"It's fortunate that this young master is sensible enough to avoid physical harm." Zhai Xinyu's gaze then fell on Fu Chishang. "And you?"
Fu Chishang looked at Ruan Xiyan, not understanding why she did this.
He only caught a glimpse of Ruan Xiyan winking at him secretly, as if she had her own plans.
Fu Chishang had no choice but to play along and nodded in agreement, as he couldn't bear to let her go into the lion's den alone.
"Very good. From now on, you will be number eighteen and number nineteen in my household."
She had too many male favorites in her household, and she couldn't remember all their names, so she gave them code names in order, which made them much easier to remember.
Zhai Xinyu led the way, her face beaming with undisguised joy and pride; this trip had truly been very fruitful.
Ruan Xiyan and Fu Chishang obediently followed behind Zhai Xinyu toward the City Lord's Mansion.
"Tsk tsk tsk! That little tyrant got away with it again. I thought they would put up a fight, but who knew they would be so submissive? Those who are taken away are probably going to be in big trouble."
"This is the Chaotic City, where the city lord Zhai Hui can be said to have absolute power. When has the Little Tyrant ever failed in her attempts to abduct handsome men? Even if the Little Tyrant fails, her father will immediately take the man back to the city lord's mansion for her."
"In this chaotic city, it's safer to be ugly, so you're less likely to attract the attention of that little tyrant."
"......"
The people around were watching the spectacle with great interest.
Ruan Xiyan and the others followed Zhai Xinyu to the city lord's mansion.
Zhai Xinyu glanced at Ruan Xiyan and the others behind her, seemingly surprised that they would be so obedient.
After all, the men she had previously snatched all refused to cooperate, making a scene with tears, tantrums, and threats of suicide, which annoyed her greatly. Only by whipping them would they behave themselves.
This young man is not only exceptionally handsome, but also has such a unique personality, which makes her very happy.
"You few take them back to my residence first, I'm going to see my father." Zhai Xinyu said this to the attendants behind her.
"Yes," the guards replied, clasping their hands in greeting.
"Go to your room and wait for me. I'll be there in a bit." Just as Zhai Xinyu's hand was about to touch Ruan Xiyan's face, Ruan Xiyan subtly dodged it.
Zhai Xinyu didn't care about such a small detail and happily walked towards the courtyard of City Lord Zhai Hui.
Ruan Xiyan and the others were locked in a room by the guards, who then locked the door and left.
Only Ruan Xiyan and Fu Chishang remained in the room... Oh, and Zi Ren, who was brought along as an escort.
The room was decorated in a magnificent style; it was more like a small palace than a room, which showed how much Zhai Xinyu was favored.
Ruan Xiyan wandered around, looking at the decorations in the room.
Looking at the various tools on the table, including whips and ropes, with barbs on the whips, Ruan Xiyan raised an eyebrow. "Wow, they're really good at this."
No wonder she was able to torture many of her male lovers to death.
Although she had just arrived in Chaotic City, she already knew a thing or two about the local bullies.
Especially Zhai Xinyu, the young city lord of Chaotic City, is too famous, or rather, infamous. You can hear people whispering about her deeds as they wander around the city.
Which male concubine of the City Lord's Mansion died, and which unlucky fellow was brought back to the City Lord's Mansion by Zhai Xinyu today? These are sure to be the talk of the town.
Seeing Ruan Xiyan's calm and composed demeanor, Zi Ren couldn't help but speak up, "Sect Leader Ruan, this is not a place to play around. Why don't we think of a way to leave first?"
“Leave? We finally got in, why would we leave?” Ruan Xiyan glanced at Zi Ren. “However, getting you involved was truly an accident.”
She hadn't expected them to show up so suddenly.
"Huh? Aren't we leaving? What are we doing here?" Zi Ren asked, looking confused.
"It's alright, we're fine anyway." Fu Chishang looked at Ruan Xiyan with gentle eyes, "Xiao Xi, do you have any plans?"
Zi Ren scratched the back of his head in confusion. Weren't they here in the chaotic land because they had something to do? How come His Highness said they had nothing to do?
“Tear down this city lord’s mansion,” Ruan Xiyan said, enunciating each word clearly.
Hearing Ruan Xiyan's arrogant tone, Zi Ren almost choked on his own saliva.
As the city lord of Chaotic City, Zhai Hui has been a local tyrant for many years. His mansion is not so easy to overturn. This Sect Master Ruan is truly making a surprising statement.
Lord Ruan is irrational; His Highness is always calm and composed, and he will surely stop it.
The next moment, Fu Chishang replied, "Fine, I'll join Xiaoxi in tearing down the City Lord's Mansion."
Zi Ren sighed and facepalmed. "He's gone mad! Ever since His Highness met Sect Leader Ruan, he's been acting strangely too."
"Let me first investigate the layout of the City Lord's Mansion." Ruan Xiyan naturally understood that Zhai Hui had dominated the Chaotic City for many years and must have considerable resources.
A shadow bat flew out of the Beast-Suppressing Tower, and then silently flew out of the window.
"I never imagined that Xiao Xi would have the Shadow Bat," Fu Chishang remarked.
Shadowbats possess a unique talent: invisibility, making them excellent magical beasts for gathering intelligence.
Ruan Xiyan sat down in the chair. "It will take some time for the Shadow Bats to send back a message. Let's sit down and wait a while."
“Okay.” Fu Chishang nodded.
These two living ancestors were so nonchalant, which made him seem like he was making a fuss over nothing.
Is this what they call "the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is"? Bah! He's not a eunuch.
Zi Ren took a deep breath and decided to put his mind at ease.
Anyway, His Highness is not someone to be trifled with as the sect leader of the Snowfall Sect, so we'll deal with whatever comes our way.
After a short while, the Shadow Bat flapped its wings and flew to Ruan Xiyan, conveying some layout information of the City Lord's Mansion to her.
Ruan Xiyan put it back into the Beast Suppression Tower and said, "There are ten Supreme Realm experts in the City Lord's Mansion, two of whom are at the ninth level of the Supreme Realm."
“Besides Zhai Hui himself being a high-level pseudo-immortal, there is also a low-level pseudo-immortal powerhouse.”
Such a lineup could indeed dominate the chaotic city, but if that were all, Zhai Hui wouldn't have been the city lord for so many years.
After all, the chaotic land is not lacking in strong people. It is easy to be a local tyrant for a day or two, but it is not easy to sit in the position of local tyrant for a long time. The city lord's mansion must have some trump cards that she does not know.
The sword is on the string, it must be drawn. No matter what trump cards he's hiding, we'll force them all out when the time comes.
Ruan Xiyan was eager to get started and ready to make a big splash.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded at the door. Zhai Xinyu ordered someone to open the door and came in from outside.
"Young gentlemen, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Come and serve me together." Zhai Xinyu turned around, closed the door, and approached Ruan Xiyan.
Ruan Xiyan's lips curled into a bewitching smile. "Okay."
That unrestrained smile almost made Zhai Xinyu dizzy, especially when she heard that Ruan Xiyan had agreed, her face lit up with joy.
