4372 What kind of trick is he playing?
Afraid that the innkeeper would be worried, Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen waved goodbye to the grandfather and grandson and went to the city gate first. There were many spies from the city Lord’s Manor in apricot Sun City. Since they had told advisor Yin that they were going to wait for their Junior Brother at the city gate, they naturally had to put on an act.
“Xiaode should have been poisoned, right?” Huangfu qingjue looked into the distance and said as if he was deep in thought.
“Yes. There are not many people in Qing-Yun realm who are good at using poison to detoxify the poison. This kind of poison is very rare. If I didn’t have some knowledge and read the all spirits record, I wouldn’t be able to detoxify this poison. It’s a good thing that xiaode wasn’t deeply poisoned, or else even if he was cured, he wouldn’t have been able to completely recover his mind. ” Ling Chuxi said with a serious expression.
“It seems that the so-called plague of Haojia village was actually the same poison. It’s only because of the long passage of time that the poison left in the village is not as toxic as before, that Xiao de was able to keep his life.” Huangfu qingjue said.
“That should be the case. I’m guessing that all of this is related to the city Lord’s mansion,” Ling Chuxi said.
After discovering the truth of the disaster in the Hao Family Village from Xiao de, Ling Chuxi was almost certain that all of this was related to the city Lord’s mansion.
“Let’s go. Let’s see what they’re up to. ” Seeing that it was about time, Huangfu qingjue held Ling Chuxi’s hand and returned to the city, walking in the direction of the city Lord’s mansion.
This was also what Ling Chuxi was thinking. The misty cloud Mountain range was so big that it was easier said than done to find the gold spiritual Pearl. If there was someone to guide the way, it would naturally be much easier.
Previously, Ling Chuxi was still a little hesitant about whether she should be the bad guy for once and snatch the gold spiritual Pearl from the hands of the city Lord. Now that she had guessed the truth behind the disease in the Hao Family Village, she no longer had any hesitation.
For her own benefit, she had killed innocent villagers and forced the Hao family members to leave their homes. Ling Chuxi would never be soft-hearted towards such a person, even if she had to be cut into a thousand pieces.
When he arrived at the city Lord’s residence, he reported to the guards and very quickly, advisor Yin came out to welcome him with a face full of smiles.
“Why don’t I see your Junior Brother?” Seeing that Ling Chuxi and Huangfu qingjue were only two people, advisor Yin asked.
“He hasn’t arrived even after waiting for a long time. Maybe he was delayed on the way. We’re too lazy to wait for him.” Ling Chuxi said.
“Then I’ll instruct the guards at the city gate to keep an eye out and inform them immediately if any disciples from the ethereal sect residence come.” Advisor Yin did not pay much attention to it. There were many young disciples from the families and sects who went out to train. The Qing-Yun realm was huge, so it was normal for something to happen on the way.
After giving some instructions to the guards at the door, advisor Yin led Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen into the city Lord’s mansion.
Although apricot Sun City was dilapidated and depressed, the inside of the city Lord’s Manor was built with small bridges and flowing water pavilions, which were luxurious and could be compared to those ancient aristocratic families. It was unknown how much wealth the city Lord’s family had plundered from the people.
When he arrived at the magnificent reception hall, he found that there were already more than 20 young people gathered there, each of them dressed in gorgeous clothes and had an extraordinary aura.
Seeing Ling Chuxi and Huangfu qingjue, these people’s gazes only stopped on their faces for a moment before they turned their heads away in disdain. Instead, a white-bearded old man dressed in luxurious clothes came forward to welcome them.
“These two must be miss Ling and young master Huangfu from the ethereal sect. I am the city Lord of apricot city, Xiao Hanshui. I heard from advisor Yin that the two of you are old friends, so I hope you can forgive me for not being able to welcome you.” The old man cupped his hands and smiled affably, making people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.
