Every time Mrs. Shen wanted to find out something from Ling Xuewei, she was always blocked by her.
Even Aunt Zhen is the same. This woman is very vigilant. The more she is, the more she feels there is something ghostly about her.
In the following days, Grandma Zhen tried to attack Ling Xuewei several times, but Ling Xuewei dodged her every time. Once or twice was enough, but if she did it too many times, she would have to arouse suspicion.
She's definitely found it.
Mrs. Shen was so angry that her teeth itched.
But what puzzled her was why Ling Xuewei didn't make it clear to her? Even the master never mentioned it.
Naturally, she would not think that Ling Xuewei was so kind, and maybe she was brewing a bigger conspiracy.
She couldn't see through Ling Xuewei, but she felt threatened like never before.
Coupled with the fact that the people she sent to find out the information had not yet returned the news, she became even more wary of Ling Xuewei.
For now, we can only maintain superficial peace.
When she finds an opportunity, she will immediately eradicate it!
At this time, Gu Hao came back.
"What are you talking about?"
"We were talking about the bonfire banquet in the evening. I invited Miss Ye to join me."
"Oh? Miss Ye, are you going?"
Gu Hao turned to the side where Ling Xuewei was, "I heard that many aristocratic families in the city will be there tonight, and the city lord will also be there."
"City Lord?"
"That's right, the lord of Tianshui City is Yan Beisheng."
Ling Xuewei's lowered eyes flashed.
"Yan Beisheng? Could it be that person from the Yan family?" Shen was stunned.
"That's right."
"The Yan family can be considered a famous family in the Eastern Territory now. I heard that he was one of the first people to follow His Excellency Jiuzun. During the war, he became famous all over the world with his outstanding military exploits. Not only did he succeed the head of the Yan family,
, and even took over the position of Lord of Tianshui City..."
Yan Beisheng...
Ling Xuewei chewed on this name in her heart.
It sounded familiar. She seemed to have heard it several times before.
Soon, she remembered that she and Ye Moyan had gone down there to inspect and met this person. Later, they met him a few times at several banquets, but they had never spoken to him in person.
At that time, this man seemed to be just a military general, following Ge Lao. He looked like a middle-aged man and looked very gentle and elegant.
As for any more contact, it will be gone.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for three years, he suddenly became the Lord of Tianshui City.
"However, although he is the lord of the city, he does not hold real power. The most important thing now is military power. Tianshui City is the largest fortress in the Eastern Region, with more than 30,000 soldiers stationed there, and the one who really holds real power is..."
Gu Hao stopped and looked around, knowing that the walls had ears, so he changed the topic.
"How is Miss Ye feeling these days? Did you remember anything?"
Gu Hao asked.
Ling Xuewei shook her head.
"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you can't remember. I have already sent people to inquire in the city. I believe there will be news soon." Gu Hao didn't care, he continued, "Tianshui City is too big, and it will take time to inquire.
But don’t worry, girl, I promised you I would take you home, and I will definitely do it."
"Thank you, Ancient Sect Master."
"Miss Ye, you're welcome..."
Mrs. Shen couldn't help but feel sour in her heart as she watched the conversation between the two of them as if no one was watching, especially the scene where all the master's eyes fell on Ling Xuewei.
"Master, tonight is a feast, and Miss Ye is only wearing this outfit... It will make people think that our sect has lost etiquette. Why don't you let the girl come with me to buy some hair and clothes, so that you can dress up and look good when you come?"
It shows the style of our Haotian Sect, and moreover..."
Mrs. Shen looked over with a smile, "Young girl is so pretty, wouldn't it be wasted if she doesn't dress up well?"
Ling Xuewei smiled, and Mrs. Shen turned to him, "Master, what do you think?"
Gu Hao's eyes fell here and flickered slightly, "That's right, then there is Mrs. Lao."
"As your wife, I should share your worries."
After meal.
Mrs. Shen took Ling Xuewei out.
I went to two clothing stores and bought several sets of clothes and headwear, each of which was extremely gorgeous and extravagant. These alone cost more than a dozen amethyst stones.
But Mr. Shen paid the bill directly without blinking an eye.
"Miss Ye, there is no need to have any psychological burden. The girl is now a member of our Haotian Sect. Going out will naturally represent the face of our Haotian Sect. These are all essential."
Shen's words revealed the arrogance and superiority that her position deserves.
Originally, she thought she would see Ling Xuewei angry or humble, but she didn't expect... Ling Xuewei's expression remained calm, as if she didn't hear what she said at all.
Mrs. Shen was so embarrassed that she became angry.
Ling Xuewei was sitting in the rest area nearby, eating snacks and looking at the street outside the window with a sad expression.
However, a dozen amethyst stones may be an astronomical number for ordinary people, but for Ling Xuewei, who has a huge "gold-swallowing machine" - space, the crystal stones consumed each time are calculated by boxes.
That's nothing at all.
"Miss Ye, do you want to buy anything else?"
Mrs. Shen came over and sat down. At this time, a group of people came in from outside the door.
There were probably a dozen or so people in brocade and splendid attire.
The leader of the man was dressed in purple clothes and wore a purple unicorn jade pendant around his waist. He was tall and tall, especially his eyes, which looked inexplicably sinister. Behind him were several guards with strong backs and sturdy waists.
The momentum is compelling.
He hugged him on the left and right, and two stunning and enchanting women nestled in his arms, twisting their bodies from time to time like snakes. The man turned his head and joked with them a few words. As soon as they entered, the shop became silent for a moment.
"What does your distinguished guest need?"
The shopkeeper came to greet me personally.
"Go, take whatever you want, I will pay for it today!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
The two women kissed him seductively on the face and walked over in a swaying manner. The shopkeeper immediately burst into laughter and hurriedly called two clerks to serve them, while he personally led the man in the rich clothes to a private seat to rest.
Ling Xuewei looked at the approaching person with twinkling eyes.
I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here.
The prince of Ziluan Empire and the Duke of Nanfeng.
"Is this His Highness the Crown Prince of Ziluan Kingdom?"
"Yes, I didn't expect to see the true face of Prince Ziluan here."
"I heard that the old king is seriously ill now, and now all the power of the Ziluan Empire is under his control, and his power is at its peak!"
"The prince is of noble birth, is supported by the largest family in the Ziluan Empire, and has a prominent status. It seems that the naivety of the Ziluan Empire is about to change..."
"Isn't there another Nan Fengyan?"
Just as he finished speaking, a cold light suddenly flashed through!
Along with a scream, the speaker's arm was stabbed with a bloody hole by a dagger!
Nanfeng Jue played with the knife in his hand, smiling coldly, "If you dare to mention that evil beast in front of me, I think you don't want to live anymore!"
"Your Highness, please spare your life! Your Highness, please spare your life..."
The two people who spoke quickly knelt down, kowtowed and begged for mercy.
