"There's poison in the wine...don't drink it..."
She put her head close to Ling Wangqing, using the misalignment to make the maid beside her mistakenly think that the two of them were being intimate and whispering in each other's ears.
The corners of her charming eyes swept over the maids around her, and they hurriedly left with their heads lowered. When they were the only two left at the table, Shen Wuyou slowly stood up and continued to murmur into his ear with her blood-red lips:
"The city lord wants to kill us, we are exposed..."
Shen Wuyou was really drunk. The reason why she could eat so heartily without worry was not only because she understood the city lord, but also because she trusted her own body.
She is a plant demon. Once she drinks something poisonous and her body senses something unusual, she can use her internal energy to force the poison to a certain branch or leaf of the plant in time.
For example - hair.
After forcing all the toxins into her hair, and discarding a few strands of hair that have absorbed the toxins, the toxins will be excreted from her body, so she will not die from poisoning at all.
But now...
Shen Wuyou's eyes were sometimes intoxicated and sometimes clear. He lowered his eyes to look at the two strands of hair hidden in his hands and couldn't help but say inwardly:
Too careless!
She hadn't expected such a sweet and refreshing wine to have such a high alcohol content! While the poison could be forced out, the alcohol wouldn't work, nor would the intoxication. For now, all she could do was wait for the alcohol in her body to slowly evaporate...
Looking at Ling Wangqing, Bai Yumo and An Lanqing again, they seemed to be unaffected by the poison. Could it be that it was because their cultivation was too low, their level was too low, and their resistance was too weak, so the onset was faster?
The more he thought about it, the more it seemed right. Shen Wuyu immediately used this trick to calmly stop Ling Wangqing from drinking.
As for Bai Yumo and An Lanqing...
Forgive her incompetence, she was almost sticking to Ling Wangqing and "doing whatever she wanted". Couldn't she even look over at him?
Tired...
Seeing the two men concentrating on asking questions and probing questions, without even glancing at them, Shen Wuyou couldn't help but sigh softly. With a determined heart, he said directly to Ling Wangqing:
"Sir, I'm sorry!"
Ling Wangqing was still sitting upright and observing the etiquette of a gentleman. This sudden change caught him off guard and his mind went blank. He was stunned for a moment, his body stiff, and he heard Shen Wuyou's drunken murmur in his ears again.
The warm breath mixed with the rich aroma of wine and unique floral fragrance rushed towards his neck. He only felt a burning and slightly itchy feeling, as well as a strange numbness on his neck. He had never experienced such a strange feeling in his life. His body stiffened involuntarily and he was stunned again.
When he regained consciousness and wanted to pull the person off, he suddenly heard another apologetic apology. Before he had time to think about it, he suddenly felt a weight on his body. Ling Wangqing widened his eyes instantly and looked at the charming beauty in front of him in disbelief who suddenly jumped into his arms.
Her smile was captivating, and her pair of intoxicated eyes were full of smiles, as if bewitching, greedy, angry, seducing, and attached, like rippling water, very lovable.
Her lips were already bright red, and now after being drunk, they were even more crystal clear, soft, sexy, and tempting to taste.
Her red lips slowly approached his slightly stunned and tightly pursed lips. When the intoxicating fragrance came and the hot breath got infinitely close, she suddenly changed direction.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she took advantage of the alcohol and threw away the wine cup on the low table behind her. The wine cup rolled to the ground with a "gurgling" sound, making several loud noises, which attracted the surprised glances of others.
Bai Yumo heard the sound and subconsciously turned around, only to see such an eye-catching scene. The wine cup in her hand almost fell to the ground. She stared at the hot and passionate couple in front of her with her eyes almost popping out, and her three views were shattered.
But remembering the purpose of his visit, he suppressed the question marks churning in his head, swallowed the wine that almost came out of his mouth, smiled awkwardly, and wondered if this guy had taken the wrong medicine.
Just as he was about to explain, he accidentally glanced at the wine cup that rolled to the ground. His eyes fixed and he looked at Shen Wuyou again, and his eyes met hers. When he accurately received the message she conveyed, his eyes sank slightly, and then he moved his gaze away without a trace.
He smiled calmly at the city lord and joked, "Look at the city lord's fine wine. Even his pet monsters, who dislike worldly things, are partial to it. Get drunk and let the city lord laugh at you."
As he spoke, he used his inner strength to stimulate the blood, slowly turning his face red. Then he stopped, his face slightly drunk, raised his glass to each other, and apologized:
"I'm not very drunk, so I'll take my leave now. But please rest assured, City Lord, it's our duty to slay demons and protect the people. Since you're worried, I'll stay here until all the evil spirits are eradicated. I won't let the people of Juancheng be harassed by evil spirits again!"
The city lord's mouth twitched when he heard this. He didn't mean that. He lamented that the evil spirits often caused trouble not to leave these ancestors behind. But since the other party didn't know what was good for them, then don't blame him for being cruel!
Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly darkened, and then instantly restored his kind smile. He slowly stood up to greet him and bowed:
"You are so polite, Immortals. I've long heard that Xuwang Mountain takes it as its mission to eliminate demons and defend the Way. They care deeply about the world and each of them possesses extraordinary talents and abilities. Juancheng is blessed by our ancestors for having the protection of these immortals!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yumo waved her hands and shook her head, saying modestly, "Ah~ City Lord, you are too kind. This is what we should do."
As he spoke, he stood up from his seat. Realizing that the city lord was stalling for time, he shook his head and gave Shen Wuyou a look.
After the other party accepted it smoothly, he decisively rode on Ling Wangqing's body, staring straight at Ling Wangqing with his seductive eyes, which were misted with alcohol. He wrapped his arms around the other's neck like a spoiled child, and complained in a delicate voice:
"Master~I want~"
Ling Wangqing, who had already noticed something unusual, couldn't help but feel his forehead pounding. He resisted the urge to throw the man out, and the next second he stood up, picked him up by the collar, and strode away with a frosty face.
"Wait a minute!" The city lord suddenly spoke up and stopped several people.
At this moment, several servants suddenly filed out. Just when the group thought he was about to attack, the city lord slowly walked over, his round belly bulging, and he laughed a few times in a deep voice: "The immortal has worked hard, why not rest in the mansion tonight? It's better than traveling and worrying about it, and missing out on important work?"
Bai Yumo smiled and nodded in thanks, agreeing. After all, the other party was determined not to let her go, so of course she had to obey.
It's just that "business" but I don't know whose business it has affected...
Four young servants stood on either side, saying that they were worried that the drunken man would get lost, but it seemed like they were being as cautious as prisoners, always keeping an eye on each other's every move, afraid of missing anything.
