Chapter 202: Deliberately making things difficult

The young man didn't pay attention to Tingxue's embarrassment, looked at Li Leng and said, "However, if you come to beg me, maybe my heart will soften and I will agree to help you......?" Will you beg me?" The smile on his face became even brighter, and a pair of bright eyes looked at Li Leng motionlessly.

Li Leng didn't bother to pay attention to the young man's provocation, and said to Tingxue, "Let's go!" After speaking, he took Tingxue's hand and left.

The young man looked at the backs of Li Leng and Tingxue as they gradually moved away, and the old woman who had been following him came over and said softly: "Young master, I have asked people to check this person, and the strange thing is that our people can't find this person at all." There is no trace of him even in reincarnation. Seems...... He is not from this world. ”

The young man turned around suddenly, looked at the old woman in surprise, frowned tightly, and said in shock: "How can this be? I always have an ominous premonition that the existence of this person is a very great threat to our underworld. ”

"Yes, young master, I will definitely strictly order the people below not to let go of the slightest trace, and be sure to find out this person. The old woman bowed and said softly.

......

Walking to a secluded street, Tingxue gently broke free of Li Leng's hand, her face was flushed, and she said, "You...... Aren't you afraid of offending that young city lord by doing this?"

"If you don't do this, do you think that young city lord will help us?" Li Leng asked without answering.

Tingxue was stunned, shook her head slightly, and said, "I can see that the young city lord is watching our jokes, and he won't really help us at all." ”

Li Leng nodded and said, "You're right. Ever since we entered the Styx to catch fish, he has been watching us laugh and see how desperate we are. Hehe, it's just that he didn't expect that we would catch so many dark fish in the end, which made him feel like he couldn't get off the stage. Be careful, this boy, he's not easy to deal with. ”

Tingxue nodded and said, "Then what should we do next?" involuntarily regarded Li Leng as the backbone, and immediately asked Li Leng's opinion when he encountered difficulties.

Li Leng said: "Find a place to live first, this matter is not so simple, you have to be fully mentally prepared." ”

Listening to Xue's "um", he nodded, and found an inn with Li Leng to live in.

After that, Tingxue prepared a prayer post and handed it over to the steward of the city lord's mansion, saying that he had come to meet the city lord on the order of the empress and took the order.

The steward went in for more than half an hour before he walked out slowly and said to Tingxue: "The city lord said that since it is on the order of the empress, there should also be the empress's holy decree, and without the empress's holy decree, the city lord will not issue a general order." "Ask Xue if she has any decree from the Empress, and if she has, she will take it out immediately.

Listening to Xue was speechless, this time the empress only gave an oracle, and did not issue a holy decree to her. What's more, Loulan City is far away from the Underworld, and she doesn't know how long she will have to delay back and forth. For a while, Tingxue was a little anxious, and said to the steward: "Please inform the city lord, this time it is the empress's edict, and there is no holy decree written in black and white." So, we don't have any divine decree at hand. ”

"Oh, that's no decree. The steward sneered and said, "You said that the empress has an edict, what evidence is there to prove it? Our city lord's mansion has not received any orders from any members of the imperial family, and the edict you said does not exist at all. I'm sorry, this can't help you, and I ask you to leave immediately. I won't let you in without the Queen's decree. After speaking, let people come to listen to Xue and Li Leng.

If you don't give up listening to Xue, you can't see the city lord, and you can't get the general order, so you can't enter the burial place and find out the truth about what happened a few days ago. She pressed the butler's arm and said a little pleadingly: "Please tell the city lord again, the empress has really given an edict, the matter is very urgent, and we don't have time to go back to Loulan City to ask the empress for the holy decree." Please tell the lord of the castle that we have brought some gifts to the lord of the castle. ”

"It's useless what gifts you bring, the city lord doesn't have anything, will he take a fancy to your gifts? "The steward is still impatiently pushing Tingxue out of the City Lord's Mansion.

"What if it's a stygian fish?" exclaimed Yuki.

The steward's movements stopped, it was the city lord's beloved thing, and besides, the city lord's cultivation had been stuck in one realm for hundreds of years, if there were enough dark fish, his cultivation could break through and enter a new realm.

"How many do you have? Not fifteen, don't open this mouth. The steward looked at Tingxue in disbelief and asked.

Hearing that Xue was about to speak, Li Leng grabbed her and took the first step to speak: "Give thirty first, if the city lord sees us, then offer the remaining dark fish." ”

"Thirty Stygian Fish?" said the steward, his eyes lit up, "Okay, bring the Stygian Fish, and I'll inform you again." ”

Tingxue hurriedly took out thirty dark fish, which made the steward speechless in shock. He ran in with thirty dark fish, and this time, only a quarter of an hour, he walked out and said to Tingxue: "The city lord is very satisfied with the gift you gave, and in three days, you can come to the city lord's mansion." ”

"The city lord would like to see us?" asked Tingxue in surprise.

The steward said: "The city lord only let you come for three days, as for whether you see it or not, then I don't know." ”

The city lord asked them to come over for three days, indicating that there was still a possibility of seeing them, listening to Xue was ecstatic, seeing that things had taken a turn for the better, a heart slowly put down, gave the steward some pills and spars, and said with great gratitude: "Thank you, three days later, we will come over on time." ”

The steward accepted it unceremoniously, turned around and went back to the mansion, regardless of whether Tingxue understood the meaning of his words or not.

The two of them returned to the inn, and listened to Xue Huan and said: "Three days later, the city lord summoned us, and I will send other dark fish in exchange for a general order, it should not be much of a problem." ”

"I don't think it's that simple. Li sneered and shook his head, and said, "I'm afraid that the city lord only wants to get the dark fish in your hand, and doesn't want to give you a general order!"

Hearing Xue's surprise, he said, "It's just a general order, it's not a big deal." When we enter the burial ground, we are only investigating the truth of the matter, which will not offend him, nor will it harm the interests of the underworld!"

Li said coldly: "What you think is just what you think, and it doesn't mean that others do it." It's better to be careful, I'm afraid things are not that simple. ”

Listening to Xue, she didn't believe Li Leng's analysis, and thought that Li Leng must have thought too much, how could the city lord of the underworld deal with her, the patriarch of the little demon clan.

Li Leng sighed and didn't explain much.
