Upon seeing this, Jiao Mingshan hurried forward to salute, with a respectful smile on his face.
"Young Master."
Zhu Chen glanced at him lightly, with a hint of nonchalance in his tone.
"Lord Jiao, there's no need for formalities. Didn't you just say you had prepared a special gift for this young master? Would you mind taking a look?"
When Jiao Mingshan heard this, his face changed slightly and he secretly groaned in his heart.
The beauty has already run away, where can he prepare a gift for her now?
He hesitated for a moment, but finally said it with gritted teeth.
"Master, please forgive me. I... I failed to do my job well. Something unexpected happened with that gift."
"oh?"
Zhu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with a hint of amusement, "What happened?"
Jiao Mingshan's forehead was covered in sweat as he whispered, "Young Master, that woman... she suddenly rebelled and looted the City Lord's Mansion's warehouse. She's now nowhere to be found."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Chen's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he laughed.
"Rebellion? Looting a warehouse? Interesting, really interesting!"
Jiao Mingshan was stunned. He didn't expect that Zhu Chen was not angry, but became more interested in Meng Wan.
Zhu Chen's eyes showed some interest, "Most of the women I have met are timid and boring.
This guy not only dared to openly rebel in the City Lord's Mansion, but also looted the warehouse. He is quite courageous."
Upon hearing this, Jiao Mingshan heaved a sigh of relief and quickly agreed, "Young Master is right, this girl is indeed different.
She left here only a quarter of an hour ago, so she couldn't have gotten far. I'll send someone to track her down right away!"
Zhu Chen chuckled, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
"Investigate? No need. This young master will go and meet her in person."
Jiao Mingshan was shocked when he heard this and hurried forward to dissuade him.
"Young Master, although this woman is only at the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm, she is quite powerful. I am worried..."
"What are you worried about?"
Zhu Chen raised his eyebrows, his tone a little unhappy.
"Do you think that this young master can't do anything to her?"
Jiao Mingshan quickly lowered his head, cold sweat pouring down his forehead. "I dare not! But this woman is very cunning, and I am afraid that the young master will be implicated..."
"snort!"
Zhu Chen snorted coldly, waved his sleeves, and his tone was a little arrogant.
"A mere woman in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm is worth your being so nervous?
This young master wants to see what she is capable of, to dare to act so presumptuously under this young master's nose!"
Seeing that Zhu Chen had made up his mind, Jiao Mingshan didn't dare to say anything more and could only speak respectfully.
"Young Master is wise. I will send someone to assist you and make sure to capture this woman!"
"No need."
Zhu Chen smiled faintly, with a hint of confidence in his eyes.
"This young master is enough. You just need to tell me where she is going, and you don't have to worry about the rest."
Jiao Mingshan nodded quickly and handed him the direction Meng Wan had left and a jade talisman that contained Meng Wan's aura.
After learning the direction of Meng Wan's escape, Zhu Chen curled up his lips into a smile.
"Interesting, she actually went north. There are many demons and monsters in that place. She is quite brave."
Jiao Mingshan said cautiously, "Young Master, demons are rampant in the north, and the environment is harsh. If you go there in person, I'm worried..."
"What are you worried about?"
Zhu Chen glanced at him, his tone filled with impatience, "Do I need to explain my actions to you?"
Jiao Mingshan lowered his head helplessly, "I dare not!"
Zhu Chen ignored him, turned around and waved his sleeves, his figure transformed into a stream of red light, soaring into the sky and heading straight to the north.
After Zhu Chen left, Jiao Mingshan slowly raised his head, with a complex look in his eyes.
He murmured in a low voice: "Meng Wan, ah Meng Wan, if you had been obedient, why would it have come to this? Now that you have angered the young master of the Suzaku tribe, I am afraid that you are in great danger..."
Half an hour later, in a desolate forest a hundred thousand miles away.
Meng Wan's figure was as fast as lightning, shuttling through the barren mountains and forests.
She heard that there were many demons and monsters in the north, so she planned to find more prey here.
But at this moment, she suddenly felt that a powerful aura was approaching rapidly.
Meng Wan's heart trembled, and she suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky.
A streak of red light streaked across the sky and appeared in front of her in an instant.
The light faded away, and a young man in a luxurious brocade robe stood with his hands behind his back. It was Zhu Chen.
"Deputy City Lord Meng, why are you in such a hurry?"
Zhu Chen smiled slightly, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
Meng Wan's eyes turned cold, demonic power surged around her body, and she stared at Zhu Chen vigilantly.
"Who are you?"
Zhu Chen chuckled, "This young master is Zhu Chen of the Suzaku clan. I have come to invite Deputy City Lord Meng back to the mansion for a chat."
Upon hearing this, Meng Wan immediately became alert.
Although she had never seen Zhu Chen, she had heard of the name of the young master of the Suzaku clan.
This person's strength is definitely not comparable to that of Jiaomingshan.
"I have no connection with the Suzaku Clan. Why is Young Master making things difficult for me?"
Meng Wan said coldly.
Zhu Chen shook his head, with a hint of amusement in his tone.
"Embarrassment? No, no, no, this young master is just very interested in you.
It's rare to find a female demon who dares to openly rebel in the City Lord's Mansion and even loot the warehouse. As long as you follow me, I guarantee you will enjoy endless wealth and glory!
When Meng Wan heard this, a strange look flashed in her eyes. Then she lowered her head, a faint blush appeared on her face, and she spoke softly.
"Since the young master values me so much, then I... I am naturally willing to follow the young master. But..."
She raised her head, her eyes filled with anticipation and exploration.
