Chapter 149: Conditions for Entering the Secret Realm

After being scolded by Xia Wuji, Xia Wu also calmed down a little. It's not wrong to see Ye Lingyu unpleasant, but he doesn't dare to make too much trouble in front of Nangong Yun and Xia Wuji. Xia Wuji is his father, of course he can't be disobedient, and Nangong Yun, Xia Wu has already regarded him as his father-in-law, so he naturally has to take care of the other party's face.

He sarcastically said Ye Lingyu's words, just to give the other party a warning, to warn this toad, don't count on swan meat.

Who are Shiyan and Shidie, that is the proud daughter of the sky, how can this person touch it. But as soon as he talked about this, Xia Wuqi didn't fight anywhere, and when he crossed the river, this man actually dared to hold the two sisters with those dirty hands. You know, those two jade people, but even he couldn't hug them. As soon as he thought of this, Xia Wu gritted his teeth in anger.

Xia Wuji apologized to Ye Lingyu a few times, and Ye Lingyu also casually coped with it. He didn't want to get involved in this dispute, and now he still has Xia Wuji, so he doesn't want to make the relationship too stiff, so he can only turn a blind eye.

He was generous, but in Xia Wu's eyes, he regarded this as weakness. The heart said that this man was nothing more than that, he was simply a timid and fearful lord, and I don't know why the sisters would allow this kind of man to get close to Fangze.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Nangong Yun continued: "Brother Xia, since this wind is coming, what do you think we should do?"

Xia Wuji lifted the teacup and took a sip of tea while pondering for a moment. His head was slightly lowered, his eyes rolled, and then he raised his eyebrows and looked at Nangong Yun: "What does Brother Nangong think?"

He didn't answer positively, but threw the question back, which really made Nangong Yun a little difficult. Nangong Yun is a little gentle by nature, usually others help him with advice, he rarely has the time to make his own decisions, but it is difficult to refute the other party, and he thought about it: "Brother Xia also knows that I am the most unassertive person, if I have to say, I think it is better to let the people of Loulan withdraw." Loulan is a small city, and the defenders are only eight hundred, if you want to resist the strong wind, even if there is a large protective array, it may be difficult to do it. ”

Xia Wuji's gaze was slightly cold for a moment, and then he smiled and said: "Brother Nangong's analysis is reasonable, there are indeed not many defenders in Loulan, there are eight hundred, and they have expanded by two hundred recently, making up a thousand, but it does seem a little insignificant compared to the wind." In this case, I will send people out to keep an eye on it, but if there is a strong wind, we will immediately reply to inform you, and it will not be too late for us to evacuate the residents. ”

"This ...... Do you want to evacuate people temporarily?" Nangong Yun was a little puzzled.

"Brother Nangong, don't get me wrong, I just don't want to cause panic. The wind is coming, but it doesn't know when. If he waits for a year and a half before he goes out, will we be terrified for a year and a half? In addition, I will notify several nearby cities and ask them to send troops to support. In short, Loulan is foolproof, so Brother Nangong doesn't have to worry about it. ”

Nangong Yun thought about it and felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded and acquiesced. He has never had his own opinions, as long as others have ideas, he will subconsciously do so.

At this time, Ye Lingyu reminded loudly: "Sending spies is indeed a way, but the wind masters are like clouds, if the strength of the spies is not enough, I am afraid that before the situation is discovered, it will encounter accidents." Asking for help from other city-states may seem fine at first glance, but it must be known that Tempest knows the desert better than anyone else, and must move very quickly. Therefore, it is better to notify as soon as possible, otherwise it may be too late. This is actually secondary, the most important thing is that now that the city of Sai'an has fallen, the people of the other cities are panicking, and I don't know if they are willing to send troops to support at this time. ”

Ye Lingyu had fought against the wind after all, and he also knew a little about the situation, so after listening to Xia Wuji's plan, he felt that it was full of loopholes.

Sure enough, after he put forward his opinion, Xia Wuji immediately sank his face, his eyes were a little surprised when he looked at Ye Lingyu, and at the same time, some unhappy emotions were mixed in.

Before he could speak, Xia Wu slapped the table and stood up, pointing at Ye Lingyu and scolding: "What are you, we are discussing the affairs of Loulan City, and it is your turn to intervene?" If you want me to see, yourself, you are a spy sent by the wind!"

When Ye Lingyu heard this, he slowly stood up, and seemed to be holding the teacup lightly in his hand, but the teacup suddenly cracked, and the tea flowed out and splashed all over the ground. The invisible coercion gradually pressed on Xia Wu.

"Xuan Jie!" Xia Wuji was taken aback. This young man who doesn't seem to be very old is actually a Xuan-level martial artist. You must know that in the entire Loulan City, there are only four Xuan Steps.

Without waiting for him to stop him, Xia Yuan next to him stepped forward first and blocked in front of Xia Wu.

"Shaoxia, just now my martial brother was presumptuous, his temper has always been a little hot, and I ask Shaoxia not to meet him in general. ”

Unlike Xia Wu, his elder brother Xia Yuan behaved unusually modestly and bowed deeply in front of Ye Lingyu.

Ye Lingyu originally had a wave of anger in his heart, but seeing Xia Yuan apologize like this, the anger in his heart gradually subsided. He sat back in his chair.

Xia Wu seemed to want to say something, but Xia Yuan covered his mouth.

"Alright, I'll leave the tempest to me for now, and then I'll arrange for all the people to take precautions. Xia Wuji sighed and looked away from Ye Lingyu.

Ye Lingyu put forward his opinion just now, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, he was the lord of the city, but he was denied by this kid one after another, and pointed out the problem one after another, and he couldn't hold his own face. Of course, it's not all about face, there are some other reasons to hide in his heart.

"City Lord Xia, I came here this time, and I have another matter I want to discuss with you. Ye Lingyu said.

"Oh? Xia Wuji motioned for him to continue.

"I want to go to the secret realm. Ye Lingyu was blunt.

Hearing this, Xia Wuji's face suddenly became solemn, and his eyes looked Ye Lingyu up and down.

"Where did you hear about the secret realm?" he asked solemnly.

The secret realm is one of the most important secrets of Loulan City, why did Ye Lingyu know this. Xia Wuji asked as he looked at Nangong Yun.

Nangong Yun hurriedly shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

"I don't have any comment for the time being, I just want to ask the city lord for a convenience. Ye Lingyu said.

Xia Wuji snorted coldly, who told Ye Lingyu, it was not clear at a glance. There are only a few people who know about this secret realm. One is their Xia family, and the other is the Nangong family, you don't have to think about it to know, it must be the daughter of the Nangong family who told this kid about it.

Could it be that the daughter of the Nangong family really had an affair with this kid? The secret realm is an important place in Loulan City, and she actually told this kid such a secret, and she really didn't treat him as an outsider.

Xia Wuji turned his back to Ye Lingyu, some thoughts were quietly brewing in his heart, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly turned around. walked over with a smile and patted Nangong Yun's shoulder: "Shaoxia, it's not that I don't open the door for you to be convenient, it's just that this matter is related to Loulan's secrets, and it's really a little difficult to do." ”

"Please also ask the city lord to be accommodating. ”

"Accommodating...... Well, in fact, it's not impossible, but this matter, I'm afraid it depends on Brother Nangong. ”

Nangong Yun was stunned for a moment and jumped up: "Look at me, look at me, I have nothing to do with this." ”

"Haha, I know, I know. Xia Wuji pressed him back into the chair hard, "I want to say that in terms of rules, outsiders are not allowed to enter and exit the secret realm, so naturally I can't make this exception for Shaoxia." But well, the rules are not immutable, Brother Nangong, do you remember, our garden party has not been compared this year. ”

When Nangong Yun heard this, he shrank back in fright.

"Garden party?" Ye Lingyu was suspicious.

"Haha, speaking of which, this is also my agreement with Brother Nangong a few years ago. Our Xia family and Nangong family, in order to promote each other's feelings, will hold a garden party every year, unite several nearby streets and courtyards, put flowers on them, and make a lively market, so that these young generations can also have a good time. Then on the day of the fair, we will hold a competition, and we will send three young people from each side to compete in three competitions: alchemy, formation, and martial arts. The winner can make a request to the loser, and the loser must do his best to meet it. ”

Ye Lingyu's eyes narrowed slightly: "The city lord doesn't mean ......"

"Hahaha. Xia Wuji laughed twice and patted Nangong Yun's shoulder hard, "If Brother Nangong wins, I can't agree to the request to enter the secret realm, and I don't violate the rules by doing so." Haha, it's Brother Nangong, it seems that you have been winning for the past few years, but I have been losing to you for many years. ”

"Good luck, good luck. Nangong Yun hurriedly smiled.

"Where is luck, your two precious daughters, Dan Dao and Array Dao, no one in the whole city can compare with them, I have been losing in these two games in the past few years. ”

Both of them laughed heartily, and it is unknown whether they were really laughing or pretending to be laughing.

Xia Wuji's words had already been made very clear, it was nothing more than wanting Ye Lingyu to exchange the victory of the garden fair for the conditions for entering the secret realm. But Ye Lingyu was a little puzzled, now that the enemy is present, how can this person still have the heart to do this. Even if you want to find yourself a step down, it's too far-fetched, and vaguely, I always feel that there is something inexplicable mixed in it.

Nangong Yun called Ye Lingyu: "Ye Shaoxia, look at this ......"

"Rest assured, rest assured. Xia Wuji walked to the center of the two and laughed, "Ye Shaoxia naturally agreed, didn't this just meet Ye Shaoxia's expectations." ”

Ye Lingyu thought about it for a while, and also said, "As long as you can enter the secret realm, I have no opinion." ”

Seeing that they all agreed, Nangong Yun had no choice but to nod.

He didn't pay attention to the requirements put forward by the winner in the end, and he didn't mention any conditions when he won a few years ago. It's just that this promise to go to the garden party, Shidie Shiyan will definitely be unhappy again, the two of them have always hated to get involved with the people of the Xia family. It's just that he's a father, and he doesn't know how to refuse people, and seeing that the other two have no opinions, he can only nod his head.

"Haha, Brother Nangong nodded, then it's no problem. Seeing that the time is also urgent, the garden will be scheduled in two days, what do you think?"

There is nothing to object to, Ye Lingyu was also in a hurry, of course, he also hoped that the sooner the better. On top of that, he was worried that the wind would come too quickly. If possible, he wanted to get his hands on the Mora Fruit as much as possible before the wind arrived.

After everything was agreed, Ye Lingyu and Nangong Yun left the City Lord's Mansion. There were only three people left in the house, the Xia family.

Since Nangong Yun left, the smile on Xia Wuji's face gradually converged, and finally even became gloomy and cold.
