"Wait!" Yue Shen's voice came from behind.
Zhao Linchuan's footsteps paused. He stopped and turned around, only to see Yue Shen leaning against the spring wall with a faint smile on his lips and said in a gentle tone:
"You said you were passing through here on the run. With your strength, do you still need to run away?"
"Tell us where you escaped from."
Zhao Linchuan heard this and thought for a while, frowning slightly as if hesitating.
He lowered his head, looked at his toes, and clenched and unclenched his fingers slightly at his side, making an appearance of inner struggle.
After a moment, he raised his head, glanced back and forth between Yue Shen and Yan Fei, and then sighed, his tone was dull and low, as if he was recounting a past event that he did not want to recall.
"Hey, two girls, this is actually what happened..."
Zhao Linchuan adapted "Ten Thousand Year Plan" that happened in the future on the Douluo Continent with added details and told it with emotion and emotion.
He shaped himself into a mortal who fought against the gods, an ordinary cultivator who accidentally discovered the gods' conspiracy.
So he stepped forward and ran around, looking for like-minded partners to jointly fight against those gods who were aloof and regarded mortals as ants.
He spoke vividly, and when he got to the emotional point, his eyes turned slightly red and his voice trembled.
When he got to the intense part, his fists clenched and his veins popped out, as if those shameless gods were right in front of him.
And the reason why he came here was because he accidentally discovered a cross-border secret treasure that could cross the barriers of the world.
Under his emotional expression, Yan Fei slowly relaxed his vigilance.
The wariness in her eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a complicated look.
Even Yue Shen felt that he had misunderstood him.
She secretly glanced at Zhao Linchuan and thought to herself: 'This guy makes up stories without blinking an eye.'
A long time.
Zhao Linchuan finished the narrative slowly and took a long breath.
Then, he slowly lowered his head, remained silent for a moment, then took out a silver-blue and a vermilion robe from Storage Soul Tool, and gently placed them on the bluestone on the shore.
"Two girls."
Zhao Linchuan said in an apologetic tone, bowing slightly.
"This robe was originally intended to be given to my two ladies."
"I offended you two today, Zhao Quan should use it to apologize to you two."
He straightened up and glanced at their faces.
"Farewell!" After saying that, he turned and left.
"Wait! Are you just leaving like this?"
The voice of Yue Shen sounded again, crisp and loud.
Zhao Linchuan's figure paused momentarily, as if being pulled by an invisible rope.
He turned around and asked with confusion on his face, "What does the girl mean by this?"
"What do you mean?" Yue Shen explained in a gentle tone, "Since you bumped into us, it means that this is God's arrangement for us."
"Tiandao wants us sisters to help you."
"Yue Shen!"
Yan Fei turned his head suddenly, glared at Yue Shen, his eyes full of anger, and asked:
"What are you talking about? Have you forgotten how your Excellency Donghuang trained us?"
"Senior sister," Yue Shen said in a complicated tone, "Your Excellency, Donghuang, has never cultivated our people, but our talents."
"If you lost that cultivation talent, do you think Mr. Donghuang would still take a look at you?"
When she saw Yan Fei was silent, a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes, and she continued:
"I did my horoscopes and worshiped the moon yesterday, and I had anticipated today's scene in advance."
"What this young master said is true. According to the hexagrams, if the two of us sisters leave with him, it won't be long before we can break through the shackles and step into the realm of immortality."
As she spoke, she moved her eyes away from the water and landed on Yan Fei's face. Her lips moved slightly, and a voice as thin as a gnat came into Yan Fei's ears.
'Senior sister, you have already been seen by him.'
'If you don't let him give you an explanation, then what dignity do you have in this world?'
'Aren't you afraid that your state of mind will be damaged, that you will be unable to improve your strength throughout your life, and then be killed by those who come after you?'
Seeing that Yan Fei's expression was shaken, she continued to say:
'Senior sister, he just looked at you completely.'
'He saw everything that should be seen and what should not be seen.'
'If you don't leave him and ask him for a status, wouldn't you become...'
"You--! Shut up!"
As soon as these words came out, Yan Fei was immediately embarrassed.
She gritted her teeth and stared at Yue Shen with a look that wanted to eat her alive.
If looks could kill, Yue Shen would have died eight hundred times now.
But in the end, Yan Fei just turned his head to the side, lowered his head, stopped looking at Yue Shen, and stopped talking.
When Yue Shen saw this, a smile of success appeared on his face. The smile disappeared briefly and quickly subsided.
She cleared her throat and said calmly:
"This young master, my senior sister agreed."
"Take us back quickly."
"Being able to get help from these two girls is truly a blessing that Zhao has cultivated for ten lifetimes...!"
A long time.
Tianyang Ancient City.
This is a medium-sized city that is almost empty of people. The city gates are open, but there are few pedestrians.
The streets in the city are wide and deserted, and most of the shops on both sides are closed. The paint on the door panels peels off, revealing the blackened wood grain underneath.
Occasionally, a few wild cats jump down from the eaves, cross the streets silently, and disappear deep into the alleys.
There are no more than 10,000 households in the entire city, about 40,000 people.
Most of these people live in the old city in the east of the city, where the houses are densely packed, the lanes are narrow, and there is still some smoke and fire smoke.
The west and north of the city are almost empty cities. Large areas of houses are vacant. The yards are covered with grass. When the wind blows, they rustle, as if they are whispering something.
City Lord Mansion is located in the very center of the city and is the best-preserved building in the city.
The courtyard inside the mansion is deep and the pavilions overlap. Zhao Linchuan is currently standing in the lobby of the City Lord Mansion, introducing the situation here to Yan Fei and Yue Shen.
"This is a city that I won in a bet with Eight Great Families. Everything in the city belongs to me."
"Now I give them to the two girls, and they will use them as a place to stay."
"You want to give us this city?" Yan Fei asked in shock.
Her brows furrowed slightly and her lips opened slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she swallowed it back.
This is a city, not a house, nor a field, but a city!
There are people, shops, taxes, and troops in the city, which is an immeasurable wealth!
