There are so many shopkeepers standing outside the house. Although they are calm, everyone knows that these people must have intentions of coming today. Therefore, the guards outside the door did not dare to delay and had already gone in to report.
However, after a long time, the door of Prince Yan's Mansion was still not opened, which made the faces of everyone outside the mansion gradually darken.
"Could it be that His Highness has already seen those account books?" Shopkeeper Sun said with a trembling voice.
"Won't."
The martial arts master Peng Wei on the side immediately shook his head.
Although his expression was ugly, he was somewhat determined: "We are all very aware of His Highness's temper. Don't worry about whether the tricks in the account books can be seen through. Just the things in those documents are enough to kill you and me. Tens of thousands of times!”
"If His Highness had already seen it, how could he allow us to stand here calmly?"
After saying that, Peng Wei shook his head, with a fierce light in his tiger eyes, and said in a low voice: "The little thief acted decisively. He has taken advantage of us this time, and he must have some agenda. Seeing that he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, what is his mind?" To be so deep, I underestimated him!"
A shopkeeper in charge of water transportation also said in an evil voice: "This little thief thinks that he can do whatever he wants just by hugging Yuan Jingtao's lap. When this happens, I will appoint a noble man to make him look good!"
The last shopkeeper looked calm, looked at these people, and did not speak.
His silence made Peng Wei a little dissatisfied and said: "Shopkeeper Ai, why are you not in a hurry?"
Although this man is dressed in cloth, he is not very old. He looks calm and relaxed, as if he has someone to rely on.
Hearing Peng Wei's question, he smiled faintly, "Do you think I'm the kind of fool who leaves clues to make mistakes?"
As soon as these words came out, the other three people immediately changed their colors.
The deeper meaning behind his words, isn't he just calling them idiots for leaving behind evidence
"How difficult is it to make a ledger so flawless? Let alone such a vital thing as a correspondence document, how could Ai keep it with him every day? Naturally, he destroyed it after reading it."
Having said this, Shopkeeper Ai raised his head slightly, looked at the door of Prince Yan's Mansion, and said calmly: "Moreover, this Mr. Xiao Lu is very aggressive and has no scruples in doing things. It is not necessarily true that he only relies on Yuan Jingtao's majesty. .”
"What quality it is, we will find out when we meet Mr. Ge in person." Peng Wei gave him a deep look, but threatened in a cold voice: "But don't make any ulterior motives. Now the four of us are in the same boat. Whoever dares to cause trouble will be killed without mercy!"
He said this with murderous intent, which showed that it was not a good thing.
However, the other three people looked disapproving. Sitting in this seat, none of them were idiots. Now they were forced to join hands, but they were not working together, and each had their own little calculations.
Following Peng Wei's threats, several people were silent, but the shopkeeper Ai took out a summons and closed his eyes to activate it. The brilliance on the token was hesitant, and he didn't know which big shot he was talking to.
His behavior also reminded several other people, and they immediately took out the summons to communicate with the big shots behind him and find a way to calm the matter.
In the East Garden of Prince Yan's Mansion, Lu Li was resting in the residence assigned to him.
This elegant small courtyard is a benefit that only second-grade guards can enjoy. Logically speaking, he, a third-grade guard, is not qualified to stay, but Dongyuan assigned him this good courtyard. I wonder if it is Ge Xinyue's handiwork. , or it was the instruction of King Yan.
"It is full of spiritual energy and has a unique cave. There are some indescribable secrets in Prince Yan's Mansion."
Under a peach tree in the small courtyard, Lu Li rested his head on the roots of the tree, closed his eyes and sighed happily. "When I was in the Xuanjian Sect, I never had such a comfortable life. If anyone says anything bad about the Demon Sect in the future, I will blow their heads off."
After all, this imperial capital is inherited from ancient times and transformed into the ancient capital of saints and demons. It contains countless mysteries, and what the Yan Palace enjoys must be the most precious part of it.
The breath filled with spiritual energy made Lu Li relax for a long time. With a thought, the modifier interface appeared in front of him, and he silently sorted out his current strength.
"Prince Yan's Mansion is now in the ascendant. No matter how arrogant I am, there will always be someone who will back me up. But when this wind blows over, if those bastards want to settle the score, I must have some trump cards to protect myself."
With this thought in mind, Lu Li sat up straight, and then discovered that there were only two points left in the modifier.
"I almost forgot, upgrading to the Heart Sword Style cost me all my money..."
These two points were obtained by killing several Xuanjian Sect disciples when he and Mu Ningqiu escaped from the black prison.
Qiong Cheng's behavior immediately gave Lu Li a sense of crisis. With a sudden movement of energy, he opened his exploratory eyes and looked around to see if he could collect a few points.
King Yan's threat was like a sharp sword hanging in the air. For the sake of his own life, Lu Li forgot to collect points. Now that most of the things have been completed and the situation is unfolding, he is just waiting for the acceptance of the results, but it is time to seek some benefits for himself. .
"There is actually a large formation hidden here?"
As soon as he opened his exploratory eyes, he could see the auras of heaven and earth, and he really found something different in this small courtyard.
However, it is not a spiritual light that manifests points, but a stream of light flowing latent in the depths, repeating in a cycle with no end in sight.
"There's a treasure!" Without looking any further, Lu Li was already sure that at the end of these auras, there must be an incredible treasure.
Because of this kind of lines hidden deep in the depths, as if in another world, he had seen it in front of the gate of Xuanjian Sect's secret realm 'Sword Tomb'.
Such a familiar feeling means that there is a secret realm deep in the imperial capital, and it is more powerful than the sword tomb of Xuanjian Sect.
"If you can go to the secret realm and take a look, are you still worried about not having any points?"
Lu Li grinned, feeling quite longing in his heart.
"Land from."
At this moment, a cold female voice sounded outside the courtyard wall, interrupting his fantasy.
This was obviously Ge Xinyue's voice.
Lu Li quickly closed his probing eyes, turned over and walked out, smiling playfully and saying, "What are your orders from Sister Ge?"
Ge Xinyue was seen standing outside the courtyard wall, looking at Lu Li expressionlessly, "The trouble you caused is here."
Lu Li was not surprised, his smile did not change at all, "It seems they are not stupid enough yet."
"You sent people to take away their lives last night, weren't you afraid that they would fight with you?" Ge Xinyue felt that he was too courageous. Although he did it cleanly, he did not consider the consequences.
Now that those people were coming to her door, although Ge Xinyue was not afraid, she had no intention of stepping in to clean up the situation for Lu Li. She just wanted to see how he would respond.
As if unaware, Lu Li tied some loose hair back into a ponytail and said with a smile: "Sister Ge, don't worry, after today, they may not have the chance to fight with me for their lives."
After saying that, he walked out of the house.
Ge Xinyue's eyes flashed slightly, staring at his back, and after a long time, she followed him silently.
