After Yan Kuangshan left, Xue Yan stayed alone in the conference hall.
Ta-ta, tap-ta, tap-ta...
The sound of clear footsteps rang in his ears. Xue Yan raised his head and looked at Gongsun Mei walking towards him.
"Master Xue, I wonder if there is anything I can know?"
Ever since Yan Kuangshan deliberately pushed her away, Gongsun Mei knew very well that this incident was serious, otherwise there would be no need to evade him who had basically made it clear who his side was.
Xue Yan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said:
"What do you think of City Lord Yan?"
Gongsun Mei stepped forward to make the already cold tea again, and then said:
"The fact that he can still secure this position after three consecutive city lords died in Xuanyang City shows his ability."
"What about wisdom?" Xue Yan, who said these words, also noticed that he was somewhat mentally unbalanced. Of course, it would be more accurate to say that he was dissatisfied.
Since joining the Six Sects, he is not as good as many people in terms of martial arts, but in terms of calculations and people's hearts, he feels that he is much stronger than those stupid bureaucrats who have always stood too high.
He even vaguely thought that if he and Yu Cangmiao had the same opportunity, he might not become the second person who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Of course, in fact, his journey has been smooth sailing. Even if it seems that being transferred to this chaotic realm is a hard job, he has still been promoted two levels in his official position.
But in the past month or so, he has been dealt too many blows, so much so that he has begun to wonder if he has always been just lucky, so all he meets are fools.
Gongsun Mei blinked. She also noticed some changes in Xue Yan's mentality. She frowned subconsciously and said:
"You make me regret choosing to cooperate with you."
"Answer my question." Xue Yan now must have an answer, whether it is positive or negative, otherwise he may not even have the courage to step out of the city lord's mansion.
Gongsun Mei looked at Xue Yan seriously and said:
"I don't know much about Lord Yan's wisdom, and I can't comment on it.
But judging from the position you stand with him, there is one thing he is definitely far superior to you."
"What is it?"
"pattern."
After watching Gongsun Mei say these two words lightly, she began to concentrate on washing and making tea, as if she was no longer paying attention to her.
Xue Yan fell into deep thought, and the stubbornness in his eyes gradually dissipated.
The two words "pattern" hit the nail on the head. What Xue Yan has always been proud of is that he worked his way up from the bottom and reached his current position step by step.
Therefore, he believed that this valuable life experience became the key to defeating those big men whose starting point was the ending point of others.
But now that I think about it, it was because of this that his calculations could only be used for small storms and waves in daily life. When he encountered a real storm, he would get confused.
"I should learn from you." Xue Yan took the tea cup from Gongsun Mei and said.
Gongsun Mei was silent for a moment and said: "I hope Master Xue can tell me some information that I can know."
"What happened this time is not only related to the small Xuanyang Domain, but also to the entire world. Do you still want to listen to what I'm going to say next?" Xue Yan ignored the boiling tea and took a sip.
Gongsun Mei thought for a longer time this time.
"I want to know if Master Qin is in the same situation as us?"
Xue Yan shook his head:
"According to what City Lord Yan said, no, he stands higher than us. There are some things he dares to do, but we cannot.
I don’t know where his confidence comes from, but the current situation is that only by standing on the same side with him can we at least protect our own lives."
"I understand." Gongsun Mei stopped Xue Yan from continuing and said softly, "This is actually what Mr. Xue is best at, isn't it? Taking advantage of the competition between strong men, and then taking advantage of it to gain some benefits."
"Yeah, this is what I'm best at, but I also made a mistake." Xue Yan held the tea cup and looked at the raindrops falling outside with his eyes.
"oh?"
"When I think I stand high enough, I start showing off some clever tricks."
"So, what's next?"
"If I make a mistake, correct it and do what I can do." Xue Yan drank the tea in one gulp before standing up. After taking a few steps, he suddenly turned around and said to Gongsun Mei, "The tea is good."
"Then I'll invite Mr. Xue to drink next time I have the chance." After Gongsun Mei packed up the tea sets, he quickly walked a few steps and caught up with Xue Yan, who was waiting outside the conference hall.
Then one person and one umbrella walked slowly forward in this lonely rainy night.
But also in Yangshuang City, the relationship between a man and a woman is not so harmonious.
Sister Meimei has been pacing back and forth in the manor anxiously. When she saw Dao Kuang and Sword Chicai rushing back from outside, she couldn't help but get angry.
"We made an appointment for half an hour, but now it's been three hours. You said before that you wanted to get some information from [I'm so proud], but in the end you ended up playing cards, right?
Brother Dao! Do you know our situation?"
After returning to Yangshuang City from an inexplicable death, and then being expelled back to the manor inexplicably after reporting the letter, the two players were completely dumbfounded.
They can't get reinforcements, and today's players are even more useless. Even if 2,000 first-time closed beta players gather together, they probably won't be able to stop several waves of attacks from the ferocious beasts.
They even wanted to run back to collect the body of their own camp boss, but found that they didn't recognize the road.
So at his wits' end, Sword Maniac volunteered to go to the temporary residence of the Swordsmith Hall to get some information, at least to find out who the enemy he wanted to take revenge on would be in the future.
As a result, you can never suppress the impulse of a card-playing enthusiast.
In response to this, the mad swordman said with a calm expression:
"Look at our task bar. If the task has not failed, it means that the village owner is not dead yet.
Think about it, how many hours have passed since we returned to Yangshuang City after death, but the village owner is still alive, so I seriously suspect that there is something fishy.
In addition, I got some information. Xiang Bohuai, the third elder of the Forging Knife Hall, said he was going out to investigate the reason for the sudden arrival of the beast tide, and left Yangshuang City early in the morning."
Sister Meimei had just breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart suddenly became anxious again.
"When we were in the ring before, didn't Ying Wuque say that the cause of this fight was Xiang Bohuai? In addition, he also said that the other party was a strong man in the Grand Master Realm!
No matter how you look at it, these are enemies rather than friends!"
"Then you should think carefully about why the owner of the village is still alive and well if he really encounters a powerful master who wants to harm him."
There was a flash of confusion in Dao Kuang Jian Chi's eyes, and of course there was one doubt he had not told Sister Meimei.
After calming down, he suddenly thought that something was wrong.
Why did Feng Mo, who was in the Great Consummation of Tongmai Realm, guide him once and let his sword-drawing slash complete the transformation and at the same time, the upper limit of the power reach the earth level.
Is this really what a Tongmai realm warrior can do? Then is it true to infer that Feng Mo's injury is true?
The more Sword Madman thinks about it, the more he becomes frightened.
