Chapter 1,712 Forced to stay(2/2)
"This is impossible. If it is to sneak into the city lord's mansion, there is no need to cure the city lord. It should be just a coincidence."
A guest elder stood up and expressed his opinion.
If Liu Wuxie was a spy sent by the Wen family, why go to such trouble and just let the city lord die.
"Don't alarm them for now, entertain them well, and when it gets dark tomorrow, give them a sum of resources and send someone to keep an eye on them secretly."
Ye Guhai was always cautious in doing things and did not let go of any clues.
It was already late at night, and Liu Wuxie returned to the house, sat down cross-legged, moved, and continued to practice.
There are no fairy stones or other elixirs, so I can only take one step at a time.
If this continues, when will we be able to break through to the Immortal Realm?
Although the Taihuang world has been compressed, the immortal energy required is even more terrifying than before.
A hint of fish belly white appeared in the east, and Liu Wuxie withdrew from cultivation.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Wu, our lady has prepared breakfast, and I would like to ask you to show your respect."
The guard outside the door came in.
Chen An has already gotten up and is exercising in the yard.
Just at this time, Liu Wuxie walked out of the house.
Chen An looked at Liu Wuxie and asked for his opinion.
After what happened last night, Chen An unconsciously had to obey Liu Wuxie's arrangements for many things.
"Lead the way!"
Liu Wuxie had already expected it and asked them to lead the way.
A group of seven people followed the guards and walked through the corridor. A hall appeared in front of them, and a banquet had been set up.
"I have met Mr. Wu and Mr. Chen. I offended a lot of people last night. I will offer you a drink to apologize early this morning. Please don't mind."
Ye Linghan stood up and hugged them.
"Miss Ye, you're welcome. This is what we should do."
Chen An made peace and everyone took their seats.
Several guards had been hungry for a long time and began to feast.
Liu Wuxie picked up the wine glass and played with it gently in the palm of her hand.
From the moment he appeared until now, Ye Linghan looked at him five times in total, like testing and sizing him up.
"Thank you Mr. Wu for removing the poison from my father's body. This glass of water and wine expresses my respect."
Ye Linghan stood up, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
Liu Wuxie had no way to refuse, so she had to stand up and pour the wine into her mouth.
The two parties sat down separately. The meal was a bit dull. After the guards finished eating, they left wisely to make room for them to talk.
"Wu Xie, I'm full and I'll wait for you outside."
Chen An took a few bites, said hello to Liu Wuxie, and then nodded to Ye Linghan.
Everyone could see that Ye Linghan was entertaining Wu Xie, and they were just in attendance.
Ye Linghan waved his hand, and the guards standing on both sides all retreated, closing the door gently, leaving only the two of them.
"Miss Ye, if you have anything to say, just ask."
Liu Wuxie put down his wine glass and looked at Ye Linghan with a smile, a playful smile on his lips.
"When you left in a hurry last night, did you guess that my father was framed?"
Ye Linghan looked directly at Liu Wuxie. This was not the first time they had looked at each other, and each other's appearance had already been etched in his memory.
"yes!"
Now that Ye Linghan asked, he actually already had the answer in his heart, and Liu Wuxie didn't hide it.
If it were anyone else who saved the city lord, his first reaction would be how to gain benefits.
Liu Wuxie was just the opposite. Not only did she not want any benefits, she also couldn't wait to leave, which naturally attracted Ye Linghan's attention.
So they were forced to stay last night.
