It's just the early stage of transforming into a god or a demon. I haven't fought against anyone of this level yet. Now is the time to give it a try!"
The spear transformed from the fire dragon was revealed in his hand, and a stream of gun air swept out from the spear, killing the housekeeper.
Yun Niang and the one-armed man's eyes fell on the spear, and their pupils suddenly shrank: "How is it possible, a true soul of the king's rank?"
"Isn't Master Qin Yun's previous Fire Linjiao a seventh-grade true soul? Maybe I remembered it wrong?"
The butler's expression also changed drastically, and he exclaimed: "Impossible, how can you have a king-grade true soul? Who are you?"
Qin Yun snorted: "There is no need for a dead person to know so much!"
The gun gas spurted out, making the butler's hair stand on end as he felt the threat of death.
