She took off her clothes, took a bath in the tub, changed into clean clothes, and when she came out, she saw him standing outside the door. She couldn't help but smile knowingly: "I'm done, are you coming in?"
Hearing this, Guan Xilin turned around and looked at her. She was wearing a white dress, her black hair was dripping with water, her elegant face was slightly flushed because she had just taken a shower, and she looked much more energetic than before. Seeing her standing by the door and looking at him with a smile, he nodded, called the waiter downstairs to serve the food and wine, and then walked in.
Because the waiter was going to serve the food, the door was left open. The two sat down at the table. Guan Xiwei looked at her and asked, "When did you come here? How did you meet those mercenaries?"
"I thought you were all here, so I wanted to come and see if I could run into you. I was originally traveling with a training family, but later we separated and encountered the Nine-Headed Wolf Mercenary Group, and fell into their hands."
At this point, she paused, looked at him with her beautiful eyes, and said with a tone that could not hide her joy: "I tried to ask for help on the way, but I never had the chance. I didn't expect to meet you here."
"It is indeed dangerous for a woman like you to travel alone here, especially since some of the independent cultivators and mercenaries here are very strong, and the weak being eaten by the strong often happens. You are lucky to meet me here."
Guan Xilin smiled and said, "Actually, before this, I was captured by the demons and imprisoned for almost a year. I escaped recently and passed by here on my way back to Baichuan City to find Fengjiu."
Hearing this, Ye Jing exclaimed in shock: "What? You were captured by the demons? And you were imprisoned for nearly a year?"
"Well, it's a long story." He smiled and paused, then saw the waiter coming in with wine and food.
"Waiter, these are our restaurant's signature dishes." After the waiter served the food and wine, he left and closed the door for the two men.
Guan Xilin poured her a glass of wine and asked, "How have you been these past few years? Is anyone in the family urging you to do something?"
"No." She shook her head and smiled softly, "Since what happened that year, no one in the family wants to use me for marriage anymore."
Because they knew that she and Fengjiu knew each other, the family members did not dare to force her to marry someone else. In the past few years, she had been practicing hard, but she could not wait for him to come back, so she came here to look for him.
"That's good. I asked Xiaojiu to tell the people in the black market to take good care of you. But they didn't send any news about your arrival. Maybe it's because I'm imprisoned and can't receive any news!"
"How did you get into trouble with the demons here? I heard that the demon lord of the demon clan is very powerful and a formidable enemy." She looked at him worriedly.
"He is indeed a strong enemy." Guan Xilin nodded. "Not only is the Demon Lord powerful, but the ten demons under him are also very powerful. This time I was captured by one of the ten demons under the Demon Lord. Fortunately, my strength has improved a lot in the past year."
He spoke slowly, thinking, and said: "As far as I know, Xiaojiu has fought against the demons several times, and many of the ten demons have died in her hands. Maybe it is for this reason that the demon lord has set his sights on us!"
