Dark North Kingdom, Dingdu City.
Yan Xiaoliu did not know how long he had been unconscious. When he woke up, he found himself lying in a bright house. Outside was a forest. He hurriedly sat up and ran to the door to take a look. There were birds and flowers everywhere. There was a gentle breeze, and there was no heat at all.
Where is this?
Yan Xiaoliu looked around and did not find the man who brought him here. He did not know who the man was and why he was captured here.
"How do I leave?" Yan Xiaoliu frowned. He could not see a way out of this small courtyard.
He looked around.
What Yan Xiaoliu did not know was that his every move was seen by others.
"Emperor, why did you bring him here?" Ye Wei stood behind Fan Luo. She was injured by Ming Xi and looked very pale. She looked at the illusion that Fan Luo had created and saw Yan Xiaoliu looking for a way out.
She was very puzzled. Why did Emperor Fan Luo bring this youth here? She remembered that this youth was just a mortal.
"He is very special." Fan Luo's pair of slender eyes kept looking at Yan Xiaoliu in the illusion.
"What's special?" Ye Wei's tone was very disapproving. He was just a mortal. No matter how powerful he was, there was nothing to be afraid of. Fan Luo actually looked at such a weak mortal.
Fan Luo said lightly, "He killed the gorilla."
"What?" Ye Wei was stunned for a moment and looked at Yan Xiaoliu in disbelief. No matter how powerful a mortal was, how could he kill a demon beast. "How is this possible!"
"I saw it with my own eyes." Fan Luo said that Yan Xiaoliu killing the gorilla did not arouse much interest in him, but he ate the gorilla's golden core and did not suffer from the backlash of power. Instead, the power of the golden core became his own. This made him very interested.
It was not that there were no mortals who could devour golden cores, but it took a long time to refine. It was the first time he had seen someone like Yan Xiaoliu swallow the golden core so easily.
Ye Wei frowned. She knew this youth. He seemed to be called Yan Xing. Ye Zhen had always called him Yan Xiaoliu. He was the son of the former Wulin leader.
"Emperor, why did you keep him here?" Ye Wei asked in a low voice.
"Let him cultivate." Fan Luo said indifferently. He turned around and glanced at Ye Wei. "Did you see Shi Tian at Woo Sheng's place?"
Ye Wei asked, "Are you talking about the great demonic beast Soaring Serpent? I've never seen him before … Wolong Sheng doesn't seem to know where Shi Tian is. "
Fan Luo's gaze turned cold. The Ancient Blood Demons had been resurrected one after another, so where exactly was the Big Teng Serpent hiding? Did he not want to summon the demonic beasts of the world to help him take back what he had lost?
"Emperor, Yan Xing seems to be leaving," Ye Wei said, pointing at Yan Xiaoliu in the illusion.
Fan Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
…
…
Wuling.
The next day, Lei Bingfu finally felt alive. The pain in her body was much better, and her walking posture was normal.
However, when she saw Murong Ke, she was stunned for a moment.
This was the first time she had seen Murong Ke dressed like this. Usually, she would only see him dressed in brocade and satin. Today, he was dressed simply as a Jianghu vagabond, which was a little different from usual.
He was less cold and aloof, but more confident and chivalrous.
"Today, we are going to the Flying Feather Villa. You don't have to dress like a manservant anymore. Go and change into your female clothes," Murong Ke said to Lei Bingfu.
Lei Bingfu smiled and asked, "Then, should I be your maid or your confidante?"
Murong Ke glanced at her, "Since you like to serve people so much, I will make you a palace maid when we return to the palace."
"Master, you must be joking. I was born to be served." Lei Bingfu said with a smile. She had been served for two lifetimes, so it was not easy for her to be a palace maid to serve others.
Murong Ke snorted coldly.
Lei Bingfu turned around and went back to her room to change her clothes. She put on some light makeup, and a delicate and beautiful young woman appeared in the mirror. Different from when she was in the palace, she was dressed like a pretty daughter from a humble family. She was less dignified and more cute.
When Murong Ke saw her, he was slightly stunned, but he quickly recovered his cold expression.
"Master, will I embarrass you by standing next to you like this?" Seeing Murong Ke's cold face, Lei Bingfu was in a good mood and teased him.
"What did you say?" Murong Ke raised his eyebrows and looked at her. She was getting bolder and bolder.
Lei Bingfu covered her mouth and pretended to be scared. She said in a low voice, "I was wrong. Please forgive me, Master."
Murong Ke stared at her. This woman was different today. It was as if she had taken off the mask on her face. She looked more real.
"Get on the carriage," Murong Ke said lightly and asked Lei Bingfu to get on the carriage.
Lei Bingfu smiled, "Yes."
The Flying Feather Villa was located at the east of the Wu Ling County. It was built against the mountain. To enter the villa, they had to pass by a small lake. When they arrived at the lake, someone was already waiting for them.
"Master Mu." The person who came to pick them up bowed to him, "Please."
Murong Ke reached out his hand to Lei Bingfu, indicating that he wanted to hold her hand.
Lei Bingfu was stunned. Was she going to pretend to be in love?
When she was about to say that she could get on the boat by herself, she saw the warning in Murong Ke's eyes.
Well, she was good at this kind of thing anyway.
"Thank you, Master." Lei Bingfu said in a soft voice.
The man who came to pick up Murong Ke couldn't help but look at her.
After they passed by the lake, they saw the gate of the Flying Feather Villa. A tall and straight middle-aged man was standing in front of the gate, looking at them.
"Master Yu." Murong Ke smiled, cupped his fists and bowed to him.
"Master Mu, I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time. I have heard about you for so many years." Yu Yunsheng returned Murong Ke's bow with a smile and invited them into the villa.
Lei Bingfu was secretly surprised. She had heard that Murong Ke was the Master of Qian Luosha. But judging from Master Yu's attitude, it seemed that he didn't know Murong Ke's real identity. Could it be that he had another identity in the Jianghu other than the Master of Qian Luosha?
"Master Yu, you are too kind. Even though I live in seclusion, I often hear about your heroic deeds. It is a blessing to have Master Yu in the Jianghu." Murong Ke's smile was gentle. He was full of heroic spirit.
Lei Bingfu almost thought that the man beside her was a different person. So Murong Ke had this side to him.
Yu Yunsheng's eyes were full of smiles. It was obvious that he was very happy with Murong Ke's words. "What I have done are insignificant things. The Jianghu has been greatly weakened by the incident a few years ago. It has only gotten better in the past two years."
What happened a few years ago was the matter of Qiu Hen.
However, people in the Jianghu rarely mentioned Qiu Hui. The name had almost become a taboo.
Murong Ke's expression was slightly solemn. "I have heard about that incident. Unfortunately, I was cultivating in seclusion at that time and couldn't contribute to the Jianghu. However, I heard that … something happened two years ago."
Yu Yunsheng's expression changed.
