Ye Zhen woke up early in the morning and couldn't wait to see Ming Xi.
She was about to go to Mo Di, but as soon as she came out of the space, she saw him sitting in the room waiting for her.
"Lord Mo, do you always enter other people's rooms like this?" Ye Zhen glared at the man sitting on the bed. If she was not in the space, wouldn't she be taken advantage of by him again?
"I knocked on the door." Mo Di said lightly.
Ye Zhen cried, "So what if you knocked on the door? Did I let you in?"
"I thought …" Mo Di raised his eyebrows, thinking of an excuse. "I was worried that you would be taken away."
"Bad excuse!" Ye Zhen snorted angrily.
Mo Di looked at her and asked knowingly, "Where did you go?"
"It's none of your business." Ye Zhen glanced at him. "When are we leaving for Tianhao City?"
"We have to wait a little longer." Mo Di said lightly, "There are some things to deal with."
Ye Zhen frowned at him. "How long will it take?"
"Soon." Mo Di said.
"Well, I'll wait for you." Ye Zhen was a little impatient. She couldn't wait to go to Tianhao City to find Ming Xi now.
Mo Di stood up and looked down at her. "Stay in the room and don't go out."
"Got it." Ye Zhen curled her lips.
Not long after Mo Di left, Ye Zhen sat in the room anxiously. She simply opened the door and wanted to go out for a walk. Maybe she could get some news.
She had only taken a few steps out of the room when a tall, slender figure stopped her.
"Where are you going?" Yin Siyue looked at the woman in front of her coldly. For the first time, she felt jealous and sour in her heart. This woman … was carried back by the city lord yesterday. The city lord never took the initiative to touch a woman. No, not just a woman, but anyone. The city lord has a serious obsession with cleanliness, but he actually carried this woman …
This woman must be very special to the city lord.
Yin Siyue looked at Ye Zhen. She had to admit that this woman was more beautiful than Li Xinxin, which annoyed her.
"Who are you?" Ye Zhen glanced at Yin Siyue. She was a stranger and she didn't want to pay much attention to her.
"I am the third protector of Tianhao City. The city lord has ordered that no one can leave here at will." Yin Siyue said.
Ye Zhen nodded and continued to walk outside.
"Stop!" Yin Siyue shouted, "Don't you understand human language?"
"I understand, but what does it have to do with me?" Ye Zhen asked faintly.
Yin Siyue glared at Ye Zhen. "Don't think that just because you were brought back by the city lord …"
"Third Protector!" A voice called out to Yin Siyue.
Hearing the familiar voice, Ye Zhen looked over in surprise, "Bai Shisan?"
"Chief Protector?"
Ye Zhen looked at Yin Siyue sharply. What did she just call Bai Shisan?
"Madam." Bai Shisan saluted Ye Zhen, "Where are you going? I will take you there."
"What did you call her?" Yin Siyue's voice suddenly became sharp. This person is … is the wife of the City Lord in the human world?
Ye Zhen looked at Bai Shisan calmly. He was Emperor Mo's Chief Protector, which meant that it was Emperor Mo's idea for Bai Shisan to come to her side. Everything about him being her father's subordinate was a lie.
"Madam, where are you going?" Bai Shisan ignored Yin Siyue. He was going to the Yan Region with Ye Zhen, but Elder Ouyang of the Holy Sect felt that since he was not a member of the sect, he was not allowed to board the flying spirit ship. Thus, the City Lord asked him to return to Haotian City.
Just now, the City Lord told him not to go to the Holy Sect to protect his wife in the future, so there was no need for him to continue to hide.
"Not going anywhere, just taking a walk." Ye Zhen said coldly.
"This subordinate will accompany you." Bai Shisan lowered his head.
"Chief Protector, the City Lord has never been married. How can he have a wife? Your lackey is too disgusting." Yin Siyue's face turned pale. She didn't believe that the City Lord would take a woman from the human world seriously.
How could such a low-level mortal be the wife of the City Lord?
"The City Lord asked you to go." Bai Shisan said faintly to Yin Siyue.
Yin Siyue looked at Ye Zhen with disgust. "Such a person is accompanying the wife of the City Lord of Haotian City? In your dreams! "
Ye Zhen didn't even lift her eyelids, as if the object of Yin Siyue's resentment was not her.
"You are too rude." Bai Shisan said with a sullen face.
"I don't know how to flatter like you!" Yin Siyue snorted coldly, turned around, and left proudly.
Bai Shisan said to Ye Zhen, "Madam, the three protectors don't know your identity. Please don't take it to heart."
"No, I'm not your wife." Ye Zhen said coldly, "But … I had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai, and ordered the Chief Protector as a follower."
"Madam, it is this subordinate's honor to serve you." Bai Shisan said in a low voice.
Ye Zhen knew that Bai Shisan must have come to her side because of Emperor Mo's order. Even if she blamed him, it would be meaningless. "My absence should have been discovered. Is there any news from the Holy Sect?"
"When the ship arrived at the Holy Sect, it was discovered that you were not on board. However, the head of the Holy Sect already knows that you are here." Bai Shisan said.
Ye Zhen knew it would be like this! When she was on the ship, it was the elders of each sect who counted the number of people in their sects. In the Holy Sect, it was always the head of the sect who counted the number. She must have been concerned about not letting people know that she was missing.
"I see." Ye Zhen nodded and looked up at Bai Shisan. "You are the Chief Protector of Haotian City. So, you are the one who is going to marry the Ye family."
"…" Bai Shisan had already forgotten about this matter. He whispered, "Madam, the king of Zhou State seems to be going back on his word about the marriage."
Ye Zhen smiled slightly. "So that's how it is. I thought … the person I was going to marry was you."
Bai Shisan almost fell to the ground. "Madam, please don't think so."
"Don't call me madam. I dare not associate with your city lord." Ye Zhen said lightly.
The city lord had already carried her back. Wasn't the meaning obvious?
Unknowingly, Ye Zhen had arrived at the outer court. She looked at Bai Shisan, who walked closely beside her. That Emperor Mo … Did he already know of her existence when she appeared in the Xuantian Continent? That's why he sent Bai Shisan to her side.
What did he mean? Did he want to protect her or monitor her?
"Where is your city lord?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
"Madam, the city lord has something to do. If you have something to say to him, this subordinate will inform you in a moment," Bai Shisan said.
Ye Zhen pointed to the hall in front of her. "He is there. I will go find him myself."
"Madam …" Bai Shisan wanted to stop her, but looking at Ye Zhen's calm face, he felt it was better to pretend that he didn't know.
"Don't call me madam," Ye Zhen said coldly.
