The owner of this inn is also interesting. I guess the information about her has already been turned into jade slips and presented to the distinguished guests in the No. 1 and No. 2 courtyards above, right?
Thinking of this, Xiang Sheng smiled slightly, and his spiritual consciousness fell on the two words "Lü Yue".
Lu Yue lived in the room that cost 500 spirit stones a day for three months. It seemed that Lu Yushan's family wealth had recovered a lot after she robbed him last time.
Actually, Lu Yue and her hadn't seen each other for a hundred years. The last time they met was two hundred years ago, when she ran into her by chance while searching for the Yuantai in Guijian.
At that time, because the Lu Kingdom was destroyed, Lu Yue did not dare to reveal his real name, so he could only call himself Gong Yue and join the Tianyan Sect to survive.
Today, the little girl who couldn't hide her temper at all has achieved the Nascent Soul stage and has the confidence to walk in the world of cultivation. She has been able to restore her surname Lu, which is great.
Xiang Sheng was relieved, but the smile disappeared from his face.
As soon as she thought about it, a green spirit dagger flew out from the blood ring and landed in her palm.
She lowered her eyes and stared blankly.
Two hundred years.
It had been so long since she and Lu Zhu met...
…
At the same time, in the east of Nishida Castle.
As soon as Yuan Jing returned home, she left everyone else and went to find her father, the head of the family, and told him about how Taoist Huang Quan blocked their way and how he and "Sister Li" led away the powerful enemy and saved people.
"Father, although Sister Li is confident of escaping, she will surely be seriously injured even if she manages to escape from the hands of Taoist Huang Quan. You must send someone to pick her up as soon as possible!"
"Qing'er, please be patient."
Yuan Zhiping said calmly, "This has already happened. It's useless for you to worry. Fellow Daoist Li saved you, so I will naturally not ignore it.
But the most urgent matter is the Sky Realm Stone."
As soon as these words were spoken, Yuan Jing's face changed suddenly.
She also knew in her heart that what her father said was right.
Transporting the Sky Realm Stone was not a deal between the Yuan family and them, but a task secretly entrusted to them by the city lord.
However, if his father escorted him personally, it would inevitably attract the attention of other forces in the city and cause too much noise.
So after several discussions, the Yuan family finally decided that she would go out for a trip and secretly escort the Sky Realm Stone back.
This idea was also approved by the city lord.
Everything had been going smoothly for her, but she didn't expect that something like this would happen when she got home.
If the city lord gets angry after finding out, the Yuan family will probably be in trouble.
As soon as Yuan Zhiping saw his daughter's face, he knew what she was worried about. He smiled and comforted her:
“This is not your fault. If the Sky Realm Stone was really snatched away by Taoist Huang Quan, it would not be so easy for him to take action.
As long as your father and I speak to the city lord immediately, we will be able to recapture the Sky Realm Stone and the disaster will be averted."
Yuan Jing knew that her father was trying to put it in a positive way, so she didn't expose it. She forced a smile, bowed, and left.
After watching his daughter leave, Yuan Zhiping did not rush to find the mayor of Xitian City, but instead sent a message to Lingshan.
Not long after, Ling Shan came to the study. His face looked extremely bad, but he still respectfully called out "Master."
"Qing'er told me everything that happened on the road."
Yuan Zhiping's tone was calm, and no emotion could be heard. "Regarding that female cultivator surnamed Li, tell me everything in detail again."
Ling Shan was shocked when he heard this. He told Xiang Sheng about his encounter with him, and after a moment's hesitation, he could not help but say:
"Master, I'm not trying to sow discord. You know the eldest lady's temperament; she never gets too close to outsiders.
But when he met the female cultivator surnamed Li, he was like a possessed person. Not only was he extremely kind to her, but he also behaved very affectionately, as if they were real sisters. It was really strange."
When Yuan Zhiping heard this, he frowned slightly.
Is it a charm to attract people to you? But Lingshan and the others were not affected.
Moreover, it is too unreasonable for a casual cultivator who is only in the early stage of Jindan to snatch things and escape under the nose of Huangquan Taoist who is in the late stage of Yuanying.
It's normal for Lingshan to have some doubts.
He was silent for a moment, and finally sighed.
"No matter what, she saved your lives. That's a fact. Huang Quan Daoist's men never leave anyone alive. If she hadn't stepped forward, how could you have survived?"
"What the Patriarch said is absolutely right."
Ling Shan nodded repeatedly, then showed a bitter look on his face, "Actually, after being scolded by the young lady, I have come to my senses.
Although the female cultivator surnamed Li was eccentric, she had no intention of harming anyone. My repeated slander of her was definitely not my husband's doing."
"That's good."
Yuan Zhiping nodded slightly. "I'll leave the mission of going out of the city to search for this girl to you. Leave as soon as possible. If you can find her and bring her back, Jing'er will forgive you."
Ling Shan was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately shook off his dejected look and clasped his hands together, saying, "I obey your orders!"
