Chapter 25



Following Ji Ranran out of the hotel and getting on a special car, Rong Du was filled with helplessness all the way to the City Lord's Mansion.

He was a little suspicious whether people with such beautiful appearance were not very reliable inside! It was like this with Gu Xiang he met before, and it was also like this with Ji Ranran now, one was more unreliable than the other.

Because of Ji Ranran's behavior, Rong Du couldn't help but wonder if the Lord of Mo City was also such an unreliable person.

While thinking about the news he had heard about the Lord of Mo City, Rong Du looked at the scenery outside the car.

Because Mo City is close to the Demonic Mountains, there are people coming in and out all the time, conducting various transactions, and it is very lively.

But more people also means more things to do, and all kinds of evil things are happening all the time in the dark places of Mo City.

Rong Du is now accustomed to ignoring these things when he sees them.

After all... with his current ability, he cannot completely save those people, and Rong Du's current ability cannot change the status quo. He is not that kind and will not sacrifice himself for a few strangers.

Maybe... when Rong Du becomes the Demon Lord, things will change!

[Could it be... that this is the reason why the system made me become the Demon Lord? To save those people?]

Rong Du thought about it and actually felt that his idea was quite reasonable, [But... it shouldn't be like this.]

Although this reason is reasonable, based on Rong Du's experience of getting along with the system for more than 20 years, the system is not such a kind system.

The system doesn't have many restrictions on Qi Huai's daily behavior. It doesn't care what Qi Huai wants to do. Even if Qi Huai kills people or sets fires, the system may not stop him. It may even issue some related tasks for Qi Huai to do...

[System... what is your purpose?]

In fact, Rong Du is still mentally wandering, which proves that he is very sure about the safety of this trip to the City Lord's Mansion.

He believes that he will be fine, so except for being a little surprised and angry when Ji Ranran took out the Rong family disciple token, he had a cold face at other times because he didn't know what to say, and he was too lazy to talk to unfamiliar people, so he always had a frown on his face.

And... Rong Du is the kind of person who thinks more in his heart, and becomes more serious on the surface!

While Rong Du appeared calm but was thinking wildly in his heart, Ji Ranran beside him was also feeling uneasy.

[Ahhh, so scary, so scary, why do I have to ride in the same car with him? ? ?]

Looking at Rong Du who had a cold face since getting in the car, Ji Ranran screamed miserably in her heart.

Although Rong Du's face was very good-looking, Ji Ranran didn't notice Rong Du's face at all. Her attention was on Rong Du's increasingly cold aura.

[What, what should I do? He seems to be getting more and more angry. I, I don't seem to have done anything, right? Wuwuwu, so scary!] "

?"

Rong Du turned his head and looked at Ji Ranran, whose face was pale and trembling, in confusion, [Is she okay? ]

"Shh!!!" Seeing Rong Du looking at her coldly, Ji Ranran shrank back in her seat, not daring to look at Rong Du.

So... the two people sitting together had different ideas, which made the atmosphere in the car more and more weird!

...

After a while, Ji Ranran and the others arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

Looking at the familiar house in front and Mo Deng waiting at the door, Ji Ranran almost cried with joy, [Finally he's back, I don't have to stay with him anymore! ]

Ji Ranran waited until Rong Du got off the car, then looked at Mo Deng and said, "This is the City Lord's guest, you take him to see the City Lord, I'm leaving first!" After saying that, Ji Ranran didn't care about Mo Deng's reaction, and ran away in a hurry.

"...Am I scary?" Rong Du looked at Mo Deng and asked the doubts he had along the way.

"How could that be? Sir, you have an absolutely stunning appearance and an extraordinary demeanor, how could you be scary!" Mo Deng said to Rong Du with a gentle smile.

"..." Rong Du looked at Mo Deng in silence, and then said, "Let's go!"

"Please follow me!" The smile on Mo Deng's face did not change at all, and he still looked at Rong Du gently, then turned around and walked in front to lead the way for Rong Du.

"..." Looking at Mo Deng in front of him, Rong Du's evaluation of the Lord of Mo City was a little higher in his heart. It seemed that people as unreliable as Ji Ranran were still a minority.

Just as Rong Du was looking at Mo Deng, Mo Deng was also secretly looking at Rong Du, and then muttered to himself: "I can't see anything special, why did the Lord of the City send someone to invite him in person?"

[The voice is too loud, I can hear it! ]

Rong Du twitched his lips, pretending that he could not hear Mo Deng's words, and followed Mo Deng silently.

After a long and winding road, Rong Du was brought to a quiet room by Mo Deng.

"Brother, Mr. Rong is here!" Mo Deng knocked on the door and said.

Hearing Mo Deng's call, Rong Du could not help but raise his eyebrows. Whether Mo Deng was calling the Lord of Mo City or himself, Rong Du felt a little surprised: [It seems... they know a lot! ]

"Please come in!" A gentle voice that was somewhat similar to Mo Deng's came from the room.

Then Mo Deng took Rong Du in. As soon as he entered the door, he could see a black-haired young man who looked somewhat similar to Mo Deng leisurely making tea.

"Mr. Rong, please take a seat!" The Lord of Mo City placed a cup of tea on the seat opposite him and looked at Rong Du with a gentle smile.

Rong Du glanced at the Lord of Mo City, then sat down, but he did not touch the cup of tea.

"Is there anything Lord Mo City wants me to do?" Rong Du looked at the person in front of him and asked directly.

"You are indeed a man with the courage to overthrow the devil." Mo Xi clapped his hands and praised, "But, Mr. Rong, aren't you curious about how I know these things?"

"Oh, not curious!" Rong Du looked at Mo Xi expressionlessly.

"Uh..." It seemed that Rong Du's answer was beyond his expectations. Mo Xi paused for a second and then continued: "Then aren't you curious about what happened after you overthrew the devil?"

"... Not curious!" Rong Du paused slightly and couldn't help but think of what his main body did in the human world.

"Then you don't care about Qi Huai either?" As if he was annoyed by Rong Du's answers, Mo Xi no longer maintained a gentle tone, and lowered his voice and expression, looking at Rong Du gloomily.

"You..." Rong Du raised his head and stared at Mo Xi, "What do you want to say?"

It seemed that Rong Du's reaction finally met Mo Xi's requirements, and Mo Xi returned to his previous gentle appearance, but now Rong Du would no longer regard him as a good-tempered person.

"Don't worry, I just want to make friends with Mr. Rong!"

"Ha!" Rong Du sneered.
