Under the city of Wutong.
It was already late, and almost at this time, two figures suddenly appeared under the city gate. Lu Yun and Zhao Yueyao were walking together.
After seeing the city gate was closed, Zhao Yueyao shouted loudly: "Open the door!"
"I am Saint Zhao Yueyao"
As she spoke, Zhao Yueyao directly took out her token. However, it was impossible to see clearly at such a late hour. However, when the soldiers guarding the city saw that it was the saint, they opened the door without hesitation.
How could he not see that it was a saint?
Just like that, after the city gate was opened, Zhao Yueyao breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Lu Yun who was standing aside. "Alright, go in. You are safe in the city now. I will never attack you, but I can't guarantee that I will assassinate you."
"After all, we in the Miao Kingdom also have many experts, and they also carry out assassination operations!"
"Even if he knows what you said, so what? I can just tell him to shut up. After all, there are many people I trust."
Lu Yun smiled calmly and spread his hands. "I don't care. If you really want to assassinate me, you can. But even before I die, I will make this matter known to everyone."
Zhao Yueyao ignored her and the two of them went their separate ways after they walked in.
She actually wanted to follow him to see where Lu Yun was living. How could he be so secretive? Their people had been searching for him for so long but couldn't find him. But after thinking about it, she decided not to. What if he found him? She couldn't do anything about it, nor could she follow him.
Zhao Yueyao's mood was really complicated. She loved and hated this guy. She didn't know where the love came from. She felt a special feeling when she saw Lu Yun.
At this time, in the house where Lu Yun was temporarily living, Ye Jiajia and the others all looked very anxious, even though they said that they would be able to return safely tomorrow and there would be no problem.
But I still wondered, isn't it just to go and see a hidden treasure? Why hasn't there been any news for so long? Could something have happened? What if he didn't get back in time?
Ye Jiajia added fuel to the fire and wished she could rush out of the city gate to find Lu Yun and see whether he was dead or alive.
But now the city gates are tightly closed. If they force their way out, they may be able to do so, but they are afraid that the officers and soldiers will intercept them and expose all their secrets.
It was already very difficult for them to find such a temporary residence. If they were exposed because of their impulsiveness, Lu Yun would definitely scold them if he came back.
I can only wait anxiously like this, and pray silently in my heart that he must be fine, that he will be able to return safely, and that he will bring them a surprise. It must be like this!
When they were all unable to sleep and worried about this matter, there was suddenly a noise outside the door and Ye Jiajia immediately became alert.
No way? Are there any more soldiers coming at this time?
She seemed very cautious, fearing that something unexpected would happen.
Just then a familiar voice sounded outside, "It's me, open the door quickly."
When they heard Lu Yun's voice, they all breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't expect that he really came back.
Lu Yun is back! Really back!
Ye Jiajia was very excited. She quickly opened the door and when she saw the familiar face, she hugged him and said aggrievedly.
"What's wrong with you? You just came back now. I thought you ran into something. You made us all very worried."
"The city gates are now closed. How did you get back? Or were you already back in the city a long time ago, but something unexpected happened?"
Lu Yun smiled lightly, "No, I just came back now, how could anything happen in the city?"
At this moment, the other women also rushed over, and when they saw the familiar figure, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, they all looked very nervous just now, fearing that something might happen to Lu Yun.
Wang Yanran also came forward at this moment, sniffing, suddenly a little surprised, "Why is there something wrong? Why do you smell like a woman? Where did you meet a woman?"
"Huh?" Lu Yun, what are you so surprised about? Can you smell this? Zhao Yueyao does have a very unique fragrance, but it shouldn't be smelled so quickly.
Wang Yanran really has a dog nose. Just like the last time she was in the palace, she said that the smell was a little wrong.
"I... to tell you the truth, when I went in to search for this treasure, I suddenly ran into the Saint Zhao Yueyao. She had been following me the whole time, and I didn't have time to notice."
"Oh, if I hadn't brought the Grandmaster Elixir with me, I would have been killed by that Saint Lady."
Hearing this, all the girls were shocked. No wonder he didn't come back so soon.
That's because I met the saint.
This grandmaster is very powerful, and they can naturally understand that.
"So, you're not injured?"
"No! I have this Grandmaster Elixir, and that Saint Lady can't touch me at all."
"And when I came back, the city gate was closed, so the saint opened the door for me."
"Don't worry, even though she's alive now, I can make her behave well and she won't harass us. We're safe in Wutong City."
"That's good."
Shangguan Feng'er also stepped forward, frowning, "Why do I always feel that something particularly strange has happened between you two? Otherwise, this saint girl wouldn't listen to you so obediently."
Lu Yun thought to himself that it was because he was too powerful that the saint surrendered to him.
"These are all trivial matters. As long as I'm safe, isn't that enough?"
"Alright, alright, let's go in."
After they walked into the house, Lu Yun also took out the sheepskin map he had obtained.
"This is the final reward of my trip. I thought there was something inside, but it turns out to be just a parchment scroll."
"But this parchment clearly records a location: the Death Triangle."
"That is, on this side of the ocean. We must go west and reach the ocean to obtain the real treasure of our Great Qin royal family."
"We have to plan our route carefully these days."
"This time we have a final destination. Heading to the Western Kingdom will not only allow us to survive, but we may even have a chance to make a comeback."
"The treasures of my Great Qin must be beyond imagination!"
"Okay... There's no rush anyway. As long as Wutong City is safe, that's fine."
