After hearing Lu An's words, Liu Li's body trembled and her originally excited face immediately turned pale. Her mood quickly turned gloomy as she said, "There are only six days left. The journey from the Royal City to the Grand Desolation City can't be completed in six days."
"The Shiku Kan Desert is now Glazed Tile Palace's territory. I just need to send you to the desert." Lu An found a clean place to sit down and looked at Liu Li as he said, "Also, we can find a city's teleportation array and directly teleport to the Three Continents City."
Liu Li was shocked again when she heard this. She lowered her head and didn't say anything. Lu An also didn't say anything. He really wanted to leave and wasn't just saying it.
After the two rested for a quarter of an hour, Lu An brought Liu Li and continued on their journey. Under Liu Li's guidance, the two headed towards the nearest city. On the morning of the second day, the two successfully entered the city. Lu An didn't waste any time and directly snuck into the City Lord's Mansion. He held an official hostage and asked for the whereabouts of the teleportation array.
The official was so scared that his face turned pale. He hurriedly brought Lu An and Liu Li to the secret room with the teleportation array. After entering, the teleportation array was indeed here. After opening the teleportation array, Lu An and Liu Li entered together.
Three breaths later, in the Three Continents City.
Lu An and Liu Li successfully entered the Three Continents City. They quickly left through the teleportation array in the City Lord's Mansion and entered the streets. Lu An finally heaved a sigh of relief. As long as he hurried, it wouldn't take long for him to reach the desert. This way, he could leave Liu Li with the Glazed Tile Palace's people in peace.
However, just as Lu An was about to leave the Three Continents City with Liu Li, Liu Li suddenly stopped and said to Lu An, "I don't want to go back now. We're already so close to the desert and we're already safe. After returning to the desert, I don't know how long we'll have to stay in the sandstorm. I want to walk around here for a day. "
Lu An was stunned when he heard this. He frowned and said, "As long as we don't enter the desert, we'll be in danger. Safety is more important."
"With you protecting me, what am I afraid of?" Liu Li said softly, "You can bring me out of the palace, so why are you afraid of a small Three Continents City? Even if everyone here came to catch us, they wouldn't be a match for you, right? "
"…"
Just as Lu An was about to say something, Liu Li interrupted again, "I've said it before, I hired you to protect me, not to restrict my freedom. What, the value of a Seventh Tier Heaven Art can't even achieve this? "
"…"
Lu An's frown deepened. In the end, he didn't say anything and just nodded.
Seeing this, Liu Li smiled and immediately wanted to pull Lu An's hand forward, but Lu An dodged. The two of them continued to walk on the street. Liu Li was very interested in the things sold by the small shops on the street. She had a lot of fun.
On the other side, Lu An activated his Scorching Nine Suns, completely enveloping the surrounding streets. Even the slightest movement could not escape his perception. So far, there had been no abnormalities.
As they walked and strolled, the whole morning passed like this. Liu Li also bought a lot of things and put them in the ring. At noon, Liu Li suddenly turned to look at Lu An and said with a smile, "There's nothing good to eat in the desert, and there's nothing to eat back in the palace. Let's find the most luxurious tavern to eat!"
After saying that, without waiting for Lu An's agreement, Liu Li turned around and skipped ahead.
Soon, the two of them found a tavern that looked very good. The first floor of the tavern even had a stage for performances. It was very high-end. Liu Li and Lu An found a private room on the second floor. Liu Li ordered a lot of dishes in one go, and the two of them couldn't finish it.
"This song is far worse than the one in the palace!" Liu Li said after listening for a while, "The instrument is bad, and the person playing it is also bad. But it's passable. After all, it's not easy to find a tavern that plays music."
After saying that, Liu Li picked up the jug of wine that had just been brought and poured wine for Lu An and herself. She said, "Come, let's have a drink!"
When Lu An heard this, he withdrew his gaze from the stage and looked at Liu Li. He said, "I'm not drinking."
Liu Li was stunned. She deliberately made an unhappy expression and said, "Which man doesn't drink? In the desert, Yan Dingjiang and the others couldn't even drink a sip of wine!"
When Lu An heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "Unless it's a special situation, I won't drink. I don't think drinking has anything to do with men."
Hearing Lu An's slightly angry tone, Liu Li was obviously stunned. She knew that Lu An probably really didn't like drinking, so she could only awkwardly take back the wine glass and drink it.
"When the deadline is up, where will you go?" Liu Li looked at Lu An and asked.
"I don't know." Lu An said truthfully.
"Don't you have a home?" Liu Li asked again.
When Lu An heard this, he glanced at Liu Li. He thought for a moment and said, "Yes."
When she heard that Lu An was willing to answer her question, Liu Li was delighted. She quickly took the opportunity to ask, "Do you have a family?"
Although Lu An was less than sixteen years old, it was normal for him to have a family at this age. Either they were betrothed before they were born, or they were matched in terms of social status. Moreover, Lu An was so strong that he probably had a lot of women in his heart, right?
When Lu An heard this, he frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Yes."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Li was shocked!
"Do you really have a family?" Liu Li quickly put down the wine glass. Her voice suddenly became louder. She looked at Lu An and asked, "How many do you have?"
"One." Lu An frowned and said.
When she heard that there was only one answer, Liu Li was relieved. It was common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, especially the higher the status of the person, the more concubines. If there was only one, she could accept it.
However, at this moment, Lu An continued, "There will always be only one."
Liu Li was shocked. She looked up at Lu An with a stunned expression and asked, "Why?"
"No reason." Lu An did not want to explain this question. The two of them had different views. No matter how much he explained, it would not make sense. In his heart, there was only one person, and he would only want one. There would not be a second one.
When she heard Lu An's words, Liu Li could not help but feel disappointed. If that was the case, would she not have any chance at all?
"Lu An, actually, there are many good Heaven Skills in the palace. There are even Level Seven ones." Liu Li thought for a while, looked at Lu An and said seriously, "As long as you help me until I become the Queen, I will give you all the Heaven Skills you want."
"No need." Lu An shook his head and said, "I have learned so many Heaven Skills and have not used them. I have not learned Shocking Fire yet. What I have now is enough."
When she heard Lu An's words, Liu Li was disappointed again. Lu An did not comfort her. He only said, "Hurry up and eat. After eating, we will leave quickly and leave the Three States City."
"…"
Liu Li did not speak again. She lowered her head and kept eating. Lu An knew that his actions would make Liu Li unhappy, but he could not care less. He was destined to leave. Why should he have too much interaction with these people?
Finally, after a full forty-five minutes, Liu Li finally finished eating. Liu Li, who had eaten a lot, sat on a chair to rest. At this time, a new song was played, causing Liu Li's body to tremble slightly.
"This Ambush on All Sides is not bad." Liu Li looked at the stage with some astonishment and said, "It is obviously much better than the previous song. It seems that this person likes this song very much."
Lu An was stunned. Although he did not understand music, he could tell the quality of the sound. This song was indeed more pleasing to the ear, but the name of the song made Lu An feel uncomfortable.
"Let's go." For some reason, after hearing this song, Lu An suddenly felt very uneasy. He suddenly got up and said to Liu Li who was resting, "We will rest on the way."
Liu Li was stunned. It was not easy to hear a song that was pleasant to the ear. She wanted to listen to it for a while. Just as she was about to talk about her employment theory, she saw that Lu An's eyes were very serious. She immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. She could only get up and reluctantly leave with Lu An.
However, just as the two of them reached the stairs to the first floor, a voice suddenly sounded!
"Such a beautiful song, why not listen to it before making a move? Don't ruin everyone's mood."
Lu An's heart sank. He turned his head and looked at the source of the voice. In the lobby of the first floor, a middle-aged man who had just sat down poured a pot of tea. He raised his head and looked at Lu An with displeasure.
