"You..." The city lord, who had always been decisive and ruthless, pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly asked, "You are the child from back then."
There is no question mark, it is not a question sentence, but a pure and straightforward statement.
After seeing Su Luo's face which is almost 70% similar to that person back then, what else is there to not understand?
What's more, she was Rong Yun's disciple. The fact that Rong Yun made an exception and accepted her as his disciple... he should have guessed it long ago.
The city lord rubbed his brow in annoyance.
When he raised his head again, he stared at Rong Yun with a cold gaze: "You did it on purpose."
"So what?" Rong Yun smiled happily.
"Now, this girl belongs to me." The city lord stretched out his hand and hid Su Luo behind him.
Rong Yun frowned slightly: "You can't make the decision on this matter, you have to ask Luo girl herself."
Su Luo was suddenly confused... Why did she feel like two important people were fighting for her custody?
Dongfang Xuan felt more and more that something was wrong at this time.
Master's actions, his words...why did it feel like he was protecting Su Luo? Shouldn't he avenge her? So Dongfang Xuan bravely fought for his rights.
"Master, can you hand Su Luo over to me?" Dongfang Xuan asked with a bow.
The conversation between Master Rong Yun and the City Lord was interrupted.
The city lord turned around, his handsome face meeting Dongfang Xuan's. He frowned slightly and said a few words, "What did you say just now?"
Dongfang Xuan gritted his teeth and repeated, "Master, can you hand Su Luo over to me?"
Dongfang Xuan felt that his master's attitude was very strange, mysterious and elusive.
"No, not before." The city lord had a blank expression on his face.
Dongfang Xuan glanced at Su Luo, his expression grim as he recalled, "Master, there's no need for you to do it yourself. Let me avenge this!"
The city lord seemed unsatisfied and snorted coldly, "Before that."
Dongfang Xuan also felt something was amiss at this point, but he dared not disobey his master's orders. So, he could only bite the bullet and continue to repeat what he had said before: "Father! It was this witch who attacked me. Don't worry, I will never let you down. I, Dongfang Xuan, will not be a human being until I have my revenge!"
"Yes, that's it." The city lord seemed to be in a good mood at this moment.
Dongfang Xuan observed his master's expression and saw that he was in a good mood, so he felt relieved.
The master has always been moody and unpredictable, but he seems to be in a good mood now. I guess he will make the decision for himself, right?
Not only Dongfang Xuan thought so, but Li Yaoyao and the others were also looking forward to it.
But the next moment——
Suddenly, a strong palm force hit Dongfang Xuan!
Dongfang Xuan's body fell backwards in an instant like a broken piece of garbage!
Bang!
Dongfang Xuan fell heavily to the ground, creating a deep pit that was so shocking that people couldn't bear to look at it.
"Master..."
At this moment, Dongfang Xuan felt that the world had become completely unrecognizable to him.
His background, his backers, his proud and biased master, not only did not help him get revenge, but instead attacked him? What on earth is wrong with this world!
Dongfang Xuan was devastated and wanted to cry.
The city lord only used a little force in this palm strike, but Dongfang Xuan fell to the ground seriously injured. He kept coughing, and blood mixed with sweat flowed all over the ground.
The city lord's move also shocked many people.
