Sikong Nan did not answer Qiao Ye's question in the end.
However, many times, the answer does not need to be spoken. It is enough for Qiao Ye to feel what Sikong Nan means.
After all, the Demon Hall is still the official organization of the Daqian Dynasty. Whether it is obedient or not, it is so on the surface. As the city lord, Si Kongnan has no brains to answer Qiao Ye's question directly. God knows who Qiao Ye is. On one side.
But Qiao Ye's wandering eyes from Sikong Nan had already gotten the answer she wanted. As long as the man in front of her had the chance, he would definitely eradicate the Demon Hall without hesitation.
Then, the problem becomes simpler.
Qiao Ye only had one concern, and that was Sikong Nan's loyalty.
The Daqian Dynasty is now weak, but if Sikong Nan is still loyal to the court, then it is impossible for Sikong Nan to eradicate the Demon Hall, even if Sikong Nan looks at the Demon Hall, he is quite dissatisfied.
But if Si Kongnan wants to be the local emperor in Yecheng, the Demon Hall must be eradicated or incorporated.
From Sikong Nan's hesitation, Qiao Ye knew the answer. If Sikong Nan was still loyal to the Daqian Dynasty, there was no need to hesitate.
Qiao Ye curled her lips, then reinforcements will be available.
Qiao Ye has already inquired about the relationship between the City Lord's Mansion and the Demon Hall very clearly. There are two reasons why Si Kongnan did not take action against the Demon Hall. The first is that the current leader of the Demon Hall, Bai Kaixin, is both at the first level of the Demon King Realm. However, Si Kong Nan was not completely sure about dealing with Bai Kaixin.
The second thing is that the Demon Hall is an official organization of the Daqian Dynasty. No matter what it is secretly, if this layer of identity is not stripped off on the surface, it cannot be done openly.
On the contrary, Bai Kaixin also had the same concerns. Bai Kaixin was also not completely sure about dealing with Si Kong Nan. Moreover, Si Kong Nan was the city lord after all, so this status would make Bai Kaixin worry.
This is a mutual check and balance, so as long as someone comes to break this check and balance, it will be fine.
Sikong Nan was silent for a long time, then raised his head and asked, "What do you want?"
Qiao Ye reached into her sleeves, took out a roll of paper, and threw it casually. The roll of paper floated towards Si Kong Nan and fell into Si Kong Nan's hand. Si Kong Nan opened it and took a look. It is a portrait painting.
Qiao Ye looked at Sikong Nan and said, "Look for the person in the painting. I want to live."
What was drawn on the paper was of course Jiang Liuxue.
This is killing two birds with one stone. Qiao Ye wants to find Jiang Liuxue. Ye Cheng is not big or small. How can Qiao Ye and Lin Ziyi dig out Jiang Liuxue alone? But if they can borrow Sikong Nan's power can greatly increase the probability of finding Jiang Liuxue.
Secondly, if he didn't ask for anything in return, Si Kong Nan would never be able to trust Qiao Ye. Where can there be love for no reason in this world? What's more, it's a man plus a man.
Qiao Ye raised his head and said, "I'll help you deal with the Demon Hall, and you can help me find someone. It's a fair deal."
As Qiao Ye spoke, he slowly retreated toward the rear. The black smoke around him became thicker again, obscuring Qiao Ye's figure.
"Looking forward to the good news!"
Qiao Ye's voice became ethereal, and then completely disappeared into the black smoke.
Sikong Nan was very fast. The moment Qiao Ye disappeared, his figure flashed and came to the place where Qiao Ye disappeared, and then a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
Disappeared!
Really disappeared!
It wasn't just hiding, but just disappearing without a trace. Such a method made Sikong Nan feel a little afraid.
If Qiao Ye had any malicious intentions, he could use this method to assassinate himself. It would be impossible to prevent him!
Looking at the painting in his hand, Sikong Nan's face showed a bit of ferocity, and then he shouted: "Here comes someone..."
Several guards heard the call and came in a hurry. Si Kongnan casually threw the painting to them and said: "Go find the person in the painting!"
…
After a wisp of black smoke dispersed, Qiao Ye had already arrived outside the city lord's mansion.
Qiao Ye is not good at assassination, but he is very good at sneaking in. Nightcrow can monitor all the guard actions in the city lord's palace. Using the drifting black smoke, Qiao Ye can make himself appear in any position, climb over walls, and climb over walls.
The house can use the Nine Palaces Flying Star on the Sky Road.
Unless it is a place with many agencies, Qiao Ye would like to sneak into a place as easy as eating and drinking. Sikong Nan's City Lord's Mansion is no problem for Qiao Ye.
After leaving the city government all the way, Qiao Ye returned to Ruyi Restaurant.
The situation is now very clear. Si Kong Nan is an exploitable point. As long as Si Kong Nan is used to eradicate the Demon Hall, or allows Si Kong Nan to incorporate the Demon Hall, Ye Xuan's Ruyi Restaurant will not close, and the business will even start immediately.
It will get better, and the old customers will definitely come back.
At that time, Qiao Ye and Lin Ziyi will be able to retire with success.
Of course, this matter is not urgent yet and can be delayed for a few more days.
First of all, Qiao Ye has now found something more important to do. He needs to find a way to dig out Jiang Liuxue. This can be done with the help of Si Kongnan. With the power of the city lord's palace, there should be no problem in finding someone to leave him alive.
Interrogate him, or take him directly to Wuyu.
As for how to return to Wuyu, that's not a problem. Qiao Ye has the Sky-breaking Pestle.
Of course, Qiao Ye also has to spend some time to continue collecting information and get something to bring back to Wuyu.
These are actually used to evaluate whether the Demon Realm will pose a threat to the Martial Realm. With the Sky-breaking Pestle, the Martial Realm can travel through various realms long ago, so why not send people?
It's very simple. The Sky-Breaking Pestle will be weakened after one use. If you want to cross domains, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it a few times. Secondly, if there is no conflict between the domains and there is no danger to each other, then each can do its own thing.
It has no impact. The reason why Wuyu and Lingyu have been at war for years is because they are separated by a layer of separation.
But since Qiao Ye and Lin Ziyi appeared in the Demon Realm by chance, of course they couldn't waste such an opportunity. They still had to collect the information that should be collected.
Secondly, Qiao Ye still needs some days of training, and his current condition has not been completely restored. If he wants to use the Sky-breaking Pestle, he is obviously asking for death. He also has to deal with the Demon Hall. Qiao Ye also hopes that his condition can be better, and
Taking advantage of this time, Si Kong Nan could also look for Jiang Liu Xue. After all, even if he was the city lord, Qiao Ye couldn't expect Si Kong Nan to find Jiang Liu Xue in one night.
In the midst of her thoughts, Qiao Ye returned to Ruyi Restaurant. After entering the room, she looked at Lin Ziyi lying on her side on the bed, and covered her with a blanket. Then she made the floor and sat down cross-legged with her back against a wall.
After that, he entered a state of meditation and practice.
After a moment, Lin Ziyi opened her eyes and smiled, wrapped the blanket tightly around her body, turned over, and closed her eyes again.
