Xu Lu's face was full of despair. She had never been so desperate even when the corpse demon was blocking the village and chasing her.
Xu Lu didn't want to get an answer from Chen Yang so much as she didn't want to accept this reality.
Unexpectedly, she actually got a different answer from Chen Yang.
"It's possible it's not true."
Chen Yang said calmly.
Xu Lu looked up at him in shock, her eyes red from crying flashed with surprise of seeing light in despair.
Chen Yang took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Everything I just said was obtained from collecting information from all parties in Longmen County."
"Not to mention that these messages are separated by another layer. It is the people who provide these messages. What they see and hear may not be the truth."
"Everything is possible."
When Chen Yang said this, he also felt that things in the world were wonderful, but when he saw an uneven road, he actually saved Xu Qian's sister from the drought demon.
What he said was not to comfort Xu Lu. After all, he had never collected information about Xu Qian's sister named Xu Lu.
Mistakes can happen even in such trivial matters, let alone when it involves the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, when it involves a great demon like Hanba, and when it involves the conspiracy of a peerless great demon against the Dragon King...
There are countless secrets in each of them, all of which are unclear and incomprehensible, and they are constantly reversing. It is normal, but no one dares to say it with certainty.
Chen Yang's words rekindled the light of hope in Xu Lu's eyes.
She stood up and knelt down again: "Sir, please forgive me for saving my life later."
"Xu Lu is going to Bowang City to find my brother and ask him clearly."
Chen Yang shook his head, but did not stop him. He just asked lightly: "Have you thought clearly?"
"Think it through."
"It's not impossible to go, but it's just not possible today.
Let’s wait until tomorrow.”
Chen Yang didn't explain why it couldn't work today and had to wait until tomorrow.
Not to mention that he was going to Bowang City tonight, and to the ruins of the burned mine, to meet the legendary Drought Demon for a while.
Judging from what can be seen in the foreign object bronze mirror, after today, it should be safe there, at least you won't encounter hordes of corpse demons easily.
Whatever Xu Lu wants to do then, let her do it.
Anyway, Chen Yang never expected Xu Lu to be a maid who did laundry for him.
Xu Lu nodded silently. As for whether she heard it or not, only she knew.
"alright."
Chen Yang stood up and walked towards the fence.
"Just rest. After today, whatever you want to do, just do it."
"I still have something to do, so I'll take the first step."
Chen Yang's figure flickered briefly and disappeared in front of the thatched house. When he reappeared, he was already a hundred feet away.
"gentlemen......"
Xu Lu subconsciously wanted to shout, but stopped abruptly.
She knelt down in the direction of Chen Yang's retreating back and kowtowed three times.
Then, Xu Lu did not go back to rest in the thatched house as Chen Yang said. Instead, she pushed aside the fence and walked out with a suggestive look on her face.
The wind suddenly picked up and blew over Xu Lu's face, causing tiny teardrops to fly.
"My benefactor, I'm sorry. Xu Lu can't listen to you. I probably won't have the chance to serve you or wash your clothes in the future."
"I'm going to find my brother and ask him clearly."
The thatched house was quiet again, except for the water vapor still evaporating from the teapot.
Chen Yang did not guess whether Xu Lu would listen to his instructions, but instead quickened his pace, his strides became longer, and he quickly headed towards Bowang City...
