When Sima Youyue came out, everyone understood what Sima Youyue meant. Most of them wanted to try it with her.
There were also two people who didn't understand, but they still wanted to follow them. For example, Mu Lian Xin's goal was to defeat Little Seven.
"Yue Yue, someone is looking for you." Little Seven heard the door open and shouted from downstairs.
Someone was looking for him? Who would look for her here?
She went downstairs and saw two unfamiliar people standing in the lobby.
"This must be Young Master Si Yue?" One of the men cupped his hands towards Sima Youyue and said, "I am the steward of the City Lord's Residence. My City Lord would like to invite you and this young lady over as guests. "
"The City Lord invited us?" Sima Youyue was surprised.
"Yes." That steward said, "City Lord heard that there are two experts from Blood Fiend City and would like to invite you to the City Lord's residence as guests."
"Just us?"
"Yes." The steward replied, "The City Lord said that he's just going to sit for a while. It won't affect your business tonight."
It seemed like the City Lord understood everything clearly!
This was someone else's territory, so he had to go.
"That's good." Sima Youyue smiled and said, "Little Seven, follow me to the City Lord's residence. Shi Chen, if we don't return by the time, you guys can go directly to the Blood Arena. As for these people, do as I instructed. "
"We understand, Boss." Shi Chen nodded.
"Young Master Si Yue, please."
"Sir Butler, please."
There were two beast carriages parked at the entrance. When they saw Sima Youyue, one of them gave her two noses to wake her up.
"Young Master Si Yue, please board the carriage." The moment the butler finished speaking, the coachman beside him immediately opened the carriage door.
Sima Youyue held Little Seven's hand and boarded the carriage in front while the butler boarded the carriage at the back. There was no need for the coachman to drive the carriage as the carriage started to run towards the Castellan's residence.
"Yue Yue, do you think the City Lord of Blood Fiend City looks very scary?" Little Seven asked.
"Why do you ask?"
"If I don't look like a burly man, how would I be able to subdue these outlaws in Blood Fiend City?"
"Hehe, you'll know when you see it."
The two of them chatted and laughed in the car, and soon, they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion in the city center.
The Castellan's Mansion looked majestic and domineering, but Sima Youyue did not sense anyone's aura here.
"Young Master Si Yue, Young Lady Little Seven, please follow me." The housekeeper came down from behind and waved his hand. The two beast carriages then drove off.
Sima Youyue and Little Seven followed the housekeeper into the City Lord Mansion. However, they did not bring her to the main hall in the front yard. Instead, they walked a long distance and went to a remote courtyard at the back.
When they entered, they saw a man in white sitting under a towering tree, holding a cup of tea in his hand.
"City Lord, Young Master Si Yue and Young Lady Little Seven are here." The housekeeper stepped forward and reported.
"Welcome to the two distinguished guests, I am Blood Fiend City's City Lord, Li Hong. Please take a seat. "The man looked at them, his eyes lifeless.
Sima Youyue did not expect that the Blood Fiend City's City Lord, who was dressed in white and did not have the aura of the mortal world, was actually blind!
Sima Youyue pulled Little Seven to sit in front of Li Hong and said, "I didn't expect that we would actually alarm City Lord Li and be received by City Lord Li."
"Young Master Si Yue is too courteous. I don't have much to receive you, only a cup of tea, I hope you don't mind. "Although Li Hong could not see, but his actions of pouring the tea were very nimble and the water level was just right.
He poured a cup to the brim and pushed it in front of Sima Youyue, then poured another cup for Little Seven.
Sima Youyue lifted the teacup and brought it to her nose to take a whiff, praising, "What a fragrant tea, I've never drunk this kind of tea before."
"These tea leaves were dried from the Blood Demon Tree's tender shoots. The taste is very unique, you can try it." Li Hong said.
Sima Youyue took a sip lightly, this tea was indeed very fragrant. However, she frowned slightly.
Little Seven took a whiff and did not drink it.
"How is it?" Li Hong looked at them expectantly, even though he could not see.
Sima Youyue put down the teacup and smiled faintly, "It's not bad."
"Then why isn't Miss Little Seven drinking it?"
"Little Seven has never liked tea." Sima Youyue mentioned Little Seven, "She only likes to eat snacks."
"Sweets are delicious." Little Seven said.
"City Lord Li, please don't laugh at us." Sima Youyue said with a smile.
"Why would I? It's normal for children to like sweets and not tea." Li Hong smiled and said.
His smile was very faint, making people feel very comfortable.
"These tea leaves were all plucked from the Blood Demon Tree?" Sima Youyue raised her head to look at the huge tree. It had huge tree roots, but there were very few branches and leaves.
"Yes. Every spring, there will be many tender shoots. After the spring rain, the taste is the freshest. "Li Hong said.
"The tea is good, but the name is a little scary." Sima Youyue said, not touching the teacup again.
"The Blood Demon Tree and Blood Fiend City were around the same time. No one knows what this tree was called in the past, so we named it after the city." Li Hong seemed to not have noticed that she did not drink tea. "My City Lord's residence doesn't have anything good. Since Young Master Si Yue likes it, please take a bag of tea leaves with you when you leave later. Take it as a token of my appreciation."
Sima Youyue saw his smile, as if there was a power that she could not bear to reject. She nodded and said, "In that case, Si Yue will thank City Lord Li."
"It's good that Young Master Si Yue likes it." Li Hong smiled faintly.
"City Lord Li, you didn't call me here today just to taste the tea right?" Sima Youyue asked.
"Hehe, would you believe me if I said so?" Li Hong asked.
"No." Sima Youyue said frankly.
"Hehe, Young Master Si Yue is really straightforward." Li Hong laughed, "Actually I didn't call Young Master Si Yue here for anything. I just heard about what happened at the Blood Arena last night and the night before, so I wanted to see what kind of people have such battle power. I also wanted to ask what is your motive for doing this. "
Sima Youyue remained silent and he continued, "Actually I don't mean to blame you. But for the safety of the people in the city, I still wanted to ask. "
"We just want to find some people here to go back." Sima Youyue said, "Those who lost the bet, follow me. Those who don't want to participate, Si Yue won't say anything. Only those who participated in it but wanted to deny it would be punished. As for whether they participate or not, they have the freedom to do so. "
"Just this?"
"Just this."
"In that case, it indeed won't affect the safety of Blood Fiend City." Li Hong said, "Then if there's nothing else, let's continue to taste the tea ….."
After more than an hour, the butler sent Sima Youyue and the rest off. Before they left, Li Hong passed her a bag of tea leaves and said with a smile, "Chatting with Young Master Si Yue is really a joyful experience. This is the last new bag of tea this year. I think the Blood Demon Tree will be very happy to give it to Young Master Si Yue. "
