West of the city, in a private room of a certain restaurant.
"Xiaoxiao, what's this?" Hua Jian asked curiously as she pointed at a dish on the table.
"Oh ~" Su Xiaoxiao smiled and replied, "This is called 'Snow Ape Fruit Offering'. It's a famous local dish in the Thousand Ape Mountains. It's made with the brain matter of a snow ape mixed with a secret sauce. Then, it's smeared on the surface of the snow fruits. Then, it's roasted with a high temperature … "
"Miss Su …" Ruo Yu put down her chopsticks when she heard the word 'brain matter'. "We've only met by chance. You've already helped us a lot by being willing to explain the various matters of the harem city to us. And now … you're treating us to such … "She thought for two seconds and chose an adjective," … such extravagant food … I'm afraid we're not worthy of it … "
"Ah ~ Sister Yu, what are you saying ~" Su Xiaoxiao waved her hand and replied, "Let's not talk about one table of food. Even if it's ten or a hundred tables of food, to me …" She seemed to have spilled the beans again and quickly corrected herself, "… to me, it's just a drop in the ocean."
"Miss Su …" With Ruo Yu's observation skills, she naturally noticed the various abnormalities on Su Xiaoxiao. She wasn't afraid of ruining the atmosphere and said directly, "I'll just say it … based on what you've told us and my observations, I think … you're not an 'ordinary person' …" She paused for a moment, "You … should be the city lord's subordinate, right?"
Su Xiaoxiao was obviously stunned when she heard that. Even the dog skin plaster couldn't hide the change in her expression.
Two seconds later, she smiled and looked at Ruo Yu, "Sister Yu is indeed beautiful and intelligent …" As she said that, she raised her hand and removed the plaster on her face.
Su Xiaoxiao's face was delicate and beautiful. Just based on appearance alone, she wasn't inferior to Lin Que in front of the Lian Xian Palace. However … there were three red birthmarks on her face. They were on the three places where she applied the plaster. This inevitably added a few blemishes to her beautiful face.
"That's right … I'm the military governor of the harem city, Su Xiaoxiao." Su Xiaoxiao continued, "Previously, I had no choice but to conceal my identity. I hope the two ladies can forgive me …"
Miss Su was the last of the three experts under Ji Chanlong's command. Her strength was slightly higher than Lin Que's, and she had just reached the Ninth Revolution of Saint Yuan.
"Forced?" Hua Jian asked suspiciously. "Did you receive an order to deal with the two of us?"
"No, no, no … Why would you say that …" Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly waved her hand and denied it. "I do have official duties to attend to, but I have no intention of harming you two."
"Then please explain." Ruo Yu looked straight into the other's eyes and said calmly.
"Hmm … It's like this …" Su Xiaoxiao replied, "Both of you have heard from me that every year on the twelfth of the Phoenix Month, the City Lord will tour the city to admire the flowers and look for beauties." She glanced at Ruo Yu and Hua Jian, "However … this harem city is huge. It's impossible for the City Lord to see everything in one night …"
"I understand." Hua Jian understood quickly. "On the surface, City Lord Ji only goes out to take concubines on the twelfth of the Phoenix Month, but in reality, she has been secretly looking for beauties all year round. You are one of her spies."
"You can say that …" Su Xiaoxiao smiled awkwardly. Although Hua Jian's choice of words was not pleasant to the ears, the general meaning was correct. "Actually, I only do this occasionally, and I'm often recognized … So today, I changed into a man's clothing …"
"Then … What do you want now?" Ruo Yu asked.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled embarrassedly. "Haha … Since we've talked about it, this commander might as well ask directly …" She adjusted her expression and continued, "Ladies, are you interested in meeting our City Lord?"
…
At the same time, in front of the Lian Xian Palace.
The stagnant Saint Yuan in the air had begun to settle down. The battle between the two Saint Yuan experts … was nearing its end.
At this time, Mo Ruo Qiu was covered in wounds and his strength was exhausted. Lin Que, on the other hand, was only slightly exhausted.
Just like what Lu Te had said in the previous chapter, at the same level, with each additional revolution, the amount of power would be doubled. So … the outcome of this battle was just a simple mathematical problem. A seventh revolution person fighting an eighth revolution person was like fighting with 50% health against 100% health in WAR3. Even if the opponent was brainless, they might not be able to win …
"Young Master Mo, enough is enough." Lin Que stood on the steps of Lian Xian Palace and looked down at Mo Ruo Qiu. "If you continue fighting, you won't be asking for a fight, you'll be asking for death …"
Lin Que's patience was almost at its limit. If not for the City Lord's order to not harm Mo Ruo Qiu's life, Lin Que would have already killed him.
"Hah … so what if I die …" Mo Ruo Qiu's face was ashen as he forcefully pushed his remaining Saint Qi and stepped forward again. "I'm asking for death … why do you need to persuade me?"
"Hmph …" Lin Que snorted. "You really don't know what's good for you … If I hadn't shown mercy, would you still be standing?" She flung her sleeves and shouted, "Mo Ruo Qiu! If you don't leave now, don't blame me for destroying your foundation and then finding someone to carry you away! "
Her words were both a threat and a dissuasion. To a cultivator, one's foundation was extremely important. Once one's foundation was damaged, no matter how high one's aptitude was, one's cultivation speed and limits would also be affected … Lin Que's harsh words were undoubtedly meant to make Mo Ruqiu retreat.
Unfortunately … as she had just said, Mo Ruo Qiu really didn't know what was good for him. Over the years, Young Master Mo had suffered too many setbacks and had long since become crazy. Right now, he was completely at a dead end … so he didn't consider any way out.
"Do as you wish!" Mo Ruo Qiu shouted as he pushed his Saint Qi.
In the next second, an earthen-yellow dragon-shaped energy condensed in midair and pounced toward the stairs.
"Haa …" Lin Que sighed, "Why bother …"
Even the two guards at the door with Saint Qi at the Limitless Third Cycle could see that although Mo Ruo Qiu's attack seemed powerful, it was actually just an arrow at the end of its flight …
Lin Que simply waved her hand and pushed her Saint Qi lightly, dispersing the dragon-shaped energy without leaving a trace.
"It's not over yet!" Mo Ruo Qiu didn't give up, allowing blood to flow from the corner of his mouth as he tried to force his Saint Qi out …
But this time, someone had strangled his actions before he could even think about them.
"Let's stop, Young Master Mo," A calm voice sounded.
Along with this voice, a golden light descended from the sky and covered Mo Ruo Qiu, completely suppressing his Secret Art.
"Yuan Suppression Golden Seal?" After all, Mo Ruo Qiu was the young master of one of the Four Great Families. After being hit, he immediately knew the name of the artifact that was suppressing him.
"It seems that Young Master Mo recognizes this artifact …" Yin Loulan said as she walked over. "Then you should also know that … your Saint Qi is almost depleted now. Under the influence of the Yuan Suppression Golden Seal, it is impossible for you to make a move."
"Yin Loulan …" Mo Ruo Qiu turned his head and muttered the other party's name.
Young Master Mo had heard of Yin Loulan's name a long time ago. Before the latter had become Ji Xiaolong's disciple, he had already been a well-known figure in the Pugilistic World. When people said, "One seal of heaven and earth, two swords overturn Loulan", they were referring to him.
Unfortunately … this genius swordsman, who had high hopes for the Righteous Path, had been plotted against in a duel with the Demon Path's Sword Venerable many years ago. Although he had successfully destroyed the other party's body and soul, his own foundation had also been severely damaged.
This episode had completely changed Yin Loulan's life from then on. If it had not been for this duel, he would have already become a Yuan Sage … and he would not have to submit to others and become the chief security officer of this harem city …
"Big Brother Yin, you came at the right time." Lin Que heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Yin Loulan. "If you had come a little later, I'm afraid …" She looked at Mo Ruo Qiu. "I wouldn't have had to do anything … he would have destroyed his own foundation."
"Sigh …" Yin Loulan let out a deep sigh. "Why do you have to do this …"
"Eh? These two are? " Lin Que asked when he saw Feng Bujue and Xu Huai Shang behind Yin Loulan.
"Oh, these two are the guests that the City Lord wants to see." Yin Loulan raised her head and replied. "I'll bring them to the front of the hall …"
"What!" Mo Ruo Qiu was shocked when he heard this. "She's willing to see these ordinary people without any internal force, but she's unwilling to see me?"
As he said this, Feng Bujue happened to walk past him … Brother Jue immediately displayed his talent in taunting. He turned his upper body and stretched out two fingers to make a victory sign at Mo Ruo Qiu. He even said ecstatically, "Yeah ~"
That expression, that gesture … It was as if a kindergarten child had received a little star …
Xu Huai Shang, who was walking beside Brother Jue, could only shake her head and say in her heart, "Big idiot …"
"Who are you? Why is Ruo Er willing to see you? " Although Mo Ruo Qiu did not know why the man in front of him suddenly said the word "liquid" to him, this did not stop him from asking the question in his heart.
Under these circumstances, it would be inappropriate for Feng Bujue, who was invited, to respond to an uninvited guest like Mo Ruo Qiu. This would make the host look rude. Therefore, Yin Loulan quickly stepped forward and blocked Mo Ruo Qiu. "This is Master Feng, he is a master from the outside world. He and his wife are the City Lord's guests. I hope Young Master Mo will not disturb them … "
"What? He's a master from the outside world? " Mo Ruo Qiu looked at Feng Bujue from head to toe, but he did not sense any aura of a master from him …
Yin Loulan then turned around and said to Brother Jue and Xu Huai Shang, "Erm … this Young Master Mo and our City Lord have some …" He thought for a while before continuing, "… some unfinished business." He paused. "I'm sorry …" He raised his hand and pointed at the door of the Lian Xian Palace. "Please don't mind me. This way …"
"Wait!" Mo Ruo Qiu shouted again. "I don't accept this! This is impossible! "He shouted," They can go in, but I can't? It must be you bunch of servants who made things difficult for him! It must be! Why won't you let me see Jin 'er! Why … "
"Shut up!" Suddenly, a shout filled with Saint Qi came from the Lian Xian Palace.
It was a woman's voice … Even though she had only said two words, and she had said it in a commanding tone, her voice was still pleasant to the ears and beautiful to the ears.
"You … you're finally willing to talk to me …" Mo Ruo Qiu's face was pale. He looked up at the ceiling in a daze, as if his Jin 'er was already in front of him.
However, Ji Xiaolong didn't want to talk to him. Therefore, only his voice could be heard, but not his face. "Brother Yin, can you please throw Young Master Mo into the sea? Let him calm down... Why are you shouting here?"
"As you wish." Yin Loulan cupped his fists and bowed to the palace door. He then turned around and put away the Yuan Qi Suppressing Golden Seal.
Mo Ruo Qiu had just regained his ability to move. Before he could do anything, Yin Loulan summoned a flying sword and threw him away.
"What are you doing! Let go of me! "Mo Ruo Qiu wailed like a ghost. He had completely lost his composure." Let go of me! Why did you break us up … "However, he did not manage to say much before he was dragged away …
"Hmm … He's a stalker …" Feng Bujue looked at the black shadow in the sky and murmured.
"This scene is so familiar …" Xu Huai Shang whispered, "But the version I saw was that he was dragged away by the security …"
"It's not easy for you either …" Feng Bujue added.
"It's okay …" Xu Huai Shang replied.
"Master Feng, Miss Lu." On the other side, Ji Zhuolong's voice sounded again. "Please … come in."
