Chapter 892: Staying in the City
Lu Yao nodded cautiously, "Yes, I heard Nangong Yao mention it some time ago."
Luo Li didn't stare at her closely. "So, can you tell me why Nangong Yao tied up a powerless person like you?"
Luyao lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, as if a butterfly was about to flap its wings and fly, and finally covered her eyes that were flashing with complex emotions.
She pursed her lips tightly, folded her hands in front of her, and her knuckles turned slightly white from the exertion.
The air around seemed to be frozen, and only the rustling of leaves in the distance added a bit of liveliness to the moment of silence.
Luo Li looked at her, and seeing that she still had no intention of speaking, she sighed softly, stood up and said, "Forget it, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Stay here and don't let Nangong Yao run into you."
She glanced at Chi Yan, who nodded immediately: Leave it to me, Master.
Before leaving, Luo Li used a formation talisman to set up an isolation array in her room, so that people outside could not detect her presence.
In the room, Lu Yao watched Luo Li's leaving back without blinking her eyes, but her hands were stubbornly clasped in her palms, revealing faint bloodshot.
sorry……
On the other side, Luo Li left the inn and returned to the Young Master's Mansion.
Wen Xingyan and Xuan Mu were not at home, and Xie Shiyuan had not yet arrived in Wangu City, so Luo Li simply entered the Tower of Gods and began to refine pills and weapons.
Most of the medicine she had on her was left behind when she left Lingcheng, so she would feel at ease if she could refine some more and keep them with her.
Time passed quickly. Wen Xingyan was busy with the competition. Xuan Mu also stayed in the inn where Eclipse Territory was staying because the visitor was the deputy lord of Eclipse Territory. Xie Shiyuan said that he would be two days late.
Soon, it was three days before the competition.
Wangu City has become increasingly lively recently. The Ancient God Auction House took advantage of this wave of traffic to hold a large auction and made a fortune. Luo Li naturally also donated a lot of elixirs.
Many people wanted the Ancient God Auction House to introduce her, the alchemist, but Luo Li rejected them all, saying that the time was not right yet.
Two days before the competition, Wen Xingyan finished his work and came to Luo Li's yard to find her.
Luo Li came out of the Tower of Gods and met Wen Xingyan right after she walked out the door. She was a little surprised and asked, "Are you done?"
Wen Xingyan smiled and nodded. "Now that we're done, Shi Yuan said she's already in Wangu City. Do you want to go find her together?"
Hearing this, Luo Li accepted Wen Xingyan's invitation, "Okay."
Wen Xingyan turned around, walked out, and motioned Luo Li to follow.
Luo Li walked beside him and chatted casually, "Is the God of War Competition only attended by the Southern Alliance forces?"
Wen Xingyan shook his head. "Actually, there have never been any restrictions, but the Northern Alliance rarely participates in the Southern Alliance's internal competitions. Perhaps they're afraid that the Ninth Heaven Master will be unhappy."
He smiled indifferently, "But this is also good. The Southern Alliance has never been under the complete rule of the True God. If the Northern Alliance's forces come over on a large scale, the lords of the Southern Alliance will be worried."
Luo Li's eyes flickered, and she calmly probed, "Does the Southern Alliance not support the rule of the True God?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Xingyan quickly looked up and around, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no one noticed their conversation.
He whispered, "You can't say such things so bluntly. Although the upper echelons of the Southern Alliance are generally calm and tolerant towards the True God, there are still many True God admirers among ordinary spiritualists. If they hear what you said, there will definitely be a big uproar."
Luo Li raised her eyebrows slightly, "I understand."
Wen Xingyan looked at Luo Li worriedly, "Don't say such reckless things outside in the future. If the followers of the True God catch you, it will be very difficult to deal with."
Luo Li laughed and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, I know the severity of the situation."
Wen Xingyan hesitated to speak, and finally sighed, "In short, it's okay to say such things in the Southern Alliance, but if you go to the Northern Alliance one day, you'll have to keep these words to yourself. After all, you just came to the Gods, and you don't know how perverted those fanatical believers are."
Luo Li seemed to be thinking about something. After a moment, under Wen Xingyan's gaze, she nodded randomly, "Okay, okay, I promise to keep it in my heart."
Wen Xingyan was satisfied, "That's good."
Before they knew it, they had arrived at a very luxurious inn. Wen Xingyan looked up and said, "This is the inn Shi Yuan mentioned. Let's go in."
There are only two leaders living in this entire inn, one is Leader Luoyue and the other is Leader Eclipse.
So as soon as Luo Li and Wen Xingyan entered the inn, a sharp-eyed disciple went to report it.
Upon hearing the news, Xie Shiyuan and Xuan Mu immediately walked out of the room and went downstairs.
Luo Li saw Xie Shiyuan hurried downstairs, and a smile flashed across her eyes, "Long time no see."
Xie Shiyuan smiled and nodded heavily, "Yeah! Long time no see!"
Xuan Mu arrived a little late and raised his eyebrows at the three of them. "What are you standing here for? Let's go into the room and talk."
In Xuan Mu's room, four people sat at the table, and Xuan Mu poured a cup of tea for each of them.
Luo Li picked up the teacup and took a sip, "How have you been lately?"
Xie Shiyuan held the teacup and said, "Thanks to you, I've been living a very comfortable life recently."
Luo Li smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed. "Thanks to me?"
"Yes," Xie Shiyuan flattered without reservation, "The pills you gave me really made those scoundrels under my command obedient, saving me a lot of energy."
Seeing her arrogant look, Luo Li smiled and said, "You really have to thank me. How about treating me to dinner at the Zhenyao Restaurant later?"
"It's a must," Xie Shiyuan drank the tea in his hand, "Let's go now!"
Luo Li raised her hand to stop her and laughed, "There's no need to be so anxious."
Xuan Mu sipped his tea and glanced at her, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's not like I won't let you treat me."
Xie Shiyuan rolled his eyes silently, "Shut up, I want to invite A-Li, not you."
Xuan Mu curled his lips, "Tsk, who cares."
Xie Shiyuan's facial features wrinkled in anger, "Then don't eat it!"
"Okay," Luo Li raised her hand with a headache and changed the subject, "Speaking of which, Shi Yuan, why are you so late?"
"It's the Lord," Xie Shiyuan held up his chin and complained a little, "The Lord received a letter from Buli City, saying that he and Luoyue Territory would come to the War God Territory to participate in the competition. We waited at the place they mentioned for five or six days before they finally arrived."
Luo Li's eyes flickered, and her expression changed slightly, "You've come to the God of War Territory even after leaving the city?"
Xuan Mu also became interested. "Doesn't Buli City never participate in this kind of competition? Why would they suddenly send people to the God of War Territory?"
Wen Xingyan was also puzzled. "Yeah, when I looked at the list a few days ago, there was no "Bu Li Cheng" yet."
