Shen Lingyue and Xuanyuan Xi's luck was still good, the two personal guards that the two of them caught happened to be in shift time, and when they went to replace the other two personal guards, they were caught by the two.

This was a great opportunity to get close to the city lord, and the two of them didn't want to miss it.

They felt as if a big hand was invisibly pulling them into here, and if they wanted to leave here, they would need to rescue the people here from the demons.

The lord of the castle is the key person in solving these problems.

Shen Lingyue and Xuanyuan Xi pretended to be the two personal guards, and came to the city lord's study with ease.

The other two personal guards were already waiting a little impatiently, and when they saw them coming, they hurried out and asked very unhappily, "Why are you here?" ”

Shen Lingyue smiled and said, "Hehe, brother, didn't we have some accident? Is this good, will I invite the two brothers to dinner another day to make amends?"

The two personal guards let them go.

Shen Lingyue and the others hurriedly walked into the study, bowed down and said, "My subordinates see the city lord." ”

The city lord was on business at the moment, and a slight hum was considered a response.

Shen Lingyue and the others stood aside in an orderly manner.

The city lord suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining like lightning: "You two are nervous?"

Shen Lingyue's heart jumped, could it be discovered?

It wasn't herself who was worried, but Xuanyuan Xi.

She herself can use the demonic energy at will, but Xuanyuan Xi is different, he has completely suppressed his aura now, and then borrowed a little bit of the demonic qi from the guard.

It is not impossible to be seen by the lord of the castle.

Just when Shen Lingyue was stunned, Xuanyuan Xi bowed down and said: "The two subordinates have delayed the time for changing shifts, and they are afraid that the city lord will punish them, so they are a little nervous, please be aware of the city lord." ”

Shen Lingyue also hurriedly bowed down and said, "Please punish the city lord." ”

Although the city lord felt that the two people in front of him were a little strange compared to usual, but these two people had been with him for many years, and he was very familiar with their appearance, voice, and breath on their bodies, and he didn't feel any different from usual, so he didn't say anything more, and continued to lower his head to deal with business.

Shen Lingyue breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and finally survived the crisis safely.

She secretly glanced at Xuanyuan Xi and found that Xuanyuan Xi was no different from usual, and secretly said in her heart: This guy is so calm that he doesn't look like a person at all.

Shen Lingyue secretly looked at the city lord, who was a middle-aged man who looked to be about forty years old, with a handsome face.

This reminded Shen Lingyue that it was not a lie to say that the people of the demon race were generally more handsome than the human race, and the appearance of these demons they had seen was not bad.

It's just that Shen Lingyue has never seen what the strength of the city lord is, and he doesn't know how it compares to Xuanyuan Xi.

All she knew now was that their personal guards changed shifts every four hours, and now an hour had passed, and if they couldn't solve the city lord in the next three hours, they would have to wait until the next shift.

Shen Lingyue was anxious in her heart, but she didn't dare to reveal the slightest, this city lord was very sensitive, so she had to look at Xuanyuan Xi secretly.

Xuanyuan Xi seemed to be fine, just stood with his eyes and nose and mouth inquiring, and did not look in the direction of Shen Lingyue, so Shen Lingyue could only be in a hurry.

At this time, the city lord spoke: "How many years have you two followed the city lord?"

Shen Lingyue hurriedly bowed down and said, "Lord Hui City, the two of your subordinates have been following you since they came here. ”

The city lord nodded: "Over the years, this city lord has been good to you?"

Shen Lingyue said cautiously: "The city lord is very important to the two of his subordinates and takes good care of them. ”

The city lord continued, "What will happen to you if this city lord says that you are asked for help in something?"

Shen Lingyue pretended to be sincerely frightened and said: "Where did the city lord say, if you have something to order, your subordinates will definitely die after death." ”

At this time, the city lord raised his head and glanced at Shen Lingyue, with a look of approval on his face, obviously he was more satisfied with Shen Lingyue's answer.

The city lord then said: "There will be two spies entering here in the near future, and this city lord has increased his manpower to search for those two. ”

Shen Lingyue hurriedly said: "The city lord is wise, and he will definitely be able to catch those two soon." ”

The city lord said, "Then do you know who that spy is?"

Shen Lingyue hurriedly shook his head, "Although my subordinates don't know who those two are, as long as it is the order of the city lord, my subordinates will definitely follow it and never slack off." ”

Cheng Zhu said: "Actually, the reason why we are here, passed down from generation to generation, is mainly to wait for the arrival of those two. ”

Shen Lingyue was finally a little moved, it was completely for the two of them to come here, and it had been many generations, didn't this mean that they had been here for countless years?

Shen Lingyue was puzzled in her heart.

However, this time, the city lord obviously didn't mean to ask Shen Lingyue to answer, but said it himself.

"That's because these two people are related to the rise and fall of our demon race in the future. ”

"Back then, this was an ancient battlefield, the main battlefield of the war between humans and demons, although our demons later failed, but for the future of the demons, our ancestors also stayed here. ”

"Although the Terrans have defeated our demons, they are no longer able to expel us, so they sealed us to this place. ”

"And our ancestors originally had a way to leave and return to the Demon Clan, but because they knew a big secret, they finally decided to stay. ”

"As you must have guessed, it's for the sake of the two people who are about to appear today. ”

"After we capture those two, we can leave here and return to the demons. ”

Shen Lingyue pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Who are those two people who can make the ancestors make such a decision?"

The city lord said: "You may not have heard of it, but in fact, the city lord also knows it from the ancestors from generation to generation. ”

"In ancient times, there has always been a legend, that is, I don't know when there will be a person, if this person helps the human race, the human race will rise and the demon race will die, if you help the demon race, the demon race will prosper and the human race will die. ”

Shen Lingyue said: "Can you really believe this kind of words?"

The city lord said: "Actually, the ancestors didn't believe it at first, but later, our demon clan was arranged by ten people with high skills to set up the Heavenly Demon Peeping Array, and finally obtained a trace of heavenly opportunity, and those ten powerful clansmen suffered from the curse of heaven because of spying on the heavenly machine, and none of them survived." ”
