"How dare you guys act so presumptuously in Youlan City! Our city lord will decide who is good and who is bad! Take them all away!"
The leading guard had a righteous look on his face, his eyes sweeping over the rat demons and the goods they were selling, his tone serious and firm.
He is clearly a principled, impartial man who will not tolerate any violations of the rules.
With his order, the other guards took action and took away the rat demons and their goods.
Those rat demons originally wanted to resist, but after seeing the powerful strength of the guards, they had no choice but to submit.
After all, this is Youlan City, and no one can act recklessly here.
At the same time, the other two guards pulled Guan Muxi up from the ground and held her high, preparing to take her back to the city together.
Guan Muxi's face was a little pale, obviously all his spiritual power had been completely exhausted in the previous battle.
Helpless, he had to let the guards take him away.
Soon, the group disappeared into the city gate, leaving only the people around them talking about it.
Everyone was surprised by this sudden change, and at the same time, they admired the guards of Youlan City even more for arriving so quickly.
In the Youlan City prison, after the guards had left, Guan Muxi made sure that no one was around, then quietly took out a small jade bottle from his arms, poured out a pill and put it into his mouth.
This is a pill that replenishes spiritual power and can help practitioners quickly recover their spiritual power.
She had just been severely depleted, and her spiritual power was almost exhausted. If she didn't find a way to replenish her spiritual power, she would probably have difficulty standing.
After taking the pill, she felt her body gradually gain strength and her spirits became better.
So she lay leisurely on the haystack in the cell, dangling her feet and listening to the screams of the rat demon next door.
The rat demon had his arm pierced by her hairpin, but the guards wouldn't bandage it.
It screamed and begged for mercy, hoping to be forgiven, but the guards ignored its requests and continued to ignore it.
Guan Muxi felt bored, so she closed her eyes and began to think about how to escape. If she didn't escape tonight, her senior brother would definitely notice that she was missing when he set off tomorrow.
At this moment, Hu Yi arrived. She was tall, and even wearing the uniform of Youlan City, it was difficult to hide her proud figure.
After she learned that someone was causing trouble in Youlan City, she immediately rushed over with her men to check the situation. After all, it was quite rare for someone to dare to cause trouble in Youlan City.
When she saw the man lying in the cell, she was startled and cried out, "Omo!"
Then he turned around and left.
This made the guards nearby very surprised and confused, and they didn't know what was going on.
Why did you just take a look and leave?
Soon, their doubts were dispelled.
Because their city lord is here! ! !
The man's shiny black hair stood up high, like a proud peacock.
His shoulders were broad and powerful, yet his waist was narrow to the right degree, revealing a unique charm. Those who knew him well could easily tell that he was dressed in a special way today.
His eyes were like the upward-slanting eyes of a fox, deep and sharp, and his brown pupils emitted a mysterious light that seemed to be able to penetrate the human soul.
His nose is high and straight, giving people a sense of determination and decisiveness.
This kind of appearance is unforgettable at first sight, it is really amazing.
"Lord City Lord!" The guards shouted in unison, their voices echoing throughout the cell, and then they all knelt down to salute.
"Yeah." He responded softly, his voice gentle and magnetic, as if it could make people feel at ease and comfortable.
However, this was in stark contrast to his usual seriousness and indifference, which surprised and confused the guards.
The guards secretly wondered: Why was their Lord Mayor so unusual today? He seemed a little... gentle???
At this moment, Guan Muxi's legs, which were originally raised, suddenly stopped, and then she slowly sat up, looking into the man's eyes.
The man was standing in the backlight, his face obscured by shadows, making it difficult to see clearly, but Guan Muxi recognized him at a glance.
In an instant, countless memories flooded into her mind, impacting her thoughts like a tide.
This was the first time she saw his true form in this life.
Guan Muxi still remembers the catastrophe in her previous life vividly. She witnessed him disappear in front of her.
He used his life to shield himself from the fatal blow.
His last words seemed to still echo in my ears: "Xiao Xi... run!"
Thinking of this, tears involuntarily flowed from Guan Muxi's eyes.
Seeing Guan Muxi crying, An Zeyan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a ripple appeared in his heart.
Is she frightened? he wondered to himself.
"Open the cell." An Zeyan's voice was low and firm.
"Yes." The guard quickly stepped forward and skillfully opened Guan Muxi's cell door.
An Zeyan waved his hand, took out an exquisite chair from the space ring, and slowly sat down.
He tried to adjust his expression, trying to show a touch of gentleness.
"You are the one causing trouble outside the city?" He lowered his head and looked at the little figure in front of him whose nose was slightly red from crying.
Guan Muxi lowered her head and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands. Then she raised her head and said with a firm look in her eyes: "It's me, but I'm not making trouble for no reason!"
"Oh?" An Zeyan raised his eyebrows, seeming a little surprised by her answer.
"Then tell me." He said softly, his eyes always on her, waiting for her explanation.
At this time, Xiao Tiandao flew to An Zeyan's side and covered his mouth with his chubby little hands. "Oh my, Xiaoxi baby's man is still so handsome and dashing. I am envious of him~"
As Xiao Tiandao spoke, he touched An Zeyan's face with his hands.
"Mmm~ He's a good baby, very suitable for our little Xi baby."
Guan Muxi couldn't help but smile when he saw Xiao Tiandao's actions. "I think you have already obtained the items that the rat demons set up. With a little investigation, you can find out if anyone in the city has lost any property."
"And..."
Guan Muxi turned around and pointed at a rat demon in the next cell and said, "He has a stolen immortal-level spiritual herb hidden in his arms!"
When the rat demon heard this, alarm bells rang in his heart, because they had stolen that spiritual herb from the auction house! ! !
However, they also knew that the man before them was not only the Lord of Youlan City, but also the owner of the auction house! ! !
He gritted his teeth, made up his mind, took out the spiritual herb from his arms, and prepared to put it in his mouth.
Planning to destroy the body!
The guards noticed the rat demon's movements and hurriedly tried to open the cell door to stop it.
But how can their speed compare to that of the rat demon?
