The sharp tip of the sword pointed straight at the throat, as if the slightest movement would leave a bright red blood mark.

However, even in the face of such a sharp edge, the look of surprise suddenly turned into a helpless smile.

"Lu Yu, it seems that only you will be my most difficult enemy."

The figure in front of the tip of the sword blurred, turned into a blooming peony, and immediately withered to the ground.

"Originally, I thought that when I came to Chang'an, it would be Di Renjie's guy who would give me a headache."

Ming Shiyin's voice appeared behind him, and Lu Yu slashed away with his sword, but the cyan sword shadow smashed the vase on the table, but it didn't touch the ethereal body.

"However, you are the only one who can come out of my illusion again and again, Lu Yu."

"However, since you have sworn to be my enemy, you will soon see how far this world of lust and desire will swell......"

"By that time, I will be the new Creator, hehe......"

The ethereal and terrifying voice echoed in his ears, the room had become empty, only Lu Yu was left, and Ming Shiyin was long gone.

Pretending to be a ghost......

Slandering in his heart, Lu Yu broke out of the door.

However, what he saw in front of him was not what he saw through the window————

The peony that was originally in full bloom has all withered and withered, and the delicate purple has completely turned into a dead gray black, as if symbolizing destruction.

The surroundings are no longer elegant, but suffocatingly hopeless.

And the four of Pei Baohu's grandsons, who were supposed to stay in the courtyard, were gone.

Everything is like a dream, illusory and illusory, making it difficult to distinguish.

However, what Ming Shiyin said before leaving just now made Lu Yu fall into deep thought.

A new creator?

Ming Shiyin, what is your purpose......

......

"Knock ————"

There was a loud knock at the door of the shop, and the shopkeeper lifted his head from the counter with some impatience, shouting "It's coming", and complaining about who had picked such a good time to come to the door during the lunch break.

"Hey, can you watch for a while, it's only ...... now"

The words of complaint had barely popped out of his mouth, and when the serious face appeared in front of him, the shopkeeper shut up.

Di ...... Master Di? What is the wind that blows you here? I don't think I did anything......"

Out of fear of the sheriff, the shopkeeper's body and voice trembled.

"Excuse me, do you see Yuan Fang?"

The judge's face, which had always been solemn and impersonal, was now frowning tightly and with a sad face.

Even...... There is also a thick sense of self-blame.

"Yuan Fang? Who is Yuan Fang? ”

Seeing that Di Renjie didn't seem to be here to investigate his tax evasion, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and asked reassuringly.

"The little henchman who has been following me is a half-breed demon mouse, he has two cute big ears, about this tall."

Roughly comparing Li Yuanfang's figure, Di Renjie said.

"I haven't seen it."

I hadn't even heard of the name Li Yuanfang, and the shopkeeper replied without hesitation.

However, even if he saw it, he didn't plan to tell Di Renjie.

"Excuse me."

After bowing apologetically, without waiting for the shopkeeper to close the door, Di Renjie closed the door himself.

"Cut, this guy, just because he killed a demon seed that broke into Chang'an City the day before yesterday, he is probably going to be arrogant now."

Because his tax evasion was always detected by Di Renjie, the shopkeeper has always held a grudge against him, and he is deeply disgusted by his law-first justice.

Obviously, there are many people like himself like scattered sand in the desert, and it can be said that Chang'an City abounds.

However, Di Renjie uses the righteous creed he believes in, even the sand hidden in the shadows will be pulled out one by one.

"What a loyal dog of the Empress, hehe."

opened the door and secretly looked at Di Renjie's somewhat inexplicable figure under the sunset, and the shopkeeper couldn't help but spit like a minister in the court, and secretly sneered.

At this time, even though he knew that he might have been coldly looked at and ridiculed, Di Renjie was still walking alone in the sunset.

The lonely shadow was pulled by the reflected orange sunset.

"Yuan Fang, where are you......"

His tired shoulders relaxed, and Di Renjie wanted to find a place to rest, because he had almost covered the entire Chang'an City.

However, obsessive-compulsive disorder and strong self-blame in his heart did not allow him to stop himself.

I didn't expect that as a sheriff, I would feel a headache because of things other than crime.

"Master Di, I'm sorry, I've ...... I don't have the determination to spread your justice all over Chang'an City with you anymore......"

The rain became very heavy, and even became surging, so that Di Renjie couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain that was rushing in Li Yuanfang's eyes.

However, it was the first time he had been so angry with himself.

Maybe...... This is also the last time.

His voice was close to despair and collapse, like the demon seed that he had slain, emitting the sorrow of his last life.

This is also the first time Di Renjie feels overwhelmed.

The brain, which has always been thinking clearly, is short-circuited at this moment.

Thinking that his subordinates were just having a temper with him, when Di Renjie wanted to use his high salary to try to persuade Li Yuanfang, he had already disappeared into the heavy rain.

There seemed to be a heartstring broken in his heart, and when Li Yuanfang really disappeared from his sight, Di Renjie panicked.

Even the matter of killing the demon seed was not immediately reported to the empress, and the corpse of the demon seed was still discovered by Cheng Yanjin and Shangguan Wan'er after the sky was clear, and Di Renjie immediately ran through the entire Chang'an City with an unprecedented speed.

He had no other ideas, he just wanted to find Li Yuanfang.

The pleading compassion in Li Yuanfang's eyes, as well as the determination not to be afraid of death before the demon seed was killed......

No, that's the Demon Seed, it's an unforgivable life!

But...... A life of sorrow, and a plea of compassion.

His brain began to become more and more confused, and Di Renjie's fist slammed into the stone wall beside him.

Although blood seeped from his fist, Di Renjie didn't seem to feel pain, and at this moment, there was only a painful and anxious expression on his face.

"Huaiying."

A breezy voice sounded behind him, and Di Renjie didn't look back, still clenching his fists.

"What are you doing here?"

Li Bai slowly walked from behind him, and twisted out the willow leaf in his mouth, with a resolute look in his eyes.

"I'll help you find the little rat together."
