After talking with Long Jiu for a whole day, Zhuo Fan respectfully sent him away after clarifying all the things he wanted to know, and then decided to retreat for one month to recuperate.
Within this month, he hadn't seen anyone, just healed his wounds calmly. With the healing medicine sent by Long Jiu, his injury was healed within ten days, but it was a pity that the blood infant's injury was more serious, and it was not until more than twenty days later that he basically recovered.
Soon, January time passed in a hurry, and Zhuo Fan opened the door to stretch his muscles and bones. The long-lost fresh air made him refreshed. Moreover, in the last few days, he and his blood infants have also broken through to the five-level Qi gathering realm. Thinking about it this way, this injury is not too bad.
It's just that the two Nether Valley elders of the Sky Profound Realm, with a strong cultivation base, died in vain, but it was a pity. If possible, he really wanted to draw all the power of the profound realm master that day.
Well, he now estimates that it is not only the fifth level of Qi Gathering, but he may even break through the Bone Forging Realm.
"Ah, it's Butler Zhuo..."
Suddenly, a young girl screamed, Xiao Cui was taken aback when he saw Zhuo Fan retreating, and then she turned and ran away with a happy expression on her face.
Zhuo Fan was taken aback, feeling inexplicably, his hand touched his cheek unconsciously. Could it be said that after she came out of retreat, did anything change? Why did the little girl turn around and ran away when she saw herself
He wasn't a man-eating monster, was it so terrible
But soon, he figured it out again.
It must be because he was too rude when he came back from catching Xiao Cui, and then took off her clothes, leaving a shadow on the little girl's heart, just like he always beat Luo Yunhai before.
Thinking of this, Zhuo Fan couldn't help but chuckled secretly, whether he was too rude to these two little guys before.
"Brother Zhuo, are you healed from your injury?"
At this time, another rough voice sounded, and Zhuo Fan looked up, and it was Pang who was in charge of the boss.
"Lao Pang!"
Zhuo Fan laughed, and walked towards Commander Pang. This leader Pang was regarded as the first friend he recognized after he was reborn.
However, Commander Pang just wanted to step forward to give Zhuo Fan a man-like hug, but his face changed slightly, as if he had remembered something, he immediately turned and ran away.
At this moment, Zhuo Fan was completely stunned.
The little maid of Xiaocui is fine, why even Lao Pang turned his head when he saw him
Zhuo Fan frowned deeply, not knowing why. I thought for a while, but I couldn't figure it out.
Although when he negotiates and fights with people, he can always anticipate the enemy's first opportunity and figure out the heart of every opponent. But that's because he always determined one thing, that everyone's actions must have some kind of benefit and purpose.
But Lao Pang's performance made him wonder.
He has never done anything to hurt him, so he shouldn't be afraid of himself. But since he has no fear, he sees himself running away.
Zhuo Fan couldn't figure it out, so he shook his head and didn't think about it. His Demon Sovereign is a person who does big things, so there is no need to worry about this little thing.
However, just as he was about to leave, Lei Yuting's figure appeared in front of him again, with a food container in his hand. Behind her, followed by Xiao Cui who just ran away.
The charming body hid behind Lei Yuting, showing a small head to look at Zhuo Fan from time to time.
"What the hell?" Zhuo Fan looked puzzled and stood still.
Lei Yuting came with small steps, not as vigorous as usual, but with a feeling of being a bird, when she looked at Zhuo Fan, her cheeks also blushed: "Uh, butler Zhuo. Thank you for saving me that day. This is a little bit of my heart, please accept it."
With that, Lei Yuting handed the food box over, and Zhuo Fan took it suspiciously and opened it slowly.
In an instant, the smell of incense completely enveloped him. Exquisite dishes are placed there, and you can see that they were made with great care.
"smell good!"
Zhuo Fan couldn't help but praised it, and looked at Lei Yuting and said, "Where did you buy it? Does Fenglincheng have such a good restaurant?"
"Huh, I didn't buy it." At this time, Xiao Cui jumped out and smiled playfully, "This is what my lady spends ten hours a day to make, and I will wait for the day when Mr. Zhuo leaves the customs to taste it!"
every day
Zhuo Fan then understood why Xiao Cui ran as soon as he saw him. It turned out that he ran to report to Lei Yuting.
Because Lei Yuting didn't know when he would leave the customs, he had to prepare dishes to wait for him every day. This persistence really moved him.
Nodded slightly, Zhuo Fan took a deep look at her and said lightly: "You have a heart, I will accept this gift."
The corners of her mouth were slightly squeezed, Lei Yuting's cheeks were instantly flushed, she hung her head slightly and did not dare to lift up, and murmured: "Steward Zhuo has just recovered from his injury and needs to recuperate. You should go back and eat. It’s not good for your health if it’s cold."
"that's right!"
Zhuo Fan nodded and took the food box back to the room. He hadn't eaten for a month anyway, and with his Qi Gathering Realm cultivation base, he was indeed a little hungry now.
Lei Yuting took Xiao Cui and followed in shyly. There was a gentle light in his eyes, like a glacier melted by the scorching sun.
However, Zhuo Fan didn't wait for Zhuo Fan to feast on it, "Puff Puff Puff", with a knock on the door, Luo Yunchang's slender shadow appeared in front of the door, followed by Pang Commander behind her.
Unconsciously raising his brows, Zhuo Fan looked into her hand, which was actually a food box.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that someone had brought breakfast to Butler Zhuo. I was really worried about it."
Luo Yunshang saw Zhuo Fan's food box on the table, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up in a charming arc, but his eyes shot away like a sharp sword. It seems that all people who are seen can be shot out full of holes.
"What's wrong with this girl today, such a big temper?" Zhuo Fan's brows couldn't help but he was very puzzled. When he looked at the leader of Pang behind Luo Yunchang, he only saw that old Pang gave him a helpless look. , Making him even more inexplicable.
bump!
With a loud noise, Luo Yunchang placed the food box in front of Zhuo Fan, squeezing out a smiling face: "Steward Zhuo, this lady did it for you personally, I hope you take good care of your body."
"But I already have one, and I am not a rice bucket, so there is no need to eat so much."
Zhuo Fan shrugged, planning to push Luo Yunshang's food box back, but suddenly felt a real killing intent. Looking up, he saw Luo Yunchang's vicious eyes staring at him closely.
"Uh, I will try both."
For no reason, Zhuo Fan actually flinched for the first time in his life. Even he himself didn't know how he did it at the time, but he felt that if he didn't do this, it might be life-threatening.
However, when he opened Luo Yunshang's food box, looking at more than half of the dishes that were already scorched, his appetite instantly went down for the most part.
"Uh... I think I'd better eat this."
Zhuo Fan turned to reach out for Lei Yuting's food container, Lei Yuting showed a bright smile.
However, Zhuo Fan has not yet received his hand, and with a touch, Luo Yunchang has already pressed the food box firmly on the table, looking at him with a grieving expression: "You just said that it is two together. food."
Zhuo Fan's brows trembled, and when he looked at Luo Yunchang's burnt dishes, he suddenly hesitated in his heart.
But looking at her sincere eyes, Zhuo Fan couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded and took both food boxes in front of him: "Well, let's eat together."
Hearing this, Luo Yunchang's eyes smiled into a crescent moon, but Lei Yuting curled his lips in disdain.
"Eat mine first." Luo Yunchang said anxiously.
"No, eat mine first." Lei Yuting hurriedly said.
In an instant, the eyes of the two women were intertwined, and there seemed to be thunder lights flashing inside.
Zhuo Fan wondered in his heart, didn't these two people be okay before he retreats? He still didn't understand why the two of them became like this, and who caused it.
"Come first, come second, I'll try Miss Lei's first."
Zhuo Fan waved his hand and took the lead in taking a bite of Lei Yuting's food. With big watery eyes, Lei Yuting kept staring at him, waiting for his response.
Zhuo Fan gave a thumbs up and praised: "Good cooking!"
Upon hearing this, Lei Yuting immediately smiled into a flower. The maid on the side, Xiaocui, raised her head proudly, and said loudly: "My lady can cook at the age of ten. No one in Fenglincheng can surpass my lady's craftsmanship. Butler Zhuo, you have a good taste. ."
Xiao Cui's laughter made Lei Yuting look embarrassed, but the corner of her mouth turned into a happy arc.
When Luo Yunchang saw it, he couldn't help pouting, and hurriedly said: "Zhuo Fan, try mine."
Nodded, Zhuo Fan took another bite of Luo Yunchang's food. However, as soon as he put it in his mouth, he vomited it out again without hesitation.
"Poisons are better than this." Zhuo Fan said relentlessly, and then picked up Lei Yuting's food container, "I'd better eat this."
Hearing these words, Lei Yuting smiled, and Luo Yunchang's eyes burst into tears for an instant.
"Wow, it smells so good!"
At this time, Luo Yunhai suddenly yelled, broke into Zhuo Fan's house, and said in surprise: "Brother Zhuo, you are out of the customs, and there are so many delicious foods, why do you have to give me a bite?"
"Go go, eat what your sister made." With a wave of his hand, Zhuo Fan drove Luo Yunhai away.
Luo Yunhai's face paled, and he complained: "My sister does not know how to cook, she doesn't even know in which direction the kitchen door is opened."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yunchang ran out carrying the food box. It's just that people can clearly see that there are drops of water stains on the ground.
"Uh, what did I say wrong?" Luo Yunhai didn't understand, so he looked at everyone suspiciously.
"You didn't say anything wrong." Zhuo Fan ate up Lei Yuting's dishes three times, stood up and walked out: "It's just that some people are overpowering. I'll go to Qianlong Pavilion. You stay here. Now, don't go out, in case the people in Nether Valley are still around."
Commander Luo Yunhai and Commander Pang nodded, and when they turned to look at Lei Yuting, they saw that her face was flushed, and Xiao Cui on the side was even more excited: "Miss, great, it seems that Steward Zhuo is more fond of Miss Zhuo. ."
Lei Yuting smiled without saying a word, and nodded slightly.
At the same time, within the imperial capital.
Two people sitting side by side in a magnificent study, one about forty years old, dressed in a white robe with golden silk, with a jade crown, and a moustache at the corner of his mouth often shakes, as if forever full of smiles.
The other was an old man in his fifties, with a gloomy expression and a black cloak. A pair of big copper bell eyes were full of suffocation.
Although the two were sitting side by side, neither one looked at each other, like strangers.
Cough cough cough...
Suddenly, accompanied by an old cough, a slightly rickety body appeared in front of the two of them. It was an old man in a golden robe, probably in his seventies, with nine golden dragons embroidered on his robe.
"See Your Majesty!"
Seeing the old man's arrival, the two hurriedly stood up and bowed deeply to the old man.
Waved his hand, the old man coughed a few more times, sat opposite them, frowned and said, "Qianlong Pavilion and Netherworld Valley are both the imperial family of the seventh family, the pillar of the empire. I wonder why you came to see me this time? "
This old man is the emperor of Yu Empire today!
"Enjoy your majesty, Qianlong Pavilion killed my two elders in Nether Valley a month ago, breaking the agreement of the Seventh Family. Please call the shots and punish Qianlong Pavilion severely!" The black-robed man hurriedly clasped his fists and cried.
With a cold smile, the middle-aged man curled his lips in disdain: "You Wanshan, you are ashamed to sue first? Your elder of Nether Valley trespassed into my Qianlong Pavilion territory, so how to count, who is breaking the Seven-Family Agreement? ?"
"My disciple Youquan in the valley was killed in Fenglin City. Shouldn't I send an elder to investigate?" You Wanshan narrowed his eyes and said viciously, "Long Yifei, you are taking revenge on this 20 years ago. Thing."
"Hahaha... What about revenge? Twenty years ago, my elder Qianlong Pavilion was deceived to Luoye City by you and ruined one of his eyes. You said he violated the Seven-Family Agreement and entered your territory without authorization. , I won’t say anything. This time, your elders ran to our territory and went to four at one time. Is this an investigation?"
"enough!"
At this moment, the emperor gave a cold cry, and the turbid old eyes rarely flashed fierce killings: "This matter, both sides are wrong. I pass my will and Qianlong Pavilion will withdraw from Fenglin City. There will be no future there. It's your territory again. The people in Netherworld Valley and Qianlong Pavilion will not be allowed to step into Fenglincheng for life."
"His Majesty!"
The two clasped their fists together, but the emperor flicked his sleeves and shouted coldly: "That's it, retreat. From now on, I don't want to hear about Qijia any more, and there will be any more disputes."
"Yes!"
After gritting their teeth, both of them were unwilling, but they had no choice but to bow and retreat.
When the two of them left, the emperor's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said indifferently: "The people of Nether Valley will actually go to Fenglin City. It seems that they have already known the secret order thousands of years ago."
"This imperial city has always been a place of right and wrong, and the eyes and ears of the major forces are all scattered in it. Your Majesty should have known this." At this time, an old male voice suddenly sounded behind the emperor.
The emperor smiled and nodded slightly: "It seems... that plan should be launched. Pearl will always shine, hehehe..."
