Li Fengyun and Lu Xin arrived in Shencheng around the early morning of this day. Both of them were disguised and disguised. The above magic tricks covered their true energy fluctuations, quietly avoided Shencheng's surveillance, and went deep into the city to find Chen Qingming and others.

Generally speaking, monks who have reached a certain level of cultivation must make a precaution when entering and leaving big cities. Otherwise, those big people who can move mountains and fill the sea can easily come to a city with a population of over one million. This management risk is too high. Once an antisocial personality appears, it may cause thousands of casualties.

The head of a family with amazing strength and amazing status, such as Li Fengyun, has stricter restrictions on its actions, especially when visiting another city controlled by the seven major families, the rules that need to be followed are extremely cumbersome. Strictly speaking, the personal visits of Li Fengyun and Lu Xin are seriously non-compliant.

However, Chen Qingming and others lost contact in Shencheng for too long, and Qingyun City's eyeliner in Shencheng was also limited in its effect and was unable to give back useful information. Parents are anxious and cannot wait any longer. Therefore, they would rather violate the rules of Xiangzhou mainland than go to Shencheng to find out what they mean.

As expected, Li Fengyun discovered the traces of Chen Qingming and others and others. They were suffering from inhuman torture in the mansion of the deputy city lord in the inner city.

If it weren't for Lu Xin's repeated instructions to be cautious in doing things, Li Fengyun really had to rush in with his sword to save people. He had used 100,000 restraint before he retreated and discussed the next plan with Lu Xin.

And this retreat, I met Wang Jiu, and finally did not cause any trouble.

A moment later, the group of three came to the open-air barbecue restaurant recommended by Wang Jiu, found a table in the corner to sit down. After Wang Jiu skillfully ordered the dishes, he took advantage of the time to briefly summarize the experience during this period.

"On the birthday party, Chen Ruoshi arranged a marriage for Qingming and married the eldest son of Jinyucheng Zhao Jincheng..."

As a result, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Xin incredibly: "Marriage, marriage!? Chen Ruoshi decided this kind of thing alone? He didn't ask for our opinions on Qingming's marriage!?"

Wang Jiuqi said: "Will you agree?"

"Of course not!"

"Then why ask for your opinions?"

"What logic is this?!" Lu Xin almost angrily wanted to slap the table, which immediately attracted the attention of the boss waiter and others. Lu Xin realized that he had lost his composure, shook his head, and bowed to the boss to express his apology.

The boss was also a generous person. He nodded and said to Wang Jiu: "Control your child well."

Lu Xin's face turned pale on the spot, and he wanted to slap the entire barbecue restaurant with a slap. Li Fengyun pulled his sleeve and suppressed his anger.

"What happened later?" Lu Xin asked.

Wang Jiu said: "Later, the two sides exchanged their opinions on marriage issues frankly and reached an agreement on some historical issues about Chen Yue'e."

It took Lu Xin a while to interpret the correct meaning: "In short, Qingming disagrees? Yes, with her personality, how could she agree to such a ridiculous marriage? But it's strange that the eldest son of Jinyucheng is willing to cooperate with Chen Ruoshi's nonsense?"

Wang Jiu said: "Zhao Jincheng fell in love with Qingming at first sight and was deeply in love."

"Eh?" Lu Xin was surprised, "Love at first sight?"

"Yes, he showed great appreciation for Qingming's highly refined physical qualities, so he hit it off with Shen Ruoshi."

Lu Xin took some time to correctly interpret the word highly refined physical quality, and his face became even blue, his hands clenched his fists, and the joints kept crackling.

"This is a pervert!"

Wang Jiu looked at Lu Xin with a little strangeness, not understanding what is perverted in appreciating the refined body, especially Lu Xin himself is a pretty good example of the refined body...

"Anyway, Qingming disagreed with the marriage, so Chen Ruoshi put you all under house arrest? No wonder he lost contact for so long, so what about now? Qingming..."

Wang Jiu briefly explained the subsequent development, mainly including their group trying to set up an ambush to kill Zhao Jincheng with the support of two deputy city lords, and Chen Ruoshi's mother Gu Yueqin appeared to end the farce in the dilemma.

"In other words, is Chen Yueying, the current chief in Shencheng?"

Wang Jiu said: "From the current power structure of the City Lord's Mansion, Chen Yueying is indeed in charge of the overall situation. The overtime documents issued to Qingming and Wanqing and the others in the past few days are all from Chen Yueying."

"It's her..." When talking about the name Chen Yueying, Lu Xin showed a very complicated look. It was complicated for a long time, but he didn't get a response from the people around him. He immediately kicked him angrily.

"You have no objection to the surname Li?"

Li Fengyun woke up as if he was dreaming and hurriedly said, "Sorry, I just..."

"I'm distracted again!" Lu Xin felt that he wanted to slap the table again, "Didn't you agree that you're absolutely not distracted during Operation Shencheng!?"

"No, I just saw an acquaintance."

"Acquaintance? Here?" Lu Xin said curiously, "Who?"

"Yueying."

"……who?"

"Chen Yueying." Li Fengyun repeated the full name seriously, then pointed to a beautiful figure at the corner of the street in front, "It's right there."

Looking along the direction of Li Fengyun's finger, he saw that the deputy city lord of Shencheng was covering his mouth with his hands and looking at this side incredibly, his expression seemed to be about to cry, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

However, this scene flashed and the next moment, Chen Yueying at the corner of the street disappeared. The woman came to the dining table of the three of them in a blink of an eye and looked at Li Fengyun with an extra melancholy look.

Li Fengyun felt a little uncomfortable by this gaze. Seeing that Lu Xin was by his side, he had no intention of speaking at all, so he had to exert his subjective initiative and said, "Sorry, there is already someone in this table."

Chen Yueying didn't care about this sentence at all, but just turned her gaze into a gentler light.

It was not until Lu Xin felt very uncomfortable that Chen Yueying said, "Fengyun, it's been a long time since we met."

Li Fengyun was silent for a moment and said, "I'm sorry, you recognized the wrong person. I'm not Li Fengyun, my name is Wang Wu, and I'm from Liantian City..."

When he spoke, Li Fengyun spoke very seriously, because before he and Lu Xin set out from Qingyun City, they had been repeatedly advised that this trip was a secret operation and that the identity must not be exposed. So he specially designed an identity for himself and put on a mask to cover his face. At this time, when Chen Yueying raised the issue of identity, he immediately brought out the story he had carefully designed for a long time.

As a result, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chen Yueying: "Have I ever said your name is Li Fengyun? That Li, you are not asking for advice."

Li Fengyun was silent for a moment and said, "Because someone had mistaken me for Li Fengyun before, I would clarify that way, but I am really not Li Fengyun, I am Wang Wu, from Liantian City."

Chen Yueying suddenly laughed: "It's much smoother than before. If you can't deny it before, you will only be distracted and escape from reality..."

As he said that, his smile gradually disappeared and turned into a deep sadness.

"Sister Yue'e has really changed you a lot."

As soon as he finished speaking, a child who had been neglected by the two of them could no longer sit still.

"What does it have to do with Shen Yue'e? I made up the story for him. I taught him how to deal with the flaws when asked about them!"

Chen Yueying seemed to have seen Lu Xin before, lowered her head and asked in surprise: "Fengyun, is this your daughter you gave birth to later?"

The blood vessels in Lu Xin's temples suddenly seemed to burst.

"Chen Yueying, stop pretending to be crazy and stupid!"

Chen Yueying shook her head and held back her smile: "Who was pretending to be crazy and stupid first? The head of the Li family insisted on disguising himself and ran to Shencheng secretly. I caught him on the spot. I also wanted to argue what it was Liantiancheng Wang Wu. Which side do you think is more like pretending to be crazy and stupid?"

Lu Xin snorted coldly and cleverly chose to change the topic: "Where is Qingming and the others?"

When Chen Qingming mentioned, Chen Yueying was just starting to look up and bowed to the two very seriously: "On behalf of Shen Cheng, I would like to express my sincere apology to you. My father was old and confused, and the demon in his heart almost made a big mistake. Now he has stepped down as the city lord and punished himself for death. Next, I will be the acting city lord and will compensate Shen Cheng for this matter. Although I know that no matter what I do, it is just a matter of repairing the sheep, I still hope to obtain your forgiveness."

Chen Yueying's sincere words touched Li Fengyun and his wife. The two pondered for a moment, and Li Fengyun asked first: "Is he ready to overcome the inner demon disaster?"

Chen Yueying said with a heavy expression: "Yes, this absurdity is all caused by the old obsession that triggered the inner demon. He has been in wars throughout his life, and has experienced many battles. He claims to be as strong as steel, but unexpectedly, such a big mess will occur this time... So he has to close the death gate and never leave the gate before completely clearing the inner demon."

When Li Fengyun heard this, he sighed lightly, and his anger towards Chen Ruoshi dissipated a lot.

How easy is it to completely eliminate the inner demon? It is the norm for cultivators to cultivate immortals. Only by reaching the highest level of the Void Breaking Realm can one cultivate a perfect glass heart. Before this, there will always be one or another flaws in the mind. Chen Ruoshi's death barrier is really going to be dead.

He is only 100 years old this year. With the average lifespan of a monk in the Inverted Sea Realm, he is not even considered old. He will still be a person who can shake the entire Xiangzhou in the next few decades... Now, because of a ridiculous period, he has permanently exiled himself. This regret and price is indeed worth sighing.

Chen Yueying said again: "The deputy city lord Jinghai failed to stop the city lord in time in this matter, but instead added fuel to the fire and applied for self-exile... I did not agree, but gave him a year's leave. In other words, in the next year, I will be the head of Shencheng. Just come to me if you have any problems."

Before the two of them could taste the taste of this sentence, Chen Yueying listened to the serious suggestion: "Of course, I will also strive to have more opportunities to visit Qingyun City, and do my best to promote friendship between the two families."
