Book One, Chapter 223
Shui Ziyan still did not believe him and said, "What proof do you have?"
Zhao Fu said, "The butler and the guards can prove it."
Hearing this, Shui Ziyan looked at Zhao Fu and did not doubt him anymore before turning and leaving.
Seeing her leave, Zhao Fu immediately left the City Hall and headed towards another region.
The third day.
Zhao Fu sensed battle ripples and flew in that direction. However, he did not reach that place and saw Shui Ziyan lying on the ground, covered with blood, looking as if she had been heavily injured.
Zhao Fu had never thought that he would meet her again, and he walked over.
Looking at Zhao Fu walking over, Shui Ziyan felt quite surprised.
Zhao Fu walked over to Shui Ziyan and asked, "What happened?"
Shui Ziyan said weakly, "I just killed a water beast."
Water beasts were monsters that lived in water, and they came in all shapes and sizes. They were also quite powerful.
Zhao Fu said, "I'll help you heal your injuries!"
Shui Ziyan said weakly, "You don't have that ability; it's best if you go back to Demon Grass City."
Zhao Fu smiled and did not reply. He picked Shui Ziyan up and sent a wave of energy into her body, starting to heal her injuries.
Shui Ziyan looked at Zhao Fu in shock; she had never thought that Zhao Fu would really be able to heal her. Looking at Zhao Fu's perfect face, Shui Ziyan's face became slightly red, and she started to have a good impression of Zhao Fu.
Seeing how shy she looked, Zhao Fu could not help but kiss her.
A few hours later, Shui Ziyan lay in Zhao Fu's embrace with a red face. She did not regret what had happened between her and Zhao Fu.
Now that Shui Ziyan's injuries had healed, she said, "Let's go back together!"
Zhao Fu smiled as he said, "I won't be going!"
Shui Ziyan asked curiously, "Aren't you a servant of the City Hall?"
Zhao Fu thought for a moment before he smiled and said, "I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving for a few days. I'll go back after I'm done with them."
Shui Ziyan looked at Zhao Fu suspiciously.
Zhao Fu smiled awkwardly and said, "I really have something to do."
Shui Ziyan smiled and said, "I know, I also have this for you." As she spoke, Shui Ziyan took out a jade ball and gave it to Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu asked curiously, "What is this?"
Shui Ziyan said with a smile, "This is a treasure that the City Lord bestowed upon me. It can save your life in times of danger."
Zhao Fu looked at the jade ball, and his expression suddenly turned serious. Originally, Zhao Fu didn't care much about this thing, but he discovered that the jade ball had a trace of the Water World's aura, which meant that this jade ball was related to the Water World.
Zhao Fu asked seriously, "Where did you say you got this jade ball from?"
Shui Ziyan said, "It was given to me by the City Lord. Why?"
Zhao Fu asked again, "Do you know the origin of this jade ball?"
Shui Ziyan shook her head.
Zhao Fu started to think about it. He was sure that there was an Water World in Demon Grass City, so he had to return to Demon Grass City. He had been too careless this time, and if he hadn't met Shui Ziyan, he would have missed this Water World.
Shui Ziyan asked curiously, "What are you thinking about?"
Zhao Fu smiled and said, "Nothing, let's go back together!"
Shui Ziyan asked curiously, "Didn't you say that you had something to do? Why are you fine now? "
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "Yes!"
Shui Ziyan rolled her eyes at Zhao Fu; she had really believed Zhao Fu just now.
The two of them returned to Demon Grass City.
Shui Ziyan said, "I'm going to report what happened to the City Lord."
Zhao Fu nodded. He also had to stay and carefully investigate and collect information to see where the Water World was hidden.
Because it was the City Lord's Mansion, there were many powerful restrictions and array formations, and Zhao Fu couldn't use other Water Worlds to stir it up.
After Shui Ziyan left, Shui Lan immediately pulled Zhao Fu into the room and warmly greeted Zhao Fu. Afterwards, Shui Lan lay in Zhao Fu's arms and asked softly, "Where have you been these days? I missed you. "
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "I was just walking around!"
Shui Lan said apologetically, "I was wrong in the past, so I apologize to you. Don't leave me in the future, okay?"
Zhao Fu said, "Mm, alright."
Shui Lan smiled and hugged Zhao Fu with both hands.
Zhao Fu said, "I want a position where I can walk around the City Lord's Mansion at will. Can you give it to me?"
Shui Lan smiled as she said, "That's simple; you just need to take my command medallion."
Shui Lan took out a jade medallion that had a command medallion written on one side and many medicinal herbs engraved on the other. With this medallion, it would be much easier for Zhao Fu to investigate, so he put it away.
Zhao Fu smiled as he said, "Thank you, wife!"
Shui Lan happily smiled and nodded. Even though she was quite infatuated with Zhao Fu, she did not ask about Zhao Fu's purpose, and she no longer looked as calm and arrogant as before.
Following this, Zhao Fu took Shui Lan's command medallion and started to walk around. Seeing that Zhao Fu was carrying the command medallion, the patrolling guards did not question him.
Zhao Fu saw a tall and thin old man walking to the side carrying vegetables. He immediately walked over and smiled as he said, "Old man! Let me help you. "
The old man chuckled and gave the vegetables to Zhao Fu as he asked, "Are you new here? You're quite sensible. "
Zhao Fu picked up the vegetables and smiled as he replied, "Mm, I've only been here for a few days. How long have you been here?"
The old man proudly smiled as he said, "Me? It's been almost 100 years. "
Zhao Fu smiled as he continued to ask, "I heard that the old City Lord obtained an Eight Direction Water World. But it was stolen; who do you think stole it? "
The old man smiled as he said, "How would I know?"
Zhao Fu continued to ask, "Why did the old City Lord go missing?"
The old man thought about it and replied, "I only heard that the old City Lord was seriously injured, but I don't know what happened afterwards."
Zhao Fu wondered if the Eight Direction Water World had really been stolen, but the old City Lord had discovered it and taken it back. However, he had been seriously injured, so he had quickly passed the position of City Lord to another City Lord.
The Eight Direction Water World was definitely still in Demonic Grass City, so where did the current City Lord hide it?
Zhao Fu started to think.
After some time. The old man smiled as he said, "It's here! Thank you, young man! "
Zhao Fu came back to his senses and found that he had come to a kitchen. He put down the vegetables and smiled as he said, "Old man, you're too polite. You can come to me if you need anything in the future."
The old man smiled as he said, "Okay!"
Seeing the old man carry the vegetables in, Zhao Fu left and continued to think about where the Eight Direction Water World was hidden. The first place he suspected was the treasury. There were countless treasures in Demonic Grass City, and the guards were very strict, so the things placed there would be relatively safe.
Zhao Fu decided to find an opportunity to sneak into Demonic Grass City's treasury to see if there was an Eight Direction Water World. If there wasn't, he would continue to look for the next place.
