Chapter 401 City Lord’s Daughter



Gao Han heard what seemed to be screams coming from the far front of the crowd, a particularly chaotic sound.

The man's cultivation was not very high, only in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. Even if he wanted to plot against them, he did not have the strength to do so, so he gestured to Zhongli Tingzhou.

The two men then followed the man to the alley at the back. The alley was empty and the mixed sounds from the main street could still be heard, but it was already a relatively quiet place.

Gao Han made sure that there was no one ambushing them, then he looked at the man, "What did you mean when you said that it would be too late if we were any later?"

The man breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed when he heard his words: "Before you came to Tianjiu City, didn't you ask about the situation in Tianjiu City?"

"Is there any problem with Tianjiu City?" Gao Han asked with a raised eyebrow.

"It seems like you just arrived today and haven't even heard of this." The man smiled, "Luckily you met me today."

"I haven't just arrived yet. I've been here a few days ago." Seeing that the other party did not show any malice, Gao Han was 70% sure that he might have good intentions, so he gave a brief explanation.

The man was shocked when he heard this. "With your looks, you two have been here for a few days, but you are still safe and sound until now? You must be really lucky."

"Safe and sound?" Gao Han felt that his choice of words was very strange. Could it be that there were forces in Tianjiu City that would secretly attack cultivators? This place was not far from Zixiao Sect. If that was true, these people were too bold.

Seeing the alertness in his eyes, the man knew that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "It's not really dangerous, it's just a very troublesome thing. Do you know that the mayor of Tianjiu City has a daughter?"

Gao Han shook his head. "I haven't heard of it. This is indeed our first time in Tianjiu City. Is the trouble you mentioned related to the daughter of Tianjiu City Lord?"

"Yes, the daughter of City Lord Tianjiu is obsessed with looks, especially handsome men. It is said that except for a few maids sent by City Lord Tianjiu, all the people in her house, from patrons to servants, are men, and they are all good-looking men. All good-looking men will be entangled by her." The man said while wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Gao Han finally understood why he was so worried. The man was good-looking. He was probably afraid that he would be favored by the daughter of Tianjiu City Lord, so he brought them here to hide.

"So, the one who caused the commotion earlier was the daughter of the Lord of Tianjiu City?" Zhongli Tingzhou said with great interest.

Man: “That’s right.”

Gao Han laughed when he heard this, "So all men who think they are good-looking will try their best to avoid them, right?"

The man was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he showed an expression of sudden enlightenment. It seemed that this was the case. No wonder he felt something was strange. It turned out that this was the problem.

Are there really so many good-looking people on the street? Or is the daughter of Tianjiu City Lord so discerning? Although the rumors are a bit exaggerated, it is not the case that she would pester anyone she sees on the street to take them home. It turns out that some ugly people are causing trouble.

The man realized this and couldn't help but laugh and cry. However, if it were these two people, he felt that the daughter of the Lord of Tianjiu City would definitely be able to kidnap someone in the street.

"Anyway, you guys should be careful. It is said that the daughter of Tianjiu City is planning to choose a good husband recently. She even threatened to marry the most handsome man in Lingtian Continent. I think the two of you are a bit dangerous. If you can stay at home, you'd better not go out recently."

Gao Han pondered for a moment, "The daughter of the Lord of Tianjiu City should not be low in status. If she really wants to get married, there will be many good-looking men who will agree. Is there another reason why everyone is avoiding her?"

The man looked at him blankly. "You are really smart. You can even think of this. Indeed, no one is willing to marry her, especially young men, because the daughter of Tianjiu City Lord is already 200 years old, and it is rumored that she is ugly and plain-looking."

"So that's how it is. But why did you tell us about this?" Gao Han felt that it was more likely that the man was jealous of Zhongli Tingzhou's good looks.

"We are all men." The man didn't know what Gao Han was thinking. In fact, he didn't think too much about it. He just happened to meet them and heard their interesting conversation, so he couldn't help but speak. Otherwise, who would suddenly follow two strangers and say such bizarre things.

Gao Han smiled and said, "Thank you for the reminder. May I know your name?"

"My surname is Su, which means fate." The man smiled brightly.

After bidding farewell to the man, Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou went to Cedar Pavilion as planned. In order to avoid trouble, they deliberately took a detour and took a look from afar. Among the crowd of people, there was indeed a woman who was extremely majestic.

Turning back to the main street, they walked in the direction of the daughter of Tianjiu City Lord with their backs to her, because Xuesong Pavilion was on this main street, just a few hundred meters ahead.

Because of the daughter of Tianjiu City Lord, the street outside Xuesong Pavilion suddenly became deserted. Two men suddenly appeared, and they were extremely handsome. The guys who were ready to greet them were stunned, as if they couldn't believe how they avoided the clutches of Tianjiu City Lord's daughter and came here.

After the two guests walked past him as if nothing had happened, the waiter came to his senses and hurriedly chased after them, "What do you want, we at Cedar Pavilion have almost everything..."

"Are there thousand-year-old pine trees, phoenix feathers, or feather-tooth jade?" Gao Han named three in succession.

The waiter smiled bitterly, not expecting to be slapped in the face immediately, "I really don't know if this is available. Please wait a moment, I will go find Shopkeeper Lan right away."

A moment later, the sound of footsteps came from the direction of the second floor of Cedar Pavilion. The first thing that caught my eye was a pair of straight, white legs, followed by a slender waist, a high chest and a beautiful face. There was a hint of charm in her eyes.

"Dear guests, this is our shopkeeper Lan," the waiter explained attentively.

Shopkeeper Lan was obviously stunned when she saw them. It was unclear whether it was because they were too good-looking or because she had the same idea as the waiter. However, her reaction was much faster than the waiter's. She was obviously a person who had seen a lot of things. Without giving them a chance to react, she jokingly said, "What a rare visitor. It's unexpected that we can see two such handsome men in Tianjiu City."

"I wonder if you have the three things I just mentioned?" Gao Han, who has never been fascinated by women, asked directly.

Shopkeeper Lan was not surprised to see that he was not attracted by her beauty, and immediately said seriously, "The three materials you want are extremely special, so it is impossible for us to have all three."

Gao Han asked sharply, "Does that mean there are one or two types?"

"You are really smart." Shopkeeper Lan covered his mouth and chuckled. "Currently, Xuesong Pavilion only has the feather-tooth stone jade. You are lucky. The feather-tooth stone jade was obtained by chance. As for the ten-thousand-year-old pine tree, there is no phoenix feather. Now we have a thousand-year-old pine tree, which is considered good. As for the phoenix feather, I have only heard of it in rumors."

Gao Han was a little disappointed, but it was good enough to find one, at least it was not a complete failure.

"Then give me the Lingya Stone Jade."

"I'm afraid I can't give this to you." Surprisingly, Shopkeeper Lan shook his head.

Gao Han frowned, "Why is that?"

Shopkeeper Lan: "To tell you the truth, the feather-tooth jade is not easy to get. It is actually the treasure of our Xuesong Pavilion. It is because of it that so many people come to Xuesong Pavilion. If I sell it to you, it will not have this effect."

"It doesn't matter even if it offends those who come here for the feather-tooth stone jade?" Gao Han said.

Shopkeeper Lan has been through many battles and has heard the same thing before. He has long since mastered the skill of keeping a straight face. "You are joking. Although the Feather Teeth Jade is not for sale, since our Xuesong Pavilion can get this kind of thing, we naturally have ways to get other things. I am not deliberately teasing you. It's just that the Feather Teeth Jade is indeed the treasure of our store. It's just an excuse to attract people. I think you two are not unreasonable people, so I told you the truth."

"What if we are really unreasonable?" Zhongli Tingzhou said with a smile.

He was already very handsome, and this smile had a somewhat mischievous feeling, which instantly made Shopkeeper Lan's heart beat fast. In all her years in Tianjiu City, this was the first time she had seen such a charming man.

Gao Han suddenly poked Zhongli Tingzhou in the ribs with his elbow.

Zhongli Tingzhou was a little confused after being beaten suddenly. He looked at him, then at Shopkeeper Lan, frowned and said, "This woman lied to us. Are you sympathizing with her?" He also showed a fierce expression.

Gao Han rolled his eyes and said to Shopkeeper Lan in a straightforward manner, "In that case, we won't bother you anymore."

"Sir, why don't you take a look at the rest? Perhaps there are things you want there." Shopkeeper Lan had no idea what they were talking about, but since two young men who looked like rich men had finally come, he had an urge to peel off a layer of skin from them.

Gao Han glanced at her and said, "Since the Lingya Stone Jade is just a gimmick, you must know that not everything will go as you wish." He could buy other things at half the price in Zixiao Sect, so why waste spirit stones here.

Shopkeeper Lan was stunned, watching the two people walk out of the Cedar Pavilion. He suddenly smiled and whispered softly, "Those who don't listen to me will be in trouble..."

The waiter at the side was sweating profusely. The beauty that Shopkeeper Lan was so proud of was useless for the first time. There were distinguished guests who got angry in the past, but they were persuaded by Shopkeeper Lan in the end. This was also the first time he failed. Moreover, it was so scary to see Shopkeeper Lan smiling like this. He hadn't seen Shopkeeper Lan with this expression for a long time.

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou walked out of Cedar Pavilion without looking back. Suddenly, a noisy sound came from the left. The two subconsciously turned around and saw a group of people.

There were men and women. The men were all good-looking, while the women were plain-looking. Walking in front of them was a woman dressed in luxurious clothes, holding a short black whip in her hand and riding a flaming lion, crawling tremblingly.
