Chapter 135: Night Talk
The City Lord's Mansion at night, under the hazy cover of the night, was like a fierce beast, quietly crawling in the center of Blackstone Town. Although it was late at night, the rows of delicately arranged lights kept shuttling in the mansion, and the elite guards holding the lights scanned back and forth in the dark places of the mansion with sharp eyes. If someone wants to sneak into the City Lord's Mansion quietly, I'm afraid it will be more difficult than ascending to the sky.
At this time, in a side room in the house, a woman in a light blue dress was sitting on a wooden bench. The decoration of the side room is very simple, compared to the other rooms of the city lord's mansion, it is undoubtedly much simpler, and the most gorgeous thing is probably a bronze mirror inlaid with gold edges.
The room is faintly fragrant, and the room is not outstanding, but because of the presence of this woman, there is an indifferent beauty.
At this moment, on the wooden table beside the woman, a neatly folded gorgeous wedding dress is placed on it. The color of the wedding dress is bright red like blood, the slightly exaggerated cuffs are inlaid with a layer of gorgeous gold edges, and in the center of the wedding dress, a graceful phoenix made of gold silk rust spreads its wings, adding a nobility to the gorgeous wedding dress.
The entire wedding dress was made of the most precious materials that could be found in Blackstone Town, and was processed by the best craftsmen in Blackstone Town for three days and nights, and the gold threads inlaid on it alone were worth more than 100,000 gold coins! Together with the other precious materials and the exquisite craftsmanship of the dressmaker, I am afraid that the value of this wedding dress will not be less than 600,000 gold coins! Such a terrifying amount of money is enough for those ordinary people to live a few lifetimes!
But at this time, this luxurious wedding dress looks different and dazzling in Yarui's eyes.
Ya Rui's hands were clenched, her beautiful eyes stared at the wedding dress coldly, her delicate and impeccable face, the previous indifference and tranquility had disappeared, and she was full of strange anger at the moment, remembering what her father suddenly said to her three days ago, she still felt cold.
"Marrying Yanagisawa?" she thought of the words that came out of her father's mouth, and she felt incredulous. At first, I thought her father was joking. After all, she knew that although Yanagisawa had always meant this, her father didn't say anything, but now, why did her father suddenly agree?
After a momentary blank in her mind, Yarui protested violently, but this did not change her father's mind, but rather annoyed him, and she was immediately placed under house arrest.
After being placed under house arrest, Yarui's heart completely cooled, and she knew that his father was really here this time!
"Knock knock!" A slight knock on the door interrupted Yarui's train of thought, her beautiful eyes moved to the closed wooden door, Yarui frowned slightly, and asked, "Who?"
"It's for the Father, Rui'er, for the Father's special visit to see you. The gentle voice of a middle-aged man soon came from outside the door.
Without waiting for Yarui to respond, the man pushed the door open and slowly walked in.
"Father, do you still have my daughter in your eyes?" looked at the majestic man who walked in slowly, the corners of Yarui's mouth curled slightly, and he sneered.
"What are you talking about! Since your mother died, I have not obeyed you in any way! I have taken care of you in every possible way, how can I not have your daughter in my eyes!" the city lord put away the majesty on his face and said a little helplessly.
Recalling the city lord's care for her in the past, the cold color of Yarui's pretty face also slowly converged, her beautiful eyes moved to the city lord, and Yarui begged: "Father, you have always obeyed me in the past, so why don't you rely on me again this time? I don't like Yanagisawa at all, and I don't want to marry him!"
"Everything else is up to you, but this one cannot. The city lord said very firmly: "Besides, Yanagisawa is not outstanding in terms of cultivation and appearance, which one is not outstanding? In the entire Black Stone Town, only he can be worthy of you!"
"He's the only one who deserves me? Hmph, you're just thinking about being the right person, it's true that the strength of their mercenary group is very strong, but the strength of our City Lord's Mansion is not weak!
"Their mercenary group?" The corners of the city lord's mouth curled up in a sarcastic arc when he heard this: "Rui'er, you are too underestimated as a father, the people of Blackstone Town think that Liu Dao is equal to me, but let me tell you, if I want to destroy the Blackstone mercenary group, it won't take more than a day!"
Yarui was stunned when she heard this, she knew that her father was a very serious person, and he would never say big things. And she usually doesn't care about her family's power at all, she didn't expect her family's power to be so strong!
"Since you look down on the power of their Blackstone Mercenary Regiment, then why do you insist on marrying me to Yanagisawa!" asked Yarui with a slight pursion of her red lips.
"With such excellent conditions as Rui'er, how can he be matched by the young leader of the little Blackstone Mercenary Regiment! What I fancy is his other identity. The city lord said lightly.
"Another identity?" Yarui wondered.
"Well, Rui'er, you should know about the Willow Dust Sect!" the city lord stared at Yarui and said, when mentioning the three words "Willow Dust Sect", the city lord unconsciously increased his tone, which shows that these three words must have an extraordinary weight.
"Liu Chenzong?" Yarui's face changed when she heard this, and after a while, she seemed to think of something, and exclaimed, "Could it be that the rumors I heard before are true?"
"Everything can't come out of nowhere, and since the rumors say so, there is naturally a certain basis. I can tell you for sure that this is indeed true. Flicking his cuffs with his hand, the city lord continued: "I have carefully observed Yanagisawa and found that he is not only outstanding in cultivation, but also outstanding in his heart and surname, if time comes, he will definitely be generous and glorious when he returns to the sect, and when the time comes, you will be in power, as his wife, you will also be above the world!"
Slender hands tugged at the corners of her clothes, and Yarui slowly digested the amazing news in her heart.
A hint of ridicule gradually appeared on her pretty face, and Yarui said: "No matter how noble his status is at that time, I am not rare at all! Even the most noble person in the world, if I don't like it, I will not marry! I just want to live a plain life!" The cold tone with indescribable resoluteness gently echoed in the quiet side room.
"Hmph, nonsense! Rui'er, you're already so old, and you're still so reckless. In this cruel world where the strong are respected, if there is no powerful person to protect you, with your outstanding appearance, I am afraid that it will be impossible to live an ordinary life!
"I don't care, if you insist on marrying me to Yanagisawa, then you can let him marry a corpse and go back!" Yarui said decisively.
Hearing Ya Rui's threat of death, a burst of anger suddenly surged on the city lord's face, and he said in a low voice: "It seems that you have really spoiled you all these years! It seems that you still remember that kid Lingkun in your heart!"
The faint two words directly made Yarui's delicate body tremble.
