Chapter 61 I want to collect some payment from her
Xie Chengjin has a strong desire for control, and he sent this guard to follow her. I don't know if it was to keep an eye on her.
But since he was the one who sent them, Xie Yanyu couldn't just drive them away.
Fortunately, she was not going to deliberately hide the matter of Li Xun anymore.
Before she met Li Xun, she hid the matter from Xie Chengjin because she was afraid that he would interfere, which would prevent her and Li Xun from even seeing each other, and all the hard work she had put into getting the jade token would be in vain. But now that they had met, there was no need to hide it anymore. After all, she was going to get engaged to Li Xun, and the matter would sooner or later be revealed to Xie Chengjin.
Therefore, she did not hide anything anymore.
Seeing that the servant wanted to follow her, she took him directly to find Li Xun.
However, when they arrived at Li Xun's residence, they found that the room was empty, and the rooms where Li Xun's attendants lived were also empty. It was clear that they had checked out and left.
She had clearly asked the monster to leave him a message, asking him to wait for her here.
But he didn't listen.
He didn't even want the jade token and left.
Xie Yanyu looked at the empty rooms in front of him.
After a while, she reached into her sleeve pocket and groped again.
Fortunately, before throwing Li Xun out of the window, she took the Tianjian Sect's token from Li Xun.
With this token, she could sense his location even if he left.
She took out the token, injected spiritual power into it, and began to sense Li Xun's location.
But just as he had a little sense of it, before he could fully sense his position, the other side did something unknown and directly cut off the connection with the token.
In an instant, the sensation just now disappeared.
The token suddenly turned into a piece of scrap metal. No matter how much spiritual power was injected into it, it could no longer sense Li Xun's location.
Xie Yanyu had a gloomy face, and his knuckles turned white as he pinched the token. He almost threw it to the ground.

On the other side,
In the magnificent carriage,
Li Xun held onto the wall of the car and vomited blood for a while before finally stopping.
He forcibly severed the connection between himself and the token, so he was injured.
At this time, his chest was heaving, his face was a little pale, and there was a little blood on the corner of his lips. His originally aggressive and sharp appearance was no longer sharp, and he looked very weak.
Seeing him like this, the men beside him whispered, "Master, are you okay?"
Li Xun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "Nothing."
The subordinate said, "Why are you doing this? You've cut off the connection with the token to prevent her from sensing your whereabouts, and you've been injured in vain. The injuries you sustained when you came back from her must not have fully healed yet..."
"Shut up," Li Xun interrupted him directly, saying sinisterly, "I'm just a blind man. Do you really think I'm so easy to control? I want to see how else she can find me after this."
The subordinates really shut up at this time.
He looked at Li Xun's face and felt that Li Xun was quite tough, but he was also very surprised, because he had never seen Li Xun in such a miserable state. It was a bit like he had been beaten up outside and had no power to fight back and could only run away. However, this had never happened before. It was only Li Xun who beat others.
How could a blind man in the Jindan stage force Li Xun into this state?
Although Li Xun didn't say it, his subordinates could feel that Li Xun was very afraid of the blind man.
Even though he said he was going to Xie's house to ask Miss Qingqing for a jade pendant, and then go back to the blind man to get the jade token after getting the jade pendant, he always felt that the fact was that before getting the jade pendant, Li Xun didn't dare to meet the blind man at all.
Thinking of this, the subordinate silently handed Li Xun a cup of tea.
……never mind.
Please pray to the gods that the blind man will not be able to find his owner before he finds Qingqing and gets the jade pendant.

The inn on the outskirts of the city was not too far from the Xie family.
Even without the shrinking technique, the carriage arrived at the Xie family after two hours of driving.
Li Xun usually behaved in a bad way, but not to the point of not caring about anything. Therefore, he did not tell the Xie family right away that he was looking for the adopted daughter of the Xie family. Instead, he made an excuse, saying that he was passing by here and noticed that the seal of the demon world was unstable, so he came to visit the Xie family to see if they needed any help.
The relationship between Tianjian Sect and Xie Family is very weak.
They had no alliance, no grudges, and even didn't have much contact with each other, but they had heard of each other's names.
Now that Li Xun came to visit, although the Xie family was surprised, they still treated him as a guest of honor. They prepared guest rooms and were ready to host a banquet for him in the evening.
Xie Chengjin naturally also received this news.
He and Helan Wei had checked the demon world's seal formation and had now repaired the eye of the formation. He was originally going to go back to the Xie family to prepare some materials to reinforce the seal, but now that Li Xun used this excuse to visit him, he did not stay in the suburbs any longer and took his people back to the Xie family.
On the way back.
Xie Yanyu still rode separately from Xie Chengjin.
The guard still followed her, but this time he did not ride with her, because the previous coachman of the carriage was hired from the inn, and he was going back to the mansion and would not return to the inn anymore, so he could not hire a coachman from the inn again. Therefore, the guard sat outside the carriage to drive the horse, while she sat alone in the carriage.
She originally thought that Xie Chengjin would ride in the same car with Helan Wei, but when she got on the car, she found that Helan Wei was not there.
So she asked the system: Where is Helan Wei?
The system said: [It's at the bottom of the river.]
Xie Yanyu:?
System: [He was seriously injured and passed out. No one brought him out, so he's still lying at the bottom of the river.]
Xie Yanyu: ...
Xie Yanyu didn't know what to say for a moment.
If she didn't know that the system wouldn't lie to her about this, she would really think that the system had made up a weird lie to fool her. Every word it said was quite normal, but when put together into a sentence it was a bit abnormal and a bit absurd.
After a while,
Then she asked again: Didn’t Xie Chengjin get him out?
System: [No.]
Although Xie Chengjin didn't like to meddle in other people's business, Helan Wei fainted at the bottom of the water when he went with him to see the sealing formation. This was not entirely a trivial matter. It was reasonable for Xie Chengjin to go down again and bring the person out. However, after so much time, he actually left him at the bottom of the river and ignored him.
This is not a matter of impoliteness. If you don't know, you would think Xie Chengjin wants him to die.
It's so abnormal that it's a bit unbelievable.
Xie Yanyu couldn't figure it out, but she was too lazy to figure it out, so she asked the system: Will he die?
System: [Not really, just half-dead and unconscious for a while.]
Xie Yanyu only cared about Helan Wei's life or death. After all, if he died, she would not be able to move forward with the plot. Now that she knew he would not die, no matter how miserable he was in the river, it had nothing to do with her. Anyway, when he woke up, he would be able to climb out of the river by himself.
So she didn't ask any more questions.
She was still thinking about Li Xun's escape. Holding the Tianjian Sect token in her hand, she couldn't sense Li Xun's location. She tried every other way but couldn't think of any other way to find him.
After a while, she simply took out the communication talisman and sent a message to the monster: [Are you there?]
The other side replied quickly: [Baby, why did you think of me?] [So happy...]
Xie Yanyu: [Can you help me find someone?]
The monster replied: [Who are you looking for?]
Xie Yanyu: [Li Xun, the leader of the Tianjian Sect, is the one you brought to my room earlier.]
This message was sent out.
There was silence on the other end, and no immediate reply.
Xie Yanyu held the communication talisman and waited for his reply.
But at this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Due to inertia, her body was forced to lean forward, so she instinctively raised her hand to hold the car wall, so she failed to hold the communication talisman and dropped it to the ground.
She was about to bend down to pick it up, but the next second, the front door of the carriage was opened.
When Xie Yanyu heard the noise, he looked up and saw the servant bending down and entering the carriage.
The car was a little dark, with the light behind him, and the outline of his face was particularly clear, but his expression was a little obscure.
He looked at her without saying anything.
Xie Yanyu noticed that his eyes were slightly red, giving him a feeling of being aggrieved.
She paused: "What's wrong?"
Shen Lang wanted to ask her why she was still looking for Li Xun, why she was looking for Li Xun again,
But he couldn't ask, he couldn't ask using the monster's identity, nor on the communication talisman, and he couldn't ask as a servant, but he really wanted to stop the car and look at her. Jealousy was about to tear him apart, tear his heart in two, but he found that he couldn't say no to her either.
He stared at her for a long time, then suddenly moved closer to her.
The distance between them was very close. Perhaps because she was caught off guard, he felt that she was stunned for a moment. Because she wanted to speak, her lips were slightly open. The color of her lips was very light, but she looked very soft.
His breathing became heavier. He couldn't refuse her, but he wanted to get some reward. He wanted to lower his head and kiss her without hesitation, sucking/kissing her lips into a bright red, so he lowered his head slightly again.
But in the end, his lips stayed a palm's distance from her lips.
No kiss.
He raised his hand and pressed her lips.
He pressed gently a few times, rubbing her pale lips until they turned slightly red, as if they had been kissed. Then he used a little spiritual power to touch the corner of her lips. "There is a steep and rugged mountain road ahead. I am worried that the bumps will make you uncomfortable. I am casting an anti-motion sickness spell on you. This will make you feel better later."
Too close.
He almost enveloped her.
Xie Yanyu tilted his head slightly to avoid his hand, then looked outside again and saw that there was indeed a mountain road in the distance.
She touched the corner of her lips: "...You came in just to cast a spell on me?"
Chen Lang stood up and distanced himself from her. The fingertips that had touched her lips were burning.
He blatantly placed the finger between his lips, his pupils shrinking for a moment with pleasure, but his tone was so pitiful: "Well, Miss, please don't think I'm annoying. I promised you, sir, that I would take good care of you."
Xie Yanyu: "..."
Xie Yanyu didn't find him annoying,
She just felt that she shouldn't be too close to him. Maybe it was because they had touched each other before, but she would always subconsciously pay attention to his chest and lips. His posture was too frank and gentle, and she felt uneasy, which was rare for her. She didn't know where to put her attention.
She was quiet for a while, then suddenly changed the subject.
She took out a small pearl-like ball from her sleeve and said, "Oh, right. I forgot to ask you before. You put this in my sleeve, right?"
This small ball is filled with spiritual energy.
The moment Xie Yanyu touched it from his sleeve, he knew that it was the spiritual power ball at the center of the demon world's seal formation.
She was originally still wondering who gave it to her, but then she heard the system say that Helan Wei had fainted, so it could only have been given to her by this servant.
Shen Lang paused, then smiled: "Yes. Do you like it, Miss?"
Xie Yanyu: "I like it."
She said, "Thank you."
*
After the servant left the carriage, Xie Yanyu put the spirit ball back into his sleeve pocket.
She sat in the car for a while before she received a reply from the monster, who agreed to help her find Li Xun.
Seeing that he took so long to reply, she thought he was not happy, so she asked again: "I can pay you, what do you want?"
She thought he would make some demands.
However, soon,
She received his reply again.
He said: [I've already received my payment, baby.]
Xie Yanyu was confused.
She didn't even know what she paid him.
But since he said so, she didn't ask any more questions.
*
It was already evening when we returned to Xie's house.
A banquet was held in the outer house, and Xie Yanyu only then realized that a distinguished guest had come to the mansion.
Her mind was not on this, her thoughts were all on Li Xun, so she didn't ask anyone who the distinguished guest was.
It was not until I sat down at the table and looked up that I saw the distinguished guest sitting lazily at the head of the table.
Li Xun.
On the other side,
Li Xun also seemed to notice her "gaze".
He held the wine bottle and glanced at her nonchalantly.
The next second,
He sat up straight suddenly, his hands trembled, and he almost crushed the wine bottle.
