Isabel led Xi Yan into the hall, and on the main seat of the hall sat a very dignified man.

Immediately after entering the house, Isabel walked up to the man, bowed to the man very respectfully, and said, "Lord of the city, I am back." ”

The city lord nodded and asked, "This time your mission was completed quickly, did you encounter any trouble along the way?" ”

Isabel shook her head and chatted with the lord about the mission.

Xi Yan stood behind Isabel with his head down, and when he inadvertently looked up, he found that there was a person wearing a black cloak standing behind the city lord, if you could tell from the figure that this person wearing a black cloak should be a woman.

If it weren't for the inadvertent look up he had just now, he wouldn't have been able to find that there was still a person standing behind the city lord.

This person seems to be one with the air, and Xi Yan, who has been living in the place of survival for so long, has not noticed this person's breath at all.

This is not a dangerous place to hide your figure, and besides, this person should be the retinue of the city lord, not a secret guard, so there is no reason to hide his breath at all.

So from various aspects, this person should really not breathe, but if a person is not breathing, isn't it a dead person?

Although the survivors living in the land of survival have evolved and their physical qualities have improved, they have not yet reached the point where they do not need to breathe.

So there was a dead man standing behind the city lord?!

This discovery surprised Xi Yan very much, but fortunately, he was standing behind Isabel with his head down at the moment, so no one in the entire hall noticed his reaction.

In addition to the city lord, the woman, Isabel and him, there were only three people left in the entire hall who looked like stewards, who were supposed to be subordinates of the city lord.

Xi Yan could feel that the three people were looking at him, but at this moment, he had no way to carefully observe the situation around him, so he could only silently accept the gaze of the three people.

Fortunately, Isabel and the city lord didn't talk for long, and when Xi Yan focused on the conversation between Isabel and the city lord, he found that Isabel had finished talking.

"Lord of the City, do you remember Xi Yan who was wanted by you when you issued a bounty?" After Isabel finished talking about the task, she immediately mentioned the matter of Xi Yan.

The city lord was stunned for a moment when he heard this question, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he asked Isabel: "Didn't you catch him?" ”

"I think this person is very useful, and the city lord can cultivate it well, so I brought him here today." Isabel didn't hide anything and said Xi Yan directly.

Xi Yan, who was standing behind him with his head down, suddenly chuckled in his heart when he heard him say this, he thought that Isabel would be more tactful when she said this, but Isabel said it so directly.

The city lord was also surprised when he heard Isabel's words, but the people who could become the city lord were not ordinary people, so his surprise disappeared in just a second.

"You're saying you brought him here, and he's standing in this hall right now, right?" The lord asked.

Isabel nodded and added, "I know that you won't accept him so easily, but I have something here that I need to show you. ”

As she spoke, Isabel took out a small wooden barrel the size of a finger from her bosom and handed it to the city lord very respectfully.

The city lord took the small wooden barrel in confusion, then rubbed the end of his hand, and finally opened it on the side of the small wooden barrel, and took out a piece of paper from it.

When the lord saw the paper, he looked up at Isabel, then at the paper in his hand, and finally opened it under Isabel's signaling gaze.

After reading what was written on the paper, the city lord's face changed a lot, at first with doubt, then with calm, and finally with shock.

The city lord looked up at Isabel with a hint of excitement in his tone that could not be concealed, and asked, "What is written on this is true, where did you find this thing?" ”

"It's in a ruin, and in the process of carrying out my mission, I don't know what I touched, and I ended up going to another nameless place to survive, where there is a ruin, and this thing was found in the ruins." Isabel replied.

The lord of the castle laughed very happily when he received Isabel's answer, and then got up and walked up to Isabel. Very happily patted Isabel on the shoulder.

"Good! Hahahaha! Good! You tell me the location of the ruins, and I will send someone to continue to check, are there any other clues, this thing you found this time is very useful, by the way, what about Xi Yan? "The city lord looked very happy at the moment, as if he had encountered a very great joy in his life.

Isabel looked up at the city lord, without the slightest fear in his eyes, and replied, "Xi Yan is the one behind me. ”

With that, Isabel gave up her place and let the city lord see Xi Yan.

Isabel's sudden departure made Xi Yan a little nervous, the person he was facing at this moment was the city lord, the most powerful person in the entire survival place, not to mention what his ability was, but on the surface, he was the person with the most status in the entire survival place.

He is also the person who is most likely to be close to the truth behind it in the entire survival place.

Xi Yan lowered his head, he didn't hear the orders of the city lord and Isabel, and he never looked up.

"You are Xi Yan?" The lord asked.

Xi Yan nodded, but he hadn't looked up yet.

The city lord was very satisfied with Xi Yan's reaction and attitude, "You raise your head and I'll take a look." ”

After getting the city lord's words, Xi Yan raised his head, and when Xi Yan raised his head, the city lord saw her appearance, and immediately showed an unhappy look on his face.

But I don't know what the city lord thought, his face quickly returned to normal, but he wasn't as happy as he was just now.

"You look really good, a talent, since Isabel has already recommended you, you can stay, and you will follow Isabel in the future and let him train you well."

Xi Yan nodded, and then stood beside Isabel.

Isabel saw that the city lord had no intention of killing Xi Yan, so he said to the city lord: "Lord City Lord, I think it is better for you to train him personally, after all, he will be the right hand man for many years in the future, and no matter how much I train, it is not as good as you, Lord City Lord." ”

The city lord turned around and was about to leave, but when he heard Isabel's words, he rolled his eyes, and after thinking about it, he felt that it made sense.
