In less than half an hour, a whistling sound was heard from outside the hall. Three figures entered the hall side by side.
The first person was in a wheelchair. It was the white-haired young man who had reported the mission to Yan Wushi. Next to the young man was a short old man with white hair and beard. However, he was full of energy. His face was ruddy and his eyes were bright. One look and one could tell that he was a forthright person.
Next to the old man was a young woman in a white dress. Her hair was like a waterfall, and her figure was graceful. It was a pity that she was wearing a white veil, so no one could see her face.
"City Lord, you're back so soon this time? What orders do you have for us? "The white-haired young man in the wheelchair glanced at Shen Luo and spoke first.
"Why are there only three of you? Where are Charm and Barbarian?" The young master frowned.
"Barbarian is refining an order from the East Sea Dragon Palace in the Hundred Refinements Hall. He can't come here right now. As for Charm, he's still tidying up the spice manor." The white-haired young man looked helpless.
"It's fine if Barbarian is busy, but Charm is getting bolder and bolder. If he continues to do things his own way and ignore the affairs of the Elders Guild, we'll remove him and find another elder to replace him!" The young master said in a low voice.
"Yes, I'll pass on your message to him later." The white-haired young man rubbed his head as if he was having a headache about Charm.
"Aiyaya, this is such a great injustice! Who said I wasn't here? I've been standing here for a long time. None of you noticed me. "A voice suddenly sounded, startling everyone in the hall, including Shen Luo.
Shen Luo looked in the direction of the voice. A figure in a purple robe had appeared on a windowsill on the left side of the hall.
This person was tall and slender with broad shoulders. He looked like a man, but his face was as white as jade. He had a slender nose and delicate red lips. There was some blush on his cheeks, giving off a feminine scent. It was impossible to tell if he was a man or a woman.
The purple-robed figure was surrounded by a strange light black fog, making the area abnormally dark. It was like a shadow, but it was inconspicuous. It completely blocked the spiritual senses of everyone in the hall.
"Concealing Scent? It seems that you have finally succeeded. "The young master sized up the purple-robed man and raised his eyebrows.
The eyes of the white-haired young man, the short old man, and the veiled woman lit up.
"Concealing Scent?" Shen Luo murmured this name in his heart. His Divine Sense spread out in that direction, but he couldn't sense the existence of the purple-robed man at all. It was as if there was nothing in that area.
He couldn't help but feel shocked. This method of hiding one's tracks was almost comparable to the gray cloak. According to the young teacher and the others, it seemed to be the effect of a kind of spice. There was actually such a magical spice in the world.
"Hehe, of course! These ten or so years of my life have not been spent in vain! "The purple-robed person spoke proudly. There was a hint of Yang in his voice, and it was still impossible to tell if he was male or female.
"Haha, Elder Mei is really good! He actually managed to recreate the long-lost Concealing Incense with just a fragmented recipe. With this incense, it will be much easier for our Tianji City's disciples to hide their tracks when they go out on missions. I'm impressed! "The short elder laughed as he stroked his beard.
"City Lord, I've created this Concealing Scent. Can I be considered to have done something for Tianji City? I wonder if this contribution will allow me to continue to stay in the Elder Council? "The purple-robed man looked at the young master and said with a faint smile.
"Only this time. If you disobey the Elder Council's orders again, no matter how much contribution you make, you will be severely punished!" The young master snorted and said slowly.
The purple-robed man sensed the young master's determination. His heart skipped a beat, but he still laughed dryly. His body flashed and appeared on the fourth seat on the right side of the young master. He sat down leisurely.
The white-haired young man, the short old man, and the veiled woman also sat down on the first, second, and third seats on the right side.
"It's okay that Elder Man Jie didn't have time to come. Someone has already wasted a lot of time. Let's start now. The reason why I have gathered you all here is because of Gui Yan. "The young master straightened his expression and said quickly.
"Gui Yan! Governor, you have a clue? "The white-haired young man's eyes lit up. He then looked at Shen Luo beside him and started to think.
"That's right. Before we talk about this in detail, let me introduce you all to Shen Daoyou. He is from the Spring and Autumn Temple of the Tang of the East. Shen Daoyou, these are the members of the Elder Council of Tianji City. Elder Wu Ming, Elder Fu, Elder Mo Wang, and Elder Mei." The young master raised his hand and made a simple introduction.
"Greetings, seniors." Shen Luo stood up and bowed to the few of them.
The white-haired young man nodded with a smile. The short old man laughed heartily. The veiled woman nodded slightly in response. However, the purple-robed Elder Mei glanced at Shen Luo from the corner of her eyes and did not respond.
"Governor, we have sent people to search for Gui Yan over the years but to no avail. Could it be that this Shen Daoyou knows about Gui Yan?" The short old man, who was Elder Fu, said.
"That's right. This Shen Daoyou crossed the Boundless Sand Sea to come to Tianji City. Along the way, he accidentally fell into the City of Dolls and met Gui Yan." The young master said.
These words were like a huge rock that fell into the calm water, stirring up huge waves!
"Shen Daoyou, is that true?" Elder Fu suddenly looked at Shen Luo.
"That's right. I came to Tianji City to visit. I didn't know that there was a teleportation formation that could bring me here directly. So, I crossed the Boundless Sand Sea with a close friend. We didn't know the way and got lost in the Boundless Sand Sea. We accidentally entered the City of Dolls somewhere underground. After many opportunities, I was lucky enough to escape. However, my friend is still trapped in that city." Shen Luo said with a gloomy expression.
"You entered the City of Dolls and escaped? Shen Daoyou thinks that we are all three-year-old children who can be easily deceived? The City of Dolls is an armor made by Senior Che Yuan himself. Its power is almost invincible. Even if a cultivator in the later stage of True Immortal entered it, he would be trapped inside. How could you escape? "Elder Mei sneered slightly, as if she didn't like Shen Luo.
Elder Fu and the masked woman, Mo Wang, heard this and a trace of doubt appeared in their eyes.
"This is absolutely true. Shen Daoyou didn't lie." The young master said.
Although the young master didn't explain the reason, Elder Fu and Mo Wang no longer doubted him. They looked at Shen Luo with surprise.
Elder Mei frowned and opened her mouth, but she didn't refute.
"I didn't expect Shen Daoyou to be so strong even though his cultivation is only at the peak of the Mahayana Realm. No wonder he could be the champion of this Martial Arts Meet of the Three Realms." The white-haired young man praised.
"Elder Wu Ming, you flatter me. How could I be so capable? It was just a coincidence and with the help of my friend, I was lucky enough to escape from the City of Dolls." Shen Luo shook his head and said.
