"I hope the king will forgive me...... We will atone for our sins......"

"Yes, I hope the king will spare our two brothers...... Our two brothers will ...... in the future."

The two protectors still did not let them go between the words of the Demon Emperor Nine-Tails, and sat on the ground and kowtowed to the Nine-Tails to ask for the master's forgiveness.

The Nine-Tails stood up and stepped forward towards the two protectors, who became even more nervous and stepped back. The Nine-Tails had already revealed a fierce light, one hand was raised, the demons looked at it without saying a word, and a black air mass emerged from the palm of the Nine-Tails that was about to hit the head of one of the protectors, and the protectors instantly buried their heads on the ground and shouted.

"Don't!

Interrupted by a sudden shout, the Nine-Tails lowered the hand he had raised, and the air mass disappeared with it.

"Shuo Lang, don't kill indiscriminately!"

At this moment, a girl who looked like a ten-year-old girl in pink clothes appeared on the main hall, her long black and bright hair was like flowing water to her waist, but her pink cheeks could not hide a trace of sickness, the girl walked in front of the demon emperor Nine-Tails, and looked at Nine-Tails' eyes with pleading.

"Why are you here, this seat...... Didn't I tell you to rest?"

Nine-tails brushed the woman's long hair, looking at the woman's eyes from time to time showing a trace of tenderness, as the lord of the demon world, the nine-tails should have called themselves 'this seat', but when I saw this woman, I also became 'me'.

"I was resting in the room at your word, but when I heard a noise, I asked a guard, and the guard told me what treasure was stolen, and I heard that you killed a Dharma protector, and I didn't want you to kill it again, so I ran over......," the girl said, and her eyes welled up with tears.

The Demon Emperor Nine-Tails was a little distressed when he saw the girl's expression like this, and his cold and arrogant heart was softened by this girl, and the Nine-Tails wiped away the tears between the girl's eyes with one hand and helped her to the throne and sat down.

"Okay, I promise you won't kill them. Nine-tails looked at the girl and said softly.

Hearing Nine-Tails' words, the girl nodded and felt reassured, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Today, Miss Zilan intercedes for the two of you, and the treasure has been recovered, so I will let you go first and will not be held accountable!" said Nine-Tails to the two Dharma Protectors who were kneeling on the ground.

"Thank you for the king's grace not to kill, we will definitely make up for it......"

As soon as the two Dharma Protectors heard that the Nine-Tails would no longer kill them, they knelt down and bowed vigorously.

The Nine-Tails turned his head and looked at Zilan sitting on the throne affectionately, and gently picked her up, and the demons stood in two rows and watched the two leave the Demon King Palace......

Outside the gates of Haoyue City

"Senior brother, wait for me, where are we going now?" asked a young girl

"Senior sister...... If we want to go to Pontoon Town, we must pass through Haoyue City, so we naturally go to Haoyue City in front. The young man, who was called a senior brother by the girl, replied patiently.

"Well, why can't we fly with Edgeworth? Wouldn't that save effort and time, people can't walk......" The girl said with some grievances.

"Senior sister, can't you say a few words?" Master made it clear before we left that we had to walk to prevent demons, have you forgotten?" replied the young man with a frown.

Seeing that her senior brother was a little unhappy, the girl stopped talking, but just pouted, and the two of them walked towards Haoyue City one after the other, both wearing the clothes of the Xuantian Sect, and each carrying a long sword on their shoulders.

When the two came to the gate of the city, they saw that the gate was full of people, standing in an orderly row.

"Come here!"

Seeing that there were many gatekeepers standing at the gate of the city who were checking this group of people, the young man was very puzzled, thinking that he didn't know what was going on, in the past, Haoyue City was a very prosperous place, and passing merchants and merchants could enter and exit freely, why did they have to check one by one before they could enter when they saw it today.

"Senior brother, don't you think it's strange?, why don't we go up and ask?" said the girl mischievously, pulling the young man's sleeve.

The boy gently shook off the girl's hand and shook his head to signal no, but the girl saw that the boy did not agree, and stomped her feet angrily, until there were fewer and fewer people in front of them at the door, and finally it was their turn.

"Big brother, I want to ask when it happened in this city, and why do you want to check it today?" asked the young man as he stepped forward to one of the gatekeepers.

"Who are you!, if you want to enter, don't ask if you don't dare to ask!" said the doorkeeper unceremoniously.

"We are from Xuantian Sect! Don't you see the clothes we are wearing! Why are you uncultivated and not polite at all!"

The girl saw that the gatekeeper was talking so domineeringly, and he was talking to her senior brother like this, and she was already very unhappy when she wasted a lot of time in order to queue up to enter the city, but now she was even more angry, and she stepped forward to scold, and the young man couldn't dissuade her from the side.

"What Xuantian Sect? I've never heard of it! The little girl looks very cute, but her anger is not small, if you dare to make noise again, don't blame Uncle Ben for being unkind to you!" said the doorkeeper as he looked like he was going to beat someone.

"Presumptuous, what are you going to do? Don't let me back down yet!"

At this moment, a man dressed like the gatekeepers came from inside the city to the gate. When he walked in, this person had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he had a beard, and he should have been the commander of these gatekeepers. The person who was gearing up just now saw that this person stopped gnawing and immediately stepped aside.

"Hahahaha! I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, these people don't know that the two of them are from the Xuantian Sect, and they are offended, and ......they forgive me," the bearded man said very politely, glaring at the man just now as he spoke.

"It's just a misunderstanding, please don't be surprised, may I ask you ......," the young man replied.

"The villain is the housekeeper of this Haoyue City, and his name is not worth mentioning, if the young man doesn't mind, call me Lao Cai. The housekeeper Lao Cai replied with a smile.

The young man asked if anything was going on in the city, but Lao Cai didn't answer, only said that he would follow him. Then the housekeeper Lao Cai introduced the two into Haoyue City, the two brothers and sisters followed Lao Cai and observed the surroundings from time to time, the city was very lively, there were restaurants and teahouses on both sides of the street, the sound of selling continued, pedestrians came and went, and there were children playing on the side of the road, which was really prosperous. The girl wearing the costume of Xuantian Sect had long forgotten that she had quarreled with the gatekeeper before, but she also smiled at this moment.

The housekeeper Lao Cai took the two to a mansion and stopped, turned around and introduced to the two: "This is the residence of my city lord, let the two of you go in with me." ”

There are two stone lions set up in front of the mansion, which is enough to make people daunted, and the gate is engraved with the three big characters of 'Shangguan Mansion', and the young man thinks that the owner of this house must be surnamed Shangguan. I wanted to ask the housekeeper Lao Cai again, but he didn't answer, and now he is brought here again, there must be a hidden secret, so it is better to follow him in and have a look.

Lao Cai buckled the door bolt, the door was opened, and two family members walked out of it. Lao Cai turned around and led the two behind him into the mansion. The rooms between the mansions are separated by rooms, there are several bird cages hanging on the eaves, and there is a small garden in the middle, the space is quite large, the girl always likes to look around every step she takes, and the housekeeper Lao Cai takes the two to a room, as if to receive guests.

"The two of you will sit here for a while, and the villain will go and invite my master. The housekeeper Lao Cai said politely.

The boy and the girl sat down, looking at the furnishings in the room, there were a few calligraphy and paintings hanging in the hall, it seemed that the owner of the house was also a lover of calligraphy and painting, the boy looked at those calligraphy and paintings, only the girl was very bored.

At this moment, two people came from outside the door, one was the housekeeper Lao Cai, and the other was a young man, who was dressed quite gorgeously, wearing a purple and gold crown, a white robe, a belt inlaid with gems, and two agate rings on his hands, but a little sickly. The housekeeper Lao Cai helped the white-clothed man into the house and sat down slowly.

"Two, this is my master, the city lord of Haoyue City. Lao Cai introduced with a smile.

"The city lord is so young, which is really admirable to the poor road. The boy stood up and returned the salute.

Seeing that the city lord of Haoyue City turned out to be a young man in his early twenties, it really surprised the two people present, and the girl standing on the side was also stunned.

"Hehe, under the ...... Shangguan Lingyun has seen two young heroes of Xuantian Sect in Xia, and they are sick in Xia, if there is any rudeness, I still forgive me, I don't know what to call the two?" Shangguan City Lord sat and said.

"Shangguan Gongzi is serious, Li Zixiu of the Poor Dao Xuantian Sect, this is the junior sister of the Poor Dao......"

"My name is Lan Xin'er, hehe. ”

It turned out that the young man was Li Zixiu, Li Zixiu was interrupted by his junior sister while he was talking, but he couldn't do anything about her, so he could only give her a blank look, Lan Xin'er made a playful grimace at Li Zixiu, which made Li Zixiu a little embarrassed.
