The door of the retreat room slowly opened, and Li Shuidao walked out of the door, feeling the sunshine from the outside world, which was a kind of warmth that had not been seen for a long time.

The sun shone on his slightly pale face, and he squinted slightly, as if adjusting to this familiar and strange world.

The scene in the courtyard was different from the previous ones, and there was a coldness in the air, as if even the wind had stopped.

Why didn't Wan'er come to pick her up?

Li Shuidao's eyebrows frowned slightly, and a sense of uneasiness swelled in his heart.

He walked lightly to his bedroom, his fingers touching the door lock, the lock fell on its own, the wooden door creaked open, and the dusty air came to his face.

The house was covered with dust, and it was apparently uncleaned for a long time.

There weren't any valuables in the bedroom, just a clean change of clothes, all piled up in the closet.

When I opened the wardrobe, dozens of pieces of clothing were still there, and this thing was not worth anything to the monk, and no one would steal it.

Li Shuidao stretched out his hand and pressed these clothes, the space fluctuated and flickered, and dozens of clothes all disappeared.

Now his virtual realm has millions of acres, which can store any dead things, which is much more convenient than a storage bag.

No one cleans their room?

Isn't this Miao Dan Fang already abandoned?

How long have you been in retreat?

Three months, half a year, or a year?

Li Shuidao's doubts were even worse, and he slowly walked to the kitchen, where there was also silence. The fire had long since been extinguished, and the pots and pans were lying there quietly, as if to tell a wordless loneliness.

The entire Miao Dan Fang was shrouded in an eerie atmosphere, as if it had been forgotten by time.

Li Shuidao's heart became more and more uneasy.

Just then, he heard footsteps.

The person who came was a monk from the City Lord's Mansion, dressed in green clothes, with a carefully trimmed mustache, looking very energetic. There was a shrewdness in his eyes.

"Senior Li, the city lord is invited." The monk invited with a smile on his face.

A trace of doubt flashed in Li Shuidao's eyes, and then he asked, "As soon as I came out of the customs, the city lord already knew?" ”

The corners of the monk's mouth curled slightly, revealing an unfathomable smile: "In Xiantu City, the city lord is omnipresent and omniscient. ”

Li Shuidao was silent for a moment, his eyes deep. He knew that everything was under Wei Qiankun's nose, and it was impossible to run now, so he nodded.

"Senior Li, please come with me." The monk arched his hand, and then turned into a ray of light and flew into the air.

Li Shuidao followed, also stepping on the void.

In the fairy city, it is not allowed to fly at will, which is offensive to the city lord, but since the city lord invited, it is naturally not in this case.

The two flew away to the sky above Xiantu City.

At this time, the entire immortal city is in full view. High-rise buildings, Qionglou Yuyu, a prosperous scene.

Nothing has changed......

Only Miao Danfang has been abandoned.

"Senior Li, please come here." The monk snorted softly, and his body turned into a ray of light and fell into the courtyard of a huge building.

Li Shuidao followed, down-to-earth, and landed steadily in the courtyard.

In the courtyard, several ancient trees are towering, green bamboos are swaying, and a fresh breath is blowing in the face. In a corner of the courtyard, a maid is carefully tending to a white horse. The white horse is like jade, the hair is supple, and its species is the grassland heavenly horse in the Tuoba Wan'er Realm.

"The lord of the castle is waiting for you in the living room." The monk leads the way.

Li Shuidao nodded slightly, and walked towards the living room with the monk.

His eyes fell on the white horse, and he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.

At this time, Li Shuidao finally knew what the black old man meant.

Tuoba Wan'er's danger did not come from Jin Yunhe at all, but from the person she trusted.

Li Shuidao's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze was gloomy like water.

In the welcoming room, Venerable Qianyuan Wei Qiankun had been waiting for a long time.

He was dressed in a brocade robe, smiling, and a majestic and friendly temperament came to his face.

"Li Shuidao, you're finally here." Wei Qiankun stood up to greet him, with a hint of joy in his voice.

Li Shuidao arched his hand and said: "The Lord of Wei City is called, how dare you hesitate." ”

The two sat side by side, and Wei Qiankun sighed lightly: "The cultivation journey is extremely difficult. Xiantu City is now short of talents, and Li Xiaoyou can break through the pass and advance to the third order, which is really a great luck in the city. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Qiankun said with a smile on his face: "I invite you to come this time, I hope you can join Xiantu City, the old man intends to ask you to serve as the deputy city lord and assist me in managing Xiantu City, I don't know what you think?" ”

Hearing this, Li Shuidao didn't seem surprised, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "How long have I been in retreat?" ”

Wei Qiankun was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Li Shuidao to suddenly ask this, so he was also silent for a moment and said, "It's more than half a year." ”

"Have you been in retreat for so long...... No wonder ......" Li Shuidao sighed: "I wonder if the City Lord of Wei can tell Li where the other two deputy group leaders in Guicheng, Xie Qingyan and Tuoba Wan'er, are now?" ”

Wei Qiankun frowned, and then forcibly squeezed out a smile and explained: "The two of them have already gone to Penglai Immortal Sea to find the location of the Immortal Road Ancient City. This trip is full of dangers, and they are also thinking about the future of my Xiantu City, and I am afraid that they will not come back in a short time. ”

"Oh...... I originally wanted to say goodbye to Wan'er, but I really didn't expect it...... That can only be later. Li Shuidao said with a little regret.

"The ancient city of Penglai is submerged in the sea, and the exact location is difficult to find, but I believe they will definitely come back." Wei Qiankun said slowly.

"yes...... I believe it too. Li Shuidao nodded, and then said apologetically: "City Lord, your value, I, Li Shuidao, keep it in mind. But I'm afraid you don't know, I was originally the son-in-law of the Lan family of the Five Poison Sect, and my soul lamp has long been left in the Lan family. In order to break through the third-order realm, he has been traveling outside for six years. The last time I left the Immortal Path Secret Realm, Heihu Laosu invited me to leave with him, but at that time, I was worried about a breakthrough and wanted to wait until the realm was stable before making a decision. Now that I have successfully broken through the realm, it is time to return to the sect. ”

"Your soul lamp was left in the Five Poison Gate?" Wei Qiankun showed a look of surprise, and his elegant face first showed a look of struggle, and then turned into regret.

He sighed softly, "I see...... That's a bit of a pity. ”

Li Shuidao got up and clenched his fists and said: "I can successfully advance to the third order, thanks to the Tianji meteorite presented by the city lord, great kindness, Li is unforgettable." ”

Wei Qiankun waved his hand and smiled indifferently: "Such a trivial matter, why worry about it." Xiaoyou is polite. ”

"The kindness of the city lord, Li must keep it in mind. He will definitely visit Xiantu City again one day and embrace the kindness of adults. After speaking, Li Shuidao bowed deeply, and then turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the sky above Xiantu City.
