"Thank you very much, Elder Zhong. Also, these two maids are pretty good. What do you think, Elder Zhong?"
"Hold each other and roll away!"
"Hahaha……"
Putting away the two gold cards, the three masters laughed heartily. At this time, the pretty faces of the two abandoned maids were as pale as paper, with no blood color anymore. They were sandwiched between the arms by the three masters, like playthings, and came through the back door.
left.
However, not long after the third head of the family left, a steward came to report that the second lady was here.
"Second Miss?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, his old face turned red from suppressing it, and with a click, the jade bottle in his hand also broke. Second Miss? Didn't he say that the girl was dead? Damn it!
…
The attic was magnificently decorated, and there were all kinds of valuable furs. Luo Chen clicked his tongue. He didn't expect that the Zhong family had such a large property in Baiyun City.
"Is there anyone you like?"
At this time, Zhong Li had changed into a fur skirt and was looking at Luo Chen with a smile.
Luo Chen waved his hand, the furs here were all ridiculously expensive. They were not wearing clothes, they were clearly wearing gold!
"Are there any ordinary commoners?"
"This young master is joking."
Although I don't know Luo Chen's identity, since he came with the second lady, it's not easy to come here.
"Okay, Manager Wei, please go down first. Is the Great Elder here?"
"Report to Second Young Sister, First Elder..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw an old man slowly walking down the second floor with a kind smile.
"Girl Li, has your journey been smooth?"
The great elder had a smile in his mouth, Zhong Li stepped forward and bowed respectfully, and then briefly told the story about the furs being robbed when he met Baiyun Valley on the way.
"Baiyun Village? Huh! You are so brave, you even dare to rob my Zhong family's goods! Girl Li, are you injured?"
The great elder had an angry look on his face, and a momentum surged involuntarily from his body. Although it was only for a moment, it was still suffocating!
Luo Chen's heart aroused a storm. The previous momentum was too terrifying. He did not expect that the old man in front of him, who seemed to be in his final years, actually had such unfathomable cultivation!
The previous aura definitely surpassed that of a four-star one! Could it be that the old man in front of me was a five-star powerful soul fighting master?
Luo Chen was stunned. He originally thought that the Zhong family was just a small business family, but now it seemed that the Zhong family was far from as simple as he imagined.
The already declining aristocratic family actually still has such a powerful person in the family. Oh my god, how terrifying must the Zhong family be in its heyday?
Just when he was thinking wildly, Butler Wei smiled and made an invitation gesture to Luo Chen. Upon seeing this, Luo Chen shrugged, knowing that Zhong Liyu had something to talk to, so he followed wisely.
Then Butler Wei went down to drink tea.
There was tea and various snacks in the room, but the atmosphere was a bit weird.
The maids in charge of serving in the private room kept exchanging glances secretly. Although they did so very covertly, Luo Chen still noticed them.
There is a problem!
"Sister, the room is a little stuffy. Can I go out and get some fresh air?"
Luo Chen smiled sweetly at the maid who poured tea.
The serving maid didn't speak, she just kept pouring tea into the cup without replying, with a cold look in her eyes.
In this weird atmosphere, time passed by minute by second. After burning the incense, Luo Chen stood up suddenly and was about to walk out of the private room. But at this moment, the maid who had lowered her head and said nothing came to him.
One step blocked him in front of him. Beyond his speed, he was definitely a soul master!
"Where are you going?"
The maid smiled, but the smile fell into Luo Chen's eyes, and it penetrated the skin a little.
"I drank too much tea and wanted to go out for a while."
Maid: "There is a chamber pot in the room."
"I want to go to the big one!"
Maid: "There is also a toilet."
Luo Chen: "..."
He was speechless. Each of these maids had extraordinary skills. They had obviously been trained. Their steps were uniform. Even the frequency of the soul power vibrations in their bodies was exactly the same. Judging from the soul power fluctuations that had erupted before, at least there was
The cultivation level of a two-star soul fighting master.
There is indeed something wrong with the Zhong family’s attic!
These maids imprisoned themselves in this room, and they must have ulterior secrets. Now Zhong Li is discussing with the elder to plan how to conquer Baiyun Village. If the elder of the Zhong family really has an affair with the Baiyun Village,
If there is collusion, then Zhong Li will be in danger!
Here, the great elder doesn't dare to mess around, but once he leaves the city, it will be hard to say.
Although there were only two maids in the private room on the surface, I felt that there were two more maids hidden in the secret. It was interesting, and they really looked up to me.
What makes him a little confused is why he is imprisoned here. Even if the Zhong family elder sees his cultivation level, he is just a two-star soul fighting master. He may be surprised, but
Even if I think about it, I wouldn't take it to heart.
Apart from anything else, there are a lot of two-star soul fighting masters in this attic, but they are definitely not a minority.
No matter what, let's leave here first. If there is really no other way, then we can only kill!
The soul power in his body began to mobilize, but just when Luo Chen was about to take action, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open.
"Second Miss."
The door was pushed open and Zhong Li nodded towards the private room. Under Luo Chen's surprised gaze, the maids lowered their heads and respectfully exited the private room.
"Sister Zhong Li, are you okay?"
"You brat, your tone sounds like you really hope something will happen to me?"
The solemnity on his face melted away, and Zhong Li lost his temper.
"Eh? Xiao Chenzi, you are so awesome. You've finished eating? You've also eaten your sister's share?"
There was not a single pastry left on the plate. Luo Chen was a little embarrassed. Staying in this room was quite boring, and he was not allowed to go out. Moreover, the atmosphere in the private room was so depressing. It was just a matter of eating something to calm down. Besides, it was so good.
If you don't eat the pastries, you won't eat them for free.
"Sister Zhong Li, there is indeed something wrong with the elder, and Manager Wei is not a good person either."
At this time, there were only two of them left in the private room, Luo Chen complained.
"Manager Wei? What happened to him?"
Zi Gu poured a cup of tea, and just as he was about to moisten his throat, he saw that Luo Chen was hesitant to speak, and asked out of curiosity: "What, is there something wrong with this tea?"
"No, there's something wrong with this cup."
"Is there something wrong with the cup?"
"That's the cup I used."
Luo Chen scratched his head in embarrassment. Zhong Li's eyebrows stood up, and he grabbed Luo Chen's ears and said angrily: "Okay, little Chenzi, you are very courageous. You even dare to despise your sister. I'm sorry."
beat."
Luo Chen was in pain and quickly begged for mercy. After a few words of flattery, Zhong Li gave up.
"Please tell me first that there is a problem with Manager Wei?"
After taking a sip of tea, he put down the cup in his hand and looked at Luo Chen in confusion.
Speaking of this, Luo Chen became a little angry, so he roughly told the story of his being under house arrest.
"It's over? That's it?"
Angrily, he rolled his eyes at Luo Chen, tapped his index finger on Luo Chen's forehead, rolled his eyes and said, "If that's what you're talking about, then you've wronged Manager Wei. This is what I mean. Don't worry, Manager Wei."
They are my people.”
"Ah? Sister Zhong Li, why is this?"
Luo Chen scratched his head in confusion.
"Sister, aren't I thinking about your safety? You little heartless one, are you going to explode if I come one step too late?"
Luo Chen was speechless. He felt something in his heart and asked tentatively: "Sister Zhong Li means...that the Great Elder really has a problem?"
"It's hard to say whether there is a problem or not. It's just that the Great Elder is a very thoughtful person. However, my father said back then that the Great Elder is not a person who can endure loneliness. I believe in my father's vision."
Speaking of this, she looked at Luo Chen with a smile, which made his heart tremble.
"Sister Zhong Li, can we discuss something?"
"explain."
"Can you please stop looking at me like that? I'm scared."
When he said this, he also deliberately shrank his neck.
"Afraid? I think you are quite brave. To be honest, what happened that night?"
"ah?"
"Stop pretending to me, you really treat me like a sister. I'm an idiot. You are really good. Twenty-six bandits, including three two-star soul masters, were all lost in your hands."
Luo Chen sighed in his heart, knowing that he couldn't hide it from her.
"Okay, forget it if you don't want to say it, but little Luochen, don't mess around here. Sister, I know you are very powerful, but you don't want to get involved in this matter.
"What do you mean, sister?"
"The Great Elder's cultivation is unfathomable. He has been living in seclusion here for these years. Even my sister is a little unsure about what level of cultivation it has reached now. I only know that as early as thirty years ago, the Great Elder had broken through to the sixth level.
star."
"Pfft~"
The tea in his mouth spurted out. Luo Chen's scalp exploded and he jumped off the chair. What? Six...six stars? Not five stars?
"What, are you scared?"
"No...no, Sister Zhong Li, couldn't the Zhong family have been a first-class family before?"
The corner of Luo Chen's mouth twitched a bit, and he subconsciously tried to test it.
"no."
"Huh~ That's good, I thought..."
"My Zhong family was once a noble of the royal city when I was in my grandfather's generation. According to the Tiandou Empire's aristocratic families, I can barely be considered a special class."
Plop!
Luo Chen absolutely fell.
"Sister Zhong Li, isn't Licheng one of the top ten royal cities in the Tiandou Empire?"
"Why, you don't know?"
The hierarchy of counties and cities in the Tiandou Empire is extremely strict.
The counties and cities of different levels are subordinate to each other, and under the Tiandou Imperial City are the ten royal cities!
The ten royal cities are divided into first- to third-class cities! For example, Baiyun City is a first- and third-class city! It is also called a third-class city. (To be continued)
