Time flies quickly, and today is the day to leave the Little Secret Realm.

No one had bothered Zhongli for the past two days, after all, he had already put the glazed tripod into the storage ring.

Except for the people of Su Yuan, no one knows who the bronze tripod is in its hands.

At this time, all the people who survived no longer looked for opportunities, because they were about to leave the small secret realm, and if they missed it, they could only wait for a year.

Seeing that the sun in the sky had risen to the top, Zhongli used his spiritual power to feel the sky and find the void passage, and this was the time for the Lord of Yan City to lead everyone back.

After a while, Zhongli felt the existence of the Void Passage, jumped upward, and entered the Void Passage.

After a short blank period, Zhongli returned to the outside of the Qingming City Lord's Mansion as he wished, where he had entered the Little Secret Realm.

The square outside the City Lord's Mansion was not as many people as Zhongli imagined, but there were quite a few, all waiting for their return.

"I'm finally back! This year's Little Secret Realm is too cruel, I don't know how many people have died in it!" Someone cried with joy, he saw many corpses, they were the dozens of monks that Zhongli had killed with the thunder of heaven that day.

"I have gained a lot in this year's small secret realm, and I can exchange it for ten years of cultivation resources!" Some monks were excited and found a lot of rare and exotic grasses.

"Acquire rare and exotic grass! A century-old brand, all the monks who came out of the small secret realm have seen it, the children of this store are not deceived, and the price is clearly marked!"

"The time for a stick of incense has almost passed in the small secret realm, why did so many people come out, is the competition in the small secret realm so fierce this year?"

"The time is almost up, all the people from Su Yuan have come out, and a few people from the Sun Moon Alliance and the Biyun Sect have also come out, why haven't the people from the Heng Dao Sect seen any of them. Someone screamed.

He found that the Void Passage of the Small Secret Realm was about to close, and no one from the Hengdao Sect came out, guessing that the people of the three major sects were fighting inside.

The square outside the City Lord's Mansion was noisy for a while.

Zhongli saw countless people surrounding them, some inquiring about the news in the small secret realm, some buying items, Zhongli quickly blended into the crowd and disappeared.

Su Yuan and the others have been together in this trip to the small secret realm, and they have never acted alone, and they are the only team that has returned with all their members, but they have not gained anything.

"Lord Cao Ying, he was there, he ran away!" Someone with sharp eyes found Zhongli's location, saw him flash into the crowd, and just wanted to chase him out, he was pulled back by Cao Ying.

"Stop chasing!" Cao Ying saw that there were still a few companions who wanted to catch up, so she spoke in time and shouted to stop them.

"Why is this?" some people were puzzled, not knowing why Cao Ying stopped them.

"Have you seen him holding a bronze tripod? Besides, no matter how you catch up, you can't beat him. After Cao Ying finished speaking, she touched the index finger of her right hand, which originally had a storage ring.

For some reason, she had hidden it for Zhongli, as if she was afraid that everyone would go looking for him.

"It's strange why Deacon Su has not been sent to pick us up this year. Mao Kai said suddenly.

Everyone who still had questions was stunned when they heard this.

Everyone looked around, and indeed did not find any Su Yuan people, Su Luoke said that he would come to pick them up in person.

When everyone was looking for Su Luo's figure, they found that many people around them were looking at them, pointing and pointing, and faintly felt that something seemed to be wrong.

"Let's go back to Su Yuan first!" Cao Ying snorted coldly, and took the lead in rushing out of the crowd and heading towards Su Yuan, she felt as if something had happened.

The City Lord of Yan watched Cao Ying lead the people of Su Yuan to leave, and did not stop him, nor did he take the initiative to inform him of what had happened.

He has the same attitude towards the three sects and does not help each other.

On that day, Ning Tian asked him to go and inform Shangguan Yaowen to meet him, and the guards he sent came back to report and found that the Hengdao Sect's residence was empty, and even the Biyun Sect's residence had been emptied.

He was completely sure that the two sects had joined forces, and now that Qingming City no longer had any power from the three sects, it was too late for him to be happy, so naturally he would not meddle and meddle in his affairs.

Ning Tian is the envoy of Yanji City, and this kind of thing to maintain order in Fengzhou should have been done by her personally.

The Lord of Yan City didn't care about the Demon Cultivator, at least for now, the Demon Cultivator hadn't caused substantial damage to his Qingming City, thinking that it would be good to leave this kind of matter to Ning Tian to deal with.

Yan Cheng's main thing is to dominate the party, he doesn't want to care about these major events in the world, he just wants to be the emperor of the soil in his Qingming City.

He went through a lot of trials and tribulations before he got to the position of the city lord of Qingming City, and he just wanted to enjoy it. Now that Sanzong has left Qingming City, he has to redraw the rules and strive for more benefits for himself.

......

After Zhongli blended into the crowd, he immediately left the square outside the City Lord's Mansion, and he captured the matter of Liuliding in the small secret realm, and there were many people's affections, but fortunately, no one chased after him.

He found the inn that Lu Chen had arranged for him before, and after entering, he changed back to his appearance, and then he was completely relieved, there were many monks in Qingming City who were stronger than him, and he had to be cautious.

Zhongli waited in the room for a while, and someone knocked on the door, and Zhongli knew that it was Lu Chen who came.

This was what they had agreed before, after he came out, Lu Chen would come to look for him. But when he opened the door and saw that it was not Lu Chen, he couldn't help but tense his nerves and stepped back to guard against it.

"Who are you?" Zhongli whispered, frowning.

Outside the door was a burly middle-aged man.

"Little brother, don't get me wrong, it was Young Master Lu Chen who asked me to come to look for you, and it is inconvenient for him to show up now. The middle-aged man hurriedly explained that he did not enter the room to avoid Zhongli's misunderstanding.

"Did something happen? Where is he now?" Zhongli didn't let his guard down, the bronze tripod was in his hand, and he had to be cautious.

The middle-aged man didn't answer, but first released a bit of spiritual power fluctuations, allowing Zhongli to feel his realm.

Yuan Martial Realm Fourth Order! Zhong was startled, his eyes narrowed, he understood

The middle-aged man meant that this was to let Zhongli know that he had no malicious intent.

"You come with me, it's inconvenient to reveal where Young Master Lu Chen is. As for what happened, after you meet, Young Master Lu Chen will personally explain it to you. The middle-aged man made a gesture of please, motioning for Zhongli to follow him.

Zhongli hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and motioned for the middle-aged man to lead the way.

After the middle-aged man saw that he had persuaded Zhongli to trust, he smiled and nodded, and walked out first, leaving his back to Zhongli, completely defenseless, which also made Zhongli feel a little more at ease.

Looking at the back of the middle-aged man, Zhongli couldn't help but wonder, he called Lu Chen a young master, obviously treating himself as a subordinate, and couldn't help but wonder how Lu Chen accepted such a strong man as a servant.

After the middle-aged man and Zhong Li left the inn, they got into a carriage, and the big man was talking the whole time, and Zhong Li replied without a word.

Before seeing Lu Chen, he would not let down his guard, after all, the bronze tripod was too important, and he was worried about the traps set by the Three Sects or the Sun and Moon Alliance.

After about half an hour, the carriage finally stopped, and the middle-aged man jumped out of the carriage first, followed by Zhongli.

Zhongli found that it had already left Qingming City, but it was not far away, and it was a courtyard in the suburbs.

The courtyard has a high foyer and a grand gate, and at first glance it is not a courtyard that ordinary monks can live in.

"Little brother, go in by yourself, Young Master Lu Chen is waiting for you inside. The middle-aged man said with a smile.

Zhongli was a little puzzled, the middle-aged man had never called his name from beginning to end, guessing that Lu Chen hadn't told him?

But now that he was here, Zhongli didn't squirm anymore, and pushed the door in by himself, leaving the middle-aged man to guard outside.

Zhongli walked in, the yard was very large, real stone rockery, fish pond flowing water, picturesque, but the front yard was empty.

Zhongli didn't have the artistic conception to enjoy the scenery, and walked straight forward, looking for Lu Chen.

Zhongli walked through a dark bluestone floor to the main house in the courtyard, and he saw several people sitting in the room, seemingly deliberating. And Lu Chen and the head of the Lu family are also among them.

Lu Chen's eyes lit up when he saw Zhongli standing at the door, and he quickly got up and hurriedly walked towards Zhongli.

"Brother Zhongli, you can be counted as back!You may not know that a major event happened in Qingming City a few days ago!" Lu Chen laughed, holding Zhongli's shoulders with both hands, his eyes full of joy.

"What happened in Qingming City, Brother Lu Chen, is this a discussion?" Zhongli said, reminding him that everyone in the room was watching them, and secretly asking him if he needed to avoid it.

"It's okay, it's okay, Brother Zhongli will come in and talk about it. Come on, hurry up and serve tea!" Lu Chen took Zhongli's arm very intimately and entered the house, and then shouted outside.

"Who is this, our family is discussing matters, how can outsiders be allowed to enter!" someone said dissatisfiedly when they saw Lu Chen invite Zhongli into the house.

Zhongli looked at the voice, the person was somewhat similar to Lu Chen, but he was much older, and guessed that it was probably someone like Lu Chen's uncle.
