Yin Fan frowned. Although he wanted to make Hongye Lake clear again, he was also happy to give away the two hot potatoes in his hands.

But that was after he got Du Lun's inheritance. Yin Fan knew that Xie Li and Yin Mel took a lot of property with them when they fled, but he didn't know the exact amount.

But Du Lun has been the captain of the Imperial Guard for such a long time, so he must have a lot of savings. How could Yin Fan be willing to spit out such a big piece of fat when he put it in his mouth.

He thought for a moment and said to Li Yu, "You can take Yin Mel back to Luye for treatment, but her mother will stay, and you will have to send Yin Mel back after she is cured.

"My cousin Duren entrusted them to me. I can't just ignore them."

Miss Rabbit was amused by Yin Fan's shameless words.

If it weren't for the fact that he was still in the opponent's territory, the female lord would have just drawn the gun and shot this guy out.

"I have no objection," Li Yu said, "but the key to this matter is whether Miss Yin Meier is happy or not."

"What's the meaning?"

"She is the one responsible for communicating with Shui Ling. If she cannot keep her mind calm, the communication will most likely fail."

"Are you taking me for a fool, Prophet Merlin?" Yin Fan frowned more and more, "I have never heard of this saying. The success of the ceremony also depends on the mood of the sacrifice."

"This is also the reason why you still can't do anything about Hongye Lake." Li Yu said calmly.

"Bold!" Yin Fan's guard chief Dave shouted, "How dare you be so disrespectful to Lord Yin Fan."

As he spoke, he took a step towards Li Yu's direction.

The threat contained in his step was mainly symbolic, so Li Yu should be careful when he spoke next.

But he didn't expect that Li Yu didn't react at all. The guy next to him, who was wearing a weird black and white mask, had said nothing since he came in, and didn't even eat, suddenly stood up and walked towards him.

Dave couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed when he saw this, and yelled, "Stop! Otherwise, don't blame me for attacking you."

However, the man seemed not to hear.

Dave saw that the warning was useless, and the anger in his chest suddenly surged, but he still maintained the minimum restraint and did not draw his sword.

Because the person opposite also had no weapon in his hand, Dave planned to use his fists to teach the other person a lesson. However, as soon as the two met each other, Dave felt a sharp pain on his face.

He didn't even see what the opponent was doing, so he covered his nose and fell backwards.

Seeing that their captain was at a disadvantage, the four guards on the side all surrounded him and drew their swords at the same time.

At this time, the strange man wearing a mask picked up Dave's sword.

The next moment, I saw him leaping into the crowd, his sword coming out like a dragon. No one was his enemy. In just a moment, the swords in the hands of the four guards were knocked away by him.

Everyone present was dumbfounded by this miraculous swordsmanship. Yin Fan said, "Everyone, step aside. Prophet Merlin and Miss Yin Leiya are our distinguished guests." The battle was already over before he finished speaking.

This also made him very embarrassed.

Yin Fan obviously didn't expect that his men were so incompetent. They couldn't defeat one of the five. In addition, the momentum and martial arts displayed by the masked man also made him secretly frightened.

It seems that there is something indeed about this pair of martial arts. There are so many masters under his command, and it is no accident that Yin Leiya won the championship in this martial arts competition.

Although one of the two parties was in the Western Region and the other was in the Elk Valley, and it was unlikely that they would have much contact with each other, Yin Fan's attitude became much more polite after that.

He said to Li Yu, "Prophet Merlin, you said that the ceremony might fail, which means it might succeed. Can you try it first?"

"Okay." Li Yu did not refute this time, but just said, "Give me some time to prepare, and we can set off before dusk."

"Thank you." Yin Fan nodded.

Then the banquet continued, but when Yin Mel ate the same food in his mouth, he could no longer taste anything.

Now she is like a puppy in the rain, huddled under the eaves and shivering.

Her fate was decided in just a few words, and she didn't even get a chance to interrupt.

For the first time, Yin Mel felt the cruelty of this world.

She didn't know how she survived the next period of time. Her mind was confused and she wanted to go find her mother, but Shelly and Uncle Matt had already been taken away by the maid.

After everyone had had enough wine and food, Yin Fan said to Li Yu, "I will ask Garrison to assist you. If you need anything else, you can tell him. In addition, I also want to say a few words to my niece."

talk.

"Calm down her nervousness. She can understand that this is a necessary sacrifice for the people living on this land, but after all, she is only fourteen years old, so she will inevitably be nervous."

Yin Leya looked at Li Yu, who nodded slightly, and Shuangxiujiao and his team left the hall.

The man wearing a black and white mask was the last to leave, and glanced at Yin Fan before leaving.

His gaze made Yin Fan a little uncomfortable, but now it was Yin Fan who was asking for help. In addition, there were many masters among the believers on Saturday, so Yin Fan pretended not to see him.

After walking out of the castle, Li Yu patted the masked man on the shoulder and comforted him, "Wait a moment, and I promise to take away your daughter and wife soon."

The masked man nodded, and then sighed, "Am I really bad at judging people?"

"I think you are just used to judging others by yourself, thinking that everyone will treat you the same way you treat them. But in fact, there are very few people in this world who can have the character you have."

"I suddenly discovered that I am not a competent father or husband. What I insist on will only bring disaster to the people around me." The masked man smiled bitterly.

"No, you just weren't put in the right position." Li Yu said, "You actually did a pretty good job when you were the captain of the royal guard. Although there was a slight situation in the end, it was not your fault.

.

"No matter how good the guards are, they can't prevent betrayal from those around them, but if it involves politics... then it's really not your strong point."

"Priest Cornelia also said something similar to me. Leaving the royal capital may also be a relief for me."

The former captain of the royal guard was silent for a moment and then spoke. After a pause, he then said, "Are you really sure that you can purify Hongye Lake for Yin Fan?"
