"This ...... Please also ask the envoy of Tan to make it clear!" Ning Wuji was obviously stunned, he didn't expect the envoy of this dynasty to be so direct.

Still, he pretended to know nothing.

"Has there been a guest in the Ning Mansion these days?" the Tan envoy asked lightly.

"Exactly, he is an old friend of mine, but unfortunately, he has already left today! If I had known that the Tan Envoy was interested in him, I would have let him stay for one more day!" Ning Wuji said with a look of regret.

"Old friend, when did City Lord Ning have such a powerful old friend?" The Tan envoy looked at Ning Wuji with an indifferent expression and said.

Ning Wuji is only in the Yuan Infant Stage now, which is already a very good strength among the city lords of the third-level city. However, when Cheng Yu left, he was already secretly investigating Cheng Yu.

found that Cheng Yu's strength was unfathomable, and even he couldn't find out what kind of strength it was. And he is in the early stage of the merger, so a simple judgment is that the other party is at least the strength of the Mahayana period.

It is not an exaggeration to say that one primordial infant period and one Mahayana period are one earth and one heaven. How could a small city lord of Ningshui City have an old friend of a master of the Mahayana period?

Ever since he got the news five days ago that someone had entered the Ning Mansion, he had been sending people to investigate this big man. However, it had little effect, and he originally wanted to use Steward Pang of Ning Mansion, but he learned that Steward Pang had been expelled from Ning Mansion by Ning Wuji.

Casually, his subordinates found Steward Pang, and learned from Steward Pang that he was expelled from Ning Mansion by Ning Wuji when his identity was discovered by that big man.

Although there is not much news from Steward Pang's mouth, it is certain that there is a secret between the two of them.

The dynasty sent him to Ningshui City to investigate Ning Wuji, but in the past year, there was no suspicious entry into Ning Mansion, which made him very annoyed.

Because if he didn't find out the murderer who destroyed the Fang family in the first place, he would have no way to return to the dynasty. Now that this somewhat mysterious big man appeared, it naturally made him quite suspicious.

Moreover, Xu Yan was in the late stage of the merger, and even he was captured alive, so this person's strength is at least in the Mahayana period, which is somewhat consistent with this big man.

Therefore, he was even more suspicious that this big man was the murderer who killed the Fang family in the first place, that is, one of those mysterious black-robed people.

It's just that in the past five days, he didn't have the opportunity to send someone into Ning Mansion to find out the news between the two of them.

Now that Dahan has left, in order to avoid startling the snake, he first sent someone to follow Dahan. Then come to Ningfu to inquire about the news, if this big man is really the murderer at the beginning, then he must not be allowed to escape.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that Ning Wuji is hiding the truth and is unwilling to tell the truth!

"This is actually an old friend I met by chance, and I didn't know the strength of this old friend at the time. Ning Wuji knew that this messenger surnamed Tan would not easily believe him, but it was impossible for him to tell Cheng Yu's true identity no matter what.

"City Lord Ning, you should know that you can have your current status because of the support of our dynasty. And our dynasty has always needed a loyal man.

If City Lord Ning can't cooperate with me, it won't be easy for me to return to the dynasty, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to keep the position of City Lord Ning at that time!"

"Tan envoy, the dynasty's cultivation grace to Ning, Ning has never dared to forget. But what I just said is true, that big man is indeed my old friend, please Tan Envoy to find out!" Ning Wuji said with sincere fear.

Although the position of the lord of the city is important to him, the life of his daughter is even more important to him. He couldn't have betrayed his daughter for the position of a city lord.

Moreover, because of the oppression of the dynasty, he had already betrayed his daughter once and had to marry her to Fang Qingping.

Fortunately, he was rescued by Cheng Yu later, otherwise, his daughter still knows what the result would be.

If the dynasty really wanted to remove him from the position of city lord, he wouldn't care. Although he may no longer be able to get the guarantee of resources in the future, he has at least regained his free body, and he does not have to live this kind of intrigue anymore.

"Hmph! It seems that the city lord Ning is determined to hide the truth. I won't go around in circles with you anymore, was your daughter saved by him?" Seeing that the threat to Ning Wuji had no effect, the Tan envoy no longer had any patience, and asked directly.

"Tan envoy, where do you start with this? My daughter Wushuang has not been seen since she married into the Fang family. The Fang family suffered a great calamity and was destroyed in one day, and now that it has been more than a year, I don't even know whether my daughter is alive or dead, how can this friend of mine be the one who saved my daughter?" Ning Wuji said with a sad face.

"In that case, then you can prove that you are innocent, and your friend is not the murderer who killed the Fang family back then?"

"Tan envoy, didn't you deliberately embarrass me? This friend of mine has come and gone without a trace, and he is usually the only one looking for me, and now that he has left, where can I help you find him back?

Moreover, everything I just said is true, how dare I deceive the messenger if I am sitting upright and sitting upright?" Ning Wuji said with a bitter face.

Although the Tan Envoy's face was ugly, and he had even flipped the cards with Ning Wuji, he had no evidence now, and he couldn't really do anything to Ning Wuji.

After all, everything he has now is just speculation, and besides, he has already sent someone to follow those people. If they found out the truth by then, it would not be too late to take tough measures against Ning Wuji.

He had thought about using torture on Ning Wuji, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it. Ning Wuji has a resolute personality, even if he is tortured, he may not be able to force him to comply, everything will wait for the result over there.

"Since City Lord Ning said so, Tan has no reason not to believe in City Lord Ning's loyalty. However, I may need to disturb the Ning Mansion for a while during this time!" the Tan envoy calmed down and looked at Ning Wuji and said.

"The Tan Envoy is willing to stay in Ning Mansion, that is Ning's honor, I will let people arrange the room, and at the same time let people put down the wine and delicacies, and wash the dust for the Tan Envoy!" Ning Wuji was also relieved to see that the Tan Envoy did not continue to press, and his heart was also relieved.

He didn't think it was a good thing for the Tan envoy to stay in Ningfu, it was clear that he wanted to stay in Ningfu to monitor him.

However, now that Cheng Yu is gone, and his daughter is fine, he doesn't care anymore. Even if this surnamed Tan stays with him for a long time, he doesn't care.

The Tan envoy nodded and didn't say anything more, letting Ning Wuji arrange everything for him.

Originally, when the big man was still in Ning Mansion, he wanted to come over. But he felt that he had no evidence to prove that Dahan was the murderer who killed the Fang family, and in the end, it was better not to startle the snake, so he held back.
