Chapter 593: Emotions and Bad Guys

"The City Lord's Mansion..."

Xiu Chen changed his mind.

If that group of people is really in Twilight City, it's hard to say whether they have anything to do with the City Lord's Mansion. You might as well go and check.

Xiu Chen left a broken piece of silver for the old man and left in a hurry. When the old man saw the broken piece of silver, he was about to say something, but found that the gentleman he had just chatted with had disappeared.

"We don't need so much..."

A piece of broken silver is probably as much as his day's income.

Xiuchen didn't think much of it. Although he was poor, he didn't have Dachen Tongxing's copper coins, so he could only reluctantly pay a small piece of silver.

Families that were not already wealthy have once again become worse off.

The senior brothers and sisters did not find out any information, and returned to the inn listlessly in the evening. Their faces were extremely gloomy, and the second senior sister was even anxious and wanted to cry.

The more I can't find anything, the more scared I feel.

The senior brother wanted to comfort the junior brothers and sisters, so he ordered a few dishes and wanted everyone to eat something first, but they all felt that they had no appetite. The senior brothers sat in front of the table and stared at the table of dishes in a daze.

"I haven't found any information here."

"Me too."

"Could it be that those people have never been to Twilight City?"

Now, the senior brother is also beginning to doubt himself. Did they choose the wrong direction from the beginning?

Just when the senior brothers were frowning, there was a voice from the table next to them that interested them.

"Hey, have you heard? There were monsters here a few days ago. I feel like it's not safe here. Let's leave as soon as we finish this business."

"What are you afraid of? Don't you think there are immortals from the Taoist sect coming to get rid of the monsters? The monsters are probably dead long ago. Even if there are still monsters alive, isn't there still the City Lord's Mansion here?"

"But how can those soldiers in the city lord's palace be the monster's opponent? It's not enough to go up and stuff their teeth. When the time comes, the monster will have to dislike them and stuff their teeth."

"Tch, who's talking about those little soldiers? I'm talking about the experts from the City Lord's Mansion."

Sitting at the next table were two businessmen, one dressed gorgeously and the other a little more plainly.

The man in simple clothes looked a little timid, but the man in gorgeous clothes was very confident, as if he had everything under control.

The man in gorgeous clothes suddenly started to look around, then became sneaky, and lowered his voice and said to the person in front of him:

"Let me tell you a secret. In fact, there are many experts in the city lord's palace, who are no worse than the immortals of Dao Sect. Most people don't know this, so don't let me know."

The man in simple clothes nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, I won't say anything."

The man kept his voice very low, and normally no one would be able to hear it, but the senior brothers at the table next to them are all ascetics, and their hearing and eyesight are very sharp, so even in the somewhat noisy inn lobby, they could not hear it.

Heared everything clearly, word for word.

"Brother, what do you think?"

"Go to the city lord's mansion and test it out."

The senior brothers were not in the mood to eat, so they stood up to pay the bill and planned to go directly to the City Lord's Mansion.

The two businessmen also ate something casually and then checked out and left.

As soon as the two businessmen left the inn, they found an inconspicuous corner. Seeing no one around, the businessman in simple clothes turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared, while the businessman in gorgeous clothes also suddenly changed.

He transformed into a young and elegant gentleman.

It's Xiuchen.

In fact, there were no businessmen who knew the news. Everything just happened was made up by Xiu Chen. He had already gone to the City Lord's Mansion, but he didn't find any powerful people, nor was there any trace of the Fourth Senior Sister.

But the City Lord's Mansion is indeed very different. There are many places where his spiritual consciousness cannot be probed, as if there are some restrictions blocking it.

This city lord's mansion is absolutely extraordinary.

Over at the City Lord's Mansion, Senior Brother and the others have arrived. Without making any more cover-ups, they directly revealed their identity as Dao Sect disciples.

The disciples of the Dao Sect were in such high status that even the prince did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly came out to greet him.

"Three immortals are here. The little king has come a long way to welcome you. Please forgive me for being a little distant. Please come in and have a rest. The little king has already prepared a dinner for these immortals."

"Your Majesty, why don't you ask me why I'm here?"

"Whatever the Immortal said, if the sect has any instructions, the three of you can speak directly, and the little king will definitely obey them without any ambiguity."

What he said was so awe-inspiring that people almost believed his lies.

Because the prince was too enthusiastic, the senior brothers could not refuse, so they went to the dinner party with the prince. After all, he was the prince of Dachen. Although he was a former prince, he was still a relative of the emperor, so he had to give him this face.

Although they had no appetite, the senior brothers still ate some. The third senior brother was impatient and didn't want to perfunctory any more. He cupped his hand and asked:

"Your Majesty, my junior sister came here to slay demons a few days ago, but she hasn't returned yet. If you know anything, please tell us. If you can help us find our junior sister, we will be very grateful in the future!"

The prince looked embarrassed, spread his hands, and sighed.

"Since I arrived in this city, I have been working hard every day to cure this city. However, I am not talented enough to achieve anything. I can only protect the safety of the people. I have not made any mistakes for decades. The monster is here

What you have done makes me deeply saddened. The sect is willing to take action to get rid of this monster for the people. I am very grateful! But I really don’t know about the disappearance of my junior sister.”

The words in this passage are sincere and do not appear to be fake.

The elder brother then asked:

"Some people say that there are many experts in the City Lord's Mansion, who are even more powerful than our Dao Sect disciples. City Lord, is this true or false?"

The eldest brother's tone was full of suspicion, and he also carried a hint of the beast's aura to suppress others with force. It would be difficult for ordinary people to tell lies under such questioning, and even if they lied, they would reveal some unnaturalness.

"This is absolutely not the case! If there are experts in my city lord's palace, how can I allow that monster to harm people? This is someone spreading rumors to hurt me."

The prince acted very calmly, and the senior brother did not notice any trace of lying in his tone, but he always felt that something was wrong.

The topic seemed to come to an abrupt end, and everyone began to drink, eat, and chat normally. They also talked about daily routines, national affairs, and people's livelihood.

In the middle of the conversation, the third senior brother suddenly sniffed, then stood up and sniffed around, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Strange, I seem to be hearing a familiar floral fragrance."

The prince's hand that was picking up the vegetables shook for a moment. Soon, but his senior fellow apprentices noticed it.

"There is a garden in the backyard, and the flowers are blooming just right now. You should smell the fragrance of the flowers in the garden."

The prince seemed to behave naturally, but the brothers felt something was wrong.

Having been in the company of wild beasts all year round, they are the most sensitive to the emotions revealed by living creatures. The prince now has a hint of hostility towards them, although it is almost imperceptible.

"Speaking of which, where will you stay now? If you don't mind, why not stay in my City Lord's Mansion? There are many empty rooms in the City Lord's Mansion, and the conditions for living here will be better."

The senior brother showed a playful smile.
