He naturally understood that Zu An was protecting Yu Yanluo in his words. Although he was tasked with dealing with the Yu family, he couldn't let Zu An be implicated.
Alas, young people are so impatient, easily captivated by beauty.
Don't you think having two people at home is enough?
“I have evidence,” Xu Yu said, glancing outside. “Judging by the time, he should be arriving soon.”
Just then, a lazy voice came from outside: "Drink today, for tomorrow we may die; worry about tomorrow."
When the first word was heard, it seemed to be far away, but when the last word was heard, a cool breeze swept through the room, and a figure appeared in the hall.
He had a stubble beard, a few curls on his forehead, and looked sleepy. A huge green gourd was slung across his back, and you could smell the strong smell of alcohol emanating from him from a distance.
His clothes were stained with blackish stains, whether from old wine or oil, and he wore loose-fitting trousers and worn-out straw sandals. He looked as slovenly as could be, a stark contrast to the polished and glamorous officials in the room.

Even among the demon race, where powerful beings abound, she was a top-tier existence."
"She led the snake clan to become stronger and stronger, but unfortunately, this inevitably made many enemies as well."
"Once, when she was in seclusion at a crucial moment of breakthrough, several powerful demons and humans attacked her. After a fierce battle, she was seriously injured and fled. On her way, she was rescued by a young man who had unexpectedly ended up in the snake clan..."
Hearing him recount these old stories, Zu An inwardly cried out in alarm and hurriedly sent a telepathic message: "Brother Xiao, do you know that Yu Yanluo is your junior sister, and also a direct disciple of the High Priest, codenamed Hua?"
