Chapter 1218 The Su Family Returns
Qingyi's eyes were firm. "My benefactor, you brought me out of the ruins. Qingyi's life is yours. No matter what the reason, I will never betray you."
She pulled Luo Li's clothes and said, "Let me follow you. Contract me."
Luo Li was helpless and said, "Then you should stay in Bulicheng for now. If you still don't change your mind, we can bring up this matter again."
"Okay!" Qingyi smiled, "Then we can't go back to the city!"
The thunderstorm just now made quite a loud noise, so naturally people in the city also saw it.
But when he saw Luo Li coming back, that worry disappeared in an instant.
With the city lord here, what is there to be afraid of?
City Lord's Mansion.
Shi Heng, Lan Xiaoxiao and the others were in seclusion, Bei Mingyu and the others were also studying in the Alliance Academy, and Luo Li did not disturb them.
After finding a piece of demon fragment, he suddenly became free.
After all, the fragments of the demon god are not everywhere, and apart from attracting the attention of other forces, there is very little that can be done.
There was less than a year left before the seal was lifted, and time was running out, so Luo Li simply stayed in Buli City and did not go out.
I plan to accompany Di Xuanming to the Su family after his injury is healed.
However, plans always fail to keep up with changes. Half a month later, the envoy of the Su family visited Buli City again.
But this time he was much more polite. He actually stood outside the city and asked his disciples to find Luo Li to pass the message.
Luo Li was teaching alchemy to the students at the Alliance Academy. Upon hearing this, she raised her eyebrows slightly, "Oh?"
She stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."
Stay in the city, outside the main city gate.
The traces left by the earth-shaking annihilation thunder tribulation half a month ago have not yet completely disappeared. There seems to be a hint of the faint burning after the thunder tribulation and the vigorous vitality of new strength lingering in the air.
The towering city gate appeared even more solid and heavy in the sunshine after the disaster. On the city wall, the tall figures of patrolling disciples could be vaguely seen, their eyes sharp, watching the outside of the city vigilantly.
At this moment, on the flat wilderness outside the city, a small but imposing team stood quietly.
There were about twenty people, all wearing the same moon-white brocade robes with delicate ice patterns embroidered on the cuffs and lapels, which was the symbol of the Su family.
They were restrained and their formation was neat and orderly.
In front of the team, several majestic and majestic Ice Moon Unicorns, with snow-white bodies and ice-crystal horns on their heads, were quietly stepping on their hooves and breathing out traces of cold air.
These unicorns are not only of noble blood, but also a symbol of the Su family's power, demonstrating the identity and strength of the visitors.
The most eye-catching person was the young man at the front of the team, who was sitting on the back of an exceptionally majestic and even larger unicorn.
The young man looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with a handsome face and a noble air between his brows that was unique to the children of a wealthy family, but his eyes were gentle and peaceful, without any arrogance.
He was the messenger from the Su family that Luo Li and the others met that day, but this time he had taken off his black robe.
Coming to this city again with a different attitude than last time, the young man actually felt a little complicated.
He has an upright posture, and his moon-white brocade robe highlights his outstanding temperament.
The Ice Moon Unicorn sitting down was obviously extraordinary. When its four hooves stepped, a faint frost mist condensed and dissipated under its feet, and its aura was steady and powerful.
Half a step behind him, two old men with white hair and beard stood respectfully. Their eyes were as sharp as eagles and their aura was equally strong. They were also at the Saint King level, but slightly inferior to the young man.
When the two of them glanced at the city walls of Buli City, which had become even more majestic after being baptized by thunder, a barely perceptible solemnity and amazement flashed across their eyes.
At this moment, a huge shadow silently covered the area near the city gate.
Above the city wall, a vortex of spiritual power appeared and the wind element suddenly became active.
The huge green figure circled down gracefully and finally landed steadily on the top of the highest city wall.
Qingyi.
She did not transform into a human form, but stood proudly in her original form.
The newly born emerald green dragon scales reflect the brilliant light of life and strength in the sunlight, and the dark golden color flowing along the edges adds to its nobility.
The pair of vertical pupils burning with cyan-gold flames calmly looked down at the Su family team below. The huge dragon wings were gently folded at the side of the body, but naturally exuded a majesty of controlling the laws of the wind.
The majestic dragon power of the pure-blooded wind dragon at the peak of the Saint King level slowly spread out like an invisible tide.
The air seemed to become sticky, and the well-trained Ice Moon Unicorns below were actually a little restless, making low neighs. If it weren't for the comfort from their masters on their backs, they would have almost retreated.
The young man from the Su family who was in the lead had a gleam in his eyes. He looked up at the huge green figure on the top of the city wall. For the first time, his gentle eyes revealed clear shock and admiration.
The two old men behind him had their pupils slightly shrank and their bodies subconsciously tensed for a moment.
He felt a chill in his heart, and his evaluation of this new Buli City and the mysterious city lord Luo Li instantly rose several levels.
"Su family, what a big scene." A cold and pleasant voice came from inside the city gate.
The heavy city gate slowly opened, and several figures walked out.
The woman in the lead was wearing a simple red dress, her figure was slender yet tall and straight like a pine tree.
She has a stunningly beautiful face and a temperament as cool as the moon. She is none other than the city lord Luo Li.
Beside her, Di Xuanming was dressed in a dark black robe, with a tall and imposing figure and a stern face. His deep eyes were like a cold pond, carrying a natural sense of oppression. He swept his gaze over everyone in the Su family with a scrutinizing look.
See you again, Su family.
Bai Ze was still dressed in white clothes as white as snow, as gentle as jade, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts.
Xuan Ye was like a silent shadow, hidden behind Luo Li. His aura was restrained, but his presence could not be ignored.
Qingyi lowered its huge head slightly and let out a gentle low moan as a greeting to Luo Li.
Luo Li's gaze passed the front and fell directly on the young man from the Su family who was leading the group. Her voice was calm and unperturbed. "I wonder what the Su family is here for this time?"
There was no emotion in her tone, but it made many young men in the Su family team feel an invisible pressure.
The young man from the Su family who was in the lead remained expressionless as he turned over and gracefully jumped off the unicorn.
He moved calmly, facing Luo Li, clasped his hands together, bowed slightly, and performed the standard etiquette for peers from aristocratic families on the Continent of Gods. His posture was extremely humble, but he still maintained the dignity of a noble family.
"I am Su Qingjue, the envoy of the Su family. City Lord, we met not long ago. I believe you haven't forgotten me, right?" Su Qingjue's voice was warm and clear, like the sound of jade clashing, clearly echoing throughout the entire venue. "I'm not here this time because of the last incident, nor is it about Di Xuanming. I'm here on behalf of the Su family, and I have something important to discuss with City Lord Luo."
He raised his head and looked at Luo Li with a frank gaze, full of sincerity. "This matter is of great importance. It involves the secrets of the Great Wilderness and even more so, the future of the continent. The Su family has come to ask City Lord Luo to come into the city for a detailed discussion."
When his gaze passed over Di Xuanming, he paused slightly, and an indescribable solemnity flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Emperor Xuanming seemed to sense something, and his cold gaze instantly met his, and invisible sparks seemed to burst in the air.
Su Qingjue was shocked, but did not show any expression on his face. He looked at Luo Li again, waiting for her response.
The two old saints behind him also restrained their aura and kept a very low profile.
Within the city, Luo Li, Di Xuanming, Bai Ze, including Qingyi on the city wall and Xingyi in the dark, all understood that the Su family seemed to have something extremely important to do this time.
Moreover, his attitude was completely different from the last time. An invisible undercurrent began to surge in the air.
Luo Li's eyes flickered slightly as she looked at the humble Su Qingjue and the Su family team behind him with obvious solemn expressions, and slowly spoke:
"Since the Su family has sincerely invited us, Luo Li will certainly fulfill her duties as a host. Please, enter the city."
The heavy city gate opened completely with a low roar, revealing the wide and clean roads in the city and the buildings in the distance.
Su Qingjue looked solemn and clasped his fists again: "Thank you, City Lord Luo."
He raised his hand to signal, and the Su family team behind him moved in unison and landed silently.
The restless Ice Moon Unicorns gradually calmed down under the comfort of their master, but they could still feel the invisible pressure brought by the green figure on the city wall, and appeared to be particularly docile.
Su Qingjue only brought the two old saints with him, who had a strong aura. The rest of the people stayed where they were and waited quietly.
This gesture is the lowest possible posture, and also shows that this action is not for the use of force.
Luo Li nodded slightly, turned around and led the way.
Di Xuanming walked side by side with her, his steps steady. His inky figure was like an abyss. His deep gaze occasionally swept over Su Qingjue, with scrutiny and a hint of imperceptible coldness.
Bai Ze continued to smile gently, as if he had everything under control. Xuan Ye, like a loyal shadow, followed silently behind Luo Li, his presence completely restrained. However, this made the two elder sages of the Su family feel a chill in their hearts, and they dared not be careless in the slightest.
On the city wall, Qingyi's huge head turned slightly, and its vertical pupils burning with cyan flames locked onto the three people from the Su family. The huge dragon body brought invisible oppression.
She did not follow him into the city, but instead sat on the highest city wall like a guardian deity, with her dragon wings gently folded and her emerald green dragon scales gleaming in the sun, silently proclaiming the city's powerful protective force.
Su Qingjue's gaze lingered on Qingyi for a moment, his admiration growing stronger, then he withdrew his gaze and followed Luo Li into the Buli City without looking away.
After passing through the city gate corridor, the scene inside the city suddenly becomes clear.
The streets were wide, and the buildings were solid and full of life. When the residents and patrolling disciples saw Luo Li, they all bowed respectfully, their eyes full of trust and admiration.
This kind of cohesion and vitality made Su Qingjue sigh in his heart, saying that it was definitely not comparable to ordinary forces.
The atmosphere was quiet along the way, and they soon arrived at the core area of the City Lord's Mansion, the main hall symbolizing the highest authority in the city.
The main hall is magnificent and is built of solid black iron stone. Its lines are simple but exude a sense of heavy power.
The space inside the hall is spacious, the dome is high, and several huge crystal pillars support the roof, emitting faint spiritual fluctuations.
The furnishings in the hall are not luxurious, but they are full of majesty.
