Chapter 146: First Visit to the City Lord's Mansion



"It seems like I heard it a long time ago, but I can't remember it now."

"Don't monks have good memories? How could they forget?"

Yichang rolled his eyes at her. "What kind of memory is that? I've lived for tens of thousands of years. If I remembered everything that happened in the past, wouldn't my brain be blown up? Some of the less important things are cleared out regularly."

"Then think carefully. This woman came to me specifically to ask me to bring out the mirror, which means that the mirror must be extraordinary. But why didn't the woman go and get it herself?"

He used his magic to bewitch her as soon as they met. Shen Yizi didn't think this woman's character was good.

If the woman could get the Purple Treasure Mirror directly, she would have taken it long ago and would not have cared whether the thing was a treasure in the city lord's private vault.

But now she came to her in a roundabout way. There was only one possibility, that is, she could not get it directly.

City Lord's Mansion.

In the study.

Xie Yun asked someone to guard outside, and he closed the door tightly and stayed inside alone.

He took out the bamboo tube containing the Purple Cloud Butterfly from his sleeve and pulled out the bamboo stopper.

A purple cloud butterfly flew out gracefully and landed on a blank piece of paper hanging on the wall. It flew a circle along a specific trajectory, and its wings scattered dots of bright purple light, like a dream.

The light spots fell on the drawing paper, gradually outlining a figure.

When this process was completed, a peerless beauty suddenly appeared on the drawing paper.

The beauty was wearing a rouge-colored palace dress, with her hair piled high in a bun, and red and green threads, looking very luxurious.

She blinked and came back to life.

Xie Yun bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The person in the painting is Concubine Xie in the palace, Xie Linlang.

Xie Linlang had obtained a fragment of a book by chance a long time ago, called "Qunfang Jue". This is a unique cultivation method.

Using flowers as a furnace and refining the life and essence of the flowers into the body can make your appearance more and more beautiful, and keep you youthful and immortal.

This is simply too tempting for women.

Although "Qunfang Jue" was only a fragment, Xie Linlang still started to practice it resolutely.

In the beginning, ordinary flowers could meet her needs for cultivation, but later, as her cultivation level improved, ordinary flowers could no longer satisfy her needs.

Only those precious or even rare flowers will do.

Originally, she was just a concubine's daughter from a branch of the Xie family. Later, when she entered the palace, her position was only a mediocre concubine.

With the help of "Qunfang Jue", her beauty became more and more beautiful day by day, and she also exuded a natural fragrance.

She carefully designed a scene to meet the emperor, and later he really slept with him. After that, she was promoted day by day and achieved the position of imperial concubine.

At this point, even the Xie family could not ignore her.

She took the opportunity to curry favor with her family, and her family was willing to support her and help her deal with some difficult matters.

It is mutually beneficial for both parties.

One of the tasks is to help her collect and find rare flowers from all over the place.

For this reason, all the members of the Xie family scattered across the country received this order, and Xie Yun was just an insignificant one among them.

The Purple Cloud Butterfly was specially raised by Concubine Xie to help her quickly find rare flowers.

Xie Yun had not been very helpful in this matter before, which had caused dissatisfaction among his family members.

This time, he reported it immediately after discovering Yu Liuli. He didn't expect that the imperial concubine would pay so much attention to her and come in person.

Xie Yun felt deeply honored, and at the same time, he secretly made up his mind that no matter how much it cost, he must get the Jade Liuli this time.

Concubine Xie learned about the situation from him and gave the same instructions.

Coming from such a long distance was very exhausting, so Concubine Xie said a few words and then withdrew.

Xie Yun didn't raise his head until the drawing paper turned pure white again.

At this time, a voice came from outside the door, "Master, Miss Shen is here."

Hearing that Shen Yizhi had arrived, Xie Yun immediately opened the door and said, "Please let him in."

At the same time, he straightened his clothes and went out to greet him.

"Miss Shen." After entering the hall, Xie Yun greeted Shen Yizhi first, then looked at Qing Bao who was sitting on her, and smiled kindly, "Young Master is here too?"

"Qingbao, call Uncle Xie." Shen Yizhi shook Qingbao's little hand.

Xie Yun waved his hand, "At my age, I can be Qingbao's grandfather."

Qing Bao then took the opportunity to call out Grandpa. Xie Yun felt comfortable all over when he heard the crisp, babyish voice. He thought that it would be great if that bastard Xie Zhenlin could give him such a lovely grandson someday.

However, thinking of his own son's character, he had to suppress this idea regretfully.

"Miss Shen, have you had a meal?" Xie Yun asked again.

Shen Yi knew: "I have used it before coming here."

Xie Yun didn't waste any words, "In that case, I will take Miss Shen directly to the warehouse."

Shen Yizhi followed Xie Yun all the way to the warehouse located in the southwest of the mansion.

There was no one guarding outside the warehouse. Xie Yun took out a token and pressed it into a groove on the door, and the door opened.

It turns out that a token is required to enter.

Moreover, Shen Yizhi could sense that although Xie Yun had no cultivation, his martial arts skills were not weak.

To be honest, if a fight really breaks out, a cultivator in the early stages of Qi Refining is no better than a martial arts master. No wonder that woman didn't dare to come directly to the door.

At the same time, she also sensed that there were several auras hidden around the warehouse, stationed in various places according to certain directions, faintly forming a formation, attacking when they united and defending when they retreated.

Among these people, the leader was at the third level of Qi Refining, one level higher than that woman.

Xie Yun made a gesture to invite him in. Shen Yizi scanned the warehouse with his spiritual sense and did not find any hidden weapons, so he led Qing Bao in and walked in.

The warehouse is quite large, as big as a small library. Rows of tall shelves are arranged in an orderly manner, with various items displayed on them in different categories.

In this environment, Yichang was like a fish in water. Without Shen Yizhi's instructions, he automatically activated his innate treasure hunting skills.

While he was searching, Shen Yizhi also took Qingbao to look at them one by one, sighing in his heart, why were these treasures not hers?

She really wanted to get them all and sell them to the Trial Manual, exchanging them all for points, so that she might not have to worry for a long time.

Yi Chang urged her: "Why don't you store all these in the space? Anyway, even if you store them, the city lord won't be able to find them."

"Are you mentally retarded? I came in and my things disappeared the moment I walked in. It would be strange if he didn't suspect me. I want to continue to live my life here peacefully."
